THE
FARMERS WIFE

Here in America when our boys
and girls are learning some foreign
language in high school, the seq
tences they're given to translate
into English are something simple
or non-controversial, but it's not
that way in Russia. In one of their
English language textbooks it says
children in United States do not
know what they want to do after
they graduate from school, wait
er's or street cleaners job is all
they can hope for in capitalistic
country. Russia is the only state
in the world where universal edu-
cation has been realized
How else can the people in Rus
sia feel about us when even the
children are taught such things, a
child's mind naturally accepts any
thing in a textbook as being the
truth. Don't you think it's def
mite sign of four superiority that
our education don't resort to such
tactics to get our boys and girls to
hate the people of another nation,
or to so misunderstood their way
of life?
However, there is one phase of
life here in the United States that

the Communists could certainly
take advantage of as far as propo
ganda purposes are concerned, and
they probably do. That is this mat
ter of racial segregation in public
schools. Isn't is shameful - the
attitude of some communities? A
certain school in Illinois had been
closed, and officials were afraid
to reopen the school because of
the threat of a riot The good
townspeople had threatened to
take all sorts of drastic measures
to keep eleven young colored peo-
pie out of the local high school,
they were even talking about
lynahings.
Last night on the news broad
cast on T.V. a neWsreel was shown,
taken in Baltimore, Maryland,
showing mothers of white school
children (and motherhood is sup
posed to be so compassionate and
understanding picketing a school
that some colored boys and girls
had started to attend. They bore
placards Zone of them you could
see read Keep the GERMS out of
our school') as they walked on the
sidewalk, young people were fight
ing each other, even two little boys
were fighting. There is definite
proof that if these parents would
just allow their children to 90 to
school normally, and thank their
lucky stars that these children had
such good schools to go to, every
thing would be all right. Wee little
folks have no feeling of racial
prejudice, and they never would
have if they didn't hear opinions
voiced at home. To quote the news
caster "Colored people were stand
ing along the street, uneasily
watching the demonstration"
Is it any wonder that some peo-
pie of the colored race should
turn ready ear to communistic
propaganda, they probably would
believe the Reds when they would
tell them how their lot would be
improved.
A lot of livestock farmers are
becoming more aware of the ad-
vantageS of feeding ensilage, and
those who don't have a silo have
been building a temporary one out
of bales of straw. There are several
farmers here in our neighbarhood
who have done this, and then filled
them with chopped corn. In pre-
vious years we had filled our silo
with corn, but this fall we put the
3rd cutting of alfalfa hay in it, the
hay was SO tall and thick, and we
were afraid that it would not cure
in the field. We put 20
acres of hay in the silo, and there
was really lot of hay there, but
the silo wasn't nearly full. AS re-
suit, we put lot of corn in it, too. |
A farmers wife can always tell
when that man starts feeding en-
silage, though, there's a peculiar
Odor about him when he comes in |
from the barn, and there isn't |
much that can be done about it, !

Helpful Hints for Harassed
Housewives Dept. -

If some of you have gone fish
ing and caught SO many fish that
you can't eat them up fast
enough(?), try to freeze some of
them My mother freezes fish this
way, and they taste just like fresh
when they come out of the freezer.
She puts the amount of fish she
wants in one package in an oblong
pan, such as a bread pan. She
covers the fish with water, then
sets the pan in the freezer until
the water is frozen solid. Then she
removes block of ice from the pan,
wraps it and puts it back in the
freezer.

Time for House Action

Now that the Senate has registered its
tentative approval Of the Family Court bill, it
Is about time for some consideration to be given
this important measure on the House side So
far there have been no hearings on the bill by
the House District Committee, although it was
introduced early in the session by Chairman
Simpson. Nor have any hearings been sched-
uled. Yet the legislation has controversial
aspects on which both sides undoubtedly would
like to be heard.
The Senate'S acceptance of the court meas
ure was conditional in that there is pending a
motion for reconsideration Senator Gore a
supporter OF the bill made the motion as
courtesy to an unidentified absent member, but
promised to withdraw it if action to take ad-
vantage OF the motion did not come promptly.
No objection to the bill was voiced by any
Senator when the bill came up on the unani-
NOUS consent calendar.
The merits of the Family Court plan were
debated at length in the Senate hearings on
the legislation. There was overwhelming testi-
mony in support of the proposal, largely by
judges of the various District tribunals Op-
ponentS were in a minority. Experience in
other cities has shown that domestic relations
courts are well worth while. Witnesses at the
hearings made it plain that the District Court is
poorly equipped to handle such specialized
litigation. Congress should heed the advice of
the judges and other advocates of the plan and
create such tribunal in Washington.

Fixing up water garden in the back
yard is not hard task, but no one
should undertake the job without read
ing at least one good book on the sub
ject.
Those who fly into the work sight
unseen often rue it, in the days to
come.
Especially unfortunate are those who
build a nice pool, only to have some
poor innocent drown in it.
So right from the start. one should
carry this dread possibility in mind.
and guard against it as much as is
humanity possible.
That is one reason why q fence
around a place is advisable.
In cases where this is not possible,
the pool, large or small, should be
guarded by barricades and stout screen
ing material.
Such guards do not add to its attrac-
tiveness, it is true. But when the water
plants, including lilies, throw up their
fine leaves, most of the guarding
material is hidden.
The garoen pool may range from a
simple tub. either of wood or galvanized
metal, to the elaborate concrete affair
deeper at one end than at the other.
If the tub looks too much like tub,
it will not be so good. so particular
care must be put on making such an
arrangement look natural, as we say.
This naturalness is. reduced to its
lowest denominator. simply the natural
ness of good growth.

So be sure to explain. especially to
next-door neighbors. that the new pool
is amply stocked with fish for the
and their various forms.
Guppies and goldfish, Of course, do
not mix. except in the stomachs of the
latter. So choose one kind, and stick
to it.
Either goldfishes or guppies may be
taken into the house in the fall and
should be from the tub water garden.
If an elaborate concrete pool is built.
following good directions. the gold6shes
may be left in all winter, and this is
one reason for the larger pool
Aside from that, the big water garden
fits into the landscape better. looks
better all the time, and may hold frogs.
1t is always delightful to have one Of
these croakerS around.
Often he will not be around too long.
if there are other pools in the block,
for now and then he will migrate; and.
conversely. one may find a total
stranger in the water, now and then.
1t is all very pleasant, and the owner
should not be too upset when he finds
water snake in his pool some morn
ing. These, too, migrate, and are
harmless, except to frogs.
The garden pool is both ornamental
and interesting. If steps are taken to
keep small children away, it will be a
source of amusement and interest the
year around, after having been much
more fun to build, than the ubiquitous
outdoor fireplace which, once built. Is
neglected hereafter.

Librory Of Congress BUDGET Cut

There is. I'm afraid. more than one
way to make America ignorant. One
Of the surer ones was tried by the
House Appropriations Committee when
it cut the Library Of Congress budget
by more than million dollars.
The Library Of Congress was created.
a century and half ago, to be source
Of information for Congress itself. But
it Is now-and has been for many years
Ia great library for the entire Nation
as well. That is what the Appropria-
tions Committee appears to resent. Yet
If there is ever q time when we need
an informed America. it is today: and
the greatest storehouSe Of knowledge
In our country is this same national
library. Through the work Of the Lii
brary staff and through the books and
articles - technical and otherwise -
written by scholars studying there. the
sum Of national knowledge Is immeas-
urably increased.
In the face of these facts. the con-
tempt Of the House Committee for
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. betrayed when 1t
called the Library Of Congress its
"creature"-is appalling.
