Evaporation from an outside gaSO-
line storage tank during hot weather
may be as much as 10 percent per
month. You can stop this loss by in
Stalling a pressure valve. When pres
sure builds up to about three pounds it
will release the pressure. Gasoline
servicemen have information about
them. Another way to reduce loss is
to paint tank an aluminium color.

A modest flock of ewes is one means
of getting extra dollars out of unused
dryland pasture or even the best of
irrigated pastures. A flock of 60 ewes
at present prices will give an annual
return of more than $1,000.

Light users of water on the Huntley
project consistently received higher
yields than heavy users. The certain
way of avoiding waste is to measure
the water for every field and crop
so just the right amount can be APP
piled.

Milk and milk products are excellent
buys for the money spent. A study re-
veals that city families spent less than
one-fifth of their food money for dairy
products, yet dairy products provided
two thirds of the calcium, more than
two fifths of the riboflavin, plus con-
siderable protein, vitamin A and en-
ergy value.

LOSSES In HARVESTING With
combine are often much greater than
necessary because of improper adjust
mentS.
The four points at which grain may
be lost are cutterbar, cylinder, straw
rack and cleaning shoe. (The shoe is
the combination of sleeves and screens
used for cleaning.)
Cutterbar losses include shelled grain
Or heads that have been knocked to the
ground by an improperly adjusted
reel. 1t also includes uncut heads that
have been cut off by the knife and
dropped to the ground.
Cylinder losses include those kernals
of grain which are left in the heads
and are carried out over the rear Of
the straw rack.
Rack losses consist of loose kernels
of grain that are carried over the rear
of the straw rack with the straw.
Shoe losses include those loose kerr
nels of grain that are carried over the
rear of the cleaning shoe with the
chaff.
BEFORE ANY ADJUSTMENTS ARE
MADE, THE SOURCES OF LOSS
SHOULD BE DETERMINED.
You can find cutterbar losses by
looking for loose kernels and heads of
grain on the ground back of the cutter
bar. Then look in the standing grain
and observe how many kernels are
found. The resulting number of ker-
nelS per square foot is cutterbar loss.
An average of 20 kernels of wheat
per square foot approximates one
buShel per acre.
Cylinder loss can be determined by
looking for unthreshed kernels in the
heads.
Rack losses can be measured by
catching the straw mot the chaff) on
a canvas. The loose grain is then
shaken out of the straw. By measuring
the area over which the sample was
taken and then finding the number OF
kernels per square foot, the bushels
per acre loss may be obtained.
The shoe loss can be measured on
some combines by catching only the
chaff material coming over the real

of the cleaning shoe. With other COM
bineS, it is impossible to catch the
chaff without catching the straw at the
same time. On these, the shoe loss can
then be measured by Subtracting the
rack loss from rack and shoe losses
as measured by catching all of the
material leaving the rack and shoe.
The bushel per acre loss is then de-
termined as described for rack loss
above.
OUTBREAK LOSSES
Grain dropping in front of platform.
Lower reel so it will push grain well
back. Fasten strips of flexible belt
ing to reel Stats.
Grain carried around by reel.
Use canvas or screen on reel arms.
Lower header to cut more straw.
Raise reel in very tall crop.
CYLINDER OR THRESHING LOSSES
Not threshing grain from heads.
Increase cylinder speed. Reduce
clearance between cylinder and con-
caves
Cracked grain.
Open adjustable sieve slightly. Re-
duce the air blast. Increase cylinder
clearance. Decrease cylinder speed.
Remove rear concave bars.

l3,OOO Mccarthy Backers Protest Censure Motion

NEW YORK, R-A rally in Madison Square Garden roared its support for Sen. Joseph R. Nc Carthy R-Wis) Monday night and strongly protested the Senate mo- ton to censure him.
 The wildly enthusiastic crowd, estimated at 13,000, applaIuded speaker after speaker who praised the senator and condemned his critics. Some of the loudeSt ac- claim was won by the senator's wife, Jean, and Roy M. Cohn, former counsel to McCarthy's investigating committee.
 "If the Senate votes to censure, it will have been committing the blackest act in its entire history" declared Cohn, who was spotted in the audience and brought to the speakers platform by cries of "Speech!" and "We want Roy!"
 The rally was sponsored by a group called "Ten Million Ameri- cans Mobilizing for Justice" and climaxed that organizations drive for 10 million signatures on petition protesting censure of Me Carthy.
 Rear Adm. John G. Crommelin (retireD, who directed the sigma ture drive, announced that 1,150,- 238 names had already been counted and there were piles of petitions remaining to be tabu- lated. q don't see how we can fail to go way over the top," he said.

Instant Milk. a revolutionary new nonfat dry milk of unique granular structure which dis solves instantly even in ice water, was announced here recently with the start of local distribution by Carnation Company.
 Instant Milk is the single great est development in the centuries old history of powdered milk and the top achievement in the entire dairy industry since the advent of evaporated milk.
 National distribution of the non-caking, nonfoaming dry milk product is expected to be com pleted early next year.
 Startling in it's solubility and flavor properties, Instant Milk contains the essential elements of whole milk, except butterfat, and is especially useful for nutritional purposes. It may also be used to increase the protein and mineral content of whole milk.
 The exclusive process for mak- ing Carnation Instant Milk was developed by David D. Peebles, founder and president of Western Condensing Go. after nearly 40 years of experimentation.
 Each foil and cellophane- wrapped package, which contains a special spout for easy pouring, makes more than three quarts of milk at a cost of about 10 cents a

Three Major Fires

Continued from Page One)
The local firemen readily ad-
nit that they could not have
stopped the blaze without the
help of nearby farmers, who put
their tractors and plows to
work in stopping the spread of
the fire. 1t was reported that
approximately 10 tractors were
used in plowing off sections of
land, especially surrounding the
gas wells.
With the Caldwell firemen on
the east and the Belle Valley
firemen on the west, in addition
to individual volunteer fire
fighters on all sides, the fire was
stopped after a battle of three
and half hours. Fire swept
over about 200 acres of land, but
fortunately no buildings we're
destroyed.
Olive Green Fire
The Reinersville Volunteer
Fire Department was called out
Friday at loo p. m. to battle a
grass fire near Olive Green.
The fire got out of control
while trash was being burned
on the Alfred Cant farm Friday
morning. Neighboring farmers
gathered to fight the fire, clear
ing brush and blowing with their
tractors, before the alarm was
sent out for the fire department.
The fire had spread over about
rs acres, from the Cant farm
onto the property of Glenn FoS-
ter and in one place, the flames
were only few feet from a barn
on the Foster property.
Firemen and farmers succeed
ed in putting out all the fire in
approximately three hours time.
Turkeys Consumed
In less than a half-hour'S time,
1000 young turkeys, a ton of
feed, a number of brooders, in
addition to all the miscellaneous
contents of the two-story barn
and the structure itself, went
up in smoke in Mt. Ephraim on
Saturday afternoon.
The property consumed by
fire was owned by John Miley,
we'll known turkey producer of
Mt. Ephraim.
The fire was discovered at
1890 p. m. and burned to the
ground by 100 p. M, with only
few smoldering, red timbers
left.
Cause of the fire was not de-
termined. 1t is believed that
either an explosion from one of
the bottle-gas brooders or faulty
wiring may have been the cause.
The turkeys were nine days
old.
There was only partial insur-
ance on the structure, the feed
and the brooders.
Mr.. Miley estimated that the
loss of his turkeys would be
more than a $l,000.00.

Roman Meal" Bread
Featured In Local
Stores For Health

Roman Neal bread is being
introduced into Caldwell and
community by the Nickels Bak-
cry of Navarro and this calorie
saving products is being well re-
ceived by local housewives.
Roman meal bread got its
start centuries ago from the
Romans, who were then con-
sidered invincible and conquers
of the Roman Empire. The food
that sustained them each day
was one pound of whole wheat,
one pound of rye, plus flax to
chew on the march. This diet,
supplemented by foods found en-
route, maintained the health
and exceptional stamina of the
Roman legionS.
1t remained for a practicing
in this county, in Tacoma, Wash,
to re-discover the centuries-old
diet. DR.. Robert C. Jackson suf-
fered from persistent ill-health
which caused him to begin a
stubborn, full-time search for re-
lief from his physical distress.
1t led to his discovery of
Roman MeaI' bread. DR.. Jack
sons formula, based on the
Roman Legion story of centuries
ago, has now achieved nation
wide popularity. Today, Roman
Meal bread is baked and distri-
buted by about $50 bakeries.
1t is not just health bread,
although many are attracted to
its natural health-giving pro-
perties. 1t is not just for those
over weight who must watch
their diets, although Roman Meal
bread is widely used in conjunc-
ton with reducing plan. Its
heath giving substances are good
insurance that the body under
such a regimen receives vital
nutrients needed for growth and
normal activity.
Distributed by Nickels bakery,
Roman Meal bread can now be
obtained at the M. & K. store
and Hayes Meat market in Cald-
well.
1t will soon be available in the
other grocery stores in Caldwell,
placed there by the public de-
mand of the housewife.
