Pond Building In
Ohio On Increase

COLUMBUS, OHIO Farm
pond construction is still on the
increase in Ohio and according to
records of the Fish Management
Section, Ohio Division of Wildlife,
several hundred applications for
farm pond fish have been receiv-
ed since January l, 1855. Federal
hatcheries in Ohio, operated by
the u. S. Fish and Wildlife Ser
vice, furnish fish for farm ponds
after approval by the Ohio Divi-
sion of Wildlife.
A recent survey has disclosed
there are more than 10000 farm
ponds in Ohio at the present time
with an immediate need for 3d.
900 more to help solve the farm
crs water shortages.
During the past few years the
building of farm ponds has stead
lily increased. They not only pro-
vide many hours of relaxation and
enjoyment for farmers who would
otherwise lind it difficult to go
fishing, farm ponds also furnish
a constant water supply for cat
tie. and fire protection.
Potentially, farm ponds can fur
nish an additional crop for the
farmers but the fish must be
caught continually, if the ponds
are to provide fish of good size.
Most farm ponds are underfished
rather than over-fished, which ac-
counts for a large population Of
small fish rather than a small pop
ulation of larger sized fish, which
is more desirable.
Fisheries personnel know, after
years Of study, that the reproduct-
i've capabilities of farm pond fish
particularly bluegills) is so great
it is virtually impossible to SUBJ

Best Bre akfast
Is Family Meal

Hunger is the next best of sauc-
es. Companionship comes first.
which brings up the subject of
breakfast. It's impossible to get up
in the morning and not be hungry
after about twelve hours without
food, if hunger may be defined as
the need for nourishment. Yet,
though hungry, great numbers of
people habitually skip or slight
breakfast, quite possibly because
breakfast is go-it-alone affair in
too many households.
Forty-four percent of the
fathers quiZZed in recent survey
did not eat an adequate break
fast regularly. This, an important
group, is not an isolated one. Stud
les among children, teen-agers,
young adults, older adults, all
point to the same sad conclusion.
Breakfast, for too many of us, is
something less than a meal.
NutritioniSts in general agree
that breakfast is essential. Many
top authorities state flatly that
breakfast is the most important
meal of the day, and what's more
have established a yardstick for
measuring the adequacy of a
breakfast menu. The morning meal
should furnish from Il to Il of
the days food requirements.
Fifteen minutes is all it takes
to prepare an up to standard
breakfast of fruit or juice, ready
to-eat cereal with milk, bread and
butter or margarine and bever-
age-surely thrifty use of time.
It's we'll worth spending those
few minutes to make breakfast a
pleasant family occasion. Granting
that all but the very young fry
could probably fend for themsel-
yes - breakfast tastes so much
better in company.

When asked what he thinks Of
Milford, his reply was, Il think
Milfoyd is a lovely, charming and
respectable community. The stu
dents here are Overwhelmingly
well-behaved and mannerly An
other tribute to the student body
is that, generally speaking, they
have a basic respect for their tea
chers. The attitude of most Of our
students reflects the wholesome

that he first becomes acutedly

til such time as the facilities are
