JIM agreed at last and the plan was devised
and, after much discussion, the two mothers
agreed to it. The four parents met with Jud
and Nancy. and Walter Harrison acted as
spokesman while the kids sat, hand in hand,
wary and subdued.
I'VE think you're both too young. We think
you ought to wait. At least year. But we

and we can do il.
Each month you wait you'll be saving two

Correct" Jim said CURLY.
Nancy and Jud glanced at each other and
Nancy said in her thin young voice, I'VE think
we ought to talk it over some"
"Of course. dear" her mother agreed.
The kids agreed to accept and agreed to wait
an indeterminate period, wait until they felt the
time had come and then give fair warning

''She isn't right for Jud. She's shallow and
she's selfish. If she was right for him. she'd be

Don't worry, honey" he said. Just try

Bur there had been no quarrel. Christmas
had been a crucial time, but the kids did not
make their decision then. They were close.
inseparable, through their senior year. They
both graduated with good grades walked to-

they said they had made decision and they

and the four parents.
Walter knew they would now wish to be mar

too unprepared for life. Life was full of rude
shocks. and the kids did not yet have the proper

have that much knowledge.
Here are some Of the reasons
why various people look for

/ To have someone to take

2. To escape from q dull,

8. To get away from paren-

4. To enjoy q normal sex

5. To have q home in which
you can entertain your friends.

z. To crafty curiosity.
8. To have more money TO

8. To have someone to take

II. To find adventure and

quency. Several of them to-
gether probably influence
most people. The marriage
which satisfies many wants or
desires is better than the mar
riage which satisfies only one,
even If 1t is an important one.
Can you analyze your own
feelings honestly enough, Cor
rine, to decide what you want
out Of marriage? II so, you
may find that your wants are
OF such q nature that no SEN
sible man ought to marry you!
But II you have q normal
and reasonable set Of wants,
then look for q man who wants
the same things. Some Of the
worst mistakes In marriage re-
suit from a collision of wishes,
as Sociologist Joseph K. Fol-
som put 1t. II your wish is for
o social whirl, don't marry o
man whose wish is merely to
have someone to stay at home
and cook elaborate meals for
him.
In short, marry your own
kind!

a growing acceptance of the fact that neither
the flexible support program nor a high
level, rigid support program, without a
workable plan for surplus removal, viii
adequately meet the situation
There are even some signs that the GEN
eral public is beginning to realize that farm
ers cannot, in the long run, buy on a pro-
tected, stabilized market and sell on weak
or falling market.
1t is too early to guess whether the final
answer will be in the form of government
rental of surplus acreage a two-price plan,
production payments, high-level supports
coupled with bushel rather than acreage al
lotments, some effective surplus disposal ar
rangement, or a combination of some of
these and other proposals
AS far as farm and ranch people are con-
cerned, the encouraging thing is that the
period of wishfu1 thinking academic ham
ding and rigid attitudes seems to be giving
way to a growing realization among respon-
sible individuals and groups that positive ac-
ton must be taken to maintain farm prices
in equitable relationship with other prices.

Research In Beef Production

tenderness and new chemicals, stock pro-
ducers will be able to control meat texture
and grade, as well as rate of gain and the
amount of fat. In the past, it has been
thought that marbling quality was neceS-
Sary for maximum tenderness. Now, re-
search is revealing that tenderness and
flavor can be secured without excess fat.
Another promising field for scientific in
vestigation is the use of low quality forage
and by-products, such as straw Experiments
are being made to determine how these can
be utilized and converted into cheap feed of
good quality. Here, too encouraging results
are being secured and some scientists are of
the opinion that such methods will become
vastly important in the years ahead.
In the breeding and feeding of livestock,
as in many other industries, it appears that
methods and techniques that have been de-
veloped in recent years are just the begin
ming of the far-reaching changes the scien-
lists are unfolding for the future
Montana farmer-stockman., 1955-10-01

MUCH PROGRESS has been made in the
efficiency of beef production in recent years.
The spotlight has been on the inherited
ability of animals to utilize feed, as well as
other desired characteristics. This breed i'm
provement will continue but there viii also
be more emphasis on feed improvement.
Scientists have discovered that gain per
pound of feed can be increased through the
use of new hormones. Research along this
line is just in the early stages and much
further progress is anticipated.
Another field that is being investigated is
the relationship between hormones and
quality of beef. While this research is just
starting, there are indications that much can
be accomplished in this direction.
Scientists are also conducting expert
ments to determine the extent to which
tenderness can be bred into beef animals.
Tenderness of meat is known to be an in
herited quality with rabbits 1t is now be-
ieved that through the use of inherited meat

Changes Coming In Farm Program

THERE'S "A GRO WIN G realization
among farm leaders, congressman, econ
Omlsts and some USDA officials that the
present federal farm support program is not
satisfactory answer to the farm price diff
ficulty. The thing that is compelling these
groups to do some down-to-earth thinking
on this subject is the growing dissatisfaction
among farm and ranch people over the per-
sistent downtrend in farm commodity
prices
Congressman are becoming genuinely
alarmed over the political aspects of the
matter. Secretary Benson, too, is now con-
ceding that something of a positive nature
must be done.
Whether improvements in the program
Will come quickly enough to affect 1856 OPP
erations is questionable. Any basic changes
will require congressional action and it is
probably too much to expect that such action
will come that fast Furthermore, there is
still no general agreement as to what should
be done.
But there are encouraging indications
that positive and constructive action may be
taken at least for 1857 For one thing, farm
organizations are becoming less stiff-necked
in their approach to the problem. There is

This comparative inefficiency of the Rus
sian farmer is one of the most important
reasons for the continuing food shortage In
Russia. While this inefficiency can probably
be corrected TO a considerable degree in
time, there is another factor behind the Rus
sian food problem which will be far more
difficult to change. That is the compare
lively limited area of good farming land On
a per capita basis, there is far less good
farming land in Russia than In the United
States.

What the Russians Learned

WHEN THE RUSSIAN MERS
visited a number of agricultural districts in
their recent tour of the United States, they
learned many things But it was clear that
what intrigued them and amazed them more
than anything else was the tremendous eff
ficiency of the American farmer as com
pared with the Russian farmer A CORE
spondent of the New York Times, who ac-
companied the party, commented on this in
one of his articles as follows:
But, perhaps, the single factor which
time and again the Russians have questioned
and analysed is the way in which the one
man farm is operated by single farmer

time this lesson came home to Alexander

The formation of Junior
League in East Cleveland cur
rently hangs in the balance and
the final decision rests entirely
with the boys who are eligible to
take part.
Several weeks ago, the manag-
ing personnel of the East Cleve-
land Little League discussed the
possibility of forming a baseball
league which would permit boys
in the 1917 year age group to
take part in an organized program
Of summer baseball on local dia-
monds. They felt that graduates
of the Pony League and boys who
would not become II before Janu-
airy /, 1866, would welcome the
opportunity to play in a Junior
League on mid-week evenings,
thus permitting them to focus
their weekends on other activities.
However, the response has been
very disappointing to date accord
ing to Recreation Commissioner
Roy Wisecup who has received
only 81 registration forms for
Junior League baseball. One rea-
son for the lack of response has
been the formation of two teams
of a higher classification which
several of the local diamond ath-
letes have decided to join in
preference to the Junior League.
Other boys who are eligible and
who have not signed up apparently
have other interests which they
prefer to baseball.
At any rate, a practice session
for all Of the boys who have
signed to play Junior League base
ball will be held next Tuesday,
May 3rd at Forest Hills No. / at
6:30 p. m. Then, on Thursday, May
5th, a final decision will be made
regarding the continuation or
abandonment of Junior League
