President Eisenhower has a comfortable lead over Adlai E.. Stevenson in most straw polls as the campaign draws to close.
 A George Gallup national poll covering interviews thru last Wednesday reported the Republi- can President ahead of his Dem ocratic rival 55 percent to 45 per cent.
 That ratio almost matches the actual 1852 election results, when the Eisenhower-Nixon tic k t polled 55.4 percent of the popular vote.
 A national man in the street" poll by Kenneth Fink, another professional boiler, gave this re- suit: Eisenhower 54 percent, Ste venson 46 percent.
 Stevenson has continued to score some gains however
 Most of the latest available strawS were taken before the Is- raeli invasion of Egypt last Mon day. Therefore the polls do not indicate what effect the hostilities might have on the election tomor- row.
 But some newspapers have made surveys in the past few days to sound out voter reaction to the Middle East hostilities.
 The New York Times said its correspondents in a dozen cities found that the Middle East crisis

and the anti-Soviet uprisings in eastern Europe have strengthened Eisenhower's reelection bid.
 The New York Daily News, backing Eisenhower editorially, said it's presidential straw poll shows Adlai E. Stevenson gaining votes in New York City as re suit of the Middle East crisis.
 The St. Louis Globe-Democrat, supporting Eisenhower, said it's final poll of St. Louis, St. Louis County, and 53 other counties in eastern Missouri shows Steven son leading with 49.3 percent of the vote. Eisenhower received fl. 2 percent, and 9.6 percent of voters were undecided. Missouri has IA counties.

HOWDY FOLKS,

1 recall saying would tell you a
few more things regarding grass seed
ing. What would you like to know?
Can't hear you, so I'll just ramble on
with a few things / think you might
be interested in.
First off, how about seeding grass
for seed production? Well, it can be
quite profitable If the soil bank legiS-
lation becomes law the demand for seed
should be strong for several years.
However, see by report from the
Agriculture Marketing Service that
present supplies are above average.
That's total, so there still may be
some grasses in short supply.
So much for dreaming. How should
you seed grass for seed production?
Put it in rows-that means more than
Pinch ones, too Under dryland con-
ditions you will generally get best
results if you seed with % to 42-inch
spacing between rows.
When should you seed? That depends
somewhat on the seeded and moisture
conditions. OF prime Importance is
that the seeded should be well packed
and free of weeds. In view of this, fall
or early spring seeding in clean stubble
is a good practice. Early spring means
just that. Seed as soon as you can get
onto the stubble Don't wait until you
have seeded the spring grain.
Early spring seeding on summer
fallow is also good provided the seed
bed is firm. On loose seeded it is
easy to seed the grass too deep. You
will get best results without a nurse
crop provided the soil isn't likely to
blow. l heard of a method while
back that has proven successful anc
provides protection for the grass. Block
off your drill so it will seed row OIL
two of grain and row of grass.
This way you can get the grass rows
spaced properly without competition Il
the row, can give the grass protection
from wind, and can harvest part of
grain crop. You should calibrate tn
drill for the grass and not worry abou
the rate for the grain seeding. After al
getting stand of grass is the goa
Really got wound up. Hope there wa
something of interest to you. Seems
me that grass merits another discussio

Girdles? Shoes? Which is

woman more distressed by a
Iconstricting girdle or by ill-fit-

has already kicked OF her shoes.

I know he deprived me Of

The husband certainly is no

whether his wife should do the

without also Furnishing herself

therefore, should take into ac-
count the fact that her hus.
bands behavior was due to con-
fusion and weakness. rather
than to aggressive evil. She
should take into consideration
his steadfastness during the 10
years of their life together.
The fact that she is so bitter
about the denial of children
shows that she wanted to be
the mother of his children. She
must have valued him as a good
man, and she should bring her.

really there, along with the
weakness that got him into this
strange predicament.
Even though she may be in
"a legal position to contend that
there is no marriage, she now
has an opportunity to be a real
wife by giving her husband what
he needs most, forgiveness and
an opportunity to live down the
colossal blunder that brought
so much unhappiness. An "es.

jstruction of what can still be
