W0SU !Tv Will
0perate On unF

Columbus, O.-With simple
modification television sets now
in use can be converted to re-
ceive the new Ohio State Uni
versity station, WOSU-Tv, which
will begin regular program broad
casts Monday afternoon, Feb 20.
The modification will be neces-
sary for all sets except those spe-
officially designed to receive Ty
signals in the UHF ultra high
frequency range, Prof. Robert c.
Higgy, director of radio station
WOSU and at presnt the director
of the new TV station, said to
day. WOSU-TV transmits on
Channel "a in the UHF range and
has been running equipment tests
since last Fall.
Most sets now used in this area
are designed to receive only sta
tions transmitting in the vHF
(very high frequency range,
which includes Channels 2 thr-
ough 13. However, sales OF con-
version equipment and new UHF
sets have Oeen under way locally
for SOM time, and Professor Hig-
gy estimates that there are now
between 1000 and 5000 sets in
Columbus which can receive
UHF. He urged that anyone plan
ming to purchase a new set make
certain that it includes provision
for receiving the university sta
-tion. ,

Pig Mortality Is
Major Problem Of
Swine Producers

Death losses among baby pigs
constitute the major livestock
health problem now facing swine
producers, authorities of the a.
merican Foundation for Animal
Health reported here today.
Veterinary leaders claim that
losses associated with enteritis
and scours seem to surpass all 9TH
ers. In general, the known disea-
ses Of which enteritis and diarr-
hea are symptoms can be divided
into two groups - those caught by
an infection and those caused by
deficiency.
The real danger from these
problems lies in the fact that the
symptoms are similar to those of
many other Diseases" the Foun-
dation said. These other diseases
may also be caused either by a
virus, or other type of infection. or
by deficiencies or excesses in
feeding. Thus, the whole picture
becomes very complicated"
Because of the many facets of
the baby pig disease problems, and
because several of the diseases de-
velop quickly, the Foundation urg-
ed the Importance of prompt
professional diagnosis.
The important thing is to first
determine WHICH disease prob
lem is responsible for the synp-
TOMS" said the Foundation. with
out an immediate diagnosis, much
valuable tine may be lost, and
possibly many pigs, also"

If you are not on a seed or shrub
or tree catalogue list, and you
want to take a look-see at what's
offered this season, check the
pages of your newspaper for the
names and addresses of adverti-
sers. Usually the Sunday papers,
or the days when special garden
sections are printed, will be full
of information on the subject.
Before you place an order,
though, unless you are familiar
with the firm making the offer
ings, check with veteran Green
Thumber---or contact the garden
club in your area. Most suppliers
are reputable. Some are not and
just are after the quickie cash
from the pockets of your we'll
worn jeans.
Check your garden, check the
supplier-and tnen check yourself
to make sure you have the time,
energy and garden space to hand
lie the lures OF the presprlng print

It's The Time For
Growing Pains
BY ALBERT S. FULLING
AP NeWsfeatures


The postman only has to ring
once these days to get quick res
ponse at the home of the gardener.
It's catalogue time The pages of
gay and colorful pictures and des-
criptions of seeds, shrubs, trees
and varied paintings are the invi-
tation to spring.
You throw another log on the
fire, start with page one and go
right through the possibilities for
the not too far distant growing
season. Perhaps you muse about
the big things which can be done
in this years garden.
The normal tendency is to
check the check book, then sit
down with the order blank and go
to town. The Mrs. is at full throt-
tie on the suggestions for the an
nuals to be planted. The Mr.. is all
set to make this THE vegetable
year.
Jointly they conspire - on pa
per, Of course to succumb to
the almost uncontrolled urge to or
der this and that, and this and
that, until the list becomes formi-
dable. There's a time for a great
big whoa on both sides of the gar
den patch, and then the essentials
pluc few extras get the check
book treatment. AT least, that's the
way it should be.
The repeated Don't overplant"
rhythm beats family above the
cracking of the wood in the fire
place.
Even the suppliers are giving a
word of caution these days. ALI
America Rose Selections, for in
stance. gives these few words on
the subject:
ut is difficult in going through
the latest rose catalogues not to
want everything pictured in them.
AS page after dazzling page of
most beautiful roses appear, it
is only human to want such beauty
in your own garden.
Experienced gardeners have
found that it is wise to check their
gardens before ordering from their
catalogues so that every rose will
have an important part in the
overall plan. The latest trend in
rose gardening is to use them not
only for their color and beauty but
also as excellent solutions to land
saaping problems.

Greenland Remains A Lost World
Hidden Beneath A Mantle OF Ice

Enough ice covers
Greenland to enyelop the entire
world in a frozen sheath II feet
thick.
Cut into jumbo ice cubes, it
would give every person on earth
a two-ton chunk once every min
ute for a year.
III it melted all at once. the
worlds oceans would rise by "a
feet-perhaps higher as Greenland
itself lifted from release of weight.
Such are the almost inconceiv-
able dimensions of the Greenland
ice done-647, 300 cubic miles of
ice. Paul-Emile Victor, French po-
lar explorer writing in the current
National Geographic Magazine,
calls it a recording machine of
times and climates past"
From 194S until 1853, and sched-
uled again in 1857, French expedi-
tions to Greenland have explored
and surveyed the icy face of the
largest island on earth.
Totally unknown plains, pla-
teaus, valleys and mountain chains
were discovered buried two miles
deep. Map makers blazed 10000
miles of new exploration. China
tologists recorded conditions that
affect the weather of the entire
North Atlantic and the lands a.
round IL.
With weasels (World War II
snow vehicles), cable hoist, and
air drops, the Victor expeditions
managed to get more than 100 tons
of equipment and supplies onto the
perpetually frozen roof of Green
Land.
They fought moving glacial
snow and ice, slush, hummocks and
crevasses, warm foehn winds and
midsummer billiards with gusts of
12O miles per hour and tempera-
lures of 40 degree below zero.

Read That Label
For Economy Buys

Modern grocery markets have
about 500 different canned foods
from which to select the stock for
their shelves. Then within each
food group there are several diff
ferent brands and grades to
choose from. This gives the food
shopper a wide variety from
which to make the selections she
may buy.
Anyone who has ever tried to
count the different labels display
ed in any given section of a mod
ern supermarket will agree with
Chester Swank, Consumer Food
Marketing Specialist at Ohio
State University, that there is
certainly plenty of variety Swank
also points out that these labels
serve as the windows through
which the shopper can "see"
what is inside the cans.
Label reading has become an
important step in wise shopping.
Federal regulations require that
all canned foods shipped in inter-
state commerce be labeled with
certain factual information. The
label for example, must show the
legal name of the item In the con-
tainer, such as corn, peas, or pea
ches. The label must show the net
contents in weight or fluid mea-
sure. II must show the name and
address of the manufacturer, pack
er, or distributor. It must show a
list of all ingredients in the con-
tainer.
Some packers go much farther
than these legal requirements.
They try to be helpful to the
homemaker In her use of their pro-
ducts. They may indicate the stage
Of maturity. the number of serv-
ings, the contents Of the container
in terms Of cups or number of
pieces, the size of the pieces, sea-
sonings, and even recipes for US
ing the product.
The wise shopper, says Mr..
Swank, will compare not only the
price Of different cans of a given
food item, but also the information
on the labels when she Is deciding
which to buy. Two cans Of the
same size may also sell for the
same price, but one may be bet
ter value than the other because
of other factors which can be de-
ternined only by reading the la
bels.

Counting caIories
Aid To Health

How often we hear that abund-
ant America is the best fed coun-
try in the world Praise for the
varied American diet is frequently
expressed in terms of 'calories"
we may hear, for example, that the
people of less fortunate lands have
only so many calories a day in
their diet compared with the high
calorie content of the average A
merican diet.
In these days. when so many
people are conscious of their
weight, we hear about counting
calories." We take this to mean
that people who are overweight
should avoid rich foods. But the
fact is that everybody. even those
whose weight is normal, should be
concerned with calories-not so
much with counting them but with
distinguishing between two differ
ent kinds of calories, for the kind
of calories in our diet holds the
key to good nutrition.
An important defect in the US.
diet is the large consumption of
empty" calories-a defect which
has worsened by about 40 per cent
in the last 40 years.
What are empty" calories?
nf sx14x
that provide virtually none of the
minerals or vitamins essential for
health. They are found primarily
in sugar and cooking fats. If the
intake of fats and sugar in our diet
should be curtailed to cut down on
empty" calories, where do we find
the full calories that do contain
the minerals and vitanins we
need? They are found in meat,
eggs, and milk. starchy and wat
cry vegetables, and fruit. For bet
ter nutrition we should eat more Of
these foods.
1t would be ironic indeed if WELL
fed America should suffer from
poor nutrition because we don't
know what kind of calories TO
count
