Local Jersey Bull
Qualities AS Sire

A registered Jersey bull, Ad-
Vancer Jester Baron, owned by
Beverly Ashmore, Route 2, Lon
don, Ohio, is announced by The
American Jersey Cattle Club as
having qualified as a Tested Sire.
Ten tested daughters of AdVanc-
er Jester Baron produced an aver
age of 1888 lbs. milk containing
500 lbs. butterfat on a tWice-daily-
milking, 305-d"y mature equival-
ent basis, which is more than two
times the butterfat production of
the average" dairy COW in the
United States. All records were
made under official supervision of
The American Jersey Cattle Club,
which has its national headquart-
ers in Columbus, Ohio.
Six of his daughters have been
classified for type by an official
classifier. of the Club. They attain
ed an average score of $500 as
compared to the breed average of
S3.09Rc.
Advancer Jester Baron has been
officially classified for type by the
Club and given a rating of Very
Good.
This sire was bred by Borden's
of Springfield, Springfield, Ohio,
and was purchased as calf in
1916 by his present owners.

Says No Merit In
Sprinc Burnino

Any way you look at it, spring
burning is a horse and buggy prac-
tice that does more harm than
good, according to r. K. Davis,
Ohio State University extension
specialist in wildlife conservation.
Spring burning doesn't even con-
troll weeds, Davis points out. In
stead it controls desirable grasses
and legumes and makes it possible
for weeds to move into the burned
area. When practiced in fence
rows or roadside bitches it can
damage or destroy wood fence
posts, galvanized fence and utility
poles and create a hazard to near
by buildings It also can destroy
wildlife or wildlife nesting areas.
Young rabbits are in the nest
now, Davis says, and are helpless
before fire. Later in the season
burning will destroy quail and
pheasant nests. Where burning
doesn't destroy wildlife directly If
often forces birds and animals into
less desirable living quarters,
Davis explains.
The wildlife specialist also notes
that spring burning in destroying
vegetative cover, leaves the ground
vulnerable to erosion.

Farm Employers
Reminded OF Tax

Farm employers of the Column
bus district were reminded today
by District Director Nathaniel
LOCKER of the Internal Revenue
Service that social security taxes
We're due on or before January 81,
1856, from each employer who
paid an employee S1o0 or more in
cash wages during 1855 for agri-
cultural labor. The taxes are per-
cent of the cash wages q percent
employer tax and 2 percent en-
ployee taxi. Any employer who did
not report the taxes when due
should obtain Form 943 from the
Internal Revenue Service office at
Columbus, Ohio, and should send
his return to that office as soon as
possible.
Cash wages paid in 1856 for ag-
ricultural labor will not be report
ed until January 1857 District Di-
rector LOCKER said that two chang
es in procedure are in effect be-
ginning January l, 1856. The
CndngeS are as IOllOWS.
/. Deposits of employer and en-
ployee taxes during the year are
required of each farm employer
who owes more than $100 tax liza
bility at any time before Decem-
ber l of the year. Before 1856 de-
posits were required only for those
months in which the liability ex-
ceeded 500.
2. Form 943A tthe quarterly re-
turn used in 1855 to report taxes
of 500 or more) will no longer be
used. Each agricultural employer
will continue to file an annual re-
turn on Form 943.
These changes are explained in
the January 1856 revision of Circu-
lar A, Agricultural Employers So
cial Security Tax Guide Copies of
the new Circular A have been
mailed to farm employers who are
on the District Directors social Sc
curity tax mailing list, and addi-
tional copies may be obtained from
his office upon request.

US. Uses Over
Half Of Worlds
Newsprint Output

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. - OF
the slightly over 10 million tons
of newsprint produced in the
world in 1854, almost 5.5 million
were used in the United States.
The next largest consumer was the
United Kingdom, which used some
$4,000 tons, followed by Japan US
ing 424,000, Canada 100000 and
France and Western Germany, US
ing around $4,000 tons each. No
comparable figures are available
for production or consumption in
the Soviet Union.
The circulation of daily news
papers per 1000 of the population,
however, was highest in the Unit
ed Kingdom, where it reached $40
copies. This is explained by the
fact that United States newspa-
perS, though relatively fewer, are
larger. Next in newspaper circu-
lation were Sweden, Norway, Aus
tralia and Japan, all with over 40C
copies per 1000 inhabitants, and
the United States with 339.
In the publishing of books, ia
pan and the United Kingdom were
easily in the lead with over $4,000
titles, followed by Western Ger
many with over 5000 and the
United States with 1000.
These figures are given in the
I'm Statistical Yearbook for 1855
which was published last month.

Be Extra Alert
On Rainy Days

April, traditional month for
showers, is extra hazardous for Pc
destrians because when it rains,
people foolishly hide under UNI
brellas and pull their heads down
in their coat collars even when
crossing the street, Mr.. Russell H.
Campbell, General Manager of The
Columbus Automobile Club said
today.
Mr., Campbell gave these reasons
for using the slogan BE Extra A
lert on Rainy Days" as the theme
for the April AAA School Safety
Poster. The poster is now being
distributed to schools in Columbus
by the Columbus Automobile Club.
The eye-catching poster was de-
signed by Raymond Crabowski, a
student at Cass Technical High
School, Detroit, Michigan. Ray
mond's poster was selected by a
prominent board of judges, includ-
ing artists, educators, and safety
specialists, from hundreds of other
posters Illustrating the same safe
ty slogan in the last AAA National
Traffic Safety Poster Contest. The
poster will be on display in schools
all over the United States this
month.
IT'S hard to explain, but many
people will gamble with their lives
running across the street without
looking where they are going, just
to keep from getting few drops
of water on their heads" Mr.
Campbell said. This months safe
ty program, in which we cooperate
with school, officials, will stress the
foolhardiness of such actions, and
urge parents to remind their chill
dren of the same thing each time
they must leave the house on rainy
days"
