He also mentioned the great
damage being done in Eastern
Shore areas by deer. Farmers
have been complaining of depre-
dationS of deer on corn crops. In
bay area counties the practice
has been to cure corn in the
fodder shocks instead of in cribs
due to moisture conditions. Deer
are raiding these shocks and
some farms have lost as much as
10 acres of stored corn. This
would indicate that perhaps a
doe season might be the cure in
areas where deer have concen-
trated.

Tuning in ones radio, upon

is pleasant to hear; and every SO

brings something that is really
reWarding.
On Sunday, November II, this
viewer of "The American Way"
tuned in on a most interesting
interview. AS a rule these inter
views are boring, but this turned
out to be the exception that
proves the rule" That it took
place on "Veterans Day" was
most fitting.
Being interviewed was Billy
Eckstine, just returned to the
U.S.A. from a successful singing
tour of England, France and
other European countries. Asked
as to how he had been received
in the countries visited, Billy
was warm in his praises of the
hospitality accorded him.
Toward the end of the inter-
view, John Paul King, (the inter
vieWer) threw this question at
Eckstine:
after that successful tour of
Europe, can you describe your
feelings on getting back to
American"
"That's easy" came the reply,
! ''let me say that you're just
camping out when you leave

It has been suggested, said Mr..
Reisener, that efforts be made
to have legislation enacted that
would prevent the erection Of
shoddy, ill-constructed public
mausOleums. He said that within
the last two years a number of
public mausoleums have been
torn down because they had
deteriorated and it was neceS-
sary to remove the bodies, and
bury them in the ground. This
was due, he said, to the fact that
public mausoleum promoters
often lose interest in the mau-
soleums after all the crypts have
been sold and make no provisions
for permanent care.

Seerstory Of Stole Of Ohio

Considering the fact that ap-
proximately 100000 persons
served as precinct officials and
in other capacities in the conduct
of the election in Ohio on No
vember 6, the interest which
schools are placing on govern
ment, and especially on election
matters, is quite timely.
From these civics and govern
ment classes, which conducted
mock" elections, will come the
recruits" for these important
election tasks of the future.
The Secretary Of States office
has conducted a longrange
educational program both for
election officials and for the
public. The results have been
most gratifying-so much so that
there is All indication of an evid-
ent need for greater education
in these matters among the
youth.
Only the surface has been
scratched in the attempts which
have been made to cooperate
with the school administrators.
But with the limited personnel,
limited budget and limited faci-
lities enough schools have been
poDtactp5 to indicate that tpach-
ers are grasping for assistance
in the portrayal of important
election procedures in their over
all studies of government.
We are certain that the Boards
of Elections and many civic
groups are interested in cooper
ating with us in greater efforts
to be of assistance to schools in
ways that best fit the schools
schedules and curriculum.

The Enthusiastically control

freezing during cold spells and
insure a continuous supply of
ice-free water for livestock and

Automatic drinking fountains
reduce costs through increased
production and more rapid gains
on animals. They also save time
and labor.
Select an automatic waterel
that can be easily cleaned, has
proper insulation, and has only
a small reservoir of water to be
kept from freezing, Byg says
This will keep the electrica
consumption low. During Jan

ton should fall between l.5 to
kiloWatt-hours.
! A few Waterers have fiXet
