Ohio swine producers are rap
idly gaining a reputation for the
lean, meaty kind of market hogs
they favor. On Saturday, Febru-
airy 25, at the fairgrounds at Lon

Ohio market hog crop, represent
ing all pure breeds, and the COM
mercial crosses, will be driven in
the show ring by about 100 diff
ferent exhibitors. Another 1000
interested farmers and future far
mers will attend. Many of these
win match their judgment again
st the officials when the on-foot
champions are tied, as the blue
ribbon pigs must also compete in
the carcass contest.
Each exhibitor in the show has
the opportunity to nominate one
pig to the carcass contest and see
how his type measures UP to the
kind that is approved by the con-
sumner. The carcass contest re-
suits will be shown on Wednes-
day, February % in the coolers of
Armour and Company, Columbus,
and at the new Youth Building on
the Ohio State Fairgrounds. A
luncheon in the Youth Building
will accompany the discussion of
the cut-out reports on the winning
carcasses. The results of the car
cass contest will also determine
the winning judges from the on
foot show audience, who have
marked cards on their rating of
the on-foot champions.
The All Ohio Swine banquet, on
the evening of February "a, at
the fairgrounds in London, is the
first event in this fourth annual
spring barrow show program.

sive winters, parties of eight men
dug in and lived through some of
the worlds widest weather. Bur-
led in the snow, like prisoners in
cells, they ventured out only to
make readings, sometimes at IS

For the first time, the depth of
much of the icecap was measured.

Victor had found Greenland to be
not one but three islands, but he
himself writes, I'VE are hardly
able to say that.
What we found is that glaciers

have carved out canyons 20 to 80
miles wide and 300 to 1,20O feet
below the level of the sea-"

as did the great ice desert that
once covered much of northern
Europe, Asia, and America. In
Greenland the cold of past millen-
ilrms has accumulated: the icecap
lives today on the cold of past
ages.
BY lowering himself into a well
three feet across and 100 feet deep,
the explorer was able to read a
century's history in layers of neve
-compacted snow--fnuch like tree
rings. This hole was only a pin
prick in the ice dome, however;
seismological readings showed that
the Icecap Station stood on top of
some 10,400 feet of snow and ice.

More Millions In
This Pay-0ut Pot

Ohio cities paid out q total of
O0,039, 1882 for charities, hospitals
and corrections during the 1o-year
period from 1945 through 1854 ac-
cording to a report in the office
of State Auditor James A. Rhodes.
Largest total outlay for a single
year was 1854 when the cities
spent $26,007, ,460 on these pro-
grams.
Largest amount was spent on
hospitals and infirmaries. These in
stitutions accounted for $120, ,7O5,-
186 of the expenditures. A total of
$61, ,782,715 was spent on poor re-
lief while warehouses, detention
homes and other correctional pro-
grams cost the taxpayer SIT, $751; :
481.
The 1854 figures follow: hospit-
ais and infirmaries, $17,201 ,019;
poor relief, $6,206, 140, and work
houses. detention homes and other
correctional programs, $500, ,301.
The cities went over $40 million
year for such expenses in 1949
Chief rise in cost of these pro-
grams since 1851 was due to the
increase in total Ohio cities from
113 to 139.

duced speed, but did not come to

the dense smog on the straight

Then, a truck. operated by
Harmon, smashed into the back
of Metzger's truck, killed Har-
mon. In quick succession the
cars of Hutchinson and Selig pill
ed into the back of the Harmon
truck. A tractor-trailer carrying
sweet potatoes operated by An
thony Crosse, 29, of Pennington
Park, Hammonton, Pa, came up
in back of the tangled trucks and
cars. Troopers said Grosso's ve-
hicle struck with such force, that
it went up on top of automobiles
of Hutchinson and Selig, demol-
ishing them. A truck operated
by White, which was carrying q
load of fish, piled into the five
vehicles already tangled upon the
highway and the automobile
driven by Pittman was the last
to crash into the smashed trucks
and cars. Beck was riding with
Hutchinson, and Kastro was in
the same car.

DUCK HUNTERS
CAUSE LOSSES
Annual Gripping Losses
Range from sec to $3.50
On National Basis
CITE PRACTICES

"Sportsmen throughout the ma
tion have an opportunity to bring
about an immediate increase in
the waterfowl population if they
will cooperate in an effort to re-
duce serious Gripping losses" ac-
Icording to the Atlantic Water
fowl Council of which the Della
ware Game and Fish Commission
is a member.
Millions of ducks are being
wasted annually through Grip
pling and reduction of this loss
is possible only in one way-by
the hunters themselves. Partici-
patton by each hunter in a self
imposed campaign to kill cleanly
and to recover each bird downed
is the only way the job can be
done"
To emphasize the seriousness
of this Gripping loss, figures are
cited from recent studies by a
number of State fish and game
departments. These show that
annual Gripping losses ran g e
from 8 to SO per cent, and aver
age % per cent on a national
basis for birds that are downed
IN sight of the hunter but go un-
retrieved" Obviously, the unob-
served birds which are hit but
succumb later add substantially
to the total.
ut may well be that one bird
is lost for each two that are TAX
en- home by the hunter. A clue to
these additional losses is found
in X-ray studies in the West
which show that 25 to 35 per
cent of the live ducks examined
carried shot in their body tissues.
'The problem of crippling loss
relates directly to cunning prac-
tices. That is why its solution
rests with the gunners."
According to the Council, prac-
tees which cause this crippling
loss are:

Public Hearing
On Rockville
Tank Planned

A public hearing on a $4,000
bond issue to include the cost of
construction for a new one mil
lion gallon water storage tank
was authorized by the Rockville
mayor and council Tuesday night.
Besides the $4,000 necessary
for the tank plus $1,000 engineer
ing fees, the issue will repay
100000 to the builders of Hun
gerford Town and Silver Rock for
water and sewer installations
made at their cost
This commitment, to be paid
back by front foot assessments
on the home owners, is the last
of its kind made before the city
put into effect its present pay
as-you-go" system of financing
city Improvements.
The storage tank, on the re-
commentator of the city engin-
eering staff and their consultants,
Gilbert Associates, will be located
near the pumping station on Hor
ner's lane.
This will give better water dis
tribution in the city's high pres
sure area as well as badly need
ed storage which is limited in this
area at present to 100000 gallons.
