Today is a great day for the people of ST. Croix, and we are

poor and also when driving through
shopping districts or residential
areas.
And don't relax your control
when you're on the open road" he
warned. High speed on long, mo-
notonOus stretches of road often
tends to produce somewhat h,rp-
motto effect"
He said that the combination of
monotony and speed is a factor in
many rear-end collisions, and also
figures prominently in accidents in
which vehicles roll over or skid
off the road.
Control that urge to cut loose. -
Col. Shew said. You'll live longer
and you'll get there in good time. .
Meanwhile, Clifford T. Foster,
Chairman of the financial cam
paign currently being conducted by
the Safety Council, pointed to Del
aware participation in the "Slow
Down and Live Campaign as one
of the many varied activities car
ried on by the Council to promote
safety and prevent accidents in all
fields of work, play and day-by-day
living, throughout Delaware.
The "Slow Down and Live" cam
paign is a combined education and
enforcement drive, extending from
the eve of Memorial Day through
Labor Day, thus covering summer
driving. The campaign has been
credited with holding down the ac-

Under quotas, too, price support
to growers in tine commercial area
who comply with their wheat acre
age allotments will be at the full
level available-between rs and
80 percent of parity.
If more than one-third of the
growers voting disapprove quotas,
the quotas will not be in effect,
and the available price support
on the 1857 wheat crop to those
who comply with farm wheat acre
age allOtments will be a level of
so percent of parity.
When a marketing quota pro
gram is in effect, the excess wheat
of a grower who does not comply
with his farm wheat acreage allOt-
ment and who has more than Is
acres of wheat for harvest as grain
on the farm will be subject to a
marketing quota penalty. This pen
atty will be equal to As percent OF
the May 1, 1857 parity price for
wheat.
Chairman Dukes emphasized that
the vote is on wheat marketing
quotas and not wheat allOtments.
Whether or not the vote is favor
able of the quotas, acreage allot-
ments will be in effect for the

and no makeup. She depressed us
no end and we reacted by seeing
just how irritating we could be.
The other, in spite of the fact
that she had a glass eye, always
looked attractive in colorful,
though inexpensive, dresses, and
she managed never to wear the
same dress two days in succession.
We behaved like human beings in
her classroom. Looking back, I
remember that the first poor soul
had bunions which must have hurt
badly and that she always seemed
to have a cold. She must have been
miserable enough without having
to endure our stupidity in Latin
and the constant annoyances we
thought up; but such is the cruelty
of youth that we thought the bum
ions were funny. We muddled
drearily along together through
Caesars Gallo Wars, and she
was undoubtedly as relieved as
were her pupils when the year
came to an end. Somehow, though,
we never thought of the other
teachers glass eye as being funny.
She was gay and enthusiastic
about literature and had t. knack
of making characters in fiction
come alive. All of which goes to
show that there are all kinds of
school teachers, as well as all
kinds of secretaries, nurses and
what-have-you; and it hardly
seems sporting to pick out the
worst samples in any group and
brand them as typical.
Parents get the same treatment,
to certain degree. Pupils are al
ways surprised to learn that a
teacher is as old as his mother.
Most children seem genuinely
astonished when some chance re-
mark on the part of parent re-
veals that he was once young and
gay. The slightest departure by a
parent from the pattern of be-
haviour decided upon as suitable
for "the old folks" embarrasses
the offspring no end.
There's no hope, though; it hap
pens with every generation. We
might as well grin and bear it.

There are two main causes Of
milk off-flavors in the spring sea-
son: wild onion and pasture fla
vors. These tips will help control
the flavors, give your family a
tasty, wholesome drink, and i'm
prove the milk you sell.
l. Inspect regularly for wild
onions.
2. If possible, do not Craze milk
ing herd on pasture where onions
grow. Use dry cows and heifers
to nip off the onions.
8. If onion infestation is mild,
removed the milking herd four to
six hours before you milk and
feed lots of dry roughage when it
comes off pasture.
A. Smell the milk from each cow
before pouring it together and
don't mix off-flavored milk with
the good. Some cows seem to eat
wild onions in greater quantities
than others; a few cows won't eat,
onions at all.
5. Before turning cows onto
Ladino-grass pactures, feed an
abundance of hay or other dry
roughages.
6. Keep salt and fresh water
before cows at all times.
