Mid-Winter News Of
Brownie Troop No. 13

The program for Brownie Troop
No. 13 has been rather dull through
February and March due to the
fact that girls from $40 are just
aching to do something different.
The weather has kept them indoors
and kept many of them i'll with
colds and the aftermath of such in
fections. However, all has not been
as quiet as it would seem, due to
very lovely tea given by the
Brownies to their mother. at the
home of Mrs. Richard KINNEY,
their troop leader. Acting as CO.
hostess was Mrs William Denney,
assistant troop leader. Like good
little Brownies should, the girls
served their mothers tea or cof-
fee, and the most ''yummy petits-
fours" one has ever eaten. Candy
and nuts were also an item of in
terest to the children. Most of the
mothers attended the Cea and not
only enjoyed the food and drink but
also the chatting and getting to
know one another better. We all
agreed that a good time was had
by all
This troop also entered into the
cookie sale on March 8 with the
utmost enthusiasm. I am sure that
Mrs. KINNEY was proud of their
combined efforts to help in this
annual event.
This chronicle of events ends on
hike to the VFW Home. After
planning this trip for Tuesday,
March 26, but defeated by bad wea-
ther, the girls finally met at 10 a.
m on March 2S, and left from
Southern States mill Each child
brought a package lunch, but were
served cokes at the home. I would
like to add that Mrs. Morris Ros-
ker donated potato chips and
marshmallows which made the per-
feet ending to their outdoor lunch.
l would like to thank Mrs. Den
ney, Mrs. KINNEY and Mrs. Elwood
Montgomery for accompanying the
children on this hike and also to
thank the committee chairman, Mrs.
Isaac Newton, for her share in ar
ranging and checking on details.
We are all looking forward to
some really nice weather SO that
the outdoor trips will not be COM
plicated by colds and worries re-
sulting from same.
Catherine R. Hollenbeck, public
ity chairman.

Drive Cadillac any period of time you wisheven for
lifetime if you pree-and the odds that will
question your choice of motor
For almost everyone understands the that lead
to Cadillac the in fact who does not have his
osOn heart set the "car of cars.
For Cadacs virtues simply too to be overlooked

Who for instance could behold Cadillac and not proclaim

Who could ride Cadillac and not recognize the

Corn CObs Can Be
Effective ROughage

Cattle can be fed to top profit
finish on either ground shelled
corn plus hay. or ground ear corn
serving as both grain and rough
age. IL both are supplemented ade-
quately, according to a feeding test
recently conducted by the Ralston
Purina Company.
Two hundred steers were in
volved in the test. Half of them
were fed ground shelled corn and
an alfalfa hay-molasses mixture.
This diet was supplemented with
Steer Fatena SIS.
The other hundred steers were
fed ground ear corn, with Steer
Fatena 65 mixed into the daily ra-
ton. Sufficient molasses was added
to make 1t approximately equal to
the percent of molasses in the
corn-alfalfa ration. Both groups of
steers had access to salt and min
erals.
The hundred steers getting
ground shelled corn and alfalfa
hay gained an average of $3.50
pOu0QS per udy lOi Tic lAo-ooy
feeding period. compared to 2.93-
pound average daily gain for the
hundred steers in the ground ear
corn lot. Feed costs. however, in
the ground shelled corn group a
mounted to $8O92 per head, COM
pared to s65.70 in the other lot.
Average weights in the two
groups were nearly equal at the
beginning, about 740 pounds. The
ground shelled corn steers weighed
an average of 1852 pounds at the
end. compared to 1116 in the other
group.
The differences in rate of gains
were essentially Offset by the diff
erence in feed costs in the two lots,
and net profits per animal were
nearly identical in both groups.
Steers in the ground shelled corn
group averaged $23.03 net profit
each, compared to an even $4,000
In the other lot, showing that with
proper grain supplement, cobs can
be an effective roughage in the
cattle ration.
