Even white lightly soiled articles
won't come out clean when wash
ed with those that are extremely
dirty.
Temperature is important when
melting semi-sweet chocolate. Low
or moderate heat should always
be used. Due to the high content
of fat and sugar, chocolate scorch-
es easily and should not be melt
ed over direct heat.
If you're waging a weight re-
duction campaign, don't forget to
drink milk. It's important because
it contributes generous amounts
of protein and calcium. Skim
milk provides all the nutrients in
whole milk, except fat and vita
min A. And, for the calories in
one finch wedge of pie, you can
have a pint of whole milk or
almost a quart of skim milk.

W0men's Coats

f~SA SO69
Start your coat shopping at
home, whether you're thinking of
a winter coat on sale, or of a
spring coat. A well chosen coat
or suit ear be worn year after
year as long as it is presentable,
while a poorly chosen garment
often becomes a disappointment
and gets little use.
Decide what you need, the
qualities you are looking for in
a coat, the amount you plan to
spend, and have an idea of the
color you'd like and about the
style you'd want. Shop at a store
with a good reputation for good
quality merchandise and for fair
ness to customers.
Goats with moderately full
skirts are more practical than a
full styled one that drags on the
floor when you sit down. Full
coats, such as the tent or bell
shaped, and belted and short
coats, look well only on tall slim
figures. A heavy or short woman
looks taller and more slender in
straight or slightly flared full
length coats. Princess lines are
SHINING, especially good for a
tall heavy woman who wants to
look more slender. Double breast
ed coats are for the tall, slim
figure.
Watch collar heights. Collars
that are high or turned up in
the back are good for the woman
with a long neck. Low rolling
collars and c~ollarless styles are
better for short necks.
Because full, bulky sleeves have
a broadening effect, they are for
the tall, slender woman.
The popular a coats may also
be a good buy this time of year.
Remember, they look best worn
with straight skirts.

Since winter is the slack season

of course, carotene Is the vege-
table source of vitamin A that is
needed by livestock.
So be sure and save your best

least one month before the lambs
or calves start to come. Colostrum

source of vitamin A - provid-

Farm Records
With the new year just getting
under way it might be well to
say a few words about keeping
farm records. The first of the
year is a good time to start a
set of farm records or to MAXI
improvements in the system you
have been using.
There was a time when a farm
er could get along with a loose
ly kept set of records or even no
records at all. But that day is
gone and in today's complex bus
mess of farming a complete sci
of records is essential.
Not only are farm records
needed for tax purposes but they
are also valuable guides for MAX
ing improvements in the manage
ment of a farm or ranch. The in
formation they supply may often
suggest changes in the farm en-
terprises that will make for more
profitable use of land, labor and
equipment.
Just how detailed your records
need to be, of course, depends
upon your Individual set-up. The
Montana Extension Service has a
farm record book which many OPP
orators find useful and it may be
obtained through the County Ex-
tension Office.
Farm Invesmens
AS every farm operator knows,
farming today requires a big cap
ital investment. Just how much
was the objective of a study made
recently by the USDA. In Nthis
study it was found that family
farm operators need a farm in
vestment of $4,000 to $4,000 de-
pending on the location and type
of farming, to realize annual
earnings of $4,000 per year. The
$4,000 was for an Oklahoma cot
ton farm and the $4,000 was for
a Montana wheat farm. And to
realize annual earnings of $4,000,
farm investments range from
$1,000 for an Oklahoma cotton
farm to $4,000 for a Montana
wheat farm.
These differences in investment,
the survey points out, r due
to the widely varying proportions
of investment and labor required
to produce a given level of oper-
ator earnings under different sys-
TENS of farming. For example,
the Oklahoma cotton farm e
quires less than one-sixth the
investment of the Montana wheat
farm, but the amount spent an
nually for labor on the cotton
farm is more than six times that
spent on the wheat farm.
A Safety Suggestion
On cold winter mornings it is
often a temptation to warn UP
the truck, car or tractor in a
closed garage or shed. But don't
do it, ever! Open the doors, or
better yet, run the vehicle out
side where deadly carbon monox-
ide gas will not be a hazard. Car
bon monoxide is a sneaky gas,
since you can't e it, smell it
or taste il.

Use Is Not Mixed

BE Sure Seed You
Use Is Not Mixed
= The advice isn't new but its
more important than ever - be
sure the seed you plant in 1855
Is the variety you think it is.
Too often farmers find out toe
late that the seed they planted is
not the variety they believed il
TO be, or it is so badly mixed
as to variety that a satisfactory
crop Is not possible.
We would like to warn against
the practice of getting seed from
an elevator bin, or from a neigh
boris granary. These are not good
places to get your seed grain, I'M
less 1t has been tested for purity
and termination and found to be
satisfactory as to variety.
The spread of many badly mix
ed seed lots can be traced to
elevator or farm lots of which no
check was made as to purity and,
in some cases, for termination.
If every farmer would just
plant 10 percent of his acreage to
registered OF certified seed, and
then use the resulting crop for
planting his entire acreage the
following year, the problem of
mixed seed would o fade out.
In case a dependable source of
good seed OF the variety you want
is not available in this locality,
check the lists of growers at the
County Extension Office. There
is NO need for Montana farmers
to use poor seed in 1858. Supplies
of recommended spring varieties
r available at a reasonable cost.
For information on spring wheat
varieties that are particularly
adapted to this area, we suggest
you call at the County Extension
Office.
