the stocking of their ranges can
have an influence on the water
supply stored in the soil, suggests
Karl Parker, Extension Range
specialist.
Heavy grazing and the accom-
panynig trampling, he says, might
reduce the rate of water intake
in range soils by as much as one
half. Recent research reports in
dictate that summer stream flow
from an experimental area was
almost entirely dependent upon
ground water reserve.
Whether this ground water re-
serve comes from melting snow,
from precipitation as rain, it's ev-
ldent that rate of grazing would
lbe an important factor in main
tanning stream flow for stock
water, irrigation, and for munich
pal and industrial use.
On this basis, Parker says it
Is reasonable to expect that range
grazed moderately will give a
100 percent yield of water. On the
other hand, the same range graz
ed heavily may yield only 20 per
cent or less lof the normal amount
of water each year.

CLUB CHRISTMAS PARTY
AT HARRY OHNSO HOME

MIR. and Mrs. Harry johnson
were hosts to their bridge club at
the annual Christmas party, which
was held at their home Sunday
evening. The Christmas theme
was effectively carried out in the
room and table decorations. Fol-
lowing a delicious no-host din
ner, the usual evening of bridge
was enjoyed. Individual high
score prizes for men and women
respectively were awarded to Stan
Dreyer and Mrs. Don CouttS, and
Mrs. Syl Braaten was awarded
the prize for low score. MIR. and

grown grains and roughages to
the best advantage. Lloyd also in
dictated his high regard for corn
silage during the start of the fat
tening period. He very interesting
ly related from his own experience
many of the changes that have
taken place in processing feeds
and the use of feed activities.
Eric Wilson, Extension Agricul-
tural Engineer at Montana State
College, explained the advan-
tages of summertime feeding in
our area climate-wise, as COM
pared to other areas of the coun-
try. He felt, however, that farm
feeders must turn to greater
mechanization in most cases due
10 the labor situation if they hope
to feed on a year-around basis.
Judging by the interest shown
by the Fairview area farmers, an
increase in livestock feeding on
"a year-around basis is certainly
anticipated. 1t is hoped that pro
grams such as presented at the
18th annual Lower Yellowstone
Feeders Day AIT Fairview will
help many to become aware of
the Importance and potential of
the livestock feeding business in
this area.

FEEDING FAVORED

The panel discussion portion of
the Fairview Feeders Day pro
gram held recently brought out
many factors favoring farm feed
ing i'm this area
Following the theme of the dis
cussion, which was elbow Can a
Farm Feeder Prosper in the Live
stock Fedeing Game?", we will
attempt now to present the main
ideas brought out by the panel
lists at the Fairview program.
First, Arne Skedsvold, feeding
representative of PVO, ait Culbert-
son, discussed the quality of our
homegrown produced and pro
cesSed feeds and the need for
using these feeds in the livestock
feeding business. He said little
experimentation is needed when
a basic ration of good quality al
falfa hay, barley, and dried mo-
IaSses beet pulp is used. This has
proven to he an excellent ration
and am economical one.
Herbert Herbison, Extension
Marketing Specialist at North Da-
kOta State University, brought out
that we have a decided advantage
in having am excellent supply of
top quality feeder cattel available
lOcally. He also brought out the
fact that the demand for red
meat was increasing and would
continue ito increase. AS he SAW
it, about the only disadvantage
we have in feeding here is the
great distance to major consump-
ton centerS. He felt, however,
that the many advantages for
feeding outweighed this one disad-
vantage.
George Strum Extension Live
stock Specialist at North Dakota
State University, centered his dis
cussion on the value of disposing
of barley Through livestock and
The Sidney herald., 1960-12-14

ON the merits of barley as a live
stock fattening feed. He felt that
farm feeding has a great future in
this area with the abundant feed
supply available locally and the
many years of "know how" gain
ed Through previous experience in
fattening livestock.
Lloyd Ludington, local area
feeder, in discussing the farm
feeding program, felt that there is
a need for more year-around
feeding ON the farm. He felt that
a farmer must feed to use home

from your
County Extension Agents

Dude, District Sanitarian, met
with a group ofinterested women
last Thursday to discuss the cur
rent outbreak of hepatitiS in this
County. DR.. Hyde pointed out the
fact that infectious hepatitiS has
been much too prevalent i'm this
area for many yeraS, and probab-
ly will continue to he a menace
until the primitive sanitation
practices are improved.
Both DR.. Hyde and MIR. DUDE
emphasized the Importance of
personal hygiene. This cannot be
oVer-emphasized. They pointed out
the fact that many sewage sys-
TENS are inadequate. If you are
in doubt about yours, contact the
RIchland County Health Office for
recommendations. Another prob
lem In many areas is improper
garbage disposal. Garbage that is
to accumulate attracts
rodents and insects. They spread
disease in many ways. Every indi-
Wdual has a responsibility to do
what he can to make Richland
County a better, healthier place
to live in We have a fine team of
workers in our Public Health De-
partment, but they can't do it all.
Let's all do our share in improv-
ing the sanitation of RichIand
County.
DR.. Hyde also stated that the
cases of hepatitis are mild, and
the public should not be alarmed.
1t is transmitted Through close
personal contact and contaminated
foods and beverages. By improv-
ing personal hygiene practices and
sanitation, the current outbreak
can he controlled.

Harrington
Band Supper

The Band Booster Club of the
Harrington Special School Dis
trict will hold a fried chicken and
dumpling supper this Saturday
night, December 10, in the School
Cafeteria with serving beginning at
4:30 Pm.
The work is under the personal
guidance of the co-chairmen of
the planning committee Mrs. Mar
ion Moore and Mrs. Virginia
Winkler, with Miss Hazel Johnson
i'm charge of the kitchen.
Proceeds from this supper will
go into fund toward the pur-
Senior High School Band. Since
there are so many uniforms to be
replaced this year, it was thought
economically unwise to invest
more money in the present type
of uniform since so many of them
are showing the signs of fourteen
years of use.
The supper is but the first in
a series of activities being planned
by the Harrington Band Boosters
Club toward it's goal of new uni
forms for each member Of the
band, and other events will be an
nounced as they are being plan
ned for the near future.
The public is cordially invited
to attend this supper. and tickets
can be secured from any member
of the bands, or, they can be
purchased at the door to the cafe
terra on Saturday.

BABSON DISCUSSES MR.. KENNEDY

ured out carefully what the popu
nedy's popularity in his respective
district
What OF The Future!
Senator Kennedy's campaign
speeches said that if Vice Presi-
dent Nixon were elected. We would
have a "do nothing" Congress dur
ing the next two years, and perhaps
during the next four years. Unless
something happens which cannot
now be foreseen, the next four
years under President Kennedy
could record a ''do nothing Con-
gress. Hence the great disappoint-
ment to him, as well as surprise
to most Democrats. This is why Mr..
Kennedy will go into the White
House restrained somewhat by the
noticeable absence of an "unre-
stricted franchise" from the peo-
pie.
Unfortunately, what happenk
during the next two years or more
may be very largely in the hands
of Mr.. Khrushchev. One cannot tell
whether he is serious, or merely
.bluffing about Berlin and his re-
lations with China and other coun-
tries such as Cuba. He surely does
not want a nuclear war; further
more, he may be replaced by Mr.
Molotov, or by someone else either
more or less radical than Mr.. Khru-
shchev. On the other hand, as Mr..
Eisenhower pointed out in his
famous Pittsburgh address, war
could start from some accidental
and unwanted incident due to the
unprecedented psychotic action
of some flyer. AS World War III
made Mr.. Roosevelt, so another
World War might make Mr.. Ken
nedy; but | am sure he does not
want it to happen in this manner.
Milford chronicle., 1960-12-09

the only real power he will now
have will be that of the veto, and
even then Congress may pass
legislation over his veto.
Election Was Too Close
Although Senator Kennedy won
a majority of the electoral votes,
these were not even unofficially
confirmed until many hours after
the polls closed. His greatest disa-
ppointment was the very close
popular vote, which has not yet
been officially determined. | will
not discuss the legal aspects of
the electoral versus the popular
vote, but | do wish to make an i'm
portant statement. Although the
popular vote in the recent election
has no legal status, it has great
moral influence. 1t surely will
cause Mr. Kennedy to remodel the
Democratic Party and the Presi-
dency. His probable program is
outlined in the Wall Street Jour
nal of November Sth, Page 10. He
may now be sorry he made GER
tain of his statements during his
campaign, as he may be forced to
back track on many of them.
His influence with Congress will
be much less than if he had won
with a fairly good popular margin
and were taking office with a man
date from the people. Therefore,
after the tremendous crowds which
met him at every city, he is espec-
tally disappointed by his failure to
capture a majority of the popular
vote. 1t will be very difficult to per-
suade Congress to pass any radical
program, even though the Repub-
licans are in the minority. A Con-
gressman takes his clues from
what the people in his district

cause of this we spent pleasant
evening November 2Sth, the even

for dinner last Monday night. This
is almost traditional with us. We
just never get our fill of seafood
and Anne and Bill usually see to
it that we have one dinner with

as it's outcome has been covered
fully by the newspapers, the broad
casting companies, and the maga-
zines during the past two or three
weeks. This is a column strictly on
the personality of Senator Kennedy.
Being a Massachusetts man, like
him, 9nd knowing his father, | can
write frankly about him personal
ly at the present time.
Senator Kennedy A Disappointed
Man
Senator Kennedy is tremendous
worker and very few rich men
would make the sacrifices which he
has personally made to secure this
election. His industrious effort
started four years ago when he
came near getting the nomination
for the Vice Presidency on the
Democratic ticket He then laid
plans and built up an organization
unequaled in any Presidential cam
palgn. The great crowds. Wh1cn ne
attracted, and his personal advis-
ers, led him to believe he would
win by a landslide. On the strength
of this, he made many statements
as to what he would do during the
Kennedy honeymoon" of one hum
dred days.
Although Senator Kennedy is
naturally pleased to be elected
President and move into the White
House next January, yet in his
heart he is much disappointed
man. He will have the honor and
prestige of being President; but
will not have the influence and
power which he had expected

Lisa Can Ride Her 'GoIdiIocks' Again
Because of Help From March of Dimes

"A magnificent fairyland
of a special kind, in which
leg aches are still known
but not felt so often as be-
fore, has just opened for
four-year-old Lisa Sliker,
of Leicester, N. Y.
"My DOCTORS" the b1ue-eyed
and auburn-haired Lisa tells
everyone today, shave made
my leg almost all well again.
Now I can sit on my horsie,
Goldilocks, and can walk to
the barn on my crutches and
see my kittens and the pigs,
The new lease on life accord
ed little Lisa is due in great
measure to the treatment she
contin6es to receive each month
at the arthritis clinical study
center at University of Roches-
ter-Strong Memorial Hospital,
established with public contri-
buttons to the March of Dimes.
Stricken three years ago with
battling rheumatoid arthritis in
her right leg, the attractive
child wore a cast for many
months but now no longer
wears it at night-although she
goes to sleep hugging my old
leg" like doll.
Lisa is one of 10000 young
sters in the United States who
are afflicted by rheumatoid ar
Thrills which interferes with
bone growth and may cause
deformity. In addition to the
study center visited by Lisa at
Rochester, March Of Dimes
funds have made possible the
opening of additional arthritis
study centers in New York
City, Dallas and San Francisco.
Mrs. Sliker recounts:
my husband and I were
scared witless when Lisa's
stumbling was diagnosed as
provoked by rheumatoid ar
Thrills, which somehow sound
ed like something that might
strike your great-grandfather.
But not strike down the beau
tiful, merry and innocent little
baby with whom God had
blessed us.
'It was a terrifying expert
ence for us to watch Lisa lying
motionless in her crib, pain in
her eyes and face but holding
back the tears. Her right knee
was swollen to unbelievable
size. But now that she is much
better and some day may walk
again unassisted by crutches,

Weekly Tree Talk
How To Choose A Christmas Tree
And Keep IL For Weeks


And Keep 1t For Weeks
A new wrinkle in keeping a
Christmas tree fresh this year is
tc spray it with an anti-wilt com
pound This reduces drying out
and shedding of needles.
Anti-wilts with a plastic or
rubber base may be purchased
from a garden supply store. Mix
ed with water, the solution forms
fine film coating that even adds
a sheen to the needles. according
to Don Cantwell, District Manager
of the Bartlett Tree Expert Co.
But first select the Christmas
tree early when the choice is wide.
Apply a freshness test at the tree
lot. Bounce the butt hard on the
ground. II needles sprinkle down
it's not fresh. Pull at the needles.
II they come off easily freshness
has gone.
Run a finger across the stump.
If it's sticky with resin that's a
sign of freshness. Fragrance is
another omen of freshness. Avoid
a tree with patches of brown
needles.
Now spread wide the lower
branches. If they're springy and
bounce back they should measure
half the trees height. The stump
should be to z inches long.
When you bring the tree home.
cut an inch or two off the stump
at a slant Peel back the bark
another inch. Then plunge the
butt into a bucket of cold water.
Keep it in this water-filled con-
tainer in a cool place-the garage
or back porch--until the tree Is
ready to be brought into the
house. Now spray on anti-wilt as
an added precaution a a in
needle drying out.
