GUIDE FOR SELECTING
E FOODS

Fruits and vegetables require
careful selection because appear
ance, flavor and food value are
easily damaged.
ID Select fruits and vegetables
on the basis of degree of ripeness
or maturity, thus choose those
which are fresh, firm, crisp, or
good characteristic shape and
color.
CD Buy by weight whenever
possible. Largest size is not al
ways the best in eating quality and
in economy.
Co. Learn the difference be-
tween blemishes that detract only
from appearance and those that
affect eating quality. Low+priceo
fruits and vegetables which are
wilted, shriveled bruised and de-
cayed will have inferior flavor
texture, and appearance.
(4) Select variety best suited
to the way in which you intend tt
use it, such as baking, boiling, can.
ming, or serving raw.
60 Avoid handling fruits anc
vegetables any more than il
absolutely necessary.
The Sidney herald., 1961-08-02
BUYING AND r
FRESH

Servings you get from a pound
of fresh vegetables may vary con-
slderably because of pods and
other wastes plus some shrink in
cooking. For some vegetables, the
amount 10 buy for each serving
varies with whether it is to be
served raw or cooked. One pound
of green snap beans will serve
four people when cooked while
one pound of peas Gin pod) will
only serve two.
The fresher the green vegetable
when you use them, the better.
Flavor, crispness, and some food
value are lost when the vegetables
wilt or are stored. If you must
hold vegetables a day or two be-
fore using, refrigerate them. Keep
them moist - in a vegetable cris-
per or other covered container, in
the moisture-resistant bag they
came in, or in a plastic bag. Be
careful not to bruise leafy vege-
tables in storing. Store peas and
beans in the pods if possible to
keep them fresh.

keep their calves in the fall to
market later during the winter or
spring have found that creep fed
calves are ready to take feed and
will not lose condition during
weaving like calves that did not
receive summer experimentation.
AS for the type of concentrates
to use for feed in the creeps, most
rancherS use home grown grains
or commercial rationS especially
prepared for this purpose. When
using home grown grains, oats are
usually the starting feed, with
barley being added after the calves
have a good start. Many now make
it a practice to add a little molasS-
es or dried molasses beet pulp to
cereal grain. This improves palat-
ability and the calves will usually
eat more and will start on the
creepS sooner.
AS for types of creepS, ranchers
have found both homemade and
commercially made creeps will do
a good job if properly adjusted.
Most of them have some shade and
shelter.
If ranchers find their range on
the short side and the COWS are
rapidly dropping off in milk,
creep feeding should be started
without delay or calves will

CREEP FEEDING OF CALVES
STARTING EARLY

In travelling about the county,
we now find that several ranchers
have started creep feeding their
calves. Due to the short feed sup
ply and early maturity of grasses,
the cows milk supply has dropped
off faster than normal on most
ranges. Ranchers feel that in order
to keep their calves in a gaining
condition, they must get them on
grain as quickly as possible.
In addition to keeping the calves
in a gaining condition, many
ranchers feel that creep feeding
provides a couple more big adj
vantages. They tell us that the
cows themselves stay in better
condition as they are not suckled
down as much. Ranchers who

all well aware and as producers

the nation ever be subject to
nuclear attack, its food supply
and continued production would
be vital to survival.
So, to inform farm people of the
practical steps that can be taken
to protect themselves, their crops
and livestock in the event of
enemy attack, the Montana Co
operative Extension Service is
assigned the responsibility for a
statewide rural defense informa-
ton program.

recently made with the Office of

tomatoes are high in vitamins. One

IMPORTANT
FOR BEEF PRODUCERS

When heifers are bred to calve
as 3-year-olds and fail to do so,
many stockmen figure it's best to
Gull them from the herd.
Now comes research results
which indicate that stockmen are
justified in making such a deci-
sion. This research shows that for
every 100 heifers that fail to pro-
duce a calf as 3 year-olds, 20 will
fail to calve the next year too.
This what Montana Agricultural
Experiment Station and USDA
research workers found in a CO.
operative study of 80 years of
calving records at the US. Range
Livestock Experiment Station at
Miles City.
During the 80 year period near
ly 1000 heifers were bred to calve
in their third year. Of this number
some 1900 produced a calf and
had an average lifetime calf re-
cord of nearly 81 percent. Those
that didn't calve as 3 year-olds
had a lifetime calving average of
only about SIS percent.
In this experiment the COWS that
failed to calve at both 3 and A
years of age were culled.
The study also showed that cows
having their first calves at a year
averaged an SO percent lifetime
calf crop.
More detailed results of the
study will be found in the new

ITY OF BEEF CATTLE RAISED

No Mandate

Writing in U. S. News & World
Report, just after the election,
David Lawrence said: This is the
time when we are all exhorted to
let bygones be bygones and to
give our new leader the whole
hearted support of all the people.
But it is a time for more than
mere exhortation to the populace.
1t is a time to remind the success
full party and the victorious can
didates for all offices that elect
ions do not settle fundamental
issues but merely serves as vivid
reminders of the diversity of in
terests and pressures that make
up the modern political struggle" ;"
This is not earping observa-
ton. 1t takes nothing away from
Senator Kennedy's victory. But it
does spotlight a development of a
unique nature. This presidential
election, unlike any other presid-
entail election of modern times,
supplied absolutely no mandate
for a party or candidate. The
popular vote was practically even
ly divided between Mr.. Kennedy
and Mr. Nixon. A switch of a hand
full of votes would have swung the
scales the other way
Mr. Kennedy has been charged
with an awesome responsibility-
to keep this country strong, Sc
cure and free in a chaotic and
unpredicatabie world. But neither
he nor anyone else has been dir
ected by $50 million people to
make sweeping and revolutionary
changes in the philosophy on
which this nation was built, and
which has made it great The
highly vocal advocates of an ever
expanding, ever-more costly well
fare state, got nowhere in this

Nevertheless, the Comm lit e

by the Committee is the creation
of new and voluntary mechan-
ism for inter-university coopera-

Plan For Annual

dents. Many teachers and indus
trial consultants are now at work
planning with the students the
hundreds of different projects to
be displayed.
The two grand award winners
and the chairman-elect for the
