MARCH 23, 1 GROWING RESOURCES cmo tttirfiw TH6 tMft. swnon CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENTS "Do very young children reall worry much about being snubbed others or not being wanted as play mates?" queried Fanny Ferguson her friend, Jane Chadd, who was a preschool teacher. Jane smilled, "Developing techniques for being included in the desired social grouping is a mighty important preoccupation of my four-year-olds. Just the other day Dick and Tim built a very passable box house and told Eric he couldn't live in it with them. Eric stood looking at them for a moment a hurt expression of longing, then came over to me and asked timidly, 'Can I play with them 1' Knowing that Eric had an ingenious little mind of his own I answered, 'You think about it for a minute Eric, just think what kind of a friend Dick and Tim would like to have play with them! Eric just stood around for a minute or two, then he went over and peered into the house with confident bearing, 'Say, that's a nice house you've got.

There's just room for three in there, isn't Dick responded immediately, 'Sure, it's a swell house, come and see what we got in and in no time at all Eric was a member of an actively co-operating trio of house- builders. A minute or two later as I passed by the house Eric looked up at me with a very quiet smile and said, that all You may be sure I gave him an answering smile and a nod, for Eric had learned a mighty big lesson for one day. Those are the sorts of problems loom large in the life of the four-year-old." PENTECOSTAL CHURCH Alfred Anderson, Pastor Sunday school 10 o'clock. Evening meeting 8 o'clock. THE BAPTIST CHURCH Rev.

Washington, D. speech made by your last week in behalf of amending the National Relations Act has called down the wrath of some of the CIO leaders on his head. The statement was based on the wu strike at the Swift Packing Plant in Sioux City, causing the spoilage of thousands of dollars worth of meat and plunging Sioux City into a disturbing industrial situation for a period of several weeks. Now I have no quarrel with the OIU, but I have with a law which breeds such things as the "sitdown" strikes and the storm of industrial terror that swept over the country a couple of years ago.

The general opinion down here seems to be that the cause of la- ibor has been retarded by such a 'probably more by the administration of it than the law itself and there a movement on foot to amend the Act. The American Federation of Labor is solidly behind this movement.

Seed treating centers in this area will be of great service to farmers, not only in insuring better stands when soil organisms are destructive, but also in controlling such seed borne diseases as oat smuts, covered smut of barley, barley stripe and stinking smut of wheat. The seed cleaning service will prove valuable in ridding seed grain of such noxious and destructive weed seeds as If von rnti r-ai MCI-I- bloats von up try Onr dose tisuallv on hcnrt.

extension animal husbandman and specialist from Iowa State College, will discuss lamb marketing and feeding well as disease control. According- in reports from southern and eastern Iowa very substantial returns can be received from a quality lamb program properly managed with lambs sold in June. Usually the sale of the fleece will take care of the cost of keeping the ewe for the year. The average feed cost for lambs marketed in June is approximately $2.00. This would give a net return of from $4.00 to $5.00 per head under present prices.

Labor Board Prejudiced My criticism was confined largely to the high-handed tactics of the Labor Board. This outfit seems to function as its own prosecuting attorney, judge and jury. The feeling exists that it is "packed" against the American Federation of Labor, the employer and the public.

There is no appeal from its findings except where technical errors of court procedure have been made, and its policy, contrary to the old- fashioned American way, seems to presume that every employer is guilty until found innocent. Almost invariably the employer is "convicted. No one questions the right of labor to organize freely and, bargain collectively. However, the real friends of that includes the A. F.

of leaders realize that kangaroo courts and terrorist tactics in industrial relations can lead to one end-as it has in Germany and ing at that! GET CORN, SOYBEANS SEPARATELY seed alone from seed grain. Seed treatment of barley is of particular importance to Sioux county farmers to i Planting soybeans with corn that is to be hogged-down or put into a silo is not recognized as a profitable practice by experienced livestock men, reports C. C. Culbertson, animal husbandman at Iowa State College. When planted together neither the corn nor soybeans grow as well as when each is planted alone, i Culbertson says that when tests at the experiment station were made soybeans reduced corn yields as much as 5 bushels an acre in a year of ample rainfall.

When soybeans are planted to fui- nish a home-grown protein supplement Culbertson says the best practice is to plant a strip of beans along one side of the field that is to be hogged-down because the 1 quality is too inferior for malting. By treating, many of the diseases that lower the quality can be controlled. Sioux county farmers attended barley disease control meetings held at Orange City, Sioux Center, Hospers, Boyden, Rock Valley and Hawarden. Sioux county farmers are urged to give seed treatment and cleaning "serious consideration" before sowing their grain this spring. Complete information of the value of seed treating and cleaning can be obtained from the county agent's office.

Unintentionally, but inevitably, this act imposed hardships on certain classes of little fellows and the Administrator of the law now shows a willingness to eliminate these hardships wherever possible. One such exception will be the rural telephone exchanges, usually manned by one all-night operator, whose existence is indispensable to the safety, security and welfare of rural communities. Several weeks ago I introduced a bill to exempt rural telephone exchanges having less than 1,000 subscribers from the provisions of the Wage-Hour Act. The bill was referred to the Labor Committee and to the Wage-Hour Administration, and I have just learned that they are inclined to recommend this exemption.

This is good news to hundreds of country exchanges as well as to thousands of rural subscribers in the state of Iowa. Now is the time to cubscribe.

Bushels Cut From Oat Yield For Each Day of Delay In Seeding Ames "A bushel a day is taken this is the penalty for each acre of oats sown late, tests at the Iowa Agricultural Experiment Station show.

"If the oats can't be sown early, the smartest thing to do is sow barley," says L. C. Burnett. "While most barley varieties are also affected adversely by late sowing, the effect is not so great as for oats." Over a period of 4 years, 10 oat varieties at Ames showed an average loss in yield of 11.76 bushels per acre due to 11 days delay in sowing (mlddlo of April instead of the first). Nine varieties of barley over a 5-year period showed a reduction of only 3.23 bushels per acre for 12 days delay in sow' ing.

Velvet and Glabron did not show any decrease by delaying the seeding until the middle of April. Delay beyond that date, however, resulted in increasingly heavy losses. Of the common oat varieties, Gopher showed tho least loss from late seeding. For Tilgner garage building. See Amos Green.

Emmert. More REA Projects "Juice" for electric light and power will be brought to 750 additional farm homes of the ninth district in the near future as a result of recent allotments by the Rural Electrification for projects in Plymouth and Ida counties. Move than 300 miles of wire will be strung to service these farmers. Of all the numerous enactments of the New Deal, I believe there is less criticism of REA than any othehr agency. This agency opened up a new field which apparently the private utilities did not find profitable to tap and brought the comfort and convenience of electricity to hundreds of thousands of farms.

New Scrip System Citizens on relief may soon be en" food conunod- Uy me WDC 1 posed by Secretary Wallace and indorsed by the grocery trade is soon to be tried out in a few key cities. It something like this: Suppose a man on WPA receives $20.00 twice a month. Instead of a $20 pay check he would be offered the choice of accepting $12 in cash and in government coupons good for the purchase of any kind of food at any grocery store, PLUS $4.00 in a different kind of coupon good only for groceries representing products which have been designated as surplus. Instead of $20 every pay day he would be receiving the equivalent of $24, but $12 would have to be spent for food and $4 of the $12 for foods of which there is a national surplus. Commodities designated as "surplus" might be pork, potatoes, oranges or milk or any other product overproduced in such quantities as to depress its price on the open market.

The idea is to enable and encourage people on relief to eat more and better food and, at the same time, help re. Trlft Raise Every Chick! Strong, health chicks with Sergent improved vitimiz Starting Mash. Increase you Northwest Iowa Seed Co. Fov Sale barley. Phone 36-F4.
