JAMES TOBIN SEW NEW II. 100 NtutNM By JOYCE SMITH Extension Agent I've heard so much lately about sewing with sheets. Some sheets are quite expensive, so is it really more economical to use them instead of regular yard goods? P.M., Syracuse. Your question is very good and one that several other home sewers have expressed to me. I would say the answer is relative depending on the kind and quality of fabric you want and the size and design of the sheet you select.

Basically, one is quite limited in type of fabric when buying sheets. There is a choice of percale or muslin. If these fabrics fit your needs, then by all means consider sheets for fabric. Sheets offer a similar quality of percale that you might buy in most fabric stores. Fiber contents are similar although most sheets have slightly less polyester than some cotton polyester blends in yard goods.

Also, sheets are now permanent press for ease of care. Designs may be somewhat limiting. Sheets generally have all over small designs, especially floral motifs that tend to look like sheet material. Also, be careful that the larger sheet designs aren't too big in scale, especially for short people or children. Your question about the cost of sheets versus yard goods is valid.

If a larger piece of fabric is needed to delineate a seam, a sheet may be desirable. King and queen size sheets are expensive. In fact, in some instances, two twin sheets can be purchased for less than the cost of an extra large sheet and provide greater total yardage. Some sheet yardage will be less expensive than that for standard yard goods. As with any purchase, consider your needs carefully and remember there is no saving if you don't like what you bought even if it was less expensive.

Having any fabric or clothing problems? Send them to Joyce Smith, Cooperative Extension, 1050 W. Genesee Street, Syracuse, NY 13204, and watch for the answer to appear in this column.

More than 60 people from the media, American Dairy Association, Central New York Dairy Council, and community gathered at Henry Venier 400 acre dairy farm to picnic on barbecued chicken, baked beans fresh rolls and spinach and fruit salads. Milk punch, cottage cheese, milk, butter and ice cream were abundant, of course. Featured speaker at the event was J. Roger Barber, commis sionerof the State Department of Agriculture and Markets Basing his speech on the American Dairy Association slogan of "Milk is a natural," Barber said milk satifies the consumers demands for a food product that has no preservatives or additives other than those needed for health or sanitary reasons. "I think it is fair to say," he said, "that what appeared to be a real crisis of an oversuppiy of milk has been alleviated by an increasing demand for cheese." 59 CtWr, Shtf.

He pointed out that no New York State dairymen's dollars are used to promote cheese. "Although milk consumption is slightly up from a year ago, I would say it is holding. Cheese consumption is up every year," he added. Chairwoman of the luncheon was Harriett Gavenda, director of the Dairy, Food and Nutrition Council.

Assisting her was Eleanor Lynch of the home service division of Niagara Mohawk Power Corp. Introductions were made by William M. Quinn, agricultural program leader for the Cooperative Extension. At the conclusion of the program, members of the audience were given an exam on "Cow College Knowledge," in which they guessed the weight, age, milk production, and feed eaten by one of Venier' Guernseys. Afterward, Venier led the group on a tour of his farm where members of the highest classified Guernsey herd in this country make their home.

Juvenile Justice System Failing Representatives from sixty major national voluntary organizations in the social welfare field recently met in Washington, D.C.. to discuss the complex juvenile justice system. The concern, generated by the National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW), is that the system is currently failing to meet the needs and rights of the child. KAREN GUBMAN Karen Gubman, Syracuse section, participated in the three day "Symposium on Status Offenders" as the New York State Public Affairs vice chairwoman of the NCJW. The symposium, sponsored by NCJW under a grant from the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration of the U.S.

Department of Justice and the Greater Dallas Section of NCJW, was designed to produce a consensus on strategies to be implemented at the state and community level under the provisions of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974. Leaders of professional and research organizations in the juvenile justice field met with the volunteers to decide on viable alternatives. Through a series of small group work sessions they reached a consensus on three basic issues: the need to provide services to all youngsters who request them; a need to monitor the accessibility and qualitv of these services; and the need to reconsider and revise legislation pertaining to children so that children rights and options are increased with equal treatment under the law. Last year the NCJW published "Children Without Justice." a nationwide survey of the juvenile justice system conducted by 3,000 volunteers. The report concluded that the system was failing the young and suggested that responsibility for change rest with the community.

"Our organization with a combined membership the Mrs. Gubman said, "can provide the public awareness programs and the political strength to advance the goals we share in common with respect to the improvement of the philosophy, structure, coordination and delivery of services that affect Dear Abby writes for you on the Family Living pages.

PM. 1776 Thk Post Standard Family Living NEWS: 473 7912 May 28, 1978 Lois Votburgh, Editor Dear Abby mprove Marriage By ABIGAIL VAN BUREN DEAR ABBY: I am not trying to justify my getting involved with another man, but maybe if you knew what my husband was like, you wouldn't blame me.

I have been married less than five years, and my husband stopped paying attention to me about two years ago. His whole life is sports and running with his unmarried pals. We have one preschool child. I became so lonely and frustrated that I took up with a man I met while he was demonstrating something in a nearby shopping center (don't say where). Anyway, this new man in my life has been coming to my home during the daytime while my husband is at work, and I've never been happier! He single and wants me to leave my husband for him.

Abby, I'm only 25 and have my whole life before me. What should I do? CONSIDERING A CHANGE DEAR CONSIDERING: First try to improve your marriage through professional counseling. The new man in your life may provide lOtne temporary excitement, bat all you really know about Urn is that he spends his aftenoevs with married women while their husbands work. Is THAT the kind of man you want for a husband? Think it over, DEAR ABBY: Three cheers for the city of Duluth, Persons caught shoplifting used to be sentenced to clean the cages at the Duluth zoo. Last winter they started something new: Instead of cleaning cages, shoplifters were sentenced to 40 hours of shoveling snow outside the residences of elderly citizens and the infirm.

Now the city gets free labor by putting the law violators to work doing something useful. DIZZY IZZY IN DULUTH DEAR DIZZY: Great idea! And in the summer, let 'em rake leaves. (Personally, I'd prefer shoveling and raking to cleaning cages in a too.)
