Consumers Michigan apple producers hava prepared the Wolverine state for "Apple Week." October 28 to No- vember 2, as well as an entire win- ter of apple-eating pleasure. Between seven and tight million bushels of tha highest quality apples In history are being h«r- vested, marketed amd stored by Michigan producers this fall. Hor- ticulture department officials at Michigan State college . and M. B. Parley of the Michigan Apple com- mission, say the quality of the crop has never been better. High quality is credited to two things. First, the excallant control of worms and insects through the use of DDT. But of outstanding Importance was the intense inter- est shown by the growers In spray and cultural programa that would produce a better product. Last year's short crop was alsp of In- ferlor quality. So Michigan's apple producers w.ere determined to do better by their consumers and a high quality crop it the result The International Apple associ- ation has again set aside the week which includaa Hallowee'n at "Apple Week." Apples are rich in vitamin A and vitamin C, and are among the moil healthful and economical fruits. Michigan ordinarily ranks fifth or sixth among the high producing apple states In the uAted States. Sn the United Statea aa a whcla, the crop is about average this year and bated on population will provide every perton with three apples a week throughout tha year. While processors use many apptee for canning purposes, there win be more fresh apples available to buy- ers in Michigan this year than In several years. Grid Fans Buoyant. Red Devils improve Put up Good Fight Tbv Lowell Red Devils gave the local fans something to cheer about when they made the league leading Bockford Rams go all out to win a 84 to 20 victory at Becreatlon Park, Friday night. For the Bth consecutive time Lowell lost the toss, and wa* forced to kick off to ths visitors. Bock- ford, without rellngulshing the ball, marched the length of. the field for a touchBown, while local fana prepared themselves for a dismal evening. After receiving the kick the Lowell attack started to hit on all eleven, to rock the Bam» back and score a touchdown to tie the score 7 to 7, at the first quar- ter. After scoring their first touch- down of the saaaon, the Red Devils amased the fans by scoring again to go Into a 14 to 7 lead, which they held till five seconda before half time when Rockford punched over a touchdown to throw the contest Into a 14^to 14 deadlock at mid-game. The hard-pressed Rams came back to score twice In the 8rd per- iod before Lowell could manufac- ture another marker of their own, making the acore 28 to 20 as the 4th quarter got under way. The Rams added another touchdown in the 4th period to finish up 'the eve- ningNs scoring and take another step toward the Grand Valley Championship. This w v by far the best showing for the Red Devila for the season. Borgerson, promoted from the Bone Cruphers, gave a good ac- count of himself, as did Bishop, In the backfleld. The Lowell line per- formed better on offense but was still a bit weak on defense. Thle week Lowell plays host to Godwin In a tilt moved up to Thursday night because of the Teacher's Institute.

There are exceptions of course, particularly farmers who have had some rather unsatlifacto'ry experiences with hunters in the past. The sportsmari's rules of court- esy and safety will do much to net him a return Invitation to enjoy a farmer's hospitality for hunting. According to A. O. Haugen, farm game extension specialist with the Michigan State college extension service end Michigan department of conservation, some good rules of hunter's etiquette are: 1. Always ask a farmer's per- mission before you hunt on his land. 2. Leave your car In the farm- er's yard. 8. Always climb fences at a post. 4. Close gates when you use them. 5. Do not shoot near the build- ings or livestock. 6. Be extremely careful with matches or burning tobacco so as not to cause a fire. 7. Pay the farmer as much re- spect as you would expect him to respect you and your property. Mrs Newton Coons Passes at Age 76 Fannie R Coons, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. George F. White, passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Marcus Putnam, In Eaton Rapids, Sunday, October 20, at the age of 76 yeare, after a long and painful illness. Fannie B. White waa born In Grattan tWp., Kent county, Mich., November 20, 1889. She waa united In marriage to Newton L. Coons In 1891 and lived the greater part of her life in Lowell and vicinity. Mrs. Coons has been an lr>valid for the past 6V4 years and practi- cally helpless during the past six months, during which time she has been. constantly and untiringly cared for by her husband. She bore her illness bravely and cheerfully, always greeting her friends with a smile.

Goal Reached Here In Pension Fund For Methodist Ministers The Lowell and Vergennes Meth- odist churches, along with all oth- ers In the Michigan conference, have completed their campaign for the ministers' reserve pension fund. The local churches have accepted their allotment of 81884 and hope to exceed It by 40 percent so aa to assure complete victory In this project which means retired minis- ters will be given substantial aid In their sunset years. As has been state*! on several scaslons alnce thte plan was okayed at the Michigan conference In Grand Rapids, the raising of such,a fund Is not charity, It is really providing retirement pay for a group of faithful men who were greatly underpaid In the prime of service. Social security protects the In- dustrial Workers, retirement an- nuities have been provided for most of our vocational joba. Un- til now, our ministers have been forgotten public servants In their declining years. General chairman, D. A. Wln- geler, of Lowell Methodist church and D. A McPherson, of Ver- gennes Methodist church, were In charge of raising the opportion- ments. ' ! Mission at St. Mary's Begins Next Sunday Continues One Week The Reverend Fr.

Thought for Ths Week When things go wrong, men turn to Christ When ambition founders, when wealth it lott when health declines, when glory wanes, when pleasure Is turned to gall, then men seek Christ Sweet Lord, there is infinite pathos in that appeal.—by the Rev. Fr. Cratz. Daniel Weaver, 89, Dies Near Freeport Daniel Weaver, 89, widely known as a farmer of near Freeport for 66 years, died unexpectedly Mon- day evening at his home. He and his wife last month cele- brated their seventy-second wed- ding anniversary. Both were born In Somorest county. Pa., and were married In Johnston, Pa., when both were 17 years old, moving to a farm three miles from their pre- sent home a few years later.

Proposal-No. 2 Pros and Cons Adopting Amendment Will Without Doubt Lead to Still Higher Taxes Pt 0«M> AUemma, SM'jr.-MaMcrr MiehJgma PTBM AmchitlBa Public schools of Michigan will gain on November 5, regardless of how voters decide the fate of bal- lot proposal No. 2. This proposal would amend the state constitution whereby 76 per- cent of all sales tax revenues would be earmarked for local govern- ments. Schools would get approxi- mately $100,000,000 a year compar- ed with 160,000,000 in 1048-46. Cities, villages and townships would got 147,000,000 Instead of ,820.000.000. If the ballot proposal carries— and the Michigan Education As- sociation believes it has a 60-50 chance of so doing—then scnoul teachers will rejoice. Ko more leg- islative lobbying for funds! Tho state constitution will guarantee In perpetuity—as long as the a- mendment stands—a big boost In money for payment of salaries and other eapenses. School teachers are underpaid In this postwar Inflation period, as compared with the rest of our wage earners. Property owners balk at lifting the 15-mlll limitation on property taxes. The amendment would offer a happy solution for public education. No doubt about that If the ballot proposal Is defeated by voters who fear It would lead to additional taxes In 1947, then the schools still stand an excellent chance of getting more funds at Lansing. The straw In the wind to this conclusion is provided by Rep. John P. Esple of Eagle, chairman of the powerful house ways and means committee of the State Leg- islature. Esple believes the amend- ment Is bad legislation. He warns that the atate government cannot function with only 24 percent of the sales tax revenue. However, he recommends that Hate aid to schools be Increased from 160,000.000 to $75,000,000 or $80,000,000 a year, a boost of 25 to 33 percent Efep.'e also favors state aid for new building? In school districts financially unable to construct necessary additions because of In- creased population. It Is the judgment of State Trpa- surer D. Hale Burke, Republican nominee for re-election and presi- dent of the Michigan Institute of Local Government that adoption of the sales tax amendment would lead sto a $21,500,000 deficit for the first year of operation of state government. If the $270,000,000 veterans' bon- us Is also approved, the treasury deficit would be $89,114,000, Brake warns. 1 "You cannot stop caring for the Insane, running the prison." pay- ing old-age assistance, educate your veterans, and the thousand and one things state government Is do- ing for the people of Michigan." he said. "People Just won't stand for It" Brake predicts more taxes. If the tax amendment carries. LEDGER ENTRIES Halloween Traditions Many curious enstoma have de- scended to the modern world from ancient times, observed on the last day of October, known as Halloween. As the night before the observance of All Saints day, dedicated to the honor and memory of many saints and martyrs, the attention of the people was turned to those who had departed this life. 1 According to ancient Ideas, many spirits of former living persons were supposed to haunt their form- |er dwelling places, so that weird and mysterious things would be likely to occur. These spirits of tha dead were supposed to be accom- panned by Witches, devils and mis- chief making elves. With these su- pernatural visitors supposed to be wandering around. It was thought to be a good time for obtaining re- velations about the future. One typical specimen of these old ideas was the superstition that if on Halloween at midnight one would go down the cellar staira backward with a mirror held up before one's face, he would be re-, fleeted In that mirror the face of the person who wat destined to ha her husband or his wife. Wheth- er anyone ever saw such a .face on performing this stunt Is not known to us. Probably many persons in those days when superstitions were prevalent, were too scared to at- tempt this trick. It Is a sign of the greater intelli- gence of modern times, that many old superstltloua Ideas have faded out of the public mind. The Idea that witches and devils wander abroad and perform tricks on such an occasion Is laughed at today. So If mischief making things are done at Halloween, the modern world knows they were not per- petrated by any mischief loving witches or elves, but by very hu- man youngsters of one's own neigh- borhood, whose piay spirit soms- tlmes gets out of bounds. HUNTING ACCIDENTS Nearly all the men and boys who go out in the woods and fields in pursuit of game return greatly benefited In health and spirits. Oc- casionally some accident happens, and a hunter may be seriously hurt or possibly in some cases lose his life. The people who handle fire- arms need to remember the care needed In using these weapons. Hunters who fire when they see a movement In the bushes, with- out seeing whether that movement Is caused by the game or by a hunt- er, are taking rjsks of trouble. So many hunters are out In pursuit of game, that the chances of acci- dent need to be comiantly helj In mind.

Ford, director of the University of Michigan's bureau of government points out that school benefits under the tax amendment would depend on whether or not total local property tax levels stay at their present level of $71,500,000 for the entire stats.- "If these levies are reduced, as I they may be In school districts, revenues for schools will not be in- creased as much by adoption of the amendment aw is now antici- pated. Likewise, if the state should decide to Impose additional taxes to maintain existing services, resi- dents of school districts would have to pay more taxes." Ford also pointed out that the hope of financial gains for cities, villages and townships may turn out to be a mirage. The state now returns all of the proceeds of the Intangible tax and the new 10 per- cent tax on liquor to cities, vil- lages and townships. The combined yield amounts to $18,000,000. "It la conceivable that the rtate legislature might amend the law to retain all of the proceeds of these two taxes for state purposes." he explains. "If so. the gains to local units would be almost entirely nul- lified." The Detroit bureau of govern- mental research takes much the same view. In an announcement December 9, the bureau declares that the adoption of the tax diversion a- mendment win lead inevitably toj mote taxes. 1 "As things now stand, the school lobby has been the most successful (continued on page 8) To Mr. and Mrs Ed.

FIFTY-FOURTH YEAR LOWELL, MICHMUN, THURSDAY, OCT. 24, 1946 NUMBER 26

Higb Quality Apple Harvest Ready for

Midi. Consumers Michigan apple producers hava

prepared the Wolverine state for "Apple Week." October 28 to No-vember 2, as well as an entire win-ter of apple-eating pleasure.

Between seven and tight million bushels of tha highest quality apples In history are being h«r-vested, marketed amd stored by Michigan producers this fall. Hor-ticulture department officials a t Michigan State college . and M. B. Parley of the Michigan Apple com-mission, say the quality of the crop has never been better.

High quality is credited to two things. First, the excallant control of worms and insects through the use of DDT. But of outstanding Importance was the intense inter-est shown by the growers In spray and cultural programa that would produce a better product. Last year's short crop was alsp of In-ferlor quality. So Michigan's apple producers w.ere determined to do better by their consumers and a high quality crop it the result

The International Apple associ-ation has again set aside the week which includaa Hallowee'n a t "Apple Week." Apples are rich in vitamin A and vitamin C, and are among the moil healthful and economical fruits.

Michigan ordinarily ranks fifth or sixth among the high producing apple states In the uAted States. Sn the United Statea aa a whcla, the crop is about average this year and bated on population will provide every perton with three apples a week throughout tha year.

While processors use many apptee for canning purposes, there w i n be more fresh apples available to buy-ers in Michigan this year than In several years.

Grid Fans Buoyant. Red Devils improve

Put up Good Fight Tbv Lowell Red Devils gave the

local fans something to cheer about when they made the league leading Bockford Rams go all out to win a 84 to 20 victory at Becreatlon Park, Friday night.

For the Bth consecutive time Lowell lost the toss, and wa* forced to kick off to ths visitors. Bock-ford, without rellngulshing the ball, marched the length of. the field for a touchBown, while local fana prepared themselves for a dismal evening. After receiving the kick the Lowell attack started to hit on all eleven, to rock the Bam» back and score a touchdown to tie the score 7 to 7, at the first quar-ter.

After scoring their first touch-down of the saaaon, the Red Devils amased the fans by scoring again to go Into a 14 to 7 lead, which they held till five seconda before half time when Rockford punched over a touchdown to throw the contest Into a 14^to 14 deadlock at mid-game.

The hard-pressed Rams came back to score twice In the 8rd per-iod before Lowell could manufac-ture another marker of their own, making the acore 28 to 20 as the 4th quarter got under way. The Rams added another touchdown in the 4th period to finish up ' the eve-ningNs scoring and take another step toward the Grand Valley Championship.

This w v by far the best showing for the Red Devila for the season. Borgerson, promoted f r o m the Bone Cruphers, gave a good ac-count of himself, as did Bishop, In the backfleld. The Lowell line per-formed better on offense but was still a bit weak on defense.

Farmers Expect Hunters To Show Courtesy, Etc.

Most farmers are hospitable folks and readily grant permission for hunting on their farms. There are exceptions of course, particularly farmers who have had some rather unsatlifacto'ry experiences w i t h hunters in the past.

The sportsmari's rules of court-esy and safety will do much to net him a return Invitation to enjoy a farmer's hospitality for hunting.

According to A. O. Haugen, farm game extension specialist with the Michigan State college extension service end Michigan department of conservation, some good rules of hunter's etiquette are:

1. Always ask a farmer's per-mission before you hunt on his land.

2. Leave your car In the farm-er's yard.

8. Always climb fences at a post. 4. Close gates when you use

them. 5. Do not shoot near the build-

ings or livestock. 6. Be extremely careful with

matches or burning tobacco so as not to cause a fire.

7. Pay the farmer as much re-spect as you would expect him to respect you and your property.

Goal Reached Here In Pension Fund For

Methodist Ministers The Lowell and Vergennes Meth-

odist churches, along with all oth-ers In the Michigan conference, have completed their campaign for the ministers' reserve pension fund. The local churches have accepted their allotment of 81884 and hope to exceed It by 40 percent so aa to assure complete victory In this project which means retired minis-ters will be given substantial aid In their sunset years.

As has been state*! on several scaslons alnce thte plan was

okayed at the Michigan conference In Grand Rapids, the raising of such,a fund Is not charity, It is really providing retirement pay for a group of faithful men who were greatly underpaid In the prime of service.

Social security protects the In-dustrial Workers, retirement an-nuities have been provided for most of our vocational joba. Un-til now, our ministers have been forgotten public servants In their declining years.

General chairman, D. A. Wln-geler, of Lowell Methodist church and D. A McPherson, of Ver-gennes Methodist church, were In charge of raising the opportion-ments. ' !

Proposal-No. 2 Pros and Cons

Adopting Amendment Will Without Doubt Lead to

Still Higher Taxes Pt 0«M> AUemma, SM'jr.-MaMcrr

MiehJgma PTBM AmchitlBa

Public schools of Michigan will gain on November 5, regardless of how voters decide the fate of bal-lot proposal No. 2.

This proposal would amend the state constitution whereby 76 per-cent of all sales tax revenues would be earmarked for local govern-ments. Schools would get approxi-mately $100,000,000 a year compar-ed with 160,000,000 in 1048-46. Cities, villages and townships would got 147,000,000 Instead of ,820.000.000.

If the ballot proposal carries— and the Michigan Education As-sociation believes it has a 60-50 chance of so doing—then scnoul teachers will rejoice. Ko more leg-islative lobbying for funds! Tho state constitution will guarantee In perpetuity—as long as the a-mendment stands—a big boost In money for payment of salaries and other eapenses.

School teachers are underpaid In this postwar Inflation period, as compared with the rest of our wage earners. Property owners balk at lifting the 15-mlll limitation on property taxes. The amendment would offer a happy solution for public education. No doubt about t h a t

If the ballot proposal Is defeated by voters who fear It would lead to additional taxes In 1947, then the schools still stand an excellent chance of getting more funds at Lansing.

The straw In the wind to this conclusion is provided by Rep. John P. Esple of Eagle, chairman of the powerful house ways and means committee of the State Leg-islature. Esple believes the amend-ment Is bad legislation. He warns that the atate government cannot function with only 24 percent of the sales tax revenue.

However, he recommends that Hate aid to schools be Increased from 160,000.000 to $75,000,000 or $80,000,000 a year, a boost of 25 to 33 percent

Efep.'e also favors state aid for new building? In school districts financially unable to construct necessary additions because of In-creased population.

It Is the judgment of State Trpa-surer D. Hale Burke, Republican nominee for re-election and presi-dent of the Michigan Institute of Local Government that adoption of the sales tax amendment would lead sto a $21,500,000 deficit for the first year of operation of state government.

If the $270,000,000 veterans' bon-us Is also approved, the treasury deficit would be $89,114,000, Brake warns. 1

"You cannot stop caring for the Insane, running the prison." pay-ing old-age assistance, educate your veterans, and the thousand and one things state government Is do-ing for the people of Michigan." he said. "People Just won't stand for I t"

Brake predicts more taxes. If the tax amendment carries.

Halloween Traditions

Many curious enstoma have de-scended to the modern world from ancient times, observed on the last day of October, known as Halloween. As the night before the observance of All Saints day, dedicated to the honor and memory of many saints and martyrs, the attention of the people was turned to those who had departed this life. 1

According to ancient Ideas, many spirits of former living persons were supposed to haunt their form-

|er dwelling places, so that weird and mysterious things would be likely to occur. These spirits of tha dead were supposed to be accom-panned by Witches, devils and mis-chief making elves. With these su-pernatural visitors supposed to be wandering around. It was thought to be a good time for obtaining re-velations about the future.

One typical specimen of these old ideas was the superstition that if on Halloween at midnight one would go down the cellar staira backward with a mirror held up before one's face, he would be re-, fleeted In that mirror the face of the person who wat destined to ha her husband or his wife. Wheth-er anyone ever saw such a .face on performing this stunt Is not known to us. Probably many persons in those days when superstitions were prevalent, were too scared to at-tempt this trick.

It Is a sign of the greater intelli-gence of modern times, that many old superstltloua Ideas have faded out of the public mind. The Idea that witches and devils wander abroad and perform tricks on such an occasion Is laughed at today.

So If mischief making things are done at Halloween, the modern world knows they were not per-petrated by any mischief loving witches or elves, but by very hu-man youngsters of one's own neigh-borhood, whose piay spirit soms-tlmes gets out of bounds.

HUNTING ACCIDENTS

Nearly all the men and boys who go out in the woods and fields in pursuit of game return greatly benefited In health and spirits. Oc-casionally some accident happens, and a hunter may be seriously hurt or possibly in some cases lose his life. The people who handle fire-arms need to remember the care needed In using these weapons.

Hunters who fire when they see a movement In the bushes, with-out seeing whether that movement Is caused by the game or by a hunt-er, are taking rjsks of trouble. So many hunters are out In pursuit of game, that the chances of acci-dent need to be comiantly he l j In mind.

Robert S. Ford, director of the University of Michigan's bureau of government points out that school benefits under the tax amendment would depend on whether or not total local property tax levels stay at their present level of $71,500,000 for the entire stats.-

"If these levies are reduced, as I they may be In school districts, revenues for schools will not be in-creased as much by adoption of the amendment aw is now antici-pated. Likewise, if the state should decide to Impose additional taxes to maintain existing services, resi-dents of school districts would have to pay more taxes."

Ford also pointed out that the hope of financial gains for cities, villages and townships may turn out to be a mirage. The state now returns all of the proceeds of the Intangible tax and the new 10 per-cent tax on liquor to cities, vil-lages and townships. The combined yield amounts to $18,000,000.

"It la conceivable that the rtate legislature might amend the law to retain all of the proceeds of these two taxes for state purposes." he explains. "If so. the gains to local units would be almost entirely nul-lified."

The Detroit bureau of govern-mental research takes much the same view.

In an announcement December 9, the bureau declares that the adoption of the tax diversion a-mendment win lead inevitably to j mote taxes. 1

GIVE VANDENBERG CREDIT —From CosaopoUa Vigilant:

"A lot of people have probably forgotten that Senator Vandenberg of Michigan la called the "father of bank deposit Insurance." It was he who pushed this bill through the U. S. Senate and thus gave to every bank depositor insurance upon his deposits up to five thou-sand dollars. Senator Vandenberg Is entitled to be called the "father" of this Insurance which makes safe the fund0 of most bank depotUors, and this should not be forgotten. It should also be remembered that President Roosevelt opposed It and then later when he saw what a blessing H was, tried to claim cred-it for I t Michigan ha« the strong-est team of U. B. Senators of any state In the union—Vandenberg and Ferguson—and we want to keep It that way."

Hindrances to a Revival'

What elae la a hindrance, beside complacency? Today we can con-sider the hindrance of:

II. Confusion: We are confused over personalities. "Who am I?" aaked Moses ( and ths same is nak-ed by ua today). But, It is not I but God working through us, that will do the seemingly imposribls. God is the supreme personality in-volved, not man.

Confusion over power. Moses had a rod, which God used as a sign. Today men look for £. sign. That sign in today's spiritual warfare la the presence of God within His peo-ple. We have no power, innately

It comes from Heaven. We dare not trust ourselves alone, but trust God within ua, and working through us.

Confusion over purpose. Some have aa their purpose a special pro-gram, a special speaker, a special singer, a special fsrvor. Some want "Churcb-jright-Clufcs" whsre they can gist fancy crooning and listen to Rs l i^Bs-Wlts (or nit-wits) to* put on an hour of enter-tainment in the name of Revival But what is our purpose? Our pur-pose is to help one more person get ready for Heaven, and in said preparation, ready for / life in this world.

Christian Brother, let go of your pre-conceived notions as to the BOW of a revival. Search your heart and ask God, "Father, help me to win one person to thee", re-membering that Alsc Templeton can't pressnt a concert on a toy-piano. Neither can God present a much nssdsd Revival through a tJonfussd-Ohristlanlty."

Writer Makes Juat Complaint About Scattering Litter on lilRhwaya

• October 20, 1946 Editor, Lowell Ledger:

Thla morning I walked to church. Yea, I have taken thla walk a num-ber of times and always I am Im-pressed with the litter scattered along the highway.

Here's a list of what I found this morning between our houae and the village llmita of Lowell on the eaat side of the road: Pap-ers, papers and more papera, paper bage, paper cartons, and raca, lr« cream cartons, cigarette cartons, popcorn cartons, crackerjaok car-tona, bread and cigarette wrap-pers, soap wrappers, candy wrap-pers, chewing gum wrappers and tooth paste wrappers, drinking cups, pop bottles, a cottage chee*e bottle, a rusty pall and kindling wood. Who scatters this trash? No one would want it dumped on their front lawn or even in their back yard. But thoughtlessly t h e s e things are scattered along the high-way for all passers-by to see.

I have been told It's never good taete to do any thing that everyone else can't do at the same time. Sup-pose everybody scattered their trash along the highway!!

I know people who wouldn't throw even a chewing gum wrap-per out the car window. If all of us followed that rule our highways, yes, and our town streete would be

thing of beauty instead of s

"I get five thousand dollars a year," replied the lawyer's boy; "$10 a week in cash and the rest in legal advice."

Bringing wires from the road to the house is one of the last steps in the telephone installa-tion job. It's a commonplace scene throughout Michigan today. Michigan Bell is now installing telephones in the rural areas it serve* at a rate of about 2,000 a month.

IMore than 6,000 miks of wire have bsen added ki mral sectkos this year. These wires join with cable leading to the nearest central office and

ust be spUocd carefully in order that your tophooe will work properly.

3After a rural telephone line leaves the cable, it travels oo big crossanns bolted to the poles.

^ ' With the rural lines it's building, Michigan Bell will use about 100,000 crossanns on some 60,000 new poles this year.

• Serving about 98,000 customers in rural areas ^ now—more than twice as many as in 1941—

Michigan Bell is making real progress in extend-ing and improving its rural telephone service, particularly in view of the many material short-ages which hamper the job.

In Home Gardens Soybeans havs not only become a

major crop for industrial purposes but have also gained much favor in the home garden because they have a high protein content and will make a good substitute for meat In the diet. One-half cup of soybesns Is equivalent to two ounces of edible meat or eggs. One dlflterence be-tween the edible and field varieties is thst the edible soybeans have a lower percentage of oil Also, most of the edible varieties have larger seeds than the field varieties and it is easier to pod and prepare them for the table. Plant about the same time that green beans are put In the garden. About the same methods of planting may be used as for beans. However, space far-ther apart In the row than other types of beans, because the pods re-quire ample sun and air to mature properly. Since the pods on the same plant usually come to maturity all at the same time. It Is good prac-tice to plant a few feet of row in the garden at 10-day Intervals. The beans are ready to use when the pods are still green, and filled out to about the size of the end of your little finger. To prepare, gather the pods, pour boiling water over them, and let stand for S to 10 minutes. The beans will then easily come out of the pods.

One Time Pirate Lair New Source of Vanilla

Source of vanilla, the 90 Seychelle islands off eastern Africa, have an estimated area of 150 square miles, says the National Geographic soci-ety. Kahe. largest of the group, has more than a third of the land. Praslin. principal source of Seychel-Ids vanilla. Is one of the smaller Islands.

The Seychelles. Just south of the equator, were uninhabited when discovered more than four centuries ago. Colonized by the French in the 1700s, they were named for Vlcomte des Seychelles, comptroller of fi-nance under Louis XV. The Is-lands came under British rule by the treaty of 1814.

Reached by Intricate channels, some of the islands were early pi-rate lairs. Most of the first settlers were African slaves, and later, like Liberia, the Islands became an asy-lum for freed slaves. Except for a few British residents and Chinese merchants, the population of •90,000 is made up of descendants of the French settlers, or of African slaves.

Rubber Test Leaf blight of Hevea rubber trees

is one of the principal hindrances to commercial re-establishment of rubber production in the Western hemisphere. Scientist knew that many of the varieties of rubber they would need to test would not be suit-able in the Western hemisphere because they would be destroyed by this leaf blight, so they established * testing center in Turrialba. Costa Rica. As they anticipated, seed lings grown from seed from Africa and the Philippines showed little or no resistance. Turrialba climate fa-vored the fungus which destroyed many seedlings but the infected trees had their use. The spores of the disease that killed them were collected and sprayed on other planting stock to Insure severe ex-posure to Infection. Trees that thrived at Turrialba in spite of the treatment they endured were likely to be safe from leaf blight infec-tion if planted elsewhere in tha rub-ber rone.

Forest Fires Records of the division of forestry

show an average annual reduction In the number and size of forest fires. The average number of fires, for instance, for the last seven years has be^n 777, each about 84 acres in size. In the preceding seven years, the average number of fires was 1,978 with an average of 97 acres each. Two factors will large-ly determine the size of the fire, once it has started. They are (1) weather, such as rainfall, tempera-ture. humidity and wind and (2) site, such as topography, soil and the kind of forest cover. Despite the reduction, there are far too many fires, for any one of the small fires has the potential of becoming a large one under favorable condi-tions. Therefore, the greater the number of fires, the greater is the risk.

Types ef Hosiery Full-fashioned hose are narrowed

in knitting to fit the leg. They can be/recognized by the wales or ridges which radiate from the fashion marks In the back. Full-fashioned hose keep their shape after wash-ing. Circular or seamless hose are the disappointing ones that bag at the ankles after a few hours' rea r ; they are knitted with the same number of stitches from top to toe. When worn or laundered, they come out looking like a tube, which in fact they are. Cheaper cotton and rayon hose are usually fashioned seamless. Knitting is gradually widened from ankle to hem. The added stitches form a V at the back of the leg. Circular-type hose which are cut up the back of the leg and seamed to fit are called cut and tai-lored hose.

FERGUSON GHMTD THE beaver from hli left hand to his

right and ruffled snow curled In tiny cagcadei over the tlpi of his snow-, shoea ai he broke into a trot He came out of the gpruces into the clearing where his cabin iquatted. Blue tmoke curled out of the chim-ney. But hig wife's snowshoes no longer hung on their pegs over the door. She was away on her trap line.

Fergugon swung a little faster down the trail he had made when he left the cabin that morning. He grinned whimsically. It took ten years' experience succeigfully to run a trap line. But Ann had in-sisted on having her own and occa-sionally she brought in a pelt

He reached the cabin and itopped short. Sharp and clear in the new snow the imprints of his wife's snowshoes led straight away from the cabin, down the trail she took through the spruces. Just as sharp and clear, and Just as fresh, an-other line of snowshoe tracks swerved out of the spruces to Join them.

After a moment Ferguson was shocked into sluggishness. Five months before, a week after he had brought Ann here, he came out of the forest toward the cabin late one night and heard her scream. He started to run and burst into the lighted hut without stopping to see what danger threatened. Ann was there, a trickle of blood running

The roads were full of cars. The cara full of hunters and dogs, and soon after 10 o'clock the fields were full of hunters—this on the open-ing day of the pheasant season. Dick Maohlele asked the county agent to hunt with him at the home of some of his kin folk In Ottowa county. I had heard stories of concentration of huntera but never saw anything like It, and the barrage of shooting at 10 o'clock (and before in wome casee) was ter-rific. Don't see how any pheasants survived. Hunters were on the go all day: They made me think of a line in the poem Lockinvar, "There WHO racing and dashing on Canoble Lea." That Was about the way cars tore up and down the roads all day. Hunter? were very fine about crossing each others paths, helping to locate down birds and other courtesies In the field. The weather overhead wae fine but dry and dusty under foot.

Did the county agent get a phea-sant? Someone asked Irwin Cobb about his duck hunting ability. "Any duck has all the advantage when Cobb shoots" was his reply. That same advantage goes to the pheasant when the county agent

The two snowshoe trails Inter-mingled.

down her cheek and her clothes hall ripped from her buck. With her was a renegade half-breed named Anatlk.

Charging In with bull-like rage, Ferguson had beaten Anatlk with his fists, knocked him down again and again, smashed his face to a pulp, and would have killed him if Ann hadn't interfered.

He should have known that Anatik would never forget or for-give. For a moment he stared as if hypnotized at the double line of tracks.

Then he dropped the beaver in the snow. Not stopping to remove his own snowshoes he ran into the cab-in. snatched his deer rifle and, as fast as he could, down the plain-ly marked trail

But even as he ran he looked carefully both at the trail ahead and at the tracks he followed. The two snowshoe trails intermingled, and earlier that morning a big timber wolf had also run down the. trail. The woU. with characteristic cun-ning. had run at the side where traps were least likely to be.

Ferguson reached up with his left hand to brush his hat from his head. Without breaking stride, transferring his rifle from his right hand to his left, he slipped his arms out of his coat sleeves.

Just ahead, at the top of a little rise and to one side of the trail, a bushy spruce showed sharply green against the white background. Fer-guson raced up the slope and stopped suddenly to swing his rifle around.

He stood with his legs braced, his chest heaving mightily as he strove to get his breath. Anatlk lay stretched out at the foot of the ever-green, trying to shrink into the snow, his fear-fllled eyes staring at Ferguson. Ferguson cocked his ri-fle. raised It and brought It down again.

"I reckon not," be said slowly. "I ought to blast you where you He. But for her sake I'D let you live."

He read the signs etched plainly in the snow. Antik. Indeed, bad not forgotten who had beaten him. He had known that Ferguson would fol-low the double trail, had planned that he would run to his death in so doing. There was a deep depres-sion on the trail where he had stayed a long time in ambiub. Then, seeking better concealment, he had crawled und^r the spruce. But the big timber wolf had also walked beneath the tree.

Ferguson smiled tenderly. A trap-per, wanting to take that wolf, would plan to shoot or trap it on a ridge or in some thicket a wolf might go. Only an inexperienqed woman, seeing wolf tracks under the spruce, would expect It to be in the same place the next day.

Ferguson smiled again at seeing thv heavy wolf traps clamped on each of Anatik's wrists

Rast Magaets. The lowly rust, as abhorrent as mold before penicillin, is now being used to fashion a new type of small but powerful magnet Because it is made entirely of iron rust and other oxides, it Is the first nonmetallic. nonconductive magnet ever to be made, as well as being the lightest The material Is a sintered mixture of Iron and cobalt oxides. Because of its high resis-tance an electric current does not pass through It readily. Ths mag-nets are not easily demagnetized and thus can be used in high-fre-qaency fields where ordinary per-manent magnets fail.

Ditcorer Dark Star in Southern ComteUation

«*• dlseorery of • new "dark •tar" by Dr. Nicholas E. Wagman. Mtlng director of th* Allegheny ob-servatory, University of Pittsburgh. Is on* of few such discoveries In history of astronomy. The star is the dark companion star of Alpha Ophluchl, bright star of the Constel-lation Ophluchus of the southern summer skies. The first of these discoveries In 1S44 estsbUshed the companions of Slriuc and Procyon. Since then there have been few others.

The existence of another one be-came known while Dr. Wagman was photographing certain bright stars through an abscrbln glass. His purpose was to make them appear as faint aa very distant staro and thus establish distances.

In the course of this work he no-ticed the bright star of the constel-lation moving in an orbit, indlcat; ing the presence of a dark star. He also noted the errstlc path of Alpha Ophluchl, a wavy-llne course unlike straight courses ot other stars. Subsequent resesrch resolved the problem by showing thst the dark star. In conjunction with the bright one was responsible for the pattern which Dr. Wagman de-scribed as a "wobble." According to Dr. Wagman these early Investiga-tions indicate the new discovery Is a star similar to our sun. Its light, however, is obscured by the bright star which outshines it 20 times over.

Pipes Laid Under Floor In Radiant Heating

In installing radiant heating by means of hot water circulated through pipe colls In existing houses, two methods are used. The pipe coils may be laid directly oo the old floor with a new floor laid on top over two-by-fours or the pipe coils may be installed between Joists In ordinary open Joist construction.

When pipes are installed In either of these ways over a basement, in-sulation on the underside Is neces-sary If the basement la not to be heated About three Inches of min-eral wool or fibre glass Is suggest-ed. When installed between Joists with access from the basement, it la e»Ty to compensate for errors by Installing additional piping.

In radiant heating Installations, either in new houses or in old. It Is advisable to run the return from each room separately to the boiler. The return should be equipped with a valve so that the flow of hot water to the room may be increased or decreased in accordance with the heating requirements of the room.

SheUand Ponies Shetland ponies developed under

rigorous conditions of home life. Used In the United States principally as children's pets. Shetland ponies are commonly worked in the BriUsh and nearby isles as pack and draft animals. They resemble In type a very small draft horse and, in Great Britain, work in coal mines is a usual occupation for them. The Shetland Islanda which are the na-tive home of the ponies, are about 200 miles north of ScoUand. Rather low temperatures prevail: the is-lands are rocky and rough; and feed is scarce except in a few valleys These conditions seem to have con-tributed to the small size of the ponies. Judging from their tendency to grow larger where feed is plenti-fu l Most Shetland ponies weigh be-tween S00 and 400 pounds and meas-ure between 38 and 44 inches in height at the withers. They are a t most always gentle and am amen-able to hutwiiing and training. Hardiness and longevity are char-acteristics of the breed.

For early garden crops particu-larly, a pinch ot dust big enough to stay oo the end oC a toothpick may mean all the difference between a healthy stand of garden plants aD dewn the mw. am! a sickly, strag-gly row with wide gaps between the crop plants. The chemical dusts used In garden seed treatment con-trol two different groups of diseases. Seed borne diseases carried from diseased crop plants of the past year develop on th^ sprouting seed after they are planted, and kill or Injure the plants In germination. Other fungi in the soil may attack the plants and kill tbem before they break through the soO. Most of the crops that are planted early in cool •oil benefit from seed treatment, as the sofl fungi do roost damage at thla season of the year. Carrots, spinach, peas, beets, lettuce and cabbage are among these.

Math Caatral According to scientific evidence,

moths don't mind the odor of so-called repeDenta. Nor are moths repelled by cedar. An air-tight con-tainer and one pound of mothballs, calces or crystals of naphthalene or paradichlorobemcne for every 10 cubic feet am needed before such repellents can successfully do their work. Airing and brushing woolens frequently and removing slipcovers on furniture regularly for a moth hunt helps in controlling the pests. The vacuum and broom are among the best moth chasers. Clean floors, particularly around baseboards and edges of rugs and under seldom-moved furoiture, prevents moths from settling down for s foreboding

Proposal No. 2 (continued from page 1)

In tha state," aUtes the bureau re-port. 'School aid distribute by the atate has frown from 22 minion in 1983, prior to the salas tax, to 80 million three years ago and close to 64 million last year. In 104}. basic Krants to schools wera 41 millions. This year ihey are 60 millions."

Fundamentally, In the opinion of the bureau, tha amendment Is un-sound because it "violates the fun-damental and sound principle that reoponslblllty for raising money should accompany the spending of It. That principle is bedrock in re-sponsible government"

Dr. Eugene B Elliott, state sup-erintendent of public Instruction, recently pointed out that approval of the tax amendment may force the legislature to throw back upon local governments more than $4,-000,000 worth of state educational services now paid by the state.

Michigan Society for Mental Hy-giene, through its directors, has ex-pressed oppcattion to the amend-ment charging It would "Jeopar-dise" the states entire mental health program. •«

The State Association of Equali-zation School*, headed *y Job9 ft Page, suvpeiintendent of sohSbls at Howell, likewise opposes the a-mendenent.

After atodytng all the arguments pro and con pertaining to the sales tax amendment, the writer of thle column haa come to the following conclusions: Schooln will gain fin-ancially whether the amendment Is defeated or adopted. New taxes will be Imposed If the amendment Is approved. Cities, villages and townshlpa will not toe ahead finan-cially Is the amendment carries.
