school students of 44 states and
Washington, D C
A total of 60 cash awards went
to winners in the contest In ad
dition, ten cash prizes went to
teachers of students with entries
in the contest.
Theme of-the contest was ‘.Meat
the Nation’s Mainstay”. This
resulted in many excellent posters
on a variety ot meat subjects,
stressing the importance of meat
to the nation The contest stimu
lated additional studies in high
schools on the importance of meat
in the diet, with the Meat Board
providing the students and teach
er.- with valuably information

voted to the contest
The winning posters will be

Effect of Molybdenum
On Legumes
Based on 3 years of research
at Washington State College, a
nickel’s worth of the trace ele
ment, moylbdenum, can increase
legume yields, at least in the east
ern part of that state, up to 320'
pounds per acre According to
Soils Scientist R M Reisenauer
of Washington State, molybdenum
will increase both the yield and
nitrogen content of peas, alfalfa
and sweet clovei in the wheat-pea
area
The best response has been ob
tained, Dr Reisenauer says, on
eroded, hilltop, and previously
foiested soils He recommends
one fourth to one half ounce of
sodium molydbate per hundred
pounds of seed, and warns against
ucmg more than this because it
may make the plants toxic to ani
mals The molydbeiurm can be ap
plied either to the soil or to the
seed, but seed treatment, Reisen
auer says, is 100 times more effec
tive in getting the element into
the plant and it costs only 5 cents
an acre.
In the Washington exoenment
Reisenauer points out that yield
increases varied from 0 to 320
pounds per acre.
Blackleg Can Strike Cattle in Spring
As Well as Fall, Foundation Warns
A springtime warning for cat
tle owners to be alert against out
breaks of blackleg at this season
oi the year was issued today by
the American Foundation for
Animal Health.
“Many farmers think blackleg
stakes only in the fall, but it
often causes heavy losses in the
spring, too, and can also occur at
other times of the year,” the
Foundation said
Foundation officials said having
young cattle vaccinated against
blackleg is the best way to insure
against blackleg losses. Vaccina
tion should be done before cattle
are turned out to pasture this
spring. Normally, such vaccina
tion should be done when calves

Q. Under the new $1 per
hour minimum wage law, are all
wage-earners included’ I am pri
marily interested in store clerks
in local trade —W MS.
A The provisions of the Fed
eral “Fair Labor Standards Act
of 1938,” as amended, providing
for a minimum hourly wage of
$l, applies only to employees
engaged in comrtierce or in the
production of goods for com
merce among the several States
or between any State and any
place outside thereof
Whether or not a store clerk
is covered by the provisions of
this Act could only be determin
ed after an evaluation of the du
ties of the clerk It is quite like
ly that the store clerk in a busi
ness earned on locally is not
covered by the provisions of the
above Act

Blackleg kills quickly, often
within 12 to 48 hours. It may be
mistaken for malignant edema,
anthrax, hemorrhagic septicemia,
sweet clover poisoning and other
abnormal conditions .Therefore,
the Foundation suggests a veter
inary diagnosis as an insurance
measure, whenever a blackleg
outbreak is suspected
