Advantages of Fall Plowing Down
1. Gives opportunity for part of spring work to be done when time is less
critical.
2. Allows winter freezing and thawing to mellow heavy soils and provide
better seed bed.
3. Causes fields to dry and warm up earlier permits earlier planting,
4. Avoids soil compaction from working fields when too wet.
5. Escapes planting delays caused by wet springs.
6. Reduces run off and increases stored moisture.
7. Increases yields of many crops.

When was the last time you

baked stuffed muskrat or filed
woodchuck for dinner?
If your husband is a hunter,
chances are you may soon be
faced with the challenge of
cooking a variety of wild game
that is triumphantly carried
home after the kill, says a
food-nutrition specialist.
Deer, rabbit, squirrel, pheas
ant, wild duck and wild goose
are the most prized ot wild
game But opossom, raccoon,
muskrat, and woodchuck make
good eating too as long as
all the meat is carefully caied
for befoie reaching home and
properly prepared in the kitch
en.
In her publication “Good
Eating With Game Meats”—
Mrs. Edith Pheil, University of
Maryland Extension Service,
tells how to dress birds and
mammals and cook the fare.
The home economist espe
cially warns hunters to “take
extra caution when dressing
rabbits because of the possi
bility of tularemia (rabbit
fever).”
“Hunters should avoid ‘sick
looking or acting rabbits’,” she
stresses. “Most human cases
