Colder Weather
The month of November us
ually means colder weather
with the risk of sudden snow
storms and freezing weather. I
can readily recall the sudden
snow storm of about 10 years
ago that dumped 15 inches of
snow on the ground with strong
winds the first weekend in
November. I mention it at this
time to suggest that things need
to be done before freezing
weather. The cooling systems of
all kinds of motors should
either be drained or prepared
with anti-freeze solutions. Wa
ter pipes should be buried or
wrapped with heating cable.
Many pipes are not buried deep
enough (at least 30 inches) to
be safe from normal cold wea
ther in this area.
Until a Boy has fallen in love,
it’s impossible to get him to
shine his shoes.

Have You Heard?...
By Doris Thomas, Extension Home Economist
Growing Youngsters Need New Shoes Often
A growing child between the ages of six and ten needs a pair
of new shoes every two or three months.
New shoes are needed often because the
foot changes in size.
Even though shoes may not be worn out,
they may be outgrown at a rapid rate.
It’s important for the child to have both
feet fitted each time a pair of shoes is bought.
If one foot is larger than the other, fit the
larger foot.
To fit properly, a shoe should be one-half
to three-fourths inch longer than the longest
toe and one-fourth inch wider than the widest
part of the foot.
To be sure the shoes fit all over, let the
child stand and walk in them.
Check to see if there’s ample toe room
and that the shoe conforms to the natural arch
of the foot.
The counter of the shoe
should fit the heel snugly with
out rubbing or slipping up and
down
A good shoe will have uppers
and soles that are flexible and
counters which are firm but not
stiff.
Check for smooth linings that
are smooth and free of rough
spots, humps, or nails.
The outside finishing should
be neat and all seams evenly
stitched.
Shop at reliable stores where
employees are trained to do- the
fitting.
Stores should stand behind
their merchandise in case
there’s a defect in the shoe.
It pays to buy good quality
shoes which are properly fitted
in order to prevent permanent
damage to the child’s foot.

the amount of food you substi

whole milk.
Ci earn soups, creamed fish,

Cream pies, custards, and

Substitute cup for cup when
you use low fat or skim milk,
buttermilk or diluted evaporat

One and one-third ounces of
Cheddar cheese, one and one
