The increase of iodine level in dairy
milk, and consequently in human in
take, has become a genuine concern
Research studies published in the
Journal of Dairy Science* show a
direct cause and effect relationship
between the use of an todophor on
teats and the iodine content of a
herd's milk. Now silverQUICK offers
you the logical alternative It contains

hilarious to someone not frantical
ly searching for this particular
game - titled “Mall Madness.”
While I love board games, I was
unfamiliar with this new one. But
it was easy to speculate on the
strategy. Players would move
around a board in search of items
to buy, beset by all sorts of shop
ping pitfalls.
A few immediately come to
mind. Parking spots available only
beside giant water puddles, con
struction mud, or a quarter-mile
away from the entrance. Shopping
carts with defective, bumpy and
“draggy” wheels, causing players
to veer off into stacks of noisy,
breakable merchandise. Having to
shop with a pair of tired, cranky
toddlers in tow. Lose points when
you raise your voice and snarl, “If
you don’t settle down. I’ll give
you something to cry about.”

You Can't Beat The System
When you consider the time and
money you save because of their
broad-spectrum kill and ease of
use, silverQUICK Udder Wash and
UDDERgoId Teat Dip, used together,
are possibly the most cost-efficient
aids in mastitis prevention available
on the market today
Dairy operations equipped with
m-lme sprayer systems can easily use
silverQUICK (one-step) Its one-part
makeup, which requires only one
ounce of concentrate for five gallons
of water, can easily be monitored with
most of today’s spray systems

purposely went to get, and on

(A few days later I came across
a description of Mall Madness,
indicating that players got credit
cards to “buy, buy, buy” their way
around the game. Training for
adulthood, no doubt.)
But negotiating holiday shop
ping landmines - like the mall
parking lot racedriver who nearly
ran me down a couple of days ago
- is just the first part of the game.
Next comes sneaking the loot
home and keeping it hidden from
the recipients until the moment of
unwrapping.
Finding suitable hiding spots in
our house was always one of the
great challenges of the season.
There were few spots on the four
floors where the kids weren’t apt
to snoop, if the opportunity arose.
So over the years, a couple of suc
cessful ones saw annual use.
Bottom of the dirty clothes
hamper, covered with an old
sweatshirt or grubby jeans, proved
a winner. Gifts could have stayed
there through July 4lh, safe from
snoopers who favored leaving dir
ty laundry on bedroom floors.
Another package safe haven
was in the cabinet beneath the
basement laundry room sink.
Since there was alway the concern
that a pipe could spring a leak,
wrapped and ready gifts slashed
there went into large, heavy gar
bage bags capable of shedding
potential accidents.

household. What kids are going to
go rummaging around in areas
devoted to the acoutrements of
housework?
Just about the time I was patting
myself on the back for all these
years of finding such clever hiding
spots, the inevitable, ego
shattering comeuppance
happened.
Year after year, since they were
old enough to start peeking, the
handiest spot for hiding smaller
items until Christmas Eve was our
picnic cooler. It generally saw its
last seasonal use during Septem-
ber’s fair week, then went into
hibernation in the attic until it was
dragged out to do service during a
January Farm Show. Its location at
the top of the attic stairs was real
handy for plunking in little gifts as
acquired.
About this time last year, I went
upstairs for something and discov
ered in a new location a few clo
thing gifts I was dead certain had
been hidden in the cooler. But, last
year, the cooler was snagged for a
new use - deer hunting season. I
figured I’d been found out - but
not a word was said.
A few weeks later, packing
food for our Farm Show slay, I
lifted the cooler lid and found a
small note in our son’s unmistakc
able handwriting.
“Looking for something?” sar
castically asked the lorn slip of
paper.
Scratch that hiding spot,
