September 24, 1942. THE CENTRE DEMOCRAT, BELLEFONTE, PA. Page Thré - FARM AND HOME Special Publications Available To Centre County Farmers Centre county farm people are making every effort to produce the maximum amount of food stuffs with the facilities available as thelr part in helping to win the war, ac- cording to County Agent R. C Blaney. Our government needs all types of food, particularly food such as milk and eggs that lend them- selves for preparation for Lend- Lease purposes, At the same time, our workers at home need additional food to help provide the energy for our war production program According to Blaney, the Centre County Agricultural Extension Ser- vice has prepared a number of spec- in] leaflets that are available at the Extension Office to anyone needing information of this type. These leaf- lets are prepared especially to help aid farm and rural people in our producing program. They are as follows: “Storing of Vegetables for Winter Use,” “Feeding and Man- aging Poultry for Efficient Egg Production,” "Feeding Dairy Cows Efficient Milk Production,” “Re- modeling of Old Buildings For Poul- try Houses,” “Supplying Water the Laving Flock.” Due to shortage of labor and materials, it will be necessary for poultrymen and dairy- nen to more efficiently use the ma- terial and labor available. Likewise, it will be necessary for all Victory Gardeners and vegetable growers to itilize vegetables this fall and wine through efficient storage so that will not be any food crops already produced A telephone call, card or visit to the Extension Office located in the Post Office building at Bellefonte, 11 bring this information to any- r it neeging it food of for to t ter there loss of 0 ciie » » * .

When pullets i housed In warm weather, the warm air passing through the house quickly drys droppings in the loose itter. This loose, lightweight litter serves as an insulator over the floor A thin layer of litter breaks up quickly as the hens scratch it. As straw gefs broken, more of the straw can be added. Feeding me scratch grain in the litter helps to promote the rapid breaking of the straw. By observing closely, the poultryman can tell when to add more straw s0 that the litter will be built up. Usually litter six to eight inches deep is ample for most hous. : now itrymen iit-up” houses R. C many start “on PM S8ens the coarse Don’t Call Washington Unless You Must! Telephone lines in and Sut of Washington are flooded with vitally important war of calls from America. every part Give these calls the right of way. Don't call Wash- ington unless your call concerns the war or is otherwise urgent. If you must call Wash- ington—or any other cen- ing conditions. When pullets gre not housed until later in the fall, it is advisable to shred the straw, or to put some ma- terial of a finer texture on the floor before adding the straw A few inches of dry sawdust, shavings, sand, commercial litter, or finely ground corn cobs mix readily with the coarser material as the bullt- up litter is being formed It is necessary to remove wet lit- ter around openings and water con- tainers and level off the dry litter fill the sections cleaned. When the litter on the surface is not In good condition, remove it and add a small amount of fresh litter Adequate ventilation and an early start, not using too much straw at the beginning, keeping moisture from water fountains at a minimum properly stirring and distributing litter over the floor, and not allow- ing litter to get too deep contribute to the success of the built-up litter to Milking Machine Lasts Longer With Good Care Centre county farmers who are using milking machines must oper- ate them as though they were made of gold, reports County Agent R. C Blaney. Milking machines need the same careful washing and sterilizing as other dalry equipment ‘he four major steps in of the milking machine are 1. Rinse with lukewarm water, us- ing the vacuum to get a thorough rinsing 2. Dismantle and wash line solution, using properly design- ed brushes 3. Rinse thoroughly with hot er, using enough to rinse the wash water from the equipment Store keeping the rubber parts immersed in either a chloride or lye solution 4. The most important step is t sterilize with a chemical solution just before milking rinse, but proceed to milk To conserve rubber the milking machine tions are offered: Keep them clean do not bend, hammer, or pull rubber: keep them out of the sun- light: do n boil boiling water; rinse - )’ Titi v » 3 tore In a Crock or solution rack; the care in an alka- wat- 0 chloride do not the these Ugges- the sterilize by thorou ot or ise storage solutions ord the manufacturer's directions Ace HE . » . .

Dried peas may Le prepared and served in the same way as beans Olid SeASOT h care adds mon - sauces, to catsup, When serving dried beans or peas, it is an excellent plan to add a salty or sour food, something fresh or crisp, or a bright or spicy food to the menu. A salad may add that color, crispness, and chewiness that is needed to go with dried beans or peas. Tomatoes also play a promin- ent part in dried bean cookery, for they add a spicy flavor, LJ * Stitch in Time Adds Service to Sweaters Now is the time to check the fam- lly sweater supply to see that each sweater is in tiptop shape, accord- ing to Miss Helen 8. Butler, home economics extension representative of Centre county. It is a good idea to check snags, thin spots, and moth holes Large holes may be mended by re- knitting them with matching yarn Another way to mend large holes is to crochet rows of chain stitch to fill the hole, then darn on the wrong side. Thin places at the elbows or other | spots where there is much wear can be reinforced with matching yarn before they break through. Or thin places may be patched with a bright colored heavy material. Patches are popular now. When you wear a sweater, put it or stretched out of shape. Overload- ed sweater pockets sag. Because hanging stretches sweaters out of | shape, fold and lay them in a draw- er. Before washing a sweater, make pressed or blocked to glve them a finished appearance. To block, walt until the sweater is almost dry, cov- er first with a dry press cloth then with a damp cloth, and barely touch the warm iron to the top cloth until steam comes through the cloths, Re- move the cloths and allow the sweater to dry before laving it away SNOW SHOE The Ladies’ Bible class of E. church held their monthly ing and social at a late hour luck supper was served The firemen will hold in front of the bank Be on hand to help along Mrs. Jerry Ketren of Lamar, and son.

On Sunday afternoon they were present when their niece and her fiancee, Stanley Shaffer, were mar- ried in the Camp Hill Methodist church. They returned home that Sunday evening. They all had a fine time. Early on Saturday morning Wal- ter Biyres and Sam Walters had a head-on collision at Steward Orn- dorf’s orchard on route 45, about a mile west of town. The result was instant death of Mr. Styres. We understand interment was made in the Millheim cemetery on Wednes- day forenoon. It was a very dense, foggy morning when the accident happened. It certainly will pay peo- ple to drive very careful with full lights on when meeting such dense fog, and we've been having plenty of fog of late.
