Acorns for Cattle
The statement often is made that |
acorns and not the leaves are poi-
sonous to cattle and will dry up
milking cows. Others seem to think
that only dairy cows suffer from
acorns. While it is true that acorns
are less poisonous than the leaves,
if eaten in large quantities, both
might cause symptoms of a diges-
tive disorder, poor appetite and a
gradual loss of weight. They should
be kept away from woodland pas- |
tures where acorn trees are pres-|
ent. There is no other cure.
Early Child Training
It takes more than instinct alone |
to help solve the difficulties of chil- |
dren and youth handicapped by dis-
torted emotions. Studies made dur-
ing the last 25 years show that early |
impressions and attitudes give chil-
dren a particular ‘‘set’” or ‘‘bent” to
body, mind or character which is
apt to persist into older years.
The Egg and You
An egg may be considered an
oversized vitamin pill. The hen
wraps up in this nutritional pack-
age vitamins A and D, and the B
vitamins, thiamine and riboflavin.
Eggs are a good source of the most
valuable proteins (proteins vary in
food value). They rate ‘‘excellent”
as a source of iron and phosphorus.

Furniture Cleaning
Very dirty painted furniture can |
be cleaned with a mixture of solu-
tions containing a cake of shaved
laundry soap in a gallon of boiling
glue in a quart of boiling water.
Rinse the mixture off after a few
minutes with clear water and wipe
dry with a clean cloth.
Correct Frames
So many lovely pictures are
spoiled because of their inappropri-
ate framing. The frame usually
should be as dark as the middle
tone of the picture and should form
a blending between the picture and
the wall so that you are entirely
unconscious of the frame when you
gaze at the picture.

Zulu Custom
Work among Zulu tribes is
striet'y divided between men and |
women. The men cut and set the
poles for houses but women weave
the mat coverings; the men carve
utensils from wood but
make clay pots.
First Letter
The letter “A” is not only the first
letter of our alphabet, but, as the
World Book encyclopedia states, it
| was the first letter of the first
known alphabet. The alphabet used
by the Seirites in 1850 B.C. started
with “A.”
