Two types of training is provid­ ed, —one in which the veteran receiv­ es his training on a farm under an Employer-Trainer and in cooperation with a high school and the other in which the veteran receives his train­ ing on a farm which hej operates. in each case the veteran will receive a subsistence allowance in addition to the pay he receives from the farm. This subsistance allowance from the Veteran’s Administration will be $90 per month for married and $05 per month for single men. Veterans should secure and file Form-1950, together with a phostatic qopy of his discharge papers, also a certified copy of marriage license if married. Farmers wishing to employ veterans may secure Form-VT Ag-20 on which they m u stjist the starting ami objective wage of the veteran. BREAD AND MEAT LINES IN «. STARS Rabies Epidemic Is A Possibility In all probability within the next few weeks Greene County will have an epidemic of Rabies. Some of the neighboring counties are already hav­ ing cases. Therefore, it seems un. likely that Greene County can escaped We know, definitely that immuniz­ ation, of dogs is successful and epi­ demics can be prevented if a large percentage of dogs are immunized. Isn’t it fa r better to take action be­ fore disaster strikes? A rabies epidemic is not a pleasant thing. I t will mean a dog quarantine with all the problems of enforcement: it will mean immunization of exposed persons: it will mean considerable ex­ pense to the county for the payment of claims and treatment: it will mean almost endless irritation for the peo­ ple and enforcement officials. All this c a n ^ prevented by- thcr in- expensive methcu of immunizing an dogs. In addition to immunization it will be necessary to eliminate stray dogs which will require the cooper­ ation of the Dog Warden. To summarize, rabies epidemics can be prevented by immunizing all dogs annually and eliminating strays. 1-H CONFERENCE MAY 1— Four-H Club officers and leaders ,vill meet a t Xenia Central High School Wednesday evening May 1 at f:30 for their annual •spring confer- .’lice.

Miss Glenna Basore, who formerly lived in Cedarville, has advanced from the position of assistant registrar at Denison University, Granville to the secretaryship in the treasurer’s office, The change Was effective May 1. , A graduate of Cedarville College Miss BaSore^remqihed with her alma mater for lcTyears as assistant regis- tf s r and secretary.

TWO SHERIFF SALES In this issue Will be found two sales of real estate under court order by Sheriff Walton Spahr. One is a farm of 211 acres in Ross township of which Morris D. Rice, of Osborn is trustee against the Uni- vatsai Reserve System Ltd., et ol is defendant, The appraisal Is $18,. 000/ A sale of property in town on Rail­ road street has been ordered for tho 8th day Of June.

Milo Cooper who was recently em- ployed by-the committee as county inseminator has recently spent sev­ eral days with Dr. John Ramge, man­ ager of the Western Ohio Breeders Association and later affiliate with the proposed Central Ohio Association a t Columbus, The weed puller and the mowing sythe will take the back seat in the campaign against weeds this year. Ehe new chemical 2 , 4-D is the most important weed killer since sodium Chlorate was introduced several years ago, The new hormone synthetic may be used in extremely dilute solutions. It attacks the growing ability of wide- leafed plants, causing them to "grow themscvleS to death". The substance does not act quickly. I t may require two to four weeks in,most cases. Fob lowing application the„weeds appear vigorous and healthy 'for a few days before twjsting, bending arid dying. I t is very effective killing weeds in lawns, pastures, and fence rows, The product' is effective against mustard, wiritercress, buckhorn, dandelion, bur­ dock, ragweed, bindweed and pepper- grass, It has little effect on Canada thistle, crabgrass and other noxious grasses, BOOST CLOVER YIELDS— Farmers who want to increase the yields of clover and alfalfa should ar­ range with a beekeeper to place col- onies of bees in May neat the field from which the seed will be harvest­ ed, These two legumes dejpend upon insects for pollination of blossoms and the natural supply of insects is too small to do a thorough job. One or two colonies of bees per acre is suf* ficieni. ing restrictions on unlicensed packing plants as well as those licensed, will cut the retail meat supply to almost nothing. ' . Packing plants in Columbus/Dayton Cincinnati and scores of smaller cities have been closed down due to this or­ der. One plant in Dayton usually suppling 40,01)0 pounds of beef daily is now closed down and few retail, stores in that city have any meat. There is general complaint of the government meat inspectors," called graders, who must brand the meat as to class before it can be" delivered. Packers purchase first grade cattle that pass the pure food test a t time of slaughter but to have that same carcus graded second or third class, means the packer must take a heavy financial loss. Mr. Walter Cultice, Xenia packer, says his plant cannot kill in one week what was his usual output in one day. This means Xenia retailers will have a very limited supply of meat for the retail trade. Two local stores here have been supplied in the past by the Cultice firm. City bakers that make delivery to local stores have already cut the sup­ ply 25‘percent daily. One firm says another cut may be made within ten days unless pies, cakes are dropped. Patrons of the bread trucks that travel rural highways and make house to house deliveries gave a startling notice Thursday to patrons that here­ after only one loaf of bread would be delivered to a family, no matter how many, plates were served daily. This sent many rural housewives into a rage. ■ , ■ . No bread is being baked by the local brkery and none has been other than rolls and buns for some time. One former Cedarville lady now residing in Xenia, called us by phone Thursday and stated she had been unable to get meut at either of the three largest chain stores. It can be predicted that she with others will purchase still less meat and butter as the weeks' approach. A representative of a large pack, ing plant relates how one retailer had treated a seeker of■beefsteak. This retailer had been reported by a CIO follower to the OPA which levied a fine. Several days ago the wife Of a CIO leader asked for steak but in. stead she received a lecture. She was told neither she nor her husband could have a pound of any kind of meat that day or anytime in- the future. That day the “Chickens came home to roost.” SawyerSsys America la NoLonger Richest Nation1 In World Chas. Sawyer,Dera., well known in, Ohio, in an. addm e beforethe Kiwanis Club, Columbus, said: "we must soon recognise the limits of our 'resources , «a w e l/ as the lim its of our obliga­ t e reeent order of the OPA plac-^tions”. Mr. Sawyer just recently re­ turned from Belgium,, where’he was U.S. Ambassadof. Sawyer also sitid: “I t irmathematic ally demonstratablo that we cannot feed the world’. ’Womustfoce the fact that the United /States- is mo longer the richest natipn”, Recognition -of our -domestic /arid 1 foreign ..policy ’to this fact is.a- dictate of-common sense, You Don’t Need Protein Feed In Summer Time Every farmer in the county- should havp heard the WLW farm program last Saturday, .If you did not you Have missed something. Roy Battles, who does the heavy work on farm topics for the station, announced^ “Dr^’ Smlth of the Agri­ cultural Department in Washington would speak on toe food situation. The point in .the talk that interest­ ed us was what~the Dr. had to say about- it being fortunate the livestock feed shortage, crime a t a time when i t "Would not make much difference; as the cows wopld give as much milkion grass without feed as with it. He did not go-into detail about how the butterfat content compared with ?no feed as with it. < We do not know how the WLW farm in Warren county operates but if the cows that, graze the hill sides on that farm turn out as much milk and butterfat -without feed, there are millions of farmers in the U.S. that would like a chart o fth e program’so they could save feed and get "as much milk.” The former handles a different kind of teat than what the experts -in Washington grab twice a month. The farmer must, feed to get results from his milk source.and pay income taxes to keep the Washington teat faem shrinking. It is all New Deal prop­ aganda to play the farmer as the nation’s outstanding, sucker. SALESMAN. SU FFER S STROK E ; FOUND IN CAR ON COLUMBUS P IK E F. S. Brush, Jr., Schenectady, N. Y. was 'found slumped in his car a t a bridge on the Columbus pike east of town about Sunday noon. Dr. Donald Kyle was called and after examina­ tion had the patient sent to Spring. Held City Hospital. Just ho# long the man had been there no one knew but the lights bn his car were still burning when Deputies Barnett and Spahr of the Sheriff’s office investi­ gated. I t was .evident he had been in an unconscious state for several hours. The car had crashed against the guard rail but was not damaged to any extent. The Sheriff's office reported Thurs­ day that the hospital reported the case due to a stroke of some sort as he had not been able to give an account of himself, c- Thursday the Herald learned that Mr. Brush represented the General Electric Company. A representative out of Columbus was in town making an investigation and went to Spring- field to visit the hospital, Will Publish List County OPA Backers We have written Senator Robert A, Taft to give iis a list of letter-writers from the various postoffices in Greene county that want OPA continued as it has been (blackmail methods, and all). In as. much as ninety percent of the mail going to Senators is pro­ vided by OPA salaried supporters and the CIO, it would make interesting reading to know just who in Greene County fly that flag and the Herald will publish thb name and address if the list is furnished us from the Sen­ ator’s offic Senator Capper Calls Bonus Black Market Senator Arthur Capper, Rep., Kan., says the administration in placing a bonus of 30c a bushel on wheat was- operating, a black, market in Ithe "name of -world charity”. He termed the move purely^ political. He pointed out in his speech in!the Senate that paying 30c above ceiling prices was a violation of the law that others are being prosecuted under. He referred, to the action of the ad­ ministration some time ago begging farmers to sell their wheat: for Ship­ ment abroad. 'Many did sell while others did not. Those who wore mov­ ed patriotically generously sold, while today the farmer that did not , sell before is tempted with a bonus of 306 a bushel which is nothing but a black market operation. The government he says broke faith with the farmers that sold their wheat on the first appeal.

Marion Hughes reports, tha t condi­ tions in his section on Miller st. are terrible and he thinks council should put more steam behind the sewerage improvement before property owners are forced to spend money now.on thef private plants. Mr. Hughes, well driller, was for­ merly a member of thefipard of"Pub. lie Affairs and says the village has waited too .long now for the sewerage extension and. that he and other prop­ erty owners on Miller street asked four relief more than a year ago. -We are' also informed that a number of’resi­ dents on North and - Elm streets jure anxious to have-tbe extension rathet- than invest now in private-sewerage disposal plants. ' The ‘Herald learns- that council has' not dropped the matter and-is still trying to work out a solution to a situation* that must be settled first. Mr. Hughes states ’that- the propo­ sal to employ a non-resident at-$800 to make a survey-here about-electric rates is but throwing money away that will .be needed to j#Pply to the sewerage system qpd upkeep of the water system.
