LEVEL YOUR LAND FOR BETTER FARMING Fall is a good time to level your land, advises County Agent Marven Ogden." The main purpose in leveling land, he emphasizes, is to make it easier to apply water uniformly by surface irrigation. If your land is uneven so that water stands in low spots and leaves other areas dry, you should seriously consider leveling. level-ing. Keep in mind, however, not all land can 'be leveled to advantage, such as in Oak City and Leaming- with feed. The feed goes to the mangers and animals will pick up and swallow nails, short pieces of wire and other metal objects. You can cut losses greatly if you will: (1) Place all scraps of metal in a suitable container instead of throwing them in the cor ral or field. (2) Watch bailing wire. Some times, pieces of wire are clipped clip-ped in the field by the mow er, (3) Each spring and fall, have a clean-up of fields, lots, corrals, cor-rals, breeding and grazing areas. (4) Make certain that ground or chopped feed has been pass ed over a magnet to remove pieces of scraps of metal. It's surprising what a magnet can find in ground feed LAURA BRADFIELD Life is just a- bowl of raisins-Raisin' raisins-Raisin' cain, Raisin' Kids, Raisin' money.

(By Democratic Central Committee) PTA's Grow-Children Benefit It happens every fall. As children the country over start back to school, the grown-ups most concerned with their welfare get together in activities that protect those children and enhance their learning and their lives. Usually they do it in the PTA, through one of the more than 47,000 parent-teacher associations that constitute the National Congress of Parents and Teachers. AGAIN THIS fall, the millions of Americans who are PTA members will seek new col-1 sponsor teen-canteens, art ex- Paid Political Advertisement by Ashby, Petersen and Smith leagues to help advance "the welfare of children in home, 'school, church and community." Under the leadership of Mrs. Clifford N. Jenkins, of Roslyn Heights, L.I N.Y they will look for answers to the needs most pressing in their own communities. PTA offers a challenge to parents of children of all ages, even of children not yet ready for school. Throughout its 65-year 65-year history, the National Congress Con-gress has led in establishing kindergartens, needed today especially es-pecially in the hundreds of new-communities new-communities that must build schools first, begin preschool training later. SCHOOL-AGE children get all kinds of help from ITA activity, ac-tivity, notably from its longstanding long-standing programs for promoting promot-ing their health throughout their school years and their safety. Parents and teachers have worked together to improve im-prove the quality of education offered in their communities and, through the National Congress, Con-gress, to upgrade education nationally. Whether they contribute books to a school bbrary or hibits or science fairs, PTA members find satisfaction in helping children to develop their abilities to the fullest. They work toward that goal by continuing their own education edu-cation in parenthood, too, through study-discussion groups where they may share in the common market of ideas about children and their needs. This fall, PTA's are embarking embark-ing on an ambitious program seeking solutions to "pressing, compelling problems' cited by National Congress leaders as meriting special attention from PTA's. Depending on their own community com-munity needs, they may be working to provide more day nursery services or help for emotionally disturbed children, to prevent school dropouts and juvenile delinquency, to evaluate evalu-ate local opportunities for higher education and professional profes-sional training. They may adopt suggestions the ITA program offers for promoting physical fitness and preventing accidents to children, chil-dren, for broadening young people's vistas in the field of cultural arts, for encouraging fuller participation in civic affairs af-fairs and "two-way communication communi-cation within the community. And as they do' every fall, they welcome other parents, teachers and friends of children to the continuing adventure of the PTA, urging, "join it, serve it, grow with it." 2,000 ? 3,437,138 - - r i .
