It may be easily administered to a group of pigs at one time by incorporating the required amount into almost any feed given them. When administered in the feed it should be given at the rate of about 0.1 gram per pound of live weight, or about 4 grams each pig weighing about 40 pounds. Phenothiazine should be thoroughly mixed into the grain, milk or other food. Pigs under three months of age are susceptible to various toxic reactions following treatment, so care should be taken to preveht overdosing. Individual doses of pellets, tabs, or drench with a syringe, are also commonly used. Tests have proven that phenothiazine is also partially effective against several other parasites of livestock. The USDA have estimated that this new drug is worth more than 10 million dollars annually to the livestock industry in making it possible to produce better stock, free from worms. With' leftist elements in France pressing the issue, a new government loomed in Franco Spain, long under fire for Fascist connections but reportedly countenanced by Britain because of its neutrality dur- ing World War II, which diverted direct attack on Gibraltar. The Allies first major step in seeking to . supplant Franco came with Frances closure of its border against Spain. Prodded by French proposals to take up the matter with the United Nations organization, the U. S. and Britain then reportedly agreed to form a common front to apply pressure for Francos removal. While production employees missed 113 million dollars in wages. Dealers and salesmen were said to have lost another 100 million dollars in commissions. Because of G. M.s production of parts, other manufacturers have been forced to curtail assemblies, increasing profit and wage losses. At the Packard Motor Car company, 8.000 production workers have been off more than a month because of the shortage of G. M. supplies. Of 50,000 G. M. employees in Flint, Mich., over 2,000 strike-boun- d work- ers are receiving welfare relief at a rate of $38.06 weekly. Soybean Stem Rot May Be Greatly Reduced Soybeans are a crop and will bring about some improvement in the soil when grown for seed or forage in rotation with other crops, if the straw is plowed under and returned to the soil as manure. They should not, however, be planted in the same field two years in a row if stem rot is to be avoided. The fungus that causes the disease is unknown. It is perhaps the most serious disease that has yet attacked the soybean. Like most new crops, soybeans have been relatively free from disease. soil-buildi- ng Reduction 1.000 FOOD:; the world.

Vandenbergs charge upon returning from the United Nations Organization sessions in London that the American representatives sat back with compromising attitudes while Russia and Britain pressed their political ambitions. Unless the U. S. pushes its ideals, Vandenberg said, Russia will continue to press ahead in the Far East, eastern Europe, North Africa and Asia Minor where continued aggressiveness may set off a powder keg. In reaffirming U. S. determination to check future aggression, Byrnes declared that the present arrangement of the three great powers precluded world domination by any one of them, but that efforts to upset the balance would imperil peace. In calling for early- peace treaties, he asked for an ending of the draining of occupied countries. Demandagreeing equitable reparations ments, Byrnes said the U. S. would not tolerate any power deciding for itself what to take.

DRYDEN Catgut does not come from cats but from sheep and the chamois skin comes from sheep, not the chamois. The leather of the future may be produced from sheep - bells. Modern science has discovered that the glands of sheep weigh from two to four grams. The iodine content is from 0.2 to 0.3 per cent. This small amount is often the difference between health and sickness, profit and loss or success or failure. The U. S. army found that sheepskin is the warmest of all furs. They can now be made to look like expensive furs, similar to beavers, to retail at about $150 less than the cost of genuine beaver. one-four- - th 1 The General Motors and CIO-Unit- ed In readjusting 1946 crop goals, the department of agriculture sought to assure a greater supply of edible grain, nutritious relief fare, fats and oils and animal feed to meet not only U. S. needs but growing European emergency requirements. Because winter wheat already has been planted, the additional 1,000,-00- 0 acres asked will have to be seeded in the spring wheat area, the department declared. While North and South Dakota, Montana and Minnesota are expected to planf the bulk of the extra acreage, other spring wheat areas were called upon to increase their crop. Since smooth dry edible peas constitute a good protein relief food and ship well, the department planned for a 100,000-acr- e boost in plantings, principally in Colorado, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon and i Washington. With small world supplies of fats and oils in the face of the slow movement of shipments from the Pacific and heavy overseas relief needs, soybean goals were boosted by 1,100,000 acres.

Alive to the growing volume of installment financing, over 12,000 state and national banks will extend consumer credit in the postwar years, greatly expanding their prewar operations when they, supplied 46 per cent of such loans in the country. While not all of the banks intend to extend all types of consumer credit, 10,500 plan to make personal loans. By buying dealer paper or advancing money directly to consumers, 9,400 banks will finance sales of automobiles and 8,000 will back purchases of such goods as home appliances, farm equipment and airplanes. Over 5,000 banks will make FHA loans covering home repairs wfhile 7,900 will extend credit for modernization plans of small businesses or residential owners. is no other means is it possible, and this truth is as plain and patent that even very simple folk recognize it.

BIG MAN: ' Grows Bigger One of the biggest of the wartime entrepreneurs, Henry J. Kaiser continued his postwar growth with the leasing of two huge government aluminum mills at Spokane, Wash., ' with options to buy. In granting Kaiser companies use of the plants, the government an- nounced that it sought to increase competition in the industry presently dominated by two companies. Because Kaiser plans to extensively employ the metal in his automobiles, the government also said, he might open a new field for use of the material and thus open a market for other U. aluminum plants. In leasing the $47,630,000 Trent-wooaluminum rolling mill, Kaiser-Fraziagreed to pay a yearly rental amounting to 5 per cent of gross sales or fixed sums, running up to $2,667,000 in 1951. In obtaining the $22,270,000 Mead aluminum reduction plant, Kaiser Cargo, Inc., will pay annual charges up to $1,248,000 in the fifth year. ed cj er MEAT: Consumer Costs Though consumers will have to pay the full cost of the packing companies 16 cent an hour wage boost to employees, the actual outlay will approximate only 81 cents a year per person on the basis of record the department of consumption, agriculture reported. In arriving at the figure, department economists divided the 1 per cent price increase allowed packers into anticipated consumption of 155 pounds of meat per person in 1946 at an average of 35 cents a pound. However, the actual cost might be less since the estimated consumption of 155 pounds per person reflects a peak and is far above the average prewar level. Despite the 1 per cent price boost granted packers to offset the wage increase, the American Meat institute termed OPAs relief entirely inadequate if livestock is to flow to legitimate channels. Even with the new price increase, the institute said, legal operators would be pressed to compete with black marketeers in bidding for cattle.
