Phone jWauoonda 4234 ISLAND LAKE, RT. 176 SklppHig Ftver Strikes la ChanftalMt Weaffctr The changeable weather of early spring la a danger season tor shipping fever In livestock, veterinarians warn. And when bad weather is coupled with crowded shipping c o n d i t i o n s . I n t e r r u p t e d f e e d i n g schedules and mishandling, heavy losses are likely to result. Purchasers of replacement stock as well as those who handld lot shipments are urged to be on constant guard against this disease, which causes respiratory trouble and blood poisoning. Pneumonia and paralysis develop in severe cases and death Is likely to follow ft diagnosis and toeatmsnt are delayed. - An unfortunate feature of this disease Is that symptoms may not appear until a day or more after the animal arrives at Its destination. If in the meantime the animal Is allowed to mingle with healthy stock, the others may become Infected. Still another danger Is the recovered animal, since those which have had shipping fever may remain as carriers. Control measures erf for vaccination with 'bacteria? at least two weeks prior to shipment. Serum treatment both before shipment and immediately ^after arrival is an alternative safeguard. Proper shelter from bad weather en route, along with regular feeding and watering, also helps to prevent outbreaks. Quarantine of all shipped animals at destination Is a final and highly Important precaution, since this keeps them from spreading Infection to stock already on the LINES <2 Complete line of OUTDOOR FURNITURE LAKE VIEW AWNING CO. •. ft.

Rafalreps Mf Tiar-Shapo, Special Statfy Discloses Contrary to popular conception, raindrops are not tear-shaped, and tor that matter neither would be tears If they fell very far, according to General Electric weather scientists. Instead of being symmetrically streamlined like a tear, large raindrops can change into a "new look" as often as 80 times per second and can resemble a variety of things, including pancakes, gourds, peanuts, telephone receivers, ducks, jelly beans, dumb bells, hot dogs, caterpillars, and even human feet. Smaller raindrops on the other hand often assume the shape of marbles and footballs. These resemblances are only a few of the marked deformations from the traditional tear shape that raindrops undergo periodically as they fall, the scientists said, In a special study simulating raindrop behavior, the O-K scientists developed an instrument known as a "drop controller," in which air resistance was produced similar to that falling raindrops encounter. Reversing the natural order, however, the instrument caused a rush of air to move upward against a drop of water, instead of the drop falling against the air. Wrong Party HE WAS undersized, meek, diffi dent, wibdned, and had applied for a Job as night-watchman. "Yes," said the manager, eyeing him <MHoushL "but the ffcet is we want someorfe who is restless and uneasy, especially at night; some one who thinks the worst at every body and whose suspicions are sel dom if ever allayed; someone who sleeps with ooe eye open alawys; someone with remarkable hearing, who starts at the slightest sound; someone who is always listening, thinking there are bad character* about. A meek, mild watchman would be of no use to us. We want a large, aggressive. Intrepid, and dangerous person; a good shot; bad-tempered, and revengeful, too. The kind of person In fact who, when roused. Is a fiend Incarnate." "I'll send the wife 'round," said the little man.

They started off, and the Scotsman excelled himself time snd again with remarkable drives, finishing off the .game by making a hole in one. His partner was speechless, and after a few minutes he grasped the Scotsman's hand. "I really must congratulate you," he said with emotion. "I've never seen a drive like that last one yours before. It's amazing." "We-el." replied the Scot, "it did save wear and tear on the ball." Ftfwf Sorvlee Cxperkaaal Skews RaMlts Oateat Dear Hunters in some mountain areas in the East may have to choose be tween deer hunting and rabbit hunting. Or it may work out that •BACHC8 SUPREME COURT The attorneys representing tile city of Crystal Lake have filed a petition for a Writ of Certiorari in the supreme court of the United States asking that court to review^ the judgement of the circuit good game management will call j courf of appeals entered against for more rabbit hunting to reduce surplus rabbits that are now caus ing deer to starve. Unfamiliar to many sportsmen are the lessons of a forest service experiment in the Allegheny national forest that show how rabbits can practically "eat deer out of house and home." Under limited hunting in aress where most predatory animals have been exterminated, deer have multiplied in some Appalachian mounttain areas until they are browsing the shrubs, bushes, and seedling forest trees faster than thts material grows. This condition is acute In areas at the base of the mountains and in sheltered valleys where deer concentrate in severe winter weather. To prevent increasing starvation of deer and continuing injury to the forests In Pennsylvania, it has been necessary to permit and even encourage hunters to bag female deer* On the Allegheny national forest, however, the rabbit situation 'complicates matters. At the Kane experimental forest In Pennsylvania the forest service enclosed several typical half-acre tracts to get the fscts as to how rapidly overbrowsed forest range can recover. Each tract was fenced to exclude deer, and half of each tract had a tighter fence that also excluded rabbits. In five-year and 10-year surveys it was clear that rabbits were damaging th« browse far more • than the deer. • Air Map* for Britain t Air maps are being used to plan the reconstruction and rebuilding of war-ravaged areas in Britain. T he R. A. F. Is using powerful new cameras. Including infa-red and stereoscopic instruments, and even radar. The new technique depends on the use of the radar methods developed for the Anglo-American bombing fleets over Germany. These methods enable the photographic aircraft to be navigated along the desired track and its position to be determined at the moment when the photograph is taken, relative to a pair of radar stations.

In the suit, brought by the yeast /ompacy the city was enjoined from interfering with the use of the city's storm seweres by the yeast company for the disposal of its waste products. The city contends that the sewer having been built by taxpayers' money, can only be used for public purposes. In fact, the city has contended during the entire litigation that the city officials who were In office in 1939 had no legal authority to enter Into the contract #h(ch allowed the yeast company to use public property for its own private purposes wtihout any benefit aocuring to the city.
