Why a Bvllet Penetrates Better Front a Distance The phenomenon of bullet tration is always interesting to the big game hunter, yet the details of it are often a mystery. Manufacturers are frequently asked a question which usually pursues the following pattern: "Standing close to a small tree, I fired point blank at it. The biftlet did not penetrate all the way through. Yet when I fired at it from a distance of about 75 yards the bullet went through and came out on. the other side. Why is this?" "This fact can very easily escape the average shooter." says Dr. C. S. - Cummings, supervisor of ballistics and physics research, Remington Arms Company. Inc., "yet the answer is relatively simple "It is a known fact that armor piercing bullets which may penetrate plate poorly close to the muzzle will go completely through •t distances of 75 to 100 yards. The reason for this difference in penetrating effect is to be found 'in the instability of the bullet at the muzzle. When a bullet leaves the muzzle of a gun it tends to have a fair amount of wobble or, as it is known technically, yaw. This is due to the sudden release of unbalanced forces which tend to get the bullet started in a slightly erratic path. Consequently, if the bullet strikes a target which is close to the muzzle, there is a good chance that it will not strike the target at strictly normal incidence, i.e. 'dead on.' However, as the bullet passes down the range, the yawing motion tends to become damped out and the flight of the bullet becomes steadier. Thus, when it strikes a target 100 yards down the range, it is more likely to 'strike squarely and so penetrate more successfully."

I. extmaiMi tervice food presenrition specialist, reminds us that tfoxen butter will stay fresh for six months or longer if it is of good quality. Poor butter deteriorates even when frozen. Another important faet is that butter from pasteurized sweet cream will keep better than that made from sour cream. Before freezing butter, wash it thoroughly to remove all of the milk. While wrapping butter in parchment paper, press out all air remaining between5 paper and butter; then pack butter in wax cartons. Ordinary household wax paper is not satisfactory. It will not keep the air out which may cause the butter to become rancid.

Corn fields, as well as clover and alfalfa pastures, are danger spots for livestock during August, the American Foundation of Animal Health warned last week. Severe losses occur because of bloat and impaction when cattle get into corn fields through gates carelessly left open or through fences. Clover or alfalfa pastures are also dangerous at certain times after it rains, the Foundation said* , Here are some pointers for farmers on this subject given by veterinary authorities of the Foundation: "Cattle to be placed on clover or alfalfa pastures for the first time should first be given all the hay they will eat, then turned out into the pasture after rain and dew have evaporated. "About a half-hour is long, enough for cattle to graze the; first few times. The animals i should be kept in the lot during! t h e n i g h t w i t h p l e n t y o f w a t e r a n d i salt. Hay should be fed in the j morning. , I "Keep close watch over cattle1 on clover or alfalfa pasture dur-1 ihg rainy weather. | • "fn case symptoms of bloat or > Impaction appear, speed in getting | prompt veterinary attention often represents the difference between' saving an animal and losing it."

Don't vaccinate unless the disease has appeared on your premises in past years or unless it seems likely to strike in your locality. * 2. Once vaccination is started, it < must be repeated every year and must include every bird in the flock. 3. Fowl pox vaccine contains live - virus that can spread and infect neighboring flocks; therefore, owners of nearby flocks should be ad- . vjsed of your vaccination plans, 4. The flock must be in good health when vaccinated. 5. The exact age for vaccination is determined mainly by individual flock conditions, but it should be performed at least two months before the birds go into egg production. 6. If it is necessary to vaccinate birds already in production, pigeon pox vaccine should be used. This gives shorter immunity than fowl pox vaccine, but does not cause such a severe reaction. unify ll! 8.
