(An Editorial) Practically all of us look for- *rard to the weekend as a time iSp1" re8t &nd pleasure. We can catch up on our golf game, work around the house and have some ftui with the children. It's the , tune for going to church, watch- **•£ television, listening to the tsfWl game or visiting or Visited "by friends. The weekends are all of those things -- except on the highly". In 1903, 15,800 persons w»re killed and 800,000 were injured in weekend accidents, according to figures compiled ant. recently released by a leading Iflsurancfc company. Forty-one per cent of the deaths and 36 per cent of the injuries were recorded on Saturdays and Sun- 4ftys in 1953. < Saturday continued to be the " fjioit dangerous day of the week. Oti* reason is that more cars are in use Saturday than on any weekday. There is another distinguishing feature which sets this day apart from the others. For too many people, Saturday night is a time when orinking and driving combine. No one knows exactly how many tralfic accidents are caused by drinking drivers but everyone knows it is a major problem. Everyone needs to know\ that even one drink before driving is too many. Weekends' indeed afe a time of rest.

GRASS SILAGE SAVES MORE FEED RHAN HAY-MAKING Farmers who have plenty of livestock and a large acreage of legumes may find it wise to make grass silage from their first cutting of hay crops. Making grass silage may prevent heavy damage to the hay crop, or even its complete loss, in rainy weather. But the risk of damage from rain in making hay is only one of the thipgs to consider in deciding whether or not to make grass silage, says K. E. Harshlarger, University of Illinois dairy science specialist. The storage facilities that are available are an important thing to consider. An Upright silo will take care of the stoiage problem. However, silage can be stored in either trenches or stacks at relatively low cost. Where drainage is poor, stacks will proyide better storage than trench silos. Ha rshbai ger suggests that farmers who have increased acreages of legumes and decreased* acres in corn this year may want to substitute grass silage for corn silage. Farmers who have been putting up corn silage will t'nd little difficulty in changing to grass silage, Harshbarger says. They would already have some type of storage for the silage and would need very little, if any, new equipment. But those who have a limited acreage of legumes and no silage- makifig equipment could probably not afford to buy the needed machinery. For' these farmers, hiring custom operators to make the silage may be the answer. Making grass silage will also save more feed per acre than making hay. On the average, Harshbarger says losses in haymaking run between ^0 and 30 per cent of the feeding value of the crop. Losses from making silage are lower, ranging from 10 to 15 per cent. The addition' of some preservative or conditioner is usually recommended for legumes in upright silos. Corn and cob mea!, J molasses or possibly sodium bi- I sulfite can be used. All of these j preservatives will add to the cost j of making silage, Harshbarger1 says, and some operators may prefer to make hay rather than go to this expense. Harshbarger says the need for feed is also a major factor to consider. Surplus hay can be sold as a cash crop, but forage crops made into silage cannot be readily sold. If there is likely to be a surplus of forages on the farm, or if the number of livestock "may be reduced, a farmer should probably stick to hay-making. WE OFFER YOU CONGRATULATIONS The very heartiest congratulations are in order this week for Mrs. Gertrude Justen, the city's oldest resident, who will be 96 years old on Saturday, June 5. Mrs. Justen remains very active, both physically and mentally, keeping up her 'home and also managing to stay abreast of current news happenings. No formal celebration is planned for the nonagenarian, who still spends several hours each day in sewing. It will be remembered that she chalked up an outstanding record for Red Cross sewing in World War II, even though at that time she was well over 80 years old. Her three living children, Mrs. Leona Marum of Edison Park, Miss Verena Justen and Peter M. Justen, plan to spend the day with her. Mrs. Justen is the last of two generations on two sides of the family. TRUCK ACCIDENT Traffic was slowed down on Elm street, near the Peter M. Justen funeral home, last Sunday morning wHien a heavily loaded milk truck broke through a storm sewer cover. A hoist Was needed to extricate the rear wheel of the vehicle.
