S. Deartment of griculture. Otis Bowman, Chairman of the ASC County Committee points out that even though the pay ment may vary’ slightly from the estimate baaed on the 10-month period, the payment will be sub stantial. Based on current est imates it will be about 40 per cent of the average price receiv ed for the wool. The Chairman also stresses that growers m usf get their ap- lication for payment on last year’s wool sales into the Coun ty ASC Offioe in Gold each be fore May 1, to be sure of their payment this year. Wool grow ers also are reminded that as a result of the favorable vote in the referendum last August a one-cent per pound deduction will be made from wool pay ments and 5 cents per hundred ounds from lamb and yearling payments to finance the cam paign to enlarge the market for wool and lambs. One of the returning sparrows | tells us of the traffic tangles which develop on superhighways, now and then, says when there is a tangle it usually develops into a dilly with cars halted, heading all ways, for miles, and no place to get off the route; I wreck removing rigs, cops and ambulances in th«' tangle; horns honking, and all that sort of thing. Then, after some minutes or hours, when the snangle gets a teeney bit unsnangled, a free for all develops. This sparrow said it sure wasn’t like his family traditions which tell of run-a-way horses being the only fear his ancestors had. It is sure wonderful how many youths repeatedly turn around in front of the PILOT office, just driving back and forth through town.

We find the “typical American” doing everything front herding cattle to firing planes . . . with everything from steak to chowder for his favorite dish . . . everything from beer to butter milk for his favorite beverage.
