New Electric Supply For Farms Oregon 1-H Clubs Active In Farm Safety Program f be February 88th, it was nounced. Oregon 4-H club members are again enlisted in a rural safety campaign to eliminate dangers long overlooked on farms, says H. C.. Seymour, state club leader for the O. S. C. Extension service. Al though relatively few are enrolled in organized safety projects, most club members have safety precau tions called to their attention in connection with their other proj ects. This year the national 4-H farm safety program is sponsored by General Motors which will provide eight prizes in each state of $25 savings bonds, plus a special placque for the county with the best record. Champions from all states will compete for 16 trips to the national club congress this fall where 12 will receive $200 college scholarships. State winners in Oregon last I year were Henry C. Jaeger and Larry Wade, Condon; Charles Hor- ; necker, Cornelius; Darrell A. Quint Oregon City; Al Ziebert, Sublim ity; Miss Hazel Nelson, North Bend; and Eugene Storey, Sweet Home. Production Payments Deadline Near SIOUX CITY, 1A.—A new four-bladed, wind-driven generator for 32-volt farm lighting systems that will charge batteries in winds as low as five miles per hour makes possible a new electric supply for the one million farms beyond reach of power lines. Blades are air foils that are pulled around by the wind instead of being pushed as with the conventional pressure type used on standard wind mills This Wincharger is equipped with an automatic governor which feathers two blades to prevent excessive charging rate during high winds. The unit when used with proper type of storage battery will provide 103 kilowatt hours of dependable power per month. This is enough to operate an electric refrigerator, a water system, radio, vacuum cleaner, washing machine and iron, and provide power for cream separator, milking machine, illuminated chicken house and light-type pig brooder. • The average electric consumption of electrified farms in the United States is 71 kilowatt hours per month. Dairymen were warned by the local AAA office this week to sign their applications for production payments, covering the last 1945 quarter, as soon as possible at the AAA office.

It was news to me. Do you agree with that statement, Judge?” OLD JUDGE:“Yes, it’s true, Henry. It’s no notion of mine ... it’s a statement made by scientists who have studied the subject.” HENR F.-“ What did they find out, Judge?” OLD JUDGE: “Well, as a result of their medical research, they found out that ap proximately 95% of the people who drink, drink sensibly. 5% do so unwisely, at times. Included in that 5% is the^mall percentage known as alcoholics.” HENRY: “But why are they called sick people?” OLD JUDGE: “Because it has been die covered that, in many cases, excessive drink ing is a symptom of some physical or emo tional maladjustment ...not the cause of it.” HENRY: “Now 1 understand it, Jud"?. I am glad to hear of the modern ap; ach to this problem and that so much is really being done to help these folks.” Kerby, Oregon This advertisement sponsored by Conference of Alcoholic Beveraie Indueldet, Ine.
