Our good fellowship between town and country people was shown at the second annual Farm City banquet held Monday evening of this week. It was at tended by approximately 125 per sons; everyone present seemed to enjoy the program of the even ing and the opportunity to discuss mutual problems. These are the objectives of the observance of Farm-City week. We are sure that these objectives were met at our annual banquet. Morrow county livestock men will be interested in following through on the results of a dem onstration which was set up re cently at the Bernard Doherty ranch in the Blackhorse commun ity. In this demonstration one half of the cows of Bernard's herd were treated with systemic in secticides Trolene and Co-Ral for cattle grub control. One half of the herd was left untreated as a check. The herd will be inspected for grub control comparing those that were treated with the un treated. The treatment is claimed to be highly effective in control ing grubs in the system before they migrate to the backs of cattle where holes are punched for em ergence of the grub which con sequently causes damage to the hide as well as to the meat and the ability of the animal to make the best gains In beef and to hold up milk production. Treatment was made orally using a specified number of boluses depending on the weight of the animal. Main advantage of this systemic treat ment over the old method of spraying with rotonone is a one shot treatment compared to sev eral sprayings at critical periods. r Girl Hot-Rodder- Builds Own Racing Car art -is L - 1.' minutes work.

While by the time most people have read this column they will have finished their Thanksgiving dinner they may be interested to know that the traditional turkey is offering welcome relief from the high cost of living. While most costs continue to soar, the price for your Thanksgiving tur key was 18 to 20 cents a pound less than was paid 10 years ago. This year's big crop of turkeys are bringing an average price of 42 cents a pound while 10 years! ago oven ready birds were cost ing 60 cents a pound. What's more this lower price turkey is coming at a time when average wages in the country are at an all time high. This brings out some inter esting facts. For example, in 1947 the average factory worker in the U.S. had to work 29 minutes to earn the price of one pound of turkey. This year he can buy a pound of tuTkey with only 12 THANKSGIVING IONE LEGION HALL FromlOp.m. $1 .25 per person Music by THE ROYAL DUKES Sponsored by IONE AMERICAN LEGION Santa 'Clint' McQuarrie - SAYS -"If You Have Our Number YOU'LL WIN 6-PIECE SET MASTERPIECE SUPER STAINLESS STEAK KNIVES COME CHECK OUR NUMBER" ' r - ' -' ' ' : V v . t ' , MINCE AND PUMPKIN Frozen Pies ... 2 f or Qoc Fresh Cranberries 2 Bo9$ 55c CELERY lb. -I ffc DUNCAN HINES F rozen ceas TOi YAMS b SWEET POTATOES lb 15c ORANGES 5 lb. bag 59c Central Market WE DELIVER PHONE 6-9614 - AMSlbtM it'."- 1 1 ' ft' ' SANTA PHIL BLAKNEY SAYS "MY FREE GIFT THIS WEEK ISA ParkerT-Ball Desk Set Check Our Store For Your Lucky Number To Her DOROTHY GRAY - SHULTON' REVLON - COTY PRINCE MATCHABELLI COSMETICS Beautifully gift boxed to suit every taste.
