Each tray of seeds, when sprouted, produces about 40 pounds of feed. Shown aDOve at Gilman's Dairy are W. G. Jamieson, area agent for the units, and Mr. and Mrs. Lester H. Gilman. Dairy Feed From Sprouted Grain Recently Introduced in County A dairy feed from newly sprouted grain has been recent ly introduced in Jackson coun ty. Units to produce feed for 60 cows were recently installed at Gilman's Dairy, Merriman rd., and a 20 cow unit at Laurel Haven dairy farm owned by James and Nocla Edge, Eagle Point. Seed placed in trays in the units are automatically heated and kept damp by water con taining a chemical to hasten growth. In six days sprouts on theOseed grow to a height of about eight inches. Operators of the units at Gil mans claim that when cattle be come accustomed to the new feed the amount of hay fed may be reduced 50 per cent and the amount of dairy feed, 33 per cent. The manufacturers of the , About four pounds of oats are units claim that milk production and butterfat content of the milk will increase about 10 per cent when the sprouted grain is fed. Gilman stated that the new feed has not been used on his ranch long enough to determine results accurately. A 20-cow unit, constructed of glass and steel, has seven layers with 10 trays in each layer. 3 G3H3SJE3 , Torrid Letters Bring Rage of Tokyo Wives Tokyo (U.R) Scores of Tokyo husbands paled in bewildered fright today. And scores of angry Tokyo wives waved tor rid, perfumed letters under the noses of their husbands and de manded an explanation. "That night when I, an inno cent little girl who knew nothing about worldly things ran away from home to you my beloved," the letters began, "was for me my first embarrassing, yet hap py experience as a woman. "We have now become insep arable. Recalling memories of that night, my little heart will be filled with your lovable face. Your Tsu-yuko I am'and always shall remain lovable." That was about as far as most of the wives read before they turned on their stunned spouses. The husbands read further and found the answer. The letters were an advertisement for a Tokyo picture, "Iro Zange," or "Penitence for Sexual Passion. placed in each tray at Gilman's. The trays are watered automati cally and temperature is ther mostatically controlled at about 70 degrees by a fan blowing air over an electrical unit. By the second day the seeds are sprout ed and at the end of a week the feed ir. a single tray weighs about 40 pounds. Each tray will feed two cows. Cost Per Ton It ' is estimated that is costs about $17.50 per ton to produce the feed. Workmen at Gilman's said it takes about 30 minutes to empty and refill trays for one day's feeding for 20 cows. The idea of feeding sprouted grains is not new. It originated in Belgium long ago and a Belgian inventor developed and patented the present process. An open house will be held at Gilman's Dairy Sunday, Mar. 25 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. for those who wish to look at the new feed producing units. Local agent for the units is O. M. (Doc) Kesler, Jacksonville. Esfes Kefauver Takes Campaign Into California San Francisco U.P.) Sen. Estes Kefauver flew to Califor nia today to capitalize on his stunning victory in the Minne sota presidential primary elec tion. The presence of the Tennessee Democrat spurred his enthusias tic followers to get out and work even harder for a victory in Cal ifornia's June 5 primary where Kefauver again opposes a slate pledged to Adlai E. Stevenson. In State Fire Days Kefauver arrived in San Francisco before dawn after a flight from Great Falls, Mont. He will be in California five days. After a brief rest, he planned to appear at a news conference. Then he scheduled personal ap pearances in San Francisco's populous Mission and Fillmore districts. Tonight, he appears at a Bonds for Israel dinner and then crosses the bay to Richmond to address a labor meeting. He leaves for Los Angeles to morrow. . Meanwhile, supporters of Ke fauver and Stevenson differed in their interpretations of the Minnesota primary results. Crossing Lines Seen California Attorney General Edmund G. Brown, leader of "regular" party forces backing Stevenson, said the results meant that many Republicans crossed party lines to vote against Stevenson, "recognizing him as the most dangerous threat to President Eisenhower's election." But Lyle Cook, Northern Cal norma Kefauver campaign chairman, issued a statement saying Brown was "hard pressed for a cheerful response" to the election.

By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (U.R) Homely newcomer Ernest Borgnine and his picture, a low-budget little film named ' "Marty," " swept over veteran actors and expen sive pictures Wednesday night to win Hollywood's coveted Oscars. Another offbeat newcomer to Hollywood films, Italy's fiery Anna Magnani, was honored as the best actress of 1955 for her explosive role in "The Rose Tat too," her first U. S. movie. The supporting player awards made it an all-newcomer year. Jo Van Fleet snared the award for "East of Eden" and Jack Lemmon was honored for "Mis ter Roberts." But it was the toothy Borg nine and the unpretentious "Marty" that captured the sen timent of more than 2,000 celeb rities in black tie and glittering evening gowns who jammed the Hollywood Pantages Theater on Hollywood blvd., for the 28th annual award ceremony. Taken From TV "Marty" was made in New York from a television drama at a cost of only S300.000. But it swept over such multi-million dollar production as "Picnic" and "Mr. Roberts" in the election among the 1,700 members of the honorary academy of motion pic ture arts and sciences. Borgnine a year ago was only a player of small villain roles in films and a virtual unknown. But Wednesday night the 38-year-old actor heard his name called by Grace Kelly, last year's best actress winner, as the top actor of 1955 for his first star ring role a gentle, lonely butch er in Marty." None of the winners had been nominated before for an acade my award.
