GERMAN OIL MENACED
As the Russians drove into Rumania this
week, well known and well read commentators
stated that the Ploesti and Galician oil fields
are absolutely essential to operation of the Ger
man war machine.
If that is true, how is Germany going to keep
her machine in operation without oil and gas
oline during the projected invasion of western
Europe, when the fields are almost certain to
be neutralized by capture by the Russians or
destruction by American and British bombers?
W e are right now watching the start o f the
most decisive summer offensive o f the war, and
we may be surprised at the turn the campaign
takes.
WILLKIE POOR POLITICIAN
After four years of attempting to gain the re
publican nomination, ever since his defeat by
President Roosevelt, Wendell W illkie will learn
this year that nominees are chosen in the sm-
•ke-filled rooms of the hotels located in the
cities where nominating conventions are held.
Willkie carried his message into Wisconsin,
where the first primary of the year was held,
and he emerged with not a single delegate, as
compared to 15 delegates gained by Governor
Dewey of New York, who has announced that
he is not a candidate.
W illkie would have come closer to securing
the nomination had he forgotten the dear public
and made his bargains with the politicians. He
has been too outspoken and has had too much
faith in the people to gain the support of the
party hierarchy.
Whether Dewey will gain the nomination, of
course, is a mooted question. Certainly this ye
ar, we are going to receive a lesson in politics
from the W illkie and Dewey tactics.

"Left-over carrots red to the farm

nic',” according to J. B Holladay.
assistant county agent.
“ Carrots contain over 5.000 more
units of vitamin A per pound than
alfalfa meal and over 14,000 more
than yellow corn. At this value car
rots are worth glO.OO to $15.00 per
ton as a poultry feed. This yellow
vegetable can be used advantage
ously since there is a shortage of
fish oils, corn, and other vitamin
A-bearing feeds.”
"Experimental data shows that a
deficiency of vitamin A in poultry
or turkey rations will cause stunted
growth, staggering gart, sore eyes,
respiratory diseases, reduced agg
production and lower hatchability,"
Holladay said.
"Chickens or turkeys will readily
consume whole carrots and they
make a desirable supplemental feed
They should be fed whole in open
troughs or on clean litter or sod.
Laying hens will consume 5 to 7
pounds per 100 per day.”
OPENERS OF CANS

Rationing has not emptied the

o f canned foods lt was revealed to
day. a total of 133,427 cans being
used monthly, according to A. H.
Nugent, general sales manager of
the American Can company.
Mr. Nugent based his figure on
the government's compilation of
19,767 ration book holders in the
county and the statement by the
U S . bureau of agricultural econom
ics that the per capita consumption
of canned goods during 1943 was
225 cans a day. On the basis of the
average size pre-war can, approx
imately 322 pounds of pure metallic
tin is reclaimable for the war e ff
ort from these cans, he explained.
Men in service eat 8,000,000 cans
o f food a day and millions of pou
nds of canned items are being sh
ipped abroad for lend lease, he
said.
