Farm Family Non-Money Income One of the factors affecting farm family living is the use of the non money income. Families can realize a substantial income from their home produced products and services of the farm. Since the greater share of the family's Income is spent for food, why not plan to produce more food on trie farm so that the family can enjoy more of the other things so essential to good living. For example, families with moderate food expendi tures paid out an average of $27 a year for medical services as com pared with $20 spent by the families with high food expenditures. This difference does not mean that the for mer group had more illness; it prob ably seems that their needs were less adequately cared for. The more goods and services that can be realized from the farm itself the more cash is made available for other types of purchases. The na tional study shows that when food bills are moderate as much as a third more may be spent for purchased clothing. The 1939 farm family living chart for Nebraska tells us that the value of goods and services furnished by the farm for family use contributed 31 per cent of the total living value. Can we as homemakers increase our non-money Income from the farm so that we can have more cash available for things that the family may de sire? Mineral Needs of Farm Cow Herd According to M. L. Baker of the North Platte experimental station, under most conditions, the only min eral requirements of the farm cow herd, not likely to be supplied by ordinary feeds are calcium and phos phorous. It is probable that phos phorus is more likely to be deficient than is calcium unless grain or some protein supplement such as cotton wood cake or meal is supplied. In work with breeding cows at the North Platte substation, in which the basal ration was prairie hay, it was found that additional phos phorus was needed to maintain a proper level of phosphorus in the cow's blood. A low phosphorus level in the blood is jyi indication of poor phosphorus nutrition as is poor appetite, and a depraved appetite as shown by chewing boards and bones. Steamed bone-meal fed in a mixture of two parts of bone meal to one of salt maintained a normal phosphorus level. The feeding of 1.0 pound of cottonseed cake which contains ap preciable amounts of phosphorus also provided at least approximately enough phosphorus for the cows. It also supplied protein. Both minerals and protein are essential for the regular production of calves and for the production of milk. It was found at North Platte that on the rations deficient in protein and phos phorus a smaller percentage of calves was produced and that calves were significantly smaller at both birth and weaning than if their dams were supplied with these essentials. Another mineral mixture which is widely fed is made of 2 parts of ground limestone, 2 parts of steamed bone meal, and 1 part of salt. Cattle are given free access to the mineral mixtures. This same mixture is suit able for all classes of livestock. After Christmas Questions Up for reply today are some familiar after-Christmas questions. Here is a question about candle-wax stains on a table cloth. And here is one about a roasting pan scorched on the bottom. Let's take up these problems, one by one. The first question is about candle wax on a best linen table cloth. Here is what to do about it. First scrape off as much wax as you can with the blunt edge of a knife. Now lay a clean white blotter underneath the stain, and lay another blotter on top of the stain. Now press over the blotter with a hot iron to melt out the solid wax. Usually a little grease still remains in the cloth. You can remove this by sponging with carbon tetrachloride or some other grease solvent. If a little of the color still remains sponge it out with alcohol or peroxide of hydrogen. This la the easiest way to remove candle wax, but If you have no blot ting paper on hand you can rub the spot with cold lard, or turpentine, or kerosene oil and then wash it out with warm soap suds. Now let's turn to the next ques- m tion. This is one about an enamei- ware roasting pan burned on the bottom. Any burned pan is sad be cause removing burned material is such a long.tlresome job. To remove the food burned on the pan, first try to soften and loosen it. Cover the bottom of the pan with warm soapsuds containing a little washing soda. Let the pan soak over night. In the morning put the pan on the stove' and bring the soapy water in it to a boil slowly. Remove it from the stove, pour off the water, and gently scrape off the loose scorched material with a spoon. Never scrape enamelware with anything sharp or harsh, because it is likely to chip. Don't scrape too hard either. Remember that enamel ware is like a thin glass coating over an iron foundation. iBut let's get back to the burned pan. The next problem is how to remove the black substance that didn't soak loose and clings so tightly to the pan. The answer is: Use patience, time and a very gentle scouring material. Scour with fine steel wool or a fine scour ing powder. In time you'll rub off all the black. But it's a job. There is no quick and easy way of doing it that doesn't injure the enamel. Give Your Livestock Plenty of Water The importance of an abundant supply of water In livestock produc tion throughout the year cannot be overemphasized. Ordinarily we do not think much about water when we talk about livestock feeding prin ciples, says Dr. L. C. Hanson of the University of Nebraska. This is be cause under most conditions water is relatively easy to supply and there is nothing mysterious or complicated about water such as is the case with some vitamins and minerals. Although our farm animals can get along with less water in the winter than in the summer, the good stock man sees to it that plenty of water is always available for his stock. Why is water so important? The answer is obvious when we consider the following facts: 1. Usually more than 50 per cent of the entire animal body is water, and even in very fat animals, water makes up 49 per cent cr more of the total body weight. 2. Water makes up about 80 per cent of the blook in the animal body. 3. About 75 per cent of the muscle tissue in the body is water. 4. Even the bones contain about 40 per cent of water. With the normal animal body containing so much water, it is plain ly evident why animals must be pro vided with an ample supply even to maintain themselves. When the ani mal grows, a large per cent of the live weight is water. Likewise an animal that i3 producing milk must have an ample supply of water since milk is about 90 per cent water, whether she is a beef cow sucking her calf or a sow nursing a litter. It is preferable to allow our live stock free access to water at all times. In winter thi3 is not always practicable and where it is not the animals should be watered at least twice each day to insure their get ting as much as they need. There seems to be some difference of opin ion a3 to the value of heating water for livestock. However, It is desir able that the water should be heated enough to keep it from freezing. PREPARE LARGE BUDGET WASHINGTON, Dec. 28 (UP) A double budget of around ten billion dollars for defense and seven billion to eight billion dollars for regular governmental operations during the fiscal year 1942 probably will be sub mitted to congress by President Roosevelt on January 7. Officials said there would be ' sharp cleavage" between two parts of the budget which will come close to a record high of more than eighteen billion dollars during 1918. Federal expenditures during the fiscal year which ends June, 1941 passed the five billion mark on De cember 26, the treasury reported to day.. Expenditures for national de fense were more than double what they were a year ago. South Bend Special Journal Correspondence Herbert Blum has chicken pox.
