1 Working Meals for Work ing Men Restaurant and cafeteria serv ice is available in manufacturing plant.- where about nine million indu.-trial workers are cm ployed. Before the war, only about two and one half million workers had similar services. The Production and Marketing Administration is credited with having much to do with promot ri the development. Although the services of the administra tion vcre suspended in May 1947. most of the- food services it helped to inaugurate have been continued by employers. The restaurant an1 cafeteria service was started during the war when the cry for maximum production efficiency showed the need for providing adequate meals on the job. It was contin mci becau-e it supplied a need in industrial plants and was a large and concentrated market for foods availabV in abundance. Both management and labor quickly recognized the benefits cf the program through the in creased production efficiency and better health of workers. The farmer benefits from the I rogram because nine million orkers e n consume a lot of the products of The farm.

The members of Fontenelle chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution were en tertained at the home of Mrs. Georf,-? b Mann on Tuesday eve ning. The report of all committees were received and reviewed by the members planning for the forthcoming state convention of the society that will be held on March 9. 10 and 11 at the Paxton Hotel in Omaha. The local chap ter will be represented by Mrs. Violet Dodge Huneerford of Omaha, delegate, Mollie Gobel man, local regent and Mrs. E. H. Wescott, past state regent of the society. The members als0 discussed the Stratton bill, now pending before Congress, seeking to in crease the quota on persons coming into the United States from foreign lands. The DAR has opposed for a great many vears the increasing of the quo ta at anv time and have reaf firmed their stand and opposi tion to the pending bill. The memlors of Fontenelle chapter also had a quiz on "Uses of the United States Flag" that proved most interesting to all of thf members. Mrs. Mann served a delicious luncheon at an appropriate hour to close the evening.

Fouts, extension livestockman, is one way to produce more pork with less labor, feed,, and equipment. Sow testing involved three simple practices ear marking Pigs at farrowing time; weigh ing pigs when they match 56 days old ing- time; and selecting replace- ment gilts from the best litters. In areas where sow testing has been carried on for several years, weaning weights of lit j ters have been increased from I 275 to 440 pounds. In addition, i the feed requirements for each I 100 pounds of pork produced have varied from 570 pounds ior inelticient litters to 340 pounds for those more efficient. Fouts has prepared an exten sion circular on "The Swine Production Record"' which has just been sent to the offices of county agricultural agents.

The circulation for the month of January was 3,596 books. There were 495 referenc es given. Each week new books are add ed to our shelves. Many are fic tion. Some are classified. Two of the latter are "Phunology" (a book of good times) by Harbin and "The Great Rehearsal" by Carl Van Doren. This is a fas cinating book on how the United States became a great nation. It is said that this book is arous ing wide interest because no doubt it is realized that this story is but a rehearsal of what takes place to build a world organiza tion such as is hoped will evolve out of the present "United Nations." Two of our new books for children are "Bengey and the Beast" by Olaf Baker and "Hide ont" bv T. Morris Longstreth. The "Children's Activities" mag 8 SALE STARTS FRIDAY! SEVEN BIG DAYS!
