Quality Feed Shortage May Boost Illnesses Due to shortages of quality feed in some areas, farmers were cautioned today to watch for a possible increase in digestive upsets and even fatal poisonings in cattle, swine and ofcfaer live stock this spring. '"The feed situation is tighter this year because much of last year's hay crop was rained on and a lot of wet, immature corn was harvested." the American Foundation for Animal Health said today. "The danger in feeding soft corn will increase with the ar rival of warmer weather," the report said. ' Farmers who do not check for proper balance in their rations when feeding soft corn to sows, may experience a sharp increase in stillborn, or sickly litters. "Feeding of moldy grain, hay, and -silage can be dangerous to all farm animals. Horses may get a "disease similar to sleep ing sickness. Another type of feed fungus can cause lumpy jaw in cattle. Moldy sweet clover hay may be responsible for a disease, which causes the blood of cattle to lose its clotting ability. Ergot poisoning can be another problem when grain grown in wet seasons is fed. A grain fungus is responsible for one type of pneumonia in poul try and calves. Several skin diseases of animals are also due to grain fungi. "If moldy or inferior feed has to be fed to livestock, keep a sharp lookout for poisoning symptoms, and at the first sign of trouble get a diagnosis. Some times the symptoms are easily confused with those of contag ious diseases, and proper treat ment will depend on correct and early identification of the exact trouble," the Foundation ad vised. Wheat Agreement To Be Discussed Representatives of wheat-producing states throughout the Great Plains area have been in vited by Charles Marshall, prsei dent of the Nebraska Farm Bu reau Federation, to meet in Omaha at the Hotel Paxton.

The story is all there plus Cinderella hit tunes including "Dream Is a Wish." "Bibbidy Bob bidy Boo," "Cinderella," "So This Is Love." The lovely Donna At wood plays Cinderella and Bobby Specht is the gallant Prince Charm ing. Cinderella is one Ice Capades number you will never forget.
