1MM Steps Should Be Taken Now To Stop Corn Contamination LINCOLN SteDS should be ta ken now to prevent your 1957 j'iiun crop from becoming in ject and rodent contaminated, Robert Roselle. extension ento mologist at the University of Ne braska, stated today. Several simple precautions will help prevent stored grain from becoming infected, Roselle said. Preventative measures .should include the following: 1. Clean bins thoroughly and Farm, Home 9 Safety Needs Daily Practice LINCOLN Farm and home safety must be a year around project for every farm family, states William D. Lutes, exten sion farm safety specialist at the Universitvof Nebraska. The president has proclaimed the week of Julv 21-27 as Na tional Farm Safety Week. He urged farm people to focus na tion wide attention on the ser iousness of farm accidents. During the past year accidents claimed the lives of over 14.000 farm peoDle in the United Sta tes. Of that number. 3800 were the result of farm work accidents and another 3500 were killed in the farm home. "National Farm Safety Week is an ideal time to plan your personal and family safety for the coming year." Lutes said. "It is the resDonsioility of ev ery farm family to check close ly their work and play habits and make certain they realize that safety makes sense," Lutes stated. "Do not let yourself or a mem ber of your family be counted in the toll of accidents this year," Lutes added. Blueberries require an acid soil. Check the soil acidity in your garden if you're planning to grow blueberries. Bigger, Cleaner Yields with WIDE-FLOW FEEDING fa. .

Remove all spilled grain and feed from the vicinity of the bin. 3. Clean the entire areas around the bin. Kill weeds and remove all boards or iunk from the area. 4. Remove double walls If pos sible; if not, clean between walls by removing the lower boards, then force a sorav between the walls. 5. Spray all surfaces inside and outside the bin with 5 per cent methoxvclor spray. Use 2 and 2 cups of 50 per cent wet table powder to each gallon of water. 6. After bins are thoroughly clean, make necessary repairs. Rat and bird proof with sheet metal, hardware cloth and screens. Federal Food and Drug in spectors probably will conduct a stepped-up inspection campaign for insect and rodent contamin ated grain, Roselle said. Heat, Humidity May Kill Laying Hens In Summer LINCOLN Your laving hens may die of heat and humidity if proper measures are not taken this summer, Elvon C. Schultz, extension poultryman at the Uni versity of Nebraska, warned in citing a report from the Idaho College of Agriculture. Hens can stand temperatures up to 110 degrees if the humid ity is low, but if the humidity becomes high preventative mea sures will be needed at 90 de gree temperatures, Schultz said. Schultz made these suggest ions for reducing the temper ature of the henhouse: give the hens as much fresh air as pos sible, keep air moving through the house, use a perforated hose to wet the roof or paint it with aluminum paint to deflect the sun's rays.

Care Needed When Using Weed Killers LINCOLN Safety In the use of pesticides and week killers can save lives, reminds William D. Lutes, extension farm safety specialist at the University of Nebraska. Accidents with pesticides and week killers appear to be due to four main causes all prevent able: 1. Leaving material exposed to children and irresponsible per sons. 2. Failure to read and follow precautions on the labels. 3. Carelessness in the dispos al of empyt containers. 4. Careless handling and use of weed killer and defoliants. Lutes urges the following pre cautions: Do not keep control materials where food or foodstuff is stor ed or handled. Observe cautions to prevent poison residue on ed ible portions of plants. Wash hands and face thorough ly after spraying or dusting, and do not spill materials on skin or clothing. Burn or bury all empty containers. Use separate equipment for applying weed killers such as 2-4-D or 2-4-5-T. These materials cannot be removed satisfactor ily and using the applicator for pesticide application may cause serious damage to valuable plants. Always keep materials in orig inal, properly labeled containers and out of reach of children, pets or irresponsible persons. Before use, not poison antidotes, warnings and caution on the la bels of all chemical pesticides.
