Manpower Priority
Plan Into Effect
The War Manpower Commission's
new "priority referral plan which
jjoes into effect on July 1, 1944, has
been brought 'before the Area War
-Manpower 'Laibor-Management Com-
mittee for tffis East Texas Urea, ac-
cording to Horace W. Kershner, Ar-
<ea War 'Manpower Director. The Ar-
■ea Committee accepted this "priority
referral plan" in a meeting held May
-31, 1944.
This plan, said Mr. Kershner, is a
"voluntary plan, to recruit sufficient
.male workers to staff critical jobs
in Texas and the United States. This
plan also was decided upon in place
of a National Service Act, which was
asked for by both the Army and Na-

Caution, Ut< Only at Directed
vy, as the only method of staffing
vital war plants.
This new program provides that
idle workers will be offered assign-
ments in the order of importance of
the job to the war.
An applicant may be referred to a
non-essential job only under these
conditions."
If he is not needed for an essential
job in the area; if he is not adapt-
able to an essential job outside the
area, or if there is undue hardship,
special emergency circumstances, or
other good cause.
The workers and employees in
East Texas have always cooperated
100 per cent, said Mr. Kershner. We
are now entering one of the war's
most critical stages. Continued coop-
eration is necessary now more than
ever.
The Axea Labor-Managment Com-
mittee is in the process of drafting
the method of applying this new
"priority referral plan" to this East
Texas Area.
Says Mineral Oil
Injurious To Food
Increased war-time use of miner-
al oil in salad dressings, salted nuts,
potato chips and doughnuts may have
serious natritional consequences.

"\Tl7"ith the coming of hot sum-
* mer weather, every dairyman
faces the attack of one of our most
dangerous enemies—the insect. It's
a merciless war and if the insect pests
win it means irritated cattle and
lowered milk production. The loss
that insect pests inflict upon dairy-
men runs into the scores of millions
of dollars every year.
There's no time like the present
to open up a "second front" upon
these allies of the Axis and we've
prepared a handy guide to help you
win the fight. It is called "Your
Handy Guide for your War on
Insects". It contains a brief descrip-
tion of the principal insect pests,
where they are found, what they do,
and what you can do in the way of
control and treatment.
This guide may be tacked to the
wall of your barn for ready reference.
I am giving this guide away free.
There is no charge or obligation of
any kind. You may get the guide
from your Kraft ficldman or by writ-
ing to me in care of the Kraft Cheese
Company, 500 Peshtigo Court,
Chicago, Illinois.
If wc give our insects here at
home the kind of ix boating that
the Allies are handing (he "in-
sects" in Asia and Kurope, we'll
be doing all right.
Of course, every dairyman who
wants to do the best kind of a job
should be thinking right now about
the kind of a milk house he intend?
to have sooner or later.
Your county agent probably has
plans for different types of milk
houses which have been made up by
the state agricultural extension
service. Your Kraft fieldman or the
manager of your nearest Kraft plant
will be glad to co-operate in any
way he can.
The fellow who wants to go to
the city and make hey — hey,
would be a lot better off if he
would go to the field and make
hay—hay for his cows.
A few weeks atjn I men! ioni l the
studies made at t; • University of
Minnesota which showed how much
faster milk could be cooled with
water than with air. Since 'hen, I
have had several requests for infor-
mation on how to build a good
emergency water cooler. A bulletin
from Tennessee illustrates how one
may be made from a barrel with a
minimum of expense.
The diagram
-„g~y _ at the left is
^ ^ J!eL taken directly
from this bul-
letin. This, of
course, is an
emergency
device. The
best cooling system is the milk house
tank. If you can use one of the barrel
coolers in the meantime, I suggest
you write for Dairy Letter No. 4,
Department of Agricultural Ex-
tension, University of Tennessee,
Knoxville, Tenn.*
Now if I could juat figure out
•ohm way of walking around in
one of thoM barrel coolers dur-
ing hot WMther, I'd be mighty
haw
Which brings up the subject of the
right time for cutting hay. Ail of the
extension services agree that hay has
different food values at different
stages of maturity. They also agree
that it should be cut early for highest
food values.
For example, in Bulletin 218,
Minnesota advises that clover hay
will be much higher in food value
if cut when the first heads begin to
ripen. They also recommend th'it
all grass hays be cut before they
come into bloom to get the maxi-
mum protein content. Sweet clover,
too. should be cut before the :'irst
blossoms appear because the stems
rapidly grow woody.
In Bulletin 242. Purdue Univer-
sity recommends that alfalfa be cut
after the one-tenth bloom stage and
before full bloom. In Bulletin 346 on
soybeans, Purdue describes a series
of chemical analyses to determine
the food content of soybean leaves,
pods and stems during the later
stages of the growing period.
As a result of these analyses,
Purdue recommends that soybean
hay be cut when the pods are com-
pletely formed, the beans practically
fully developed in the pods with the
lower leaves turning yellow. This
stage is superior to earlier ones for
both milk and butter-fat production.
If you do not have Minnesota's
Bulletin 218, write the Extension
Service, University of Minnesota,
St. Paul, Minnesota.* For the
Purdue Bulletins, write the Exten-
sion Service, Purdue University,
Lafayette, Ind.*

Atoy
Phipps of the A. and M. College Ex-
tension Service who cites nutrition
research at state experiment stations
which have shown that mineral oil
robs the body of at least two of the
fat-soluble vitamins necessary to
health and also of two important
minerals, calcium and phosphorus.
The American Medical Association
also has issued a recent warning
against indiscriminate use of miner-
al oil, Miss Phipps says. The AMA
statement says prolonged use of min-
eral oil can interfere seriously with
the absorption of Vitamins A, D, and
K by the body.
The specialist in food preparation
explains that because doctors some-
times recommend mineral oil for
special diets, apparently many peo-
ple prescribe it for themselves.
Mineral oil has come into wider
use in food preparation during the
year because it has not been ration-
ed along with other fats and oils and
because it has been plentiful and
relatively cheap. Nor does it become
rancid. It has practically no taste,
so it cannot be detected in salad
dressings.
