Heel Flies
Althm gh some dairymen
noted an attendant loss in milk pro
duction, many farmers have failed
to realize that the heel fly causes
severe pain to the milk cow as well
as considerable damage to the hide
and meat. Every heel fly is capa
ble of laying approximately 500
eggs on the hairs of the leg just
above the hoof. Within two to six
days, they hatch into small worms
which penetrate the skin, causing
some pain. As they increase in size
during the following 10 months, they
work their way to the back of an
.animal and, if not killed, develop
into what farmers call “wolves,”
also known as ox marbles or grubs.
Emerging through the skin, they
drop to the ground and hatch into
ibeel flies. Tests indicate that cattle
.given the grub treatment, which is
simple and inexpensive, gained
,from a fourth to a half pound more
[than untreated cattle during the
first 60 days following treatment.
Save Time
Many precious moments may be
saved during the breakfast rush if
dry ingredients for muffins or pan
cakes are mixed the night before.

Some Rayons Easy
Materials to Sew
Novices in the art of sewing some
times meet early discouragement
because they choose the wrong fab
rics with which to do their learning.
Although rayons have developed a
reputation, at least to some extent,
of being difficult materials to sew,
this isn’t necessarily true. *
True, the sheer ones that slip and
' slide and the loosely woven ones
that fray cause trouble for the in
experienced, but some rayons—par
ticularly spun rayons—are as easy
to sew as cottons would be.
The construction of the cloth,
’ rather than the kind of fiber from
which it was made, determines the
ease with which it can be sewed.
Beginners should look for firm
weaves, little stretch and medium
weight fabrics when buying rayons.
A heavy, bulky fabric is probably
as difficult to handle as are the sheer
ones. If the material has a rough
texture or a small all-over pattern,
a beginner’s irregular machine
stitching is less likely to show. How-1
j ever, large designs that require
matching should be avoided, for this
kind of cloth involves extremely
accurate cutting and careful match
ing at the seam lines.
Smoking Breaks Down
Quality of Cooked Fat,
To get the best use from fat in j
cooking as well as to save it for use !
again, heed the “no smoking” rule. |
When fat is overheated and
reaches the smoking point, it starts I
to break down chemically and three 1
unfortunate things happen. The fla- j
vor of the fat and of the food cooked ;
in it ia damaged. Food fried in
smoking fat is not easily digestible.
And finally, fat that has reached the
smoking point will turn rancid more
quickly than fat which has not
smoked if saved for use again.
To prevent fat from 'smoking,
keep heat low when melting fat for
sauce or pan-frying. Cook meat at
moderate temperature which is best
for the protein as well as the fat.
Remember that fats vary in the
amount of heat they can stand. But
ter, oleomargarine, drippings and
olive oil all tend to smoke quickly.

How Your Television “Commercial” Will Look 3
To enhance an impressive list of manufacturing “firsts,”
Chevrolet now engages in another pioneering venture as
the first motor cat manufacturer to sponsor a regular
commercial television show. Admittedly an exploratory
venture to evaluate the possibilities of television as an
advertising medium, these broadcasts were the first
employing live talent to be sponsored by any automobile

Halted Potatoes
Potatoes fresh from the oven con
tain a full quota of vitamin C which
is important to the health of teeth
and gums. Recently research work

one-third of their vitamin C content
if allowed to stand a half hour,
and one-half of their vitamin C con

Sanctified Church
Home Is Described
(EDITOR'S NOTE: Mr« T.u
W. Miller, whose father is S n
head of the Christ SanctifiS
Holy Church. 6 miles non? 6 2
Perry, was asked to give T?
Home Journai some information
about the church’s activities Th
following article was kindly fur
nished). r ’
There is a dormitory and mess
hall next to the Tabernacle where
between 300 and 400 people ar!
often fed at each meal,
A cemetery with the tomh
stones alike-No big I’ s and lit*,
tie Us. Bodies of deceased
members have been shipped here
from Memphis, Tenn., Mobile
Ala., Arizona, Norfolk Va’
Wilmington; N. C., Savannah
Rome and Atlanta, Ga.
Old Folks Home
There is also an Old Folks
Home where destitute members
of the church may spend their
last days with no worries about
food, rent, hospital or medical
bills. Three members from this
fnme have gone from labor to
reward and their bodies now lie
in the cemetery, but you wouldn’t
know it by their tombstones be
cause it’s just like that of the
wealthiest one buried there.
There are perhaps 35 camp
houses where members of the
chruch living in other places may
have a comfortable place to stay
during camp meeting.
What the church needs most
now is a new home for the old
folks when money and material
are available.
The place they now occupy is
the old Woolfolk home and it
cannot be made comfortable and
is entirely too small.
Mrs. John W. Miller.
