The discussion will center around the development of a new sewer and water system and also the steps to be taken in regard to the building of a Livonia high school. Since Livonia already has a program well under way it will be comparatively easy to start the program in motion at the conclu- sion of the war thereby making work for soldiers in this area.

Farmers harvest ships and shells, guns and tanks, planes and para- chutes—as well as Food for Free- dom. Take corn and wheat for in- stance. Most of our wheat of course is converted into flour and bread, while most corn is used for livestock feed, and thus indi- rectly becomes bacon, ham, beef- steak, milk, butter, ice cream, chicken, eggs and other kinds of Johnny Doughboy's favorite foods. But corn and wheat also hello fire the big guns against the Axis. About 12% bushels of corn or wheat make a barrel of industrial alcohol, which in turn makes enough smokeless powder to fire a 12 -inch shell. Both corn and wheat are useful in producing synthetic rubber, about 333 bu- shels of corn going into a ton of rubber. Cotton is another war -time es- sential. Uncle Sam needs it for uniforms for his fighters. He uses long -staple cotton in soldier's rubberized rain -coats, and short - staple cotton in tents, tarpaulins and coveralls. The list of war uses ofNeotton is a long one. It includes inflat- able life rafts, barrage balloons, aircraft pontoons, some types of parachutes, the fabric belts that feed ammunition into machine guns—even Flying Fortresses.

Farmers who want "to give pheasants a break" are advised by conservation department game men that now is the time to haul and spread barnyard manure. Heavy snows have buried much of the weed seed crop on which pheasants feed in winter, and waste grain in manure spread near heavy cover will almost cer- tainly be used by the birds in this "pinch period," they say: This practice is cited as one of the many ways a farmer can benefit wildlife without additional labor or cost to himself.

In addition, 250 pounds of stored vegetables are needed, such as cabbage, potatoes, onions, squash, beets, carrots. The food budget also should include two bushels of apples. On the pocketbook side, the average good diet for one person would total nearly $200 in a year, if purchased. Home food production includes the factor of patriotism, the col- lege specialists report.
