CONSERVATION FARMING GAINS IN DAVIE COUNTY
As a result of conservation
practices which farmers have
established, rainfall will damage
much le,s.s farm land In №e Mid
dle Yadkin district during 1944,
says G. W. McClellan, soil con
servation service technician, as
signed to the district'.
Fewer gullies will be formed,
he continued, less topsoll will
be washed out of the fields, and
more of the rainfall wUl soak
into the land to be used by
growing crops.
The conservationist reports
that .since the organization of
the district five years ago, great
strides have been made, in soil
conservation. During tiiat time
1832 conservation farm plans
have been prepared, he says,
covering a total of 177,826 acres
of land.
These plans call for changing
cropping practices, growing
more annual and perennial
cover crops, constructing ter
races, .establishing meadow
strips, planting trees, and set
ting out plants and shrubs for
wildlife.
Conservation fanning is con
stantly gaining practical recog
nition In Davie county, McClel
lan says. More and more farm
ers are realizing the dangers of
reckless farmliig method;), by
which the productive soil is
washed away in a few years, and
are establi.shing practices de-
slgiuBd to prevent this from hap
pening.
He cited experience' of Wade
Groce, whose farm Is located
near Cana, one of the farmers
ooperating with the district, Mr.
Groce has terraced 120 acres,
and is carrying out a three year
soil building rotation of (1) corn,
(2) grain and clover, and (3)
clovers.
In addition he has 20 acres
permanent pasture and planted
kudzu.
"I have found this way of
faiuning much easier timn the
old way.” Mr. Groce says, "and
It certainly saves a lot of soil.
It has also Increased my crop
yields at least 20 per cent and(enabled me to make rgeater
contributions to the food pro
duction program.”
McClellan Invites farmers who
are interested in getting conser
vation practices established on
their farms to contact J. O.
Crawford, one of the supervisors
of the district. Information may
also be obtained from the dis
trict ofTice located In Salisbury.
Each week The Enteriwlse minunarizes the war
news, both abroad and at home, so that readers may
get a quick, bird’s eye view ,of important happenings.
More than 30,000 U. S. marine and army troops, sup
ported by the most powerful naval, striking force in history,
made landings, which began last Monday on Kwajaleln
Atoll in the Marshall Islands, winning beachheads near
Rol and Kwajaleln Islets. This is the first ground attack
against territory held by Japan before Pearl Harbor, the
Marshalls having been in her poe8essk>n for 25 years. This
daring assault appears to be going well but casualties are
expected to be heavy. The Atoll is flat and gives tin advan
tage to the defenders.
There was some hope that the Дар navy might now be
forced to coDie out and fight but most military observers
think the Japanese navy will not fight until her homeland
is attacked.
Admiral Nimitz .said the object of the attack was to
take all of the Marshalls—a hard undertaking which In
volves the capture of 32 Islands and 867 reefs scattered
ove» 800 square mlles'pf ocean. -
IIE.WIEST AIR ATTACK IN HISTORY
Hitler’s Europe has been rocked by the greatest sus
tained aerial assault in history, more than 10,000 tons of
bombs being dropped in 83 hours and the drive continues
around the clock, Berlin was hit four times in three days,
as well as key industrial centers and the pre-invasion ham
mering of northern France went on relentlessly.
YANKS PUSH ON
Allied forces have extended their bridgehead below
Rome by successful attacks near Cisterna, 26 miles south
east of Rome, while Americans on the main Fifth army
front smashed through part of the j)owerful Oustav line in'
fierce fighting north of Cassino. The anticipated heavy
counterattack by the Germans against the new Allied
bridgehead has not yet developed, although it is expected
at any moment. • .
RUSSIANS ADVANCE
Meanwhile the Russians have advanced to within five
miles of the Estonian border. Berlin says the Russians
have also resumed their encircling attempts in the Vitebsk
area and Hitler is reported to have visited this sector two
weeks ago and told German troops if Vitebsk fell the Rus
sians would cross the German frontier in a very short time.
HITLER SPEAKS
Hitler made a speech Sunday of 23 minutes, one of
the shortest of his careei", on the 11th anniversary of the
Nazis’ assumption of power. He admitted that a ftussian
victory was possible and that it would mean the total de
struction of Germany. He also tried to drive a wedge be
tween the Allies by talking of the dangers of bolshevism.
JAP ATROCITIES
In orie of the most horrible revelations of wai', this
country has released the story that at least 7,700 Ameri
cans captured by the Japs on Bataan and Corregldor had
been beheaded, starved, tortured or buried alive after being
taken prisoners. Some think the total is somewhere around
25,000. The evidence was released from official accounts
of American officers who escaped and was turned loose
now, it was said, because this country had given up all
hope of getting Japan to allow food and medical supplies
to reach the captured men. Secretary Hull said he had
made 100 official protests of the treatment of American
prisoners since Pearl Harbor and that none of the protests
had been answered.

Notifying Next of Kin
All of us know that hard fighting and many casualties
are ahead of us this yeai’. Even last week another l9avie
family was notified that their son was killed In action.
Notification of death, injury or mlSsing is made'to the next
of kin by a telegram from the Adjutant General’s depart
ment in Washington.
We know of some Instances where a lone parent had to
receive such a shock in a public place from a messenger
boy. Some towns have adopted the policy of having tele
grams, particularly where a relative is killed, turned over
to a committee of loc4 cltlsens who in turn notify the par
ents under the most sympathetic conditions possible. El
kin is such a place. There the committee is composed of
pastors and the Y. M. C. A. secretary. Who could moie ap
propriately ease such sorrow and pain than a loving friend
or pastor?
W U SAID YOU’D SEE ME THE
RRST THING IN THE MORNING!'
A Changed Attitude
An editorial in the Asheville Citizen furnishes us with
some matter for reflecting upon the changed attitudes
which may, and which oug^t to, come about in many areas
of social and political life. This editorial reflects the feel
ings of many of us who have long been in sympathy with
labor, but who have become deeply concerned over its lack
of a sense of responsibility in the use of its newly-won
powers and privileges. Commenting upon the resolution
of the North Carolina Federation of Labor, the Citizen
says:
“Meeting in Salisbury Sunday, the executive board of
the North Carolina Federation of Labor authorized a letter
to Representative Cameron Morrison thanking him for his
friendly votes in Congress and tendering its support in his
race for the United Sttaes Senate.
“Older citizen will read of this action with mild amaze
ment. They will recall the fury with which organized la
bor denounced Governor Morrison, particularly in 1922.
“Organized labor’s grievance against Governor Morri-
fion was the fact that he dispatched state troops to preserve
order at many strike-bound plants in the state. Labor
leaders argued that he was employing the soldiers to break
strikes.
“The truth of the matter is, of course, that Mr, Mor
rison, was never hostile to labor. He was Intent only on
preventing disorders. He discharged his duty, with a forth
right courage that infuriated the labor leaders.
“The abuse which was heaped upon Governor M oitI-
son then did not Influence him in^the slightest. He did his
duty as he saW it and left his critics to fume in their rage.
His proclamation to the Rocky Mount strikers resounded
throughout the state: ‘I warn those who are engaged in
this lawlessness and threats of lawlessness that they can
not prevail against organized society and that if they do
not at once come to order and conduct their cause with ar
gument rather than with menace, threats and violence, I
shall throw all the military power of this State against
them without further delay.’
“There has been no change. The Citizen believes, in
Cameron Morrison. The change, if any, is in the leader
ship of the American Federation of Labor.' In accepting
as a friend a man whom it once denounced as an enemy,
it shows how time has softened judgment and erased ani
mosities.”
“Keep ’Em Grazing”
Hog Grower’s Slogan
Bred sows or gilts should be
kept on a good pasture or they
should be fed green colored lea-
pedeza, soybean, or alfalia hay
of good quality In a rack, says
Ellis Vestal, extension swine
specialist at State college.
He sugge.sts a slogan, "Keep
Em Grazing," for all hog pro
ducers In 1044 so as to save on
labor and also to make grains
and protein supplements go as
far as possible.
For sows and gilts, Vestal rec
ommends that they be fed Just
enough grain to keep the ani
mals In good flesh. Pull feM a
mineral riiixture at all tfanes.
Thirty days before the pigs are
born, It Is good practice to hand
feed a small amount of protein
supplement dally.
After the pigs are ten days
old, the sow may bo given all
the grain and mineral mixture
they want. About 1-3 pound ot
protein supplement can be hand
fed to each sow dally. Vestal
suggests a creep for the pigs,
using shelled corn or ground
grains In the trough.
"Wean the pigs when they are
eight weeks old. Leave them on
a green pasture and hand feed
them a large ear oi corn per
head dally, keep the mineral
mixture before them in a dry
place. Hand feed a small amount
of protein supplement each day
until the pigs weigh about 75
pounds. This supplement can
be made by mlxliig together any
two of the following materials:
Flshmoal, tankage, cottonseed

Buy Hybrid Seed
Corn On Records
Farmers should be very care
ful in their purchase of hybrid
seed corn and buy only on per-
fonnance records made under
North Carolina conditions, said
research men of the State Col
lege Experiment Station ond di
rectors of the N. C. Crop Im
provement Association at a re
cent meeting at Raleigh.
They pointed out that some
hybrids which did well in the
Mountain and Piedmont sections
were wholly unsulted for pro
duction in the Coastal Plain,
areas. On the other hand, a cer
tain hybrid gave good yields in
the Coastal Plain and was rela-
tltvely resistant to weevil dam
age a nd lodging, or wind dam
age, but was not suited to pro-
ductoln In other areas.
Experiment Station teets show
ed that 'the yields of some hy
brids were no better, or even
less, than the yields of some of
the standard varieties of corn
already being grown. In other
cases, certain hybrids gave out
standing yields which were con
siderably above the best yields
of the purebred varieties now be
ing grown. I
Hybrid corns do not carry
names such as “Jarvis” but are
specified by numbers such as U.
S, 282 or N. C. 1032A "W ” foiiow-

Guidance Program
Is Studied Here
Miss Ella Stephens Barrett, di
rector of vocational guidance ol
the state department of educa
tion, is spending one day this
week In each of the four high
schools In Davie county organiz
ing the guidance program.
The state department has se
lected Davie county in demon
strating a program of guidance
which may be used in other
counties of the state.
Preliminary worK had been
done for three years In the study
of guidance under the direction
of the county superintendent, R.
S. Proctor, and this work has
been used as a basis for organiz
ing on a county-wide basis.
Preliminary plans were made
by Miss Barrett and Dr. Childs
of Duke university at a meeting
on January 14. At this meettag
the general program to be fol
lowed v/as outlined and by the
end o£ the, school year It Is hoped
to have a fine program func
tioning which will enable edu
cational guidance to be put In
the elementary grades of the
Davie schools.
In these uncertain days If you
do not know what, to count on

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE

Pfc, Thomas J. RaddUtfton
of Milton, Mass,, and Pfo. John
J. Paston of Itcpubllc, Fa.,
have iiiitrked (lie itrave of their
buddy, killed in action at “Sui
cide Point,“ Rendeva Island,
with his Steel helmet, rocks
and a ci'OKs made of shell
cases. Tlielr fallen comrade,
witii whom they journeyed
thousands of miles into the
.Southwest Pacific, gave his life
flghting that liberty might be
preserved in the country he
called home.
CONSERVE U N D BY USE OF TERRACES ARE ANSWERED
Farmers in Davie county are
more than ever aware of the
need of conserving their land
by means of terraces, but they
have less time and less labor to
use on the Job than ever before,
says County Agent L. B. Barbte.
He suggests, however, that it is
still possible to do what should
have been done at flrst, that is
to prepare outlets and establish
vegetation In them before build
ing the terraces.
The major depressions, such as
the draws and gullies in the
fields are the primary run-ofl
pattern, and so are the logical
points to protect and make use
of as outlets. By doing so, the
farmer Is accepting the natural
plan and laying a good founda
tion with a, minimum outlay of
money and 1а1юг.
Mr. Barbee says that proper
preparation and seeding of these
depressions will give a good
meadow strip. To prepare the
gullies, plqw, cut with a bush
and bog, or. If the soil Is light,
with a disc. As far as is practi
cal, high places should be cut
down and low ones filled. Some
drag pan work may be necessary
for this. Prepare and seed all
the larger gullies and draws. The
ones that will not be used as
outlets later, will be catching up
and yielding some return at the
same time. In addition to these
advantages, with the gullies and
draws vegetated, we have a good
water disposal plan that will go
a long way toward checking soil
loss until we can complete the
Jab. '
Mr. Barbee says that meadow
strips should be seeded any time
from the first of February to the
middle of March. A good mix
ture for both the Piedmont and
Coastal Plains is; Two bushels of
oats, 40 pounds of Kobe lespc-
deza (or a mixture of equal
amount of Kobe and Korean),
10 pounds of sericea, 5 pounds
of redtop and 5 pounds of orch
ard grass, per acre.
The sericea may be omitted
if an additional 5 pounds of red-
top and 5 pounds of orchard
grass are used. The mixture
should be fertilized with ap
proximately 2,000 pounds of
limestone and 400 pounds of
2-12-e fertilizer per acre. In ad
dition, if practical, a heavy ap
plication of manure idiould be
used on the area, Mr. Barbee
concludes.

State College Hints For
Farm Homemakers
By RUTH CURRENT
(N. C. state College)
One of the resolutions that
American housewives may well
make this new year Is to put up
food only by scientifically ap
proved canning meithods. Can
ning specialists say that for
safety from spoilage, all such
non-acid foods as meats and most
vegetables, except tomatoes, must
be canned under pressure. Now
that pressure cookers are no
longer rationed, no one should
be tmpted to take a chance bn
putting up foods by risky meth
ods of canning.
Greasing the surface of a ham
with lard or oU will help pre
vent mold on the meat. OU or
lard Is especially useful for key
ing mold from the cut surfaces
of hams that have been sliced
and then stored in the refrigera
tor or pantry.
Is there any good way to keep
dry bread crumbs so they remain
dry but don’it get moldy or ran

week visiting his parents, Mr.
and Mrs. R. S. Miller, at their

He will now be stationed In
Massaehusetts.
Q, Does It pay to fertilize
sericea lespedeza?
A. Tests on a Cecil loam soil
at the Piedmont Branch station
at Statesville have shown an
average yield of 1,56 tons of hay
without fertilizer and 2.04 tons
with 50 pounds of superphos
phate per acre, Where two tons
of lime per acre were applied
previous to seeding, the yield
was 1.90 tons and v/ith both
Ume and superphosphate 2.33
tons per acre.
Q. Why are so many fanners
getting all excited about lespe
deza and what is the best va
riety for me to grow?
A. It is a most excellent hay
and grazing crop, say State
college agronomists. They also
point out that It is a fine soU
improving crop and helps to
prevent erosion. Thirty years
ago it was practically unknown
in North Carolina, except as a

Q. Does It pay to fertilize
scrlcea lespedeza?
A, Tests on a Cecil loam soil
at the Piedmont Branch station
at Statesville have shown an
average yield of 1.56 tons of hay
without fertilizer and 2.04 tons
with 50 pounds of superphos
phate per acre. Where two tons
of lime per acre were applied
previous to seeding, the yield
was 1,90 tons and with both
lime and superphosphate 2,33
tons per acre.
Q. Why are so many farmers
getting all excited about lespe-
deza and what is the best va
riety for me to grow?
A. It is a most excellent hay
and grazing crop, say State
college agronomists. They also
point out that it is a fine soil
improving crop and helps to
prevent eroston. IVilrty years
ago it was practically unknown
in North Carolina, except as a
you store them. Dry bread
crumbs keep best if air reaches
them, so Instead of putting them
In a tight container like crackers,
punch holes In the coVer of the
Jar or tie a piece of cheesecloth
over the top. They keep best
stored In this way but, even so,
will not keep indefinitely

NEWS OF FARM
CONSERVATION
By G. W . McCLELLAN
More and more Davie county
farmers are beginning to real
ize the value of conserving their
soils with practices recommend
ed by the Middle Yadkin Soil
Conservation district, represent
ed in this county by J. O. Craw
ford. Mr. Crawford has been
following good rations, building
terraces, liming and other good
practices for years. He takes
pride in using good varieties of
seed t^o. Last year he made
around one and one-half bales
of cotton per acre with a new
strain of Coker’s seed. Of course,
his treatment of the soil for
years had lots to do with the
yield.
"Bill” Powell, near Calahaln,
has some of tho best terraces
seen In tho county. Mr. Powell
built them with a small tractor
and a disk tiller last fall. He
had the district to lay him out
2,000 more feet of lines recently.
Mr. Powell values his wood
thinning work he did a couple
of years ago very highly since
his trees have grown faster after
he did this work.
Paul Blackwelder has recent
ly thinned about two and a half
acres of pines. He says he got
considerable wood from this
practice.
Saturday School
Classes Ahead
Beginning February 19 arid
continuing every other Saturday
until five days are made up, the
Davie county schools will hold
classes on those Saturdays, It Is
announcsed by R. S. Proctor,
county superintendent. The days
were lost on account of the re
cent flu In the 'county.
The action was taken at a
moating last Saturday of the
board ot education and the prin
cipals. .
If a price level is ever estab
lished It will be on a plateau.
WILL BE HERE SATURDAY
Above Is the 30-piece Camp
Mackall band which will ap-
pear here Saturday at the
bond rally. Sitting In the s«c-
OBd raw, fourth from th.e rlgbt,
is a Mocksville boy, who Is a
member of the band. Sam
Howard.
Indicating that the Amerlcui forces have learned a
great deal, the navy announceü that the Japanese lost 8Д23
men killed in the Kwajaleln campaign agabist 286 Ameri
can known dead. The Japs had 264 captured and the
Americans had 82 missing and 1,148 wounded. In the Oil-
berts operation we lost at Tarawa alone 1,052 killed and
2,880 wounded.
Admiral Niniitz said the final figures on Kwajaleln would
not vary much from the present figures since most of the
islands are now in our possession,
PARAMUSHIRU RAIDED
It-was also announced that an American task force
raided Paramushiru on the Kurile islands last Friday. The
raiders penetrated to within five miles of the island, blast
ing the east and south coast. Paramushiru is only
1,200 airline miles from Tokyo, 770 miles from Attu.
TOUGH GOING IN ITALY
Bad weather has prevented the Allied forces from
exploiting their beachhead near Rome. Heavy seas have
prevented the landing of supplies and reinforcements auid
has made irieffectual our air superiority. The Nazis have
had time to bring up reinforcements and heavy and hard
fighting is apparently ahead of our men. Grim house-to-
house fighting is still in progress at Cassiho.
REDS CONTINIJE TO ADVANCE
Moscow says that 15 German divisions have been
trapped by the Red armies in the Dneiper bend. The Red
army is now in the suburbs of Nikopol, a center rich in
manganese.
NEW TAX BILL
Congress has passed and sent to the president a $2,-
315,200,000 tax bill, one-fifth of the amount the president
said was needed. Some think the president will show his
disapproval by allowing the bill to Ijecome law without his
signature,
FOOD COSTS UP 37 PER CENT
The agriculture department said retail food costs last
month were 37 per cent above the pre-war average. The
high was last May, 43 per cent. The National Livestock
Producers association said there would be a beef and pork
famine in this country In 60 to 90 days, due to a culmina
tion of ill-advised governmental price control regulations.
RECORD EGG CROP EXPECTED
Three out of every four eggs to be produced in 1944
have been allocated to civilians, the War Food Administra
tion announced. An anticipated supply of eggs this year,
possibly exceeding 61 billion, is based on the potential
production of the greatest’ numljer oi laying hens on rec
ord in the United States.
AUTOS, BICYCLES, TIRES, GASOLINE
February quota of new passenger automobiles is 10,000,
two-thirds of the January quota, and of new bicycles is
7,500, one-half the January quota, the Office of Price Ad
ministration has announced. Except for a decrease of ap
proximately one-fourth in the number of used and re
claimed (Grade III) passenger tires, February quotas for
tires and tubes are about the same, as for January. Essen
tial truck operators in areas where tire recapping facilities
are. inadequate or unavailable may obtain a ration certifi
cate permitting them to exchange with dealers a tire which
needs recapping for a used tire or a new "war” tire. Auto
mobile drivers hereafter will find that the purpose for
which they drive, rather than the distance they drive,
will determine their eligibility for tires. Motorists may now
use indelible pencils as well as* ink to write their license
numljers and state of registration on each gasoline coupon.
Motorists must now present their th% inspection records
when applying for special gasoline rations.

FARM QUESTIONS
ARE ANSWERED
Q. Where can I get seed of
the new Sequoia Irish’ potato?
A. Write to Dr. Landis Ben
nett, secretary of the North
Carolina Crop Improvement As
sociation, who can tel! you which
growers have the certified seed
ail produced last season, The new
variety is" proving to be very
profitable throughout the state
and Is worth a' trial. Dr. Ben
nett. may be reached at State
College Station, Raleigh.
Q. Does it pay to fertilize
pastures?
A. Tests made by the North
Carolina experiment station
show that applications of ground
limestone and phosphate will
cause pastures to provide a
longer grazing period for the
cows and will increase the con
tent of vitamin A and calcium
In the grazing crops. This Is
noticeable even in a dry year.
Q. Which lespedezas are best
suited for growing in this state?
A. Of the ordinary kinds, the
agricultural experiment station
at State college has found that
Wobe and Korean give best re-/
turns and yield about the same
per acre. Common and Tennes
see 76 made much less growth.

State College Hints For
Farm Homemakers
By RUTH CURRENT
(N. C. state CoUege-
‘ A good farmer must know
iiiore than a doctor, a lawyer, a
mochanlc, or an Industrialist.
He must know soils, be a veteri
narian, an agronomist, a botan
ist, a chemist, a mechanic, a
toreiiter, a biologist and a hor
ticulturist,” says Louis Broom-
Qelci—a farmer.
It's garden planting time.
Plan your garden so you will
have a continuous supply of a
few vegetables all through the
i;rowlng season. The green leafy
vegetables are especially impor
tant, and It’s wise to have one
or another of them froin earliest
spring up until freezing time.
Dr. Hazel Stlehellng, assistant
3hic£ of the bureau of human
nutrition and home economics,
says that as a nation we need to
double our supplies of green and
yellow vegetables.
High on the list for food val-
ue.? are, tomatoes, cabbage, kale,
chard, and beet greens. All these
are easy to grow. Other food
vegetables for nutrition are
limas, snap beans, carrots, green
Icttuce, spinach and turnips.
Tlie old Negro cook would al
ways, Just before taking a pie
out of the oven, sprinkle a little
sugar on the plate she was going
to put the pie on.' It was placed
on the oven rack until thor
oughly hot. The pie and plate
cooled together, thus avoiding
sweating of the pie and a soggy
bottom.
Whole wheat is a good food.
For good nutrition, each person
requires one or more servings of
a whole grain cereal each day.
Whole wheat provides energy for
the body. It contains some pro
tein for body building and re

FBIDAY, FEBRUARY 11,19l4 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPRISE PAGE a
WINS CANNING
Mrs. Grant Daniel of MockS'
vllle Is Nhown beside the pan
try where most of her 500
quarts of home canning was
stored. The excellence of the
preparation and the quantity
canned won for her first prize
in a Mocksvilie canning con
test recently completed.
The Judges of Mocksville’s
city-wide canning contest re
cently deicided that the flrst
prize—a war bond—should be
awarded to Mrs. Grant Daniel
for her unusually flne job of
saving summer harvests for
winter tables.
lliere were more than 600
quarts In the Daniel pantry be
fore Mrs. Daniel put away her
preMure cooker and called the
Joto well done. Of course there
aren’t that many now, for the
Daniels have had to do little
grocery buying this winter, but
there are still hundreds of
quarts and more than 35 va
rieties of canned goods on those
shelves.
Most of the canning was done
with a pressure cooker except
the fruits, which were canned
by the elwtric oven method.
Most amazing thing of all Is
that not a single can has spoil
ed. The visitor who steps Into
this well-stockcd pantry^ is
, amazecl at the beauty of the
glass jars that line the shelves.
Every jar is perfect, the fruits
or vegetables it contains ar
ranged in even rows, the color
and shape as good as when the
contents was first taken from
the garden.
There are row on row of al
most every imaginable North
Carolina crop. Among the vege
tables are the snap beans, toma-
tbe«, field peas, carrots, corn,
broccoli, asparagus, squash,
green peas, turnip salad, lima
'beans, pumpkin, corn on the
cob and beets. Over on the fruit
shelves are blackberries, peaches,
strawberries, apples, and apple
sauce. Among the pickles and
relishes are pepper relish, mus
tard and din pickles, sour
pickles and bread and butters.
. There are a good variety of
meats including sausage, back
bone, sparerlb.'i, pork chops and
chicken, There are soup mix
tures, plmentoes and mince
meat.
One of the most unusOal
things that Mrs. Daniel canned
was peanuts, which were parch
ed and flavored exactly right so
that they are fresh and crisp
when the jar seal is broken.
Most of the things Mrs. Daniel
canned came from her own gar
den, which she tended in her
backyard. “There isn’t much
spacei” she laughed, "some peo
ple think 1 plant too close to
gether, but I use lots of fer
tilizer and things seems to grow
well.”
Asked for advice to less ex
perienced canners, Mrs. Daniel
warned them to be careful about
sterilization and to use vege
tables as fresh as possible, dis
carding any bruised or spoiled
products.
"I always try to make the
time between the vine and the
can as short as possible,” she
said.

Chatham for Secretary of Navy
A short time ago our esteemed contemporary, the EU
kin Tribune, came out with the suggestion that one of its
“home town boys,” Thurmond Chatham, head of Chathaiji
Manufacturing CompMHy; be the next Secretary ot the
Navy. That he is un(}|^Uo|piably able, both as an execu
tive and as a practical navy man, is well known.
We would like to endorse Mr. Chatham for. another
reason which seems to us of equal, if not surpassing, im<
portance.
After the war is over this country is going to need
comparatively young men of ability and Integrity in high
places in government. We do npt think bright young men,
particularly from law schools with little experience of prac
tical affairs, are the ones to do the job ably for the best
common good. We do think, on the other hand, that bus!
ness men who have a talent for public service, are economi*
cally independent, beholden only to a good conscience of
what is best for the continued growth and oppor
tunity of the average citizen of the world’s greatest de
mocracy, trained to understand there are inescapable eco
nomic laws as wel las moral and spiritual ones, physical
and mental vigor to pursue their objectives—men such as
these'we think can And no greater field than government
lor honor and personal Inner satisfaction.
We do not know whether or not Mr. Chatham is inter
ested In the task proposed for him by The Tribune—but we
do know it is healthy sign for the future of this country
when a man of means and business success views govern
ment as an attractive field In which to labor. We have had
too little of it in the past—and by the same token too many
who held posts because of political afliliation and attempt
ed to hold on to them till death do them part, Irrespective
of their qualifications.

Mrs. Daniel’s Cannmg
Elsewhere In the paper this week you will see a story
about Mrs. Grant Daniel and her canning last year. As
you read the article you will no doubt be surprised to learn
of the many different things she canned—all of the vege
tables mentioned having been grown in her Victory garden.
Her garden spot is not a large one, either. She learned
the art of intensive cultivation, as well as that of how to
get the product in a jar quickly and in the way so that It
would not spoil. She also applied a sometimes-neglected
canning art; packing the product in the jar so that it
would look attractive.
In taking such pains to do an excellent job. It is fitting
that she should have won the first prize and we extend our
congratulations.
FARM OUESTIONS
ARE ANSWERED
Q. What infomatlon do you
have on wide and narrow rows
for planting tobacco?
A. “The best distance that we
bave found for yield and quality
of tobacco Is to plant the crop
In lour foot rows, with plants
22 inches apart In the drill," says
E. O. Moss, assistant director of
the North Carolina tobacco ex
pcrlment station at Oxford. "We
have tried out different wide
aind narrow row methods and
our difference In favor of this
method was not as great as has
been found by others.”
Q. Can I apply too much
lime to my soil?
A. Yes, say agronomists of
the State college extension serv
ice, Injury to plants sometimes
occurs from excess applications
of lime or failure to clean up
There lime has been plied In
the field. They report, however,
that the overllmlng Injury Is
frequently over-emphaslied and
many fields go unllmed because
of ,fear of applying too much.

iprowih of lecrumes on many

I Une both for crops and for pas
tures The North CaroUnk de
partment of agriculture main
tains a free soli testing service.
Instructions for talcing soil
samples may be obtained from
your county agent, agricultural
teachers, and various other farm
agencies In your section.
Q, Does milk exposed to sun
light lose any food value?
A. Yes, say research men of
the North Carolina experiment
station. When milk was exposed
to direct sunlight, It lost almost
half of its riboflavin in an hour,
and three-fourth in three hours.
These tests show that milk
should be put in a cool, dark
place as soon as it is delivered.
Milk and meat are depended on
by many to furnish them with
a large part of their riboflavin.
This Important vitamin is also
found in green, leafy vegetables,
whole cereal grains, liver, eggs
and yeast'.

Seed Treatment
Increases Peanuts
Seed decay In peanuts can be
reduced by treating the seed be
fore planting, says Howard R.
Oarrls, ¿xtension plant path
ologist at State college.
“North Carolina peanut grow
ers who treated their seed In
1943 had an average of 27 per
cent Increase in stands. Dust
ing the peanut foliage wllf con
trol leafspot, a disease which
annually causes a reduction In
yield as great as 200 to 500
pounds of peanuts and 400 to
800 pounds of hay per acre,'
Oarrls said.
Arasan Is the most desirable
material for treating the seed,
but if this Is not available, use
a 2 per cent ceresan or Yellow
Cuprocide. It will require two to
three ounces of Arasan to treat
ICO pounds of seed. This should
not cost over 25 cents.
Copper-sulphate,dust mixtures
give better leafapot control and
higher yields than either copper
or the sulphur dust alone. The
cost of dusting an acre will vary
from $2.50 to $4 per acre, de
pending upon the cost of the
material and the number of ap
plications necessary to control
the disease.
Peanut growers who wish more
detailed information on peanut
seed treatment and dusting
should write to the Agricultural
Editor at State college for a
copy of the heiw War Serleo Bul
letin No. 31 which has Just been
published. This bulletin gives in
simple terms definite recom
mendations for the control

FALL PLOWING
Lincoln county farmers are
out ahead of the season by do
ing much fall plowing with trac
tors. The only thing hindering
more tractor work is a lack of
plows available for use with the

PULPWOOD
Rutherford county doubled its
pulpwood production last year,
shipping e,861 cords, reports
County Agent F. E. Patton.
Oreatly increased quantities are
needed for war purposes.
POOLING ORDERS

ers have learned that It pays to

Pat was a simple country
yokel who had . never strayed
from the outskirts of his native
vyiage, and because he stood In
a railway station for the first
time of his' life, his amazement
was great.
The vastness of his surround
ings completely dazzled him
but when the 3:30 express dash
ed through the station, that did
it. He kept his eyes gluod on
the tunnel through which it
had disappeared, staring after It
as though some kind of miracle
had happened. He remained like
this for several minutes, much
to the amusement of the on
lookers, until at ifngth an In
quisitive porter asked him what
he was staring at.
“Ql was Just thlnkin’,” he
said, pulling himself together,
“what a terrible smash there’d
‘a’ bln If he’d ‘a’ missed the
hole!”
The sweet young thing was
being shown through the boiler
shop.
“What’s that thing?” she ask
ed, pointing with a dainty para
sol.
“That’s an engine boiler,” said'
the guide.
"And why do they boil en
gines?” she inquired.
To make the engine tender,"
replied the resourceful guide.
“Ever get any nice butter?”
queried old Grumpy.
“Supply In every day,” replied
his provision merchant suavely.
‘Then why in thunder don’t

cheese have been allocated to .17. S. servicemen than t t ^
used last year, an Increase necessary mainly to provUks
milk nutrients for the larger number of soldiers overseas.
FARM MACHINERY PRODUCilON
Farm machinery production for the year beginning'
July 1, will be about, the same as for the current year,
but the War Production Board warns that the recent
schedules issuml may be altered any . time should circum
stances demand such action. More than one million tons
of carbon steel production is now tentatively eannuked V
for the/American fanner.
ROUND-UP
WFA says dairy payments at present rates will be con
tinued up to February 17, and beyond ttiat they will de
pend upon congressional action . . Cider vinegar will cost
approximately three cents a quart more at retail—« 20 ‘
per ,cent ,.incsea8e> • under « new regnlation to eom-^^
pensate processors imd packers for increased raw material
costs... Local rationing boards may now^issue an interim
coupon sheet enabling a consumer to buy fuel oil while
OPA Investigates the loss or theft of his ration sheet...
Retail prices increases per pound of three cein^ for sea
Scallops, five cents for lemon [sole rounfl, and 16 cents
for lemon sole fillet are expected as a result of wholesale
price increases allowed by OPA . . . Manufacture of 400,> ^
ООО aluminum pressure canners, one size holding one-
quart glass jars, and another size holding 14 on^uart
Jars, has been authorized by WPB, provided there is no
interference with munition manufacture . . . To Increase
horse collar production, W PB has issued special instruc
tions to manufacturers to bring about the increases. . . .
Civilians will get slightly more edible fats and о1Ц products
per person in 1944 than they had on the average in
1035-30, according to WFA. They will get slightly less of
butter, however . . . OPA predicts a larger supply of lower-
priced rayon knit garments and lower prices of better
quality for such garments . . . Rather than make loans for
purchase of farm land at Inflated prices. Farm Security
Administration county committees have been instructed
by FSA to turn back their money. The action was taken
to insure that the program will protect appllcaints from
acquiring land debts that would ruin them later on . . .
Maximum prices for producers’ sales of the 1944 broom-
corn crop will be the same as for tl^é 1043 crop, $300 a'
ton for “shed-cured” broomcorn and $250 for all other
broomcom.

planting program in the nation’s
history—the planting of 380,-
000,000 acres, an Increase of 16,-
000,000 acres over 1843.
“This vast production pro
gram will require the efllclent
utilization of machinery in
planting, cultivating, and har
vesting the farm products need
ed," says J. Dl Bllckle, extension
agricultural engineer at State
college.
Although more new machin
ery will be made In 1M4 than
in 1943, it may not be available
in large quantities when it is
needed. Also, the quantity of
new machinery probably will not
be sufficient to meet the in
creased crop acreage and for re
placement of worn equipment.
This means that it is highly es
sential to have every usable ma
chine now on the farms properly
repaired and maintained for use
in 1044.
"The machinery needs Include
Inspection, checking, ordering
parts early, repairing, serving,
and maintenance. The ma
chines, both new and old, must
be used efficiently. Efficient use
may make it necessary to in
clude in the program some.plan
of sharing so that each essential
machine will produce to Its
maximum capacity,” Bllckle
points out.
Safety in operation is also
needed to protect the machin
ery from damage, to protect
crops from destruction, and to
protect the operator from In
jury. This requires experienced
operators, or the training of new
operators to use the machines
skillfully.
From all Indlcatloas there Is
an Increased need this year for
a vigorous and «ffeetlv« maeblh-
ery: re^ir.a^dmalntraancei pro
gram, due to the Uwk ot normal
replacement of msohlnery dur
and March 15 for best yields, re
ports W. H. Rankin, agrnomist
of the agricultural experiment
station at State college.
"Tests have repeatedly shown
that late applications of top-
dressing after April 1 result In
lower yields than If the same
applications had been earlier,”
says Rankin. "Last year early
topdresslngs with 16 pounds of
nitrogen per acre gave an extra
eight bushels of wheat, for ex
ample, while late topdresslngs
gave only three bushels."
There should be ample nitro
gen materials for topdressing
small grains this year, accord
ing to the agronomist. Nitrates
of soda, calnitro, and ammon
ium nitrate will be available In
most areas and one may be sub
stituted for another. To give 16
pounds of nitrogen, 100 pounds
of nitrate of soda, 80 pounds of
calnitro, or 50 pounds of am
monium nitrate can be used.
As to amounts of nitrogen per
acre, Rankin recommends 16 to
32 pounds. He also recommends
extra potash along with the ni
trogen where heavy crops of
legume hay have been removed.
He reports that the condition
of small grains Is spotted and
that where stands are poor, the
crop can be reseeded by running
the drill across the rows. In such
cases the crop will have to be
used for hay rather than for
grain. '
Where there is a complete loss
of stand and extra feed supplì^
are sorely needed, he recom
mends three bushels of Fulgraln
or Fulghum oats per àcre, put in
with a drill, and 300 pounds of
fertilizer per acre where no ter- >
tilizer was used In the fall.
Ing the past two years, the

A little kneading usually pio-
duces better biscuits than too
much or none at all. In blscnit- .
mixing tests home ecoAomlsts
used the standard recipe: Three
cups sifted flour; 4 teaspoo»
bakhig powder; 1 teaspoon salt;
4 tablespoons fat; 1 cup of mitt.
The ingredients were stirred ti»-
gether in the bowl until Just
moistened, then turned out on
the board. The flrst batch of
dough was not kneaded at all
but quickly rolled out, cut and
baked. The biscuits came out
flat, crusty, only fairly light.
The second batch was given
long, strenuous kneading. The
biscuits were tough, flat and
close-grained. In the-third test
the dough received only 18
strokes,of kneading. The result
was light, flaky ,tender, tall bis
cuits.

Good Seed Stock
For Yams Needed
Sweet potato growers from 12
counties in eastern Carolina de
clared at a recent meeting with
representatives of the extension
service, the state department of
agriculture, and the agricultural
experiment station that prac
tices for growing the crop should
be improved.
They recommended better
sources of selected seed; also
seed and plant treatment. They
emphasized proper fertilizers,
the right type of soil, and proper
spacing of the plants In the row.
They called special attention to
protecting the crop from dis
eases in the fleld and in the
curing barn. They especially
stressed better grading and
packing, pointing out that it was
most important to give the con
suming public Just what it
wants.
B. B. Holder of Lilllngton,
Route 2, at a recent meeting of
farmers and county agents, ex
plained that good seed stock was
of prime importance In success
fully growing sweet potatoes,' ac
cording to J. Y. Lassiter, exten
sion horticulturist at State col
lege.
“Seven years ago J. B. Gour-
ley, then an assistant county
agent but now n^arketing spe
cialist of the state department
of agriculture, suggested that 1
feed my potatoes to the hogs and

them to the hogs and bedded
the other half. Three years
later I waked up to the fact that
Oourley was right and bought
some good seed stock,” Holder
said.
“Since that time I have been
selling about $1,000 worth of
plants each year to neighbors.
I handle my sweet potatoes Just
like they were eggs and it pays.
Last year I set 3.1 acres on June
20 and produced 083 bushels of

Extra Com Yields
By Better Methods
An extra 300,000 bushels of
corn can be easily and cheaply
produced In North Carolina this
year through improved farm
practices, said tamers in a re
cent series of fleld meetings held
In cooperation with the State
collego extension service.
They suggested well prepared
seed beds in advance of plant
ing, as a means of reducing
later cultivation and saving on
labor. They eihphasized the use
of the best local variety for seed
and the planting of the crop as
ea;;ly as possible.
The use of about ‘dOO pounds
of good fertilizer per acre at
planting was recommended for
most lands because the fertilizer
would give quick growth to the
crop and enable growers to work
out their com without interfer
Ing with other farm operations.
About one-third of the entire
acreage in cultivation in North
Carolina is in corn and anything
that can be done to save labor
on the crop is of great Impor
tance. Average com yields run
about 20 bushels per acre and
when all expense Is counted, the
cost of producing a bushel of
corn reaches a relatively high
figure.
The growers pointed out that
the suggested improvements in
farm practices would add little
to the cost of producing the crop
and when the better yields were
considered, the average cost of
producing a bushel of corn would
be lower.
Increased amounts, of nitrogen
are available for 1944 and grow
ers will have a better opportu
nity of increasing yields through
topdresslng. “Increased retums
from fertilizer can be expected
when the crop is planted on time
in a well prepared seed bed,”
was the thought at the farm
meetings.
Potato Growers
Face Competition
There is a possibility that the
early potato producing .states
will give North Carolina Irish
potato growers keen competition
this year, says H. L. Meachem,
extension marketing specialist
at State college. '
He points out that California
and the Gulf states, who ship
at about the same time as Caro
lina growers ,are planntog to in
crease their acreage from 25 to
35 per cent.
Another point which potato
growers must take into coneid-
eration is that the old crop of
about 400 million biishels, pro
duced in 37 states, is only about
one-half consumed.
“It is extremely doubtful If
transportation can be provided
or the markets absotb such
heavy shipments as to move the
old crop to market ahead of the
1944 potato season. This means
that we also have the possibil
ity of the old crop seriously in
terfering with this year’s спч>,”
Meacham says.

“Don’t Put This
In the Paper”
"Don’t put this In the paper,
for nobody will believe It.” Hilfl
remark was made by Mack Ruf
fin to County Agent Joe Powell
of Edgecombe county one day
last fall, says E. C, Blair, exten
sion agronomist at State col
lege. The occasion was the
harvest of their winter. legume
demonstrations'
"It is almost unbellevalble that
a crop of Austrian winter peas
can boost the yield of corn from
almost nothing to 35 bushels per
acre, yet suoh was the case,”
Blair reports.
On October 1, 1942, Mack Ruf
fin and Joe Powell sowed Aus
trian winter peas on half of a
small fleld, leaving the other
half bare. By May 1, 1943, the
peas had made a good thick
growth, almost knee high.
They were turned under at
that time, and In a few days,
corn was planted on the whole
field. The com all had the
same kind and amount of fer
tilizer, and all was treated alike
except for the turning under ot
the winter peas.
But, the peas had gathered
enough nitrogen to teed the corn
well. The organic matter they
furnished the soil held enough
water to tide the crop over the
dry spell ot last July and Au
gust, ’The result was 35 bushels
ot corn per acre. On the other
hand, the soil without Austrian
winter peas was so low In nitro
gen and in water holding capac
ity that the com yield was low,
only 7 and a half bushels per
acre.
"Although stich an outcome
was new to Mack Ruffin, it is
quite a common experience all
over North Carolina,” Blair says!

Reducé Egg Lon
By Proper Feeding
Aiilarge percentage of the egg
losses due to cracking, 'and
breaking can ‘be eliminated by
proper feeding, suggests 0. F.
Parrish, extension poultryman
at State college.
About 5 per c.ent of all eggs
produced are lost between the
nest and the table, and most of
this loss can be eliminated by
feeding the flock a sufficient
amount of vitamin D to enable
them to utilize to full advantage
the calcium In the oyster shell
or ground limestone.
"We ai;e approaching the sea
son of flush egg production,”
Parrish says, “and poultrymen
should make every effort pos
sible to reduce this loss between
the nest and the table."
' Oyster shell 'or ground lime
stone, which should be before
the flock at all times. Is not
enough In Itself to eliminate
thin-shelled eggs. There are
several carriers of vitamin D
such as feeding oil and. If the
flock is producing many soft or
thhi-shelled eggs, it la advisable
to mix this feeding oil or other
sources of vitamin D with the
Seed Shape and Siw
Affect Potato Yield
The size of the Irish potato
seed piece haa a definite hi-
fluence on the reaultlng yield of
the crops, says 3. Y. Lassiter, ex
tension horticulturist at State
college.
Research lias shown that the
potato should be cut so that the
seed pieces will be of uniform
size, averaging from one and a
half to two ounces each. This
Is particularly important if the
grain every day. Sources hav
ing a ixitency of 400 units of vit
amin D per gram should be used
at the rate of one-half pound-to
each 100 pounds of grain. This
can be easily mixed when using
two ounces of oil to each 25
pounds of grain.
Be sure to determine the po
tency of the vitamin D carrier
before using, Parrish warns. The
strength of the oil will be Indi
cated on the container.
Every poultryman should
watch his flock carefully at this
time of year and be sure they
have sufficient-calcluni available
and enough vitamin D to be able
to utilize this calcium to full ad
vantage.

ehanlcal planters. Seed pieces
of various sizes and shapes will
not feed properly and will cause
poor stands. Small, thin seed
pieces dry out rapidly and do not
produce strong plants. The seed
piece should be blocky and have
as much skin as possible to pre
vent evaporation, Laeslter says.
(Mechanical cutters have been
used to some extent by North
Carolina growens, but due to the
abundance of labor in the past
most of the cutting has been
done by hand. Now that farm
labor is extremely scarce grow
ers are now looking for a ma-
chanicitl cutter that will do' a
job. Such a cutter is shown on
a leaflet which has recently been
prepared by the extension serv
ice at State college, and a copy
will be mailed to anyone Inter-
eclted in securing a simple me
chanical potato seed cutter. In

RERUN GETS IT
Each week The Enterprise summarises the war '
news, both abroad and at home, so that readers may
get a quick, bird’s eye view of Important happenings.
It now appears that the “tense” situation of Allied
forces at the Anzio beachhead near Rome has been relieved.
Rain has Impeded the use of tanks by both sides and Brit
ish Wellington night bombers have joined the fray.
At Cassino the advance is still at a snail’s pace, thé
American troops gaining 200 yards in bloody fighting In
the streets—one of the greatest gains in the fighting lately.
Berlin got its heaviest plastering of the war Tuesday
night when 1,000 RAF and Canadian bombers dropped
2,800 tons of bombs on the capital in 20 minutes. There
were 45 bombers lost.
RUSSIANS ADVANCE
The Red army has captured Korsun, core, of resistance
In the Ukraine for the remnants of ten trapped Oerman
divisions of perhaps 100,000 men who have fought with the
ferocity of woimded beasts for 11 days.
AIR BOMBARDMENT IN WEST
Nazi "mystery” installations in northern France are
being bombed almost daily by American forces, in prepa
ration, it is thought for the invasion ahead., At the same
time,industrial targets, such as Frankfurt and Berlin, con
tinue to get attention from the RAF and U. S. bombers.
FINLAND MAY QUIT
Reports continue that Finland is seeking to get out
of the war with a negotiated peace. Most observers, how
ever, think that Russia will not listen to anjrthing except
unconditional surrender.
WILLKIE, BRICKER IN RACE
Both Governor Bricker of Ohio and Wendell Willkie
are now definitely in the race for the Republican nomi
nation for president.
REVENUE, SUBSIDY BILLS
It is thought that President Roosevelt will sign the
new tax bill, although it is only a fifth of the amoimt he
and the treasury said was needed. When the anti-subsidy
bill reaches the president’s desk, however, he is expected
to veto the measure. The house apparently has enough
votes to pass the bill over his veto but the senate has not.

Early Planting
Saves On Labor
"Time" is one of the most Im
portant elements in the farm
production schedule and It.doea-
not cost anything.
Extension farm management
specialists at State College sug
gest that with corn, for example,
the early breaking of land, the
application of 300 pounds of fer
tilizer per aci'e ahead of plant
ing, and the preparation of a
good seed bod, so as to get the
crop in the ground at the right
time in early spring will not only
result in larger yields but will
help to save on labor.
Corn planted in good, well pre
pared seed beds has less chance
of getting “ In the Grass,” Three
hundred pounds of high analysis
fertilizer per acre at planting
quickly "kicks the crop to knee
high” so that It can be worked
3ut without interfering with'the
sash crops, when they must be
given first consideration. Under
average conditions, early planted
corn has a better opportunity
of making a good crop than that
planted later.
The farm management spec
ialists also suggest slight Shifts
in crop a;creages, which will add
to the labor requirements in
the off months and lessen the
needed labor at peak periods.
Sowing lespedeza In small grains
no’.v rather than a crop of cow-
peas or soybeans this summer,
may be a step in thé right dir
ection for some growers.
Another grower may decide to
put in a few acres of sweet po
tatoes for the market and for
hog feed.
"There, are many opportuni
ties for increasing production
through doing more farm Jobs 'on
time' and changes can be made
that will result in the saving
of considerable labor,” the Ex
tension specialists point out.

Colored School
Principal Dies
George V. McCallum, well
fcnov/n local colored school prin
cipal, died Sunday at the Rowan
Memorial hospital where he had
been a jiatlent for the past week.
Funeral services were held
Wednesday morning at the Sec
ond Presbyterian church with
the Rev. R. A. Massey conduct
ing the service. Burial was in
the cemetery at Guilford Col-
loge.
Survivors Include the widow,
Mrs. Fannie McCallum; a daugh
ter, Gwendolyn; six brothers,
Arthur, Guilford College, Rob
ert, Winston-Salem, Fulton and
William, Ohio, Enoch, Michigan,
and Booker T., Greensboro;
three sisters, Mrs. L. B. McMll-
llan, Michigan, Estell and Fannie
McCallumr Otillford College.
Mr. McCallum, for nine years
principal of the Davie County
Training school, received his sec
ondary education from Bennett
college in Greensboro, graduat
ing in 1927. His college career
wias pursued at A. and T. col
lege from which he was award
ed the bachelor of science de
gree in 1931. In the fall of that
year he came to Mocksville to
afisume the role of the first high
scliool in the Davie County
Training sohool.
Within a few years after com
ing to Mocksville, Mr. McCallum
organized and estcAlished the
first vocational agriculture de
partment In thia county. In 1934
the deceased was elected to the
prlnclpalshlp of the school
wherein he labored until 1941.
He served in the capacity of both
agriculture instructor and prin
cipal, at which time lie resigned
the former position and matric
ulated at the University of Mich
igan for .further studies in ad-
mlnistratk>n and supervision.
His master’s degree would Imve
been awarded him upon comple
tion of one more summer of
study.
Davle County Training school
made rapid and progressive
strides during Mr. MoCallum's
time of service. The teaohing
force grew from flve teachers
in 1931 to 11 teachers In 1943.
During this period of growth
the school became accredited
and Is at present rated . H-A
by the North Carolina depart
ment of education.
He was instrumental in the
organization of the flrst Boy
Scout troop in Davle county for
colored boys. His activities in
civic and religious, affairs were
no less consequential. His ap
pointment to head the Third
and Fourth War Bond cam
paigns for the colored people
and the success achieved reveal
his itifluence in civic affairs.
Constant attendance and ac
tive. participation in affairs of
the church, regardless *to de
nomination, came natural to the
departed.
Extra curricula activities in

Cover Crops Give
Nitrogen For Cotton
A good stand of legume winter
crops will furnish a large part
of the nitrogen necessary for
cotton, report agronomy research
men of the N. C. Agricultural
Experiment Station at State Col
lege.
Austrian winter peas, hairy
vetch, and crimson clover were
compared with no cover crops at
the Upper Coastal Plain Experi
ment Station. Cotton followhig
the cover crops was given two
different fertilizer treatments,-
600 pounds of 0-8-8 fertilizer per
acre, and a like amount of 3-8-8
fertilizer.
Where there were no cover
crops, the cotton received 600
of 0-8-8, a 3-8-8, and a 6-8-8
fertilizer per acre.'
In the cotton-oorn rotation,
the cotton-following the Aus
trian winter and receiving
the 0-8-8- feirtiilzer-ylelded the
same as the cotton after no
cover crop and fertillzered with
the 6-8-8 mixture.
After the hairy vetch, with
the 0-8-8 fertilizer, the cotton
yielded more than the cotton
after no cover crop and with a
3-8-8 fertilizer.
In the cotton-peanut rotation,
cotton after each of the three
legumes and fertillzered with
0-8-8 fertilizer, yielded higher
than the cotton following no
cover crop with the same fertili
zation.
Terrace Holding Water
Even land which looks as level as this Kansas wheat flold
sometimes needs special conservatioii treatment. Two daya
after a 1^-inch rain, this broad-base terrace is holding
water which the soil has not yet absorbed.
In order to get a good stand
of winter legumes, they must be
planted early In the fall so as
to get set for the winter and be
able to make quick growth in the
spring In time for turning un
der.
These tests at the Upper Coast
al Plain Experiment Station in
dicate that cover crops can be
made to furnish a large part of
the nitrogen requirements of
cotton.
IN MEMORIAM
In the recent passing of
O. M. Howell, Farmington Ma
sonic lodge loses Its master and
one of its most proficient mem
bers of recent years.
He was a grandson of the late
W. F. Swaim, member of Farm
ington lodge, and nephew of the
well remembered V. E. Swaim of
Mocksville lodge. The Influence
of these two Masons upon him
as a boy prepared him for his
love of the work and principles
of Masonry.
As master ,he was a good pre
siding offkser, well prepared for
the conferring of degrees and
the instruction of candidates.
Perhaps his most outstanding
work was as senior deacon in
conferring the second degree
for through his interpretation
the candidate was made to feel
the real meaning and beauty of
this degree. His regular and
punctual attendance and love
for his lodge was outstanding.
His willingness and ability to
help other lodges in degree
work, was well known and often
used.
In his going wo, as brethren,
have sustained a great loss, but
we feel sure he would not have
us grieve, but carry on.
We therefore exitend to his
widow and family our sincere
sympathy and commend them
and us to the great Architect
of the universe who doeth all
things well.

Q. What kind of grassing crop
(Should I sow for spring plge?
A. Ellis Vestal, Extension swine
specialist at State College, sug
gests that you plant sufficient
acreage to a mixture of oats,
rape and lespedeza as early in
February as possible. "An acre
seeded to 3 pounds of rape, 3
bushels of Fulghum oats, and
25 pounds of lespedeza should
furnish grazing for to or three
litters of pigs from the middle
of April until frost," Vestal says.

A. When lime is added to the
surface few inches of the soil
a long time is needed for the
neutralizing effect to penetrate
through the entire plowed lay

N. c. Agricultural Experiment
Station at State College, Field
experiments have shown that
when part of the lime is put
deeper In the soil, better crop
growth and root distribution are
obtained than if all the lime is
added to the surface 4 Inches of

Q. Do cros,sbred broilers out-
weight purobreds?
A. Yes, say research men of
the Agricultural Experiment Sta
tion at State College. In seven
teen groups of crossbred and
purebred broilers, including
purebred Rhode Island Reds,
Barred Plymouth Rocks, and
White Leghorns, and six crosses
of these breeds, only one group
of the purebreds was as heavy
as the related crossbreeds. All
crossbreds were fully feathered
at ten weeks. Differences in
mortality were not great, but
the percentage was lower in all
grpups of crosbreds than among
the purebreds.
State College Hints
To Farm Homemakers
By RUTH CURRENT
N. C. state College
Mud stains, especially on child
ren’s clothes are among the most
frequent clothes cleaning prob
lems in spring time. Mud stains
are not difficult to remove if
dealt with promptly and proper
ly.
Clothing specialist advise let
ting the mud dry, then brush
off as much as passible wltli s
stiff brush. If the mud Is on a
wash garment, soak in clear
water then wash with soap and
warm water. If the grament is
not washable, sponge the stAin
with denatured alcohol. For ray
on and colored clothes use di
luted alcohol. Twice as much
water as alcohol Is the propor
tion.
Mud often does more damage
to leather than to fabric. If left
to dry on shoes It may make a
permanent stain. It should be
removed at once with a wet cloth
or stiff brush. Polish when dry
No ironhig. After washing
overalls in soapy water, rin^e

Red Letter Day in Davie
Last Saturday warf a day of which Davie citizens may
¡well be proud. The Bond rally was a fine example of coop
eration on the home and war fronts.
The American Legion posts of this county did a per
fect job. No county comparable to ours in size could have
nvished for a better performance. The Legion leaders who
bore the brunt of the work are entitled to the highest com
mendation and we suggest that local civic and other or
ganizations write them of their appreciation. Such letters
!«ould become a valuable bit of history to be filed in the
archives of the local posts.
Certainly Saturday was a day, too, which demon
strated the cooperation of the army with the home front.
The band from Camp Mackall, the paratroopers from the
same camp who attracted such a large crowd and the army
bombers from Morris Field all gave the home folks a
glimpse of army activities and showed how eager army of
ficials are to boost the sale of war bonds. We extend oui*
lieartiest congratulations to those army officials at Camp
isackall and Morris Field who gladly gave their consent for
the boys to come herie.
It now appears that Davie is going to exceed her war
bond quota by some. $60,000. Not only will the overall
quota be exceeded but the sale of “E” bonds is going to sur
pass the state average. "E ” bond sales in Davie will com
prise more than 75 per cent of the quota against a state
average of 65 per cent. To be modest about it, there is
nothing wrong with morale in Davie. •
Congratulations, Mr. Graham
Some of the leading industrialists in this country have
long maintained that small, local Industries in an agricul-
lural setting make an ideal aituatton. If such is the case,
Davie county Hts this picture perHectly.
Joe Graham announces this week that he is going into
furniture manufacture here for himself. He has gained
wide recognition as a man who has the “know how.”
Mocksville is situated strategically for distribution of his
products, much raw material is available here and there
are people who welcome the employment at home—^where
they can still live and enjoy the benefits of-rural and small
town life.
We salute Mr. Graham and wish for him much suc
cess.
Sorry to See You Go, Mr. Proctor
We regret to learn that R. S. Proctor, county super
intendent of schools, has resigned to accept a similar |ю-
eition in Wayne county. Yet we are not surprised because
of the reasons he states in announchig his resignation.
During his tenure here Mr. Proctor has accomplished
many outstanding benefits for the school.children of this
cnmty, both in new physical equipment, improvement of
faculty personnel and expansion of courses. In the civic
and religious life of the community his absence will be
keenly felt because he has given generously of his time and
talent wherever he was calle*upon—and the calls were
multitudinous.
We hate to see him leave us but do not blame him for
accepting the larger opportunity. It will be hard, never
theless, to replace him with a man of similar stature.

Tells of Conditions

January 8.
Dear Ml'. McQuage: -
Because of censorship regula
tions I am not permitted to
write of my experiences here as
i: would like. Recently I have
received letters asking various
«questions pertaining to the life
here. Many of which I am un
able to speak of. however, I wUl
continue to answer all that I
can.
LMe in the Southwest Pacific,
<tn the Islands, In the Jungles,
is nut an easy one or a pleasant
jUe. Although we who have
mastered this life' are proud Uiat
we were able to do so. We had
to learn to sleep in the rain, in
mud, in foxholes, even among
the various animals and reptiles
of the Jungles.
At the present time I have a
nice underground apartment
shared with two others. Barely
room to sleep on the Jungle
made beds. Wish I could sand
you a picture of it. Through
rigid Jungle warfare training we
learned to live under most any
conditions thait prevail in the
tropics.
We learned much from the na
tives. Natives of all islands
that I have been on are certainly
not the type that you see in the
movies. They are colored, have
bushy hair and have many
strange customs. Many of you
have seen pictures of them. But
even In their primitive ways they
have an art of doing things that

Real Cure
A crowd had gathered round
a man .who was selling tina of
corn cure. After a long speech
on Its qualities he asked If any
one in the crowd had bought a
tin before,
■ A voice from the back of the
crowd shouted, Yes. I got a box
last week!"
“Thanks you, sir," said the
salesman. “And did you find it
does all I say?"
“Yes, sir—and morel My

TRUCKS MOVE 98% OF FARM CROP
Largely as a result of the cooperation of farmers and
truck operators with the transportation conservation plan,
about 1,600,00 motor trucks, mostly farmer-owned
moved 98 per cent of last year’s huge farm cro]p,at some
stage of the journey from farm to market, the Office of
Defense Transportation says. Other farm transportation
programs now. operating include the movement of live
stock, cotton, fresh fruits and vegetables, citrus fruits, and
poultry.
NO METAL ICE BOX IN NEAR FUTURE
Production of pre-war models of all-metal domestic re
frigerators will riot be resumed in the near future, the War
Production Board said, mainly because reversion would
involve a long change-over period. The hardboard and
wood «rar-model is now being produced at almoet four
times the pre-war rate.
FOOD FOR U. S. CIVILIANS
Civilians in the United States will have more fnmn
vegetables during the next five months as a result of an
expected all-time record high production, W FA has an
nounced. Usually available in frozen form are snap beana,
corn kernels, peas, spinach, asparagus, broccoli, bnuael
sprouts, cauliflower, and corn on the cob. U. 8. civilians
will have slightly less rice in 1944 than during recent
years and less canned milk available ydll be in approxi
mate proportion to civilian purchases under rationing,
which began in June, 1943.
AGRICULTURAL CONSERVATION PROGRAM
The 1944 program for agricultural conservation prac
tices, designed to guide six million farm families in get
ting maximum production from their land, haa been an
nounced by WFA. Among the most important practices
are those dealing with application of lime and pho^hate,
which gives the soil greater “ fire-power,’* immediately
boosting production at low cost. If present acreage of cul
tivated land is managed well, said N. E. Dodd, chief of the
Agricultural Adjustment Agency which manages the con
servation program, U. S. farmers will not have to plow up
grasslands as they did in the last year. *‘The dust storms
and erosion that followed that first plow-up became a
national catastrophe,” he declared.
LESS PAPER FOR PACKAGES
Fewer package wrappings will be available for retail
shoppers this year according to WPB. Shortage of wood
pulp for paper-making will not permit a normal supply.
There will be enough bags for assorted groceries, WPB said.
If housewives save these bags and take them back to stores
for their own re-use . W Pp also advised that the shopping
bag with handles must be used many times to substitute
for individual package wrappings.
LIVE-SAVING TRAINING PAYS OFF
Intensive training in live-saving enabled American
merchant seamen of the SS Mpnterey to rescue 1,675 sur
vivors of a torpedoed troop transport in the Mediterranean,
according to the War Shipping Administration. Some of
the 1,977. persons aboard the transport were saved by other
craft, and only four persons were lost.
GERMAN U-BOATS LOSE THEIR PUNCH
The amount of merchant ship tonnage sunk by German
U-Boats during January was among the lowest monthly
figures for the whole war, according to a Joint Angk>-
American statement issued last week by the Office of
War Information.
ROUND-UP
Because of an increased demand for electric fense
controllers, a substantially greater amount of these de
vices will be produced in the year ending June 30, 1944,
than in any previous year, WPB said . . . Manufacture of
packing trunks, with iron and steel frames, is permitted
for civilian use, WPB announced . . . This year civilians
in the United States will get about 53 out of every 100
pounds of evaporated milk, 158 million pounds of dried
skim milk, and 19 million pounds of dried whole milk,
WFA announced. These quantities are less than the
amounts received by civilians last year . . . Broom pro
duction is seriously curtailed because of acute shortages
of broomcom and handles, WPB reports, and broom
handle production may even continue to decline . . . OPA
has reduced the ceiling prices of fresh sliced codfish four
to four and one-half cents per pound in winter and three
cents per pound in summer . . . Total U. S.' causalties as
reported by OW I February 9 were 150,478, including 34,-
179 dead, 52,292 wounded, 34,743 missing, 30,261 prisoners
of war . . . A shortage of large size tires may delay put
ting into use some of the newly complete farm tractors,
according to the Tractor Industry Advisory Committee
of WPB . .. Hosiery dealers cannot force a customer who
wants to buy fine guage women's rayon hosiery to also
buy coaser or heavier giuige women’s hosiery, OPA says.

FAGEe THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPklSg ImiDAY, FEBRUARY 18, ÌM4
NEW RAnON TOKENS BE USED SOON
BLUE TOKENS; EFFECTIVE FEBRUARY 27
DETAILS EXPUINED OF NEW RED AND
February 27 will be a “red and
Mu« token” day for Mra. Ameri
can Hotuefwiic. Becauae, start
ing that day, she will begin to
«se the new OPA one-point
tokens In connection with her
regular raAlon stamps.
Those tokens are slightly
jmalier and thinner than a dime
and are made of a light but dur
able plastic. Stamped on each
token i5 "OPA 1 Red (or blue)
Point." To begin with, she will
get some of these tokens as
change from her grocer and
butcher—red tokens In change
from her new red stamps and
blue tokens in change from her
new blue stamps. Thereafter die
can use these tokens, at 1-polnt
value, on the same purchases on
which she uses stamps of similar
or equivalent color. '
To aid the 'housewife In
switching over to the revised
food rationing system, OPA has
prepared the following calen
dar:
, Brown Stamps: Y and Z (Book
3) will continue valid for meats,
cheese, etc., until March 20 at
their face value of 8, 5, 2 and 1
points as in the past. Red tokens,
however, may be used with
brown stamps after February
27.
Oreen Stamps: K, L and M
(Book 4) will continue valid for
, processed foods until March 20
: at their face value, as in the
' past. Blue tokens may be used
with green stamps after Feb-
, ruary 27.
Red Stamps: Three red stamps
—A8, B8 and C8 In Book 4—
become valid on February 27
with a point value of ten each or
a total value of 30 points. They
will be good through May 30,
1044, for use with red tokens In
buying meats and fats. Three
more red stamps v/111 become
valid March 112 and others suc
cessively during the yoar.
Blue Stamps; Five blue
stamps—^A8, B«, CB, D8 and E8
In Book 4~win become valid
February 27 with a total value
of 50 points or ten point* each.
They will be good through May
30, 1944, and may be used with
blue tokens for buying processed
fooda.
OPA gave this example of
shopping with stamps and tok
ens: If you buy Items worth 23
blue points, you will give your
merchant two blue stamps and
three blue tokens. If you have
no tokens at the moment you
will give three blue stamp«
(worth 30 ро11П'Ц) and wiil re-
ceiv« seven blue tokens In
change. In all transactions un
til March 20, when the green
and brown stamps run out, you
can get change in tokens for
these stamps Just as well as for
the new red and blue stamps.
Furthermore, in сале some lo
calities might be short of tokens
at the beginning, during the pe
riod between February 27 and
March 20—when the brown and
green stamps run out—valid 1-
polnt green stamps and valid 1-
polnt brown stamps may be used
where necessary in making
change; valid lipolht green
stamps in place of blue tokens
and valid 1-point brown stamps
In place of red tokens.
OPA also added these high
lights:
1. No tokens will be issued to
consumers. They will be (Stained
only as “change" from stores.
Stamps may not be exchanged
for tokens. '
2. Tokens are valid indefi
nitely but, while they have no
expiration date, they should be
spent In preference to stamps.
If they are hoarded they may be
lost, mislaid or stolen and they
cannot be replaced.
3. Red апЦ blue stamps will.
In the future, expire together on
the same dates and will be valid
for about 12 weeks, or three
times as long as previously.
4. Red and blue stampi will
be torn from ration books fi4>m

5. Brown and green stamps
will continue to be removed In
vertical strips until they run
out.
6. OPA urges shoppers to use
their green and brown stamps
flrst, before going Into their red
and blue stamps.
No confusion Is anticipated in
this change to stamp-and-token
plan but. If some does occur in
the beginning, It will be well
worth while because there are
many positive advantages to it.
First, of course, there Is the
longer validity period for ration
stamps. The government will
not have to Issue ration books
as often as beiore and the pub
lic, of course, will not have to
apply for new books so often.
This means a considerable sav
ing of paper and a large saving
in the coat of printing and dis
tributing these millions of books.
To the merchants and banks
It will mean a large saving of
time in counting loose stamps
at the end of each day—an
Item of importance in these days
of labor shortage.
To the purchaser, under the
new ten-point stamp-and-token
plan, a visit to the store will be
easier and. faster. Recently this
new plan was tested in Chicago.
Two lines of shoppers went past
the checking stand of a grocery
store; one line using stamps In
the old way, the other using
ten-point stamps and tokens.
The token line moved past the
Checking stand in less than one-
half of the time required by the
line using the present system,
even though all concerned were
familiar with the old system.
Remember the date of change

Special Vegetables
For Home Gardens
Gardeners who wish to put
In asparagus, lettuce, straw
berries and other small fruits
not generally grown, should get
busy at once, say Extension hor
ticulturists at State College.
They suggest that a wider va
riety of vegetables and fruits
will not only Increase food supply
but will also add a delighful
change to the family menu and
make gardenhig much more in
teresting.
A special War Series Bulletin,
No. 30, has Just been Issued by
the State College Extension Ser
vice to fill the needs of Just
such gardeners and It is free for
ttie asking. Write the Agricul
tural Editor, State College, re
questing a free copy of this bul
letin.
' It contains Interesting infor
mation on how the city gardener
may construct a frame garden.
Tobacco growers will find that
the' tobacco plant bed is an
excellent place for a frame gar
den and can be used to advan
tage in growing vegetables on
the long hot days In summer.
Tlie bulletin also con,tains in
formation on the'- growing ol
onions. The time of planting Is
February for the Tidewater and
Coast/il Plain regions; February
and March for the Piedmont
region; and the lower altitudes
of the mountains in February
and the higher altitudes In
March.
In growing onions the gaixlen-
er should be careful to follow tlie
best methods of cultivation, har-
veting, and curing and these are
outlhied in the bulletin.
Other valuable garden publi
cations by the State College
Extension Service are the Gar
den Quide, No. 201; à Ouide For
Controlling Disease in the Vege
table aarden. No. 265; Vegetable
It»eot Control Ouide, No. 13; and

IN MEMORIAM
Whereas, the Supreme Orand
Master of all Masons did remove
on April 11, 1043, from our midst
oiir brother, W. A. Taylor, and
transferred him to that undis
covered country from whose
home no traveler returns. He
was for 27 years our proficient
and capable trea.surer and his
services were always of the high
est type and he lived and prac
ticed Masonry. Never too busy
to serve Masonry and his church
whenever the opportunity pre
sented Itself and ,hls conception
of Masonic duty was never con
fined to the length of a cable
taut.
William Albert Taylor was
born March 31, 1876, Was raised
to the sublime degree of a mas
ter Mason June, 1910,
We mourn his passing and
shall always miss his genial per-
.sonallty and the hisplratlon of
his presence not only In Masonic
gatherings but In every church
service as well.
Therefore, be it resolved, that
we express to the widow and
family of our departed brotber
our most heartfelt sympathy
and pray that they may receive
comfort from that only source
which can soften their bereave
ment.
Be it therefore resolved, that
a copy of these resolutioni be
spread upon the minutes of our
lodge, a copy be sent to the
widow of our deceased brother.

O. A. Hartman,

Good Quality Milk
From Family Cows
Milk and butter of good fla
vor and quality from the family
cow may be produced in the
home, if It Is properly handled,
says A. C. Klmrey, Sxtoiulon
dairyman at State College.
He gives a list of practical
~*mggestlons for home milk, pro-
f^ucers to follow in taking care
of their milk. First, he suggests
that the milk be kept in stand
ard glass milk bottles In the re
frigerator or hi a bucket or tub
of cool water, where refrigera
tion Is not available.
Just after milking, Kimrey
:sugKests that the producer pour
the milk through three or four
folds of good cheese cloth, A
small tin funnel can then be
used for getting the milk injbo
the bottles. It jihould then be
capped with standard bottle
caps. :
For cooling the milk, the bot
tles can now be placed in a tub
of cold water, for it cools more
rapidly in this way than if put
directly into the refrigerator.
Where no refrigeration is avail
able Klmrey advises changing
the water in the tub several
times dally until' the milk is
used.
After the milk has stood for
about 12 hours, the cream can
be removed from the bottles b}^
using a glass siphon tube. This
cream may be saved for table
use or allowed to sour for but
ter making. Two quarts of sucli
crcam will make about one pound
of butter.
"There Is a great' deal of dif-
ferenoe in the flavor of milk and
butter (produced in the farm
liome but this Is due not so
much to the diets and character
istics of the cows producing the
milk as to the way in which the
milk Is handled,” Kimrey says,

Meanwhile, Dagenhardt and
Hicks approached the scene with
two tractors, one towing the oth

Red Gross
Goal Here
Is $9.000
Oavle county’s Red Cross drive
opens in March with a goal of
$9,000. J. H. Thompson is chair*
man of the drive and Orady
Ward Is co-charlman, it is an
nounced by W. S. Horton, county
choliman.
Mr. Horton points out that
this Is the Arst year that Davie
has had a chapter of Its own
and more than ever It Is neces
sary that the county strive to
exceed any jprevlous sum raised.
Much of the money stays here
to help In war work and other
aid, both to those In service and
at home.
The Oavle chapter, made pos
sible by the efforts of the pre
vious chairman, R. S. Proctor,
and other Red Cross workers,
has no paid workers. All aerv>
Ices have been rendered volun
tarily by men and women as
their contribution towards, win
ning the war.
The minimum county quota
has been set at $4,700.
By proclamation of the presi
dent the month of March has
been' designated as Red Cross
month. The nation wiU be call
ed upon at that time to contrib
ute the sum of $200,000,000 for
the 1944 Red Cross War Fund.
The quota last year in a similar
drive was $25,000,000; which the
people of America gladly over-
subacribed. Our quota is up
this year, by $175,000,000 because
the demands of the Red Cross
have Increased due to an In
crease In our armed forces,
whldh will continue to increase
until final vkitory has been won.
Our armed forces will be dolnc
bigger tasks In 1944 and ^ wlU
the American Red Cross. So
the responsibilities of the Red
Cross increase dally as the war
progresses. $200,000,000 Is $7
for every family in America.
$200,000,000 is $25 for every boy
and girl in the armed forces of
this country.
We are told that the Red Cross
has collected 500,000 pints of
blood for biood plasma, that is
saving the lives of tihousands of
our boys. If the government
had bought this blood It would
have cost $35 per pint or a total
of $175,000,000 which Is near the
nation's quota in this 1944 drive.
But collecting blood la only
one of the many activities of
Red, Cross. Through Red Cross
many thousands of nurses were
recruited for service In the army
and navy nurse corps. Red
Cross production workers made
millions of surgical dressings,
knitted sweaters and other com
fortable articles, as officially re
quested by the armed forces,
sewed miillions of relief garments
and sewed aiid packed millions
of kit bags. Through Red Cross
camp and hospital councils,
many citizens sent Mmfort , and
reerMtlon aids to our men<
Other hands, after oouraes of
training in 3,756 Red Cross
chapters, served tirelessly in the

Davie Bond
Quota Exceeded
Davie county has passed its
"E” bond quota of $132,000 *in

Knox Johnstone, chairman,
reports. The federal reserve
bank advised Mr. Johnstone
that on February 21 reports
showed the county had bought
$132,787.50 worth of “E” bonds.
The overall quota for the
county was $140,000 and the
total bought on February 21
was $215,493. Erwin Cotton
Mills allotted'$25,000 and Ouke
Power Co. $20,000 towards the
Oavie quota.

Leaders Say
Urges Care of
Ration Books
Roscoe Stroud, clerk of the
local ration board, urges
everybody to be as carefnl
with theh- ration books as
though it were cash. If a book
is lost it takes 10 to 30 days
to get it replaced and if gross
negligence is shown, the book
will not be renewed by the
board, Mr. Stroud points out.
Since no one can buy gas,
fuel oil or rationed foods
without books, the books
should not be left in an un
locked car or in places at home
where they may be destroyed
for trash, Mr. Stroud says.

BlUdr has thrown 1$ dWisioBS
into the battle and intends to

gr*d. , v
Speaking in the house of commons in his first war re
view in five montli.3, Churchill said Tuesday that he had
“certainly given no guarantee or even held out any expec
tation that the year 1044 will see the end of thé European
war.” At his press conference President Roosevelt agreed
with Churchill, stating that \ie had been saying the same
thing for two years.
The American people had been led to think that Oer-
many will be eaten this year largely by statements from
military and politcal leaders. General Isenhower said Ger
many could be licked in 1944 if everybody did their full
duty.
Churchill said the air war on Germany would "reach
far beyond the dimensions of anything yet employed or in
deed imagined.” He said England’s airplane, production
equalled Germany’s; that Russia’s also equalled it and this
country exceeded Germany’s two or three times. His em
phasis on the air warfare has led some observers to. believe
that the second front in Europe this year will come later
instead of earlier. The prime minister said that when the
second front opens the English and American troops will
be of equal size but that American forces will be larger if
the fighting is prolonged.
Churchill warned that Germany was still strong, hav
ing 300 divisions, and that the Nazis and the general staff
had decided to "hang together.” He also said that England
could expect new attacks either by pilotless aircraft or pos
sibly rockets or both.
Hitler intends to make Rome another Stalingrad,
Churchill said, but he expects the Allies to win eventually
in spite of the 18 divisions which the Germans have sent
to that sector.
TAX BILL IS VETOED
In a stinging message to congress. President Roosevelt
vetoed the new tax bill. The president called the bill one
for the greedy and not the needy and his comments have
aroused both houses to the point that they may veto the
bill. Senator Barkley, majority leader, attacked the presi
dent’s position and announced that he would resign his
leadership. Supporters of the president.claim that the
members of congress who oppose higher taxes are up for
reelection. Members of both houses say that congress, and
not the president, should write the tax bill; that govern
ment by executive decree means the end of a free America
and accuse the president of playing ' politics for a fourth
term by acceding to demands by the C, I. O. In the new
tax bill labor unions would be forced to file a financial ac
counting.
JAP DISASTER AT TRUK
Tojo fired the heads of the army and navy in Japan
after the disaster at Truk where the Jap themselves in an
almost-honest statement for once admitted that they lost
18 ships and 120 planes. Admiral Nimitz said the Japs lost
19 ships sunk, seven probably sunk and 201 planes. Our
losses were 17 planes and moderate damage to one ship. /
Admiral Nimitz said pai-tial payment for the attack
on Pearl Harbor had been made by the attack on Truk but
the Japs had removed their aircraft carriers and heavy
warships from Truk before the American forces arrived.
Vessels sunk included two light cruisers, three destroyers,
one ammunition ship, one seaplane tender, two oilers, two
gunboats and eight cargo ships. Probably sunk were a
cruiser, two oilers and four cargo ships. American fliers
shot down 127 Jap planes, destroyed 74 more on the ground
and damaged SO more before they could take to the air.
The raids took place last Wednesday and Thursday. TtMire
was no air opposition on the second day and it was hinted
that great damage was done to dock and repair installa*

Today, North Carolina’i doctors and

our Army end Navy from Alai^a to
Iran, from Australia to Italy — bringing
back to health the men who qre helping
win Victory for the United Nations. But
on the home front, other thousands of
doctors and nurses are fighting doubly
hard to keep their fellow-citizens of
North Carolina in good health — doing
everything in their power to prevent or
minimize interruptions in our State’s
war effort.
In a very real sense the well-being of
North Carolinians is in the capable
hands of approximately 2,500 physicians
and surgeons and about 6,500 nurses.
At their disposal are the facilities of 166
hospitals which have beds for nearly
25,000 patients at one time. In an aver

are admitted to these institutions. To

Editorial Comment
When Mr. St'alln made the charge that the Roman
church had supported Fascism and Nazllsm he was not
malcing any new statements, nor was it a peculiar Russian
attitude; it was something which should have been brought
into the open a long time ago.
Many have forgotten that when Fascist Franco put
(down the Spanish Revolution—with Hitler’s aid, a Catholic
¡Archbishop, if we recall rightly, celebrated Mass and of
fered special thanksgiving for Franco’s victory. Yet the
republican regime in Spain was not a Communist affair,
but a people seeking to rid themselves of dictatorship. In
spite of pronouncements of a general nature against op
pressive governments, on the whole, the tone of the Vati
can has been in sympathy with “The bulwarks against
Communism,” as Fascists and Nazis claim to be.
And the Eev. Father Coughlin, never officially disci
plined, is still remembered as quite an active propagandist
in favor of Nazllsm.
Lately we have been reading of a “Peace Now Move
ment” that bears all the marks of many of the earlier
groups in this country which worked hi the interest of Hit
ler. Among these varkms groups there were Innocent peo
ple, blit they were used by leaders to create sentiment in
favor of Hitler, and to create disunity in America, and stir
vp differences between the Allies. “Peace Now," as pro
posed by that group would be the equivalent of a Oerman
:»ictory.
We would like to oommend to our'readers the careful
leading of a recent bocdc called “Under Cover.” Quite a
number of people, some ot whom are in prominent posi
tions, are mentioned in the book, and diown to have had
dealings with the real' undercover workers for Hitler. In
view of the fact that thev book was attacked by many of
those mentioned in it, and though effort was made to sup
press it, and legal action threatened, and yet has become a
best, seller is pretty good evidence that thé author pre
sented facts which he could back up with proof. If you
iwant a picture of those actual underground movements in
America, be sure to read “Under Cover.”
We like the Russian communiques. They report what
has actually been accomplished. They do not report a vic
tory until they have achieved it. We don’t know who is to
Uame for it; but somebody on our side seems to have the
notion that neWs casting includes prophecy, as they are
constantly predicting that we are “On the verge of vic
tory,’ or “on the verge of a great attack.” It does not help
the morale of any people to have their hopes raised, and
ithen let down. Our flghting men are more realistic; they
are not the ones who count chickens tefore they are
hatched.
It should not be a surprise to the American people to
Jearn of atl«cltles by the Japanese and the Germans. In
most wars of the past atrocities have been accidental, or on
the part of irresponsible groups; hi this war atrocities are
«he natural fruits of the accepted Fascist and Nazi phi
losophies. They believe in terror and brutality; they are
parts of the German and Japanese systems. The latest out
burst of planned barbarism was the bombing of a hospital
in Italy, killing a number of the wounded and several
nurses. There can be no peace made with such people,
save that which follows complete victory over them.

More Milking Machines
Available This Year
Bvery fanner milking cows by
hand In this area ahould inves
tigate the possibilities of an elec
tric mllkiftg machine, Manager
W. L . Jonea of the Oavle Elec
tric Membership Corporation,
said today upon receiving word
from the United States depart
ment of agriculture that a sub
stantially larger number ot ma
chines will be available In 1044
than last year. Mr. Jones said
that ten electric milking ma
chines now are In use on farms
served by the Davie Electric
Membership Corporation. He es
timated that each of these ma
chines saves an average of two
hours of labor per day.
According to the department
of agriculture, the 1944 quota for
milking machine production is
140 per cent of 1040 production.
Production schedules are being
met by manufacturers. In ad
dition, machines authorized but
not manufactured In 1043 will
be produced by July, 1044. In
general the savings in labor will
justify the Installation of an
electric milking machine by any
farmer milking ten or more
cows, Mr. Jones said. A ma
chine also may be justified on
farms with less than ten milk
cows In certain cases such aa
only aged or inexperienced milk'
ers are available.
With the machines in use in
1043 labar. n ^ s for milking
were at least 210 million hours
less than would have needed It
all milking had been done by
hand. Mr. Jones said that fur
ther Information on the value ot
electric milking machines on
particular farms can be obtained
by contacting the Davie Electric
Membership ofllce.
CALCIUM
Keep an eye on calcium, is the
advice of food nutritionists to
1944 gardeners and family meal
planners. Calcium is likely to

TO REVIEW FARMER DEFERMENTS .
Local Selective Service Boards have been ordered to
review promptly deferments of agricultural workers be
cause of sharp cui’tailment of available manpower for
the armed forces, Selective Service announced. “It is not
expected that local boards will defer or continue to defer
8 registrant as necessaiy to and regularly engaged in agri
culture unless by his own personal and direct efforts he
produce 16 or more units each year,” Selective Service
asserted. About 1,700,000 men in agriculture were de
ferred in Class II-C as of January 1,1944. Of this amount,
400,000 are single men below 22 years of age and more than
one million are non-fathers. In all other war production
and war supporting activities less than 125,000 non-fathers
below the age of 22 were deferred as of January 1.

RECORD W AR IN THE AIR
Over Hitler’s Europe the air warfare has reached a
new high. British and American fliers dropped 10,000 tons
of bombs in 36 hours on such points as Stuttgart, Leipzig^
Gotha, Bernburg, Brunskick, Halberstadt, Tutow and Os-
chersleben. As many as 2,000 planes participated in the
raids and General Arnold, head of air forces, estimated '
that 25 per cent of the Nazi flghter plane production had
been knocked out by the attacks. With the exception of
one raid in which the British lost 79 bombers, losses were
well under 5 per cent. Churchill said that the American
air force in Europe now exceeded the RAF.
RUSSIANS AT KRIVOI ROO
The Russians have broken into the outskirts of Krivoi
Rog,,rich iron ore city in the*Dnelper bend which Hitler
has held since 1941. Loss of this center is a heavy blow to
Hitler. ’The Russians announce that Ui four weeks they
have killed or captured 190,000 Germans on the Lenin
grad and Ukraine fronts.
ENIWETOK FULLY OCCUPIED
Eniwetok atoll hi the Marshalls has been fully occu
pied. Our losses were 150 killed and 300 injured. It was
announced.
FIGHTING IN ITALY
Fighting for the'Anzio beachhead during the past few I
days has been furious with heavy losses on both sides. Ger
man counterattacks caused our troops to fall back 4,000
yards to withhi seven miles of the sea but we have regained
some of the lost ground. At Cassino the Germcms still hold
two-thirds of the town where the flghting is hard and slow.
The Germans have placed 19 divisions in Italy but It ap
pears that Hitler will not get the victory he wanted so bad
ly for propaganda purposes as much as anything else.
POSTWAR PLAN ACCEPTED
Bernard Biutich has submitted a postwar plan which
has been acoeptesd by the administration. W . L. Clayton,
former cotton merchant of Houston, Texas, has been
chosen to dispose of billions of dollars of surplus war prop
erty and Brig. Gen. Frank Hhws has been selected to be in
charge of retrahUng and reemployment of soldiers, among
other thUigs.
RUBBER FOOTWEAR PRICES lifP
An average increase of 6V^ per cent in retail ceiling
prices of waterproof rubber footwear—rubbers, arties,
gaiters, and rubber boots—has been allowed by the Office
of nice Administration to compensate for increased ootts.
For these higher prices the public will get rubber footwwtr,
more nearly appvoaching the quality of pre-Pearl Hazinr
footwear than that of the Victory Lhie product, OPA said.
ANNOUNCES MORE SUPPORT PRICES
Support prices proposed by the War Food Admhiistra-
tion for hay and pasture seeds in 1944 are in general
higher than those of last year, hicreases of 3 cents per
pound were pioposed for northern alfalfa, red clover, al-
sike clover, and biennial yellow sweetclover, and of 2
cents per pound for biennial white sweetclover and sudan
grass. Western grasses would be increased as much as 50
per cent^ because of harvesting difficulties, and several
grasses appear on the support program for the fhrst time
this year.
ROUND-UP
WPB has authorized production during 1944 of 1 , ^
motorcycles for essential domestic civilian use, 80 for
Can'ada, 650 for e}фort, and 50,000 for military uw. . , .
Use more potatoes in 1944 is the recommendation of
WFA following the harvesting of the largest potato crop
hi history last year.. , . W PB expects a limited number of
domestic electric ranges to be available for essential civil
ian needs during the last half of this year. . . . U. S. war
expenditures in January amounted to $7,416,000,000, al-
most 7 per cent over December, and an average daily riate C^]
of $285,200,000. . . . Because of problems lA getthig feed,
U. S. production of hatchery chicks hi January was 20 per
cent under January last year. . . . Total retail sales for
1943 were $63,269,000, an increase of 10'per cent over
1942, according to the department of commerce. . . . Boys
and girls under 20 who leave home seeking war jobs
should carry with them proof of their age, advises the U.
S. department of labor.... Copper may now be used in the
manufacture of automobile radiators, gaskets, fuel and oil
lines, brake and clutch lining rivets, and other essential
parts, accordhig to WPB. . . . “Small business is more hn-

Dairying To Become
Leading Enterprise
Dairying ia destined to become
a leading iarm entenpriae In
North Carolina because all the
requirementa for auccesaful milk
production can be met here,
says John A. Arey, extension
dairyman at N. C. State col
lege.
"Our climate and our soils
make it possible to graze cows
on a combination of permanent
and temporary pastures approx
imately three-fourths of the
year. During the war years, when
milk Is so badly needed, we
should redouble our efforts to
have maximum grazing for
every milk cow In the state," he
said.
“For the winter and semi
winter months an abundance of
good quality legume hay should
be provided, two tons for each
cow is not too much. This will
keep up the mineral needs of
the cow and furnish valuable
protein to make milk. Its bulk
is also valuable as an aid to
the proper digestion of more
concentrated feeds.
"Where five or more cows are
kept it Is , practical to provide
silage for them. Three to four
tons of silage should be pro
vided for each mature cow. This
provide succulence and a cheap
source ol nutrients for milk pro
duction. An acre of corn fed
through a silo will make more
gallons of milk than any other
way it can be fed," he con
tinued.
Orain is essential, but should
be balanced with the roughage.
It should be so mixed as to sup
ply the nutritional needs of the
cow not met by the roughage
that is being fed. High protein
hay and reasonably low protein
grain will give excellent results.
Low protein hay and high pro
tein grain will give fairly good
results. Rememiber there Is ho
substitute for high quality le
gume hay.
"it our dairy cows are given
all these desirable feeds, housed
in comfortable barns and treat
ed with kindness maximum milk
production can be expected,”
Arey concluded.

At Murphy Feb. 20
Marshall William Bell of Mur-
idty died after ten days illness
at his home in Murphy, Feb
ruary 20, and was buried In the
city cemetery there beside his
little daughter, who died several
years ago. Mr. Bell was born in
Mocksville in 1865, and had he
lived until March 15, would have
been 79 years old. He was the
son of Dr. Marshall T. Bell and
wife, Eliza Williams (Martin)
Bell. He spent his boyhood here,
and when ready for coHege suf
fered an accident thbt destroyed
the sight of one eye, which lor
a time prevented further studies.
But later he devoted himself to
the study of law, and was ad
mitted to the bar in the early
nineties. He located in Murphy
Just after the railroad reached
that town, and had a lucratlc
practice there until his death.
He last left his office late in the
afternoon, and was strlcicen in
his sleep that night.
He served as mayor in his
early life but had no other pub
lic office. He was counsel for
the Southern Railway several
years, and later of the Louisville
and Nashville railroad.
IMr, Bell's father served . as
.surgeon in the Confederate army
from June, 1861, until 1865, and
was for the most part on the
staff of Dr, Hunter • McGuire,
chief surgeon C, S, A. He was
a son of Samuel R. Bell, a
prominent merchant in States
ville, and at the time of his
death was state senator from
Iredell county,
Mr. Bell's mother was a daugh
ter of Dr, James Franklin Mar
tin, long a practitioner in Mocks-
ville, where he had a pre-medi
cal school; and, one year sent
seven of his students to north
ern medical colleges, all of whom
took high honors at college. Dr.
James Franklin Martin was a
son of Col, James Martin of the
Revolution, who was a brother
of Col, Alexander Martin, gover
nor of North Carolina, and U, S.
senator; another brother was
Robert Martin, the father-in-law
of Stephen A. Douglass.
Mr. Bell married Miss Grace

NEWS OF FARM
CONSERVATION
By G. W. McCLELLAN
Jack Booster, near County Line,
is sowing more pasture grasses
this spring. He say's his pas
ture Improvement work last year
was very profitable.
Lee Lamb, four miles east of
Jerusalem church, is doing some
more tcrracing this year.
Mrs. J. H. Humphries said re
cently "farmers are learning
some of the old practices they
used to do are out of style and
inadequate now.”
Reed Towell, near County
Line, has disced his kudzu
patch, and plans to lertilze it
too. He said he got profitable
grazing from his patch last year,
He can expect lots more grazing
this year by treating his kudzu
this way.
Norman R'ummage is ready to
seed about three acres of pa»
ture grasses this spring. Mrs.
Rummage said, “We’ve not had
enough good pasture all along.”
They should be able to produce
more and cheaiper milk with
better pastures.
It is a good time to apply 400
pounds of 0-14-7 fertilizer per
acre (or 400 pounds of super
phosphate) on one acre or more
pasture. Once you start this,
you will want to continue as it
will be very helpful and profit
able.
