Robert S. Curtis, livestock marketing specialist, in corres- ^ndence with County Agent Oeorge Hobson, stated that the ewes were crossbred Ramboull- let-Columbla yearling ewes ready to breed this fall for a crop of lambs next spring. The cost de­ livered to Salisbury will be ap­ proximately $14.50 per head. Fourteen carloads of tihese sheep have been distributed to Interested North Carolina sheep­ men during the past two years. When given proper attention they have done well. There are a large number of acres of land in Davie county that should have sheep grazing on them. Sheep grazing on Johnson grass will eradicate it.

Any one interested In the purchase of these ewes are ask­ ed to Inform the county agent. #DAVIE SOLDIER PLAYS HILL BILLY MUSIC FOR ENJOYMENT OF ENGLISH A picture has been received by The Enterprise from an Eighth Air Force Liberator station in England which shows a Mocks- vllle boy, Cpl, William R.

Each week The Enterprise Bummariies the war hews, both abroad and at home, so that readers nuiy get a quick, bird’s eye view of important happenings. Following the sensational successes of the Allies in' France,' particularly the Americans, Berlin has admitted that defeat for Germany is drawing closer and that the Germans will flght desperately in the future only for the purpose of trying to force the best possible peace terms in­ stead of for any hope of victory. This admission was made Tuesday night by Lieut. Col. Kurt Dittmar, Hitlers leading Nazi radio commentator, who flatly said that Germany had lost since D-day “con­ siderable parts of what we thought we had firmly in our ■ hands” and that the present situation reminded him of 1940 in reverse. ' ADVANCES IN FRANCE While Allied headquarters continues to keep their ex­ act position a secret in order to confuse the Germans, it is confirmed that General Patton’s Third army has taken such historic places as Chateau-Thierry, Belleau Wood, ChaJ>onS;S.UC:Mame, Vitry-I« Francois and Soissons. They are now within 40 miles of the Belgian frontier and within 40 miles of Verdun which guards Germany’s Moselle valley. It is oiTicially stated that the Germans have lost more than 275,000 killed or captured since the invasion of France! In southern France the German 19th army has been badly beaten and the enemy fleeing up the Rhone valley can use the roads only under constant air attack, perfect flying weather prevailing. American troops are above Montelimar, 100 miles north of Marseille, 'fhis latter place and Toulon are now flrmly in Allied hands. RUSSIANS ON THE MOVE ‘ The Russians have captured the great Romanian sea­ port of Constanta and are now on the outer fringes of the Ploesti oil flelds. Meanwhile Romania has the Russian demand to declare war on Germany and Hungary is trying to find some way to get out of the war. It appears, however, that Hitler has been able to get a puppet military dictators,hii> formed in Hungary. PEACE PLANS Delegates to the Big Three conference at Dumbarton Oaks issued a statement on a proposed world peace agency Which would consist of an assembly composed of all peace- loving nations, a smaller group of nations called a coun­ cil which might be called an executive committee. Force would be applied to keep the peace.

MtiCLELLAN , Mr. Loiyiie Kurfees says 2.58 inches of rain fell in Mocksvllle on August 16th in possibly 35 minutes. This is the kind of rain that causes so much soil erosion After this rain one could easily tell that soil had been moved where land was not protected against'erosion. I W, H. Bracken has some ter­ races on his small farm west of Cana. During a recent rain he said he could not walk in the flow line of his terraces with rubber boots on as the water was too deep. Mr, Bracken paid a neighhor $25.00 to build,his ter­ races, but says he wouldn’t have them taken out for $200, Some people think the Middle Yadkin District over-cmphaslzcs the value of Kudzu and Serlcea lespedeza; There are no other plants that will excell these plants in erosion control on badly eroded land. One of the best jobs of erosion control done by kudzu anywhere can be seen on a steep bank on the "Pudding Ridge” Farm, near Cana, operated by Wade Groce, This plant is doing what cement and rock could not do In controlling erosion, BUY W AR BONDS and STAMPS BETHEL Ml'S.’ Janls Grlflln of Salis­ bury spent a few days this week with Mr. and Mrs. Frank Sain, R, M.

All each citizen has to do is gather up the paper, tie it in bundles and leave it on the front porch. Trucks will pick it up during the day. The government needs paper badly. It is used literally In thousands of war items and there Is a drastic shortage of wood pulp. The only place the government can get enough is from the attics and basements of homes and from the various business houses. When this drive is over, continue to save your old papers of al kinds and magazines. Don’t burn them. Col­ lections will be made more frequently because the need for papas is now comparable to the past need for scrap metal. Don’t forget to leave your scrap paper on your front porch this coming Sunday morning. ' .Cold Day in August There is an old maxim which runs—“It’ll be a cold day in August before—.” Well, it has come to pass. Not only one cold day but two of them. The official reading in Winstpn-Salem on Sunday was a low of 54 and a high of 62; on Monday a low of 58 and a high of 65. Well, the weather man can tell you what happened to cause the cold spell but he can’t tell you when it will hap­ pen again. If he could bring a few of them during the summer, he coulcj write his ticket for an3rthing he wanted In this topsy-turvy world. A JOKE A DAY • » v o u Р О А в О Т Ч О Н Я ^ f M n O N ' a O O K , R l T A l * ^ SOFTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME WILL BE PLAYED MONDAY AT 2 J iWhy the Secrecy? Barring the press from the world security conference at Dumbarton Oaks does not make the best sense to us. Winning the’peace will be a tough enough job with all of "the enllghtment that an informed people can bring to the task. We agree with Senator Bridges that “the American people and the American Congress are entitled to know .what is going on.” Had there been a fi^ee press in Germany and Japan, Hitler and,Tojo would never had been able to get away with what they did. Think what Mussolini did to the Italian people after muzzling the press! We do not believe any peace terms can be made to stick unless the people are kept informed. Certainly that applies to this country—and any other country that at­ tempts to be democratic after this war. The thing the world wants most after this war is over Is to find peace. Finding it and keeping it is a stupendous Job. It can’t be done by a few people behind closed doors. Tlie press should have the opportunity to tell the truth, the .whole truth and nothing but the truth. Suppose, for instance, that the American people had been convinced after the last war that Germany was using American loans to build another war machine; that she did not intend to pay reparations; that the German people would support any leader who believed in force and theft through military power rather than earning a place in the nations of the world by peaceful means and superior ef­ ficiency; that Germany could get us into another war dur­ ing our lifetime; that Japan was determined to extend her possessions, particularly to conquer China, and that she .would go to war to do so. We refused to believe that we could be forced into a ;war. We thought we could stay out of it by minding our own business, being protected by two oceans. A lot of peo­ ple told us that and now we know how grong they were, no matter how honest in their opinion. We were asleep. Eng­ land was asleep. France was digging her grave through a “bought” press and rotten leadership. No wonder Hitler called the democracies “decadent.’ How badly a free press was needed in the thirties! How badly H will be needed in the forties! Somehow we must learn that preserving the peace is not a political football to be kicked around by any party or group. It is the deadly serious business of all parties. The individual cannot know who is right- or who is wi’ong unless he is informed. Mere affiliation with any particular party does not within itself make an individual informed. It is the job of the press to give the people full information on which they can reach an intelligent conclusion on what is going on in the world around them. Then they can choose their leaders more Wisely—and with a better chance of staying out of war. Plans are now completed for playing oil the championship softball game on Labor Day, September 4, at 2:30 p, m. at Lewis Field In Cooleemee. The competing teams will be the flrst shift Splnnlng-Cardlng- Slashlng team from the mill and the second shift Spljjnlng-Card- Ing-Slashlng, who respectively won first places In their leagues. Following this championship game, an all-star game will be played between the first and second shifts of the mill, using those players voted as the out­ standing ones on the various teams. It Is hoped that the Cooleemee band will furnish ynuslc throughout these two games scheduled for the after­ noon. Following the- championship games the winning team will be- given a barbecue dinner that night,by the mill management. This is the prize all teams have been working for. In view of this all-star pro- g^am, good wholesome enter­ tainment is offered to spectators and the general public Is cor­ dially Invited to attend. There will be no admission charge made for these games, ahd should rain Interfere with the schedule a new announcement will be made concerning the next available date for playing off this championship. . Put your idle Hollars in Wai Bondal Inherited Traits Of Poultry Important Some of the most important factors In success with poultry are the inheritable charcterlstlcs In birds. This Is why poultry authorities always stress good breeding, said Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the poultry department at State College. The age at which mature sex­ ually, the rate of egg production the size of the eggs, the ability to continue laying^ tor a long time, and the hatchablllty of fertile eggs laid by the birds are among the inheritable traits. By culling out inferior birds and breeding only those which have the desirable traits, poul­ trymen can build up good flocks that will pay big dividends through the years. When birds mature early, he said, they start laying early, and the sooner they start laying, tl\e sooner they ^tart returning a profit to the poultryman. The rate of egg . production means the number of eggs a bird will lay during her laying period. Those which lay Irregularly can­ not be as profitable as those which lay every day. The size of the eggs Is also Important, as poultrymen who sell uniformly large eggs get bet­ ter prices than those who sell small ones. The hatchablllty of fertile eggs, which apparently Is Inherited, is of obvious Import- Ooctor: “No, not Z m«tu u * you constricted?” Young Man: “No, 1 enlisted." Doctor: "Good grief, man. Do you not know the King’s Eng­ lish?” Young Man: “The heck he Is ” Minister: ‘‘Would you care to join U3 in the new missionary movement?” Miss Ala Mode: "I’m crazy to try it. Is It anything like the fox trot?” He: "Do you think your father would be willing to help me In the future?” She: “Well, I heard him say he felt like kicking you Into the middle of next week.” Mr. and Mrs. Smith had been invited to a friend’s for tea, and the time had arrived for pre­ paring for the visit. "Come along, dearie,” said Mrs. Smith to her three-year-old son, “ and have your face washed.” Don’t want to be washed,” came the reply. ‘®ut” said the mother, "you don’t want to be a dirty boy, do you? I want my little boy to have a nice, clean face for the ladles to kiss.” Upon this persuasion he gave way, and was washed. A few min­ utes later he stood watching his father washing. “Ha, ha, daddy!” he cried. "I know why you’re washing.” FOR VICTORY BUY W AR BONDS AND STAMPS A la-FOOT M09EKN COMtlNI CAN HARVEST AND THKISH AN ACMK Of WHEAT IN Mi HOUKt W ith t h e aid ev t o d a vIi m a c h in es w hich.

Mother: “When that naughty boy threw stones at you, why didn’t you come and tell me In­ stead of throwing them back at him? Willie: “What good would It do to tell you? You couldij’t hit the side of the barn.” • The traveler was Indignant at the slow speed of the train. He appealed to the conductor: “Can’t you go any faster than this?” "Yes,” was the serene reply, "but I have to stay aboard.” The hired man on a New Eng­ land farm went on his first trip to the city. He returned wearing a scarf pin set with at least four carats bulk of radiance. The Jewelry dazzled the rural belles, and excited the envy of the other men. His employer bluntly asked If It was a real diamond. “If it ain’t,” was the answer, “I was skun out oi half a dollar.” Traveler: "Who’s the close­ mouthed Individual over In the corner? He hasn’t spoken for ten minutes.” 'Village Wit: "Hy Blackmore. He ain't close-mouthed. He’s Jest waitin’ till Pete comes back with the spittoon,” Mother: "Why Is the baby cry­ ing?” Johnny: "Oh, he’s mad because I tried to teach him to smile with your glove stretcher.” "How’d you get along with your wife in that fight the other night?” "Aw, she came crawling to me on her knees.” “Yeah? What did she say?” “ 'Come out from under that bed, you coward.’” A young hillbilly was taking his physical examination upon entering the army. Doctor: “How are your ade­ noids?” * Young Man: "They didn’t give me any.” ance, Dearstyne said. Likewise, the ability to con­ tinue laying for a long time is a vital factor in determining the profitableness of a bird. Early feathering Is another In­ heritable trait that Is of great Importance In the production of broilers. MORE ABOUT IV A R N E W S the last year, Secretary Perkins added, average prices of family living essentials have risen 1.8 per cent, as com­ pared with advances of в per cent and 11 per cent in the years ended July 1943 and July 1942. Higher prices for fresh fruits and vegetables were noted. Prices for pototoes, sweet potatoes, spinach and onions were up in July, but there were large decreases for cabbage, lettuce, and greén beans. y SHOTGUN SHELLS If you have a few moments to spiare, p u may begin to oil up the family flinttock. WPB has taken cognizance of the fact that animals and birds are causing widespread destruction to crops and Uvéstock all over the country. The ban on the sale of ammunition to hunters will be removed temporarily in the near future. Available for nimrods will be 240 million rim fire cartridges, 8 million center flre cartridges and 130 million shotgim shells. Wolves, coyotes, foxes, weasels, wild ducks, crows and pheasants should not be told of this regulation. Happy hunting. GO-TO-SCHOOL CAMPAIGN PROGRESSES More than 40 natlon&l organizations — educational, economic, social and civic— are supporting the campaign to get employed high school pupils back to classrooms next month. In 30 states especially organized campaigns are under way. Greatest Stress is being placed on the import­ ance of having a well-educated citizenry in the post-war era and the hundreds of thousands of high school boys and girls who have gone to work are being advised by veterans and others of the importance of preparing for the new era. In a joint statement, Katherine F. Lenroot, chief of the Children’s Bureau of the U. S. Department of Educa­ tion, said, “Throughout the campaign we are stressing the importance of developing well supervised school-and-work programs in those communities where the labor supply is tight and where the work of young people is both needed and desirable.” NEW CEILING PRICES ON BRIDES? Now life has no more surprises: In Durban, South Africa, a man was able to get himself a wife by paying her dad $88 in hard cash plus seven crowns. So what? So, into the office of the Price Controller there appeared a man who protested that his prospective father-in-law had jacked up the price to $128 in hard cash. The f-i-1 explained that Increased cost of living made it necessary for him to boost his price. The Controller allowed ,as how the problem was beyond his province. But, says Canada’s Wartime Infor­ mation Board which reports the incident, it proves that even this primitive man could see the solid common sense and usefulness of price control. ARMY CAN FIELD 50,000 BALL TEAMS The Army pucliases annually enough baseball equip­ ment to outfit 50,000 baseball teams and 100,000 softball teams; the Navy enough for more than 11,000 and 22,000 respectively, OW I report's. The Array and Navy buy up about 90 per cent of all sports and game equipment pro­ duced in the United States and, as a consequence, civilians can expect little or no increase for the present in the amount left over for their use. Last year the services bought sports and game paraphernalia, devoted to the use of enlisted men costing $38,000,000. Even so, total new supplies represents approximately one baseball glove for every 17 men in the Army and for every 28 In the Navy. CEILINGS RESTORED ON FIDDLES That ancient fiddle which grandpa bought and whièh you have been hoping all along may prove to be a Stradi­ varius has come again under price ceilings—^if the in­ strument is definitely worth more thai} $100. (If it’s a Strad, it’s worth thousands!) At any rate OPA announces that among the several additional commodités which have been brought under the maximum price regulation for used consumers’ goods must be included violins, violas, viollncellos and string basses that are more than 25 years old of a kind that sold new for more than $100 at retail. »This is done,” OPA says “because these instruments ap­ preciate rather than depreciate in value after a period, of time and pricing formulas made for other types of used goods do not result in fair prices when applied to these instruments.” Might be well to hold on to the old fiddle, / ' COOLEEMEE CANNING TOTAL PUSHING RECORD OF PAST YEAR The community cannery which has been In operation two days a week since the 19th of July, will cease operation today.

The total food canned t.o date Is 3494 cans. Today will bring to a close the canning season for the cannery. Those persons who have canned goods at the cannery may get them at their conven­ ience.

Wooden Egg Cases Should Be Saved Wooden cases for packing eggs will not be available in 1945 and growers will have to depend on boxes of fibre board construction unless all cooperate in saving all of the wooden cases possible, says C. P. Parrish, in charge of poultry extension at N. C. State college. He points out that there was a relatively high breakage of eggs last spring when poultrymen were forced to pack eggs In all kinds of containers. "With the food situation as it is, this should not be allowed, to happen again,” says Parrish. He urges poultrymen to pur­ chase all the good, second-hand egg cases possible at this time and store them for next year. To all stores, cafes and buyers of eggs in case lots he issues an appeal to save the wooden cases and cooperate with the farmers in taking care of next year’s egg crop. It is estimated that about 85 per cent of next year’s eggs will have to be marketed in fibre board cases. The production of this material is below actual re­ quirements and box manufac­ turers receive their allocations of flbre board on a monthly basis.

Edward W. Olazener, as­ sistant county agent in charge of poultry In Chatham county, reports that Palmer Fox of Slier City, Route 1, has dug a 10 by 12 foot cellar under his feed room. Fox has noted that whereas the temperatures ranged from 20 to 100 degrees during the year in the feed room, the temperatures in the egg cellar varied from 40 to 73 degrees. The diflerence between the high and low tem­ peratures in the cellar was 35 degrees as compared with 80 de­ grees In the feed room. “Pox realizes that keeping eggs as near 60 degrees as possible Is es­ sential for good hatching,” says Olazener. Q. Can I . gauge the fertility of soil by the weeds that are growing' on It? A. Yes, say specialists at State college. On poor land you will fUid such wedes as bear grass, .bitterweed, bracted plan­ tain, poverty ferass, poverty cat grass, buckhorn,' cinquefoil, golden rod, green brier, mustard, oxeye daisy, plneweed, rabbit clover, rough buttonweed, sand spur, sheep sorrel, and yellow weed. Q. What are the best varie­ ties of small grains for the up­ per Piedmont section of North Carolina? A. We suggest that you write the N. C. Crop Improvement As­ sociation, State College, Raleigh, for a copy of Agronomy Infor­ mation Circular No. 136. This publication gives results of of­ ficial variety tests on wheat, barley, and oats by the agricul­ tural experiment station.

FSA MEDICAL PROGRAM SHOWS EXPANSION IN DAVIE COUNTY Families participating in the Bowan-Davie PSA medical care program during the ilscal year Just ending numbered 106 rep- ‘Tesenting 911 persons, according to the ai^nual report compiled by Mrs. Virginia C. Miller, As- •iociate FV3A supervisor, in Row­ an, Davle and Cabarrus counties. •Cabarrus county was formerly .affiliated with the Rowan-Davle aasoclatlon, but withdrew In No- Tember, 1942, since it had large enough membership to establish « separate organization. For 'this reason the report showed a smaller number ol participants than lor the year 1942-43. More people were served, however, during the preceeding year—352 calls lor medical care In 1943- 44 as compared with 335 dur­ ing 1942-43. Money paid out to the 29, phy­ sicians attending members of the medical care program was tlnaB, which paid lor 342 ot- ice calls, 56 hospital calls, 247 liome calls, and ten obstetrical cases. The medical care program ol FBA was begun in these counties in February, 1940. Since then .the number oi F3A families par­ ticipating has steadily Increased with'only a low percentage dis­ continuing the service. This pércentage generally came from lamllles moving out of the coun­ ties. The plan works simply. The father and mother pay $4 piece and each additional mem­ ber of the family group pays $2, with $18 as maximum. The money Is pooled and placed In care ol a trustee, J. E. Fisher, ol the Farmers and Merchants bank at Granite Quarry. Bills are sent monthly by the phy­ sicians In the counties to be re­ viewed and approved by a com­ mittee composed ol Dr. Harold H. Newman, Dr. Irvln Shaler, both ol Salisbury, and Dr. C. E. Brown ol Faith. . During the year Just ended the association has paid the bills 100 per cent. Mrs. Miller com­ mended the doctors In the two counties on their cooperation in all three phases'ol the FSA pro­ gram. The Davle-Rowan sur­ gical care program which pro­ vides lor surgical care lor the participants; Rowan-Davle med­ ical care which'silpplies medical attention, and the hospital care program which is carried on through state agencies—Davle lamllles through Hospital Care Association, Inc., at Dui<ham, and RowE^n lamllles through the Hospital Savings Association, Inc., at Chapel Hill.

Allied Now Ready To Invade Reich Missing Pfc. William. M. Potts ' has been reported missing in France since August 7, ac­ cording to notice received from the war department by his wife, the former Elizabeth Myers, who lives in China Grove with their two-year-old daughter, Byerly. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. A. W . Potts of Route 2, Mocks­ viUe, and before entering serv­ ice January 23, 1941, made his home in Davie county. Miller Recommended For Draft Board Lonnie L. MiUer, former mem­ ber of the local dralt board, has been recommended to the state selective headquarters, to suc­ ceed E. M. Holt, who resigned on August 31, it is stated by S. H. Chaffin, clerk ol superior court and a member ol the board which contains T. P. Dwlgglns and Charles Erwin as the other members. Mr. Miller has.stated that he would accept the position, Mr. Chaffin said. The recommendation was mailed to Raleigh last Friday, alter a request had beeri made to the committee to select an­ other member iollowlng Mr. Holt’s resignation. POLIO BAN IS LIFTED BUT CITIZENS ARE WARNED AGAINST OUTSIDE TRAVEL At a special meeting ol the Davie county board ol health Tuesday aiternoon it was de­ cided to lllt -the ban on gather­ ings ol children in public places, efTectlve Monday, September 11. The ban became effective on July 17 because of the wide spread epidemic condition ol in­ fantile paralysis. It was the opinion of the local doctors that Inasmuch as there has been only one case ol polio reported Irom Davie county, that the re­ strictions could now be modified. The doctors were quick to state that unless people relratai Irom visiting back and forth Into other counties where polio has been prevalent, that aU that has been done for Davie county might be quickly undone. It was, therefore, urged by the board that parents refrain from taking children on visits outside of the county. It is just as bad, mem­ bers of the board pointed ont, for people from other counties to come to Davie county on visits; The board was appreciative ol the fine spirit ol cooperation shown by the people of the county during the emergency, and desires to commend official­ ly all ol those who have so wUl- ingly cooperated to keep down the spread ol the dread d|sease. It is hoped very much that noth> ing wlU be done to cause an out­ break In the county at this late hour. Each «M k The Enterprlae mimmMrlses the war newi, both abroad and at home, so that readers may get a quick, bird’s eye view of important happeningi. Sensational developments have been witnessed during the last few days in global warfare. Although much of the lightning speed of thé American forces in France, particu* larly Patton’s Third army, have not been revealed because of the desire of the Allied high command to keep the Ger< mans from knowing what has taken place, some of the headlines include the following: American patrols penetrated the German border last Sunday to ünd out the strength of German resistance. Pat­ ton’s men have met still resistance near the border. Aht* werp has been taken and the battle of Belgium appears. most over. The battle of Holland is well imder way and Rotterdam is expected to fall soon. General Isenhower has asked the Belgian patriots to attempt to keep the Germans: from destroying port facilities. The robomb coast of France has been largely cut oil, Dieppe having been taken by the Canadians and BrititOi. troops appear to have by-passed Calais and have Dunker­ que under seige. American armies from southern France and northern France appear to bé near each other, if not already joined. Lyon has been taken in southern France. Finland has ollicially quit the war and Russia has de­ clared war on Bulgaria. GERMANS ADMIT DEFEAT A German high command radio commentator admit­ ted that Germany was being defeated and that its fate rested in the hands of "third line” reserves being mobilized to defend the borders of the reich—meaning older men and woimded. CHANNEL COAST DEFENSE The Germans, although badly beaten in France, are fighting desperately to hold the robpt temb coast of France. There are an estimated 100,000 troops trapped in this area and they are buying time for the Germans by future sur­ render or death. Meanwhile London has a lull of more than'80 hours from the robot bombs but they were resumed later on a smaller scale. An English oüiclal said London had won the battle ol the robots. WHAT. ANTWERP MEANS The capture of Antwerp, one of Europe’s great ports with 28 miles of wharves, affords a prime landing place for Allied supplies and reinforcements in the battle of Ger­ many. It is only 66 miles from the German border and it was reported that tlie port was taken so swiftly that the Germans were unable to do much damage to the facilities. RUSSIA ON THE MOVE, Russian troops have broken through Nazi defenses on the Warsaw battlefront and are within 50 miles of Yugo­ slavia. The final battle for Warsaw is now on. FIGHTING IN PACIFIC Tokyo has warned the Japs that, an attack on the Philippines may not be far (>il. At least 57 Jap vessels have been destroyed or damaged by raids against enemy ship­ ping attempting to run the Allied air blockade which ex­ tends over shipping routes between the Philippines and In­ dies. Mindanao island in the southern Philippines has been a repeated target for our planes.

Hitler’s Little Mustache Is Turning Gray Adolf Hitler’s little mustache Is turning gray because of his worries and he did not make a scheduled speech Sunday be­ cause he was just too down­ hearted to follow his theme— sure victory for Germany and new terrors for the Allied world —reports to Allied diplomatic sources said yesterday. Hitler was all primed to make his speech, it was said, when news reached him that Metz and Nancy had fallen and that the Allies were about to enter Brussels. *He was so deeply de­ pressed, it was added, that he could not go through what would have been a farce. Usually reliable sources said also that Hitler had failed to use new secret weapons partly be­ cause he needed more time to produce them in sufTiclent quan­ tity to cause great damage and partly because he feared the Al­ lies would^ retort with more ter­ rible ones. Hitler was said to fear espe­ cially retaliation by Russia. Ger­ man scientists were said to sus­ pect that Russia was holding some terrible weapon in reserve. All families In North Carolina are asked to eat an extra roast- chicken a week for the nevt few weeks and help clear the market of over-slzp fryers'. The average yield of Sunrise barley at the Experiment Sta­ tions In the Piedmont and Coast­ al Plain was 54 bushels this year, and for Iredell 49.1 bushels. Kudzu is noe of the besttempo- ; rary grazing crops for building : . up the dairy industry in Rock- Ingham county, say Extension Service representatives. The U.

L. (Lovvorn, In ' charge oi forage crop Investiga­ tion for the Agricultural Experi­ ment Station at State College. He recommends, however, that no grass be seeded on land that ■will not ,make as much as 20 bushels of corn per acre, “Les- pedesa alone should be used on such land until the fertility has been increased to allow the grow­ ing of grasses,” he explains. “To maintain legumes in the sod, limestone and fertilizer must be applied, Limestone will last for several years but a 500 pound application of 0-14-7 is needed every two years. Manure is desir­ able on all pasture soils but es­ pecially on eroded areas." On good medium soils of the Piedmont, for example, Lovvorn recommeds a mixture of 10 pounds of orchard grass, 5 of Dallisgrass, 15 of lespedeza and a pounds of white clover. For poor to medium soils, he suggests a mixture of 6 pounds of orchard gr^s, 6 pounds of redtop, 5 pbunds of Dallis grass and 15 ' /.pounds of lespedeza. Experience has shown that it Is best to sow orchard grass, red- top, and white clover in the early Jail. Although tests Indicate that Dallis grass may be seeded in the fall, it is generally sown in early spring alo;ig with lespedeza. Since conditions vary through­ out the territory, it is suggested that growers consult their county agents in determining just what BETHEL Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Penry and daughter, Maurine, of Erwin Tenn., are visiting Mrs. Penry’s mother, Mrs. Alice Hopkins.

For cheaper and better feed, plant a grazing crop about Sept­ ember 1. Seed relatively heavy and fertilize well. North Carolina’s flue-cured tobacco crop, hard hit by early drought, is estimated to yield 22 per cent more than last year. pasture mixtures are best for their conditions.

McCLELLAN Fred Lakey, near Cana, sow­ ed about seven acres of pasture grasses and clovers last fall using lime and fertilizer. Mr, Lakey says he got enough of extra grade A milk this spring from this grazin'g to pay the entire cost of seeding. He is sowing two acres of new pasture this fall and is going to drill in some grass and clover along with fertilizer on about ten acres of old pasture. This shows he Is finding good grazing profitable. J. W. Cartner, near Moeksville, is planning to sow ten acres of grasses and clovers this fall. This is a good move on Mr, Cartner’s part.

Norris Dies at Age of 83 Funeral services for former Senator George W, Norris, ,83- ysar-old lawmaker, who had spent 40 years in the congress of the United States, were held Monday afternoon at 3 o’clock (MiWT) in the First Congrega­ tional church of McCook, Neb., where Senator Norris made his home. Senator Norris died late Saturday from a cerebral hem- morhage which he suffered at his home on August 29. He never regained full conscious­ ness, I The silver-haired congress­ man, who fought his way to the top of the heap of the nation’s lawmakers because he wasn’t afraid to disregard party lines in flghting, and voting, for what he thought was right, had only re­ cently been elected to the hon­ orary chairmanship of the Na­ tional Citizens’ Political Action Committee with the following declaration; "I intend to do as much as I can,” The lawmaker, long a Repub­ lican, broke with that party in 1922, and had been an independ­ ent politically since that time, Norris was the “father of the Tennessee valley authority, and the "lame duck” amendment. He was one of six senators to vote against the United States’ entry into the flrst World War; he believed that the only way to lasting peace after the current conflict Is the unconditional sur­ render of our enemies, their complete disarmament, and the education of their peoples In the ways of peace. One of Norris' greatest fights was for conservation of natural resources, and public ownership of hydro-electric power. He was born on an Ohio farm in 1861, and began his public career as a school teacher at 16, He begari practicing law at Be­ atrice, Neb., in 1885, President Roosevelt said his passing meant "a pillar of state has fallen, 'He is survived by his widow and three daughters. 10,000 Bottles of Beer Destroyed Dr. E. W. Constable, head of the chemistry division of the state department of agriculture, reported that a totarof 10,000 bottles of beer have been der sti'oyed in this state during the past six weeks because of its be­ ing contminated I with sediment containing mold fllament and spores. Most of the beer, he said, was found in the Winston- Salem area. According to Dr. Constable, the producers of the beer "vol- iinitarily consented to the beer's being poured out and outlined plans looking to the prevention of its recurrence.” He declared that other lots of beer have been withdrawn from sale in this state and held un­ der embargo for further action. "There appears to be .some tendency toward carelessness in the production of this product, as well as in some other lines which come under the head of foods,” declared Dr. Constable, adding “this may in part be at­ tributed to circumstances of present-day production brought on by the unprecedented demand and a shortage of help.” He asserted that investiga­ tions are underway on other products. Dr. Constable explained that the department of agriculture is responsible for the wholesome­ ness of beer, pointing out that the N. C. food, drug and cos­ metic act defines the term food as “—articles used for food or drink for man or other ani­ mals.

In the last war she quit when her military condition was letter than it is today. Sortie think Hitler may finally try to get some kind of better peace terms by offering to surrender. Others think Ithat while the end is in sight, the Nazis may fight to the bitter end. The Siegfried line is a much-discussed topic. Germany spent three years with 300,000 men in building it. But the question arises as to where Germany will get enough first- class flghting men to defend it adequately. A cross-section opinion is that stubborn resistance may be expected at the Siegfried line but that it can be breached. Guns and bombs can destroy fortificationis and paratroopers can fly over it. There is much speculation over the kind of conditions which may be found in Germany when the end comes. If the Nazis flee, and there are rumors that many of the big­ wigs have already secured planes and submarines to carry them somewhere, possibly Japan or Argentina, there may be no organized government with whom an armistice may be arranged. It would be a case of military government until some responsible government could be founded. Ooebbels is telling the Germans that if they quit now they will.go into slave labor. No doubt Russia will demand that many of them help' rebuild her country—and rightly to. The German people have fought tills war—not just the Nazis and Junkers—and they will have to pay the pen- alt/ for their sins and atrocities.

The Elkin Iron Lung Last week it was gratifying to see in newspapers of this section the news item concerning the use of the Elkin Iron lung. It was reported that this valuable medical equipment had been loaned to the city of Roanoke, Va., for use there in an emergency. It is said that there are several lungs in the Roanoke district, all of which are being used for polio cases. ' The iron lung at Elkin was recently purchased by popular subscriptions on the part of the citizens of Elkin, and in the surrounding communities of Surry, Wilkes and Yadkin counties. The lung is operated by ^he Elkin Emer­ gency Squad, which sponsored the campaign for raising money to purchase the machinery. Much credit must go to the Elkin Tribune for the part it played in helping raise the funds. This section is fortunate in having an organization, Buch as the Elkin Emergency Squad, which is ready, with all its equipment, to render every service possible, not only to the people of EUcin, but to anyone who needs it in the surrounding district. The iron lung should prove a great asset to the people of this section, and is a tribute to the men who first conceived the idea of its purchase. Of course it is hoped that it will never be needed in the Elkin area, but there is joy in the knowledge of knowUig that it is ready If it is needed. A JOKE A DAY Old Man (to reporter): Young man, you can put in your paper that my secret of health and long life is to eat some garlic every day.

Gordon, Extension specialist In home management and house furnishings at N. C. State College. She points out ithat the time, energy and the small amount of money needed for adequate stor­ age of foods Is one of lihe best Investments that any family can make. Ideal food storage should be convenient to the kitchen, according to Mias Gordon, re­ gardless of whether It Is located In the house, cellar, or an out­ side building. She specifies that the stor­ age imit have tlgiht floors and walls, reinforced with an Insul­ ation material to help In preven­ ting extremes In temperatures. It should be cool In summer, frost proof In winter, well venti­ lated, and dry at all times.' All shelves need to be flmUy braced so that they will be strong enough to carry their valuable loads. The larger and heavier containers can best be kept on Polio and House Flies The appearance and spread of polio and Infantile pa­ ralysis has long baffled» physicians and scientists. It was once thought the mosquito was the guilty carrier, but now Dr. Edward Fiszebek of Chicago, an authority, now at the head of the polio hospital at Hickory, puts the guilt on the house y. The polio was discovered Inside the fly where it thrives for months after the fly has been killed. The virus Is not killed by freezing.. Dr. Fiszebek says that the ease with which the polk) virus was found in flies, where they had access to human sewerage proved the source of the car rler beyond a doubt. It seems that polio germs are in the body the year around, but they invariably strike in the hot summer months when children tend to over-exert themselves and are possibly more run down. In one Middle Western town the Chicago health officer said that the source of an epl demic was traced to a front yard lemonade stand operated by a little girl who became a victim. Some patrons of the stand were healthy carriers who gave the malady to others The Concord Tribune calls upon the people of the city the lower shelves. The height of jar will determine the distance between the shelves. To estimate the distance between shelves, Miss Gordon suggests that tWQ Inches be added to the height of the small containers and eight inches to that of the large con- talnejia. This year, when It Is necessary to can fruits and vegetables with little or no sugar, It Is advis­ able to make a note on the label about the method of packing. “The Job of producing the family food supply Is not com­ pleted until It Is carefully stor­ ed,” Miss Gordon concluded. The hired man on a New Eng­ land farm went on his flrst trip tb the city. He returned wear­ ing a scarf pin set With at least four carats bulk of radiance. The Jewelry dazzled the rural belles, and excited the envy of the other young men. His em­ ployer bluntly asked lf.lt was a real diamond. “If it ain’t,” was the answer, “I was skun out o’ half a dollar.” Cotton Insulation, flrst manu­ factured In 1940, may be widely used In home refrigerators and freeing units after the war.

A man can have one wife too many and still not be a bigamist.” to start a campaign against house flies, which can go in a minute from a filthy place to a clean home. , Every place where there are swarms of flies is a potentialq?vo where there, are swarms of flies is a potential breeder of polio. The Times adds that this “will mean that as long as these unwelcome guests remain in our midst, a poten­ tial back log for a polio epidemic is provided that a ‘march of dimes’ stretching from Locke mill to the postfflce would not cure.”-^News and Observer.

OPA HELPS DAD GET NEW FELT HAT The office of price administration considered the prob­ lems attendant upon the production of dad’s new fedor%^ and has come up with a solution: A new price regulation covering Australian and New Zealand rabbit skins and hatters’ für cut from these imported skins, has been issued by OPA. Recently, sellers of hatters’ fur have been forced to curtail their sales and production because of the abnor­ mally high prices in the foreign market for rabbit skins. While the new hatters’ fur prices do not lower the general level of hatters’ fur prices previously in effect, hat manu­ facturers will be able to buy raw skins at lower prices or to buy a larger percentage of their requirements of hatters’ fur from cutters at the March, 1942, level of celling prices. SHOE STAMPS GOOD INOEFINITELY Removal of time limitations that restrict the use of special shoe stamps is announced by OPA. The new pro­ visions apply to all special shoe stamps, except that those . issued to Mexican border residents must still be used by consumers within 30 days. Previously, some qiecial Shoe stamps—such as those issued as extra rations—had to be used within time limits. The provisions affect only special shoe stamps and in no way involve the validity of regular war ration shoe stamps, either for consumer or trade use. CAR RESERVES NEAR VANISHING POINT There are only 20,000 new passenger, cars in the coim- try today, OPA announces. The quota of new passenger automobiles available for rationing in September will be 3.000 with another 300 as regional and 300 as national emergency reserves. This is the smallest quota since pas­ senger car rationing began, and a 40 per cent cut from the August quota of 3,000. The new September quota is less than 8 per cent of the September, 1943, quota of 40,600 cars. FOOD CAN BE BAD FOR MORALE—GOERING The Nazis have apparently discovered that food can be bad for public morale, especially if it has aspects of exhibi­ tionism. Reichs Marshal Hermann Goering’s newspaper, the Essener National Zeitung, Is aware of these dangers and reports in an article obtained by the office of war ta- formation: "It must be considered bad taste to publicly eat a ham sandwich whose origin is generally suspicious even if nothing illegal can be proved.” The eating of fresh fruit in public, now that fruit is “also vei^ scarce” was cited as another histance of bad taste. Nazis are also told that Germans may also become resentful if they observe fellow citizens “strutting along with fat cigars.” OPA LIMITS SECURITY DEPOSITS From now on landlords may not ask for more than a month’s rent in advance in addition to the security de­ posit (if any) which may be asked of prospective tenants. In other words, a tenant may leave a security deposit, not to exceed $10, for the landlord’s use to provide for the re­ covery of such movable objects as keys or ice trays. But over and above that the tenant may not give more than a month’s advance payment of rent. “The action was taken,” OPA said, “to prevent use of security deposits as a means of evading rent control.” In some cases, the agency landlords have been requiring advance payment of months’ or even one year’s rent. Even where a tenant does occupy rented quarters long enough to use up his prepay­ ment of rent, OPA believes that necessity for making these pasnments imposes an unwarranted burden on the tenant. DRY CELL BATTERY PRODUCTION GROWS Progress by the dry cell battery industry hi its renewed effort to increase production was reported by %rmy and WPB representatives at a recent meeting. At the same time, the industry was urged to spare no effort in effecting fur­ ther increases, since production is still about 28 per cent below minimum niilitary and civilian requirements. Over­ all production in July was about 170,000,000 cells as com­ pared with average monthly production of slightly less than 73,000,000 cells in W40. August reports are expected by WPB to show a greater Increase, reflecting further ex­ pansion in plant facilities. INDUSTRY NEEDS 250.000 WORKERSf With cotton textile production lagging, the industry has been f^oed since May 1 with a need for hiring nearly a quarter of a million workers by November 1, in order to expand its output to meet fully the estimated demands for cvotton products, the war manpower commission says. As yet, WMC said, only a small number of cotton textile plants have made manpower utilization surveys or sought tl^s service In order to determine the specific causes of labor turnover. 65.000 STORES START PAPER DRIVE Fully 55,000 chain and independent drug stores and 10.000 variety stores are signing a pledge, taltiated among themselves, to conserve paper bags and wrapping paper in cooperation with the WPB drive to save wrapping mate­ rials.

Big Crop of Seed Needed ..A few minutes after a robot bomb had exploded in this > row ol houses “somewhere in southern England,” civil de­ fense worlters—including wom­ en—were on the spot to save lives, quench fires, clear wrecl<- age, restore any'essential serv­ ices damaged. This was the re­ sult of only one of the 5340 robot bombs launched by the Germans up to August 2. The woman was dug out of the wreckage and is shown being carried to an ambulance over the remains of her home. FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Q. VWiat Is the best method •of preventing scab In wheat and abarley? '' A. Plow under the stubble of ■corn and small grains as soon after harvesting as possible, says Howard Oarrlss, extension plant IMthologlst at State college. This disease attacks corn and lives over from season to season In the corn stubble. Some of the most serious losses from this dis­ ease in wheat and barley have occurred where the crops were planted behind corn. It has flhown-considerable Increases In North Carolina in recent years. Q. What are the celling prices on sweet potatoes for the whiter months? A. The office of price admin- iBtratlon has announced the fol­ lowing celling prices per bushel f. 0 . b, shipping points: Novem­ ber 1 to 15, $2.40; November 16 to January 31, $2.80; February, <2.90; March, $3.10; April, $3.20, and May and June, $3.35. The extension horticulturists at State college urge growers to handle aweet potatoes as if they were •eggs In harvesting as fewer Begin Fertilizing Strawberries Now The use of fextllizer on Straw berry fields In goverened large­ ly by the same principles that apply to their use on other crops. As soils differ greatly in their composition, the problem of fex- tlllzer'is chiefly local, to be. sol­ ved by each grower according to his own conditions. . losses wllKresult in storage. Blue prints for converting a tobacco barn for curing and storing sweet potatoes may be obtained by writing the Agricultural En­ gineering Department, State Col- .lege, Raleigh. ' Q. Can I get special service in the handling of poultry dis­ eases? A. Yes. The first thing to do, of course, is to contact your county agent. If he Is unable to correct conditions, the problem is referred to the poultry depart­ ment at State college. H. C. Gauger in the research depart­ ment there, for example, has held conferences with 273 poul­ trymen during the past year, involving 179,200 birds. He has made 3,020 autopsies and writ­ ten 1,432 letters on poultry dis­ ease problems. "I have found consistently that high yields and best quality berries come from growers who make two applications of fer­ tilizer and give their beds the ¿roper care in doing this," says J. Y. Lassiter, Extension horti­ culturist at State College. He recommends that a 5-7-5 fertilizer be used, with at least half of the nitrogen coming from organic sources. For average con­ ditions in eastern NOrUi Carolina an application of 750 pounds per acre in late August or early Sept­ ember and another 7.i0 pounds in December or early January Ehoultl be made. The August or September application sliould be applied as follows; one-half of the fertilize in furrows (2 to 3 Inches deep) on each side of the row and covered, The December or January treatment should be applied on top of the bed when thoroughly dry and brush the loose material off the leaves at once. The August br September ap­ plication is suggested, to stimu­ late growth and fruit bud ^for­ mation during the fall montJis and tihe December or Januaiy treatment will supply plant food for maturing the crop. “Plan to do this now because it Is too late next spring when you find your yield and quality are poor,” Lassiter says.

B U T W A R BONDS and STAMPS State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By RUTH CURRENT \ N . C. state CoUege In making a dress at home, use mercerized cotton thread on wash fabrics and on all dull- surfaced materials. Buy thread that Is a shade darker In color than your material because col­ ored thread usually works In lighter when It’s stitched. The best time co buy buttons Is when you’re getting pattern and goods. Choose buttons that will stand washing or dry clean­ ing. And, this might be a good time to consider the belt, you want so you’ll be sure It suits the buttons and the fabric. Well-dressed for home work. Here Is a flve-way test for a home work garment: 1. It Is comfortable—allows fcir free action, and for warm weather It Is cool as can be. 2. It has safety-flrst fea­ tures, such,as sleeves that won’t catch on pan handles. 3. It has time and energy- saying features—easy to make, to put on, and to launder. 4. It Is durable material and workmanship. 5. It Is attractive because of good design, and not because of some outside decoration like an embroidered flowerpot or perky bow. Patterns for these garments are now being produced by a commercial company for the home seamstress.

How To Get Exira Money For Cotton “Green” damp .cotton, poor ginning, and trash In the lint cost North Carolina growers many thousands of dollars every year on the early picked cotton through reductions In grade of the lint. “Ask the glnner, who submitted samples to the government clas­ sing lalboratory last year, to let you see his records of the first few weeks of ginning,” says C. L. McCaslan, Extension gin specialist at State College. “Ex­ amine them carefully and' you will see that It was impossible bo gin this cotton properly because It was just as green as one of those apples that gave you bhe ‘tummy ache’ when you were a boy. “The seed were fllled with water and, even though this cot­ ton seemed dry to the hand, it was actually high in moisture and In no condition for ginning. It should be thoroughly dried before It is carried to bhe gin. The practice of rushing early picked cotton to the glnner so that you can get some money to pay picking ‘hand’ costs you dearly. “Mechanical driers are valu- aible for Improving the average cotton samples but they are^hot cure-alls. Regardless of how hard the glnner tries, he cannot give you a good sample on this green and damp cotton. Reduced grades cost you real money. “Poor picking also results in reductions In grade. Check the cards that you receive from the Government classing office and you will note that bhe cotton of one tenant, picked under ex­ actly the same conditions as the other, sells for an exbra $5 or more a bale.

Get Combine Ready For Soybean Harvest Since about 250,000 acres of soybeans are to be harvested for tieans this year, combines should 1)e overhauled, necessary adjust­ ments made, and the field pre­ pared for harvesting. “A certain amount of pre-h{ir- yest preparations by the combine «wner and also the farmer, who ptens to have his beans com­ bined, will certainly make the Job simpler and easier for «11 «oncerned,” says Joe Bllckle, Ex­ tension agricultural engineer at State College. First, he suggests that all such «ibsturctlons as rocks and stumps t>e plainly marked with tall stak­ es.

If the field is to be combined form the outside to the center, Blickle suggests that a swath about 6 to 10 feet wide be cleared all around the field. If the field is ridged and is to be harvested in land, and 8 to 10 foot swath should be jileared across the end of the field and the ridges level- eded with a disc to give a smooth doorway for the paissage of the combine across the ends. . If large weeds are removed from the field by hand before harvest time, the combine will handle the crop much more sat- ■ isfactorlly. I “Under the most favorable conditions, combining soybeans tJirows many excessive strains on the machine,” Bllckle says. “Therefore, It Is Important to put the combine in the bestlnechani- cal condition possible. When making the pre-harvest check­ up as to repairs and adjustments, do not compromise. A thorough overhauling of the machine pays big dividends at harvest time.” Pfc, WiUlam (BUI) Webb, son of Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Webb,, shown MboTc, la serving with the U. 8. force« OTcraeaa.

Labor Day Playoff Decides Winner As had been previously planned, the game to deter­ mine the championship softball team was played Labor Day, Sep­ tember 4, at Lewis Field before a crowd of approximately 300 people. The winning teams competing were the Carding-Spliming- Slashing teams from the flrst and second shlfta, respectively. The first shift team won by a comfortable margin and was awarded the barbecue dinner which had been promised the winner. Immediately following the championship game, an All-Star game between the All-Star« se­ lected from the flrst shift teams and those from the second shift teams was played. This game, too, fell to the first shift’s credit but only by a one run margin.. Music for the occasion was furnished by the Cooleemee band which added considerably to the pleasure of the occasion. This program cuhnlnated a very suc­ cessful season, and plans are at present under consideration for continuation of softball on an even larger scale next summer. Tips For Saving Extra Hay Crops The latest crop reports pre­ dicts that the United States’ hay crop will be about four million tons less than last yfear’a. Thla can mean a serious diortage of feed during the coming winter, but if every farmer wlU strain a point and save Just a little more ttay knd roughage than he had planned, roughage will be con­ siderably Increai^. Tlie fanner who has consider­ able acreage of soybeans fof seed can affoiid to cut a few acres of hay rather than sacrifice part of his livestock or let his neigh­ bor sacrifice theirs,” says Enos Blair, Extension agrononmlst at State College. “Some hay may also be har­ vested from cowpeas planted for seed or for turning under. “Lespedeza planted for seed may be used in part for hay. In fact lespedeza cut for hay now has a good chance of making enough seed, to harvest later. This, however, Is not true If the hay harvest is delayed until Sept­ ember. “All stubble fields diould be mowed. There Is usually a stand of crabgrass at this time of the year which will make hay equal to oat or timothy hay If cut In early bloom. Some of the^e fields In Western Carolina wil yield a mixture,of red clover, lespedeza, crabgrass, and ragweeds. This makes good hay if out about September 1. "Many tooacco fields grow up in crabgrass In late summer. In such fields the tobacco stalks should be cut and the hay har­ vested Just as fiopn at it comes into bloom. “Corn stover rates between hay and straw In feeding value. BUY WAR BONDS and 8TAMFI Where ther« la plenty of hay, we Tips on Planting i Winter Legumes winter legumes alhould be planted after auch crops aa to bacco, truck, soybeans, or cow- pea and lespedeza hays, says Enos Blair, extension argonomlst at N. C. State college. He sug­ gests that the soil be disced to a depth of four inches, rather than plowed, and that the crops be drilled rather than broadcaat. DrllUng distributes the seed more evenly, saves seed, and of ten gives a good stand In dry weather where other methods of seeding fall. Blair recommends that crimson clover be drilled about one-half Inch deep as with lespedeia. Vetch and Austrian winter peas can be covered abotit one ahd à half to two Inches deep as with small grain. 'It is impossible to prepare a seed bed and plant winter le­ gumes or time after such late maturing crops as corn, cotton and peanuts,” says Blair. “We can -,however, resort to planting between the rows of the stand­ ing crop. “In the meantime a very suc­ cessful practice is to broadcast the seed between corn rows at laying-by time. Vetch and Aus­ trian winter peas are broadcast before thé cultivator and crim­ son <dover behind it, so that It will not be covered too deep. Laylng-be time In the Piedmont and Coastal Plain is too early for these seed to be sown but this method can be followed about September 1. Crimson clover sOiould be cov­ ered with a very light harrow Instead of a cultivator. In ridged crops the seeds may be broad­ cast and followed with a middle burster or ‘cotton plow.’ This has the effect of planting two rows of seed on each cotton or corn ridge. ‘‘A still better way is to use a one-horse open furrow drlU, that plants three rows in each mid­ dle. This Implement, however, covers the seed too deep to be used for crimson clover. A corn planter can be used In plantbig a row of vetch or peas in each middle of peanuts.” Prepare To House New Crop Pullets Much labor can be saved and the profits increased if the lay­ ing house is properly prepared before the new crop of pullets is housed. "A few extra hours of abor getting the house ready will pay good dividends by pre­ venting disease and Increasing the efficiency of (he flock,” says T.. T. Brown, fotenaioh poultry specialist at State College. All hens should be removed from the house at least two or tlhree weeks before the pullets are to be brought in from the range. Troroughly clean and scrub the house with hot lye water. After it has had time to dry, the house should be disinfected wltb a standard disinfectant. The nests and roost frames should be clean as 'well as the floors and walls. “Before housing the new pull­ ets, check the roof for signs of leaks and repair them If any are found,” Brown sugsests. ‘'Re pair and remodel the nests, feed­ ers and roost racks. Paint the roost racks with red mite paint or creosote of with motor oil. Be sure the watering system is thoroughly clean and In good order, if a- pressure system is used. With tubs or buckets, ar­ range them in a rack or frame with a pan underneath to catch any dripping or leakage, This will Pasture Furnishes Much Cheaper Feed Good pastures fumUhes the cheapest of feed nutrient« for both milk and cattle production and aids in maintklning the health of livestock, says Enos Blair, Exit^nslon agronomist, and A. C. Kimery, Extension dairy­ man, of State College. Where one-third of all the feed for dairy cattle came from pas­ ture, the pasture cost was only one-seventh of the total cost ot the tcfd. The more pemwnent pasture and temporary pasture provided for the dairy herd, the lower are the man-power needs on the farm. Under average «ondltlons, eras­ ed pasture produces about three fowtihs as much digestible nu­ trients as would the same grass­ es, if they were allowed to ma­ ture and were made into hay. However, the differences invol­ ved in labor cost and the chance of weather damage to hay more tihan compensate for the dif­ ference in digestible nutrients. Pasture grasses should be ^azed reasonably cloeebut not to the extent of damaging, the sod or preventing reasonable growth of the grasses,” say the specialists. They suggest the use of temporary grazing crops for late fall, early spring w l ^ the grasses are getting started, and during the hot, dry periods of summer. Pastures constitute ithe best source ot minerals tor livestock. "Immature grasses contain about twice as much phosphate as does fKshly curfti hay fnm mature grasses,” tihe specialists explain. "The dry matter of immature gi&as contain about four times as much mineral as does an ave­ rage of the cereal grain and as much as average legume hay. The minerals in immatuer grass are, however, more readi­ ly assimilated by the . animals than are minerals in dry feed. Orass produced on fertile soli also oontaiifs more minerals than that produced on poor soil.” Grows Old Deliberate Old Lady (who has been taking a lot of time in se­ lecting her purchase): "But I don’t think toils Is lamb.

Charles C. Erwin. In line with the recom­ mendations of the state board ot education, the full number of children are to report to their several schools at 8:30 o’clock on Monday morning, September 18. Teachers will report to their respective buildings on Thurs­ day and Friday' for a workshop conference in preparation for the opening of schools. Students who have not entered school, such as beginners who did not attend the pre-school clinic and new pupils who have moved into the school community, should report to the school on Friday morning at 8:30 o’clock. All stu­ dents who are transferring from another school should bring a complete school record of grades and credits in order to be prop­ erly enrolled. The schedule for the first few weel^ of school will be the same as/iiut year, from 8:30 to 1 6vloek, In order that children may have most of the afternoon to assist with farm work. The schedule for tlie first day, on Monday, will be from 8:30 to around 11:30 or 12 o’clock. It is hoped that parents will cooper­ ate with the various schools in keeping children in school every day and in having them on time each morning. Mr. Erwin will ineet with all the colored teachers in the county on Thursday morning at 9:30 at the Dple County Train­ ing school, and with all the white teachers of the county at 2 o’clock on Friday afternoon at the Mocksville High school, t9 discuss with the teachers the major school program for the year. All teachers will be ex­ pected to attend the meeting. The bus drivers will secure their buses from Carl Briggs, head bus mechanic, at the coun­ ty garage on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, according to the schedule by schools. Buses will not operate to the schools-until Monday, September 18, at which time they will operate on full schedule. All bus drivers re­ ceived tralAlng at the ,bus driv­ ers’ training school 'on August 21-22, and hold official certifl cates from the state of North Carolina for the operation of school buses. m HERE AND THERE CANNERY HOURS Beginning next week the Mocksville community cannery will be open each Tuesday and Friday from 1-6 p, m.

At­ lantic Coast Line Railroad com­ pany the sum of $21,000 damages arising from the death of her husband, who was first lieuten ant in the army of tihe U. S. at the time of his death. He was killed in the tragic train wreck in' eastern Carolina a number of months ago. SAVE WASTE PAPER lx)cal citizens are urged to continue to save their waste paper and old ' rags. Another collection will be made on the first Sunday in October by the local legion post and the Boy Scouts. ON FURLOUGH Pvt. Hugh W. Bailey, son of D. M. Bailey, of Advance, came home last Tuesday to be here until September 21. He will then go to ft sovftvnment hospital in Florida. He was wounded in Italy oh March 22 when a shell fragment went through his back into his stomach, ^n operation being necessary to remove it. He was hospitalized in Italy until the last of June, returned to duty and later reentered the hospital. Passes LUTHER EDWARD LEAGANS EDWARD LEAGANS DIED SEPTEMBER 9 liUther Edward Leagans, 10 former member of the marine corps and of the U. S. merchant marine, died last Saturday morning at the Rowan Memorial hospital in Salisbury. He had been seriously ill for about three months. Death resulted from an affliction which developed fol­ lowing a blow on th^ leg by a baseball about five years ago, it was stated. He was the first Davie boy to join the local American Legion post as a veteran of World War II. He is survived by his widow, the former Miss Naomi Wagoner, of Route 4, Wihston-vSalem; by his parents, Fred R. and Flos­ sie Spry Leagans,'' of Mocks- vllle; by a sister, Mrs. Dennis Powers, of Charleston, S. C.; by his grandparents, Mrs. Gran­ ville Leagaus of Cana and Mrs. Lula Spfy of Route 4. A preliminary service was held at 2 p. m. Sunday at the home of T. E. Wagoner of Route 4, Winston-Salem, followed by a service at 4 p. m. at Eaton’s Baptist church, conducted by the Rev. Ranson McAlpln and the Rev. E. W. Turner. Inter­ ment was in the church ceme­ tery. Members of the local American Legion post served as pallbearers and a color squad and firing squad from an army camp at Greensboro also as­ sisted in the service. okANGE NAME The Central Electric Si Tele­ phone Co. has made a change, effective September 1, in its cor­ porate structure by transferring telephone properties to a new concern to be known as the Cen­ tral Telephone Co.

The mate, now 32, Is still working. 565 Absentee Ballots Sent Mrs, Frank Carter states that 565 absentee ballots have been mailed from Darie to service men. Of this total 115 have al­ ready been returned. NEWS OF FARM CONSERVATION By G. W . McCLELLAN Paul Blaekwelder, manager of Twin Brook Farm has been cur­ ing some quality hay from lespe­ deza. He does what more people should do In curing hay, he rakes it in windows about the time it is wilted and lets it finish curing in the swath. This practice saves more leaves, makes a hay wjth greener color and is much more nutritious, Improving the flavor and holding the much talked about vitamins. Tllden Angell, north of Mocks- ville has 5 acres of sericea les­ pedeza on some poor soil that should makc^ around 500 pounds of seed per acre. He says he hopes to sow about 20 acres of poor land in this crop next year. Mr. Bracken, near Cana, spent $23,00 for terracing last spring, and he said he recently that he would not be without these ter­ races for $200.00. Apparently this has b^en a helpful piece of work for Mr. Bracken. Winter legumes being sown for winter cover crops should be sown immediately, most people wal> too late to sow them. By all means Inoculate the seed if they’­ ve not been sown before. Some Local Students Will Report Today J. L. Lowrance, superintend­ ent of the local schools, asks that the following types of stu­ dents report at the local schools this morning, Friday, at 9 a. m., in order that some of the details connected with the opening on September 18 may be gotten out of the way: Beginners who did not attend the pre-school clinic held last spring. Pupils who attended some other school last year. Tenth grade students who reg­ istered for typing. All girls who registered for third year home economics. All high school students who because of failure on some sub­ ject, or for. any other reason find it advisable to change a subject for which they regis­ tered. Mr. Lowrance states that co­ operation by parents and pupils will be appreciated by the teach­ ers. SCOUT HONOR ■Roscoe Stroud, Jr., will be pre­ sented the Eagle Scout badge, highest scouting honor, at the Methodist church next Sunday morning at 11 o’clock. The pres­ entation will be made by Bunn Hackney, Scout executive of this district, assisted by Ralph Har- binson, field executive. IMPROVING Mr. and Mrs. s. D.

While there is a blackout of much of the spot news in Europe in order to keep the enemy uninformed, it is ap­ parent that the assault on the Siegfried line and Germany is near at hand. American forces have penetrated Ger­ many at three points, Berlin having admitted one. It is also stated that penetration would be made at six other points. Patton’s Third army has established 11 bridgeheads across the Moselle river. Le Havre has been taken by the British. General Isenhower has told the Germans two highly significant facts: One is that he now has live armies in Eu­ rope and that he will rain destrijction on them from the air; AIR WARFARE , Germany has already begun to get a heavy pounding ^ from the air by Allied airmen stationed in Britain, France ; and Italy. On four different occasions within a week the ' enemy has lost more than 100 planes, our losses also being ^ high. Oil refineries, aircraft plants and ordnance depots have been the principal stargets. In addition our troops ^ are getting tactical support in the front lines. GERMAN PENETRATION ' Units of General Hodges’ First army blisted Into Ger­ many last Monday morning from Luxembourg,' taking ' Trier which is the oldest city in Germany and former home of Karl Marx. On Tuesday units of the same army plxmged into Germany from the Belgian border city of Eupen and about ten miles south of Aachen. On last Monday the Rus­ sians also annoimced that they had entered East Prussia with patrols which later withdrew. Thus German soil was reached in the east and the west on the same day. ACTION AGAINST JAPS It looks like the attack on the Philippines may be near. Palau, Jap base 600 miles east of the Philippines, has been/ repeatedly attacked from the air and shelled by the big bat­ tle wagons of the navy. Of greater importance a task force hit Mindanao in the Philippines, destroying or damaging' 89 Jap surface ships and 68 aircraft. It was the first sea­ borne attack on the Philippines. QUEBEC CONFERENCE President Roosevelt and Pi’lme Minister Churchill are : meeting again this.week in Quebec. Military staffs and po­ litical leaders are also on hand. Some of the problems they are reported to be discussing include; War against Japan and the part that each country will play in the matter; what to do with Germany after the war; who will be the Al­ lied commander against Japan; how to relieve the war sit-; uation in China at present which is admittedly bad; what part Russia will play in the flght against Japan. Stalin declined an Invitation to attend the conference, stating he could not leave while the Russian armies were so busy fight­ ing. BLUE TOKENS-^FAREWELL If you!ve got some blue tokens in jibur purse, better use them now, because after September 30 they will be' no good only for the kids to play with. Until next Sunday the Office of Price Administration says, you can use thiem just as you always have used them. Beginning Sunday, September 17, retailers will cease giving blue tokens to consumers as ration change, and shoppers will be able to spend them only in groups of 10'. If necessary, ^shoppers may pool tokens to make up groups of 10. Removal of prac­ tically all canned and bottled vegetables and fruit spreads and specialties from rationing September 17 makes use of blue tokens unnecessary.

C.) ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15,1944 DAVIE FARMERS SHOW BIG INCREASE IN SOIL-BUILDING PRACTICES ■ OParaners of Davie county car­ ried out approved soll-bulldlng practices encouraged under the eonservatlon program of the Ag­ ricultural Adjustment Agency on • large per cent of the county’s enypland during 1943, according to a report received today by N. Bi Vyson, chairman of the county AAA committee. The report, forwarded to Mr. Dyson by the State AAA office at Salelgh, showed that percentage of the county’s cropland in the program In 1943 was 9 per cent •bove that in 1942, but was 14.3 sreater than the average during •he lour years, 1936-1939. , "A steady Increase in the con­ servation practices carried out In this county under the A ^ pro­ gram snows that farmers realize the importance of preserving the productivity of their soil,” Mr. Dyson said. "The new records for total agricultural production farmers of this Nation have es­ tablished each year for the past seven years would not have.been possible If our land hadn’t been in shape for all-out production when we needed It most. When the war came, American farmers were ready for peak production, and results of past conservation measures can be seen in the greatly Increased per acre yields we have harvested In recent years.” Biggest Increase Iti conserva­ tion. practices carried out In the county, 'Mr. Dyson said, is noted in the application ot fertilizer materials. As shown In the report, farmers of Davie county in 1943 applied 7308 tons of ground lime­ stone, compared with 2187 tons in 1942, and an average of 510 tons per year during the, 1936-1939 period. Applications of phos­ phate, in terms of 16 per cent material to hay and pastureland were listed as 91.2 tons in 1943, compared with 28 tons in 19^, and an average of 3.8 tons per year during 1936-1939. Other practices carried out in the county during 1943, accord­ ing to the report. Include; 9080 acres seeded to green manure and cover crops, and 29,900 Unear feet of terraces constructed. The following seed were distributed by the AAiA In Davie county In 1943: Rye grass, 4,000 pounds, Vetch, 12,300 pounds, and Aus- traln winter peas, 22,400 pounds. “Some figures In the report probable would have been higher except for revision of the con­ servation program to fit war­ time needs,” chairman Dyson said. “Since the war began, the AAA has emphasized those prac­ tices whloh would contribute most to immediate Increases in production of urgently needed war crops. Also, practice pay­ ments are no longer made for practices which have become ‘routine’. The present program, likewise. Is aimed at immediate increase in production of war crops.” BUT WAR BONDS and STAMPS IJAMES X ROADS Mr. and Mrs. J. O. Anderson of Center were Sunday guests of M. E. Olascock and family.

It Is Not Over Yet German soil hM been Invaded for the first time tiy American troops but the fighting is not over. The optim Ism of a week ago about the war with Germany being •bout over has receded and more peopletare Inclined, to lean to General Isenhower’s comment: The war can end this year if every one does his duty. More and more it looks like Hitler is going to fight to the end. Allied troops have come up against, or are near­ ing, the Siegfried line. It is conceded that it will take a well organized ànd powerful drive to breach the line and overrun Germany.* Several factors are in our favor in defeating Germany on her own territory. One of the most important include airpower which Is expected to pound the Siegfried line and cut German communications as was done In France. An­ other is an airborne army that can land behind enemy line. A third is that Hitler does not have enough first class flghting men to man the Siegfried line along its 400 miles. It Is estimated that he l^as only 25 divisions at his disposal; that he needs at least 40. Of course he Is expected to have reinforcements by older men and wounded, following the recent manpower draft ordered after the purge. Another highly impdrtant factor in our favor is Hitler has the Russians breathing down his neck in the east. They, too, have already crossed into German territory and have had time to bring up supplies for the final drive; One of the problems of the Allies in France is supply They have advanced 400 miles and now have only one port, Cherbourg, and the beaches from which to land suppliés. The beaches can be used until October when rough weather will interfere. If the Allies are able to use Brest, Le Havre and Antwerp by that time it will shorten the length of the war. As this is written it appears that they may be able to do it. There May Be No V'Day That V-day all of us have been hoping and praying for In Europe may not come about. Germany may not m ^e any surrender. The country may be occupied by the Allies as they advance and a military government set up as we proceed. When we get to ^rlin Hitler and his henchmen may be gone or dead and there may be no government left whiph can surrender unconditionally. ' One German. commentator has said that Germany wlll apply the scorched earth policy to her cities as they re­ treat. We are rather Inclined to doubt it but it would probr ably be a good,way to teach the German the horrors of war —and a just retribution. It might also be a good thing if there were no formal surrender. Just let the Allies occupy the country as they conquer it so that the German could understand once and for all that he had been thoroughly and completely beaten. Mrs. Mark Clark Appear for U. S. 0 .JThe names of flve North Caro­ lina cities In which Mrs. Mark W. Clark, wife of the famed gen­ eral commanding the American Fifth army, wlll speak this month In behalf of the 1944 United War Fund campaign were announced today by Ma]. L. P. McLendon of Oreensboro, state chairman of the United War Fund. Mrs. Clark, whose vtvaclous- ness and effective speaking man­ ner have captivated audiences throughout the country, wlll ad­ dress zone rallies of United War Fund campaign workers In North Carolina from September 18 through 22.' She will appear at Washing­ ton September 18, ^t Fayette­ ville the 19th, at Raleigh at 20th, at Salisbury the 21st, and at Asheville on the 22nd. In each city,-‘Mrs. Clark wlll speak to a luncheon audience of women campaign workers from 18 to 21 counties In the zone, and wlll make an afternoon address open to the general public. Several score workers are expected tb attend each of the luncheon meetings. Arrangements were made for Mrs. Clark’s afternoon public appearances In order to give parents, wives and sweethearts of men serving In Italy or the European area, an opportunity to hear the wife of one of our outstanding generals. The live central gatherings will be followed by smaller rallies In each county just prior to the Perhaps no nation in the world ever engaged in a war of the size of this one, and continued over such a long period of time and enjoyed so much prosperity as our coimtry has. There will be, of course, a gigantic deb't at the end of the war, but the hesources of this country have provided implements for the fighting men, and plenty of food, clothes, and other items of need and comfort. The distribution of things has never been better organized. No army in the world has ever received the care, physical, medical, moral and spiritual as have the soldiers in this war. Never in the history of the world have the soldiers moved in such a high moral and spiritual atmosphere. Thus, when we think of the awfulness of war, we must bring these things in to balance the picture. The losses and sacrifices have been great; we shall continue to pay for the war in years to come, but we have many things on the other side to balance the ledger. Those who are continually predicting the end of the world *and its civili­ sation, and the moral degeneration of mankind are igno rant of history, and they have never seen the. qualities in man which the Sop of Man saw when He was upon the earth. The world Is not going to the dogs; civilization will not decline, and the human race will not degenerate. It Is not built that way; there are qualities in man which will survive all attacks upon manhood and virtue, Some­ where we have read that “Man was made in the image of God", and we have faith in that Image. FOR TIOTOBT BUT WAR BONDS AND STAMPS Miss Estelle McElwee New F S A Supervison Locke Holland, FSA supervisor, announces that effective 10 day of September, 1944, Mrs. Virginia C.

THOSE TIRE INSPECTION RECORDS Keep those tire inspection records until you get your new Mileage Rationing Record form along with your new “A” book, OPA says. Since discontinuance of periodic tire inspection last April, tire Inspection records have been kept primarily as a record of gasoline rations Issued each,»'' automobile, and will no longer Ъе necessary when the new form is issued. Outside the East Coast States, the new “A” baoic will go into use September 22, and In the 17 East Coast States, РеЬгцагу 9. LOOSEN LID ON STOVE RATIONING The rationing of coal and wood stoves to consumers - will end October 15, the War Production and OPA have announced, although rationing of oil and gas stoves will continue. Supplies of coal and wood stoves have grown sufficiently since nation-wide rationing started in Augtist, 1043, to make continued rationing unnecessary. SHOE RATIONING STILL WITH US Civilians cannot hope for an early end of shoe ràtioning, WPB says, unless Imports of hides Increase or unless there is a large cutback in military orders. Hide shortages con­ tinue in spite of a large domestic kill of cows and calves. Heavy civilian and military consumption and decreased imports account for the shortages. RETURNED “G. L JOES” GET JOBS More than 50,000 returned veterans of the present war were placed in jobs during July by the Veterans Employ­ ment Service of the War Manpower Commission, thus mak­ ing a total of more than a half million who have been placed. Employers are offering veterans the cream of the jobs that come within their capacities, W M C says. MORE EDUCATION, MR. VET? If you think you are eligible for education under the “G. I. Bill of Rights”, file Veterans Administration Re­ habilitation Form 1950 with one of these three: 1, the re­ gional office of the Veterans Administration where your discharge papers (C-folder) are filed; 2, a regional office of the Veterans Administration in the State in which the school or college you wish to attend is situated; 3, the ser­ vice for at least 90 days between September 16, 1940, and . the end of the present war or were discharged after less than 90 days because of disability incurred in line of duty, if you were discharged “imder conditions other than dis­ honorable” and if you were over 25 years of age when you entered service or if you were over 25 and can show that your education was interrupted. Between 800,000 and one million of your fellows may eventually get more education under provisions of the “G. I. Bill.” INTO BUSINESS FOR THEMSELVES As many as three million returned veterans may choose to go into business for themselves after the war, according to estimates cited in an article in Domestic Commerce, monthly publication of the Department of Commerce. To help the veteran learn something about small business before he embarks on an enterprise, the Department of Commerce is preparing a series of text books covering small business in many fields. These books will be used for vol­ untary study in the Army Education program and in other branches of the armed services. AND THE WORST IS YET TO COME In appealing to German farmers for maintenance^ of food production, the German food controller admitted tlkil “this will be more difficult than before . . . because every ч, fit farm worker has had to join the fighting forces and.. because the area from which the nation and army are sup­ plied has grown smaller,” according to a broadcast re­ ported by U. S. government monitors. MOVIES HELP TEACH FARM SKILLS Great-grandfather would turn twice in his grave to ' learn that movies are now being used to help teach such fundamental farm skills as horseshoeing, sheep-shearing and repairing of farm machinery—all to speed up the training of wartime farm workers. To help farmers keep old equipment In working order, the U. S. Office of Edu­ cation, Federal Security Agency, has produced films on mowers, grain drills, cultivators, tractors and tow-bottom tractor plows. In addition there are films on horseshoeing, sheep-shearing, community canning and repainting frame buildings. The films are used In vocational agriculture classes, 4-H club ancL Future Farmers of America meet­ ings, extension groups and community gatherings. Pur­ pose of the films is to teach the beginners and to show old-timers new and better ways of doing the% things. ^ THEY’RE PAYING OFF MORTOAGES Farm Credit Administration borrowers with land bank and Commissioner loans repaid four times more than they borrowed during the year ended June 30, thus making farmers’ equities in their farms highest in 25 years, the governor of the Farm Credit Administration reported. Farmers also have used their good farm income to buy War Bonds and to add to their Future Payment Funds in Federal land banks. They can use money In these funds to make payments on their farm loans in les favorable times. If farmers maintain these savings and don't waste them in farm land speculation such as prevailed after the flrst World War, they will be in better position to face recon­ version from war to peace than at any time in the history of the country, the governor declared.

MAYS BROTHERS AT HOME Mr. and Mrs. tíarl Mays have been having a family reunion at their home on Joyner street this week. All three of their eons are at home ta t the flr«t tl^e Late Sc^ed Graini Cost Growers Money With the same land, labor, seed and fertilizer, small grain yields may be considerably hicreased In North Carolhia, if crops are planted at the ideal time, says W. H. Rankin, associate agrono­ mist of the Agricultural Expert ment Station at State College. Records for three years at the Piedmont Test Farm near States­ ville clearly prove the point. Note the following seeding' dates and corresponding average acre yields for oats during the period; Oc­ tober 1, 61.2 bushels; November 1 38.D bushels; and November 15, 26.4 bushels. A delay of forty- five days In seeding the crop brings a 34.8 bushel decrease per acre. With oats at 90 cents a bushel and farmers planting 30 acres, the loss Is $20.88 a day, when he waits 45 days to plant. The barley records at States­ ville for the' three-year period show an average yield of 41 .fl bushels on October 1, 34.9 bushels a month later, and 28 bushels on November 15. The average yield of oats is aibout 50 per cent great­ er than barley when planted on October 1 but the yields are about the same when both crops are seeded November 15. Some years late seeded grains are al­ most complete failures. Growers need to wait later to seed wheat because of the Hess­ ian fly damage. Average yields of wheat at Statesville were 26.2 bushels for October 15, 22.8 for November 1, and 18.1 bushels for November 15. “Seeding small grains on thne is low-costing hisurance for bet­ ter yields,” Rankin says. Plant Small Grains Early, Manure Well The State College Extension Service has conducted a survey to learn how certain farmers produce relatively-higher yields of wheat, oats, and barley than their neighbors and several times the average state yields. It is in­ teresting to note that the reason given by farmers for higher yields are backed up by records at the Agricultural Experiment Station. County Agent W. C. Boyce of Franklin county, for example, reports that his farmers have given three prhiclpal reasons for good yields: good varieties of seed, heavy applications of ferti­ lizer, especially nitrogen; and early seed during September ond October. Other factors mentioned were good seed bed preparation, drilling the seed, application of barnyard manure, planthig be­ hind cover crops of soybeans and lespedeza, and seed treatment. “Last year dry weather pre­ vented many growers from get- thig in their grain on time. How­ ever, it was observed that farm­ ers who planted to a bed of dust obtained an earlier stand and better yields. Idle land can be broken now In preparation for early seeding and this should be done by all means,” Boyce said. “The Hessian fly has caused some damage to wheat and this should be taken Into considera­ tion. Plant oats and barley first and observe the fly-free date in planting wheat.” Boyce expiates that early seed­ ing of grain enables It to get a good root system before the whi­ ter, helps to lessen freeze damage, and gives earlier growth in the spring. He suggests that growers ob­ tain, full supplies of good seed at once and that proper methods of seed treatment be followed. AUCTION SALE* SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1944 B E G IN N IN ^^O A. M.

SYSTEM OF FARMING CAUSES MUCH DEBATEHEW FAULKNER THEORY IS THAT TURNING PLOW SHOULD NOT BE USED ON SOIL To plow or not to plow seems to be a debatable question. ■Inoe the wide circulation of tbe Faulkner theory that the common turning plow Is a cause of soil erosion and an enemy of fertility, several ar­ ticles and pamphlets have been written by agricultural experts refuting such revolutionary de- diuutions. While it Is admitted that plowing has caused dam­ age in some localities, the ut­ ter abolishing ot the plow la not foreseen by theae defend­ ers of an age-old farm imple­ ment. Some months ago agricultural authorities were startled by a new idea in fanning that ex­ ploded right in their faces. It sought to undermine the very system upon 'which American farm practices have developed by abolishing the turning plow and a number of soU methods built around that implement. The surface of the soil would merely be stirred by a disk or other machine. This revolutionary sys­ tem was dropped Into the lap of agriculture by Edward H. Faulk- neri an ex-county agent of El­ yria, Ohio. It had been Incubating for three or four years on some land outside Elyria where he conducted experlment.s. These experiments were what s t a r t.e d the reverberations Otherwise his insistence on such a radical departure from long- approved methods might have been dismissed as the theorizing of a dreamer. But the catch in the situation was that his ideas seemed . t o work. Some of the acres which Faulkner prej»red for crops had a stand of four- foot rye. Others had plain weeds. He ran a disk over this gegeta- tion, cut It to pieces, and cut as much of it into the top inch or two of soil as he could. The way he laid off,the rows and set his tomato plants was the next piece of fanning that set the neighbors on edge.' In­ stead of podwlng a furrow for the tomatoes or digging iholes for the plants, he merly ran hwtvily weighted wagon wheels over the ground and used the packed wheel tracks for rows. Instead of setting the plants upright ac­ cording to orthodox methods he laid them down with the roots in the wheel .tracks. He covered the roots, firmed the dirt by tramping, and left the plants lying. Late in the afternoon the plants began rising toward an upright position and by the next day they were standing straight so anybody’s tomato plants. During 1940 there were so many extremes of wet and dry weather most of the tomato crops in the neighborhood were failures, Faulkner’s tomatoes surprised everybody In that they weighed 17 pounds to the peck measure instead of the usual 15, This brought him a premium of 25 cents on the peck. His sweet potato plants set by the same method matured a crop in half the time required by those of his neighbors — 60 days as against 120. One of his most amazing cropis was string beans. In preparing for this crop he disked down six feet of rye. ' "In many places,” comments Faulkner," so thick a layer of rye covered the surface that the disks did not actually 'touch the ground. The marker "(wagon wheels to lay off rows) was run over the fleld, spacing rows three feet apart. Wherever the marker had ‘walked’ over the straw with­ out even parting it, the straw was parted by hand and the beans were planted on the solid ground, covered with a handful of earth, and left to their fate. The stand of beans was so per­ fect that It was commented upon by trained agricultural men who saw the plot during the succeed­ ing weeks. This indicated to me that a finely worked seedbed was not essential to success.” The bean crop was phenomenal. He got five full pickings during the season, when most bean growers felt that two pickings that season was something to write home about. They also brought premium prices, and produced 200 bushels of market­ able beans per acre, despite the severe weather conditions. What Faulkner did with toma­ toes, sweet potatoes and beaxu, he did with only slight variation of methods with cucumbers, par­ snips, and other crops. He would aboh^ the turning plow for both garden and field crops. Includ­ ing com. While his system won’t, of course, make additional rain, It will give a far better use of the rain that falls. When the turn­ ing plow turns green vegetation (such as rye, weeds, clover) un­ der, It puts most of it 6 to 8 in­ ches below the surface, The crop planted on the plowed ground can’t send its roots down far enough to reach the decaying vegetation and feed on it. Thie act of plowing It under so deep. Instead of disking It In the top Inch or so ot soil, creates a sub- sulface "blotter” which inter­ feres with the capillary move- ment of moisture upward. There­ fore the crop cannot adequately use the moisture already In the ground. The turned-under plant food leaches out and Is washed away In erosion. To emphasize his theory Faulk­ ner asks why it is that during severe droughts cultivated corn In a plowed field wilts and twists, when the weeds in the adjoining fence row are healthy and green. These weeds are growing on ground where other crops of weeds for many years have de­ cayed and left their plant food In the surface of the soli sp suc­ ceeding weed crops could feed on thfem. They are not plowed under and leached away in the loose soil into which air has been ad­ mitted to dry out the moisture. In setting his tomato plants, for example, dlsked-ln rye held the moisture at the surface. He further aided the moisture con­ ditions for those plants by using for a row the packed wheel track Instead of a plowed furrow. In the compressed soli In thé wheel track the moisture rose generous­ ly to the surface by capillary ac­ tion. The decaying rye not only held in the surface ot the soil most of the rain that fell, but was close enough to the surface for the tomato plants to feed upon. The turning plow, Faulkner (Çontlnuéd on pai« 8) Each week The Enterprlae summuiies the war news, both abroad and at home, so'that readers may get a quick, bird’s eye view of important happenings. The battle for Oermany is raging all along the Rhine and the Germans are reported to have ordered the evacua­ tion of 2,000,000 jersons in the Oerman Rhineland in the face of frontal breaches in the Siegfried line and its out> flanking through Holland. Field Marshal Montgomery told his troops in Belgium that the war against the Oermans would be ended this year. He said there was no point in rushing straightaway to Ber­ lin today or this week. “If you first defeat the Oermans or collect them in as prisoners you will make the job easy,’* he added. . Sweeping across Holland in a lightning thrust, the British Second army has'converged with Allied airborne imits in the Rhine valley for a great drive around the Seig* fried into the vital Ruhr. Parachutists which began land­ ing in eastern Holland last Sunday, now linked with the British forces, seem to be aiming a drive through the NiJ* megen-Arnhem gateway to avoid both the Nazi-flooded coastal areas in Holland and the heavily congested Eseen- Cologne-Aachen triangle that faces the American First army on the British right. The main weight of the Allied land assault, however, is battering through the Rhineland on the 20 to 25 miles to Cologne. Other U. S. columns are hitting through the Lorraine gap in new gains below Nancy and closing stead­ ily on Belfort farther below, gateway to southwestern Ger­ many. The Oermans admit that Brest has also fallen and that Boulogne is under heavy pressure. JAPS VNDER ASSAULT XJ. S. marines have taken most of the 12-mlle square island of Pelellu in the Palau group 520 miles east of the Philippines, killing 5,543 Japs In the first four days of fight­ ing. Some 5Ö0 miles to the southwest General MacArthur’s troops were mopping up Morotai island and preparing for a possible invasion springboard to the Philippine island of Mindanao, less than 300 miles to the north. FIGHTING IN ITALY Allied troops in Italy are meeting the same type of sti^ enemy resistance as is seen in eastern Europe. The Ameri­ can Fifth iaces some 25 miles of mountainous terrain be­ fore it can emerge Into the Po valley and the British Eighth is fighting towards Rimini, eastern doorway to the Po val­ ley. RUSSIANS ON THE MOVE The Red army is making an all-out drive to destroy the Germans in the Baltic states and captured more than 2,800 towns in Latvia and Estonia in four days. FINLAND SIGNS TERMS Finland has signed armistice terms which call for with­ drawal to the 1040 frontier, surrender of the ice-free port of Pletsamo to Russia, disarm the army, lease the Porkkala peni^ula and a fairly large land and sea area to Russia for 50 yers and give the Allies ahrdromes hi the south and southwest. GASOLINE SITUATION IS TIGHT The average civilian motorist should expect no in­ crease in his gasoline ration for the next several months, at least not before the end of the war with Germany, the Office of Price Administration says. Civilian stocks of gaso­ line built up last winter have been greatly reduced de­ spite increased imports and record domestic production. Civilian grade gasoline stocks have increased approximately two million barrels in 30 days.

Smith has the best stand of serlcea lespedeza on his farm near Sheffield, I’ve seen In a long time. This seeding was ilot done until July 7. On August 23 the average plant in this seeding on badly eroded ground had over 5 inohes of roots in the ground. This Is what we need to hold sloping eroded' land, that Is to have more roots In the ground. Mr. Smith has also seeded 3 acres to alfalfa following the lat­ est recommendations. This Is a progressive move in the Sheffield section. Robert Lee Seaford has a nice stand of winter peas and vetch in his cotton middles. He sowed his seed the last of August. Most farmers are planning a good amount of small grain this fall. This Is a desirable move es­ pecially, with the feed shortage. Sunrise barley Is a popular crop lu Oavle county and It is a good winter cover crop, Small grains help noticeably in conserving the soli, 'especially if they are sowri on the contour, or sideways to the hill.

Hepler, 19, of Mockfivllie, was assigned to the Third Infantry division alter es­ tablishment of the Anzio beach­ head. He arrived toward eve­ ning cm a'rather dull day for the beacihhead. “Alter a few hours I decided, heck, this war business isn’t bad at all.” He reported alter his return to this country. "There wasn’t muiCh going on. They put me on outpost duty the flrst night. I figured I was going to like war. changed my mind penna- nently the next momiaig. A Oer­ man artillery shell landed close by my foxhole and burled me. From then on I knew war wasn’t fun." Action on the beachhead also fixed firmly the belief that the Infantry is the toughest outAt in the aimy, and Private Hepler doesn’t bar any branch of the service when he states his opin­ ion. "If a man wants to shape up in a rugged branch, tell him to Join the Infantry, the toughest, roughest bunch of flgh'tlne sol­ diers in the world',” he said. Private Hepler was first a rifleman on the line and then became an assistant Browning automatic rifleman for the lat­ ter part of his frontline service. He took part in the • push on Rome and spent two weeks in the Eternal City while his regi­ ment was garrisoned there. "It’s a flne old city with a lot of historic buildings and all that, but I'll take Mocksville,” he com­ mented. He was trained at the Infan­ try Replacement Training Cen­ ter at Camp Wheeler, Oa., and went dverseas as a replacement In the Third Infantry division. A Mc£>owell county farmer ap­ plied excess lime and, after re­ moving large crops of lespedeza and alfalfa without replacing the potash, can grow neither soy­ beans nor corn on the land. ELKIN HOSPITAl GETS DR. WEAVER Dr. C.

The action of the board of trustees of the hospital cannot be confirmed until the meeting of the Western North Carolina Conference of the Methodist Church until it meets in Char­ lotte, October 17, since the Con­ ference Board of Hospitals ^nd Homes must recommend the selection to the Bishop, who ul­ timately makes the appointment. Dr. Weaver has been acting su^rintendent since the death of Rev. W. M. Smith. The Rev, Smith was superintendent for about a year having filled the vacancy left by the death ol Dr. L. B. Abernathy, lyho was super­ intendent from the establish­ ment of the institution. Dr. Weaver is one of the best known ministers in the South- teast, having served for a period of nine years of the Centenary Methodist Church in Winston- Salem. He went from Winston- Salem to Asheville where he was pastor of Central Methodist Church. He served as superin­ tendent of the Oreensboro dis­ trict for one year, and then went to Charlotte as pastor of the First Methodist Church for four years.

First to Berlin Many observers arç e}фressing the opinion that Hitler is throwing all of his available manpower against Russia :to keep that country ' from reaching Berlin before thé Americans and British do. There may be something to that because there can be no doubt but that Russia has suffered far more of the atrocities of the German armies. It has been estimated that the Russians have lost 7,000,000 men In battle but that 18,000,000 civilians were killed. The Russian desire'for revenge must burn deeply and no doubt they would wreack vengeance on Oerman towns should they get the chance. The wholesale burning of civilians, such as at Lublin, where an estimated 1,800,000 were scientifically cremated, is something to make a civil- laed world shudder. You can hardly blame the Russians or other victims of Nazi barbarism if they Insist that the Ger­ man be made to pay for his terrible crimes. State’^ First Reduction In Teaclier lioad The State Board of Education made a start in the right direction last week, when it took action to reduce the teacher load in North Carolina. True, the reduction is not as much as it should be. It will give the average teach­ er only one less pupil in her class room than she had last year. Based on average attendance the average teacher load in 1943-44 was 33V"a pupils. In 1944-45 the load will be 32V2. This is the first time since the State took over the public school system that the teacher load has been reduced at all. In the past the tendency has been to Increase the load, due to lack of funds with which to pay the number of teachers required if the load was made lighter. This year. In order to give each teacher á smaller number of pupils, so that she will be able to give better personal attention to the individual child, it was necessary to provide for 437 more teachers than would have been required if the teacher load had not been reduced. But due to' a falling off in attendance as a result of the' war­ time loss* of students, it is expected that the actual hi- crease In total number of teachers will be only 108 over the number employed in 1943-44. The total teacher allotment last year was 24,355, while the total final allotment for the coming school year is 24,463. The new regulations adopted by the State doard, un­ der which the schools of North Carolina will have their first State-wide reduction in teacher load hi history, are as follows: 1. Elementary allotment shall be six teachers for the fhst 175 pupils in average daily attendance and one ad ditional teacher for each 35 pupils, thereafter. "2. All those high , schools which have been alloted two high school teachers for 1944-45 shall be alloted one additional high school teacher if the average daily at­ tendance for 1943-44 reached 45. “3. Any school losing as many as three teachers in 1944-45 under the allotment for 1943-44 shall have one teacher restored. I “4. For the year 1944-45, all high school teacher allotments shall be restored to the 1943-44 level; provided, that in the case of union schools the allotment does not ex­ ceed the number alloted for 1943-44; and provided further, that such high schools have not already received aid by some other regulation adopted for 1944-45 by the State Board of Educatiop or by a transfer that has been author­ ized by the board.” These regulations are undoubtedly in line with the views of a substantial majority of the educators of North Carolina. But not all of those in the teaching profession agree that this was the most important step the board could have taken to improve our school system at this time. 1 There are many who insist that an hicrease in teach­ ers’ salaries should come ahead of everything else. They contend .that the fh'st essential of a good school is a good teacher, and that the only way to get good teach'ers and hold them is to pay better salaries. An increase in teachers’ salaries should, and, no doubt will be next forward step In public education in this State. Gregg Cherry, Democratic candidate for Governor, is com­ mitted to that policy. And we are confidently expecting him to make a winning fight for the teachers in the next legis­ lature. Then we shall have both a reduction in teacher load and better salaries for teachers—a ,goal toward which Mends of schools in North Carolina have been striving for a long, long time. \ AJOKEADAY Vpset Plans “Mother, do know the kind of a man I want to marry?” “I think 00, daughter, just exactly the kind of man I want­ ed until your dad came along and upset my plans.” His Room The summer boarder asked: “Why Is it that old hog keeps trying to come.

GO ON TO SCHOOL, OI's ADVISE Tlie O I’s overseas who are ushig their spare time to "crack theh: school books” in the hdpe of improving their possibilities when they return to civilian life, advЦe the boys and girls back home to keep on with their schooling. As Cpl. Kermit Greason of Atwood, Kan., put it: “Any t)oy who’s hi high school now had better finish right away. BecauW if he doesn’t fhiish before he’s drafted, or before he takes a full-time job, chances are he never will. That goes for girls too.” ' TOUGH ON BLACK MARKET “GAS” The new “A” basic gasoline ration books to be Issued soon outside the 17 East Coast States are gohig to be hard on the black market in two ways, the OPA says. ’They are printed on a new type of government safety paper al­ most hnpossible for counterfeiters to duplicate, and each book and all coupons it contahis will carry a serial number. With the combination of the serial number and the motor­ ist’s endorsement of his own state and automobile license number it will be much easier for OPA to trace stolen cou­ pons. The serial number enables a coupon to be traced from the plant that printed it to the person to whom it was issued. The endorsement makes it possible to trace an illegal coupon to the person who put it in circulation. Authorities recently arrested four alleged counterfeiters in New York and seized equipment ready to prhit five million counterfeit gasolhie coupons. The Army needs 4,000 nurses immediately, Paul V. McNutt, Chairman of the War Manpower Commission, re­ ported last week. Men wounded in battle must have ade­ quate care no matter how quickly the war ends, he pointed out in deploring the fact that nurse recruitment had slow­ ed up along with a growing belief that the European war is about over. The W M C chairman urged inactive nurses, especially hi outlying communities, to return to nursing duty. HOG CEILINGS TO STAY UP Ceiling prices on live hogs will not be reduced from present levels before June 30, 1945, OPA and W FA have announced. Present ceilings are $14.75 a hundred pounds, Chicago basis, for hogs weighing 240 or less and $14 a him- dred, Chicago basis, for hogs weighhig more, than 240 pounds. WFA also said the support price of $12.50 a hunr dred, Chicago basis, for “good to choice” butcher hogs weighhig 220 to 240 pounds, effective October 1, will con- tUiue until June 30, 1945. ROUND-UP The Deparment of Agriculture says: Buttér supplies for civilians for. the last half of this year are estimated to be 4 percent smaller than in the same period last year and the smallest for this period in more than 50 years ... Civil­ ian supplies of fresh fruit, frozen fruit and canned fruit are substantially larger this season than last, but supplies of canned and dried fruits are smaller . . . A few more weeks of favorable weather will give this country thv. 'ir- gest volume of crops it has ever produced. The War Production Board says: Cities and towns are declarhig “paper holidays” during which merchai^ts use no bags or wrapping paper except for sanitary or prà- tective purposes. . . .

Market All Turkeys As Soon As Finished The Quartermaster Corps is not getting the necessary amount of turkeys for the holi­ day dinners of the armed forces and it Is asking producei's to send their birds to market as soon as they have the necessary "finish.” C. F. Parrish, Bxtension poul- tryman at State College, reports that a number of North Carolina turkeys now have the necessary finish and suggests that they be marketed In an orderly manner rather than be ' held for the Thanksgiving lauon. The total number of turkeys In the United States is relatively large this year and unless they are fed into the markets throughout the season, prices may drop, according to Parrish. Facilities for dressing and stor­ ing the turkeys may not be able to take care of the situation if ths large crop of turkeys Is held too long and suddenly rushed to the market. Parrish also calls attention to the fact that the price celling for turkeys, live weighty will drop Va cent a pound on Odtober 1 and an additional H cent on November I.

BEAD СОАСЯ OXNE McSVER' University of North Carolina Gene McEver, who gained na­ tional prominence in the sport­ ing world a little over a decade ago when he was running rough­ shod over the gridiron opposi­ tion in the south and east as a stellar backfleld performer for the University of Tennessee, this fall, has thrown in his fortunes with the University of North Carolina as head football coach. Although McEver is new as a football coach at Carolina, he is not new to sports fans in the Carolilnas, having served for the past few years as head coach at Davidson college. McEver carries with him to Carolina the admiration and re­ spect of all football followers of North Carolina, and few if any doubt that the football destinies of Carolina are in good hands. It will be recalled that McEver was an outstanding All-America while at Tennessee, and in 1929 he was the nation’s high scorer. Coach McEver has as his as­ sistant, his brother, Macauley McEver, and when they arrived at Carolina they found only one returning letterman on the Car­ olina roster. He was 210 pound Tom Lane, alternate tackle , on last year’s squad. The squad that the brother coaches have at Саго1Ца at this time is described as green and young, but determined a n d scrappy. This is Just the type of football squad that will de­ velop day by day as the coaches bear down in drills. It will pay to watch Carolina on the gridiron this fall. MONUMENTS MAUSOLEUMS B. L.

Carelessness Causes Of Most Farm Fires Every fifteen minutes there Is a farm fire somewhere In the United States, destroying prec­ ious crops, equipment, buildings, and the Nation’s most valuable asset—human life. According to the records,' eight hazards cause elghty-tlve per cent of America’s tarmtlres and all ot these haz­ ards stem from carelessness or failure to create adequate bul­ warks against known fire dan­ gers. The period ot October 8 to 14 has been set as Fire Prevention Week. Farmers have been asked to study their tire hazards and build defenses against them. David S. Weaver, head of the Agricultural Engineering' De­ partment at State College, sug­ gests that farmers consider de­ fective chimneys and flues, the danger of sparks lighting on flammable wooden roofs, and the equipment that protects build­ ings from lightning. He-further suggests that grow­ ers watch for spontaneous Igni­ tion, careless handling of match­ es and cigarettes, careless use ot gasoline and kerosene, defective and Improperly installed stoves and furnaces and faulty wiring and misuse of electricity. The barn is a particularly good place for the starting of a fire. It should be thoroughly checked from every angle and kept clean. ‘‘In fact, the week ot October 8 to 14 Is a good time to do all the fall cleaning for the house, the barn, and all outbuildings and to study the fire prevention set­ up on the farm,” Weaver says.

Tbe background around the 'raila was blurred as by expUulons. It was deduced that thla was a pllotless, Jet-pipopelled plane. But was It an offensive weapon? All doubt was removed when No­ vember, <1943, reconnaissance along the Calais coast showed similar launching platforms. PLATFORMS AHMED AT LONDON Then the sinister discovery was made that all these plat­ forms, numbering 100, pointed In the direction of London. In December, British and nerlcan air forces i>egan at­ tacking Installations until, In early spring, every one had been destroyed. This upset the Nazis* timetable, because it compelled them to begin anew. This time the Germans con­ structed highly camouflaged easily built, less substantial ramps requiring six weeks to set up. The Allies were unable to find most of these until they actually had fired missiles. By the end ot 1043, intelll gence reports were sufficiently detailed so the British could gln detailed defenses. These were divided Into a gun belt, balloon barrage, and fighter- plane zones. These defenses l>e gan to take toll of the robots 24 hours after the first V- l was launched. SPEED JUDGED AOOVRATELY British natural scientists had calculated the robots’ speed rather accuiately—-at between 300 and 400 miles an hour. Chief defense problems were presented by the speed ol the flying bombs, the fact the Germans dften sent thm over In salvos ot 200 In 24 hours, and the height at which they traveled—about 2,300 feet —too low for heavy ack, ack, too high for the light. Nevertheless, defense Improve­ ment« were speedily introduced. Extra cables were hung from the balloons. Th entire gun belt was moved from near London to the coast, so as to give better aiming and allow acli: ack the first crack at the missiles, a tre­ mendous step requiring re-aim- Ing of 600 heavy and 500 Bofors guns, but accomplished in two days. These guns, steadily improv­ ing in performance, shot down 17 per cent in the first week, 40 per cent in the fourth week, and in the final week the highly en­ couraging score of 74 pei’ cent. PLANES DESTROY FLYING BOMBS Meanwhile, fighters began by shooting down 30 per cent of the flying bombs reaching their areas. Greatest difficulty for AMERICAN HEROES BYLEFF the fighters was the speed of the projectiles, necessitating use of the fastest Tempest planes; Spitfires had to dive on the bombs to equal their speed. But the air force destroyed 1,900 ot the'8,000 bombs sent over. This news will disappoint Hit­ ler, because, in Baltic trials, a Oeraian ace flying a captured Spibfire attempted to shoot down flying bombs, and “demon­ strated” to the fuehrer’s satis­ faction that the RAF could not possibly touch them. Regarding the doubtful V-2 weapon, Duncan Sandys, British undersecretary to the ministry of supply, said, fuller informa­ tion will be available when ex­ perts, now inspecting captured launching platforms in the Cal­ ais area, have return^ to Lon­ don. I LOSSES HEAVY It should be remembered, how­ ever, that the V-l was not con­ quered without great sacrifices. British and American air forces lost nearly 450 aircraft, Including many heavy bombers, and 2,900 airmen in attacks on the fiylng-bomb sites, storage depots, experimental stations and transport. Robots caused one casualty a bomb at the start'of the offen­ sive, although this was cut until it took three bombs to cause one fatality. But if Hitler, by his terror weapon, forced the Allies to di­ vert valuable planes, anti-air­ craft crews and great effort, he expended vast quantities of Ger-' man n^aterlals and manpower which could have gone into planes and equipment for meet­ ing tlie west front invasion. BOMB FACTORY DESTROYED For Instance, it was discov­ ered in June that a car factory near Hanover was wholly given over to the manufacture of fly­ ing bomb components. The Al­ lies immediately sent over bomb­ ers and the factory vas de­ stroyed. The Briti^ air giving high credit to the Americans for the willing aid extended. President Roosevelt, in re­ sponse to the personal request of Prime Minister Churchill, gave high priority for shipment of the latest American equipment for use with the British heavy ack ack guns. ■ American Fortresses and Liberators hammered heav­ ily fiy-l)omb targets in Europe, paralleling the British bomber command’s efforts. Final figures show that of more than 8,000 flying-bombs launched, only 2,300, or 29 per cent, reached the London area, MANY FELL IN SEA •Another 25 per cent were Im- p'ferfectly launched or otherwise erratic, many falling ‘ into the sea before reaching England, and flylng-bomb defeneei ac counted for the remaining 46 per cent. ■While the British govern­ ment’s frank disclosures con­ cerning the flying bombs indi­ cate that the main danger from them is over, it still is admitted tihat the dimuiiitive V-1 raids on EnglSnd are possible. It has been discovered that some of the latest bombs have been carried pickaback by Hein- kel planes and launched in the air. These launchings, obviously, still are possible by planes flying froni German airfields, but most Oerman airplanes are expected to be busy with other matters from now on.

MORE ABOUT Farming Theory insists, is responsible for most erosion. Driving out the plant food, farmers resort to unsatis­ factory comm«reial fertilizer. He believes a quick solution to ero­ sion could be effected by abcdidi- ing the plow. He shows by prac tical demonstration how rapid­ ly the most depeleted soil can be restored by incorporating in the surface each season a green cover crop preceding tlie regular crop. By repetition of this practice, he argues, the land accumulates its fertility much faster than it uses it. With his cropping system gen­ erally pursued, Faulkner visual­ izes again bumper crops of 200 or more bushels of com to the acre. The soil, Instead of being washed away to the sea, would be held. It would become deeper and richer as new crops are add­ ed. It is the same process nature used in building up the fertility of the forests and oth«r undis­ turbed land. Faulkner tells ot one mountain sk>pe ot 90 degrees on whicih he saw rank vegetation. As it renews Itself y«if by ye*r, it holds the soil together even on this extremely steep elevation. While he conceeds that the idea needs turtiier Investtgatlon, Mr. Faulkner is convinced that this system will largely eradicate both plant disease ahd plant in- seetf. He believes it will even- tually get rid of weeds. Deep plowing pu,ts some weed seed so: tar under the surface that ilwy don't germinate and emerge aa weeds until two or mon yean later. .

VOLUME XXVII “AU The County News Fo* Everybody” MOCKSVILLE, N. C., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1944 “AM The County News For Everybody”NO. 52 ENROLLMENT OF DAVIE COUNTY SCHOOLS SHOWS LOSS OF 107 PUPILS Schools of Davie county open­ ed with a los£ ot 107 children In achool over the enrollment of the close of the school term last ymr, according to a statement from the office of the Davie couwty board of education. Of the 107 loss eight are in the high school and 09 are in the elementary school. TOe losses are divided equally between the colored and the white schools and it Is thought that most of the absentees are now doing farm work and wlll report to school In a few days. The schools are .now being op­ erated on a short day, opening at 8:30 In the morning and clos­ ing at 1 p. m., to assist the farm­ ers In harvesting thedr crops. However, It Is expected that tJie schools can go on full schedule In a few days and that schools can open laiter in the morning. The 8:30 opening hour seems to necessitate the school buses picking up the flrst children too early In the morning. AU bus routes have been checked by a operarte on and to pick up the children representative of the state board of education and the routes have been laid out according to the requireipents of the state and the office of defense transporta­ tion ol the federal government. Under the new state regulations each bus driver Is required to a regular schedule at a regular time each morning. In case a bus driver does not oper­ ate on schedule parents are urged to report the driver to the principal of the school imme­ diately. In comparison with the other counties it appears that Davie county schools have reached a very big percentage of enroll­ ment for the first week and the cooperation of the parents in Davie county is very greatly ap­ preciated. Parents are urged to keep the children In school every day as there is a very close re­ lationship between school at­ tendance and school progress. Pupils who are not regular in attendance do not receive full benefit of their school training. NUTRITION COMMUTE MAKES PLANS FOR TEACHING COURSE OCTOBER 10 Ten members of the Davie county,nutrition committee met ' Tuesday evening at the home of Mrs. Leslie Daniel to make plans for the teaching of a nutrition course in Moeksvllle. The course will be given October 10 at 7:30 p. m. at the high school and will be taught by Miss Maribelle Ouin, health educator for Davie county. The second class in the course will be taught October 17. Certiflcates will toe awarded those completing the work. Any­ one in the county interested in attending is asked to contact Mrs. Leslie Daniel or Miss Flor­ ence Mackie. La^er in the fall the same course will be offered throughout it^e county, being taught in va­ rious sections during the same week, thus enabling all the women in the county to study nutrition, Plans were made for two mem­ bers to attend the nutrition work shop to be held in Charlotte Oc- taber 6. . . It was reported that the com­ mittee had sponsored a picture, "This, Too, Is Sabotage,” at the local theatre and that 175 per­ sons had seen the picture. During the business session Miss Gattis was elected secre­ tary. Members attending the meet­ ing were Mesdames Margaret Green, c. Prank Stroud, Jr., Charles Erwin, Paul Donnelly, Lorraine Bowden Redden, Leslie Daniel and Misses Annie An­ thony, LaMonna Gattis, Mari­ belle Guin and Florence Mackie.

Look­ ing back over the year we flnd that many conditions have been unfavorable for the fanner, in­ cluding shor;tage of labor and machinery, early summer drought, and excessive rains in August. Somehow though they have pulled through with about average crop. Small grain yields were one of the best on record. Wheat yields from 30 to 40 bushels per acre were reported by many growers. The Increased acreage of” b£Tr- ley in the county is encouraging. The yield obtained from the Sunrise variety will Induce many new growers to sow barley tills fall, Tobacco started off very slow, and until mid July it looked like a very poor prospect, but the ideal growing season later brought the crap out, and good poundage resulted. It has cured well and the prospects look bright for the marketing of a profitable crop. There was con­ siderable hail damage in the northwestern section of the county. Cotton is considered as aver­ age; however, the acreage plant­ ed this year is below norma). The lint this year is good. Re­ cent rains and shortage of la­ bor is preventing the crop from being picked as -fast as it opsns. Dry weather hurt the corn crop to some extent, A cam paign was conducted by the county agent to use extra side dressing, which has increa,sed the yield of corn for many farm­ ers. Scores have told me that they have a bumper crop where they have used extra nitrogen. Hybrid corn Is being grown by several growers this year. It ap- peared to withstand the dry weather much better, and In­ creased yields are expected. Hy­ brid corn is increasing in popu­ larity each year, and will prob­ ably come into general use as more suitable varieties are de­ veloped. Milk and dairy products are short, due to a shortage of labor and feed. Nine, milking m^- (dilnes have been installed with­ in the pafit year to help relieve the labor shortage on some of the larger dairies. This winter will be the acid test for dairy­ men, as the hay crop is below average. Unfavorable weather for the past six weeks has caught many farmers with hay down. On a few farms the loss of hay from wet weather has amounted to over $1,000. The rain, how­ ever, has enabled lespedeza to flU well, and there are prospects for an excellent crop of seed. The high cost of poultry feed, together with low egg and broiler prices, caused the poultrymen to reduce their flocks. As a result, we may expect an acute shortage of eggs this fall And winter. Each week The Enterprise summarizes the war news, both abroad and at home, so that readers may get a quick, bird’s eye view of important happenings. The Nazis are making what observers call a “last ditch stand” all around the rim of Portress Germany. They hope to drag tl^e war into another winter in the hope of getting better peace terms. At the same time the Allies are making determined eiloris to get through or around the Sieg^ied line and overrun Germany bfore winter sets in. Ibis ap* plies in France, German borders, Italy and on the eastern front. Rain and mud have been helping Hitler on the western front, keying the air forces from performing at their ca­ pacity and bogging down the infantry. The Allied estimate of German losses since D-day are around a million men killed, wounded or captured. Many of them, however, were inferior foreign troops which the Nazis had pressed into military service. It is estimated that Hitler has less than half of this number to defend his “West Wall.” ' Nevertheless, there are more comments that the war against Oermany is not over yet and that it may last until next spring. ^ American troops have been issued their win­ ter uniforms AIR BORNE UNIT LOSES The gallant British First Air-borne Division was with­ drawn from the pocket west of Arnhem last Monday night. Some 2,000 were evacuated by assault boats brought to them by two British-Polish regiments on the South bank. They left behind 1,200 wounded and another 6,000 killed or captured. The Germans were thus given a local victory and the Siegfried line must now be attacked frontally, it is stated by observers. The stand of the parachutists, who fought for eight days and nights, allowed the allies to secure a firm hold on the big bridge over the main stream of the Rhine at Nijmegen. BALTIC END NEAR Four Russian armies are rapidly bringing the Baltic campaign to a close. The Oermans are reported evacuat­ ing Riga, capital of Latvia. Capture of the Baltic states will free about a million Russian troops for the impending drive into East Prussia. The battle for Warsaw, now nearly 60 days old, has shown no official change and it appears that the Oermans have been able to keep tlie Russians from making any advance of consequence. FIGHTING IN PACIFIC American carrier planes have forced the Japs to with-' draw their naval forces from their anchorages in the Philip­ pines, Admiral Nimitz reports, Since the attacks began on September 8 American fliers destroyed 906 Jap aircraft and sunk or damaged 149 ships in the Philippines area. Manchuria has also had its third raid by Superfort­ resses Tokyo sayin gthat 70 struck the heavy industrial area last Tuesday. STARES AND QUESTIONS W ORRY VETS While modern siigery and medical care are skillfully restoring soldiers’ bodies and morale is being strengthened by reconditioning programs in Medical Department Hos­ pitals, “all this effort is being seriously Interefred with when disabled soldiers are singled out by stares and prying questions of the pubhc,” warns Major General Norman T. Kirk, surgeon general of the Army. BUTTER SUPPLY DOWN, DEMAND UP Americans will not have as much butter as the want this year, primarily for two reasons—the supply is down and the demand is great, the War Food Administration says. Average per capita supply before the war was 16.7 pounds and this year it is 11,9 pounds. More people aie eager to buy butter today than ever before, and in the face of Increased demand, production has declhied while five (Continued on page 4) PAGE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

And, like 45,000 other men and women of the Southern Railway System, he is mighty busy these days. Busy . . . because the Southern is carrying the greatest transportation load in all its history. Busy. . . because every Southern railroader is working harder than ever before to do a vital war job that is helping to speed iinal Victory. Busy . . .

SBBtи The Political Campaign with the destiny of this nation and of the world hang­ ing in such a precarious balance, many thoughtful people of both major parties expressed the hope.that the American political campaign this year would be confined to a discus­ sion of Issues and problems. In the beginning of the cam­ paign it appeared that this strange political phenomenon might take place. But events of the past week have shown that such will not be the case. Both candidates for president have taken oft the gloves and, to the Intense joy of their followers, have begun to make pure political speeches. Both are persuaded that this is the way to win votes. • No doubt the candidates are right and know it is the kind of a campaign that we, the people, want. In politics we hunger, not for some un­ derstanding of what we face in the future, but for a “fight­ ing” speech that will take the hide off the opposition, makes us shout and forget our troubles. At the same time such a time-honored campaign enables the candidate to avoid the inflnitely-harder and more dangerous task of discuss Ing issues. Look what happened to Wendell Willkie and Henry Wallace when they spoke their minds about issues. Both candidates have agreed basically on two things; First, that everybody should have a job after the war and secon dthat this country should be a member of some kind of world organization to preserve world peace by,force if necessary. While agreement in principle on these two ob­ jectives is something" to be devoutly thankful for, the rub comes In deciding how to accomplish them in a democratic country. It was on these subjects, with their tortuous rami­ fications, that we had hoped the candidates would be urged to express their considered and extended opinions instead of being encouraged to indulge in “politics as usual.” All of us know that we cannot afford another war nor another calamitous depression. Two wars have already killed many of the cream of modem civilization virith the slaughter not yet over and help bring communism and fascism into being. A post-war depression would create an atmosphere for the attempt of communist or fascist meth­ ods in this country. Maybe we just want our political leaders to give us a good time dui-ing election and we will attempt to solve our problems in between times. In discussing the recognition In this country of the danger of communism or fascism should we have a post-war depression, Charles and Mary Beard in their latest excellent book, “Basic History of the . United States,” state: “That such a turn in American affairs would be dis­ astrous to civil liberties and the democratic processes of constitutional government was admitted by all citizens loyal to the American heritage. The very thought of It in­ spired leaders in business, industry, organized labor, and organized agriculture to great and concerted efforts in studying post-war problems and in planning measures for grappling with them by associaiional and cooperative un­ dertakings, private and public, designed to maintain full production, furnish adequate employment, raise the stand­ ards of life throughout the nation, and sustain the Ameri­ can spirit.” A JOKE A DAY War Special Man; “What’s the difference between the blue-plate special and the whlte-plate special?” Walter: “The whlte-plate spe­ cial Is flye cents extra.” Man: “Is the food better on the whlte-plate special?" Walter: "No, but we have to Arasih the plates.” Teacher: "Who oan tell me №hat agriculture Is? All right Xhomas.” Thomas: "Well It is about the same as farming, only In larm- ing you really do It.”' Wife: “Why all that bad'lan- juage, Henry?” Husband: “It's my razor. It won’t cut at all.” Wife: “Don’t be silly, It out the linoleum fine.” Soldier Urges Church Going Dear Mr. Fink: I wish I could have attended the meetings at my old home church Center during the re­ vival. Yet I was compelled to leave for camp just before the meetings began. Since I came back to camp I feel rather lone­ some. I miss my wife and baby so much. Our baby said “Dad­ dy” for me while I was at home, and I guess I just realized that I had a son looking for daddy to return when the war Is over. I love both my child and my wife so much I write to them every day when it is so I can. I also receive a letter from my wife almost every day. We are having to work pretty hard, but I don’t mind it at all, If it will get the war over quick­ er. Most all of the boys I wa.s with three months ago are over­ seas now. I enjoy reading the little paper you are sending me very much, and I know the other follows enjoy reading it also. The prayers that come from back home do the boys In service more good than anything else. There are a lot of boys across the seas who never get a chance to go to preaching, and it takes the prayers of the ' Christians back home to keep them going. I long for the time to come when I can return home to my wife and child and my church, where I can attend the services every Sunday as I used to do. I wish so much that all the people around Center would attend ohurch every Sunday. It would make me feel better U they did. This makes U letters I have written today and I am pretty tired, so I will ring off and get some .sleep. Sgt. J. Clay Tutterow. P. S. I wish you would take this to the paper and have it published.«■ The honeymoon Is over when he takes har off a pedestal and puts her on a budget. Cpi.

MORE ABOUT WAR NEWS per cent of the American supply is going to Russia, mostly for use in hospitals. While milk production Is higher than before the war, a greatetr proportion of milk is going into fluid milk, cheese, evaporated milk and milk powder. No manufacturer will be required to set aside and butter for Government purchase in October or any succeeding minth until spring, when production will rise seasonally. OIL STOCKPILE IS GETTING LOWER The Nation’s stockpile of crude oil in storage tanks has been depeleted at the average rate of 2,500,000 barrels a month this year, and now is only slightly above the mini­ mum required to keep re,fineries in uninterrupted opera­ tion, the Petroleum Administration for War reports. Al­ though gasoline stocks are at pre-war levels, only about half is for civilian use, compared to 90 per cent available for civilian use in 1941. PRESSURE CANNERS NOW “FRffED” Distribution of pressure canners was released from all controls by the War Pood Administration September 21. Production of canners for the first nine months of 1944 is estimated at 40,000, compared to 05,000 In 1942. WFA expects manufacturers to contiue on into 1945, thus having canners on the market for spring and summer vegetables. BE CAREFUL—AND PATRIOTIC! Because home accidents tha killed 6;000 workers last year seriously impeded the war effort, the Federal Security Agency endorses these safety suggestions; Walk—don’t run, especially on stairways; don’t carry heavy loads on stairways; dont let. children plan on unprotected stair­ ways; don’t let floors become slippery or cluttered; never leave soap in bathtub and use non-skid mat to prevent slipping; keep utensil handles away from edge of stove; never touch an electric fixture and a grounded metal ob­ ject at the same time; disconnect electric appliances when not in use; don’t smoke in bed; keep pillows out of babies’ beds, keep pins,' needles and shaps tools away from child­ ren; keep garage doors open when starting car; and use short ladders instead of stools, chairs or boxes in reaching for high-places. A BIT OF HOME IN FOXHOLE OR PX American fighting ni^n in this war “are getting every food nutritionists say is necessary to keep them in top physical strength,” declared Lee Marshall, Director of Distribution, War Food Administration. “In addition to this,” he said, “they get a share of ice cream, the turkey, the soft drinks, the candy bars—in fact, the biggest amount of home we can crowd into a barracks, a fovhole or a PX.” To make this possible, American agricultural production has been Increased roughly 40 per cent over pre-war levels, he pointed out. ( SAVES TRAINLOAD OF PRISONERS When the Nazis recently tried to ship back to Ger­ many a trainload of persons of various nationalities who had been imprisoned in Belgium for underground activi­ ties, they were thwarted by the delaying tacties of the Bel­ gian railroad engineer, who acted upon Instruction from he Belgian undergroud. With prisoners packed in cattle cars so thickly it was impossible tfor anyone to sit down, the train started. Using various ruses, the engineer mana­ ged to go only 15 miles in 24 hours, despite threats of Ges- iiapo men with machine guns who stood at his side. Finally the train stoped and the German authorities de­ cided it was better to let everyone go free rather than trouble with them any further. , “LIKE CHASED ANIMALS” ^ ^ With the beginning of the Nazi collapse in Fraxiix;, he Germans, busy trying to save their own necks, turned their Dutch laborers loose, according to a correspondent for Aneta, official Netherlands news agency. He said that these men “like chased animals, afraid that the hunt is not over . . . introduced themselves 6ften under assumed names, and as they recount their experiences under the, Nazis, they look around, shifty-eyed, as if to make sure?^ I that no Gestapo agent is listening.” All are hungry for' news of relatives. “They are eager tor someone, anyone, to point out a destination in life for them after their years of being tossed about Europe.” ROUND-UP OPA says: Apricots at retail will sell for approximate­ ly five cents a pound less than they did last season. . . . The retail price of smoked, mild-cured salmon will be in­ creased four or flve cents a poimd. . . . Non-leather shoes with rubber soles have now been freed from rationing. . . . eBcause of a short crop and big demand by the armed forces, cranberries will soon be brought under price con­ trol for the first time, and highest retail ceilings are ex­ pected to be approximately 40 cents a pound, high enough to compensate growers for their short crop. . . . So few bi­ cycles are on hand, they have been removed from ration­ ing. The department of agriculture says: Twenty-eight Liberty ships have been named by State 4-H club grouprs. . . . Tractors and horses now divide the pulling job of American farm just about “-50-50.” To alleviate losses to apple growers caused by the re­ cent hurricane, the war food administration will buy 5M cars of apples in North Atlantic seaboard states to be used^ in institutions and for school lunch programs. . . .

Winter Hays Give Needed Roughage Mixtures of small grains and winter legumes harvested for hay provide an excellent source ot roughage for livestock, says Enos Blair, Extension agronomist at State College. They give more hay than any of the crops plant­ ed alone and are more palatable. "T he grains prevent bedding down and excessive tangling of the legumes, while the hollow stems m ake t he hay easier to cure,” Blair point« out . “The legumes increase t/lie percentage of the protein In the hay. These mixtures m ay be moderatelly grazed In the fall, winter, and spring, and still make a fairly good crop of hay.” The agronomist explains that Mrs. Sallle Allen and Mrs. Lester Young sp ent' Thursday afternoon In Winston-Salem. I'm not knocked out often and, when I ann, it takes a terrific wal­ lop. Even then I COME BACK FAST! Thanks for your patience when something beyond our control In­ terrupts your electric service. I get back to work as fast as our all- weather trouble shooters can mak« emergency repairs. Yours obediently, REDDY KILOWATT. DUKE POWER COMPANY there Is an almost endless n u m ­ ber of mixtures that can be sown but that the general rule Is to sow more than a full seeding of grains with two-thirds of a full seeding of winter legumss. As to seeding date, experience shows that mixtures which do not contain wheat should be sown September 1, If Intended partly for grazing, or about October 1, If sown mainly for hay. Those mixtures that contain wheat should be sown, November 1 to 15 because of the Hessian fly. Blair recommend-s 300 pounds of 4-10-6 fertilizer per acre for hay crops and a like amount of 6-3-6 where the grower desires both grazing and hay. In either case, the crops will need about 150 pounds of nitrate ot soda per acre the latter part ot Febru ary. “The seed bed .should be pre­ pared by discing and harrowlni and the seed put In with a grahi drill, If iMsslble, otherwise by harrowing," Blair says.

Combat credit—the number of kind of medals he has re­ ceived for his soldiering. 4. Parenthood credit—which gives credit for each dependent child under 18 years up to a limit of three children. The army says this credit sys­ tem is the result of opinions ex­ pressed by the soldiers them­ selves because: Thousands of them were inter­ viewed here and abroad to learn how they thought discharges should be granted. VALVES LATER But the value of the point credit«, will not...be__announced until after the European war ends. But even if a man had all four credits—and the highest possible number of points for each credit—it is no guarantee he would be discharged after the war with Germany. The army will flrst consider whether that indlvid'ual soldier is stai needed for the continu­ ing war against Japan because of шве врееШ abiUtj «г tor would be kept in the u m y . Here’s what will happen after Oermany goes down; Some troops will be kept in Eu­ rope as an occupation army— some—from Europe and the United States—will be sent to the Paciflc for the war against Japan. All of this will Involve shift­ ing' troops and supplies, reor­ ganization of some units, and a reduction in the total size of the army. In that process some troops will be considered sur­ plus on the basis of the credit system outlined above. Those considered surplus will be sent to surplus pools in this country. Into those pools also will go soldiers from other war theatres, such as the Paclflc. Two things should be remem­ bered here: , 1. A tremendous amount of shipping will be used In trans­ porting troops from the Euro­ pean theatre to the Paciflc the­ atre, To this will somewhat de­ lay getting troops back from the war in Europe. 2. Troops in the Paclflc area will be sent back to be dis­ charged. They will be rated also MO0MUiiff to the eiMttt «ystan, but with this understuHling: Paclflc area troops will not be aent home, no matter what their diaehai«e credit rating, until re­ placements have been sent in to take their places. So, their dis­ charge may be delayed. And this should be remem­ bered: Troops in this country, who have never served abroad at all, will figure in the discharge system. For Instance; Their length of service and the number of chil­ dren dependent upon them may be a large fa<'.tor in their dis­ charge. Bi4t from the various pools of surplus meii thiese soldiers- about-to-be-dlscharged the men WiU be sent to what the army calls "separation centers." It Is from these centers, al­ ways closest to their homes, that the men will be sent home.
