' ; ' DAVIE FARMER USES HIS HEAD TO INCREASE PROFIT ON PIGS Raleigh—« . C. Boger of Mocks ville, Davie county, has proy- «d the truthfulness of the oid flaying tihat the farmer may be down but he Is never out. liast fall when plga were sell ing at $1.60 at piece In his sec tion, Boger lound himself with 15 shoats and no chance of sale among his neighbors. Did he de cide to quit the hog business? The answer was an emphatic “NO” ispeUed wltih capital let ters. Boger had been raising hogs M d mule colts for a number of years and he was not the man to quit when conditions were against’ him. I Ootmty Agent George Hobson of ,tihe State College Extension Service says that Boger designed some self feeders out of scrap lumber and «put his ^oats on feed about December 15, when ■they averaged about 80 pounds each. Boger’s record shows that they consumed 100 bushels of corn at $1.50 a bUshel and $70 worth of protein supplement, consisting of equal parts oi soy bean meal, cottonseed meal, and fldi meal When the hogs were killed and dressed at home, and sold on ■the local market at 20 cents a (pound, tihe return was slightly over $600, The total cost of feed, ■pigs, and extra labor was about $300, according to Boger. The (failure of last fall had been turn ed into a successful farm enter prise. “If we had more men with Bogers foresight, the meat short age would not be nearly so great as It is,” Hobson saya.

Only a generation ago there could have lieen but one outcome'-crop shortage and food scar city. Nature aUows scant time tor planting when the warm sun waits tiU late May or June before drying the soggy soU. Horses are too slow and tire too quicidy to get the job done then. But the farmers remember May ot 1943-only two years agO'-when their fast, untiring ^ tractors averted crop taUure. Then, too, rains flooded die fields and the month was all but spent before ftey could go in on the land and plant from dark to dark, and longer. Many planted around the clock, working in two or three shifts. They made one ot the ¡greatest crops in History. In today’s war-torn world-with hunger and disease already stalUng many peoples-even one major crop failure could bring famine. Hiia is why die sound ot tractors and planting ma- chteery waa heard, day and ni^t, from the Plains states to the Eastern seaboard-why head- li^ts stabbed die darkness over the fields. America’s farmers are doing it again, in spit* ol an unprecedented combination ol adverse cir- cumstances—bad weather, shortages ol machines and shortages ol manpower. For the second time In three years, they are relying upon their trac tor-powered machines to help rescue large area* ^ of the world from catastrophe.

WANTED'-'PSYCHOLOGISTS FOR PEACE Are the Intellectuals capable of making instruments of peace—or is our difficulty a lack of intellectuals? We trained leaders for our armed forces—land, sea, and air. They have demonstrated what training, discipline and unification of .forces can accomplish. There have been a few misfits, but on the whole, our military leaders have done a gi^at and successful Job. But can we say as much for our diplomacy? and, when we talk of diplomacy we must Include the thinking and the spirit of the American people, especially as they are represented in our State Department, and in the Congress. Cordell Hull won the praise and confidence of the Amer ican peole, and he deserved them. But one man Is not the w!hole of the political and diplomatic set-up of the country. If our political and diplomatic leaders fall in their undertakings it is the fault of the American people as a whole, because of their Insistence upon a policy of selection which does not take merit and ability into con sideration. As long as we insist upon sending men to represent us in government because they are “jolly good , fellows”; “back slappers”; “singers of Hillbilly songs,” or men who will open the pork barrels to political friends,” we must not expect our diplomats and other representa tives of government to cope successfully with world prob lems. We would not send our children to schools and colleges with men so equipped, yet here. In a field in which the destiny of the nation and the world are at stake, we often select men who are merely strongly partisan or adept in backslapplng or kissing babies. The truly great ' men In government have a most difficult role—the strug- . gle to maintain their high principles against glides of expediency and the greed for gain. Plant Soybeans For Cheaper Hog Feed An acre of soybeana, planted in early April, will iurnlah graz ing for a litter of spring pigs irom late June until fall. ThU acre will produce three times as much leed as the same acre planted to corn alone. Fertilize the acre of soybeans and tihe amount of feed produced will be still further increased and help to produce pork at a cheap- ' er cost per pound. Livestock specialists at State college Insist that grazing crops for hogs iurnlah the cheapest feed obtainable and that hogs In Bastern Carolina can be grazed for about 10 to 11 months in the year. Ii lespedeza is seed ed in small grains at this time. It will give exceptionally good grazing for late summer. The Biloxi, Tokyo, and Woods Yellow varieties ol soybeans are recommended for grazing in the eastern half of the state, by Ex tension Service specialists. In the western half of the state, the ' beana can be cut and carried to the hogs, if grazing is not preferred. The soybeans should be plant ed in rows about two feet apart • and Bhen cultivated 'twice to keep down grass and weeds. They are ready for grazing when 12 to 15 inches high. Fertiliza tion gives earlier grazing and more grazing per acre. "Test show that good pigs, weighing from 50 to 100 pounds, will gain better than a pound a day on green soybeans when fed only one or two large ears of corn a day along with a simple mineral mixture," the specialist say. A minwal mixture can be made of 1 gallon of ground lime stone, 1 gallon of hardwood ashes, and 1 quart of salt; or 10 pounds of ground limestone, 10 pounds of steamed bone meal and 5 pounds of salt. BACK THE ATTACK — WIT« WA» Reduction Indicated In Meat Supplies Raleigh — Meat supplies for civilians this year will fall con siderably below the record amount in |944 of 147 pound« per person, the N. C. Department of Agriculture has been inform ed by its Washington office. These supplies may be only 128 to 133 pounds per person which is still above the 126 pound average for 1935-39. Mk»t of the decrease will be In pork, with over-all meat supplies ex pected 'to be larger in the late fall following the seasonal in crease in slaughter. The present large egg con sumption is expected to continue through 1945, possibly reaching 355 to 360 eggs per person. Chicken supplies will be slightly over 20 pounds per capita, about 2 1-2 pounds less than In 1944. If military irequirements do not Increase much over 1944, civil ian turkey supplies will be about the same aa in the past two years. , On a milk equivalent basis, civilian supplies of all dairy products in 1945 will be about the same as In 1943, but a trifle below 1944. Most of the reduc tion will be in butter. Fluid milk, oream, cheese, condensed milk, and ice cream will be about the same,'while civilians may get more cottage chee^, evaporated milk, buttermilk, dried skim milk and chocolate milk. The civilian supply of all faits and oils will be about 42 pounds per capita in 1945, about six per cent below lu t year. Smaller lard and butter production plus large non-oivUlan requirements are :the chief cause. Market supplies of all fre:^ and p'rocessed fruits ancl vege tables may be a little less In 1945 than in 1944. Labor shortages In the woods and at the mills is the bottle neck of lumber and pulpwood production, says Dean I, O. Sohaub of State College. « Ò M g F U M ! eOOD THING ABOUT HSJ0B.O..IRUN ^mSJQ ^ M AH f INTERE9TIN6 PEOPLE!'^ Merchants Convicted Of Short Weight Raleiglh-^x eastern North Oarollnai merohonits have been convicted for violaitiona of ithe ataite weights and meaisuras law.

L. Gwyn, caittte onarkeiting specialist with the state department of agrioultuire, said recently 'thait "much con' fusion has >been ithrown into caibtle-marketlng circles during the paist 10 daya because state butchers, ih'avlng used up thC'lr monthly killing quotas, were itemporairily ouit of the m'arket for additional cattle.” Gwyn declared 'that this sit uation has had the effect of congesting livestock auction markets ithroughout North Car olina and creating lan entirely false impresslon-Hthat >the supply of beef cattle is exceeding the demand. Producers land feeders of cat' tie might ibe of the opinion that a severe break >in Uve-catUe prices is 'likely to occur and ithe proper procedure would be to ru ^ ithelr cattle to market laa rapidly las possible, Owyn ex- pl'ained. “As a miatter of fact, there la no surplus of ^ ttle ;,nw da ithero likely ito be one any itlme <soon,” he said. Owyn pointed out <fuiither that cattle, capable of grading' A or better are In lactiv« demand at prevailinK ceiling prices. Ac cdnUng Ito him, imtbaidy of BO cents per (hundred iwunda ia now On The Home Front SOMEÍ JULY POINTS VALUES CHANGED Point values for margarine and canned fish will be Increased, points for cheese will be reduced, and the point values of nearly all meats will be unchanged during the rationing period beginning July 1 and ending July 28, OPA said. The point value of butter will remain un changed. A two point Increase in the margarhie point value, from 12 points to 14 points a pound, Is necessary because of the decreased supply and to Improve distribu tion. Rationed canned fish, with present point values ranging from four to nine points a pound, will be Increased two and three points a pound, depending upon the kind, because of reduced supplies for civilians. Although the bver-all supply of cheess will be some what smaller during the third quarter, new point values for the July rationing period will be from two to four points a pound lower than during June to prevent loss of soft, perlsOiable varieties from spoilage. Point values of hard cheeses such as Cheddar and Blue, were reduced four points. The only fresh or cured meat point value changes for July are Increases of one and two points a pound for seven fat pork cuts. NEW REGULATIONS ON USED CARS Used 1942 automobiles will be removed from ration* ing on July 2, 1945, OPA announced. The principal rea son for the rationing of used 1942 cars-4hat they were the best automobiles in the country aside from the new 1942 cars in stock and so should be restricted to essential users—no longer holds true. Many of these cars have been driven by public officials, doctors and war workers who travel long distances and, consequently, the cars have had more mileage and more hard usage than some earlier models that have been driven fewer miles. Therefor, con tinued rationing Is unnecessary, OPA said. The four per cent decrease on used passenger car cell ing prices, scheduled for July 1, will not affect the war ranty allowance when this allowance amounts to $100 or less, OPA said. The July 1 reductioii, announced June 7, is the first of a series of four per cent reductions to be made once each half year, reflecting normal depreciation In value, OPA explained. 2,500,000 CAR TIRES IN JULY Borrowing 833,334 tires from inventories to meet hot weather replacement needs, WPB allocated 2,500,000 pas senger car tires to OPA for civilian motorists during July, OPA announced. “The 2,500,000 tires allocated to OPA for rationing should meet the immediate requirements of the most essential drivers,” Max McCullough, deputy ad ministrator for rationing,” said. “Only B and C ration holders are eligible for new tires and these drivers, as well, as A-oard holders, who must depend solely on their pres ent tires, must continue to conserve their tires In every way possible. Motorists whose tires can be recapped are not eligible for new tires and should not apply.” CAR AND TIRE CONSERVATION In an appeal to passenger car owners to conserve their automobiles. Col. J. Monroe Johnson, director of the Office of Defense Ttransportation, warned that it will be at least three years before many millions of private car owners and prospective car owners who want new automobiles will be able to get them. Colonel Johnson said this fact “has not been generally realized,in the first rosy flush of enthusi asm over the limited resumption of passenger car produc tion.’ Although It is expected that 240,000 passenger oars will be built this year. Colonel Johnson commented that this'number will replace less than one per cent of the na tion’s automobiles. “None of the cars produced In the near future will go to the average driver,’ he added. “They’ll go, instead, to the most essential drivers—doctors, police, taxi drivers, war workers and other. And they will be short—far short—of meeting the need in these fields.” Pointing out that the foundation of a good recapped tire is a good casing, the Office of Defense Transportation outlined rules for the care of tire casings before and after recapping. Proper care of the original casing, the ODT said, is most important because the production of com plete casings is the real bottleneck in the flow of tires to users. The rubber tread of a tire does not add greatly to the strength of the casing but does cushion the fabric against damage from minor Irregularities of the road. Tires that have not been abused by overloading, over spreading, low air pressure, or damaged by running over curbs or sharp obstacles in the i^oad will be suitable foi; recapping. EXTRA CHARGES ON TUBE REPAIR CAN BE ADDED Service stations and other tire repair shops that are prevented from making additional charges for'extra serv ices connected with tube repair jobs only may now apply for permission to make additional charges, OPA announced. This action, effective June 30, 1945, applies to such serv ices £w pick-up and delivery, mounting and demoimtlng. of tire and tube from wheel, and road service for emer gency repair Jobs Involving tube repairs. ipayaUe to feedeia produdng cattle grading A or better and weighing 600 pounds or over.

C. ADVICE GIVEN TRUCK FARMER There Is an abundance of good vegetables beginning to flow to the various produce auction mar kets situated throughout North Oarollna, and housewives should be on the alert to purchase and can these commodities as a bridge over the' meat shortage. This is the opinion voiced by pon Matheson, who is fruit and vegetable marketing specialist with the State Department of Agriculture. He has advised pro ducers Ut produce their products for market in the most attractive manner possible and to have them sold when they reach the height in quality. ‘‘The farmer who keeps the consumer in mind Is the man who makes the most money In the long run,” said M!atheson in pointing out that housewives this summer are more dependent on fresh vegetables than ever be fore. With the great demand for vegetables, Matheson eAiphaslzed farmers who are alert to the opportunity can establl^ strong and permanent markets for their products for future times when the supply may be greater than the need, Matheson said that the early commercial white potato grow ers of the Northeastern North Carolina counties are Just bring ing to a close one of the best seasons on record. This season’s crop was of exceptionally good quality; care was taken in grad ing and packing for market; and the demand has remained strong on all markets. He reported sihlp ments to this date ot approxi mately 6,000 cars and 2,000 trucks.

FINE QUALITY PEACH CROP There is a fine quality crop of peaches in the Sandhills area this season, and it will begin moving in volume to markets ■throughout the United States within the iifext week, according to Don Matheson, fruit and vege table marketing specialist with the State Department of Agrl- cultnre. “Housewives e x p e r 1 enclng shortages in other foods should use their canning sugar allot ments for putting up delicious peaches grown here In North Carolina and superior to any produced anywhere else In the world," said Matheson. Pointing uot that the com mercial apple crop was ruined by cold weather in most localities In Western North Carolina, Matheson said “ it is peaches, blackberries, or nothing this year." In the Hamlet section, general harvesting of Hlley peaches will begin June 28 and in Candor on July 2. Marketing of Elbertas will get under way in Hamlet on July 5 and in Candor on July 0. Matheson reminded prospec tive buyers that the peach crop is about 10 days earlier than usual, and that they should not delay making purchases.

What has caused my hybrid corn to show striped appearance on the blades? A. You are evidently using seed from the crop which you grew last year and this should not be done, says Dr. Emerson Collins, In charge of Extension agronomy at State College. New hybrid seed must be bought each year. ’The hybrid corn is produced by a series of crosses with definite ■parents. When the seed are planted a second year, they break down into all kinds of combina tions and yields are not satis factory. Q. What should I do to keep green moss from growing in my yard? A. ’The presence of moss in your yord indicates an acid soil, a ipoor soil, or both conditions, says John H. Harris, hortlcultiiral exten- soln specialist. He suggests that you send a sample of your soli to the Soils Department of N. C. State Department of Agriculture, Raleigh, for an analysis and re commendations as to liming and fertilization. Your county agent will be glad to give you directions for (taking ithe soil sample and mailing it. Q. How can I get rid of Ber muda grass? A. Tills grass, often call Joint or ,wlre grass, cannot tolerate contlnous i^iade and It can, therefore, be controlled by plant ing close crops for two years, says Dr. Roy Lovvorn, in charge of forage crops for the Agricultural Experiment Station. Cowpeas, crotalaria, or velvet beans can be grown during to'e summer and a m ixtoe of small grains and vetch during the winter. If the land Is turned rough In the fall, many roots will freeze during the winter. Chinch Bug Threat To 1945 Corn Crop Chinch bugs, found firat In Pitt and Mecklenburg counties, In 1943, spread to 25 counties In Noth Carolina last year and may cause exceptionally large damage this year to the corn crops grown near small grains. If weather conditions are favor able for the spread of the in sect pest. ' Thirty thousand pounds of Dlnitor dust was used last year by 392 farmers in fighting the chinch bug on 4,698 acres of corn valued at $147,000, accord ing to J. Myron Maxwell, Exten sion entomologist at State col lege. Losses to small grains and corn from over-wintering bugs were estimated at about $70,000 while the nymphs of the first generation bugs attacked about 14,000 acres of corn with a loss of about $309,000. When Maxwell was asked how murh damage the rhlnoh bug would probably cause In North Carolina this year, he parried the question by saying that he cohld better answer It along in April when the bugs begin to put In their appearance. He estimates that growers will probably need about 100,000 pounds of the dl- nltro dust this year to protect their corn with a barrier estab lished between the grain -and the corn, When the bug touches this dust, he immediately dies on contact with It, Some farmers conducted out standing demonstrations as to the value of . the Dlnltro dust last year. Where a corn joined a small grain crop, the grower established a barrier of tlie dust one Inch wide and one-fourth Inch deep between ithe first and second rows pf corn. The first row of corn was destroyed by the bugs while the remalnedr of the field made a full crop. BUY WAR BONDS — STAMTSi Farm Accidents Take Heavy Toll A tree falls on a farmer dur« Ing logging operations In the woods; a can of kerosene ex plodes as a person attempts to build a fire in the kitchen stove; a child playing with matches sets her clothes on fire and is burned to death, severely injur ing an older brother who at tempts to help her; a woman trips on a broken step and faljs to her death;. revolving parts of a tractor catch the clothes of the operator, severely injur ing him; an electric circuit with a too heavy load causes a “short” and burns a barn filled with feed and livestock. All of these accidents, and others like them were reported In North Carolina newspapers recently and will continue, says Prof. David S. Weaver of State college, unless all rural people carefully consider safety condi tions and do something to cor rect the hazards that exist on the farm. , Older men ftnd mor« young people and women are doing heavy work on the farm than ever before. They are working longer hours with equipment that cannot be kept In the best of condition. Fatlgufl^ brings carelessness, and carelessness begets accldenta. Weaver, on the basis of his experience as an agricultural engineer, suggests that all farm equipment be checked and re paired; that all electrical equip ment be cleansed and Inspected; that the many hazards around the farm be corrected; and that rural people be continually on their guard against accidents. He calls special attention to defective hitches, seato, clutches, wheels, brakes, and unguarded revolving parts as gears, chains, or shafts of farm machinery. They should all be checked with special care. Ruby Pearson, former home demonstration agent in Johnston county, Is the new leader of 4-H club work for girls In North Carolina.

Young tender carrots may not need to be peeled. Just enoug'h water to prevent stick ing to 'the pan is all that young te;nder carrote need. Older ones need enough water to cover. Have the water boiling before putting In the carrots. Cover the kettle to spped ithe cooking, save fuel and conserve vitamins. Cook only until itender.

In wheat and the yield was allghtly over ten bushels per acre. This same field made 66 bushels of barley per acre In 1044. They made a soil and water conservation plan with the Mid dle Yadkin District In ,1939 In cluding several practices that conaerve and improve the soil.

"Шеу applied m anure, lime and fertilizer to about 9 acres, sowed peas and plowed them under. They seeded a mixture of grasses and ladlno clover In thé spring of 1942. The amount of grazing has been out standing as 40 cows have ibeen ■ doing well, their production be ing well above the average. They have 14 more qcres they Im proved last year that Is doing well, too. . They also iise winter grain mixtures and red clover for sup plementary grazing. The Groces plan to save some ladlno clover seed from part of their pasture and increase their acreage of this outstanding grazing crop. The kudzu shown on the road bank is doing a complete Job of controlling erosion. This bank was caving In badly, considerable money WEU spent by the owners on cement and rock but they made a failure. The picture will explain whether or not kudzu has failed. Kudzu will furnish good grazing or hay, too. The Grocea are now planning to seed 9 acres of alfalfa this fall. This will enable them to distribute their hay saving from spring to fall, and wUl enable them to turn under more les pedeza for soil Improvement.

HOBSOir, County Agent ' At toe time this article Ui be ing written, Tuesday afternoon, parts of Calahaln, ClarksvUle and Farmington townships are still ‘ enduring one of toe worst , droughts experienced in many, many years. The area hardeat hit Is probably around Davie Academy, County Line and Sheffield, which also happens to be toe principal tobacco aee- tlon of toe county. Some to bacco plants are very little larger than when set out. Com, Iw- pedeza, gardens and cotton'are also at a standstUl. E. Y. Floyd, who is recognised as an authority on tobacco cul ture in North Carolina, recom mends toat tobacco should con tinue to be cultivated in dry weatoer. Past experience ahoWB toat tobacco auffera worse In most cases when it has not been plowed in two or three weeks. The root system of the tobacco plants develops differently from moat of our cultivated crops in that the new roots develop up toe stalk, as toe plant grow«, hence -it is necessary to continue to apply soil around the plant during the growing period. Mr. Floyd thinks toe best type of plowing to give tobacco *t ^ this time is to use A one-horse turn plow and an 18 in. aweep to toe shank by toe same bolt that you use in attaching toe wing or moidboard. oiie large wing or moidboard should be used and this 18 in. sw ^p will permit tba point of toe turn plow to run In the middle of the row which wUl not disturb toe present root sye-' tem. In this step of cultivation’ toe plow should run only deep ' enough to keep toe soU moving over the moidboard and sweep amootoly. The sweep wiU take the fresh soU from the moid board up under the leaves and around the staUc, ’Ihls wUl mean that you wUl be able to get fresh dirt around toe stalk and toe soU wUl be loose fra toe ehtlr , bd, vn out to the middle of the row. It is necessary to have toe soil loose from .the bed and in cluding the middle to get ade quate aeration for the tobacco : to make toe necessary growto to overcome the condition by the long drought. Where tobacco is not more than 2 ft, tall it would be ad- ■ vlsable to burst the middles with : a turn plow wlto a very smaU moidboard or an old moidboard broke into half, toen attach a 14 in, sweep to the turn plow as described above. Allow toe plow to run deep so that toe soU can be thoroughly loosened, To do this properly It wUl re quire two furrows In each mid dle, By doing this, tl wUl make loose soU available to move around the plants of tobacco a« described above. Of all times It wUl pay tobacco farmers not to become too dis couraged but to make every ef fort to see toat his tobacco li cultivated to the very best ad vantage possible to get aximum growto. To date, toere has not been suffloieht rain to. leach toe fertUizer and we have every ^ reason to tejleve that as soon as toe grouj^; gets wet toe to> bacco w ^ . | i ^ a very rapid (C e a H iili.M i H I« •> Ü1 PAGE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N.

Mr. and Mrs. Jim Thompson You seldom find, we think, a couple who have done more consistent work for the community during war times than Mr, and Mrs, J, H, Thompson of Mocksville. Ordinarily, Mr. Thompson would be on the road sell ing for the furniture manufacturers he represents. But during the war more orders for merchandise have flown to the concerns without solicitation than they can take care of. Consequently, Mr. Thompson has been spending moat of his time at home. He has occupied much of that time in various kinds of war work on the “home front,” to say nothing of a fling in the political waters with which we are here riot concerned. He headed the first U. S. O. drive, was co- chairman in two others, co-chairman in the first Red Cross campaign and chairman in two succeeding ones, been actively associated with the local War Price and Ra tioning Board since its Inception and has solicited pur chases for the various War Bond loans. Mrs. Thompson has been home service chairman for the local Red Cross for three years and during tliat period has made hundreds of visits to families of service men to solve their problems. Her services have been without pay, in fact she has refused to accept a salaried post, and on all of the calls she has made Mr. Thompson has driven his car, since she does not drive. Last year, for instance, Mrs. Thompson handled 429 cases. Modest, courteous especially in the face of uninform ed criticism, this couple love to serve their community. The only compensation they receive is the joy of doing; It is our opinion that they would be imhappy were theii hands and hearts not finding useful things to do. This little piece is to remind them, as well as others who aré like-minded in doing their part to hasten the day of vic- tory and peace, that their services aré appreciated durf Ing these days of justifiable complaining about meat, can ning sügar and other OPA mystifying regulations. The record shows that Davle folks have bought War Bonds in excess of their quotas, have given more to the Red Cross than they were asked to give, have raised more food and farm products than thought possible with a shortage of labor, have sent about 10 per cent of their boys to war and are bearing whatever hardships come their way with good humor and the good old free Amer ican way of griping about anything they don’t like or think unfair. x ; General “Ike” The great welcome which America gave to General Dwight Elsenhour was a typical American affair, and the General was a typical Anierlcan. The celebration pro vided sufficient noise, but it was not blustery, and it wm not the result of propagandists, paid to create applause. It was just the natural outpouring of the feelings of America in a spontaneous way. The crowd of welcomers represented all America, from metropolitan New York down to the most remote village and farm. And, a general who can be "Ike’ to his soldiers, and to his fellow countrymen, Is a real man. The general has shown the humility which marks all great men, and he stands in great contrast to those blustering braggarts who strutted over Europe carrying death and destruction to a large part "of the world. Those leaders have gone down in defeat, unwept, unhonored, and unsimg. General Elsenhour, along with his great staff of mili tary leaders, were not braggarts. They were earnest, calm, ■and able. They thought of the safety of their men; they planned to win with least loss of life; they were bigger and better than anything that Germany had to offeri It was the character of the men In the American army, officers* and men down to the last private, which carried the power to defeat Germany, They had the weapons, and they used them with skill, but it was the character of the men behind them which made victory possible. May It always be so— that Americans will be humble, strong, courageous, kind. The cheers to General Elsenhour were not mere noises Issuing from the lips of a fanatical gathering; they came from the hearts of true Americans, simple, ^cere, af fectionate—the thing that makes us all humbly proud to be Americans. Shipping restrictions under war food order 120 now Include potatoes produced in Currituck, Camden, Pasquotank, Tyrrell, Hyde and Pan)}lco counties.

WHAT K¡MD or fttll mnOYMiMTy i> « ■ ly СЙйП Letoria Oat Makes Exception Yields The Letoria oat, one of the many selections from the cross of the winter-hardy Lee oat and the dlseaM-reslstant Victoria oat from South America, was se lected by the Agricultural Ex periment station at State col lege. It Is not exceptionally winter- hardy but it is also a heavy pro ducer, This new, dlsease-reslst- ant oat averaged 81 bushels per acre as compared with 54 bush els for Lee In tests conducted at Swannanoa In 1041-42 and at Hendersomvllle In 1942-43, says Dr. Gordon Middleton, head of the field crops section of the Experiment Station. While it has not proven super ior to Lm In yield In the Pied mont area, its resistance to crown (leaf) rust gives It some insurance against those years when trust Is severe, Dr. Middle ton points out. The original cross of the Lee and Victorian varieties was made by the Division of Cereal Crops and Diseases of the U. S. De partment. From this cross thou sands-of selections have been made and among these are the Letoria and Lellna .in North Caroltna; the Stanton from South Carolina: the Lega, Leíate, Levlc and Leroy varieties from Georgia; the Plorllee from Flor ida; and the Desota from Ar kansas. AJOKEADAY What Happened Doctor' (eyeing patient coldly as the latter arrived late for his exm lnatlon); “You should have been here at 0:30." Patient: “Why, what happen ed?" to A Stone’s Throw Farther Rookie: “H ow ''far Is It camp?” Sergeant; ^‘About ten miles as the crow files.” Rookie: “How far II the crow had to carry a pack and a rifle?” Water - proof packaging of many military supplies Is need ed because they must be float ed a^oire and^k^t in the open, exposed to troplc&l storms. Letoria has proven to be the most wlnter-'hardy of this group and also a heavy ylelder. The original cross of the two varie ties was made in 1027 and thru the years the agricultural ex periment station of North Car olina has been w,orking for the farmer In an effort to produce a disease-resistant, hlgh-yleldlng oat that would make feed pro duction easier and safer. Finally after making countless selec tions, It developed a new oat with outstanding wlnter-hardl- ness and a resistance to crown rust. O U R D E M O C R A C Y - S e a s o n e d Tim b e r .

By double cropping and heavy fertilization, the almost incred ible yield of 146 bushels of grain pér acre has been produced by W. T. Moss of Voungsvllle In the past year. The two crops used were corn and barley. Moss entered the Franklin county corn contest last year and applied 4,000 pounds of fer tilizer, equivalent to about a 6- 10-5, with the chief fertilizer constituents consisting of super phosphate, muriate of potash, nitrogen topdresser, and basic slag, according to County Agent Walter Puller ol the State col lege extension service. Ten tons of barnyard manure, were also added to the acre., He planted the N. C. T-11 hy brid In 3 1-2 foot rows with bhe plants 10 Inches in the drill. Prom May 25 to July 13 there was practically no rain and the yield of tlie com was 63 bushels per acre. The crop paid for the commercial fertilizer and left a balance of $31.40, "In the production of this corn one point was especially noticeable,” says County Agent Puller. “The corn plants failed to fire or burn during the ex ceptionally dry weather." When the corn was harvested, the same acre was seeded to Sunrise barley, with five bushels of seed per acre, seeding both ways. An application of 600 pounds of basic slag per acre was applied at the time of seed ing, and a topdresshig of 250 pounds of calnltro was made In February. Moss has Just weighed his barley crop and the yield, allow ing 48 pounds per bu^el, was 83 1-3 bushels per acre—giving a total of 146 bushels of* grain on one acre in one year by double cropping. Fertilizer Doubles Yield of Oat Crop . The yield ol oats was doubled by good fertilization, In a dem onstration just completed by Arthur H. Gross, of Rutherford county, and reported by Assist ant County Agent K. S. Har mon. The oats followed cotton which had been fertilized with 500 lbs. of 4-10-8 and 150 pounds of ni trate of soda per acre. “Many farmers believe It useless to ap ply fertilizer to oats after such a heavily fertilized crop," says Enos Blair, extension agrono mist at State college, “but tests prove otherwise." After the cotton had been picked, the land (a Cecil sandy loam) was prepared for oats, which were sown on November 17. The Fulgraln variety was used, at the rate' ol three and one-'half bushels per acre. The fertilizer demonstration consisted of four treatments, ap plied side by side on a uniform part of the 12 acre field. The first treatment, no fertilizer at all, resulted in 33 bushels of oats per acre. The second, which was 300 pounds of 4-10-6 put on when the oats were planted, made 52 bushels per acre. In the third treatment no fertilizer was appli^ at planting, but on March 1 the oats were top-dress ed with 150 pounds of nitrate ot soda per acre. This treatment gave a yield of 56 bushels of oats. The fourth treatment was a combhiation of the second and third; that U, 300 pounds of 4- 10-8 were applied at planting, and ISO pounds of nitrate of soda on March 1. This plan o f fertilization made by far the best yield, of all, 68 b^e^ls per açre... . "i “In others words, good fertili zation, with complete fertilizer and nitrate of soda made 35 bushels, more than no fertilizer, 16 bushels more than fertilizer alone, and 12 bushels more than nitrate of soda alone," Blair says. On The Home Front TENANT PURCHASE LOANS Allocations among the States and territories of halt ot the $50,000,000 authorized for the >arm Security Ad ministration’s tenant purcha№ loans for the next 12 months . have been announced by the U. S. Department of Agricul ture. The remaining $25,000,000 is earmarked for loans to World War II veterans and will be made available wher ever the demand fdr the loans occurs. The allocated funds distributed on the basis of farm population and the pre valence of tenacy, will be used in the regular FSA program under w hich loans are made to tenants, sharecroppers and farm laborers for the purchase o f famlly-size farms. Congress increased these funds by $10,000,000 over last year. The loans, m ade under the Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenant A ct of 1937, can cover the full purchase price of a fam ily farm . They are repayable over a 40 year period and bear three percent interest on unpaid principal. One requirem ent applicants m ust m eet to obtain a loan Is In ability to get adequate credit from other sources on reason able terms. An exception to this is m ade only in the case of veterans w ho show a need for the type of vocational guidance offered by FSA. , : NO M ORE ALL-RUBBER TIRES Nor m ore tires will be manufactured entirely of nat ural rubber, W . Fames, Sears, deputy director of WPB’s Rubber Bureau, reported as additional steps to conserve Am erica’s dwindling stockpile of natural rubber were an nounced. “Every pound of natural rubber must be re served for products that cannot be made of adequate quality by using synthetic rubber,” Sears said. WEARING APPAREL To Insure continued production of nine kinds of coats and overcoats for men, women and children, manufacturers will be granted priorities assistance in obtaining woolen knitted fabrics in the third and succeeding quarters, WPB said. The coats and overcoats for which priorities assist ance wil be granted are: women’s, misses’ and Juniors' coats; teen age girls’ coats; girls’ coats; cfhildren’s coats; toddlers’ coats; Infants’ coats, boys’ finger tip coats; men’s ulster and double breasted overcoats, and men’s basic model overcoats. A WPB order, effective in May, covering distribution of textiles to manufacturers in helping to bring back medi< um and lower-priced garments to dealers’ shelves by late sxunmer, said Kenneth W. Marrlner, director of WPB’s Textile Bureau. Cloth allocations was made to provide for three civilian groups; children, workers, and that goup of adults whose earnings do not allow them to accumulate wardrobes. Special consideration was given to children’s garments over adult needs. MATERNITY CARE Eight hundred fifty thousand wives and infants of servicemen have received care or are receiving care under the emergency maternity and Infant-care program, the Children’s Bureau of the U. S. Department of Labor announced. In May alone, 44,000 new cases were author ized for care. Through this program, which Is adminis tered by State health departments, under plans approved by the Children’s Bureau complete maternity care, in cluding medical and hospital service, is provided for wives of servicemen, and medical and hospital-care is avail able for their infants until they are one year of age. This care is pro^^ided for the wives and infants of en listed men without cost to the men or their familieis and without regard to their financial status. Those eligible are wives and infants of men in the four lowest pay grades of the Army, Navy, Coast Guard and Marine Corps and of Army and Navy cadets. Care Is authorized without re gard to race or place of residence. Applications for this care can be made through the physician accepting the case or through State of local health offices. Inquiries should be addressed to State departments of health. VETERAN’S DEVELOPMENTS With the number of veterans returning to civilian life constantly increasing, the U. S. Employment Service will expand its veterans’ propams and activities Immediate ly to assure adequate and special service to veterans, Paul V(, McNutt, chairman of the War Manpower Commission, said. The special service to veterans Includes a veterans' employment representative in each local USES office throughout the country, trained personnel to Interview, counsel and'refer veterans to jobs and to furnish veterans with Information concerning other agencies set up to serve them. It will also speed up placement procedures to re duce the amounts of time a veteran spends in the USES offices.

Care should be used In topping tobacco this year. Where ample fertilizer has been used the to bacco should be topped just as high as possible. On tobacco that Is blooming and not more than approximately 1 ft. high, It would pay to top 6 to 8 leaves and leave a sucker. It Is usually best to leave the sucker that comes with tlie second leaf after tobacco has been topped In this condition. In Instances there have been good crops produced when approximately one-fourth of the tobacco had to be topped as described a^ ve where sucker was turned put. With good management and proper cultivation, which « will not dis‘ turb the present root system, there is still a chance for a good yield of high quality tobacco.

' FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Q. What can 1 do for some crippled shoats7 A. The: trouble is evidently due to a lack of minerals. Jack Kelly Extension swine specialist, sug gests the feeding ot a mineral mixture of. 10 parts of ground limestone, 5 parts of steamed bone meal and 2 parts of salt. This should be kept In a box so that the shoats can eat it when ever they wish. Kelly points out that the mineral mixture acts slowly. The shoats have developed the crippled condition over a period ol time lor them to re cover Irom this condition. Q. How can I rid a cemetary lot ol blackberry briars? A. Dr. Roy Lovvorn, in charge oi lorage crop investigations lor the Agricultural Experiment Sta tion, suggests tlMt you try either chlor-arsenate or ammate, but he .is not sure that they will do the Job. The ammate should.be used as a spray, one pound of the pow- deir to one gallon ol water. He says that you will probably need to repeat the application ol either ol these materials bi about a month.MORE AmOVT Davie Farmers months period will help offset thé extra feed bills when pas tures brown off during the sum mer and more leed and hay have to be led to maintain produc tion levels.” The dairy production pay ments, initiated in the fall ol 1943, aré ade direct to producers by the Davie County AAA Com mittee upon submission of sul- llcient evidence ol production and sales, and are designed to take care ol the Increase in pió- ductlon costs without raising the prices at milk and milk prod ucts to consumers.

Attack The Enemy With Sulphur Dust Dusting ithe loaf opot disease on ipeanuts with copper-sulphur will bring an average extra profit of about $28 per acre, says How ard Oorrlss, Extension plant paihtologlat at State College.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By RIITH CURRENT N. C. State CoUege . Home demonstration special ists of .the State College Ex tension Service, studying time and motion, have agreed on the lollowing six principles to speed production on the hpme assembly line.,, I ‘ ‘ ! I Leave out any part of the task you can. For example, in dlshr washing scald dishes with boil ing water and leave on rack to dry instead ol wiping dry. Choose recipes requiring less time and lewer utensils. :^íake both hands work. It pays to learn to use both hands at the same time instead ol over working the right hand. Such jobs as putting away dishes, set ting the table and dusting can be done by both hands at once. Keep everything in easy reach. Wasted steps mean wasted time and energy. Keep the coffee pot, coffee and measuring spoon or cup at the place where the coffee Is made, and the bread box and toaster side by side. Group iron ing equipment-iron, clothes rack, hangers, and basket as near the Ironing board as possible, 'Use the best tools for the task. For example, use togs to remove Jars and glasses from hot rinse water and to take baked potatoes from the oven. A long-handled dustpan prevents stooping and saves time. Sit at work whenever you can. Tired backs and leet slow up work. Much Ironing can be done as well sitting as standing. A lap table aavw ellort in preparing vegetablea lor cooking and can ning. II the Iron atioka during iron ing, rub it with a little salt sprinl^led on paper or smooth llghtl;^ with paraffin or beeswax. A' pinch of salt In the starch will help keep starched clothes from stloklpg to the Iron. Grain Straw Will Damage Lespedeza ilie removal of straw from grain fielda la a problem that has come to ua along with the combine, says Enos Blair, ex tension agronomist at State col lege. In the old days ol the bin der and the thresher, the neat stacks ol straw lelt around the barn were valuable aa a source ol bedding, and as winter rough age lor dry cattle. When the combine first came into vogue many farmers sim ply left thé straw on the Held, in the hope that It would rot away belore the lespedeza or clover which was growing in the grain stubble waa ready to har vest lor hay. But Instead, the straw was usually raked up with the hay, resulting in hay ol low quality. In some cases, extra heavy straw would smother out the clover and lespedeza. A lew larmera have tried burn ing the straw, as lelt In wind rows by the combine, but this is not only wasteful, but may also destroy much ol the young hay crop. "It is well worth while to re move the straw Irom grain stub-, ble llelds, both as a help in pro ducing clean lespedeza or clover hay, and 1er its own value as bedding and roughage,” says Blair. The pick-up baler offers the easiest way of doing this. “Another good way is to rake the straw into windrows some what larger than those lelt by the combine, and bale it wth a small portable baler. If this can not be done, r^ke up the straw and haul It away, stacking it on the ^ g e ol the Held or near the barii. ■ "The grain atubble should be clipped within two or three weeks after harvest. ’This serves to set t^ack the weeds, , so that the hay crop can grow better. It also puts the a^bble-ln contact wtlh the ground, where it will decay more, rabidly than If left standing. . "If the atubjile. is extremely high, it may pay to rake It off the field.” COOLEEMEE HAS BASEBALL CLUB Cooleemee ha!s recently organ ized a baseball club and cele brated the return to the diamond by defeating Advance Saturdey afternoon 15-6. ’The local team collected a total ol lilteen hits, including lour doubles, two trip les and one home run. Carter, Chappell, McBride, Parker, O. McDaniel, and Bailey had two hits each. Bailey hit one over the centerlield lence in the sixth in ning. Creason, Bailey, and Brinegar held Advance to live hits, but some loose lieldlng on the part ol the locals permitted the visit ors to score six runs. There are a large number ol players trying out lor the club, and prospects lor a winning team are rather bright. Cooleemee will meet Dukevllle in the-local park Saturday at 6:00 p. m. Dukevllle boasts a strong team including several ol the Catawba college players. Taylor, the college star whom big league scouts have been trying, to sign, will probably pitch lor the visit ors.

The last good rain , was about the middle of May. Paris—What the Oerman High Command thinks of tbe m ajor' problems of the lost war have been revealed during question ing of Ool, Gen. Gustav Jodi, who Is regarded as having the greatest Influence on Hitler of^ any of the war chiefs. The in formation he gave was confirm- ^ ed in the mabi by Field Marshal WUhelm Keitel, chief of the High Command. Question of Italy What did the High Command; think of having Italy aa an ally? lie was asked. They didn't want it at all, he said. The High Command would have preferred Italy to stay neutral as the greatest service; to the German cause. However, Hitler insisted on establishing the Rome-Berlin axis and the fat was to the fire. Attack on England Oeneral Jodi admits the Ger mans definitely did plan to in vade England. Orders were is sued July 2, 1840.' The Invasion wits only ordered following the complete surprise and disappointment that Britain did not fold up. Answering the queation aa to . why the Germans turned to cleaning upi'^ance Instead of- going right after Britain acroM the Channel, when they could have so easily, General Jodi said they figured that, with Franco completely taken over, England would see no hope and would give up. When the British did not, an invasion was ordered. i The High Command figured that,it must land 10 divisions to 10 days in England to make the invasion a success.' It soon became apparent that this waa going to be harder and harder to realize. First, the Germans must haVe complete air superiority not only on account of the RAF, but In order to neutralize tto Bfitldi fleet. They trl^ this and failed. In September, bad weather b e -. came an additional hazard. Further, the Oerman army had not really been amphibiously trained. Finally there were no proper landtog craft which Allied experience has proven to be so necessary. All the Nazis had were Rhtoe barges which were slow. Only a fairly speedy craft could ' meet the essential requirement of getttog 10 divisions across In M days.' By the first of October it waa ; apparent that these negative factors made an attempt com pletely hopeless and tovaslon orders were cancelled Oct. 6. Appearances were kept up, however, for whatever nuUanoe value they might have in coii- fuatog Allied plana. North African Invwrion Oeneral Jodi aaya the attack on North Africa itself was a complete surprise. If this Is true, then the famed Oerman effi ciency and attention to detail ' faUed. In July of 1942, the Office o< War Information Issued a direc tive to American short - wave radiocasters not to mention A l- rlca except for South Africa and the Middle Bast.

That was when the Trans* portation Corps of the War Depart ment asked the Southern Railway System to teach the fine art of rail roading to American soldiers who would some day have the Job of operating military railroads in a dis tant "theatre of operations.” The Southern's rails were already beginning to hum with, a record vol* ume of wartime traffic. Nevertheless, a "school" was made available for tiie soldler-railroaders, without charge,on tho 200-mite main* lino of tiie Soutiiem between New Orleans and Meridian, Miss. Instruc* tion cars and other special facilities were provided, and veteran Southern oificers and employes volunteered to servo as "teachers.” OnMarch 18,1942,tiietrainingwas begun. And from that day to the end of January, 1945, soldier-railroaders worked alongside skilled Southern officers and employes throughout this 200>mile long "school’*... on trains, in shops and roundhouses...on tracks, in offices and yards... learning to work together as a team... learning to'railroad—by railroading. To date W O have been privileged 'to train, not only our own famout Soutiiem*sponsored 727tii Railway Operating Battalion, but also three other battalions and the personnel of a replacement school... in all, some 6,000 officers and men. The record shows, top, that when these soldier-railroaders graduated from our "school” and went overseas, tiiey added brilliant new chapters to the history of military railroading on the battlefronts of World War II. So, as these soldier-railroaders go highballing down the mainline to final Victory, it is with understandable pride that wè mention this extra war job of the Southern Railway ^stem ... now titat it can be told.

In every county, therefore, there Is a war bond chair man whose Job it is to organize his county into groups of workers and help them to see everybody in their allotted territory about buying bonds. .This job carries no pay, either for the chairman or the workers. It is a voluntary contribution towards help ing win the war. It is a Job that is highly Important. It Is a task that requires constant effort,‘tact and stick-to-lt- iveness. Davie county has reached every quota in the seven war ion drives, including the most important goal of “E” bonds. In most drives the quota has been surpassed and in the last one it went way over the top. Not every county in the state can boast of such a record. Of course the purchases are a great tribute to the people of Davie who realize both the desirability of laying away bonds for a post-war rainy day and in help ing to 'fhn the present struggle. But the fine Job could not have been so successfully completed had it not been for the work done by Knox Johnstone, county chairman, and the workers of each community in the county. ^ They have labored tirelessly, unselfishly and patriotically. They have earned the right to be publicly acclaimed for their good citi^nship. James F. Byrnes—Secretary of State We do hot know of any other man In the political and diplomatic world who gives promise of being a greater Secretary of State than the Hon. James F. Byrnes, of Spart an burg, S. C. Aside from the fact that |ilr. Byrnes de serves the appointment, he possesses the ability to fill it. It is true that his abilities in this field remain o be tested, but his services as senator, as "Assistant President’ and In other offices which he has held, warrant us in believing that he will fill this new post with honor and efficiency. The fine loyalty which Mr. Byrnes has shown, both to the Democratic party, to the late President Roosevelt—«nd, greatest of all, to the fine sense of his own duty and re- sponsibiUty, reveal traits of greateness. It would have been no more than human if he had become embittered over disappointments, but he never let his personal feelings move him from his' high sense of duty. It has been this loyalty, and his spirit of humility which have made us be lieve for a long time that Mr. Byrnes was a man of suffic ient ability and strength of character as to warrant the American people in placing him in the highest position of responsibility within their power to bestow. We feel con fident that he will make a great secretary. German Depravity On the radio program some nights ago we heard a soldier, who had gone into one of the German concentration camps immediately after the Germans had been driven oui, say that: "After seeing the horrors of that camp I am wondering if there is such a thing as a good German.” His question tallies with an article by General Eisen- hour in a recent issue of Colliers. The General describes the Germans as he found them, and he does so with every effort to be fair and factual. He found most of them well fed, unrepentant, and with no sense of guilt. They thought it quite right to kill and enslave others; they thought it right to rob others, and showed absolutely no pity for those who suffered through their crimes. On the other hand, they were amazed that anybody diould dare to hurt one of those superior Germans, The facts regarding German atrocities, and the depraved minds from which they sprang have been too well established by reputable Americans as to leave any doubt. And when we read, or hear, of people in America today who want ah ему peace for Germany; who cry out in alarm about'Russia, then we know exactly where to place those peole; Thtfy are pro-Nazi, and they are acting. Intentionally, or imin- tentionally, but acting, on behalf of the depraved Germany which is already planning for another war. There are a lot of those people who are trying to make enough noise about Russia to keep people from seeing the real depravity of the Germans.

O. Moss; In charge of the To bacco Branch Experiment Sta tion at Oxford. He points out that green cured tobacco brings a relatively low market price because of Its poor quality and bitter taste. During the yellowing period the starches of the leaf are converted to sugar, and the efficiency of the change from starch to sugar largely de termines the value of the tobacco. ‘^If primings are not of even riiwness, the correct manipula tion of the temperature to pre vent green tobacco on one hand and sponging on t he other is almost Impossible," Hoss says. "All of the tobacco placed In the barn should be primed in one day, so that uniformity In ripe ness and ilme of priming may supiply tobacco capable of yellow ing evenly. This makes it possible to raise the heat to fix tihe color at just tho right period. Such a condiUon is theoretical, and In practice, t he tobacco curer will find it best to raise the tem perature as dictated by the ave rage tobacco In the barn.” In discussing proper manip ulation during the'yellowing per iod Moss says that more tobacco cures are ruined by raising the heat too quickly than by allowing the tobacco to yellow too long. While sponging hurts the market value of the leaf a minor amount is of no serious concern. If to bacco sponges too 'much the sol- uable sugar content Is reduced ftiving the tobacco à strong fla vor. When preparing food In the upper part of the double boiler the under part may be utilized for cooking sweet potatoes for candying, Irish potatoes for salad beets or hard boiled eggs. This saves fuel and later attention at the stove. . When potatoes are boiled whole and are different In size put the làrger ones in the bot tom of the pan and the smaller ones on top. The under ones get the advantage of the strongest heat and will cook soft as soon as the smaller ones on top. Towards One World The San Francisco Conference has adjourned after weeks of hard, patient effort to write a United Nations Charter. Their task has been accomplished, and the charter has been presented by the President of the United States to the U S Senate. Thruogh the press the people of the United States have had the opportunity to read and study the charter, and it has met with approval by the vast majority of those who have spoken. The people who made it, and the people who have read it agree that it is not a perfect Instrument but also agree that it is the best possible one at this time, and express the hope that it will be ratified. So far, it has obtained almost full approval of the members of the Senate. We trust it will be ratified at ah early date by the Senate. It is as President Truman stated, the world’s hope and its only hope for peace. How can we view the suffer ings and sacrifices of the many millions of people who have died, the millions who have been torn from their homes, the millions made slaves; the starving, the homeless, the widowed, the orphaned with any feelings less than a de termined effort to put an end to senseless, horrible war fare? We must take this first step, and then work to wards making more perfect instruments. There may be a few people who will oppose the charter on sincere conviction, but the great danger will not come from these. The real danger will come from those whose greed for wealth and ^w er wiirrlse above all consideration for humanity. I^ere will be those, who for reasons of personal spite and hate will oppose world cooperation. They too will care little about humanity. In this hour the Amricim people must become actively and intelligently alert, and make their influence tcnown and felt. We must not let a few politicians; as we did last time, destroy the world's .best hope.

MAXIMUM SUGAR FOR CANNING IS IS POUNDS Fifteen pounds of sugar is the maximum to be al lowed, to any one person for home canning, OPA empha sized, correcting a misunderstanding by housewives con cerning home canning sugar allotment. Only housewives planning to can enough foods to require this amount of sugar are eligible to receive this much, and they will re ceive it only where local sugar quotas permit such allo cation, OPA said. In order to secure this amoimt, the housewife must establish to the satisfaction of iier local ration board, that she actually is going to do this much canning. In other words, local ration boards are empowered to allot only the amount of sugar to each Individual (up to 15 pounds) required for her actual cannhig needs. NEW SHOE STAMP VALID IN AUGUST The new shoe ration stamp that OPA annoimced would become valid August 1,1945, will be Airplane Stamp No. 4 in War Ration Book No. 3, the agency sa^d. Air plane Stamps Nos. 1, 2 and 3 are good indefinitely, OPA added. The last stamp was validated November 1, 1944. OPA pointed out that the intervals between validation of stamps depend on the available supply of shoes. Miss Margaret Grant Honored at Party Mrs. A. T.

That Guilford county is the only county in North Carolina that has two courthouses? Yes, Guilford has a courthouse ' at Greensboro and another one at High Point. The population of Guilford county is 'large, both Greensboro and High Point are progressive cities, and the plan of having two courthouses, it is said, works Ideally, because it helps to dispose of the court docket without inconveniencing those who have to attend ma terially.

State College Hints To Farm Homemaken By RVTH CURRENT N. C. state Collece <Uise sugar sparingly. Instead of cake frostlngs and fillings, which call for considerable sugar, spread warm cake with marma lade, jam or preserves. Serve Jelly rolls, custard-filled rolls, or Boston cream cake Instead of frosted cake. Sheet cakes re quire only half as much frosting as layer cakes. Fill layer cake with chopped dried fruit, rich In natural sugar, mixed with nuts, and moistened with honey or corn sirup. Make steamed dried fruit into fruit whips, or filling for pies, turn overs and tarts. Instead of sugar in the center of baked apples or pears, fill with raisins and corn sirup or honey. Serve fresh fruits often as des sert. Fruit salad may take the place of a sweet dessert. And add a bit ot salt to frost lngs, pie fillings and puddings to accentuate the sweetness. Less sugar is needed to sweet en cooked fruit if sugar is added after Instead of before cooking. Use honey or maple sirup in stead of sugar to glaze sweet- potatoes or baked ham; to sweeten baked or, soft custard; and with nuts to make sauce for ice cream. Corn starch or tapi oca cream pudding may be made with half the usual measure of sugar if a tablespoon of sirup is put in the bottom of each serv ing dish before filling with pud ding. Jar rings for home canning this year will have better seal ing quality and less tendency to impart off-flavora to food. How ever, 'home cannery are advised to continue last year’s recom mended practice of boiling rings 10 minutes in one quart of water containing one tablespoon of soda for each dozen rings and then rinsing in boiling water.

There are ‘three general rest periods for pastures during the year, 1 before early spring graz ing, one during the dry periods of summer, and one just before the pastures go Into winter quar ters—say extension specialists at State college. Short-change the pasture at any one of these three periods, and it will bring a reward of less total grazing. Some farmers practice pasture rotation, and while this is good practice, one of the best methods of giving the pennanent pasture a rest is through the use of temporary grazing crops which can be eas ily produced for early spring, mid summer, or late fall. The specialists suggest that livestock be kept off of the pas ture In early spring until the grass has made a growth of about 6 to 8 inches, but who can do this? Only the man who has seeded a mixture of small grains and legumes, with rela tively heavy seeding and ade quate fertilization about the first of September. Early seeding brings earlier grazing and more grazing. Who can rest his pastures dur ing the long, dry periods of sum mer? Only the man who has planted soybeans, Sudan grass, and other such crops, says the specialists. And, finally, who can rest his pastures during the late fall? Only the man who has some good crop as lespedeza in the answer. Alfalfa, with its 4 hay crops a year, also occupies a promi nent place in the plan of greater feed production, the specialista say. Four Pointers For Pasture Management Good management of perma nent pastures increases the amount of grazing on a given area of land and Increases the protein content of the feed, re sulting in larger total gains of beef or milk per acre. Extension specialists at State College suggest four major points in working for better pasture management. First, the pasture should not be grazed too early In the spring, not until the grass has made a growth of abgut 0 to 8 Inches and firmly es- tablised themselves. Second, overgrazing of the pas tures, especially during long dry periods in summer, reduces the total amount of .grazing. Such temporary grazing crops as soy beans, cowpeas, and Sudan grass can be used to bridge over the dry periods when grasses become though and low in grazing value. Kudzu is another good crop for this period. Third, keep down weeds by two or three mowings of the paatures during the summer months. The weeds reduce the yield of grasses and compete with them for water during the dry periods. Fourth, fertilize the pastures 90 as to stimulate the growth of legumes and grasses and in crease the total amout of graz ing. When legumes are Included in the permanent pasture seed ing mixtures, they help produce more grass. Permanent pastures and tem porary grazing crops, where the animals themselves gather their own food, are furnishing much cheaper feed than ordinary feed crops and i^ould be Included on even the smallest farm, the Ex tension specialists say. Two series 01 temporary graing crops are needed; one seeded about Sept ember 1 for fall and winter graz ing, and one for summer grazing, round out the program.

BUY WAR BONDS— STAMPSI Corn Is Cultivated Shallow This Year More North Carolina farmers are practicing shallow cultivation of corn thois year than ever be fore and more farmers are laying by the corn early than is usually the case because of recommen dations of the Agricultural Ex periment Station at State College* Dr. Emerson Collins^ in charge of Extension agronomy, tells of visiting a farmer near Mebane In company with Farm Agent J. W. Bason of ^am ance county. "With the soil crusted and the roots within about one-half inch of the surface, this farmer was going four times to the row with a turning plow,” Collins saya "After the plants were examined and he realized how much dam age he was doing with his deep plowing, he changed to a sweep and ran it as shallow as possible.” Another farmer near Reids- vllle In Rockingham county ex plained to Oollins that he could not plow his corn as shallow as he should with his present equip ment and that he was planning to get different sweeps for cul tivating his corn next year. "Any farmer who will examine the roots ol corn plants can con vince himself that shallow cul tivation and laytag the crop by early are two good methods for increasing yields.’’ Collins said He points out that relatively heavy fertilization of corn ^t planting time, with the fertilizer well mixed within the row, gives the crop an extra quick growth and enables the farmer to lay the crop by at a much earlier period than is usually the case "Of course, weather conditions largely determine Just when Is the proper time to complete cul tivations,” Collins explained.

Oeneral Jodi claims that not ointll the great AUled convoy hit Olbraltar did the Oermans real ize a major attack was under ■way and even then they did not place it as an attack on North Ailrica but rather an attempt .to land Just in the rear ol Field Marshal Erwin Rommel In Cy- renalca. This statement Is also open to study. *№е Germans had com plete air control ol the western Miedlterranean and any convoy to reach Marshal Rommel's rear would have to go through a nar row eiclllan channel with Ger man air bases on both sides. Any attempt to go through would l)ave been a Held day lor the lAiltwalle ahd a suicide attempt ,wlth a big convoy. That Oeneral Jodi would estl- -’mete the Allied conuj^and iool- lah enouch to make such aa i^t* м етл unlikely. As to reinlorclng North Alrlca near the end, Oeneral Jodi says the Germans llgured they could hold a strong bridgehead in the mountainous country and that since they did not have any sea transport lor proper evacuation the best bet was to hold one. Attack on Russia Htler has long been blamed ior the attack on Russia but Oeneral Jodi’s statement indicates that It is much more the responsibility ol the High Command. General Jodi says he kept reporting to Hitler the building up ol Rus sian lorces on the Russian west ern border ai;id that under pres sure ol these, Hitler became con cerned. He llgured that 11 the Russlfins were not attacked they might make demands on Germany to allow them to enter the weak Balkan nations. Since the Bal kans were so Important to Ger> man economy and military de fense this was a threat Hitler' could not permit. So In May or June, 1841, Hitler and the High Command decided to attack Russia. As SHAGF intelligence points out however, there is a docu ment proving conclusively that the German High Command was planning to attack Russia In 1940. On this basis General Jodi’s production ol stories ol Russian lorces building up on the border may have been an underhand step by the High Command to get the go-ahead signal lor the plan drawn up the previous year. InTAiion ol Franc« The Germans lully expected tihe Invasion ol France and were certain ol the areas where J t would occur. They did think It would be earlier. Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt had stated he expected It In March or April. It harrowed down to a problem ol reserves and guessing the na ture ol the attack. The Germans were unhappy about their reserves. Demands ol the Eastern and Western Ironts caught them on the horns ol dilemma. Any attempt to move lorces Irom the East to the West resulted In protests from the Eastern commanders who lelt lar Irom strong enougih them selves. They saw things only Irom their side and wanted Western reserves, Bad'Guessing ' As to bad guessing the Oerman estimate was governed by certain important factors. When the Al lies attacked ln< Normandy ,the Oennans had their 15th army at Pas de Calais, ’They kept this army there because they lelt tbe llrqt attack was not the princi pal one and a second and bigger ohe would be struck at Pas de Calais. What Influenced this was first the lact that a successlul Allied attack there, by driving south, could cut the whole main Oer man communication system. Therelore, it made a most at tractive opportunity. Second, It was. the launching área lor v-l’s and V-2’s ahd must be protected so that this cam paign could continue against England, tater greater ellorts were made to correct this mis- t»ke.'\;',, - , • ‘ Two 88 corps were moved Irom Russia alter the 10th day but by this time the Allied tactical air loice was «howing its new-found prowess and it attacked Oerman communications so relentle^y that Oerman armor oould not be moved up last enough to ottaet the Initial Allied advantage, This was emphasized at Mor- taln when the Germans tried to break through and split the Al lied lorces there. The audacity ol Allied tactics plus the tremendous tactical air attacks on German armor pre vented the Gehnans from form ing their line, says Oeneral Jodi. Once this had lalled the Ger mans, unable to regain their bal ance, had to fall back all the way to the Siegfried line belore they could form another real holding line. If the line could have been lormed. General Jodi says they could have lallen back In well- organized rearguard action re tarding us on the Seine and other river lines In France and Belgium with plenty ol time to set up a Sleglrled delense so a real, stand could have been made there. But the Mortaln failure ended all such hopes, Ardennea Offonstre M pshal von Rundstedt’s now famous, 11 lll-lated, ollenslve was due to political requirements pri marily, Oeneral Jodi says. The Oermans needed a successlul of fensive somewhere to bolster up home morale and started looking around, Jn Russia they found them selves lacing 400 divisions. Against' such opposition—«yen 11 they succeeded in destroying 50 Soviet dlvlslon»-an ollenslve could not be'considered decisive. Turning west, thisy found 86 American and British divisions and that looked mote promising. Figuring the posslble/advantages from withholding a rebuilt Lult- walle and Irom the bad weather due at that time, they thought they sto<7d a fair chance of suc cess. If It came off they would have succeeded In splitting the Allied forces in two, making for an apparently decisive appear ing victory. Great secrecy was obtained and 900 trains moved up to the Rhine with troops for the blow. The selection of the Ardennes came after studying the Allied plans and seeing the obvious signs o f a big Allied offensive through Aachen and -the Saar, and also signs of Allied weak ness'In the Ardennes, , The strategic possibilities of a drive through to the coast made an attractive proposition. It was a distinct gamble at that. The Germans had Just suf ficient ammunition and gaso line to make the Initial drive aq^ gambled on capturing enough to maintain them alter the l|rst success. The Allied tactical air lorce made heavy Inroads on the Ger man hopes despite bad weather and this same weather they had counted on to help them Wnder- ed them by producing mud and mire, bogging down their armor and using up the already scarce gas supplies. By the third day they knew the attempt had, failed, ■ I When asked why they tried to hold west of the Rhine after this realization General Jodi' says they hadn’t much choice but to hold on and hope to gain some thing by delay through some po litical miracle. Here was tbe re«l final blow of COOLEEMEE Mrs, Bernard Penley of Nor folk, Va. is spending this week visiting at the home of her par ents, Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Gales on Watts street.

Gilbert Sheek of Smith Drove, sson of Mrs. Harry Sheek ■who was in an anti - aircraft unit in Belgium during the time the Germans were sending over the y-1 bombs wrote recently In part as follows to his mother from Germany: "I will now tell you where we were In Belgium. We were near Antwerp. Our job was to de fend Antwerp from V-1 or buzz Ibombs. Several of our boys were killed or wounded by them. I had two very narrow escapes myself. "Once close call waa one morn ing about two o’clock. I was put- thig In telephone communica tions to one of our ack-ack bat teries. All of a sudden a roar of 90mm guns opened up. It was cloudy and all you could see was a reddish sky. Out of ino place there came a scream like a wildcat. The bomb had been hit. "I tried to hit a ditch but was too late. The bomb hit 29 nor mal steps from me. It waa a di rect hit on a ihouse, killing all. of bhe persons. The concussion from the bomb lifted me 12 feet across the road In the opposite ditch from the one I dived for at the beginning. My ¡helmet was about 20 feet further off in a field. The truck I was In was a wreck. As you can see It was no fun back In the buzz bomb area. “Not because I am In ack- ack but it has done a great job in this war. We have been used for both air and ground de fense. During the breakthrough in December our ack-ack was sent straight to the attack. They were used against tanks, 40mms and our M-51s, the four 50-call- bre machlhe guns, were used against ground troops and straf ing planes. So you can see ack- ack Isn’t anything to laugh at. It is different from the Infan try but we had quite a job to do.” ‘ ■ HERE AND THERE iPRODVCTlON QUOTA The production committee of the Red Cross has received its quota of 100 bed socka and 25 paira of pajamas to be made by the Davie chapter members.

Mr. Garrison said youth must have guidance and discipline and that it was the job of adults to provide such training. If guidance is not pro vided the post-war era wiU wit ness conditions undreamed of, he stated. The speaker cited the case of a 17-year-old SaUsbury youth who killed a workman last Mon day afternoon because he was being "kidded.” He attributed the act to an only chUd from a good home who had been spoiled and was never taught discipline. Mr. Garrison said much oT the so-caUed juvenUe delinquency was attributable to adult deUn- quency, either in the home, school or church, primarily the former. He cited the conditions under which youth was living today with many adults at war, away from home on war jobs, or school rooma void of the ablest teachers. The speaker praised the vol untary work which has been done in Dayto county by scout leaders, mentioning Mrs. Knox Johnstone, Bryan Sell and Bob McNeUl. He urged Rotarians to aid in the work whenever ask ed, Asserting they were their brother’s keeper. Bob MicNelU, who waa In charge of the program and who presented Mr. Garrison, exten uated the remarks of the latter ded the remarks of the latter club assume aa a project the re- sponslbUity of getting the city park cleaned up or ask the town board to close the park in order to forestaU it being used At night for immoral purposes by the youth of the community.

Plans were being made to start a dally newspaper in Brit- ish-occupled Germany. At pres ent, seven newspapers appe^ared twice weekly, distributing al most 4,000,000 copies. News of local affairs reached the newspapers toy primitive means, ranging from men on bi cycles to milk carts. All of It was written by German journal ists. NEWSOFFARM CONSERVATION By G. W. McCLELLAN Sam Stroud, near County Line; Is making preparations to sow •his first alfalfa patch this fall. He Is disking in red clover, apply ing lime and Is planning to use 30 pounds of borax and 700 pounds 2-12-12 fertilizer before seeding with 30 pounds of com mon alfalfa. Mr. Stroud Is going to sell grade A milk and will try to develop his pastures and per manent hay crops as he goes along. Dan and John Albert Miller, near Cherry Hill Church, are making preparations to sow a- round four acres of alfalfa on some land they have had in sweet clover. They will disk under the clover stubble and follow the latest recommendations. Terry Rice Burton put in eight acres of alfalfa for Mrs. W. H. Woodson near Jerusalem Church last fall. Mrs. Woodson is so well pleased with the hay from the field seeded last fall, they have decided to sow eighteen acres this fall. B. S. Neely, near Cana, sowed one acre of alfalfa last fall. Mr. Neely is well pleased with this and plans to sow two and one- half acres more this fall. J. L. Boger, near Cana, sowed seven acres of alfalfa last fall and will sow three more acres this fall. Mr. Boger’s cows showed a prompt increase in milk when he began feeding his alfalfa hay this summer. Farmers should see their county agent, Agricultrue Teach er or the District Personnel about establishing alfalfa.

Rats can be controlled—with the aid of concrete. Ratproof and sanitary, firesafe and thrifty ... concrete is particularly well suited for granaries, poultry and hog houses, bam and feeding floors, milk houses and cooling tanks, manure pits and other structures needed for increased food production. There is no shortage of concrete materials for necessary farm construction, repairs and improvements. Concrete farm buildings are moderate In first cost.

R. Nlswonger, Hor ticultural specialist of the State college extension service. Nlswonger J Suggested that plantings of the following vege tables in August and July should result in an increase amount of these crops: Set out plants of broccoli, Chinese cabbage, tomatoes, cau liflower, and celery in July. If plants are not available, the seed of these vegetables, except celery, can be sown directly in the garden row and the plants ■thinned to stand 18 Inches apart in the row. In August, plant seed of en dive, turnips, rutabagas, rape, mustard, Seventop turnips, or the Shogoin variety for greens and leaf lettuce. Collard seed can also toe planted thinly to- the garden row or In hills and plants thinned to stand - 18 Inches apart. Wise the thinned plants for early greens. Make a note of a new leaf let tuce variety to be aded to your list of vegetables for next year. It is called Slobolt, a variety de veloped by the U. s. Departmont of agriculture. Seed will be of fered for sale by seedsman hi 1946. 'This variety does not go to seed quickly in hot weather and can be cut for a period of several weeks. It is spaced in the row 10 to 12 inches apart and harvested by taking the lower leaves. If you planted celery seed In June as suggested in a previous garden reminder, the plants should be set in the garden around August 1.

FORK ^Honh Cflrolini TIME RIPE FOR AN APPOINTMENT A vacancy In the Supreme Court of the United States opens an opportunity, not only for the righting of a wrong, but the enlistment of the services of an able man in the highest court in the land. Judge John J. Parker is . a Republican, whose conviction thereof may have pre vented him from receiving the political due him, but has never served to lessen the high esteem and appreciation of his homefolks, both Republican and Democratic. Dem ocrats in office and out of office have made honest effort to secure for Judge Parker the national recognition w;hlch he flo righly deserves. Such men as he are sorely heed ed in the high places of government today, and the Dem ocratic party could honor itself as well as the man by the President’s'appointing him, to the vacancy on the Supreme Court bench. Judge Parker possesses all of the necessary qualifications, both in i«gard to character and ability. Men of all political faiths have linlted in giving testi mony to these facts and his apix)lntment would bring universal satisfaction in North Carolina regardless of party affiliations. We are ourselves of the Democratic faith, but we be lieve that the needs of th^ hour, as well as justice and the fitness« of things, demahd that the party In power avail Itself of every opportunity to secure men of char acter and ability whose Americanism rises above parti sanship. It has been said that “no prophet is without honor save in his own country,” but Judge Parker is an exception to that rule. His home state, regardless of po litical parties, love him with a sincere devotion, and re spect him for his character and ability. GOOD NEIGHBOR POUCY We are very much aware of the fact that there are differences between Russia and the United States which snake It difficult for each to come to an understanding of the other. We are not sympathetic towards a number of things which Russia has done, and is doing. In her attitude towards small nations. But there are a few things about which we have some definite opinions. Among them: 1. We are not only suspicious of those elements whose pro-Fascist leanings are betrayed ini their attack upon Russia, but we definitely and vigorously protest their ac tions. Even if it is a high dignitary of the Roman Church, such as Mgr. Fulton J. Sheen, who in a recent address in Louisville, Ky., denounced Russia, we view that action as a definite betrayal of a sympathy with totalitarian governments which have nothing in'common with De mocracy. Indeed, it savors of a totalitarian Church which even now is seeking to revive to power its never-surrender ed claim to be the only Church and the only guardians of morality and religion. We cannot forget that the Franco regime in Spain had the blessing of that Church, and that Franco was, , and still Is, sympathetic with Nazi Germany. We know that there are grounds for criticism of some of Russia’s attitudes and actions, but before we form our estimate of them we have become accustomed to investigate their souraes. We are no longer surprised when we discover from whence they emanate. 2. If we are going to have a Good Neighbor Policy towards all nations it means that somebody, some nation, some people are going to have to go about the business of creating friendships and good will. We must try to understand Russia, and try to help Russia understand us. that there are still some Fascist-minded people In the United States, and quite a large group of religionists who would like to see this country take a stand against Rus sia—not for the sake of the country but for tlie sake of their own philosophies. We would be the last to advocate a policy of appease ment, and there are some things to which we must re main faithful. There are times when we must protest actions and policies, but this does not mean wholesale condemnation of Russia. We can. work with Russia with out antagonizing her. We can be loyal to principles with out being critical and antagonistic. We must not forget Tlie accident record for farm woricm l3 three times as seri- \OUS as it is for tactory worlcers, and yet It is probable that farm people may live and worlc under safer conditions tlian maiiy factory worlcers do.> Three cooperative wool sales in North Carolina have brought sheep growers a total of $18,- 862.62, it is reported by Hazel L.

R. Collins, agronomy specialist of .the State college extension serv ice. Picking weeds on a piant bed is a back-breaking and time- consuming Job, Dr. Collins points out. The plants are frequently dEunaged, the root system is dis turbed, and diseases may be easily spread to healthy plants. It is an accepted practice to control plant bed weeds with chemicals at the experiment sta-r tion farms. Many farmers are also finding up to 95 per cent control of weeds when chemi cals are correctly applied. Poor weed con'trol is sometinies re ported due to Incomplete mixing with the soil, late application, or breeding the soil too deep at the time the seeds are planted. Therefore, directions should be followed carefully In treating plant beds. The correct methods are discussed here In order to avoid failures from incorrect ap plications. Consideration Should be given to your specific conditions in se lecting the chemical to use. Cyanamid and Uramon have both given satisfactory weed control. Uramon has given out standing control of soil-borne disease (root knot, black root rot ,and Granville wilt). This permits permanent plant bed sites at convenient locations where the soil type is suitable and there is a good supply of running water. Cyanamid does not ciontrol soil^bome diseases. Cyanamid should be used on tihe dark col ored, low-land soils of the Coastal Plains, because lOlramon has not been too satisfactory on this type of soil. Cyanamid is also preferred on the clay soils of the Old Belt area where Ura mon has given some unsatisfac tory results. The USDA is offering for sale to the original processors 1,809 oases of canned tomatoes.

CARS Removal of the remaining small supply of new 1942 ‘cars from all rationing restrictions was announced by OPA. “Beginning July 18, 1945, dealers who still have new 1942 cars In stock may sell them to any buyer without ration ing restrictions," Max McCullough, Deputy Administra tor for Rationing, said. LABOR ON MOVE CAN GET TIRES Passenger car owners using their automobiles for a bona fide change of residence for which they were issued special gasoline rations will be eligible beginning July 16, 1945,,for Grade I passenger tire purchase certificates, sub ject to quota and other restrictions, OPA announced. This extension of eligibility is particularly needed now that in creasing numbers of persons are moving from one city to another OF|A explained. It will allow the following groups to apply for View tires if they have a tire failure while mak ing a permanent change of residence: i 1. War workers moving from one city to another as production shifts from one type of war goods to another and to civUian commodities. 2. Members of the armed forces moving to a new post. 3. Discharged war veterans returning home or moving to another city to accept a Job. VETERANS’ FAMINES CAN GET WAR HOUSING Distressed families of returning veterans and of men in service have been made eligible for vacant privately- financed war housing on the same terms as in-migrant essential civilian war workers. Administrator John B. Blandford, Jr., of the National Housing Agency, announ ced. Distressed families are those who cannot fhid suit able accommodations at rents they can afford in housing built without wartime priorities, Mr. Blandford said. Mr. Blandford emphasized that priority war housing hitherto restricted to war workers cannot be sold or rented "to any one,” even families of veterans, if it means the eviction of essential war workers and their families. The new regulation apply only to vacant imits or those that become vacant. CIVILIANS CAN GET ANTIMALARIAL DRUGS An adequate supply of effective antimalarlal medica tion is available for civilian medication needs, WPB re ported. The military services have notified WPB that a small percentage of veterans now being discharged from the services will require some form of antimalarlal treat ment during periods of relapse of this disease. WPB has assured the military that such medication is available through normal trade channels for civilians needs. Ruffled A minister was in the habit of buying produce from one ot his farmer members.

C. state College For easier and more success ful home dressmaking, clothing specialist suggest a few unusual Hems that may be collected around the house lor the sew ing box: Cornstarch, sewed <up in a small bag (or French chalk, If obtainable) is a hot-weather sewing convenience. Dust it on palms of hands to absorb per spiration when working on white or light-colored fabrics. When not in use, wrap the bag with paper to keep it clean. Tweezers are useful for pluck ing out threads which have been caught in machine stitching. An ordinary building brick, padded and covered with cloth, is convenient for holding goods firm when basting or hemming by hand. Place the brick on the sewing table and pin goods to it. Waxed paper wrapped around scissors prevents rusting In hot humid weather. Rust also gives trouble on needles and pins. Keep needles In the black paper wrap per In which ithey came. Store Pins In a small, tightly-covered box, or in a clean cold-cream jar with a screw top. Use fine sand paper, steel wool, or an emery bag to remove rust from pins and needles, but never leave needles In an emery bag because they are likely to rust there. Small cuts, cracks or scratches In the surface of linoleum may be partly healed by occasionally rubbing with boiled linseed oil. liave the surface clean and dry before rubbing In the oil.

A cold-water soak is recom mended for loosening starchy foods, like dough or cereal, and also for eggs and milk. A hot-water soak Is best for uten- tlls which have held sugary foods like sirup or icing because sugar dissolves faster In hot than In cold water. Greasy utensils should have all possible grease removed—to save for cooking use later or salvage-^nd then should be wiped out with paper and allow ed to soak In hot water contain ing a little baking soda.

MORE ABOUT Ration Books live at home, is eligible for War Ration Book Five. About 23,000,> ООО motoriste are entitled to re ceive the new “A” gasoline book. “H ie gigantic nature ot this task is obvious. Frobably it is the biggest distribution Job ever undertaken in tlils or any other country. But we know from ex perience that the teachers and school officials are fully equal to the task. Many people will ¡remember the smooth, efficient way in which they handled the distribution of War Ration Book Four. This time they are called on to do an even bigger Job. We ore grateful to them. We believe tooÿ that millions of Americans ,wlU appreciate and applaud itlhelr patriotic wartime service.” WAR RATION BOOK FIVE The new all-purposo ration hook will measure 5-U -ie inches by 2-1-8 hiches. Over all, it Is exactly one-hairthe size of the present ration % books, Books Three and Four, and contolns Just half as many stamps as were in Book Four—192 stamps In Book Five as compared with 384 in Book Four. The stamps In Had Leave V BRUCE SEDBERRY Bruce Sedberry ot the U. S. N. has recently spent a 30-day leave bere “visiting his father, E, K. Sedberry, and other relative*. He baa recently returned to tbe U. 8. after spending two years in ttaraolfle. the new book, however, will t>e the same size as the stamps now in use.. Housewives will find the new “small check book” style ration book much more convenient to carry and handle. At the current rate of making stamps good—five ired ' stamps and five blue stamps at the be ginning of each month—War Ration Book Five can last, if needed, about 15 months. One hundred and fifty mil lion copies of Bdok Five axe now being printed. The cost of print ing and dipping to distribution centers will be approximately $750,000. The cost of printing and shipping a book containing as many stamps as Book Four would have been a little more than twice that amount. The book will contain 48 red stamps numbered from 11 thru, 58 for use in the meat-fats pro gram. There will be 48 blue pro cessed food stamps, also num bered from 11 through 68. There will be 12 sugar stamps,j num bered from 23 through 34, and 12 shoe stamps, numbered from 11 through 22. The book will also contain 72 “spare” stamps—34 of them green stamps numbered from 35 through 58, and 48 of them brown stamps numbered 89 thru 100. These spare stamps will be available for use In extending the life of the book to approx imately 15 months If needed. The last full set of five blue stamps in War Ration Book Four will become good on September 1. The final set of five red stamps will be validated a month later, on October 1. Since War Ration Book Five, containing the new red and blue stamps, will not go Into use be fore January 1, 1046, it will be necessary to use other stm ps in Book Four as substitutes for p r o c ^ d food and meat-fa,ts stamps during the interim pe riod. Interim period uae of ahM and sugar stamps will not ' be necessary since the stamps pro vided for these items in Books Three and Four will carry the programs wthout resort to sub- otitutions. Interim use of other stamps in Book Four after all blue and red stamps are validated will permit a considerable money saving. The saving will come from the fact that maximum possible use will be made of the remaining stamps in Book Four, and because the life of the in coming Book Five thereby will be lengthened. War Ration Book Five will be the fourth war ration book to be dUtril^uted by school teach ers and other volunteers. On May 4,1942, dlstrlbuitW ot Book One began at school houses and other public buildings through out the country. Book Two was distributed In the same way, beginning February 23,1943. War Ration Book Three was distrib uted by mail, beginning June 20, 1943. Distribution of Book Four got under way at school houses on October 18, 1943.
