INFLATION CAN BRING DISASTER
TO FARMERS AND FAMILIES
Inflation, or a runaway price
situation in these postwar days
because of an unprecedented
demand for civilian goods and
services, can easily spell disaster
for many farmers and their
families as they struggle with
reconversion problems that come
after the war.
Farm management specialists
of the Extension Service at State
College point to the dangers of
inflation as outlined by the
postwar policy committee of the
Association of Land-Grant Col
leges and Universities in a re
cent release.
The committee declared, “Any
decided rise In prices and wage
rates during this period will
greatly add to farm costs. . , .
When war demands taper off,
shortages of farm products are
likely to be replaced by sur
pluses. If prices are allowed to
get out pf hand now, farm prices
may nose-dive while many items
of farm expenses stay up."
Many farmers still remember
what happened after World War
I .when farm land prlqes soared;
Savings of a lifetime may be
lost if price controls are lifted
before dangers of a speculative
boom are past. Not only farmers
but also returning war veterans
may be the vlotims of exhorbit-
ant land prioea.
"As rapidly as the war effort
permits, the threat of inflation
should be tempered by speedy
expansion and resumption of
production to meet civilian
needs,” the committee said. "But
controls are needed until sup
plies again are adequate to
meet requirements at reason
able prices. Additional controls,
particularly to limit and dis
courage land speculation, are in
order."
The cook who saves time by
putting sweet potatoes in the
oven or kettle without peeling
also saves vitamins, say nutri
tionists of' the USDA.
"Shortening and cooking and
salad oils will not be plentiful
for many months to come,”
stated Secretary ot Agriculture
Clinton P. Anderson.
Peanuts will be Just as Im
portant to the nation’s economy
after the war as they were dur
ing the war, according to the
United States Department of
Agriculture.
A small amount of soda can
shorten the cooking time of
green peas about half without
loss of vitamins. Vw only a
pinch. .
Mocksville will have a modem
furniture plant in the near fu*
ture. A one-story building 80x600
feet, almost fireproof, will be
erected on land which already
has been purchased Just across
the railroad thracks opposite the
Southern Railway depot here.
The owners of the business «111
be T. .Henry Wilson and associ
ates. Mr. Wilson lives in Morgan
ton and Is the former general
manager and vice president of
Drexel Furniture Company. He is
nationally recognized as,one of
the outstanding furniture manu
facturers of this country. Drexel
has plants at Morganton, Marlon
and Drexel.
The owners will invest between
$125,000 and $150,000 in the plant
alone. They will employ between .
125 and 150 people, about 20 per
cent of which will be women.. TOe
annual payroll will be hetwe^n
$225,000 and $300,000.
Construction of the plant la
expected to begin very soon.
Announcement of the new con
cern was made Tuesday at a
meeting of the Mocksville Rotary
club by R. B. Sanford, chairman
of a Rotary committee named
some time ago to aid in securing
the plant for Mocksville. Other
members of the committee are
Dr. S. A. Harding, E. C. Morris
and Robert S. McNeill. This com
mittee showed various prospec
tive sites to Mr. Wilson and his
associates here recently and they
chose the one at the depot. This
land, between eight and ten
acres, was owned by Mr. Morris
and he sold it for a very reason
able price. Mr. Wilson stated that
he wished to express his ap
preciation to Mr. Morris, Mr. San
ford said in telling of the pur
chase. Mr. McNeill has also
agreed to check titles of the
land without any charge.
Mr. Sanford appealed before
the town commissioners and
members of the board unani
mously voted to give all possible'
assistance to the new company.
Drexel furniture bears an en
viable reputation and much of
its success has been due to Mr.
Wilson. It is expected that he .
will manufacture furniture which
will be nationally advertised, re
flect prestige on Mocksville and
Davie county and bring a payroll
here which runs between $750
and $1,000 each working day.
The type of furniture to be made
will be announced later. Mr. Wil
son stated that High Point does
not have a finer furniture plant
than the one they plan to build
here.
The 'Rotary committee will
continue to function somewhat
as an agent for Mr. Wilson and
his associates until the project le
completed.
Jesse Pritchard was ih charge
of Tuesday's Rotary program and
he presented Rev. Reid Wall of
Winston-0alem who is,bolding

speakers, the other being Lieut.
Oov. L. Y. Ballentlne, who spoke
to the approximately 200 mem
bers of the Davle corporation on
the Masonic picnic grounds.
The electrification representa
tive said North Carolina now h.4s
electricity on 40 per cent of Us
farms, reaching 267,000 rural
families. During the war, he said,
80,000 families, schools, churches,
etc., have signed up for elec
tricity under the rural electrlfl
cation program. Price estimated
that within fiur or five years
North Carolina would have 500,-
000 rural electric consumers at
an Investment of $200,000,000.
Rural telephones, he added,
will also be a common thing on
North Carolina farms within a
few years. Price said. He pledged
his wholehearted support to the
development of rural telephone
service In the State, saying that
the last Oeneral Assembly had
put that project under the su
pervision of his office.
'Lieut. Oov. Ballentlne, also
speaking on behalf of rural
electrification, said, "You can’t
develop a country in darkness."
He pointed out that the elec
tric light Is an essential part of
modern civilization, but added
that the light is one of the least
advantages of electricity on a
farm.
"We have no frontiers today
as we once did,” Ballentlne con
tinued. ‘‘Our greatest frontier to
day Is In the laboratory. This
need not be surrounded by four
walls but can mean research in
the forest, hills and land.
“Farmers must take advantage
of new developments If they are
to keep up with modern industry.
Agriculture cannot be successful
unless It has a market provided
by Industry. And It cannot com
pete with Industry unless it has
a more economical output. Farm
ers, like industry, must plan and
avoid working on a hit-or-miss
scale.”
He.estlmated that 15 to 18 per
cent of the total population- will
some day be sufficient to produce
food for all.
Treasurer J. S. Dobson of the
Davle Electric Membership Cor
poration reported that the cor
poration had Increased by 175

1,945 members, with a total of

Since Pearl Harbor ¡267 addition
al miles of lines 'have been sign
ed up for, by 767 families,

said, will become members as
soon as restrictions on electrical
materials are released.
K. B. Sanford, Jr., attorney for

half dollars of more per pound.
This price prevents wide usage
of the seed. These men are going
to sow the above mixture In
some lowland and expect to save
seed at a later time to increase
their acreage;.
Ladlno Clover is a giant white
Dutch clover. It has larger leaves
than white Dutch, It has longer
stems, and usually pegs down at
each joint as it creeps along
the ground. It grows well with
orchard and redtop grass. Any
farmer interested in this crop
can get first hand information
from Wade Oroce at Cana as he
has been very successful with
this plant in pasture mixtures.
S. Clyde Hutchens near Cana
had some terraces built on a
small farm two miles out the
Mocksvllle-Winston-Sales high
way. This is the first terracing
work done along the Winston
road. Farmers are invited to look
at these terraces from time to
time as they come into Mocks
ville.

Recipe Offered On
Stains For Floors
Hom^ economics specialists of
the State College Extension Serv
ice have proposed a recipe for
making water stains for the
floors of homes.
These specialists recommend
the use of one gallon of water to
one peck of gren walnut hulls
and allow the water to remain
over the hulls for 48 hours.
Strain offs and apply to the
clean, dry floor. Test the stain
on pieces of board like the floor
on which It is to be applied.
If the color Is darker than you
desire, add water to it. If it is
lighter than you like, add one
or more teaspoons of permanga
nate of potash.
Further information on stains,
floor wax, and liquid wax may
be secured by writing to Ruth
Current, State home demonstra
tion agent of the State College
Extension Service In Raleigh.

They Will Be Coming Home
It will require quite sometime to demobilize the armed
forces of the United States, but in due time they will be
coming back, ready and anxious to resume their places in
the natural, normal life which they lived before they went
away.
They wlil be different in some respects—they will be
older, they will have had the sort of experiences which
make men wiser and more sober. But otherwise they will
be the same persohs as when they went away, and we shall
iwftitft a mistake if we treat them as if their experiences
had made them abnormal persons. Home will mean the
same, though more prized, and they will want to go back
to work and enjoy the home life of which they have been
deprived. They were, and are, our own—affection, kindness,
Justice, opportunity are all that they ask.
This county will share In the homecomings of mil
lions of U. S. soldiers. The men from our community have
given good accoimt of themselves, and reflect honor upon
their commiuilty and state. They will find warm hearts
to welcome them, and a people who are grateful for the
Job which they have done.
The men who worked in the various places will come
back to their old Jobs If they wish them, and will be given
every opportunity which the mill and community afford to
resume life on a normal scale. They will not come. In all
probability, in one group, but singly and in small groups.
But for one, or for himdreds, the welcome mat is out. We
are going to be just as happy to have them home as they
will be to get here. There will come a time for public cele
bration, but we believe that the celebration which the boys
will, like best is Just the opportunity to come back and be
one of us again.
Living Memorials
Living memorials was the subject of an article by'
Katherine Olover In a recent Issue of Survey Midmonthly.
Briefly the author sketched the trend of the war memorial
irom the glorification of generals to the symbolic recogni
tion of war’s heroes such as the beautiful Memorial Bridge
across the Potomac River in Washington.
Public sentiment more and more approves the idea of
living memorials to men and women, who have given their
all in the present war, “to serve Ufe rather than memoralize
death.”
In this Idea lies an opportunity for local units of state
societies to serve their community by some worthwhile me
morial as a lasting tribute to their service men. More and
better camps for crippled children are needed, recreation
centers, rehabilitation centers, schools, convalescent homes,
playgrounds, and libraries.
Such ideals lend themselves to the poet’s pen. Milli-
cent'Easter in a few verses expresses her thoughts in “For
All Our Boys.”
In Memory of me, you wouldn’t erect
A dreary stone that would reflect—
No thought of joy or living things.
Or hope, for which the whole world sings.
I ask that you go plant a tree
To cast a shadow cool, for me.
A tree to bless the weary earth.
Or any monument of vital worth!
In haimtlng memory, on marble cold, '
I want no story of my valor told.
Forlorn and desolate, they stand for years.
Despair they bring, and lonely tears.
Instead, I beg you plan a place, ,
A playground—where children race,
A little lake—a bathing beach,
A happy place—in easy reach.
For all the Boys—on sea or land,
For all the Flyers— who victory planned.
From the Spirit World—We unite our pleas—
For playgrounds—pools—and glorious trees!
No futile plies of stone to mar,
The landscape view—both near and far!
Dead monuments are but idle toys—
Give living things for our noble boys!
Don’t plant wheat in grazing
crop mixtures because ol the
danger ot Hessian tly damage,
says J. Myron Maxwell ot atate
College.
John Arey, in charge ot Exten
sion dairying at State College,
says that It's -a mistake to try
to grow a good permanent pa«?
ture on waste land.
MANY PARENTS ATTEND THE
OPENING OF COOLEEMEE SCHOOL
I was "back-to-school" for a
large number of parents as well
as tor the children of the Cool
eemee district on Wednesday of
last week. The school got off to
a good start as nearly all ot the
children entered on the first day
of school. Books were distributed
and pupils were getting assign
ments on the second day.
A large number of mothers and
a few fathers came to school with
their children on the first day.
Their presence Indicated the fact
that they were intensely inter
ested in their children and in
the educational facilities which
are offered to them. The teachers
of the school are hoping that
this will not be their last visit
during this school year but that
they will come back from time to
time to see what the children
are doing on a normal school
day.
AUDITORIUM FILLED
All seats on the main floor
ot the auditorium and many ot
those in the balcony were tilled
at the assembly on Wednesday
morning. The Rev, Prank Wash
burn had charge of the devotion-
als. After the anouncements were
made by O. R, Madison, Mr. Cur
tis Price, county superintendent,
talked to the group. He stressed
the fact that the superinten
dent’s office was open to all
teachers, pupils, and parents
and that It Is his purpose to work
with them for a good school
system In Darle county,
SHORT SCHEDULE
The school will operate on a
short schedule during the harvest
season. Parents are asked to co
operate by keeping their child
ren in school as regularly as
possible,
COMPULSORY ATTENDANCE
The compulsory attendance
age has been raised trom four
teen to fifteen for this school
year, and It will go to sixteen
next year. All children between
the ages ot seven and fifteen
are expected to attend school
every day unless they have a
good excuse for being absent,
ENROLLMENT
At the end of the fourth day
ot school the enrollment had
reached a total of 655. That fig
ure Is a little above what it was
at the close ot school last spring.
With the war over, It la believed
that there will be more boys
and girls returning to the class
rooms, Many ot them stopped to
take war jobs, and with many
of the war plants closing down,

POINT VALUES DOWN
Point values for nearly all meats, all cheeses, creamery
butter, and margarine will be reduced sharply and canned
milk will be point-free during the rationing period begin
ning September 2 and ending September 29, Chester Bowles,
administrator of OPA, says.
Steaks and roasts will be from two to three points less
a pound; hamburger will be a two-points per-pound bar
gain, down from 4; and reductions for cuts of lamb and veal
range from one to three points. Pork steaks, chops and
roasts are down one to two points; all bacon is down two
pohits, and spareribs are down three points, ....early all
meats that now have a value of two or three points a pound
are reduced one point. The new point value for creamery
butter Is 12 points a pound. Margarine is down from 14 to
12 points a pound. Points for all kinds of rationed cheeses
have been cut 50 per ecent.
MEDICAL CARE
Following through a recommendation made by Con
gress, the Children’s Bureau, U. S. Department of Labor,
announced that wives and babies of recently discharged
service men, under certain conditions, are now eligible to
receive medical and hospital care imder the Emergency Ma
ternity and Infant Care program. A service man’s wife may
now apply at any State health department for the care for
herself and for her baby after her husband’s honorable dis
charge for service, provided that at any time during her
pregnancy he was In the fourth, fifth, sixth or seventh pay
grades of the services or was &n aviation cadet, l^e same
holds true In case the husband or father is promoted, a
prisoner of war, missing in actioii, or dead,
IIMPROPÈDÇAS
Improved qualities of regular and premium grades of
gasoline about to come on the market will cost consumers
no moire than the lower qualities of thèse grades produced
for civilian use during the war, OPA says. Regular grade
gasoline sold since mld-1944 has been generally about 70
octane, but this octane rating will move up to at least the
normal level of 72 to 74 octane and may in some cases be
in excess of 75 octane, according to advices received by
OPA from the Industry. Premium grade gasoline is also
being improved, and, as a result, OPA has lifted the mini
mum octane rating qualifying for the premium grade ceU-
ings from 75 octene to 78 octane. .
USE POTATOES NOW
Full use immediately of potatoes from "intermediate”
states Is urged by the Department of Agriculture. The ,“In
termediate” crop Is expected to total about 32.7 million
bushels and can fill a gap In the nation’s food supply. An
other important reason why these potatoes should be used
now, Agriculture offiicals say Is that while they are of good
quality and many are storable, they do not keep as well as
the late varieties. In addition, storage facilities are now
fairly limited. Potatoes harvested in hot summer months
can only be stored in cool places, and most growers prefer
to'use precious refrigeration for other foodstuffs. That
makes storage of large supplies of potatoes now uneconomi
cal from the growers’ viewpoint. The answer to the problem,
the Agriculture officials add, is simply: “Use spuds now! ”
CLASS 2 SLAUGHTER
A substantial increase in Class 2 (non-federally in
spected) slaughter percentages for cattle, calves and hogs
for quota periods beginning on or after August 26, 1945,
was announced by OPA. The slaughter percentage for cat
tle is increased from last month’s 100 per cent to 125 per
cent to 125 per cent; the percentage for calves is in
creased from the former 75 per cent to 100 per cent; and
for hogs, from the former 50 per cent to 65 per cent.
The slaughter percentage for sheep and lambs remains
unchanged at 110 per cent.
TRUCKS TO FARMERS
The Surplus Property Board has ceased allocating sur
plus trucks to farmers and farm cooperatives and will re
lease, for regular disposal, trucks, recently allocated to
farmers and not yet sold. It was announced by the Board,
Farmers who wish to purchase surplus trucks should con
tact a local truck dealer as the vehicles will be disposed
of through normal channels, with no need for certification.
Rubber toys for Christmas are in prospect as well as
thousands of other familiar objects that disappeared dur
ing the war years, according to the Rubber Bureau of WLB,
which has lifted all restrictions on products manufactured
of reclaimed and scrap rubber and all synthetic rubber ex
cept butyl, the special-purpose type used chiefly for tire
inner tubes. Natural rubber as well as butyl remains under
rigid control.
Other items freed include combs, beach balls, bath
ing caps and rubber beach bags; bath mats, bottle stoppers,
hair curlers and such household items as rubber gloves,
rubber fly swatters, soap dishes, dish drains and squeegee
window wipers. WPB’s action also permits the use of sponge
rubber ih cushions and mattresses, rubber for unrestricted
manufacture of weatherstripplng, stair treads, rubber floor
ing, battery cases and such automobile manufacturing uses
as pedal pads and floor mats.
Sport shoes and cleats, hockey pucks, boxes’ rubber
mouthpieces and a number of other athletic goods items
will te made available in greater quantities.

Hay Driers Offer
Several Advantages
The use of barn-type hay
driers for the curing of forage
crops is becoming more wide
spread in North Carolina, and
Prof. David S. Weaver, agricul
tural engineer of the State Col
lege Extension Service, says that
his department Is receiving many
requests from farmers about the
installation and operation of
such systems.
Using the need for a compe
tent agricultural engineer to In
stall the equipment and offfer-
Ing the services of his depart
ment to aid with with the work.
Professor Weaver declared:
In regard to the length of time
necessary to secure aU of the
necessary equipment, build the
ducts, ' and connect the motor
with the source of power, our
experience leads us to believe
that at least 30 days, and prob-
ably‘60 to 90 days will elapse be
fore all purchases can be made
and thè system put In operation.
It is true that motors and blow
ers, together with other electrical
equipment, should become more
readily available.
The agency serving the farm
with i electric power should be
consulted as to availability, vol
tage, and phase. They should be
Informed that à hay drier takes
a 5-horse power motor, usually,
and sometimes a 7 1-2-horse
power motor. A statenient from
them that they are able to sup
ply power should be obtained be
fore further consideration of the
hay drier Is gone Into.
There are a number of con
siderations to be taken into ac
count in the satisfactory oper
ation of a hay drying system.
Considerable knowledge has been
accumulated, which if used, will
save the new operator many mis
takes. Such things as the han
dling of the hay; the amount to
be put on the hay drier at one
time, the depth of the layers,
the length of period of opera
tion ,the question of shutting off
the f ^ at night, or during hu
mid days, and many other
practices are involved.
Further information may be
obtained by writing to Professor
Weaver ctt State College in Ral
eigh.

Suggestions Offered
On Soap Manufacture
Extension specialists In home
economics at State Colege, eager
to aid rural women with their
soap-making preparations, offer
the following suggestions in re
gard to clarifying the fat, the lye
mixture, and other factors:
Waste fats may be used for
soap making. Place fat and a
flllced raw potato In a large
quantity of water and bring to
a boil. Strain through a muslin
cloth and cool. When cold remove
fat from water. Repeat if fat
had been salted. Then heat fat
until it stops crackling, indicating
that it is free from moisture. Al
low to become cold but not to
solidify before combining with
lye.
Pour lye into water and stir
occasionally until dissolved, Al
low to become cold. Caution; Use
enamelware or Iron utensils. To
make the soap, pour the lye into
' grease slowly stirring constantly.
Beat until of consistency of
strained honey. Sufficient air
stirred into soap makes it float.
To mold the material, pour
Into pans or boxes lined with
waxed paper. When set. score
with knife for cutting. At end of
18 to 24 hours remove from con
tainer and cut with pliable wire
or strong cord. Set away for 5
or 6 weeks before using. This al
lows complete union of fat and
alkali. An alkali free soap should
result.
Place a piece of red litmus
paper against a freshly cut edge
of soap. If free alkali is present
it will immediately turn blue.
In order to make strong laun
dry soap, add one-half cup of
ammonia and one-fourth cup of
borax to fat and mix well be
fore adding lye. These alkalies
are not harmful to hands and
fabrics but are to delicate col
ors.
Guard Against Roof Fires
IWEARtiY one third of the annual 'I'' Are damage in the United States results from flames which consume farm property. The tremendous loss is due largely to the lack of adequate flre>flghtlng equipment to prevent the spread of flames from one building to another, and to tha nearly universal use of inflammable construction on farms.In most cases flres spread be- cause'flying brands from a burning building fall on roofs of other buildings. Farmers in Increasing numbers are realizing the need for roof protection against flre and are using. flreproof materials in re< roofing old buildings or in new construction.
One of the most widely used flreproof rooflng materials today is asbestos cement shingles, which
will not burn. Unless the existing
roof is in very bad condition, asbes
tos shingles can be applied directly on top of it. In some cases, how
ever, It is necessary to remove the old rooflng before the asbestos
shingles or any other type of roof
covering are laid. In addition to
Srotecting the building from' roof res, asbestos shingles v/ill make a strong cover that will resist wind,
rain and snow. They will not rot
and will last the life of the building.

Many Yadkin Farmers
Lose Tobacco Bams
Every year there are many
Yadkin county farmers who
suffer heavy losses from tobacco
barns burning while full of
cured or partly cured tobacco.
While this heavy loss is not con
fined to the Yadkin county to
bacco section by any means,
enough barn losses of fine qual
ity leaf have been reported this
year to place Yadkin among the
heavy losses by this cause. While
it would be impossible to find
out the names of all tobacco
farmers who have lost tobacco by
fire alone, we will mention a few
irom different sections of the
county who have suffered such
losses. There have been reports
of many other such losses, but
these haven’t been verified.
In the Shady Grove section,
Edgar Brown was the loser of
a fine barn by fire; A. 0. Stin
son of Boonvllle lost one barn;
L. C. Brooks a few miles north
of Yadklnvllle lost a barn last

FARM QUESTIONS
ARE ANSWERED
Q. How can nut grass be con
trolled?
A. About the only workable
plan Is continous cultivation of
the land at every fwo-week in
tervals throughout two growing
aeasons, says Dr. Roy Loworn,
forage crops expert of the Agri
cultural Experiment Station at
State College. “This does not
necessarily have to be deep cul
tivation, but should be be Just
deep enough to destroy the grow
ing parts,” he explains. “I real
ize that-this recommendation in
volves a lot of trouble, but it will
work, if pursued diligently.”
Q. Will tlhere be any mechanic-
alcotton pickers operating in
North Carolina during the com
ing Kason?
A. It Is reported tliat there will
be one mechanical picker in
Robeson county and about 20
strippers, principally in Harnett,
Scotland, and Union counties.
The leaves of the cotton must be
removed by chemicals in order
for these machines to do the best
Jobs. Cotton Is easily stained by
green leaves and this makes dye
ing of cotton difficult.
:j ■ ----------- '-I-
Q. Will a dust composed of one
part of fermate and seven parts
of prophyllte filler control to
mato leaf and fruit diseases?
A. This type of fumlcldal dust
is now being tested in 9 moun
tain counties by county agents
and growers under the super
vision of Howard R. Oarris, Ex
tension plant pathologist at Qtate
College. It will be checked against
“no treatment’ and also against
other fumlcldal dusts and sprays
In order to have early spring
onions next year, It Is necessary
to plant; seed or sets sometime
during the fall, advise horticul
turists of the State College Ex
tension Service,
Broiler Costs Have
Increased 10 Per Cent
The average cost of produc
ing broilers during the summer
and fall of 1944 and the spring
of 1945 was 76.2 cento for each
three-pound bird sold, but this
cost has now Increased to 83.8
cents, says a preliminary rejport
by R. E. L. Oreene and H.
Brooks James of the Economics
Department of the Agricultural
Experiment Station at State
College.
The study was made in Cha
tham county and the records of
farmers, feed dealers, and hatch
erymen were studied. In many
cases the feed dealers produced
records showing the number of
chicks bought, pounds of feed
used, t(he number of broilers
marketed, and the pounds of
broilers marketed.
The principal cost items were
baby chicks, charged at 13 cents
each; feed, averaging about $80
a ton; and labor. The chicks
represented 20.3 per cent of the
gross costs; feed, 03 per cent;
and labor, 8.7 per cont. Other
charges taken into consideration
were fuel, buildings, equipment,
disinfectants and medications,
litter, and pow,er and light.
According to the report, most
farmers used commercial start
ing and growing mashes entire
ly in growing out the broilers.
Occasionally a small amount of
home grown feed was used. The
feeding of grain varied widely.
While some farmers did not feed
any grain, others fed grain for a
week or two before tttie birds
were sold.
The report says that at the
present time cost f?w!tors have
Increased all along the line and
the present cost of a three-
pound broiler is now 83.8 cents
rather than 76.2 cents, and the
cost per pound 27.9 cents rather
than 25.4 cents.

by all-risk crop insurance. The

information.

By RUTH CURRENT
N. 0. state CoUege
A summer vacation for cur
tains that have been on the job
all winter Is recommended by
textile specialists this year when
curtains are almost impossible
to replace.
Open season for windows is
a hard season on curtains, the
specialists explain. In strong
summer sunlight, draperies may
fade, and glass curtains rot.
Blowing against screens, and
dust and rain from open win
dows are all hard on curtains.
When draperies and glass cur
tains are taken down, a light
summer set may be put up. Or,
an old set may be used. Tyllnor
repairs won’t show when these
old curtalris are pushed back to
let In as much air as possible.
Or, as a third possibility, par
ticularly where summers are hot,
many famillefl prefer to leave
windows curtalnless.
Cotton draperies m ay be
washed if they are unllned, fast
color, and preshrunk. Try to
have other draperies dry clean
ed. A good way to keep dra
peries from wrinkling or crush
ing In storage is to fold length
wise and hang them over the
horizontal bar of a coat hangfer
padded with paper, iseveral pairs
can then be slipped into a large
paper bag. Fold up and pin the
open end of the bag. Then hang
the draperies in a closet where
the paper covering won’t get
torn.
It ^ best to have fragile net
and lace curtains—either cotton
or rayon—dry cleaned. If they
must be laundered at home, the
specialists advise washing them
in a large muslin or mesh bag,
using mild, lukewarm suds.
Unless curtains can be rolled
smoothly for storing, it saves
work to put them away without
ironing or stretching, because
folding makes creases that ne
cessitate pressing or stretching
when the curtains are hung.
Wrap in plain paper.
Grazing Crops Give
Much Cheaper Milk
Dairymen should plan to ex
tend the grazing season from the
usual 6 or 6 months to at least
8 or 9 months through the use
of extra temporary grazing crops,
says John A. Arey, in charge of
Extension dairying at State Col
lege,
Experience has ¿hown that
these grazing crops not only give
increased milk production with
less labor but they also help the
animals produce milk at a much
cheaper cost per pound, since
the animals harvest their . own
feed.
Grazing crops planted by Sep
tember 1 will provide ample
grazing by the middle of Octo
ber, if the land Is given a rather
heavy seeding and plenty of fer
tilizer Is used, according to Arey.
"If it is a fairly open winter,
these fields can be grazed with
reasonable regularity during the
winter months,” he says, “Re
gardless of 'how much grazing
can be obtained from December
through February, full grazing
can be expected by March 1 and
the grazing period will last un
til May 15 or June 1, depending
on conditions.”
Arey suggestts the use’of about
3 bushels of oats, barley, or rye
per acre, togetJier with Italian
rye grass and crimson clover,
so as to obtain a th(ck sod. He
says that wheat should not be
Included in the mixture because
the Extension entomologist has
showr> that the ^ rly seeding of
wOieat builds up an infestation
of the Hessian fly to damage
later plantings of wheat,
“The secrets of good fall and
winter grazing are early seeding
on good land, adequate fertili
zation, and the use of relatively
large amount! of Med," Arey
j»ay«.
Poultrymen Must
Develop Markets
Glutted markets'for eggs and
poultry in North Carolina were
the rule rather than the excep
tion before the war.
While these gluts were sea
sonal In nature, still their exist
ence and persistence for a pe
riod of years indicated a great
need for the development of a
marketing program on a state
wide basis to prevent such
gluts.
Prof, Roy Dearstyne of State
College says that to a certain
extent North Carolina producers
have lost their local markets
because many chain stores are
selling eggs produced outside
the state, ’This has been largely
due to the fact that the great
majority of poultry paoducts
produced in North Carolina is
by small' units, and also facili
ties for collection, grading, and
storage of the products are not
adequate.
"If an orderly progress is to
be made in the future, the situ
ation must be attacked in a vig
orous manner,” Dearstyne sug
gests. “Oroup action on the part
of producers seems to offer at
least a partial solution to the
problem. It Is very likely that
there will be more direct mar
keting in the future than in the
past, with the curb market
playing an Important part in
this movement.
“The producers themselves
have been extremely lax, for the
most part, not only in their ef
forts to produce a quality prod
uct but also in the proper care
of this product from the time of
production until it finds Its way
onto the market. The large pro
ducer eventually will be forced
to candle and grade eggs, if
markets are to be retained and
built up. This situation will like
wise be reflected' to some ex
tent to the smaller producer»
The consuming’public is becom
ing ‘quality cclhsclous’ and will
be more exacting'In the future
than at present.
“Now that the war is over, we
should work for better stand
ardized products, good distribu
tion, and Improved marketing
methods,”

A well-loaded gun at home is
the best assurance of peace in
the ophiion of Col. David L. Har
dee who spent 34 months as a
prisoner of war of the Japs. He '
spoke at the high school build
ing Tuesday as a guest of the
Mocksville Rotary club.
“I have been asked whether
the e^tomic bomb will end wars,”
Col. Hardee said. "1 will not an
swer that question but I will
pohit out that for 2,000 years
man has been talkhig about end
ing wars and each war has been
a war to end all wars. Science
has invented various weapons
which it was thought would end
war but it didn’t. 1 will, only
say that the best assurance of
peace is a well-loaded gun at
home.
Col. Hardee served in the Phil
ippines a member of Oen.
MacArthur’s staff. He was tak
en prisoner at Bataan,, was a
member of the famous “Death
March," lost 70 pounds during
his imprisonment. He has been
in the army 28 years. i
He talked frankly of the Jap
atrocities and said that the Japs
denied prisoners of war the
necessities of life which any civil
ized country would give to the
worst criminals. It was his opin
ion that it would take 20 years
to sow the seds of democracy in
Japan and 50 years for the seed
to bear fruit.
Of the 15,000 Americans tak
en prisoner by the Japs ta the
Philippines, it was the Colonel's
opinion that only 20 per cent
would be found to have sur
vived.
On the “Death March" the
American prisoners were forced
to march between 80 and 125
miles in the hot sun without any
sufficient food, either morning
or evening, none at noon, no
water, and no rest periods. Those
who became exhausted were kill
ed by the Japs.
The Japs carried off Flllptoo
women to satisfy the lust of Jap
men and then killed men who
protested such debauchery.
The base ot the food given
prisoners were rice and soup. The
soup has a sweet potato base.
The idea of the Japs was to sys- '
tematlcally starve the prisoners
to death. When a large num
ber died, they simply moved the
rest to another camp where the
performance was continued.
Once in a great while the pris
oners would be issued 150 pounds
frorii the carcass of a caribou. It
had to feed between 1 ,00.0 and.
2,000 and it was therefore neces
sary to grind it up, bone and all,
to go into soup. If each prisoner
received a few spoonfuls, he felt
thankful and hoarded it. About
three times a month fish was
Issued, sometimes fresh fish but
usually dried ones. The fish'head
was ground up and everything
eaten except the lens of the eyes.
The f^h had an odor like a fer-

SAYS SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE:
Despite Victory Used Fat
Saving Must Go On!
Every woman in America should know
that our country continues to face a
serious fat shortage. And victory pver
Japan won’t solve the problem immedi
ately. We must keep on saving used
fats in our kitchens I
If you have any thought that
laving uaed fats is one of those
wartime chores we can dr^p,
now that Victory is here, please
consider these facts and tell
them to your neighbors.
America etill need»
ealvaged fttte. Not even at
the‘peak of our war effort,
when fats were required for
mountains of shells and bombt
end medicines, in addition to
the ever-present need for soap,
were our needs for salvaging
fat greater than no w, Our stocks
have been drained by four long
years of war, and there isn’t
enough on hand to meet all
requirements.
Don’t le't ^'Victory
ptyehólogy" blind you
to thit national need/
It housewives stop saving fats
now, the shortage will become even more critical.
Don’t let a single drop
of ueed fate go to ivaetet
Little trimming! of fat left on
plates, even the ikimmings of
soups and gravies are important.
It is the conaiatent tavini of these small amounts that counts.
Don’t turn in tati that
can be re-ueed! But some
fats, such as those rendered from lamb and mutton, are not suit
able for re-use. Put them immediately in the salvage can.
And, with other fats, after you've got all cooking good out of them,
there is always a little left. No
matter how little it is, save it.
Your butcher will still give
you 4c and 2 red points for every
pound you turn in. Save consistently — save every drop you can — every day — until Uncle
Sam says the job is done,

general charge of the Carolina
Aluminum Comany’s land in
several counties. He and Jessie
Singleton of iDavle county have
been doing considerable conser
vation work on their farm land
In this county near the point of
the river. They built some good
terraces last spring, sowed
around six acres of hilly eroded
land to serlcea lespedeza that
has done well. >
’ Now these men are ready to
sow around ten acres of alfalfa
and five acres of pasture mix
ture, including some ladino clo
ver. They are’ growing Into a
herd of beef cattle and are try
ing to get permanent hay and
grazing crops before they -get
too many cows.
Leon Baltty near Four Cor
ners has a splendid stand of se
rlcea he sowed last spring. He
sowed It on land where the top
soli had been removed. He is
well pleased with the progress
this crop has made. He has some
good terraces his neighbor, Mr.
Smith, made for him.
I Clyde Ridenhour near Jerusa
lem Church recently had a lot
of terraces built and lots of gul
ly fllllng done by a motor grader
and two bull dozers. He likes his
work quite well.
Last sprhig Mr. Ridenhour
put In five acres of improved
pasture using the recommenda
tions of the Middle Yadkin Dis
trict. This pasture has already
been'profitable to him. He has
gotten around Í57 more from

had ever gotten befóte. He
credits the pasture with this In

The South In A New Era
Any generation id unaware of the greatest significance
of the events through which it is passing. It is for another
generation to see that from its perspective of history in
:which the consequences of those events are seen. The past
60 years have ben among the greatest in history, yet, while
we marvel and wonder at the progress, we are still too
close to see all that is taking place. ^
But that a veiy great era is ahead of us seems assured.
Certainly the opportunities are ahead, in economic, social,
and spiritual areas of life. The South should share in all
these, and, at the same time, the South must share the re
sponsibilities. We do not belong to that group of South
erners who are always telling tis to “Look Back to Olory.”
We prefer to look forward to glory. That there were some
splendid things in the Old South we gratefully recognize,
but all of that that we can carry forward is the spirit which
made that era great. The times dnd conditions are chang
ing and we must bring the best spirit and mind into the
world of today.
We are not of that group which wishes the South to
remain apart. We want to be our best and do our best, but
we are part of America. The coimtry is one. North, soutli,
east, or west have their peculiar gifts and particular con
tributions to make, but contributions to one Coimtry, one
America. We have frequently noted that individuals who
brag of themselves, and wish to remain apart from others
do so because of a sense of superiority; but are in reality
too small to keep pace with others. May Heaven help us
from such smallness as a section. Let’s fight for our rights,
but with no wish to be isolated. We too are Americans—
we too are America.
Representative Government
r Democracy has done pretty well in the past decade. The
people who mocked and sneered at it a tew years ago are
now taking orders from Eisenhower and MacArthur. It has
succeded in spite of some inherent weaknesses, one of which
is the small men we sometimes elect to represent us. We
■.have.frquntly pointed out that the people whom we elect
<do REPRESENT the folks who elected them,
i This weakness is not confined to the South, but as we
ftxe of it we speak for it. It is time that we consider men
of ability and character for public office, rather than men
whose main accomplishments are the ability to be good
hack slappers, baby kissers, or experts in hillbilly singing.
Affairs of state require something more than these.
North Carolina, fortunately, replaced its mistake with
the dignified, sensible, high-minded Clyde R. Hoey. Mis
sissippi might well follow suit, and replace its mistake with
a "Gentleman from Mississippi.” Even when their Bilbo
fought in a good cause he did so in a spirit and manner
which were offensive to thinking people. Such men do not
represent the best in the South—yet as long a^ we elect
them we must confess, with much embarrassment, "that
they represent something in the social body which is not
to our credit. We must take the responsibility for electhig
such men. They make us look ridiculous in the eyes of the
world.
Free Enterprise
Free enterprise is making a bid for Itself in the new
order. The vast majority of Americans are for free enter-
price, but quite a considerable portion of that majority
want to know what is meant by free enterprise.. It has
become a habit, and a very bad habit, of the advocates of
It to brand everyone a Red or a Socialist who dares to think
and bring out new ideas about economics. They warn
us of state control, and predict dire things should that come
to pass.
We are not expert in the fields of sociology and eco
nomics, but our observation leads us to believe that few
people in America are supporting apy sort of social philoso
phy which they would express in political life. But vast
numbers are looking into the practical matter of making
a living, and something more than just a livhig. They
have advanced far enough in their education to know some
thing more than just a living. They have advanced far
enough in their education to know something about the
amount and value of our national resources and income,
and their relative distrlbutioni They are not asking in
terms of philosophy, but in terms of arithmetic. If free
enterprise can give them a satisfactory answer they will
be strong for free enterprise. The Communistic philosophy
h^s very small place in the thinking of Americans, most of
whom lean decidedly to private enterprise and private own
ership. In other words. Free Enterprise is at present the
choice of the American people. It is up to FREE ENITiR*
PRISE to make good.
Flood On
"And what did you think of
Venice?” ‘'Venice?”“ Venice?’’ re
peated M». Oreenlng. Then she
turned to her husband, "Did we
go. to Venice, Georgia?”
"We stopped there, but there
was a flood on; so we didn’t leave
the station.”
Celllnr Wax
A young woman entered a sta-
tionery store and asked for a
pound can of floor wax.
“I’m sorry, miss,” said the
clerk, "all we have is sealing
wax.”
"Don't get funny I” she snap
ped, "Who’d want to wax the
celUng?”
Welcome
They were scarcely seated be
fore one of them nudged his ship
mate and asked, "What does
that word ‘asbestos’ mean across
the curtain?”
“Pipe down,” said his compan
ion, “ and don’t show your Ig
norance. That’s Latin for ‘wel
come.’”
^yer-leas
A tiny four-year-old was
spending a night away from
home. At bedtime she knelt at
her hostess’ knee to say her
prayers, expecting the usual
prompting. Finding Mrs. B. un
able to help her, she concluded
thus:
"Please Ood, ’scuse me. I can’t
remember my prayers and I’m
staying with a lady who doesn’t
know any.”

OUR DEM OCRACY-byK M
Clinic Opeii,for ; ;
Cancer Patients
Cancer claimed 2,298 lives in
the state of North Carolina last
year and It is estimated by re
liable authority that this state
has at least 8,000 cancer patients
at the present time.
According to Dr. Mordecal, dis
trict health officer, early diag
nosis and treatment will save
the lives of about 50 per. cent of
these unfortunate persons.
Cancer of the female organs
represents a good percent of all
cancers. In the early stages it
causes no symptoms whatever
and cannot be detected save by
careful examination. It is most
common in women after 38 or 40
years of age. After 40, w om ^
should be examined by a phy
sician at least once a year. Thc
shortage of doctors during the
late war has, resulted in much
neglect of this phase of work.
As this shortage is relieved by
the return of physicians to civil
lan life from the armed forces,
women of middle age and older
would be wise to seek physical
check-ups.
Dr. Mordecal points out that
special clinics for expectant
mothers and women In need of
medical observation for female
troubles are being held in Mocks
ville on the first Wednesday and
second Monday each month.
These clinics are under the su
pervision of Dr. Frank R. Locke
of the Bowman Oray school of
medicine in Winston. They are
intended for women of this
county who are unable to afford
examhiatlon and treatment by
private physicians. Appoint
ments may be made by consult
ing the county nurse, health de
partment. .

A new list of dailar-and-cent ceiling prices for used
passenger automobiles—revised to reflect the four per
cent reduction that becathe effective July 1—will be avail*
able for general distribution to dealers and local War Price
and Rationing Boards shortly, according to OPA. The new
prices are contained in Amendment 10 to Maximum Price
Regulatiori 540—Maximum Prices for Used Passenger Au
tomobiles—which bears the issues date of September 6,
1045.
Under the regulation, OPA explains, ceiling prices for
used passenger automobiles pow are automatically re
duced four per cent every six months to reflect deprecia
tion and increasing age of cars, the fhrst reduction having
become effective July 1,1945.
UNRATIONED SHOES
Rationing of industrial rubben boots and work shoes
has ended. Price Administrator Chester Bowles said in an
announcement covering the fifth commodity group to be
freed from ration controls since the victory over Japan.
Other commodities previously released were gasoline, fuel
oil, oil stoves and processed foods.
CIVILIAN DDT ' :
A retail ceiliAg price of $4, effective September 8,1946,'
has been set on one-pound “bombs” of aerosol insecticide,
a solution containing DDT to be sold in small volume dur<
ing the late summer, OPA says. The product is intended to
be distributed experimentally to three or four cities in se
lected ar^as. It is in the form of a “bomb” dispenser con
taining an insecticidal mixture held under gas pressure and
Is for clvllion household use, OPA explains.
MEAT SALES
A modification of invoice of certificaation requirements
that apply to Class 2 (non-federally inspected) slaughter
ers’ sales of meat to Oovernment procurement agencies, or
to persons under contract to sell meat to these agencies,
was announced by OPA. Under the slaughter control pro
gram, non-federally inspected slaughterers are permitted to
increase their slaughter quotas, in live weight, by equiva
lent amounts of meat sold to Oovernment procurement
agencies or to persons under contract to sell to these agen
cies.,
The new amendment eliminates the necessity of ob
taining a statement from agencies who buy meat from Class
2 slaughtered and provides that Instead of a statement
from the agency ,a slaughterer may, at the time the sale Is
made, furnish the agency with an invoice contaiinlng sub
stantially the same infomatlon formerly given on the state
ment. The slaughterer' may then Increase his slaughter
quota for the current quota period by an amount, in live
weight ,equlvalent to the quantity of meat sold to the
agency.
In the case of sales to those under contract to sell meat
to the agencies, the slaughterer may now obtain from the
contractor either a statement giving the contract number,
or a certification on Department of Agriculture Form FDO
E5-12. The statement or certification may be obtained at
any time during the quota period in which the saile was
made, and the slaughterer may then increase his current
monthly slaughter quota to cover the meat sold to the con
tractor. Sales of veal to contractors have also been brought
under this provision. In addition to pork and beef.
Slaughterers who Increase their slaughter quotas be
cause of sales to Oovernment agencies, or to those under
contract to sell the meat to the agencies, must attach to
their monthly reports made to OPA district offices (on
OPA Form MC-6) a certification as to the amount of the
increase.
EVICTION REGULATIONS
In a move to protect tenants Jrom being forced from
their homes in crowded areas where they cannot find other
places for recent within their price range, Chester Bowles,
Administrator of OPA, announced that the agency is tight
ening Its eviction rules. Beginning September 15, area rent
directors may require a minimum of six months before a
purchaser may evict a tenant in ordet to occupy the house
himself. Formerly, the waiting period in all areas was three
months,
"With hundreds of thous^ds of tenants facing tem
porary unemployment during the change of peacetime pro
duction, this is no time to have furniture piled in the street,”
Mr. Bowles said. “We are compelled to tighten up on evic
tions because they have been taking place, at an alarming
rate, a situation even more serious in this transition period,
than it was during the war. In the first six months of this
year, a total of 515,000 petitions for evtion were received ,
at local area rent offices. Last year, nearly a million families
received eviction notices.” .
Mr. Bowles said that, as rapidly as pressures on rent
ceilings in particular areas relax,, controls will be removed
from one areà afteiÿ another. Controls were removed from
hlrié deferisè rental areas September 1. He made clear, how
ever, that in all areas where pressure on rent ceilings re
mains, controls will continue in effect and will be vigorously
enforced.

Hogs Easily Injured
(ilVfAKES no diflfoTcnce if they’re market bound, you oughta stop kicking your hogs around.'* Thei'o’a moro sonae than metef in parnphraao of an old ditty.
Hough hundling of hogs while they
ni'c growing and nt market time causes bruising and crippling which reduce their value. Even death may result.The University of North Carolina comes up with some good suggestions for nandling hogs. A university bulletin points out that even Biicht bruises lower the grade of prime cuts. Many of these bruises are caused by use of sticks, clubs, sharp instruments, prodpoles, and whips. The bulletin urges use o£ canvas slappers or electric prods to drive hogs.
Striking a hog with a canvas nlaiiper, the bulletin says, results in on unusual noise which in itself
helps to control th« herd bettef
than use of heavy' or sharp
weapons.
A survey In 1936 by the National Livestocli Loss Prevention Board showed that 9,000,000 meat animals
were cither bruised, crippled or
dead on arrival at stockyards. The cost to growers was $11,000,000. Tlie loss from bruises to hogs alone was estimated at $3,000,000, with the most valuable cuts, such aa hams and bellies, suffering the greatest injury.

The prlaoners were supposed to
receive a Red Cross package eacb
week. ,Col. Hardee raid they re
ceived 6 1-2 package during, the
entire 34 months. They were al
lowed to w;lte a postal card
liome, first 60 and later 25 words,
every two months but his,fam
ily only received lour during the
•ntlre time.
In one prison camp Col. Har
dee worked on a farm for the
Japs but| they were not allowed
to hava. iiny more food. Rather
than American prisoners
have ÉÍwádos, bananas or co-
coanuti> ;whlch contained many
necessary vitamins for nourish
ment, tht.' Japs allowed them to
rot. The' surplus vegetables went
to the local civilian Jap popula
tion or were shipped out.
Both officers and men who
were prisoners were treated
alike. The Japs were supposed to
pay them when they worked but
they charged against the pay
of officers all articles issued at
fabulous prices. For instance,
the colonel said he had a sou
venir shoestring which cost
him 137.50. Most of the money
the prisoners were supposed to
have been given for their work
was placed In a savings account
In a bank and when the JapiJeft
they destroyed the passbook and
took the mqney.
Col. Harde« estimated that the
American prisoners got otily
about 5 per cent of value re
ceived for their, money. .When
they were taken prisoner all of
the money, , Jewelry, wrist
watches, food, medicines were
seized.
He estimated that It costs the
Japs about five cents a meal to
feed the American prisoners—
and in ’'one place where they
worked on the farm it cost noth
ing because the prisoners pro
duced the food. Prisoners were
driven into the field to work,
either with bleeding, bare feet or
wooden shoes because of the fear
of the Japs of escape.
Many Americans were killed
on the pretext that they were at
tempting to escape.%
When the Japs moved Ameri
can prisoners out of the Philip
pines they placed them on prison
ships which had no means of
identification, cramming them
into the hold of the ship which
was battened down. Water and
food were let down to them in a
5-gallon oil can. Many died on
the trip to prison camps outside
of the Philippines and many were
lost when the Jap ships were tor
pedoed by Americans who had
no way of knowing that many of
their comrade* were on the ships.
Col. Hardee estimated that out of
4,200 sent out only about 500 sur
vived.
The prisoners in the camps
were • allowed only room, enough
on the fl(»r to sleep—Just the
space required for one man
Rather than give the prisoners
more room, other quarters were
nailed up by the Japs.
When he was transferred to a
prison camp In Manila which
was an abandoned penitentiary
Col. Hardee was able to get a
bath for the first time In over
two years. On all sides his com
panions remarked that “it was
Heaven!"
“While the American public
will be hearing about Jap atro
cities for some time to come, no
one can ever understand the full
measure of the slavery except
those who underwent the cruel
ties and barbarism," Col. Hardee
said.
Col. Hardee appeared before
the club as the guest of John
LeOrand who was in charge of
the program. Col. W. O. Murchi
son of Davie Introduced Col.
Hardee and Robert S. McNeill
presented Col. Murchison.
The club gave a rising vote of
thanks to R. B. Sanford for his
work in helping to secure the

Hunters, Anglers
Invited to Meet
All hunters and fishermen in
Davie county are invited to at
tend a meeting at the courthouse

purpose of determining about or
ganizing a county wildlife club.
Ross O, Stevens, Raleigh exec
utive secretary of the N. C. Wild
life Federation, will be present to
fexplain the setup and purposes
of the organization. Forty-three
counties in the state are now or
ganized in such clubs. The fi
nal objective is to assure more
wild game and fish for the vari
ous counties, supervise law en
forcement so that it meets with
popular favor and educate the
youth in protecting and in
creasing wild game and fish,
Dr. P. H. Mason will be tem
porary chairman and preside at
the meeting here Ootober 1.
Hurricane raltut And
winds have done considerable
damage in Davie county. Itlie
official rainfall from last Thurs
day through Tuesday amounted
to 12.76 Inches and a total of
15.75 inches for the month thus
far. This rainfall is at least three
times the normal.
High winds of last Monday did
considerable damage to crops,
the tail end of the hurricane.
All of the creks and Yadr*
kin river were out of bounds.
While official estimates are not
yet available, it is thought that
the final judgment will be that
nobody remembers the high lev
el of the creeks to remain so
long. Rural mall carriers have
been hard put to it to get the
mall through on account of the
bridges being flooded.. Remark*
ably, the country roads seenis
to have withstood the constant
downpour better than.expected.
It is estimated that about a
quarter of the tobacco crop In
the county Is still out. The
heavy winds, some people esti
mated them at 40 miles an hour,
ot Monday night broke down and
bruised leaves.
The river and bottom corn,
which had an excellent prospect,
suffered almost a total loss. The
loss along H unting'Creèk' and
Dutchman's creek, especially the
former, will be of serious conse
quences. Softened by the contin
ued heavy rains, the upland com
was badly blown down on Mon
day night. Some of this crop can
be recovered with normal weath
er but much will be damaged by
ground rot. Much of the ensilage
corn still in the fields was also
blown down by the wind. i
The bad weather held up hay
making. Some was caught in
the fields before It could be gath
ered. That remaining will be old
and woody and harvested for
seed. Quality will be a question
mark,
Cotton, which was beginning
to open, was badly blown but
it Is thought that, given normal
weather, this crop will recover.
A hardy plant, the crop may
prove to turn out welh
A lot of people complained of
flooded basements and leaking
roofs, particularly In town.
No reports have been received
ot cattle or livestock'being lost.
Late gardens, especially corn
and beans, suffered.

COOLEEMEE PUPILS PARTICIPATE
IN VARIOUS MUSIC PROGRAM
■ That the school children in
Cooleemee School love music is
evidenced by the fact that 310
of them are tailing piano les
sons or belong to the high school
glee club or one of the grade
choruses.'
GLEE CLVB
The High School Glee Club
has a membership of 60 boys and
girls, and they ehave already
begun their regular practices.
The glee club was organized last
year under the direction of Miss
Helen Daniel and made a splen
did record, and the members of
the group are entering upon
their plans for the year with a
great deal of enthusiasm. Ten
tative plans call for several pub
lic appearances during the
school year, which should be
welcomed news to the music lov
ers of the school, and commu
nity. .
GRADE CHORUS
Miss Daniel organized a Gram
mar Or^de Chorus last year in
order tt# start training the boys
and girls in choraji work so that
they would be ready to Join the
glee club on entering high school.
This year the chorus has a mem
bership of 130 boys and girls.
The group will not appear in
public as often as the glee club,
but the members are enthusias
tic because they love to sing and
because they are looking for
ward to the time when they may
become a member of the high
school glee club.
FRIMARY CHORUS
The school is fortunate in hav
ing another person on the fac
ulty in addition to Miss Daniel
who Is gifted In choral work.
Miss Mariola Crawford, and she
has organized a chorus of some
75 voices from the third grade
through the ' fifth grade. She
plans to teach them three-part
songs, and the boys and girls
have shown a great deal of in
terest during the try-out for
membership.
PIANO TEACHER
Cooleemee was unable to em
ploy a teacher of piano last year,
and the boys and girls who had
been taking lessons were dis
appointed. This year they are
smiling again because Miss Edith
Hall has been employed to teach
piano, and the only sad note
is the fact that she Is unable to
give lessons to all who want take
them. She has an enrollment of
40 pupils, and to give them two
lessons per week she has to teach
eight hours each day. There are
15 or 20 pupils yet who would
like to take lessons if there were
a teacher available.
School officials are happy that
they can offer such splendid op

CONSERVATION
By G. W. MoCLELLAN
Dempsey Cllnard and J. T. Ruff
of Winston-Salem bought the old
Ellis farm near Blxby last spring.
These men recently made a plan
with the Middle Yadkin District.
They plan to develop a beef
cattle farm by eventually put
ting in 20 acres of alfalfa, con
siderable serlcea lespedeza for
grazing and hay, and sow grasses
and ladino clover for grazing.
This fall they’re planning to
terrace most of their upland,
and complete a drainage ditch
through some wet pasture land
with dynamite. They recenlty
blasted a nice ditch with three
sticks of dynamite per hole
placed about thirty inches apart.
This ditch is about 4 feet deep
and 8 feet wide.
They feel like the District pro
gram will be I a lot of help to
them, and they feel like they
have already saved $100 on tho
ditch through assistance of the
District.
J. OP. Cope and brother, near
Cross Roads Church have made
a nice start towards drainage
in their bottom land. They are
doing this work with their farm
tractor and plow. They are put
ting in more supplementary
grazing crops again. They find
this very profitable.
Charlie Angell 4 miles north
west of Mocksville made some
nice terraces with his tractor
and plow recently. He has sown
more alfalfa this fall, using the

It Is The Dawn
PEACEI—After many long years of terrible fighting,
hardships, sacrifices, and staggering losses the end of bat
tle has come.
In the great silence of war's cessation the peoples of
the world are almost stunned by it; it seems too good to
be true.
The varyhig fortunes of war have divided the spirit
and attitudes of the people—both in the time of conflict
end in the hour of victory. To everyone there is Joy that
the slaughter has stopped; to many there is an unspeak
able sense of ¿ladness because their loved ones are coming
home; to the soldier there Is Joy that the Job Is finished,
but to many there is deep sadness mingled with the Joy
because to them there will remain the knowledge, tho
sense, and the feeling of loss. They are the ones who have
given their all in sacrifice, and know the meaning of war
through the vacancies which can never be filled.
But with the war past, and the new opportunities
opening up we shall all find the aims and purposes, the
chatmels and medixmis for the employment of our ener
gies and our skills in fashioning a world which will be bet
ter than the one which has Just passed away.
We have learned through bitter experience the cost
of war; let us realize that peace also, if we keep it, will
cost in effort and sacrifice. No new and better world is
going to be thrust upon us; we have the duty and re
sponsibility^ to make it.
And, let us remember what a poet of long ago told
us. It is as true today as it was then—"Except the Lord
build the house, they labor in vain that build It; except
the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh In vain.”
Cooleemee Mon Shoots Bonin Surrender'
Where The Blame Lies
Weargee one hundred per cent with President Tnunan
^hen he declared that the blame for Pearl Harbor rests
upon the people of America^ The officials in charge at
that time, whether of the army or navy, simply reflected
the temper and disposition of the American people. Re
read the history of the days before Pearl Harbor and you
will find the great majority of people speaking almost in
whispers fearful that we might provoke somebody to war.
Appeasement and isolation were in the air. We wanted
to trade, we wanted to go on living our way of life and
refused to believe that way of life was purchased at a
price, and must be preserved at a price. A few weret aware
of the danger arid warned us, but we refused to believe
them. The prophets who warned us were called war
mongers. Fascist and Nazi organizations, under the guise
of high-sounding names were having a field day with
propaganda. It is hardly fair to saddle a few officials with
the blame; they reflected the people back home.
General MacArthur
' Those who heard the ringing words of General Mac
Arthur when the Japanese representatives signed the sur
render papers, will better understand why he was able to
perform such an outstanding part in the wining of the
victory over Japan. It was fitting and proper that he
should be the man to accept their surrender.
In that hour he was revealed as a great man. There
was no bitterness in his tone, no threats in his words, and
no boasting, either in speech or manner. One could sense
that he felt the solemnity of the moment, and was deeply
sinslble of the responsibility of America. We are sure that
the general will see that justice Is done, but In MacArthur
will not be found the evil mind, the vengeful spirit, and
the brutal practices which marked the German and the
Japanese war lords. '
The Japanese people will have no reason to fear Mac
Arthur; those responsible for the war and for the brutal
treatment of American prisoners will receive justice. Every
effort will be made to reeducate the Japanese people to
enable them to take their place In the family of nations.
The American people can trust MacArthur to do a job
which will enable Americans for all time to come to hold
up their heads In honest pride.

The surrender of all Japanese forces in the Bpnin Istands
conducted aboard the destroyer, U. S. S. Dunlap off Cblctal
Jima, was photographed by Lawrence H. Beck, son of Mr. and
Mn. Nathan M. Beck, 4 Ford Street, who flew from Guam to
picture the ceremony.
Navy Combat Photographer Beck recorded on film the his
toric signing of firm surrender terms by Lt. Oeneral Y. Tachl-
bana, Japanese supreme commander of forces In the Bonlna.
The ceremony held on the fantall of the V. S. S. Dunlap
brought all of the Bonin Islands under American control. Use
of the destroyer Dunlap as the site of Japanese capitulation was
a final blow at Jap arrogance because It was the Dunlap
which sank the first Japanese surface warship Irf World War
11 and the Dunlap which opened the fhvt American bombard
ment against Jap Imperial headquarters at Chichi Jima.
In the presence of high ranking Jap officials and the white-
clad crew of the Dunlap, Commodore John H, Magnider,
VSN of Washington, D. C. laid down the law to Lt. General
Tachlbana, while Photographer Beck’s camera clicked off the
signal event.
Beck, graduate of Cooleemee High school In 1941, was em
ployed by the Erwin Cotton Mills company before entering the
Navy. He has been a photographer overseas for more than a
year, covering various Navy assignments.

SLAUGHTER CONTROLS SUSPENDED
, Controls over how much livestock can be slaughtered
and where the meat may be shipped have^ been suspend
ed by OPA.
This action was taken on the recommendation of Sec
retary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson; and meat ra
tioning is not affected, he added.
He added that there has been “marked Improvemeftt”
in the civilian meat supply during recent months but that
it is still not sufficient to assure the best distribution with
out the help of rationing controls.
GAS TO COST LESS
Gasoline and fuel oil will cost less at retail in the east

The reduction in retail gasoline ceilings will be 1.2
cents a gallon throughout the 17 states with the follow
ing exceptions: In Florida east of the Apalachicola River
and Georgia, where the reduction will be 6-10 of a cent

The reductions represent, in general, the increases in
ceilings granted during the war period to help defray the
extra cost of transporting petroleum products to the east

to be abandoned.

Davie county schools will con
tinue with a Program on Guid
ance this year. The program for
1045-46 will be a follow-up of
the program Instituted last year
in the extension course headed
by' C. W. Phillips of Woman’s
College, Oreensboro, and Miss
Ella Stevens Barrett, of the State
vocational Department of the
State Department oi Public In
struction.
Inaugurating the program for
all county schools superintend
ent Curtis Price, a committee of
one teacher from each school
and the principals met In the su-
perlnteiident’s office September
14. This group made plans for
the Guidance Program.
Every school In Davie County
wll lhave a faculty member des
ignated as Guidance Director for
each school. These Guidance Di
rectors will, with assistance from
faculty members, apply guid
ance principles in a practical
way. Pupils will benefit directly
from assistance given them and
the entire school program will
be stimulated through the guid
ance leadership.
Miss Barrett, an expert on
guidance, will visit each school
and give direct assistance to all
teachers and the guidance di
rector.
Davie county was the first
county school system In North
Carolina to adopt a guidance
pi^ogram. Guidance Is recogniz
ed by state and national author
ities as most essential in the
present day school programs. It
Is fortunate that Davie county
can have-this program for as
sisting boys and girls with their
problems.
The planning Committee will
meet again with the county su
perintendent September 27 at 3
o’clock to complete plans for
the year. Miss Barret will be
present for this meeting. Case

pupils from each school in the
county will meet to discuss com
mon problems. Miss Barrett will
meet with them. The meeting

Norman A. Snyder (right), 48 Davie street, Cooleemee, is shown

Hambaugh, squadron commander. Sgt. Snyder, a radio opera
tor on a B-24 Liberator heavy bomber, was cited for meritorious
achievement in accomplishing with distinction numerous op
erational missions over enemy occupied Europe. The citation
accompanying his award read In part: "The courage, coolness
and skill displayed by Sergeant Snyder upon these occasions
reflects great credit upon hhuself and the Armed Forces of
ihe United States.” Before entering the service, he was em
ployed by Olenn L. Martin Aircraft Company, Baltimore, Md.,

FINAL APPEAL FOR NATIONAL WAR
FUND TO BE HELD IN OCTOBER
The final appeal for the
National War Fund will be held
In October of this year. The
national budget for this year has
been set at $115,000,000, in order
to finance member agencies for
the next few months, or until
these agencies can completely
wind up their work. This an
nouncement was made this week
by State Chairman Victor S.
Bryant of Durham.
Mr. Bryant stated that the
National War Fund had advised
him that, with the exception ol
the American Field Service, V-J
Day does not signify an immedi
ate end to the work of member
agencies of the fund. USO and
USO Camp shows must carry on
their programs for our service
men until demobilization is an
actuality, Mr. Bryant stated.
United Seaman’s Service and
other agencies affiliated, will
have to continue their work while
the merchant fleet is bringing
our soldiers home.
The need of the foreign relief
agencies this year Is greater than
ever, with millions in the war-
torn countries' facing the pros-
, pect of starvation without our
help.
President Truman said the
other day: "Unless we do what
we can to help, we may lose this
winter what we won at such
terrible cost last spring. Desper
ate men are liable to destroy the
structure of their society to find
In the wreckage some substitute
for hope.”

BEAR CREEK
CROP INSURANCE
NOW AVAILABLE
College Station, Raleigh—"Ev
ery farmer in North Carolina
ought to be Interested In Fed
eral Crop Insurance as it elim
inates failures and near failures
from the farmer’s budget," Kerr
Scott, Commissioner of Agricul
ture, said here yesterday.
"It offers farmers an oppor
tunity to plan and plant with
the hope of a bumper crop, and
with the comforting knowledge
that, from the standpoint of re
turns, he can't have a real fail
ure,” Scott declared.
The sales campaign for the
winter wheat crop is now being
conducted throughout the State
and each Individual wheat grow
er' will be offered protection
against the unavoidable hazards
of growing this crop.
Scott pointed out that the pro
gram was designed, "not to pro
vide a profit for anyone but
solely to protect the farmer from
loss or damage to his crop caus
ed by unavoidable natural haz
ards." “It can and will serve
the farmers as a sound and per
manent protection if farmers of
this State and other states give
it their whole-hearted coopera
tion," he added.
In answer to request from
farmers. Congress provided for
operation ot the Federal Crop
Insurance Program on this year’s
cotton and wheat crops and for
trial Insurance on a number of
crops, Including tobacco, corn,
and potatoes, (tobacco In North
Carolina). If these programs
meet with sufficient success, it
Is logical to assume that the In
surance program eventually will
be extended to other farm prod
ucts. '
Applications are available to
eVery wheat farmer in the State
through his County AAA Of
fice. The deadline for making
applications Is September 29, or
the individual farmer’s seeding
date, if this is earlier.

CONSERVATION
By O. W. MoOLELLAN
When our forefathers landed
on the Atlantic Coast, the aver
age depth of topsoil In America
was seven Inches. It took from
f<3ur to six hundred years for
each Inch of it to be made. This
soil was practically the only
capital our forefathers had.
In that soli is every substance
that is in our bodies; air, .water,
and mineral matter. The soil
supplies all our food and clothes,
our heat and our light. The pen
cil with which I am now writing
came from the earth. The elec
tric light above me as I write
was once stored in earth or
water.
The earth is a part of us, and
this layer of topsoil, even today,
is our nation’s bank account. If
we rob this bank, we rob our
selves and steal from our chil
dren. Soil cannot be thought of
as soil alone. People live on it.
When the soil fails, people suf
fer.
The menace of soil erosion af
fects the industrial worker, the
church, nnd all business men as
well as the farmer,
If every acre was completely
protected from erosion prior to
.the recent rainfall of 12 Inches,
we would not have' had the
flooded condition along the
streams. Nor would we have as
many new gullies.
The Middle Yadkin District is
anxious to help save that soli not
yet taken off by erosion in Da
vie and the adjoining counties.
"Conserve the land our boys
fought for." --

Asks Donors
To Beware-
This man, said to be Lee Richie,
who has recently been soliciting
funds In Davie for the "Mission
Army,” is not connected In any
way with the Salvation Army,
Capt. L. C. Sheffield of the Army
stated here Tuesday.
"Many people have been con
tributing to this man thinking
they were giving the money to
the Salvation Army and we wish
to correct that impression," Capt.
Sheffield said.
Capt. Sheffield pohited out
that solicitors for the Salvation
Army were women exclusively;
that you could ten who they were
by the Inscription, "The Salva
tion Army,” written on a red
band In yellow letters on their
bonnets.
Capt. Sheffield stated he had
heard that RicHie was formerly
connected with the Salvation
Army. Nobody has been able. It
seems, to find out what he does
with the money that many have
given him.

Bomb Destruction
Major Tom Ferebee of MockS'
vllle, who dropped the first
atomic bomb on Hlroshlnla, re
cently made a tour, with others,
of the devastated areas. A low-
level flight was made over Hiro
shima and an Inspection trip
afoot was made through Naga
saki where the second bomb was
dropped..
The people of Nagasaki showed
hatred for the American party
and the visitors were struck by.
the "dumbfounded looks” of the
natives of Nagasaki.
In commenting on the trip and
reactions Major Ferebee said, ac
cording to a ynited Press dis
patch from Tokyo:
"It was a comjletely different
attitude than the people of Yo
kohama or Tokyo showed, under
standable considering the bomb.
But we still feel it was better
that one bomb should remove the
agony and misery than months
of consecutive bombing by hun
dreds of Super Forts in order to
wipe put, war machinery."

SHELBY LAWYER J
This country was founded be
cause ot the love of religious lib
erty and Individual fredom, par
ticularly the former, Pat Mc-
Brayer, attorney of Shelby, told
Moclcsville Rotarians Tuesday. In
a scholarly address packed full
of early American history, the
speaker reviewed the constltu-:
tion of this country. He point
ed out the North America was
settled to obtain freedom while
South America was the search
for wealth.
"One was for God and the
other for gold,” the speaker said.
Mr. McBrayer,. who founded
the Shelby Rotary club, traced
the early trials of our forefath
ers, both in the establishment
of religious freedom, trials of a
primitive life, tax oppression by
England, and the final emer
gence of a constitution, espe
cially /the Bill of Rights, which
placed this country and Its peo
ples as the world leaders In free
dom.
He related the fact that this
country, originally largely of
English stock, narrowly escaped
having German become the na
tional ianguage, Muhlenberg
university later being establish
ed in the memory of the man,
a German, who cast the decid-
hig vote against desertion of the
Bngll* tongue. , '
R. B. Sanford had as his guest
his son-in-law. Major Hansford

PAGE2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPRISE
CARBON PUNT SECRET REVEALED:
WAS SECOND ONLY TO ATOMIC BOMB
The Navy department last
week revealed the secret of the
product made at the Carbon
plant at Wlnston-Salem. The
secret weapon was the radio
proximity fuse and Is said to
have been the second greatest
invention miracles of the war,
the development of the atomic
l)omb ‘being the only secret
weapon greater. The proximity
luse possessed great war poten-
tlalltleij, althqugh it Is only the
size of a pint milk bottle, It was
stated. The fuse was used In
heavy projectiles to explode when
they came close enough to the
target' to Inflict damage.
The weapon was one of .the
most potent factors In the fight
against the Jap suicide planes,
the Oerman buzz bomb attack on
London in 1044, and in turning
back the German counter-offen-
Wve last December in the Bel
gian Bulge.
It is said that the invention
'Will likely make it possible for
commercial pocket radios, no
larger than a pack of cigarettes,
to be made. It also has many
other qualities that may be turn
ed to commercial use.

State Colleg(| Hints
To Farm Homemakers
By RUTH CURRENT
N. C. State College
Keep sugar sirup on hand for
sweetening fruit drinks and iced
tea. It goes further than plain
sugar. To prepare, boll together
for 3 to 5 minutes equal parts of
sugar and water. Keep covered
tightly in refrigerator.
Add a little salt to fro.stlngs,
pie fillings, and puddings. It
brings out the sWeet.
Chop dried fruits, combined
with nuts, moisten with honey or
corn sirup, and use as a filling
for layer cakes. Use strained
honey or maple sirup and chop
ped nuts as an ice cream sauce.
When you do find sheets for
sale don’t be stampeded by the
mere sight of them and snatch
them up, regardless. Look for a
label giving size, and remember
that "torn size” means the size
before hemming. Sheets which
are too short like blankets which
are too short are uncomfortable
and are necessarily subject to
more strain than tho^e which are
long enough to tuck in firmly.
A good bath towel is one that
absorbs moisture quickly, and
doesn’t hang on the rack soggy
and heavy for hours. That’s the
bather's viewpoint—and a very
sound one. But there are also
other factors to be considered
when you shop for towels.
Absorbency depends on the
amount of pile or looped surface
a towel has. The more pile yarns
to the inch the greater the dry
ing power. Long loops make for
a' soft' fluffy towel, but for good
wear too long loops are not ad
visable. Loops about one-eighth
Inch long are considered a desir
able length.

FARM QUESTIONS
ARE ANSWERED
Q. Can alaflfa hay be fed to
chickens?
A. Yes, flays Prof. Roy Dear-
styne, in charge of the Poultry
Department at State College, If
the hay is cut wh«n 9 to 10 Inches
high and cured inside with pro
tection from the sun and rain.
The same la true for other le-
guems, which furnish an excel
lent supplement to the diet of
chickens. Such hays are rich in
vitamin A and O, and also con
tain minerals and valuable pro
teins. The hay should be fed In
rack in the laying house.

Q. How can I prevent my wbrk-

A. Call in the veterinarian and
have thé animals vaccinated,
says Dr. C. D. Orinnells, veter
inarian for the Agricultural Ex
periment Station at State Col
lege. County Agent 0. a. Win
chester of Jones oounty reported
the loM of 20 horses «nd mules
In one week. County agent W. V.
Hays eaya that blind staggera
has been reported In practically
every community in Washington
county and that moat horaea and
mules are being vaccinated, “No
vaccinated stock haa been loat
from this disease to date,” Hays
says.
Q. How should I handle my
woods to maintain a good stand
of growingt imber?
A. The first step Is to cut out
worthless and low-quality trees
in the average woods, says Ex
tension foresters at State. Col
lege. Second, cut only the larger
trees because logging and milling
costs will be lower. Then, take
advantage of the pulpwood mar
ket by converting three tops and
whole trees, that will not make
sawlogs, into pulpwood. In
managing mixed stands of pine
and hardwood, selective logging
returnes the greatest dividends.

NEW STATE PRESS HEAD
We hasten to extend our congratulations to Harvey
Laffoon, our Elkin neighbor who is editor and publisher
of the Tribune, as the new president of the N. C. Press As
sociation.
Any person who accepts such a post does so in the
knowledge that he must devote a considerable portion of
his time during his tenure towards the unselfish task of
promoting the betterment of newspapers. That is particu
larly true in the non-daily field with somé 165 papers in this
state.
Harvey has delnonstrated that he has a highly success
ful non-daily paper and the honor he received last week
at Raleigh might well have been bestowed for that ac
complishment alone. Yet we doubt that the recognition
came primarily from this source.
A loveable fellow personally, he makes friends easily;
has a good sense of humor; likes newspaper work and news
paper people; is a hard and conscientious worker. We hap
pen to know that one of his objectives as president will
be 100 percent enrollment of all newspapers in the state
as members of the N. C. P. A. Towards that attainment
of that and other goals,- he will spend much time and en
ergy during the coming year. We predict for him and his
co-workers a full measure of success.
THE JOB MUST BE FINISHED
In our eagerness to get our soldiers back home we
may endanger the things for which they fought. It will
be easy for us to drop Into an easy, forgivable mood and
trust blindly that things will work out alright. We Ameri
cans have a way of doing that. But, on the whole, we are
learning that things Just don’t work out of themselves;
vre have to work them out with intelligence and with ef-
lort which costs something. We must not forget sòme
things, even though we sincerely wish to have both Oer-
many and Japan take their places among the decent
nations of the world. We would not nurture hatred and re
venge, but we do warn our people that they must not for
get the abominable philosophies which made it necessary
for us to go to war; we miist not forget the atrocities of
the Germans and Japanese ,in which they tortured, starved,
and killed our boys. The guilty persons should be brought
to justice, and our armies should stay in control of those
countries long enough to see to it that it is a New Ger
many and a New Japan which comes out of the conflict.
We must not grow weary in well doing.

Children Get

. Thirty-two cards were sent out
to the parents of children from
the Cooleemee schools last Aug
ust. These caHs «tated that their
children had bèen exam ln^ in
a pre-school clinic and the ex
amination showed that these
children had defective eye sight.
The parents were, asked to come
to the clinics and be screened
and If they could not afford a
thorough examination and glass
es for their children, the state
would pay for the examination
and the Lions Club of Cooleemee
would pay for the glasses.,
After the screen test of the
parents four children were tak
en to Winston-Salem last Thurs
day by Mrs. Paul Donelly of the
County Welfare office. Dr. Wll-
sle examined the children and
three were found to need glasses.
The Cooleemee Lions Club will
see that these children get their
glasses. Blind wrok Is one of the

TO OUR
CUSTOMERS
The other day, after the day’s work was done, several
or us here were talking about how much the world has changed
since the war started. We were thinking how easy it is, with
demand so great and supply so limited, to become indifferent
to the many opportunities for service that are still ours to use.
Well, to make a long story short, we began to wonder if
by any chance we ever seemed to be unappreciative in the eyes
of our customrs. WE ARE WRITING TO TELL YOU, AS
OUR CUSTOMERS, THAT YOU ARE STILL ABOUT THE
MOST IMPORTANT PERSONS IN OUR BUSINESS
We sincerely appreciate your business and we want you
to know that although the supply of goods is today still limited,
we are grateful for the privilege of serving you and will con
tinue to do this to the very best of our ability.

Farmers Say, Plant
Permanent Pastures
The Agricultural W orkers
Council of Yadkin county and
county agent D. R, Perkins figure
that permanent pasture la the
most economical feed for any
class of livestock. This agrees
with the findings of the Agricul
tural Exprlment Station at State
College and the experience of
farmers and county agents in
all parts of North Carolina.
Here’s how the Yadkin people
put It. Properly managed pasture
will furnish almost one-half of
the total feed at only 15 per cent
of the total feed cost. An everage
cow on bam feed will consume
feed worth about 50 cents a day.
The same cow on pasture plus
8 pounds of grain and 2 pounds
of hay per day will have a dally
feed cost of only 26 cents.
Livestock like good pasture
grasses and legumes, and they
do their own harvesting,' thus
cutting^ down labor requirements.
The health value of pasture is
one of its greatest advantages.
Fertilizer, lie, and good seed
costs for one acre of permanent
pasture In Yadkin county are fig
ured at $21.05 an acre. When
these costs are spread over 15
years, they amount to only $1,40
a year. An Investment In pasture
now will help cushion the shocks
of the coming years when com
petition Is dairying and beef cat
tle growing becomes more keen.
The average maintenance cost
on an acre of permanent pasture
Is $2.60 a year for fertilizer.
The estimated cost of seed and
fertilizer to produce temporary
grazing for winter and summer
Is $17.19 per acre.
Farmers should keep in mind
that there is a maximum pay
ment through the AAA of $6,00
an acre on the seeding of perma
nent pastures and then there are
also payments of fertlllzeni
"No farmer, large or small, can
afford to miss the opportunity
of seeding permanent pastures
ivt this time,” Perkins says.
