MISS RUTH BOOE I The recent announcement by Miss Ruth Booe, pres ident of the local home demonstration club, that the club would donate two war bonds and service for 40 to the Rotary club, reminds us once more of what a public-spir- ited woman Miss Ruth is. For years she has given of her time and energy to help local civic projects. She goes about such work with more devotion than many would who were receiving pay— arriving early, staying late. .......Whereyei; a.woman’s time and .taJent are needed, Miss Ruth Is always on hand. She is one of those rare indi viduals who just goes about constantly seeking things to do for her community. And, my, how she works at iU Without any ostentation, and thought of reward. Sad will be the day for all of us wfhen time, as It must, will ^ckon a halt In the activities of dear Miss Ruth. A CONFUSED PICTURE— It may not have been an accident that we had three speeches In recent weeks, by persons in high places. Mr. Vandenburg, Mr. Byrnes, and Mr. Winston Churchill. All three moved along the same line, through Mr. Church ill’s took one more step than the others. These were, in our humble opinion, a sort of diplomatic way of telling the American people that our relationships with Russia had undergone a great change In a very short time. Our re lationships with Russia, measured by those speeches— and we have reason to believe that the speeches were plan ned— have suddenly reverted to the condition existing in the years when we refused to recognize the Communist government. That is certainly the picture presented in the press and over the radio; by columnists and commentators. As reflected by those agencies the American people were sad dened and sobered into the realization that we might be on the verge of war with Russia— and that is something too terrible to contemplate. Fortunately, sobered thinkers are asking us to hold judgment, and to gather all the facts possible. As pre sented by press and radio Russia’s policy is out of har mony with the Atlantic Charter, and Communism again marches. The Pope and the Catholic Church have been quick to sccond that motion. Communism, they say, is the enemy of the Church. Before we can comment with any degree of intelli gence upon this state of things, we must examine the source of the warnings. The unanimity with which the im pressions were made last week makes us suspicious that pi'opaganda sis at work, rather than patriotism. Mr. Churchill’s warnings were timely, and we suspect based on more information than the public has,, but Russia does have a case; she does have some arguments. It is true that she has contributed to misunderstandings and sus picion by her refusal to permit freedom to Americans to visit Russia. But we know that Fascism is still with us, powerfully organized, and constantly at work. Before we get too hysterical over Russian policy and activities let us examine some more facts. FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY— Discussion relative to the atomic bomb, in our humble opinion, waste a lot of breath, It is extremely doublful if we alone hold its secret. It would not require a Sherlock Holmes to deduct from Russia’s actions the fact that she already has the secret, At any rate, it cannot long be kept a secret, and we must reckon with the fact thatin the event of another war we shall have atomic bombs falling on America, It is no wonder that our statesmen are wearing long faces tliese days, and talking in sobered terms. We freely admit that thei-e are grounds for appre hension in our relationships with Russia, but the remedy is not to close the door on better understandings and clos er cooperation. We are thoroughly in accord with much, not all, that Mr. Churchill had to say. There should be closer unity and cooperation between England and America, not for the purpose of power politics, but for the purpose of making cooperation with Russia easier, and for the strengthening of UNO. For America to isolate herself from England would be committment to a suicidal policy but before we magnify war too much let us explore every possible road to cooperation through UNO. We must confess to great distrust of propaganda M EAL MUST AWAIT COTTON HARVEST In an interview regarding pos .slble relief for farmers, current ly handlcaped by critical short ages of protein feeds, Cotton Specialist J. A, Shanklln of the State College Extension service declared that there can be no appreciable Increase in tho do mestlc supply of protein meals until the 1946 cotton crop Is har vested, "Cottonseed meal Is regarded as the best protein feed and If the country’s lint production goal of 20,000,000 acres pro'3uces a good yield this year," Shank lln said, “the feed situation will be vastly improved." Meanwhile, the cotton spe cialist pointed to recommenda tions of Extension agronomists for the- improvement and ex pansion of North Carolina pas ture lands as the only "imme diate means’’ toward local relief in the problem o^ providing ade quate feed for farm animals, ...The country’s need- for cotton seed as a source of food-oll Is also critical, Shanklln observed, H, L, Meacham, marketing specialist of the Extension Serv ice, earlier had predicted that Tar Heel cotton acreage this year would fall considerably short of the assigned goal of 740,000 acres, principally be cause of the lack of good plant ing seed and waning Interest among producers In cotton as a cash crop. Unfavorable weather conditions took a heavy toll of seed from the state’s 1945 crop, Shanklln declared that cot ton still can be grown at a good profit In North Carolina, pro vided, It was added, production costs are reduced through the use of adapted varieties ot cer tified seed and a proper program of fertilization, “About this girl you want to marry; has she good connec tions”. asked a proud mother. "Well, she never came apart when I was with her," replied the sailor. Oland Peele of Plkevllle In Wayne county, seeded an acre and a half of pasture in Septem ber, 1945, has grazed an average of 15 hogs on the plot since No vember, cutting feed costs by one-third. Lespedeza and soybeans are the principal summer iBgumes In North Carolina. State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By Ruth Current N. C. State College Stooping Is the cause of much washday fatigue yet most of it Is unnecessary, say home man agement specialists. The family laundress often stoops to sort clothes on the floor and again to pick them up from the floor. They also stoop over low tubs, washing machines and clothes baskets. Stooping Is the mo.?t tiring part of the laundry Job. Equipment should be ele vated to save stooping. All the work of .sorting, re moving stains and starching can be done at a large, high table that allows the worker to stand erect without strain. If there Is no table that can be used for this purpose, one can easily be Im provised by placing boards across trestles or sawhorses, or by build ing a wide shelf. Washing and rinsing can be done with little stooping If wash_' ing machines,' tubs' arid' baskets are raised -to a comfortable height, and If the worker uses a sturdy stick to lift clothes out of suds or hot rinse water In stead ot bending over and lifting them out by hand. Stooping when hanging clothes on the line is not necessary if the clothes bas ket is placed at waist level on a wheeled cart. Directions for mak ing the wheel cart may be had from Pauline Gordon, Extension Economist in Home Manage ment, State College, Raleigh, N, C. "Remember what I told you last Sunday, children, that you should all try to make someone happy during the week?" asked the Sunday school teacher, “Well, how many of you did so this week?” "I did, teacher,” volunteered one child brightly, “That’s fine,” approved teach er "What did you do?” "I went to see Aunt May,” re plied the boy, “and she’s always happy when I go home,” Admiral Sims, at a luncheon in London, spoke of a difference between English and American carriage of deportment, "An Eng lishman,” said the witty admiral, “walks Into a restaurant as if ho owned it. An American walks in as if h edldn’t care who owned it." S O T H E C O P S C A U G H T U P T O H IM Keep bread cool and well cow. ered to prevent mold and dry ing out. The refrigerator Is the best place to store well-wrapped loaf If there Is room. Otherwise keep It in a ventilated bread box In a cool place say food special ists. The bread box needs washing, rinsing with boiling water, and thorough drying and airing, in the sun If possible, at regular Intervals. If mold appears on bread, discard that part of the bread at once, and wash the bread box thoroughly to prevent spread of mold. Two hundred and fifty grafted black walnut trees of the Thom as variety will be allotted for demonstration work to farmers In Avery, Buncombe, Haywood, Madison and Swain counties.

Use Care In Saving Those Hatching Eggs Care in saving hatching eggs and in the general condition of the breeding flock will pay ex cellent dividends, A premium Is generally paid for eggs of high hatchability and this means pre mium is of great importance in determining the profits of the breeding flock. T, T. Brown, Extension poultry specialist at State College, gives three suggestions for increasing the hatchability of the gees, or for preventing the hatchability from declining, , Guard- the health of the breeding |blrds. The breeding flock should be pullorum-free, adequately housed, and fed a balanced diet. 2, Hatching eggs should be col lected several times a day to prevent tho eggs from becoming chilled during cold weather, 3, The eggs should be stored in containers that permit air circu lation and in a room that la somewhat moist and has a con- .stant temperature of between 50 and 60 degrees. Brown also suggests that de liveries of hatching eggs to the hatchery be made at least once a week because eggs that are held too long may decline in hatchability. “Cleaned eggs should not be sent to the hatchery,” says Brown, "because the eggs may have been damaged In the clean ing process and the hatchability may have dropped,” He also points out that the eggs should be carefully graded, removing those eggs with poor shell texture, those that are ir regular In shape, and both the large and small sizes. “The in terests of tlie liatcherymah and the producer of iiatchlng eggs are very closely related,” Brown says, “and best results are ob tained when both work for tho same high standards,” Owen Richards, manager of the American Dairy association, blames OPA policies for the shortage of butter and says that milk Is next on the list for an acute sliortage. The bread ration in France and Italy is half a loaf per day while two-thirds of the Individ ual’s diet is made up of bread.

He left his I car and followed tlic .sad-sweet strains until he found a clearing in the forest where, on a, little cabin porch, .sat an old darky, a red-hcaded boy of twelve, and a dog—in j the middle of a music le.ssonl ЛИ unseen, the artist set up j his easel and soon, upon the canvas, appeared the boy, all j thumbs, his face screwed up in earnest effort, manfully ' struggling with the stringed instrument; the dog looking on in painful apprehension; the old man patiently urging: 1 “Jcs’ hoi’ it natchel. Sonny—thataway, natchel!” This beautiful painting by Ily Ilintermeistor was fea tured on the 1935 Uncle Natchel calendar, and introduced to a million people the familiar figvire of “Uncle Natchel”, tlie kindly old man who has appeared ever since as tlie symbol of Natural Chilean Nitrate of Soda. Uncle Natchel is really a rare and lovable character. GroNvn old in the employ of Sonny’s family, he is known to everyone for miles around for his inexhaustible supply of stories about the wonders of Nature and his belief that tlie best way to do anything is the "Natchel” way. And that, of coursc, is how he got his name. CHILIAN NITRATE off SOBA TURKEY FOOT Mr. and Mrs. Poy Reavls and daughter, Brenda Sue, spent Sun_ day night with Mr. and Mrs. John West.

And he’s a low down, nasty, common scoundrel. He’s a disease mon ger and a disease spreader. He’s no better than a murderer. He's born In filth and frequents the filthiest places on earth, and yet he has the nerve to Impose him self upon decent people and even eat with them. On his feet and hands and mouth there is inva riably the most despised nasti ness that the human mind has knowledge of and probably more. He Is better known as thp com mon house fly. The female of the species deposits from 100 to 150 eggs at one time and will lay severaie such batclies hi th course of her life which is about 30 days. It is said that a single j__ 6 6 6 COLD PREPARATIONS LIQUID, TABLETS, SALVE, NOSE DROPS.Caution use only as directed female fly may bring forth as many as 2,000 offspring from the time she starts to the time of her old age (one month). I n proper moisture, warmth and filth of decaying matter, the fly eggs hatch to make small white maggots. These feed upon rot ting matter. In four or five days the maggot develops legs and wings and emerges as the fly. The adult fly prefers- foul mat ter and fllth but will feed upon almoist any kind of food. Prom human excreta and other fllth it contaminates its mouth and feet with all kinds of germs and plants them upon whatever it crawls or feeds upon. It may spread all kinds of diseases es pecially the Intestinal infec tions such as typhoid fever, dy sentery, cholera, iutestlnai par asites (worms), and it Is quite possible that he Is also involved In our epidemics of poliomyeli tis since that disease generally makes its appearance during the height of the|fly season, to wit; July, August and September. The greatest breeding places for flies are stables, manure plios, privies and fermenting wastes sucli as garbags. Warmth, moisture and soluble foods are e.ssenllal to the development of the maggots. after the game.. Allmilt CornPént^Btnmia in Altanta, CkatMlt. CHallawota. Noi/elk.

The flies are attracted to food by odor. They prefer well light ed places. They love to rest on vertical surfaces and hang ing objects. The Intelligent control of flies Is based upon: a. The elimination of breed ing places. b. The destruction of adult flies by traps, fly paper, poison sprays, swatting, dusting pow der, fumigation. c. It Is Important to keep them away from our dairy houses, kitchens, pantries, din ing rooms and liouses by effec tive screening. Kerosene sprays and crude oil properly used in breeding places is very effective. The most ef fective agent against the adult fly Is D.D.T., the newly discov ered insecticide. We should begin our attacks against the breeding of flies now. For full information write for a Ply Control Bulletin from the N .C. State Board of Health, Raleigh, N. C.

' Statelloves To Up " Average Com Yield Seeking to lift the stat« from the 20-bushel class In corn pro duction — the lowly average maintained by North Carolina tor the past 30 years—farmers and certified seed producers are mapping active plans to use in creased quantities of quality seed and more top dressing on the 1940 crop, it was announced by Dr. I. O. Schaub, director of the State College Extension service. One of the first counties to take an active step toward in creased corn yields this year is Beaufort, where County Agent W . L. McOahey has announced the forming of a "3 to 1 Corn Club,” members of which will atrlve to produce three times as much corn as the county aver age. Beaufort county’s average corn yield for the past 30 years has been about 21 bushels per acre. If only a relatively low percentage of the approximate ly 800 growers In the county join the club, McGahey feels that there is a good chance to Increase the overall county yield by 1 bushels per acre this year. At a dollar a bushel on the county’s average planted acreage of 44,000, the Increased cash return would be $440,000, enough to more than pay farmer taxes. Members of the club who attain the objective will rewarfl themselves through, the simple expedient of increased yields, the county agent obsei’ved. McGahey recommends that corn be fertilized to “fit the soil conditions and past cropping history, using 400 to 500 pounds of a high grade fertilizer, 6-8-6 or 5-7-5, per acre”. Three hun dred to 400 pounds of nitrate of soda at last cultivation Is also recommended. Feat soils should get a 2-12-12 fertilizer. Agronomists encourage farm ers to get a free soil test before applying more than one ton of lime to farm land.

Mr. Low- rance lamented that many of the best minds were not coming into the teaching profession at present because of the poor sal aries In comparison with other lines. “A service club like yours can do more to help young high school people find themselves than any other agency 1 know,” Mr. Lowrance said. “You gen tlemen are specialists in your respective fields. You can .talk to the boys and girls, tell them about the type of work In which you are engaged and then they can have the information and inspiration on which to pursue their vocation.” R. B. Sanford, Jr., and Philip S. Young were inducted as new members. A commute« composed of Bill Pennington, Grady Ward and Gaither Sanford was appointed to consult with Miss Florence Mackle, home demonstration agent, In observance of clean up week during the third week of this month. Joe Pugh, W. H. Klmrey, Roy S. Brown and L. G. Troxell were guests. Ladles of the Presbyterian auxiliary served a creamcd chicken, with mushrooms, din ner with homemade mincemeat pie. President Kim Sheek presided with his usual aplomb. John LeGrand was In charge of the program and presented Mr. Lowrance. George Rowland, local mer chant, donated a floor-type os cillating electric fan to the club. Here Are Tips For Handling Beef Calf Noting that several thousand baby beef calves are now being fed out for spring and fall fat stock shows by farm lads in ev ery section of the state, H. Bruce Butler, assistant Wake county farm agent, says that “by this time all calves should be on full feed,” using one of the home- mixed feeds such as the fol lowing: Eight pounds of cracked corn, two pounds cracked oats and one pound of cotton seed meal. The above ration mixture is preferred, Butler reports, add ing that the following may be used if oats are not available: Ten poimds ot corn and cob meal with one pound of cotton seed meal. Butler explained that “full” feed means keeping feed before tho calf in a trough about’ 14 Inche,? above tho ground with a box containing loose table salt alongside. Tho calf should be taught to walk slowly beside its handler, Butler continued, Indicating that a rope halter handled from the calf’s left side is a helpful teach ing instrument. SCHOOL GLEE CLUBS TO SING SUNDAY AT COOLEEMEE CHURCH Home Labor Must Meet Farm Demand Labor which farmers them selves can supply or draw from adjacent communities must suf fice in the production of North Carolina crops this year it was anrwunced by F. S. Sloan, state program leader of the State College Extension Service, who said that outside help from ml- grant.s, foreign workers and “Bo- hunks” will be exceedingly short as compared with the volume available in war years. No prison ers of war, wlio worked 312,485 man-days in 58 North .Carolina counties last year, will bo avail able for farm labor after June 1, Sloan reported. Meanwhile, it appeaied doubly imperative that state farmers pool machinery and available labor on an exchange basis es- peclallyTri perlsliaBircro'^afeas because of the prospect that farmer labor will demand higher pay as Industry ups its wage scale. Sloan al.so reminded that many older and physically-handicapp ed persons who filled In at farm work during wartime, now are leaving the farm in Increasing numbers. Of 9,661 boys and girls under 18 years of age who work ed on farms in the tsate last year, many will not return this year because the patriotic appeal enhanced by the war noW has been lost. On the basis of figures avail able thus far, Sloan declared, it Is expected that less than one in 10 former farm boy veterans will return t-o farms in this state. Brunswick county agent J. E. Dodson reported that of 16 farm lads who entered the armed services during the war from one community in that county, all have since been discharged from service but only one has gone back to the farm. "The only encouragement can offer In connection with the farm labor problem this year,” Sloan said, “Is to figure framers to Increase efficiency by pooling resources.” Lowly Goober Is Experiment Subject Experhnents are continuing In Northhampton county, center of the state’s peanut producing area, to answer at least for that section the long-debated question of whether the lowly goober “ruins the land”. Northhampton county agent E. L, Norton reports that experi ments conducted with peanuts on the J. F. Turner farm, where land was already high in calcium content, showed that very little difference in yields was recorded from the use of different fertili zation plans. Following are listed the yields in pounds per acre of peanuts following the use of 10 different schemes: No treatment: 1 682 pounds; Broadcast 1,200 pounds of do- lomitic limestone in February. 1,672 pounds: Broadcast 2,400 pounds of lime stone In February, 1,734; Six hundred pounds of doloml- tic limestone on top of row after plants came through the ground, 1,792; Six hundred pounds plaster on top of row after plants came through, 1,850; She hundred pounds plaster on The young animal should bo exercised and trained out of doors as the weather permits, the assistant, agent said, and Us coat combed regularly to remove dead hair. The calf should be treated monthly with a sulphor- rotenone mixture to control lice and warbles. Neat, accurate records of the animal’s growth and progress Is a vital part of production, But ler concluded.

Hiatt, superintendent of the Hugh Chatham Memorial hos pital in Elkin, told local Rota rlans at their Tuesday meeting that "the choice blessings of life cannot be bought.” Emphasizing that it is not what a “man has but what he is"' lhat“iiiaT{eT‘hTm“ useTur'and' happy, the speaker said a com munity comes at the end to eval uate an individual lor about what he is. The speaker pointed out the physical blessings of a hand, foot, eye, mind, good appetite which can be used to appreciate life and make friendships in stead of enemies. Dr. Hiatt’s talk was roundly applauded as the homely philos ophy of being a good friend and neighbor, with many shrewd ob servations of the shortcomings of human nature. He especially pointed out that if one would have friends, he must b<! friendly. The joke he told which (Continued on page 8) Town Board Seeks To Ease Traffic Problem At a meeting of the town Iward last week it was decided to take measures to relieve the congest ed parking situation around the square, W. M. Pennington, may or, announces. Parking space for all cars has been designated by white lines and autolsts are asked to ob serve these parking spaces. Vio lators will be given a warning ticket and second offenders will be fl'ned. Mayor Pennington said. The mayor also calls attention to the fact space around flre hy drants had been marked off with yellow paint and no parking is allowed in these areas. In case of a flre it would normally be impossible to get to the hydrant without moving vehicles, it was stated. Double parking In the con gested areas for a long period is a traffic handicap, the mayor further states. “Some people double park, lock their car and go away for a long time. Con sequently, those who are prop erly parked are inconvenienced because they cannot get out un til the other car owner is found.” Another menace Is the park ing of cars on the streets all day by employees of various lo cal business concerns. Mayor Pennington stated that the mer chants' association had urged that such parkers refrain from leaving their cars on the streets all day. He suggested that the town board may be forced to adopt a parking limit, say two hours, such as obtains in sur rounding towns, unless this practice is abolished. Major Tom Ferebee Will Get Married?

Thl.s Is a special strain of Bermuda that far exceeds the common Bei- muda, it being taller growing, W. H. Boyd, near Ijames Cross Road, was recently assisted in making a farm plan for his small farm. Mr. Boyd plans to estab lish alfalfa, improved pasture and some terracing. Mr. Boyd places a high value on some ter racing he did last year. E. W. Harpe has a small farm neaL Rob_erts_ StOiQ,. Jie Js to conserve and improve. He is using some suggestions of the Soil Conservation service in a farm plan he was assisted in making recently. Hubert Boger, near Farming ton, says he is not having to use but half the grain he had to feed his cows before they began grazing a field he sowed for this purpose. Any farmer will find it profitable to provide supple mentary grazing. SOIL EROSION WAITS FOR NO ONE. The 1940 grand champion bull of North Carolina Is Black Gate Big Boy, raised by W. A.

Just any reporter who is honest, energetic and intel ligent. Most of them are. He is a watcher on the heights, overlooking the activ ities of men with calm and dispassionate eyes. ' He makes the whole world vocal. He is the voice of humanity. - • is* a wMte seaTchligtt^^ Upon thè tower.'........ Wrongdoers dread him far more than they dread courts, policemen, prisons or gallows. The ethics of his profession are set forth In one sen tence; “Tell the truth.” His Integrity is akin to a woman’s virtue— above price. No man can buy his silence, no bribe can color his story. He has naught to do with politics, or business, or re ligion, or institutions, or any of the plans of men except to tell about them. He meets and mingles with all kinds of people, and moves in all conditions of society. He is equally at home with a bishop or bandit. They mean nothing to him save a story. He is not responsible for the success or failure of any cause or movement. He merely recites the facts. He gazes on humanity as the moon gazes on the earth. He is the invisible czar of a free people— public opinion. No largesse or subsidy or patronage can control one word he writes. He has no class consciousness. He speaks with equal candor concerning the priest and the pariah, the banker and the tramp, the Jew and the Gentile, the saint and the sinner, the radical and the conservative, the lawmaker and the lawbreaker. They all look alike to him. Bosses and near-bosses, the great and the near-great, kings, emperors and presidents, always show him defer ence, for they know his voice is the roar of the multitude. All great editors were once reporters — reporters at lieart, by choice and by profession. Their keenest delight -was fouhd in writing the news of the day— not ponderous opinions thereon. Horace Greeley, James Gordon Bennett, Charles A. Dana, Henry Watterson, Henry Grady, Jim McCullough, Melville E. Stone, Jim Keeley, Victor Lawson, William Alien White and a myriad of others, soldiers of the pen, found their greatest delight in developing and recording the news of the day. They climbed to the dizziest heights of jour nalistic eminence, but they never ceased to be reporters. Consider the reporter. You may never have met one, but he is a person worth while. “No fidget or reformer. Just a calm obsèrver of ought and must." THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER The local newspaper does not undertake to compete with the dailies, or even to attempt the role of chronicling world events, as it would be invading a field in which it could not comísete, and a field for which it is not intended. It is the business of the local paper to be the medium of exchange for comniunity life, and an instrument for bring ing people together in their interests and efforts for mutual benefit. It may rightly endeavor to bring the interest and effort of the community into unity and harmony with wider efforts for national and social benefit. That is one phase of life which the Enterprise is inter ested. It is idle to talk in social or international terms unless we as individuals, or as groups, and as states or na tions contribute, each, in his own way, and to the best of his ability, towards the larger aim. If there are people about you who have more than you, you are right in sup posing that they have a responsibility to help you to larger life; but you can never expect to receive it unless you are willing to take the same attitude, and lend help to those who are not as fortunate as you. What we are trying to say is that if any of us want to rise we simply cannot do it unless we help the people below us to rise also. The first man who tried to deny his responsibility to his brother became a wanderer upon th eearth. Perhaps that is a bit of moralizing, but we believe it is good sense. Demand for farm products this year continues at an excep tionally high level. Black marketeers continue to cloud the farm feed picture In tills state.

Must Register Some Firearms Machine guns, machine pistols and other automatic firearms brought back as souvenirs by members of the armed forces constitute a serious hazard to law enforcement, it Is stated by P, G. Greer of the Alcoholic Tax Unit of the Internal Aevenue Bureau room 202, postofiflce building, Winston-Salem. ■ Some of these weapons ac quired by theft or purchase have been used by criminals. Mr, Greer states that the Na tional Firearms Act requires that those weapons be registered with his office which is charged with the enforcement of this law. Those who have these wea pons without registration or transfer tiiem without registra tion are subject to a $2,000 fine or five years or both. Those who have such weapons may- ■ communicate....wlUi --Mr.- Greer’s ofllce by letter or in person. If necessary ,a repre sentative will call at the home of the owner to register the weapon. In order for an individual to possess guns coming under this act, they must either be ren dered unserviceable or pay a $200 transfer tax. The Winston office will advise the individual whether the weapon Is unserv iceable or subject to the tax. Most of them are unserviceable, it is pointed out, but they must be registered.

Is Improving, FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Q, What causes the biggest loss In pecan meats and how can It be curbed? A. Probably the pecan weevil, also called the hickory nut weevil.

PULPWOOD^ PÜLPWOOD fULPWOOO PULPV/OOD ULPWOOD . . . b y - p r o d u c t o f p o w e r An ever increasing demand is made on our forests for pulp- wood to be turned into paper bags ond boxes, cardboard, towels, cellophane . . . on through a wide range of usofyj articles, in cluding the finest rayons. These uses' of pulpwood are in addition to the millions of tons needed annually by the presses of America for newsprint. Facing this enormous and ever growing demand, North Caro lina and South Carolina strive to eliminate waste in the forests. In the forests essential to the efficient operation of its sys-. tem, the Duke Power Company has cut 21,483 cords of pulp- wood in the last six years . . . at the same time increasing po tential timber production. Pulpwood on these lands is secured by thinning young forests, cutting trees close to the ground to avoid v/astage in stumps, and by utilizing all tree tops and branches rejected by the sav/- mills. Thus, by eliminating waste, tha Company’s forests added 1500 carloads of pulpwood to Piedmont industry and, by ridding the forests of what would become dead v/ood, removed a tire threat to future yields.

MORE ABOUT Rotacians seemed to have fetched the most chuckles was the one about the sale of a mule by a Baptist dea con to a Methodist steward. The deacon wanted a high price for the mule and the stewara agreed If his note was accepted. After the trade the deacon be gan to worry about the moral risk of a deacon and not satis fied with exactly what the qual ities of a steward were supposed to be, the deacon looked up an old friend and asked what posi tion a steward occupied In the Methodist denomination. , After some discussion, the friend told him: ‘‘Well, a steward In the Meth odist church Is about the same thing as a deacon In the Baptist church." ‘‘Humph, If that’s the case, I have lost another good mule,” replied the deacon as he climbed back Into his buggy and drove off.

C., FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1946 “AU The County News For Everybody”NO. 6 PAUL LUCAS IS ROTARY SPEAKER More production by fewer people at lower cost would seem to be the answer for prosperous iarming as it is optimistically pictured in the future, John Paul Lucas, Jr., head of the pub lic relations department of Duke Power company in Charlotte, told local Rotarians at their Tuesday meeting. However,’ suli^^ cannot come about naturally In an atmosphere of restrictions on output, a "back to land” movememt urged upon people wiho cannot succeasfully com* pete in farming and without reference to the economic prac ticability of supporting an In- creafllng number of people on the land, Mr. Lucas said. "Nor can such a prosperity thrive on an economy of prices based on continued subsidies,” he added. Mr. Lucas pointed out that many perplexities lay ahead in agriculture and rural life. He cited the fact that farmers of this section and the state have never been so desirous of mech anizing their operations, of di versifying and making a more productive business of farmng. “And farmers have never been In a better financial position to carry out their desires,” he added. Yet the speaker cautioned that there are evidences of dif- flculties and disappointments along the way as cited above. In seeking the solution Mr. Lucas said; “An answer to these problems may be found, not in any single cure or program, but In addition to many factors which bear upon the relationship of our agricul tural economy to our urban prosperity, which aflect the quality of rural life, and which can help encourage sound, lo cally sponsored industrial and service enterprises as a means to employ surplus or seasonal farm labor and as markets for iarm production. "In shaping our development we are vitally Interested in keep ing on the farm at least a small proportion of the most capable and intelligent of our young people. It is anticipated that within 50 years 80 per cent of the people in our towns and cit ies wiU have a farm background. The level of living on the farm is therefore a significant factor In shaping the character of the nation as our grandchildren will know it." OlUe McQuage was in charge of the program and presented (Continued on page 8) ROTARY SPEAKER JOHN PAUL LtlCAS, Jr. Egg Hunt To Be Saturday The regular monthly meeting of the offocers and teachers oi the Baptist Sunday school was held Monday night at the home of Mr, and Mrs. George Row land.

C., as Second- Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879. TENSION EASED— What actually appeared as a very serious rupture of relationships between the United States and Russia, now seems to be easing down. For several days the state of mind of the American people was decidedly confused and war-expectant. Mr. Churchill’s speech brought many things into the open which had been discussed much in small groups. It was just as well to have had it brought out, and some doubts dispelled by a better look at things. The relationship between Russia and the United States do appear strained, but as yet we find no reason for too -"muciT-anxiety."“The~attitude-tawaTds-Spain"imd“ h:eT"ai5- tator Franco, leads us to believe that a sizable portion of the uproar over Russia is part of Fascist propaganda. We see no reason whatsoever for the attempt to make a great hero out of Franco, as a defender of religion from the Communists. Between the professed religion of Franco, and the disregard of It in Russia, we would be less afraid of Russia’s brand. There is, in our humble opinion, much more behind the Russian difficulties in UNO than appears on the surface. Somewhere, somebody— or several some bodies are making a lot of noise over Russia in order to divert attention from another movement. Our feeling Is that we should think soberly and form judgment slowly. New Natural IIi!)tory An old negro uncle, driving his wagon along a Tennessee road, was hailed by a white planter "Good mornln’, uncle. How’d your crop turn out?” The negro .shook his head sad ly. "Boss, I plant my cotton, weed It, reatse It, baled It,— an’ den de ducks et It all up.” , “The ducks ate It.” “Yas, suh. It wuz dls way. sent dem bales to Memphis to be sold. Dey deducks sum-pln for de railroad, de’ deducks sum- plri’ for handlln’ it, dey deduckc sum-pln for sending de money back—de ducks got all of Itl” A FIRST STEP— It has been said that talk is cheap, but there are times when it is expensive. While we have talked, discussed, and debated questions relative to management and wages, production has gone down and down. Lack of production Is a serious thing. Production is necessary to secure ne cessities, and to maintain a flow of trade for support. Lack of it breeds, not only a dangerous discontent, but it threat ens the pace of the whole world. Ih our opinion hotheing will so tend to reestablish confidence, quicken morale, and provide a healthier at mosphere for discussion of our problems than a generous How of consumer goods. Every man who is on the job today an creative work is making a distinct contribution to world peace and prosperity. The much talk that we have had has come high. The hum of production machinery now would prove more helpful than the noise of babblers. What’s In A Name? “What are the names of your three fine daughters, mammy?” "De fu’st In Pearl; de sencon’.

Thrifty Spring Pig Program Is Outlined Jack Kelley, Extension animal husbandry expert at State Col lege, has offered the following program for progressive farmers seeking to Improve swine, pro duction to meet ever expanding demand for pork products; “Thrifty spring pigs are turn ed out by vigorous, heavy-pro ducing sows that have been fed the right kind of feed before and after farrowing. “The brood sow should bo hand led during the gestation period, being given enough to keep her In medium condition. The fol lowing feed mixture is recom mended: one bushel of oats, one bushel of corn and six pounds ot fish meal or tankage. High quality mixed supplements can be used. Hand-fed corn with one_ third of a pound of tankage or fish meal per sow is satisfactory. Feed a mineral consisting of 10 parts lime, five parts bone meal, and tw'o parts .salt. In addition the sow should have plenty ot green feed and water. “Sows .should farrow, on a good pasture since this is a health resort for pigs. It a pasture for farrowing is u.sed, tiie cost of weight gains arc cut as much as 15 per cent on corn and 30 per cent on protein supplement.

On tho skirt, pockets should bo placed w'horo the hand slip in naturally. Because arms dif fer in length, the location ot the pocket needs to be tried out be fore final stitching is done. A patch pocket Is more accessible to tho hand if the top is slant ed down toward the side rather than cut straight across, and they are less likely to catch on handles and doorknobs. Pockets should be roomy enough tor a clenched fist to go in and out easily. Reinforce top corners ot pock ets where the greatest strain comes.

C. Health Officer Urges Vaccination of Dogs Walter L, Call of Mocksville has been appointed rabies In spector for Davie county, effec tive April 1, This appointment was made, duly approved and confirmed by the state commis sioner of agrculture In accord ance with existing laws and-reg ulations. Mr. Call will com mence his duties without delay. Dr. Alfred Mordecal, health officer, suggests that all dog- owners In Davie county and all law enforcement officers In this county, familiarize themselves at oncc v;ith the provisions of the North Caroina rabies law enacted in 1935 and amended 19« and 1945. In brief, all dogs 6 months old or over must be Immunized against rabies within the next three months. It Is the respon sibility of the owner to have his dog at the proper place In each township at the appointed time as scheduled and duly adver tised, published, ot.posted, .feK,.the. rabies inspector. Further, the law states that It shall be the duty of each dog-owner to prop erly restrain his dog and assist the rabies inspector in admin istering the vaccine. The rabies inspector is authorized to issue tags and certificates In the case of each animal vaccinated and for his services to collect the sum of seventyfive cents for each animal vaccinated. Dr. Mordecal points out that the purpose of the law and its enforcement is to control rabies, which Is a common disease of dogs transmissible to other an imals and human beings by bites of rabid animals. The av erage citizen is under the im pression that rabies only occurs during the hot days of late sum mer. Dr. Mordecal points out, however, that this disease, while more prevalent In hot weather when many dogs are running about and mixing up, may and actually does occur In any month of the year. Several rabid dogs had tfl be killed in Forsyth county during December and January Just past. Incidentally a number of peoplfe bitten by these dogs had to be subjected to the Pasteur treatment. Dr. Mordecal states that this county has not been canvassed recently with a view to deter mining how many dogs there are, but casual observation causes one to believe that there are not only many nice legiti mate dogs, but also many, ille- giltlmate, ownerless, unclaimed, unfed and unwanted dogs, prowling the towns and roam ing the country. hTese animals are real menaces to the public health and no matter how much we admire dogs and love them, there comes a time when we must submerge our feelings and steel ourselvSs to the necessity of exterminating these uncared for, homeless brutes. The sheriff and other law enforcement of ficers must not be blind to their duties and responsibilities in this respect, he said. Dr. Mordecal calls attention to the fact that at the present time Mr. Call is the only duly ap pointed rabies Inspector in this county. He is a dog man and a dog lover. He has previously served the county In his present capacity and he is considered well qualified for Mils position. The cooperation of all dog own ers and others concerned Is re quested in this important work of guarding our citizens, our pots and other domestic animals against this dreaded disease— rabies, Dr. Mordecal states, Bocause of large stored stocks of government-owned poultry, fanners have been asked to ean as much chicken as possible In 1946 as a means to relieving the market of glut of broilers this spring.

By CARL E. SHELL District Sanitarian The town of Mocksville and Davie county have just finished a cleanup campaign. Some citi zens both in town and country responded splendidly to the ap peal to clean up. Unfortunate ly others did not have time or did not realize the health ¡haz ards ••or“ihe^ralsancd~bf “If aaii" and open garbage. Some of the filling stations and other business places along the highways still have unsight ly piles of tin cans and rubbish around their places, making an eye sore of what should-be a place of beauty to passersby. An inspection tour was made Saturday morning of alleys and back streets in the business sec tion of Mocksvllle, Some back yards had been cleaned and ¡raked and looked like a yard ought to look. Others were a disgrace to any decent place of business, either town or coun try. Some of the items back of on« place were: a rotten fish, rotten tomatoes, rotten potatoes—both sweet and Irish—cabbage and lettuce leaves, oranges, rotten squash, tin cans, paper and trash beyond description. There is no excuse for, such a condition ex cept lack of respect for the rights of other people. All wet garbage should be stored in metal cans with tight- fitting lids, and cans should be kept closed to exclude flies. It takes no more time to put gar bage into a can than it does to throw it on the ground and the problem of removal is greatly simplified. A little forethought in providing proper storage fa cilities and care in usng them will help to eliminate one of Mocksvllle’s sanitary problems.

Johnson gra.ss can not tolerate conthious grazing or frequent mowings. So, tho easie.st way to eradicate this gras.s is to fence off the area in volved and graze It closely for the entire growing period or mow It each time It reaches a height of about eight inches.

Each of the above farmers has found permanent pastures and hay highly profitable and de sirable. Cecil Leagans near Cana con tinues to have splendid supple mentary grazing of small grains. He has not had to feed any hay since he started the spring graz ing, yet he Is getting more milk at much less cost and with less labor. J. M. Eaton near Cana has a nice stand of Ladlno clover and grasses he seeded last fall on some steep eroded land near Eaton’s church.

Chowan County Agent C. W. Overman, quoting the record, says that on his count’s 33,000 acres of woodlands young pines seedlings now represent 22 per cent of wwod growth while hard woods and scrub material con stitute the remainder. However, growing timber, six Inches in dia meter and larger, Is now about equally divided between pine and harwood. Forestry Professor G. K. Slo cum at State College, who re cently participated In a state wide survey of timber conditions reminded that even If pine were not cut selectively It would be almost eliminated by hardwoods in the course of a hundred years. His prime advice to farmers as a corrective measure In stimu lating the growth of pine—more valuable overall than hard woods—is that they provide "sufficient clear space for pine seed and sufficient trees to fur nish the' seed.” State foresters again urged farmers to prune and thin for ests to provide growing room for stralghter, healthier timber. In the provision of lumber for badly needed hou.sos, selective cutting is recommended so as not to dissipate the state’s wood supply. Repeated tests have shown that combination cutting of timber—for both lumber and pulp wood at the same time— will return a better profit than tho cutting of a plot for lum ber or pulpwood alone. “Tho more gardens we have, the more food' we can send abroad, and the more lives we can save,” .says Chester C. Davis, chairman of the Famine Emer gency Committee. Q.

Lit ter from the house was moved to the dairy barn and eight of 12 heifers died before the litter could be thrown away. It Is be lieved that the cows ate some of the litter which had molded. A new USDA miscellaneous publication No. 589, called “Get ting Started in Farming” Is now available free to farmers. Farm Output Should Maintain 1945 Pace At the outset ot the 1946 farm ing season In North Carolina, H. Brooks James, ,farm manage ment specialist and agricultural economics expert of the State College Extension Service, has observed that high tarm incomes, attained In 1945, can be main tained this year only through the continued high-level pro duction of “cash” crops. Here is a summary ot James’ statement; “To secure tho the maximum protit, farmers should produce cash crops at about the 1945 level. Any reduction In tobacco, peanuts or cotton is likely to re duce the net farm in còme. O. course, cash crop production must be kept In line with the labor supply and other produc tion factors. * “Special consideration should be given to the production ot teed crops and to tho development ot grain and livestock which may be more stable than present crops. Once these grain and live stock projects are developed, and their earning power proved, ad- B LIN D C O U P LE IN S P E C T T H EIR FA R M W ORLD W AR II VETERAN Ernest Gay, Jr., of Abington, Mass., who lost his eyesight in a mine explosion in France, and his fiancee, Rosalie Cohen, ot thp lironx, N.

For this period, the year by vcar per cent of profits on sales was: 1942 — 7.34, 1943— 5.59, 1944— 3.95, 1945— 3.93. ©CD®© Public gueii on ptace profit« 1 8.0^ f H four pra-war year averaga profit , . 7 .1 7 ^ In the four peace years of 1938, 1939, 1940, and 1941, the profits of International Harvester Com pany averaged .. . 7.17%. 7'his is well under half of what the public "guessed” for all industry. ® “ » ® ® '"C > Majority think fair profit ia normal times it........lO r IH ten-year average It laii than H The survey indicates tho public knows that in our economy prof its are indispensable. And the majority regard 1 0 % as a fair rate of profit in normal times. Many large businesses, including ourselves, would consider it a banner year if wo could reach this figure. Our average profit for the last ten years—four war and six peace— was 6.43% — more than a third less than what the public considers fair. All these figures show that our profits are not high. As a matter of fact, tiie entire IVirm machinery industry ia a low profit industry. In 1944, tho Federal Trade Com mission published a list of 76 in dustries ranked in order of tiieir ratio of profits to sales. The farm machinery industry was 57tii on the list. What About Current I H Price*? When the War ended and we planned our peace time produc tion, we iiad iioped to be able to serve our farmer customers at tho same level which has held since 1942, regardless of war time in creases in costs of wages and ma- m[S.P>OFI)!,nt terials up to that time. But re cent developments have forced a change in our plans. There has been no general in crease in our prices since they were frozen by the Government early in 1942. So our situation today is that what we B U Y cost« us 1946 pricee. Wo will bo paying average hourly wages 6 6 % above 1941. For what we S E L L we get only 1942 prices. This condition cannot long bo met out of our present low rate of profit. Fature Prices on i H Products It is plain that price relief will bo needed to ineot tho increased wage and material costs whicii wo must carry We regret this necessity. Wo prefer to lower prices, when pos sible, rather than raise them and wo know our customers prefer to have us do that. Wo had hoped to be able to "hold tho line,” at least. But we do not see how wo can avoid operating at a loss it our prices continue to remain at their present frozen levels. Wo will N O l' '.'cut corners” on any of our products, beeau.se Q U A L IT Y IS T H E F O U N D A T I O N O F O U U BU SIN E SS. Our customers can bo certain that we will seek no moro tiian a moderate profit, both becauso of our policies and becauso we liavo approximately 300 competitors figliting us vigorously for your business. Our request for price relief will be no moro tlian is nec - es.sary to insure continued service to our customers, continued work for our employees, and a reason able return for our stockholders.

FOUR CORNERS ^^'nofjh Caroiina'i ^PglSS ASSOCIATiff ALLIANCES FOR PEACE— We have not changed our minds in regard to close cooperation between the United States and England. It is a necessity born out of the kinship and interest of the two nations. But that does not mean an alliance for special privilege and power, but for creating a power which will serve to make the true prlciples of Democracy work every where. This power should be used with, not against Russia, as she proves her sincere puiiJose to work for the peace of the world. ...... We' Kave no ■^Mre'for the “Uriitea~sraies' fo^^'^^^ behind British Imperialism, nor do we wish for the United States to develop some imperilalsm of its own. When Singapore fell the world realized that British Imperialism was dead. The British Commonwealth of Nations will continue, but not the old Imperialism. As for Russia, we are learning more about a people which seem strange to us. Few people in America are willing to take the trouble to study Russia’s background, In order to understand the Russia of today. This new Russia Is very young. It is something emerging from hundreds of years of ignorance and tyranny imposed by both State and the Orthodox Church. At the present, Russia is under a dictatorship, but a dictatorship which lends itself to the mass of people more than did the old order. Under the Czars about fifteen percent of the Rus sians were literate; today 85 percent are literate. That means, we can hope and believe, that dictatorship will pass Into something of Democracy. It is beginning to appear now— the reason for the Iranian-Russian trouble which once threatened the UNO, and which created a war scare. It is another one of those scranmbles for oil by interests which are none too con siderate of the welfare of peoples. The times certainly come when governments should not protect any special Interests when so doing might involve the world in an other war. LEADERSHIP IMPORTANT— The state of Georgia, so we learn, is to have a political battle in Which former governor Gene Talmadge expects to be the center of attraction. It is none of our business what Georgia does, except that a governor of a state re flects credit or discredit upon the whole United States, as each state is a part of the whole country. However, it is not the business of one state to meddle in the affairs of another state, and we herby declare and pronounce our full intention to refrain from giving advice to Georgia. But we would like to adorn our little piece with a mild reference to leadership of the type which the much gallused Gene on a former occasion. Such leaders usually claim to be the champion of the people, and have succeed ed in winning support from them. We have been around on this mundane sphere for quite sometime and we have never yet beheld and great benefits to the people from demagogic politicians. The people have been benefitted most by men and women who have given their talent, Invested their money, and provided opportunities for mak ing a living, A case in point where good leadership has helped is close at hand. The working people of the south, or any other part of the country, do not need politicians of Tal madge or “Oftr Bob" sort. The country has been quite surprisecf at the success of the CIO, and in some quarters they have been called all the names in the catalouge. But all parties should view what has happened, and what is happening, in the light of cold facts, not blind prejudice. The CIO has succeeded because it has some fine leader ship, Many of the leaders are graduates of the highest institutions of learning in the land; they alre ,expert phychologists as well as humanitarians. If labor wants truly to make progess, let is beware following demogogie politicians, or any ofthose many organizations such as Gerald Smith, Klans, and America Firsters. We would also express the hope that labor would see to it that its leadership is kept in the high ranks, and free from any isms except Americanism. Dr, and Mrs. L.

Stuart’s release said: "Scarce Is the word to describe the supply of North Carolina ad apted, certified hybrid seed corn in certain areas of the state. In other sections the supply Is still adequate. Ctertlfled hybrid corn Is graded to the size ofthe kernels and all sound kernels on the ear are used for seed. It has been customary in the past to use only the flat kernels from the middle ofthe ear. This practice was followed not because the -tip-and-butt' kernels -weTe dam-- aged but because they ordinarily would not pass through the con ventional planted plate. Now the plates are avllable for all sizes of kernels on the standard makes of corn planters, If, of course, the seed Is graded for size. “Olfflclal variety sett records made by Dr, R. P, Moore, State College agronomist, show that the sounds, round kernels from the tip and butt of the corn ear yield just as well as flat kernels from the center ofthe ear. As a matter of fact, you actually get more for your money in buying round seed since there is a high er number of kernels to the bushel,” The current stand of saw tim ber in North Carolina exceeds 42 billion board feet, approxi mately the yearly requirement of limiber In this country.

Combination Cutting Of Timber is Best One of the most conclusive developments at the Warrenton conference of Southern States Forest Fire commission in March was the establishment of proof that timber should be cut In combination — for both lumber and pulpwood, according to R. W. Greaber, lending forester of the Slate College Exten.slon Service. Greaber conducted an exten sive demonstration on the H. M. Hardy farm In Warren county for the visiting foresters. The event, conducted in a forest of 30-ycar-old pine, was staged on a quarter-acre plot with a pre liminary harvest being made to stimulate the faster growth of trees which were left. Results showed that the per acre yield of wood if cut for both lumber and pulpwood would net at least ....37.20 more than If the entire area was cut for pulpwood only. The combination cut produced 11,436 board feet of saw timber worth $114.36, and 11.88 cords of pulpwood worth $55.64, a total of $150. The overall cut for pulp wood ' netted 37.6 cords worth $112.80, leaving a margin of $37.- 20 in favor of the combination. In this analysis, it was assum ed that the mill man would take slabs and edgings. However, if the landowner got tliese “leav ings”, valued at $1.50 per cord, his cash return from the com bination cutting would be In creased by and additional $30. The stumpage prices ot $10 per thousan’d feet for saw timber and $3 per cord for pulpwood are considered about average on the basis of present market fig ures for comparable timber, Gracber said. The farmers of Edgecombe county have won the Atlantic Cotton Association’s 1945 award to tho Nortli Carolina county making the greatest improve ment in cotton production. The winner will receive a trophy. Cotton middling, 15-16th staple, has risen 29 points since Febru ary 15. State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By Ruth Current N. C. State College Many a necktie, now hanging limp and soiled enroute to the rag-bag, could Instead take Its place in the Easter Parade with 3ome skillful home cleaning and pressing, according to clothing specialists. New neckties, like many other items of men’s wear, are now In supply and up in price. Salvage your old neckties, especially prewar ties of true silk. Many of these silks are fast In color, so wash successfully, but the specialists advise first testing a bit of fabric cut from the un derside of the tie. If the fabric is not washable, the tie may be dipped in ono-flamable cleaning fluid. The lining of the tie frequent ly gives trouble in cleaning and pressing. Anchor It In place, be cause it is likely to slip out of position and become lumpy dur ing washing and cleaning. In pressing, the lining may mark the outer fabric. To avoid these difficulties, run basting threads up and down the tie to hold the lining In place before washing or dlping. Remove basting when the tie Is ready for pressing, and slip a piece of cardboard, cut in the shape of the' tie, between the lining and outer fabric. Press the cardboard. It the tie Is silk, a pressing cloth or tissue paper should be used between fabric and iron. Many ties may be freshened with a little sponging. The most likley part to be soiled is whore the fold ofthe fabric comes un der the chin. Prompt sponging with cleaning fluid and perhaps also with a cloth dampened in water may remove the soil. At this place also tho tie is likely to become worn. If the tie is of sufficient length to allow for shortening, the remedy for wear Is to take up the seam in the center a half inch or so which will bring the worn place under the collar and out of sight. If the tie cannot be cleaned or re paired for further wear as a tie, the fabric may be used in other ways—as a bright scarf for a child, a pocket handkerchief, a belt (by stitching onto stiff belt ing) , buttons (by covering but-) ton molds), or edging at neck and sleeves of a dark dress.

County Agent O. P. Owens of liumberton tells this story of how a single winter legume has been used by Ballance to balance his farming program: “Ballance, who now has 90 acres seeded to vetch on his farm near Lumber Bridge, has found 3n recent years that the legume affords an'excellent winter hay and cover crop, a real balance for his farm plan. Ho harvests his own seed. ■ “Forty acres of the present crop will be harvested for hay and seed, the remainder to be turned under for soil Improve ment. “The Robeson farmer says that vetch has proved better than Austrian winter peas as a soil builder. The vetch, when discedonce grew. Into the soil will decompose more rapidly than winter peas. Bal lance Is avoiding the common practice of some farmers In this section of the state who turn under a cover crop too early, not getting full benefit from It. “On a part ot the land now In vetch, corn will be planted. Rows will be run off but vtech will be allowed to continue growth in the middles until after the sacond cultivation. The legume will choitq grass and woods and serve as a much to hold moisture. At lea.st, this is Bailancc’s theory and it will be given a good try this season. “Tiie be.s-c corn cultivation practices will bo a bit complicat ed by this practice but It is ex pected to work to good advantage in tho long run." Yankee military occupants o£ Japan have taught the Nips to keep fish in irrigated rice pad dies, raising two crops where one JA IL -B R E A K K ILLER B R O U G H T B A C K MANACLED AT WHISTS AND ANKLES, Earl McFarland, who is under sentence of death forthe murder of Dorothy Bcr- rand, Ls brought back to Washington, D.

Wall of Liicsville has used strychnine-treated oats to good advantage. However, the control plan must be repeated yearly if good results are ex pected. Further, it is nece.ssary to rid the orchard of vegetation or weeds which might furnish cover for mice. Q. May Sudan grass be used effectively in North Garolina as a summer legume? A. Yes. Sudan grass will fur nish an excellent supplement for temporary grazing In a perma nent grass-legume pasture. It should be seeded at the rate of 30 to 35 pounds per acre if broad cast, or 15 pounds per acre in two-foot rows.

State Collcse Hints To Farm Homemakers By BUTH CURRENT N. C. state College To get the best use from fat in cooking as well as to save It for use again, heed the "no smoking” rule. When fat reaches the smoking point. It starts to break down chemically and three unfortunate things happen: (1) the flavor of the fat and the food cookcd in it is damaged, (2) food fried In smoking fat may have an unhappy effect on the digestive tract, (3) fat that has reached the smoking point will turn rancid more quickly than fat which has not smoked if saved for use again. To prevent fat from smoking, keep heat low when melting fat for sauce or pan-frying. Cook meat at moderate temperature which is best for the protein as well as the fat. Remember, fats vary In amount of heat they can stand. Butter, oleomargarine, drippings and oiive oil all lend to smoke quickly. Hosiery hints: Ravel some yarn from an old- stocking to get the best possible mending thread for snags and runs in hose. The stocking yard is of lighter weight than ordinary mending thread, and will bo less consplcious. Thread from old nylon stockings (if anybody has them old enough to be retired) makes the best and strongest m ind, but a heavy not-so sheer rayon stocking gives an excellent thread for mending. “If each American family would save just half a slice of bread a day, the savings would amount to half million loaves of broad dally,” says Dr. Hazel Etiebellng, Chief oi tho Bureau of Human Nutrition and Home Economics, U. . Department of Agriculture. Removing the stems of straw berries before washing causes some loss of vitamin C. American warehouses were virtually emptied of fresh fruits as of April 1, when just three million bushels of apples and 150,000 bushels of pears remained In government storage. New "Famine" committee asks 25 per cent cut In wheat use. Deer Me—Animals Are Not So Dumb Pass the lime and phosphate. Mama, this grass tastes dead to me. Farmers and agricultural workers throughout the state are reporting now stories every day abaut the discriminating tastes of animals. And even "the blind shall lead them ...” On one farm a blind horse was put on pasture. In the pas ture was a plot which had been treated with a complete mixed fertilizer, and the blind animal ate continually from the treated pasture. The horse was observed eating near the edge of the fer tilized plot one day and when he finally nosed into the unfer tilized area, he immediately drew his head back and continued his meal in the fertilized pasture. From Hyde county in the east and Haywood, Buncombe and other counties in the west come repeated reports that_wlnter grazing deer regularly chose to browse In woodland areas which had been fertilized. Two Wake county dairymen, R. Wilbur Yates and W. B. Banks, both of route 4, Raieigh, experi mented with their cattle by plac_ Ing a good tonnage of lime and phosphate on certain sections of permanent pastures. Immediately upon entering the pastures, cat tle found the treated areas and refused to graze the unfertilized parts. “AU of this' pvovei that animals have a very fine taste discrimination and will always select forage which Is high in iTilneral content because nature has taught them to eat foods which are best for them. One farmer was startled when for three weeks he observed 20 head of cattle remain on 20 acres of corn stalks in a 300-acre corn field which had on fences. Then he remembers having plowed un der 70 pounds of nitrogen per acre on the 20-t^cre strip to regu_ lar fertilizer. Statewide Corn Test Results Announced Results of statewide 1945 tests in corn production have been announced by Dr. Emerson R. Collins, leading Extension ag ronomist at State College. Re sults to date from 273 experi ments in 62 counties showed that close spacing, proper fer tilization and the use of adapted varities of hybrid seed increased normal yields by 20,3 bushels to tho acre and increased farmers’ average net return by $23.35 per acre over usual methods of pro duction. Tost corn yields an average of 60 bushels to tho acrc. Regular “farmer” yields averaged 45,7 bushels. It had been specified at the outset of the demonstration that hybrids be planted on “ave rage” land, plots which normally yielded less than 30 bushels of corn. The state average corn yield has been aroinid 20 bushels for the past 30 years. North Car olina’s more progressive farmers volunteered to make the produc tion tests and made more than twice the average state yield in following customary practices but foil short of tho hybrid mark by more than .50 per cent. Among tho hl.?hest tost yields recorded were 121.4 bushels per acre by C. B. Green of Durham county and 115 bushels by Thad Corlton ot Yadkin county. Shallow cultivation during early growth of the crop and no cultivation after the plants were two and a half foot high was credited by Dr. Collins with greatly Increasing yields. The agronomist said that tor best results corn should be planted In three and half-foot rows at Intervals of 16 to 21 Inches, fer tilized with 300 to 500 pounds ot 6-8-0 fertilizer and top-dressed with the equivalent of 80 pounds of nitrogen. It fertilizer supplies are not up to recommendations, the spacing of plants should be lengthened accordingly. m n THESE WAMTAPi 'j/. fo r w hat YOP WAMT COLORED NEWS By MARGARET W OODRUFF J. A.

State Drlcetor Tom Scott of the AAA says that all such recommendations must be in the Raleigh office by May 1 In order to receive consideration. He adds that conservation payments to N. C. farmers under the program have totaled $34,288,000 between 1936 and 1944. Q. What recommendations aro made for fertilizing, pruning and cultivating watei^melons? The crop should be tertiiizcd with 800 pounds of 0-8-6 fertilizer per acre: cultivation should con tinue from the time the plants come up until vinos cover the ground: pruning, .sometimes call ed thinning, should be done when the largest melons 'arc about four Inches long. Q. What is the best practice to follow in growing red cedar trees? A. (Attention J. B. Hansen, Spring Cove, Va.,) Red Cedar ,to be used for Chrlctmas trees and posts, siiould be planted six feet apart in seven-foot rows. Crops such as soybeans may thus bo cultivated between the rows tor the first tvyo yars ofthe trees’ growth. This spacing also allows sunlight to reach the bottoms of the trees, keeping lowed limbs green. NOTICE TO CREDITORS Having qualified as administrator ot the estate of N. H.

Farm Labor Report Favorable To Crops Probable harvest conditions, labor prospects and likely wage scales in 11 North Carolina com mercial fruit and vegetable areas have been released by Fred Sloan and John W. Crawford, program leaders of the State College Ex tension Service, at the outset of sprlng-summer harvest season. The harvest of 2,000 truck crops, including lettuce, radishes and snap beans. Is already un der way in the Castle Hayne sec tion of New Hanover county where wages for labor range from 30 to 50 ccnts per hour with piece rate pay prevailing in most crops. At least 50 per cent of the 100 migratory workers needed In this area before the harvest season ends in late June are al ready on the job. The survey, made by county agents of the Extension ervlce, indicates that the 15,000-acre Sandhill peach territory is the only harvest area In the state where no auxiliary labor Is yet in sight. Producers in that sec tion need 550 migratory workers between June 24 and August 10. Pay Is expected to be 11 cents per short bushel picked. At least on school house will be available for migrant housing. About 90 per cent of the necessary workers in the 6,800- acre Aurora Irish potato area already are In line. Their pay will probably be 8 cents per bushel behind the digger. Quart ers for migrant workers were de scribed as In “good to fair” con dition. Approximately 95 per cent of the workers needed in the More- head City truck area now are in sight for the May 15-June 15 harvest on 4,415 acres. Pay in this as well as other areas will be scaled according to whether labor crew leaders supply trans portation for workers, whether workers themselves haul crops away from the fields, and other factors , affecting production costs..
