When your
little one
catches
cold-
Tonight ... do what most
mothers do to relieve mis
eries of children’s colds:
Simply rub warming, sooth
ing Vicks Vapoßub on
throat, chest and back at
bedtime. Results are so good
because Vapoßub’s special
relie f-bringing action starts
instantly . . . and keeps on
working for hours during
the night while the child
sleeps. Often by morning
most misery of the cold is
gone. Remember. Mother.
be sure you get the one and
onlv Vicks Vapoßub.

telephone ahead of their
friends who have been
waiting a longer time.
The reason for this is that
cable facilities are open in g (
some locations, while not .
in others. Lack of cable g
facilities is a major cause
for the delay in expand- p
ing telephone service. For
this reason we must make P
full use of existing cable g

| The Country Doctor His Tribe Is Vanishing
! Y ' •. *1 .
I
l-’ast- fading from the American scene is;the- country doctor.
The ranks of those hardy men who have contributed so much to the
rich, heritage of the American medical profession are growing small
er every year. As the old timers die or retire, few young doctors
move in to take their place, since most modernmedical school gradu
ates establish in urban centers. With the shortage of rural doctors
now a definite menace to the health of farm families, the State
Medical Care Commission has put forth'a plan which offers a solu
tion to the problem. The Good Health Association has undertaken to
acquaint the people of the State with the Medical (.are plan ami the
urgent need for its adoption.
Hatchery Production
Trailing Last Year
North Carolina commercial hatch
eries produced approximately 593,000
chicks during September, according
to the: Federal-State Crop Reporting,
Service. This production is 57 per
cent less than the 1,118,000 chicks
hatched during the same month last
year and 18 per cent less than the
five-year (1940-44) average.
At the present time the demand
for chicks for commercial broiler pro
duction exceeds the output, which, is
partly due to the limited supply of
hatching eggs. The supply of hatch
ing eggs is gradually improving, j
however, and with pullets coming in- j
to production, hatching eggs should'
be plentiful it, a few months.
For the first nine months of, this;
year (January to September inetu
siye). commercial hatcheries pro
duced approximately 27,295,000
chicks. This compares with a pro
duction of 82,774.000 chicks for the
-ami- period in 1915.
Veterans Administration homes for
disabled or aged veterans had th.fr
origin in the National \sylum for
1 Visa-bled Volunteer Soldier- establish
ed in 1805 at the end of the Civil
War.

Soybeans, grown in rotation with

have proved a satisfactory source of
nitrogen for the tobacco.
Tests run by the N. ('. Agricultural
Experiment Station, in which this was

tobacco following the soybeans aver
