Biggest TV fizzle of the year
was the so-called political satire,
“Potomac Madness,” starring Bob
Hope. The only time TV has
been successful with satires was
on the old Sid Caesar shows.
The former Cuban ambassador
to Great Britain says there are
150,000 Cuban refugees in Flor

should be a substantial answer
to those who claim that this
country is treating Castro un
fairly, and supplying false infor

ness, shown by the folks of the
Rocky Hock community., Busi
nesses Edenton doesn’t have: a
shoe store, a bakery, a bowling
alley, a skating rink. Businesses
Edenton had but were shuttered
in recent months: Chowan Mo
tor Company, Tastee-Freeze, The
Rug Shop, Hiway 17 Drixe-In,
Cherry Restaurant, J & B Motor
Company, Albemarle Motor
Court and Restaurant. That’s
a long list and one ponders the
reasons. Poor managership? . . .
lack of advertising? . . . What?
Richard Rodgers outlasted both
his lyricist partners, Larry Hart
and Oscar Hammerstein the Sec
ond. Beth of his partners’ last
names began with H, if you
can make anything out of that.
Two baseball retirements an
nounced this month: Casey Sten
gel, involuntarily and Ted Wil
liams, voluntarily. Raleigh News
& Observer carried the joke
about the Nixon-Kennedy de
bates not being broadcast as
summer re-runs, and credited a
listener with the job. Said lis
tener picked it up from the
Red Skelton Show. I’m a little
curious about the fuss being
made in the newspaper about
that recent television interview
with Khrushchev. Chief point
of criticism was that it gave
Khrushchev a sounding board 1
for his poison-propaganda. Buti
don’t the newspapers re-print |
most of his speeches and UN!
tirades? Time Magazine and the
New York Post both came out
in favor of giving Kreziozen, the
anti-cancer medicine a fair try,
but bucking the American Med
ical Association is worse than
fighting city hall. They won’t
let anything be put into general
use that they themselves haven’t
perfected. It’s pride versus sav
ing lives. With the AMA, pride
wins hands-down.
Closihg Thought: To get any
where with faith, learn to pray
big prayers. God will rate you
according to the size of your
prayers.
Just Depends
A man was on his way to visit
some friends during summer va
cation. The way led through a
swamp.
“Say,” he asked, “is it true I
that an alligator won’t hurt you
if you carry a torch?”
The guide thought a moment.
“Depends on .how fast you carry
it, I reckon.”
Farm Facts
To become the world’* most
efficient farmer, the Ameri
can farmer has had to step
up vastly his outlay for pro
duction materials. He, thus,
is able to supply his fellow
countrymen with food and fi
ber at prices proportionately
lower in relation to their in
comes than people in other
countries are paying.
Farmers’ expenditures for
labor, farm machinery, feed,
fertilizer, insecticides and
other items increased from
$6.4 billion a year during 1937.-
41 to $25.1 billion in 1958.
Prices of land, machinery,
and equipment have contin
ued upward, and farmers in
general have increased the
over-all sizes of their opera
tions. They are handling more
land, machinery, and live
stock. As a result of this and
inflated prices, the total value
of capital per farm has gone
up.
Total farm investment in
1959 (S2OO billion) was equiva
lent to more than two-thirds
the value of all stocks of cor
porations listed on the New
York Stock Exchange.

“Just four hills yielded four
bushels of butternut squash,” .re
ported Mrs. Otwell, garden lead
er in Caldwell County. Mrs.
Otwell told how she prepared
the squash. “I fried, stewed,
and made casseroles with the
young immature squash but the
mature squash are baked, sliced
thin and fried, or put in cas
seroles,” reports Mrs. Otwell.
Miss Elaine Coulter, assistant
home economics agent, says Mrs.
Otwell has learned that butter
nut squash are good prepared
any way sweet potatoes or
pumpkins are used. A butter
nut squash pudding with whip
cream topping is a delightful
dish.
Pays To Save
“It pays to save,” said Mrs.
Odell Peele, Plymouth, when
she was asked about buttons on
her dress. ‘‘These buttons were
given me off an old duster worn
by my aunt in the horse and
buggy days.” Mrs. Peele has
used and reused the buttons on
garments throughout the years.

has saved many dollars on her
clothing by shopping wisely and
reusing buttons and zippers.
Clothing Projects
Plans have been made for
Mrs. Jo Tucker, Mrs. Ann Rat
liff, and Mrs. C. B. Bunn to
make aprons for Christmas sales.
They plan to sell the aprons
on markets in Chapel Hill,
Southern Pines, and Charlotte.
Miss Anna J. Fitzgerald, as
sistant home economics agent,
reports the project involves mak
ing the Christmas aprons now
to be placed on the market.
They should make beautiful as
well as useful Christmas gifts.
HD Leader Share* Talents
Mrs. J. A. Sauer, who is a
member of the Woodland Horme
Demonstration Club in Wake
County, visited the Western
Boulevard Club. She presented
a demonstration on making fan
cy party sandwiches and can
apes.
Mrs. Margaret Babson, home
economics agent, reports Mrs.
Sauer was originally in the ca
tering business in Ohio. How-
ever, now Mrs. Sauer is shar
ing her talents with club wo
men in Wake County.
Conswrv* Chicken By
Canning
Mrs, T. E. Anderson and Mrs.
Willie Givens of Cherokee Coun
ty agreed to can chicken for
their exhibit at the fair. Their
families raise broilers for mar
ket so they had cull hens avail
able for canning.
Miss Thelma Wheeler, home
economics agent, says the meaty
pieces of one hen would fH into
a quart jar and the boney pieces
were cooked, the meat removed,
and canned with the broth. This
can be a large saving when you
consider that a 6Vfe ounce can
of boned chicken retails for 37
to 43 cents.
