Careful division of backyard areas with redwood fences actually multiplies the area's ;;jiaefulness. This red wood "new math" separates gardcM into use areas-play yard, Jantertaining fiatio, and servijK are forexample. Thought ful manning can also provide' hidden terraces, con versation niches and private sunning spots. Hie selection of proper materials for fence construc tion is as important as the lo cation and design of those structures. The Garden Grades of redwood Con struction Heart, Construction Common, and Merchantable are ideal for fences because they are beautiful, durable and economical. Redwood garden grades contain knots and sometimes sapwood (the creamy -white streaks i . that mntrQat with the ripen red l .'i' ' i . i . i ...was . - r- -. heart wood), but these do not detract from the performance of the wood when the proper grade is used. Garden projects, like gar den flowers, must be planned well ahead of time. Redwood, America's fastest growing conifer and also one of our most natural garden materi als, is in heavy demand as more and more Americans discover the joys of outdoor living. Planning and ordering your materials as far in ad vance as possible will assure that they are on hand when you need them.

Distaff Deeds Importance of Fabric, Clothing Labels Cited By JANICE CHRISTENSEN It's important for homemakers to under stand labels before they buy fabrics or' ready made clothing. Jt l With the increasing number of synthetic fib ers on the market- and the different types of fabric texturizing and finishes, it is impossible to judge performance and care of the fabric with out the knowledge sup plied by the . label, emphasizes Mrs. Joyce Hildreth, home econom ics extension agent, Rockingham County. One often misunder stood statement found on labels is "exclusive of ornamentation," the agent adds. This means that no care instructions are given for garment trims, such as lace, buttons or braid. 3fij0mll i a special JgjMon on "Understand i Clothing Hangtags," county homemakers have Mimed to become better sfiypers, Mrs. Hildreth verified. And each homemaker its up to her to take the time to read ljdels and to learn what . the different terms mean, the agent noted. MAKING PANTS Making pants for yourself or some other family member? Here's ft hint from Mrs. Martha B. Adams, homeeconom hH extension agent, Richmond County. After making nec essary pattern altera tions, and cutting out the pants, sew uptheinseams first; then the crotch seam. This leaves the WET, WARM The early spring brought ' ' interesting' ' weather to North Caro lina. It was both wetter and warmer than usual. Some areas of the state received over 16 Inches of rainfall, well above normal. Frequency of the rains, even in areas that received much less total rainfall, was un usual. Rain fell at some weather stations more than 20 of the 31 days. Temperatures were above normal and the' warmest in about 35 years. side seams open. Try on the pants, right side out, and pin side seams to fit, as you would fit a skirt. Mark with chalk on wrong side along pins; turn right sides together, pin, and stitch along chalk markings. ; t BIG PICKLE Mrs. Opal Callihan, Tabor City, Rt. 2, was in a big pickle last year. She couldn't find enough watermelons to meet the demand for her water melon rind pickels. Mrs. . Caltthan has been selling her home conserved products at the Senc-Crafts store, Lake Waccamaw for six years, explains Mrs. Yvonne Ray,: home economics extension agent, Colum bus County. In addition to canning and freezing the family's food supply, the home maker likes to put aside jars of relishes, preserves, pickles and spiced grapes as gifts for friends and family. "This year," the homemaker told the agent, "I'm not going to run short of water melons. I'm going to plant my own supply." By M. E. Gardner N. C.State University i ", a'is the day of the environmentalist. Some of us, many years ago, tried to point out thb pitfalls, but we only had a wee small voice. , It appears that we drag along in apathy until our problems become so acute that they are dif ficult and, sometimes, impossible to solve. R is unfortunate that many of our present day envi ronmentalists live in air conditioned cars and houses and are not attuned to the. real problems facing us. Keeping in touch with nature is increas ingly needful. Ancient scourages of the human race have disappeared but new ones are appear ing, not the least of which is the separation of man from the unending beauties of nature. In the past one hundred years, man has made greater material progress than in all of his existence. In doing so, he has replaced the fragrance of forests and fields with the smell of internal combustion en gines and the reek of factories and the end is not in sight. He has overrun the wilderness, polluted once sparkling streams of clear water and hemmed himself in with canyons of buildings. He has swamped his senses with impressions utterly foreign to the natural way of life. Our nature study parks and national forests provide restful spots where man has not intruded with modern ways. Some are. a part of the original face of this country, giving us some appreciation of primeval forces. We are now faced with the problem of providing qs: hNI HD Hkfl .aaaM I bjmhj toH gggggfig ' ' Twist-toaether furniture is boon to homemakers! No tools. No glue. Ttft .

People who fled from cluttered city streets to the suburbs 25 years ago are nit facing other people's windows and once again are searching for open spaces. It seems to be the tendency of our machine civilization to wipe out every trace of what was once primitive wilder ness. The preservation of natural lands is essential if we are to understand the natural laws which govern soil conservation, plants and animals, and their inter relationships. State and national parks and forests give us an opportunity to renew our touch with the land, to draw strength from it and to ponder the mysteries and wonders of nature. There is serenity to be founds and a place where we can walk and think alone; where every sight, every scent, every sound has meaning and makes us increasingly conscious of something we are about to lose unless we plan better MORE TURKEYS North Carolina tur key production continues to climb.

Mommy, No. This is the 100th anniversary of the discovery of the oldest medical book known. Written in Sg y P t 3,500 years ago, around the Jime of the pharaoh Ramses that's his mummy the book includes advice on how women may prevent preg nancy. The so-called Ebers Papyrus advised women to use a var iety of strange things such as honey, wool and dates; also the fermented juices of acacia tree leaves. These contain lac tic acid, which was used for contraception even in recent times. Today, however, there are far better and more reliable spermicides like Conceptrol and Delfen that can even be obtained easily in drugstores without prescription. So while Ramses became a mummy, you can decide for yourself about becoming a mommy. JESSING HORSEPOWER Does one horse's power equal one horsepower? "Neigh," says the Teacher's Scotch Informa tion Centre. The average workhorse can produce only two-thirds of one horsepower. But don't accuse the horse of not doing his best. The blame belongs to a canny Scotsman, James Watt, who not only invented the steam engine but also fill to assist him in selling his new-fangled engines to mine operators.

"This form of listen ing isn't eavesdropping," i she points out. It's away to find out some of your - child's innermost feel ings about himself, about his lot in life, about his feelings toward others. , Also listen when the child tries to talk to you. Too often parents are - likely to want to tell a child what to do, rather than posing a question that makes a child think about his own choices. ft often takes a tot of patience to hear a child out especially when he's slow at getting around to the point, Mrs. Haywood says. But cutting him off with a "hurry up, I haven't got all day," will lessen your chances of a good communication channel with your child later. He'll be more free about telling you his troubles, his joys, his learns to think on his feet who's more open and willing to converse with others once he gets out into the more competitive worMf pjV' It'll help him get ready for participation in school, too. plans when he gets older if you let him know you' re interested in what he has to say when he's little and eager to tell all. Show interest in what he has to say, even though it may seem trivial, Mrs. Haywood recommends. And ask him leading questions to encourage him to talk all the more. This is a good step toward having a child who Being Free to Fail Is One Secret to Success RALEIGH ?M The secret of success what is it? Probably not what most persons are inclined to think. - Some think that the basic quality of human nature . is that of being responsible for one's life. That means a per son must be free to fail, as well as free to succeed, notes Mrs. Faye Haywood extension fam ily life specialist, North Carolina State University. The human being has some unavoidable, basic responsibilities. These include deciding how to develop his potential, and deciding on what is right and wrong, says Mrs. Haywood. No one else can assume these tasks for him. The oreatlve person, the successful person, has mi attidue of open ness to experience, Mrs. Haywood observes. He accepts each event, good or -bad, as a new challenge, a new revela tion of life. He tries to put something together out of life, given the pieces that his position gives him. He is aware that there is no one quite like him, no one who has the same collection of inherited traits and the same combination of expe riences. He knows that each of his responses will be special and unique, that no one else will be able to see and feel about a situation the same way he does. The future for Mm is an open book, one that he can affect in his own, unique way. He can afford to fail, because he is Modern Steel in Sculpting and Spreaders I n Mm Corten steel has a wide variety of uses because of its rust-resisting qualities. The diversity of uses is illus trated in these tw;o photos. On the farm it is used fat the side panels of this New Holland manure spreader. Despite the highly corrosive nature of animal wastes, the manufacturer guarantees to replace the spreader sides if they ever rust out. Animal manure has been proven to be even more effective as a fertilizer than many com mercial fertilizer, making this an important part of the farming scene today. But, art in the city is an other 'aspect of the modern steel scene as illustrated by the photo at left. The 22 2 foot-high Corten steel sculp ting by Louis Nevelson graces the southeast en trance to Central Park in New York City. Valued at $150,000 the sculpting was donated to the city by the artist, v. .'
