Livestock Controls Dodder In Lespedeza Pasturing iivpstock on lespe deza fields in summer is a .good way ol controlling dodder, or love vine, that infests North Carolina legume fields, said A. C. Kimrey, extension dairy specialist at State College. Dodder is a serious men ace. especially where lespedeza is being grown lor seed. When the animals eat this par asite, comparatively few seeds will be produced, but the lespe deza will later produce seeds lor harvest or for reseeding another cron on the same land the fol lowing year. One dodder plant, al lowed to grow, may yield 3,000 seeds and if liarvested with the lespedeza will make the legume dangerous to use. Under the State seed law, dodder is classed as a noxious weed. The surest way to light this parasite is to plant only lespede za seed known to be free from dodder, said E. C. Blair, exten sion agronomist. This means that growers should not harvest seed from fields that are heavily in fested with dodder. Where infestations of dodder and other weeds are heavy, Blair advises that tho crop be mowed, raked up. and burned. The blade of the mowing machine should be set so as to leave a four or five inch stubble, or higher if possible. If this is done at once, the lespedeza will continue grow ing and produce more seeds, but most of the dodder will be gone. .i^lthough dodder starts from a seed, it soon attaches tentacle like vines to other plants, and thereafter it lives the life of a true parasite, feeding on lespe deza or other ulants and draw ing some of its nourishment from the air. The Paie yellow or orange colored vines are found frequent ly in North Carolina legume fields in summer.

It was the tirst defear for Fair- plains in 12 games. An ice crepm supper will be held on the baseball grounds at Boomer Saturday evening for the benefit of the team, which is comiag out this week in new uni forms.

Jtovtn oM By ABE CROSB has lately visited iDhifepe back the report that Gie peopThiiL3.^.. of .all natlona and sn»?»of one thing. That Is, that a great war is coming sometime in tbp future. Nobody puts a date to it, but all are sure it is coming some time. The evidence is the feverish military preparations which are going on all over Europe, and the efforts of European gtsvernments to -make alliances and n^otiate treaties which will tend to avert war, or to assure the nations par ticipating of help when and if war comes. All the rest of Europe is afraid of Germany. Hitler’s government has given them ample cause for alarm. If the apparent ambition of Germany to centrol all of Cen tral and Eastern Europe is rea lized an autocratic government with no regard for the rights of others and opposed in principle to all the concepts of tree nations will stand as a constant threat to world peace, In a position where It can dictate to the rest of Bur ope in matters of trade routes. International commerce and the freedom of the seas. And Ger- He who knows the most, he | as a fly on a bald head when cold who knows what sweets and vir- and rainy seasons arrive poat- tues are in the ground, the wat ers, the plants, the heavens, and how to come at these enchant ments, is the rich and royal man. Only as far as the masters of the world have called In nature to their aid, can they reach the height of their magnificence. This is the meaning of their hobby- gardons, villas. Islands, parks. paid from the Weather Bureau. I know that the drainage Is far- excellent on these hills, and that .the fertile bottoms will catch and retain what solar warmth and energy there Is. I know that my neighbors will get a little gravy along with their' bread for anoth er season anyway.' ' '■ I am glad that our house faulty personality with such, strong accessories. But sunpose they do not know better? It’s true, however, they sort of appreciate living in such pretty places and enjoy the luxur ies they have. Their concept of bounty is outuvoded, artificially. and preserves. These back their i stands on a hillside, with spacious outlook, and away from the skirt of the city. I can go ■with my hoys to the shore of our little riv er; and with one stroke of a pad dle, we leave the city politics and personalities behind. We pass In to the delicate realm of sunset and moonlight, too bright, at and people believe that laws and j times, for a spotted man to enter -ci_: organizations will protect them in their greed for idleness and over ignorance. Likewise, they take no pride end comfort over sitting down to a meal of "home products,’’ and depend on tender and poetic stars eloquent of sec ret promises. Our hill country is a place of beauty any season from Azalea time in April, Rhododendron time in June and golden-vod season in the fall. Hero are sunflecked lakes with trilling c a t-blrds perched on clustered elders. Here are foa'jiing trout streams wind ing through rough pastures; here and there bulging, blacked crags, aged by wind and changing tem peratures into fantastic turrets and huge minarets, shading from a slickened brown to a mottled gray, peer up in grim silence over border plots of Spruce and dead chestnut. These must have been admired by the followers of Dan iel Boone, who graced them with attractive Ancient names. All ^lemory Obliterated The open fields are colorful, too. tainted with luxuriant, green, native grasses, blued with wild pea-vine tangles. Rosy-toned with spreading clumps of sorrel. In early June, if you will traverse this country, your eyes will hard- Iv keep the road from the attrac tiveness of either side. The tempered light of our roads is like a perpetual morn ing. They will be stimulated and heroic. The ancient reported spells of these r-laces creep upon you. The stems of pine. Spruce, and oaks, almost gleam like iron on the excited eye. These Incom- munitahle trees begin to persuade you to live with them and quit your life of “running away.” Here no history, or church, or state, is interpolated on the divine sky and the immortal year. How easily we might walk on ward Into the opening landscape. Absorbed by new pictures; by thoughts fast succeeding each other, until by degrees the recol lection of home was ^crowded out of the mind.'All memory obliter ated by the tyVanny of the pres ent, and we were led in triumph to the end. ■We should never part with these. The mind loves its old home: as water to our thirst, so is these rocks, the ground, to our eyes, and hands, and feet. This is firm water: this is cold flames: what health! What affinity! Ever an old friend, ever like a dear friend and brother, when you chat effectedly with strangers, comes in your honest face, and takes a grave liberty with you, and shames you out of all non sense. Cheerful As A Fig Far he from me to argue for the return of a primitive and un economic situation. I am certain ■that the possession of a simple home In a meager land means more to Mother and me than the luxuries accepted as commonplace justice, by masses of folks, today. Living our kiwi of life surely stocks up a fund of. patience, tfty- Conaeeneatly, I leel ■■■ . . without novitiate and probation. While there I am taught the poor ness of our Inventions, the ugle- ness of cities and palaces. ■ These enchantments are medi cinal. They sober and heal men. They are plain pleasures, kindly and native to sojourners. They can come to their own, and make friends with nature, which the ambitious clatter of some schools might persuade you to despise. Yet, taking all these to he signs of a better day, a broader life, and a surer hope, “Self- kindled every atom glows, and hints the future which It owes.” to ttr only ich'onn FMi- ued of My uaMOd TO* this BiaUnce tp ngKra>Bion or ponetra- tloff by BiiR>p«a.'n poweVs.'* ' We kept out of the Leaguo of Natrona, whieh has denonatmtod ItS/JutlHty as an agency for the preaervatlon of peace.

It would be this country’s job to do most of the ‘‘policing’’ on behalf of the smaller nations as well as our own. If autocracy Is victorious In the coming Elur- opean conflict. It Is as certain as anything'"in the future «an be that the victors ■will try to take over as much of America, as they can. That Is why I am for a navy big enough to protect both coasts.

Punish Employer Failing To Report Raleigh, June 25.—"Any em ploying unit or any officer or agent of an employing unit— who willfully falls or refuses—to furnish any report required here under—shall be punished by a fine of not less than $20 nor more than $200. or by Imprison ment for not longer than sixty days, or by both such fine and Im prisonment,” says Section 16 (b) of the North Carolina Unemploy ment Compensation Act. "This provision is to be rigid ly enforced against employers who have failed to make the quarterly reports due on the wag es earned in each of the four quarters of last year, even If we have to invoke the full penalty provided by law.” said Chairman C. G. Powell, of the Unemploy ment Compensation Commission. “Many unemployed workers are now being deprived of their weekly unemployment benefits because covered employers failed to report these earnings, as re quired, by the end of the month following the quarter for which the report is due,’’ said Chairman Powell.

England Is preparing for war on, a gigantic scale, and at the same time making friends of potential enemies. The British government has Just Increased taxes to the highest rates since the World War. Itjias announced the purchase of enough foodstuffs fsom abroad to enable the natlpn to live for months If supplies should be cut off my war. It has perfected a plan of rationing food in case of war, England has made a new alli ance with France, whereby an im mense volume of war supplies) bought by Engl-rnd, will be stored In France, where they will be ready when the war starts. When that comes, British and French armies, navies and air forces will act as one unit from the begin ning of hostilities. A French gen eral will command the land.folc- es, the British will operate the combined air forces and a British Admiral will command the joint i navies. England has cleared the decks by reaching an agreement with Italy, and making a new treaty with Eire—the new name of the Irish Free State—which will keep those two possible enemies off England’s neck when fighting be gins. And^t is building war-ves sels at a greater rate than ever, buying war-planes in this country, and laying up a stock of gas masks enough to equip every In habitant in case of an air raid by Germany. ♦ • • PRANCE Impregnable Like the English, the French are an Intensely practical people. Their politics are beyond the understanding of foreigners, but beneath the apparently Irration al air of excitement in which their public affairs are conducted, there is pn underlying strain of realism which dominate alt the French people. The practical-minded French joined the League of Nations at its inception, hut at the same time enlarged their standing army, tightened their require ments of universal military serv ice and constructed the “Maginot Line.!’ The entire length of the border between Prance and Ger many is a row of fortifications and concealed artillery, connected by underground galleries. 11 would be practically impossible for an enemy to break through this line. An army of millions of men! can he massed under cover within its walls and tunnels. And every Frenchman is a trained soldier. * • • ITAIjY ambitions Italy is the least predictable of all the great Powers of Europe^ The “Rome-Berlin Axis” is a' loose agreement between Hitler and Mussolini to act in concert where the Interests of both na tions are concerned. The* lately- negotiated accord between Lon don and Roirfe has‘allayed the friction between England and Italy. England recognizes Italian sovereignty In HJthlopla and Italy agrees to keep Its hands off Egypt and not to interfere with British access to the Suez Canal. Biit where Italy liirhUld stand In eial.

YagosLavia when ho'goto tiBlsM be; plays ball many: j-.» ■*' • ■': mti tbe Batlena of The flavor, tenderness, and freshness of the fresh fruits and vegetables whleb are canned de termine 10 a large extent the quality of the finished product. Of the three factors mentioned, the public is. most apt to overlook the last—that of freshness. Miriv failure? In canning are due to 1 » fact that a wilted pro duct ■was used as a raw material. This factor is of particular im- porfance 1 n '-.anning non-acid vegetables such as green beans, peas, corn and lima beans. For this reason, tliese and all other vegetables should he eftnned as soon as possible after they have been gathered. It is never wis to gather the vegetables the night before for canning the following day. Although food which has been gathered and held over for several hours may not spoil,, the flavor and quality will be mater ially damaged. The slogan which should he adopted by all house wives is— .“An Hour From the Garden To -’rKe'Can.” If this slogan were fol lowed as closely as possible, there would be fewer failures In the canning of non-acid vegetables and all canned foods would have a finer flavor and texture. String Beans To can string beans select those that are young and tender r.nd which have few _ strings. The Green Pod Stringless la a good variety. If the beans are gather ed when young and tender, and the strings removed, a good pro duct results. Wash thoroughly and cut into uniform pieces. Cover with boil ing water and simmer for 5 min utes. Pack hot into containers. Cover with hot water and add 1 teaspoonf’.il salt to each quart. Process immediately. Beans should he canned the day they are gathered. Processing of green beans: Steam pressure cooker — Quart jars, 10 pounds pressure for 40 minutes; pint jars, 10 pounds pressure for 35 minutes; No. 2 tin cans, 10 pounds pressure for 30 minutes; No. 3 tin cans, 10 pounds pressure for 35 minutes. The steam pressure cooker is recommended for the processing of green beans. However if a steam pressure cooker is not available, a hot water bath may be used. Cover the jars with wat er and count the time for the be ginning of a rolling boll. Young tender beans may be processed for 1 hour and 30 min utes. If older beans are used, process for.3 hours. • Raleigb, June 16.—.^utpmdbUe accidents In North Carolina last month killed 68 persons, s ndw low record for May, Revenue Commissioner A. J. Maxwell re ported today. May’s total compared with 87 for the same month last year and brought the number of fatalities so far in 1938 to 314, the lowest for the first five months of any year since 1932. j Through May,. 1937, 395 per sons had been killed- in wrecks. Sixty-nine lost their li-ves in ac cidents during April. More Cars Running The highway safety division ex pressed pleasure over the drop In fatalities, pointing out that there are over 15,000 more motor ve hicles In the state now than at the same time la^ year.
