SIX Historic Old Liber Longer Tol 3| Philadelphia, July 4.?Old his-1 toric Liberty bell tolled again today in commemoration of the 159th anniversary of American j independence. But gone was the shriner's old time lustre and its clear, far j reaching ringing which more J than a century and a half ago1 called early colonists to the state j house to hear official announcement that America had proclaimed her freedom. Today there were only four, dull sounds?just thuds. Using a wooden mallet, Mrs. j J. Hampton Moore, wife of Phila-, delphia's mayor, tapped the bell, j One tap was for the North, another for the South, a third for the East and a fourth for the West. The bell, cracked from crown to Up, quivered as the mallet fell?and from beneath the thuds, there came a faint ring?a week j reverberation. Old Liberty had made a noblej effort?but it was plain to see j i the bell is silenced forever except 1 to remain ever a perpetual shrine I; symbolic of American freedom 11 and independence. jl Few of the several thousand 11 persons who attended an outdoor \ service in Independence square at the rear of the old State House t were admitted to the bell ring- j s ing ceremonies. | f The indoor celebration held in C the foyer of Independence Hall, ' where the Liberty bell reposes, r was attended exclusively by May- e or Moore, his official party and f a few invited guests. IB Millions of Americans heard t the ceremony and the bell tolling, however, as the program was $ broadcast over a nation-wide s hook-up. e Today was one of the few tim- I es that Old Liberty has been p rung since it cracked in Septem- s ber, 1835, while tolling a requiem j 0 for the funeral of Chief Justice John Marshall. It was removed ii ,'rom the belfry of Independence i tl Hall soon afterward. j v Mayor Moore, who is official ii custodian of the bell, said the f: traveling days for old Liberty are over.

Heat And Flies Affect Cattle Good Farmer Should Prepare To Protect Dairy Animals From Effects Of Heat, Flies And Short Pasture The month of July brings with it a number of problems for the North Carolina dairyman and he must be prepared to protect his cows from the effects of heat, flies and short pasture. "Cows that are continually annoyed by heat and flies will not produce as much milk as those which do not suffer from these two mid-summer ailments," says ty Bell No Is Loud And Clear c? ture probably would refuse requests for the bell to be taken out of Independence Hall for exhibition purposes. While ringing of the bell featured observance of Independence Day in Philadelphia, the celebration actually began at the stroke of midnight when a newer bell in Independence hall tolled for 20 minutes, ringing out 159 times ?each peal signifying a year since America's birth.

Farmers During Year 1934 Amounted To Almost Twice As Much As Taxes Against The Property Agricultural Adjustment Administration benefit payments to tforth Carolina farmers in 1934 imounted to approximately twice is much as the taxes on farm jroperty, Dean I.

When it comes to protection from flies, the best thing to do is to rid the premises of the breeding places of these pests. The stalls and manure pit should be cleaned at least once each week and when practical it is best to haul the manure directly from the cow nam to the field each day. Certainly, no accumulation of litter >r garbage should be allowed ibout the dairy. It is impossible :o destroy all flies in the larvaestage, therefore poisons, traps ind sprays must be used.

Pastures for fattening pigs seem to allow the young animals I ito utilize their grain feed to bet-' | ter advantage after they are tak- j | en from the pasture and placed | I in the dry lot for finishing. "We have recently concluded j; an interesting test with two | j groups of pigs to be fattened for | [market," says Earl H. Hostetler, [ [ in charge of livestock research j | for the North Carolina Experi- i j ment Station. "In one group ten j j pigs were full fed in a dry lot < from the time of weaning until they reached a marketable weight ji of 225 pounds. In the other ji group, ten pigs were kept on I j pasture until they weighed 100 i [pounds and were then placed in i j the dry lot for finishing. Pigs in i the first group made their weight in 123 days while those in group two made their weight I j in 187 days. This time element isr ( ' I jwtt DV IUDA nuine, I i U.!

If the cost of preparing the pasture land and seeding is taken into consideration, the second group' of pigs gave a profit of only $2.44 above feed cost.
