PAGE 4 Short Courses Are Cancelled Word Received Here Thai War Program At StaU College Will Cause An nual Feature To Be Post poned Shortages of transportation an< labor have led to the cancellatioi of Farm and Home Week and 4-t Short Course, annual events 01 the State College summer calen dar. Housing accommodations a the college this summer will b< another problem, due to the fac that N. C. State is on a war time basis and will be used t( train 1,000 or more technologica students for emergency work. "One of the main factors ir reaching this decision," Dean I O. Schaub said "is the matter oi transportation. With the verj critical situation as regards rubber, and the rationing of gasoline which became effective May 15 the question of transportation becomes a major factor. Alreadj bus and ivil facilities are running at capacity, and quite often public utilitioc hfli-p tn ppnrel reeulai schedules in order to take care ol troop movements.

The County t-H Club encampments at Millstone, White Lake, i and Swannanoa will be carried 1 out as planned. Most of these, 1 and other county encampments 1 of farm people, will be "defense camps" and the part that rural t citizens can play in National De fense will be stressed.

MO i Tt Launch Program To Use Lettuce Food Value Of This Produce Crop Is Being Widely Recommended By Officials Local stores are now featuring exceptionally good buys on lettuce and local liomemakers are taking advantage of excellent crops this year, according to statements of Brunswick county merchants this week. * Genevieve Eakes, County Home agent said the lettuce crop is especially abundant this year and she urged local homemakers to serve as many lettuce dishes as possible. According to nutritionists of the United States Department of Agriculture, green lettuce is a good source of carotene which the j body changes into vitamin A. In j addition It has some vitamin B, I some riboflavin and some vitamin C. Beside these vitamin contributions, lettuce is a good source of J the minerals, iron and calcium. The white leaves, called bleached j lettuce, are not as good a source of these food values as are the green leaves. As far as iron and carotene are concerned, the thinner and greener the leaf, the more of these the lettuce contains. Genevieve Eak^s passed on these "tips" from the Department of agriculture about the preparation of lettuce: * ' 11 1 ? 4. "cut OUl me core or me lettuce with a sharp pointed knife. Then put the head under runring water and let water run in wf ere core has been removed. This loosens and freshens the leaves? making it easy to slip the .eaves off?each leaf, whole and unbroken?for use in preparing salads and sandwiches. "Naturally, a lettuce leaf under a salad or in a sandwich will not contribute a whole lot of food value. To get the good from lettuce eat more of it. "There are many ways to fix lettuce. It is a perfect vegetable for salad and it gets along well with almost any vegetable combination. Wilt shredded head lettuce or leaf lettuce in a heavy skillet with some well-flavored fat?and season it with vinegar and chopped onions. Or cut head lettuce up in fourths and braise it just like you do cabbage." Cape Fear Club Women Meet The Cape Fear Home Demonstration club met with Mrs. Herman Smith last Wednesday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. The meeting was caKed to order by Mrs. Henry Smith, the roll called and last month's minutes were read by the Secretary, Miss Lillian Collins.

Yellow corn was ground into meal at this meeting as a demonstration. She gave out whole wheat pamphets on how to make whole wheat bread, explaining the value of whole wheat saying we should eat more of whole wheat because of the excellent source of energy, minerals and vitamins.

The best grades are the most expensive, but from lots at the store today one can buy ware that is not as expensive and set the table with ' a choice of a pattern of the inex| pensive dinner ware, glass ware and silver ware that will look ' nice. Mrs. McRacsen gave to j members present receipts on how to make liquid yeast. She also checked in Red Cross sewing. Mrs. Thelma Harrison, recrea(tion leader, read poetry to the . club which was enjoyed very much . by all present. A new member Miss Pauline Smith joined the club, all are , glad to have her. Mrs. Smith, the hostess, served , delicious fruit salad with whipped cream topped with cherries. Vanilla .wafers were served with ' the fruit salad to the following: Mrs. Thompson McRacken, Mrs. Thelma Harrison, Mrs. Henry Smith, Miss Pauline Smith, Miss 1 Collins, Mrs. Henry Smith's 1 daughter, also Mrs. Smith's lit- 1 tie granddaughter, who is visit- 1 ing her grandmother and Little 1 Miss Katie Lee Crocker. < i STATE COLLEGE HINTS FOR FARM HOMEMAKERS < ( *?-- *> nTTnnr*Tm 1.
