We'd Rather Take Home Newspapers From Dr. M. M. Rosenbaum. formerly of Shallotte, now a Cap-' tain in the Medical Corps, sta- i tioned in England, we have re- j; ceived late copies of The Tiroes :; of London, long regarded as England's biggest and best newspa- i per. Along with The Times was a copy of the Daily Express, own- j <xi by vLord Bekverbrook and re^*i garded as England's most pro-1 gressive newspaper. Allowing for the several years | of war and present limitations , which must have resulted therefrom, we still feel, after reading the Daily Express and The Times of London, we'd rather take the { home newspapers, back here in the United States. The Daily Express is a sevenj column, four page paper, selling! for one penny, which would be two cents in our money. Support-1 ing" the general claims that it is j England's most progressive news-1 paper, it follows very much the | American style of news heads and make up. It boasts a sale of 2.825,138 copies. It contains a to- I tal of only a quarter of a page ( of advertising. The Times of London, on the other hand, has a fair run of advertising. If we include the fact ' that its whole front page is given over to legals and paid personal notices. If you want to read the news you have to look inside. I Both papers, as would be expected during these times, are printed on a very light and eteap t grade of paper. We haven't the least doubt that both papers are very highly regarded and interesting to the people in England, but we still cling to the personal view that we like the home newspa;oers best. SHEARS & PASTE LET'S GO TO CHURCH (Sampson Independent) There is something fascinating about turning over a new leaf, and seeing the pure white, ciean surface of a book, and there is something equally as intriguing,! about the beginning of a new i year. Among our new year's resolu- j tions this year, let us add one j to go to church every Sunday. I People who do not attend the | services of the church regularly, do not realize what they miss and how their lives are impoverished by their absence from the house of worship. The churches are not filled these Sundays, especially if the weather is inclement, and the life of the community is impoveriah? ed, too, by the failure of many to J attend church services.

Buy Hybrid Seed Corn On Record Not All Hybrid Seed Corn Is Suitable To This Sectin. Farmers Urged To Get Corn Circular Farmers should be very careful in their purchases of hybrid seed corn and buy only on performance lecorcs made under North Carolina conditions, said research men of the State College Experiment Station and directors of the N. C. Crop Improvement Association at a reeftit1 rrteefing at Raleigh. They pointed out that some hybrids which did well in the Mountain and Piedmont sections were I wholly unsuited for production in the Coastal Plain areas. On the other hand, a ceitain hybrid gave good yields in tie Coastal Plain and was relatively resistant to weevil damage and lodging, or wind damage, but was not suited to production in other areas. Experiment Station tests showed that the yields of some hybrids were no better, or even less, than the yields of some of the standard varieties of corn already being grovn. In other cases, certain hybrids gr.ve outstanding yields which >vere considerably above the best yields of the purebred varieties now being grown. Hybrid corns do not carry names such as "Javis" but are specified by numbers such as U. S. or N. C. 1032. A "W" following the number means that it is a white corn and a "Y" shows that it is a yellow corn. The Crop Improvement Association urges growers to consult Circular 134 before making purchases of hybrid seed corn. This publication gives the official performance records of the hybrids for 1942 and 1943. A free ennv - STJ of these results may be obtained by writing the N. C. Improvement Association, State College, Raleigh. COUNTIES HONORED WITH "A" AWARDS Haywood, Northampton, Pitt, Chatham, and Wilson counties will receive Achievement "A" Awards for outstanding excellence in agriculture in 1943, according to G. T. Scott, chairman of the USD A War Board. These counties were selected by the War Food Administration because of their splendid performance in increasing farm production. They not only met but also exceeded their Production Goals. They shifted peace-time production to meet war-time demands. They made full use of their land and labor resources. In fact, everything possible was done to cooperate in the "Food For Freedom" fight, not forgetting full support of War Bond purchases, rationing and price control measures, and cooperation in all the salvage drives. Each of these counties will receive an "A" banner from the War Food Administration to be presented by the Army in appropriate ceremonies in February. Plans are now being made for the celebration in each county and full details will be announced at a later date, according to Scott. The State College Extension Service and all other agricultural < agencies have cooperated in this work in each county, to make up 1 the activities of the County War i Board, and are all joining to- ' gether in arranging plans for the "A" Award celebration. Mot only is the county honored j, but also each farm family in the!, county. "These families are1 ( gratefully honored for services nobly rendered to our war effort ' and it is expected that they will 1 all take part in the "Award Day' ceremonies to be held in Feb- 1 ruary in connection with the pre- | sentation of the 'A' banner," 11 Scott said. SAVE JUST AS MANY ] LAMBS AS POSSIBLE It is as important to save ' lambs after they arrive as it is to make careful plans for lambing time, says Dr. John E. Foster,! in charge of research with beef ! cattle and sheep at the Agricul- ! tural Experiment Station of State j College. j j "Assuming that the ewes arejj in proper condition for lambing,: j the next step is to save as many'] of these lambs as practical, and j then grow them out satisfactor-1! ily," Foster points out. j' He suggests that the flock j j should be looked at first thing j in the morning during the lamb- i ing season, about twice during I the day. and the last thing at 11 night before retiring. It may even be necessary to spend some time during the night with the flock. For the first day after lambing, the ewe should be given only fresh water and hay. She should then be gradually put on a feed of about one and a half pounds of grain mixture per head daily and all the good legume hay she' will clean up. A green winter pasture should be provided, wherever practical. The lambs will start to graze and cat grain and hay when a few weeks old. If they are not | getting enough milk, they should J be given a grain mixture in a; creep. A mixture of two parts of | corn, two of oats, and one of j cottonseed meal is satisfactory. | 'To grow the lamb properly, it, should be fed indirectly through its mother by providing an abundant supply of milk, and di- , rectly by giving it access to green pasture, good legume hay, and a grain mixture," Foster says. Timely Hints To Home-Makers By RUTH CURRENT If candle wax dripped on the holiday tablecloth, use a dull knife, a warm iron and cleansing issues to help remove it. First scrape off as much of the hard wax as possible. Then, place the stain between cleansing tissues or paper towels, and press with a warm iron, changing the paper as it becomes soiled. Finally, sponge with a grease solvent. If color still remains, sponge with a liq uid made up of denatured alcohol and water in equal parts. * ? * One of the resolutions that American housewives may well make this new year is to put up food only by scientifically approved canning methods. Canning specialists say that for safety from spoilage, ail such non-acid foods as meats and most vegetables, except tomatoes, must be canned under pressure. Now that pressure cookers are no longer rationed, no one should be tempted to take a chance on putting up foods by risky methods of can- \ ning. ? ? Greasing the surface of the ham with lard or oil will help prevent mold on the meat. Oil or lard is especially useful for keeping mold from the cut surfaces of hams that have been sliced and then stored in the refrigerator or pantry. * ? * Is there any good way to keep dry bread crumbs so they remain dry but don't get moldy or rancid? Home economists say that bread crumbs must be dry when you store them. Dry bread crumbs keep best if air reaches them, so instead of putting them in a tight container like crackers, punch holes in the cover of the jar or tie a piece of cheese-cloth over the top. They keep best stored in this way but, even so, will not keep indefinitely. LESPEDEZA TESTS GIVE VARIED DATA Preliminary studies indicate that Kobe and Korean lespedezas yield approximately the same amount of forage under the same grazing conditions, reports Dr. R. L Loworn, in charge of forage crop investigations at the State College Experiment Station. Tests revealed that when planted together, the total yield was approximately the same as either variety alone, but Kobe contributed only one-third of the combined yields. Common and Tennessee 76 made much less growth. The yield of a mixture of Kobe with either common or Tennessee 76 was intermediate between the two. On the other hand, where Korean and common were seeded together, the result was decidely different. The combined yield was equal to the yield from a pure stand of Korean, but was made up of 90 per [cent Korean and 10 per cent THE STATE PORT PILOT, SOUTHPORT, N.
