PAGE TWO IF YOU NEED FARM LABOR THKN KKC.ISTKU VOl K V. "iNT * WITH STOKKS C'OrXTt ICSI KMPLOYMKNT OFFICE FAMILIES WHO MAY o T HELI'. Alts. Dolly T. Dadso'i. manager of Stokes mir.y ite-cmployment office, announces that her office now ready to regisi-jr landlord* and farmers w!n> are ill need of farm labor of any kind. Likewise, families desiring to rent a farm and unemployed farm labor are urged to register. Families who left farms for work in towns or factories and are now interested in going back to the farm are urged Mrs. Dodson said, to register and give the gov ernment a chance to help them find the kind of employment they prefer. There may be some families ap plying for farm placement who do not have enough food and cloth ing to "run" them until the crop is made. I'nder certain conditions, provision will be made to extend help to such families, she said. The re-employment office is lo cated at Walnut Cove; applicants may see T. D. Martin at Danbury. also who is with the re-employ ment office. All who are in need of this service are urged to take advantage of it.

Makes Good Record With Quality Tobacco Iligh vielJs »1' good quality to baw the result of careful and i;.uv. : :ve cultivation have l iou; iit G. E. Callihan, of Bkuiva (.'■ u:".y. .r. average of !?31i.08 an ac.v for his leaf during the past eight year.;. The averare included low fig ures resulting l'ror.i depression prices and from hail storms dam aging tiic crop one year. In 192H with tobacco bringing top prices, his yield of 1(580 pounds to the acre sold for $528.33. His lowest return was in 1931 when low prices and an unfavorable season held the receipts down to $157 an acre. In 1933 a per acre yield of 1,241 pounds sold for $217.70. Most of the crop was sold before the holi days on the border markets. The government equalization p a v ments will bring the total per acre receipts to $216.24. Although Callihan farms dark colored soil that has to be drained he keeps it in a high state of fer tility by rotating crops and by ap plying small quantities of manure and 8-3-5 fertilizer mixed accord ing to the State College formula. His rotation consists of cotton followed by rye the first year and tobacco followed by cowpeas the second. The rye and cowpeas are turned under. Callihan sows large plant beds so that he will have an abundance of strong, healthy plants. He uses the Cash variety. To keep the •f from growing too coarse and .eavy, he crowds the plants 18 inches apart in four rows. He allows the stalks to attain six feet in height before topping them, thus preventing any leaf from absorbing too much nourish ment. The result is a high yield of excellent quality. Callihan attributes his success fundamentally to the fact that he does not make tobacco his one and only crop. His farm has only 32 acres under cultivation, and a large part of that is devoted to other crops. Usually he plants 2 acres himself and allows a tenant to plant 3 acres. He has found that it pays better to cultivate properly a few acres than to see how much he can grow on larger tracts. NOTICE OF SALE OF REAL STATE. |.

Xmas m^dies THE word "candies" Is spelled In that peculiar way in the headline just to remind you of those good hard Christmas can dies that come In cnns.

BBOOKS We all know that aplnach li among the most healthful of foods and that It should appear frequently on every wisely planned menu. The fact re mains, however, that in almost every family there are those who do not "*■ ■ like it and can be persuaded to eat It only with difficulty. If at aIL Here is * suggestion for a spinach dish that is really delicious. It has been known to turn the most hardened scoffers at this wholesome vegetable into lasting spinach enthusiasts. Buttered Com Flake Spinach 1 pound spinach S tablespoons % teaspoon salt butter 1 cup corn llalces Cook the spinach in a small amount of boiling water. Drain. Add salt. Cut cr chop fine. Melt butter In a skillet end add corn flakes. Stir until each flake is veil buttered. Place spinach i;> n casserole dish, spread buttered corn flakes over tbo top, and serve. Sweets Consumption a Measure Of Civilization, Says Economist WHAT is Iho m.'.i; of a hi.:h stage c,r civil! :a:ii>n? Monty if sweet foods mm what surprisingly, the answer 'eii liy Dr. Joj:r !JT Coulter. n>: :1 oe.inoir.ist. member of tlu> I'niteil States T.'riff \.mm!.v:on. iimi now in c!iar;:e of the efforts b-'ing triad? !i\ th • varimn s;tt:ar indrs'.res to Urn# - up a ntnhlilsntlon r: il ■ de signed t .• euro the ills of their indus tries ar i increase employment. ])r. Coulter's ."n.iwer. of course, rails for elaboration He dees not mean that an individual or a people niir. lv by eating mere ruxar will necessarily become more civilized. If that were the case it would probably l,e a re '-itivcly simple matter to bring the i •>: o backward peoples up to the ptaik.' i s of the more advanced. It would i nly b? necessary to ship a lot of sugar to t' e l'apuan headhunted, and in a few years they would provide a thriving market for motor cars, radios, ami plus fours. What L>r. f'oulter does mean is that the ability to purchase sweet foods in all their man; forms is a symbol of that degree of comfort, happiness anC security which means a high stairu of civilization to the vast ma jority of people in this country —a country which has always prided it self so much upon its high standards. "It is the ability of the great mass o! the American people to possess and enjoy the little luxuries of existence which has always distinguished us from ihe rest of the world," Dr. Coul ter declares, "and that is what our present recovery program is trying to restore." "For a comparative few of us," he says, "happiness drpends on a trip to Europe upon a luxurious liner, Pa risian hats and perfumes, or member ship in an exclusive country club. For the tens of millions who make up the backbone of our citizenry, however, happiness depends upon far simpler pleasures and I know of no better symbol of them all than the ability to finish off the meal with ice cream and cake with frosting on it, to stop in at the drug store for a sundae on a hot afternoon, or to bring home a box of candy to the family at the end of the week. These are the luxu ries that practically all of our people used to be able to afford, and that. If our plans succeed, they will be able to afford again. NOTICE.

".'mcrica was largely settled by pc:>'!» who, leaving pov rty behind the'ii in Europe, sought to b' tter their lot in the new world. At first times were necessarily hard. Food was none !oo plentiful. As conditions improved a greater abundance and variety of food on the family table was one of the first marks of improvement. From the earliest settlements until the present day, our people have always celebrated their joyful anniversaries by piling the groaning board with sweets and other special delicacies. When we s?c the ability to do this restored to all our people we will know that our 'New Deal' has suc ceeded." The sugar stabilization program in which Dr. Coulter is now engaged is an endeavor to bring producers and processors of sugar into an agreement along lines that will lead to greater employment in the cane sugar re fineries along the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific Coasts, in the cane fields of Louisiana and Florida, and in the beet sugar fields and processing plants in the Middle and Far West. It is an am bitious and far-reaching program, and one that will have a far-reaching ef fect upon the welfare and purchasing power of tens of thousands of workers.
