Stories Of
Sto/ces (Bounty
*J~(unters
T '
In the barber shop M Walnut
Cove is a goad place to hear
stories of the skill and prowess
&f Stokes county hunters.
While waiting for a shave or
hair cut, you may listen to mar
vrfous experiences, and the shop
doesn't charge you anything for
the entertainment.
One of the latest is this:
Kir. Luke Blackwell of Pino
HaTS relates one of Ms first hnnts.
He had 35 bullets and a new rifle.
Out In the woods lie saw a squir
rel quickly climb to the top of a
pine. Hie wind was blow»(g
stiff, and Mr. BlackwdPa fir si
shot brake the had leg of the
squirrel. The little animal clung
to the top, and aa the hunter'
fired each time the wind swaycu
the limb just enough to keep the
squirrel from receiving a vttal
shot. Finally Mr. Blackwell
loaded his gun with die butt bul
let, and this time he brought the
game to the ground. On picking
it up, he found it was entirely
cooked brown and crisp. Each
bullet grazing the body of Ui>
squlrrell had ploughed to close
that the animal was entirely
roasted. Mr. Blackwell carried
it home, ready prepared for eat
ing.

THE GERMAN NATION MUST BE
DESTROYED -PARTITION IT BETWEEN
ITS VICTIMS, ALLOWING THE JEWS A HOME
There can be no peace or security for the free
peoples of the world until the German nation is
destroyed.
We condemn Hitler. Destroy Hitler and you
have a Goering in his place; destroy Goering and
you get a Ribbentrop; destroy Ribbentrop and
iyou have a Goebbels—et cetera.
| Destroy the German nation with its ego, its
| conceit, its consuming ambition, its measureless
I hate, its blood lust.
! There are good German people. No one dis
putes this.
' But the good German people who follow would
be conquerors blindly, implicitly and willingly,
! must suffer the consequences.
Have you seen or heard of a German or pro-
German who does not admire, applaud and deify
Hitler?
Hitler is only an expression of the rapacious
character of the German people who would RULE,
land whose motto is "Deutschland über Alles."
If there are millions of Germans in America,
i all of whom applaud Hitler in his unholy ambi
tion to conquer the world (which includes Amer
ica), and hundreds of whom are today plotting
| the overthrow of this government—shall we sit
j supine?
Destroy the German nation—or else.
i Destroy it root and branch and divide it be
tween its victims and its WOULD-BE victims.
Does anyone doubt that Germany would de
stroy America but for the power of America and
England, that yet hold away its bloody hand?
Does anyone doubt that the German people are
backing Hitler and that hundreds of thousands
of Germans in America are backing him, and
even plotting this nation's downfall?
Then destroy Germany, and divide its terri
tories with Poland, Belgium, Norway, Denmark,
France, England—and the Jews.
Give Prussia to the Jews fbr a home, a home
for this persecuted race, this people who in
'agony, tears and death have felt the sting of
Germany.
Take away from Germany it proudest state—
IVussia—and let Hitler and his cohorts be dis
armed, humbled and punished for their crimes
by experiencing the hopelessness which they
have intended for others.
There is retribution in history. Did you hear
the tiger of Berlin in his speech of Tuesday, in
which he raved and ranted of his power—and
that he would conquer the world? (The world
includes the United States.)
There is retribution in history. The dying
cries of innocent men, women and children is
not unheard by the God of battles. Alexander
tried to conquer, and died like a dog while his
enemies divided his conquests. Caesar tried it,
£.nd fell with more than nine daggers in his body,
while his empire crumbled. Napoleon tried it,
and sp«it his last days on lonely Helena, a can
cer gnawing- at his vitals. William the Kaiser
tried it. His career ended as an humble wood
chopper.
Hitler and the German nation will perish from
the earth. Ever as Sodom and Gomorrah, even
as the great city of Carthage whose memory is a
mound in Africa.
i the complete power of America and th rt
r -i*h empire can atop Hitler.
JUJO /im be STOPPED. Stop him and stop hi
terrors and agony and bloodlust
- The German people back their tyrants. Let
the German people be stopped. As far back as
the Roman empire the raging hordes of Ger
(CoatiotM* QB Faft 4.) ,
State College Dairy
Specialist Coming Mon- i
| day Good News For
Farmers
F. R. Farnham, dairy special
ist, State College, will spend
Monday, December 16 in Stokes I
county.
Farmers will be advised how
to manage dairy cows for more
milk and better test. The im
portance of feeding a balanced
ration with silage and good le
gume hay will be stressed at the
meetings. Remodeling the barn
for better care and management
will also be discussed by Mr.
I
Farnham. Value of good bulls
I
will be touched on. Meetings will
be held as follows: Monday, 9:00
a. m„ Will Wood, Danbury com
munity; 11:00 a. m., Milk Sta
tion. Walnut Cove; 1:30 p. m., R.
jO. Shelton, Sandy Ridge and at
3:30 p. m., J. F. Joyce, Dillard
' community.
| Subjects for discussion at these
farms are remodeling barn for
the dairy herd trench silo, im
! proved herd sire and how to
feed the dairy cow.
Dehorning and how to do it
was demonstrated on the farm o;
A. T. St(«le last Monday after
noon. Five cows were dehorned.
It is not too late to treat peach
trees for borer control. It is
time to prune fruit trees. Let us
know if you want a demonstration
given in your orchard. Let's?
give more attention to our home
orchard next year and try spr.iy
' ing and pruning. We have bul
letins and other forms of instruc
tion free for you.
The county terracing unit is
: now working on the farm of J.
C. Handy near Sandy Ridge. The
need for erosion control is very
obvious. We all realize this fact
from sights we see along the
i roads every day.
J There is annually a loss of over
j three hundred million dollars due
jto erosion. If we are to have
'good crops we must prevent this
] erosion, and do something to im
prove our soil. One of the best
methods to improve soil and pre
| vent erosior is to plant more
! grass and legumes and keep moro
livestock to consume pasture anJ
jhay crops. We can also improve
I our soil by saving all the stable
manure and putting it on the
land.
The winter months is the most
important time of the year io
take good care of livestock n 1.
poultry, because it is d :ri sg
these few months that prices are
the highest for their products.
By good care we mean proper
j shelter with plenty of bedding
I abundance of good legum
age supplemented with a good
''owe mixture of grain, and plen
:y of clean fresh water.
