What are you doing to Help
Win the W\r.
if you think you are saving all
that you can and that there'* nothing
elae left for you to do to help your
country win the war, you are advised
i.o read the leaflet, "Help Win the
War" that is now being :*nt out from
State Headquartcrn for War Savings
at Winston-Salem. If you "haven't
-teen your duty and done it," this lit
tle leaflet will let you know it. It
makes its message direct and per
sonal and asks questions the answers
if which you can't evade. For in
stance, it asks: *
"Do you put out all unnecessary
ughts at home and thus save coal?
"Do you keep the temperature of
your house, down to i>8 decrees which
not only saves heat but improves
health ?
"Do you .save gasoline, rubber and
skilled labor by cutting out all unnec
essary use of motor cars ? Gasoline
is a most important factor i.i winning
the war, so is rubber, and chauffeurs
are needed on Government work.
"Are you cutting down on amuse
ments? Recreation is necessary but
not the amusements that cost so much
money. So far as you can, get your
amusements more out of doors and out
of your brains and less out of your
pocket book.
"Are you foregoing personal lux
uries—things not essential to your
health or efficiency or that of your
friends?
"Are you wearing out your old
clothes and buying only that which
is necessary and will wear well ? By
so doing you will save labor and ma
terial that should be used in winning
the war.
"Are you avoiding unnecessary
travel? The Government has already
asked you to take no unnecessary
trips on the roalroad that they may
be used for war service?
"Do you produce anything? If not,
sure you are consuming as little as
possible and releasing others who can
produce, what is necessary to keep
things from getting to pieces. Don't
worry about shabbiness in war times.
Do you employ servants who might
aid you plant your War Garden or an
extra acre to help win the war? Last
i year's • gardens saved the food situa
tion.
"Are you saving ami investing your
-avings in Thrift and War Saving*
Stamp* ?
"If you refuse to do any or all those
put yourself in the same class with
I the boalthy young man who refuse*
to serve his country."

sition of seeming to unduly alarm

According to the board, no organ

such act* are attributed to maliciou
persons engaged in the bakeries and
factories affected.
"Housewives should examine breud

trucks ploughed their way along mud

Many of the trucks had American
flags fastened to their tailboards.
On other roads mile after mile of
marching Americans spin .hed through
the mud which came over their ankles.
The horses were'steaming from the
work they had to do. All the men are
working as Kurd as possible. .With
the realization that they are to be of

It might even maan much perconal

come to "pare so to be a national aa

That there may bo no rerioua priva

and not in bringing fond to ua; and
that the aurpluc produced elsewhere
may go direct to the support of our
Army and Navy, nnd theme of oar
Alliee and the needs of their, civil
population, arc the strong reason*
■purring ua to do our part. To ac
roiaplir.h thia will require careful
thought, planning and action.
In mnnei'tion with the program ach
ing fnrmer* to volunteer to do their
part in thic movement to "feed our
celves and have some to "pare," the
following nugrcftiona are made cover
ing tlx main crop and anir.iaU for the
States.
i ora.
The production of corn must, by
all means be kept up to last year, ami
increased ten or mora par cant where
possible, by increasing acreage, giv
ing lietter preparation, cultivation,
seed, ami fertilization ho an to in
crease acre yields, depending largely
on increased yields: it deal not pay to
cultivate land producing less than 'JO
bushels of com per acre. Last year
was a specially favorable corn sea
son. Extra care and- effort will be
needed this year to increase the total
production of last year. An abun
dant* of corn is es ential for huinAn
f a.d ami for live stock.
Small 'iruins (Wh'nl, Oat* and Kye.)
These crops for the sprini; ar.' al
ready out, and every means should be
followed to malte the yields n» large
as pos. ible, and to harvest the crops
in good condition and follow with peas
or xoja beans for fornge or soil im
provement.
Forage and Hay Crops.
Grnsse ami clovers, soy beans, cow
peas, velvet beans, etc., should ne
planned for to furnish a plentiful sup
ply of roughage for all ff rm and town
animuls. and some to spare for sec
tions that may be short and for the
army. The live :,tock industry can
not be developed without an abun
dance of forage.
Peanuts and Soy Beans.
Soy beans and peanuts should be
grown on larger acreages than hereto
fore because of their great value as
human and stock foods and sources
of urgently needed vegetable oils. The
acreage of soy beans particularly
should be increased ten to twenty per
cent.
Cow pea.-* should be grown in at
lest usual acreages for the dried peas
for human food, or hay for live stock
or for soil improvement.
The great value of this crop for
soil improvement and live stock justi
fies a largely extended r.creagc over
previous years. It can be planted rnd
cultivated with very little additional
labor.
■Mir* num.
The sorghum crop should be largely
increased by the planting of small
areas on many farms, for producing
syrup for the family and for those
who cannot grow or have syrup made,
and for the people In the towns. The
scarcity of sugar and other sweets
will make this urgent and profitable.
Sorghum is also a productive and val
uable forage for stock.
Sweet Potatoes.
Sweet potatoes should be grown in
as large quantity as possible and
plans made in advance for storing so
as to keep with as little loss from
rotting as possible. Storage houses
can be built for this purpose at little
coat.
A home garden for not only every
'arm, but for every town family, with
plenty of vegetables during the grow
ing season and to be put up to meet
'he nrods for tht entire year should be
nrovided. _
The orchard should be handled to
the Unit for fruit for the family, lor

Notice to
Timber Men
We have orders for 20.000 No. 1. cross ties from
White Oak. Post, and Chestnut oak, standard specifica
tions of 7"X8"X8 feet and 6 inches long, when sawed and
7"X7" hewed, same length as sawed.
We also have order for 5,000 No. 2 cross ties, to be
any size under the above sizes, down to 6"X7" and length
to be the same as for No. ones, also to be from above
kinds of oak timber.
Almost all timber haulers already know the speci
fication and we mention this for those who will be getting
out timber this year who have not made ties before.
Also all this timber must be sound, all knots smoothed
off with the tie and all bark peeled off when either sawed
or hewed.
A great many haulers lose their grade by measuring
with their axe handles and we would ask that you cut a
pole exactly eight and one half feet long and make all
ties according to this length, and notch it for 7 inches to
get face and thickness.
At this time we also wish to thank the hundreds of
people who sold their timber to us last year and beg to
assure them of the same fair and courteous treatment for
the coming season.
The price, effective February 1st is 60 cents each for
No. 1 ties and 50 cents for second class.
For Red Oak. Spanish Oak, and all other kinds of
oak (except the above mentioned kinda,) also Hickory
and Ash we will pay 50 cents for No. l's, and 40 cents for
No. 2's, same specifications as above.
