FRANKLIN, N. C Sending Package? To Those Oversea* "Why do soldiers overseas fre quently experience difticulty iri the receipt of the r mall when they are hospitalized? is a question frequently asked of Army Postal Service. Lt Col Hartley B. Dean. Headquarters, Fourth Service Command Postal Officer an swers this question by explain ing "Wounded and sick soldiers are moved to the rear through a series of hospitals in order that proper treatment and quarters may be provided. This means that any mall addressed to the outfit with which the soldier was serving before be coming a casualty, must have the address changed and be forwarded, perhaps several times, before it catches up with the addressee. Until such time as one address can be estab lished so that it may be fur nished to correspondents at home, there will be delay in de livery of the mail. "Army Postal Service is con stantly trying to provide the best possible mail service for our troops overseas, and there Is a system now being placed in effect whereby the emergency addressee of a soldier serious y 111 or wounded is immediately notified by a member of the hospital staff of this new ad dress. This will abolish some of the delay experienced by battle casualties in obtaining mail. "Another question which comes up often," continued Col. Dean " is Why do parcels re quire so much more time than letters for delivery overseas? The reason for this is that oe cause of limited cargo space on planes, packages have to be shipped on surface vessels. These ships are en route to their destinations from two weeks to as long as three months, depending upon the number of ocean miles they must travel."

This acre will produce three times as much feed as the same acre planted to corn alone.

Livestock specialists at State College insist that grazing crops for hogs furnish the cheapest feed obtainable and that hogs in Eastern Carolina can be grazed for about 10 to 11 months in the year.
