State College Hints To Farm Homemakers Oiled dust cloths and oiled mops pick up dust well but should never be used on wax surfaces, caution home manage ment specialists. An crtled cloth used on furniture finished with wax makes the wax sticky and dingy because the oil softens It, just as an oiled mop does on a waxed floor. For dusting waxed furniture the specialists recommend eith er a clean, soft, Untless cloth or dusting mlt, or the round brush attachment of vacuum j cleaner. After dusting, rub the i furniture with the grain of the I wood to keep the surface shin- | ing. Furniture may need te-waxing once or twice a year, depend ing on how much use it gets, If paste wax is used, place a small dab of wax between several lay ers of cheesecloth and rub with a circular motion. Let dry a few minutes and then polish briskly following the grain of the wood. If liquid w*x is used, apply with a soft cloth, let dry a few min utes and then polish. Polish before the wax becomes hard. A soft thick w.ooi cloth or mlt Is excellent for polishing. Once a wax finish has be come gummy from mistaken use of an oil cloth, It Is usually necessary to remove the wax entirely and apply a new coat. Well-Drilling . . .

Deeper spouts on all utensils designed for pouring. Mixing bowls with straighter sides. Dish drainers with wires clos er together to prevent silver ware and small utensils from falhng through. Shorter and more comfortable handles for mixing spoons and wooden spoons. State College Answers Timely Farm Questions Q. Will acreage allotment and marketing quotas be put into ef fect on 1950-crop wheat? A. In a recent statement Sec retary of Agriculture Brannan said: "If the present favorable conditions for a large 1949 wheat crop continue, the de partment may be required by law to proclaim acreage allot ments and possibly marketing quotas for the 1950 crop. A final decision cannot be made until after the June crop report is available." State PMA committees and county Agricultural Conserva tion committees are now gath ering from farmers the crop acreage and production infor mation which will be needed if farm acreage allotments are re quired and marketing quotas are proclaimed. If quotas are proclaimed, approval of at least two-thirds of the growers vot ing in a referendum would be required to put them into ef fect. The total wheat supply for the 1949-50 marketing year, which starts July 1, Is at pres ent expected to be in excess of 1.6 billion bushels. Such a sup ply might be 30 to 60 million bushels above the level at which a proclamation for marketing quotas would be required by law. Q. What portion of their In come do city residents spend for food? A. About one-third, according to a survey made in the spring of 1948 by the Bureau of Hu man Nutrition and Home Eco nomics, U. S. Department of Agriculture. The food bill of the average City family was found to be $25.57 a week, or 32 per cent of the total weekly income. The study showed that a larger part of Income went tor food in Square DANCE Saturday Night Starting At 8 p. m. Slagle Memorial RYTHMIC MUSIC ? EXPERT CALLER A-l FLOOR Sponsored by FRANKLIN POST American Legion 1948 than In 1942, when com- ] parable data were gathered, in 1942, the weekly food bill of tHe J average urban family was $14.23, or 26 per cent of the total In come. The bigger post-war bills have gone partly into higher prices, partly into large purchases. Higher consumption of such foods as milk, fruits, vegetables, eggs and meat, poultry, and | fish indicate that the family's, food money bought better nutri tion in 1948 than In early war year. One North Carolina city? High Point? was included in the 1948 survey, which covered 1,600 households In all sections of the country. N. C. Motor Vehicle Registration Now - Nor Million-Mark Motor vehicle registration In North Carolina ha* reached 900,330, only M.21S below ref utation for the entire year of 1948, the North Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles has announced.

Total legislation for 1948 was 958, If present gains are maintain ed, registration is expected to break the million mark before December 1. Meanwhile, latest compilations show that new trucks and cars were brought Into the state and sold during April at the rate of 356 per day. flavorful/ Fleetwood COFFEE It's Supfltomatiud ?
