Page 4 STATE COLLEGE HINTS TO FARM 1 HOME-MAKERS By RUTH CURRENT Slate Home Demonstration Agent Dry, milk can be used to good advantage in meal planning, say nutrition specialists. Use it in beverages, breads, soups, main dishes and desserts. Dry milk is easy to carry home and takes little storage space. Nonfat dry milk has all the nourishment of fresh skim milk. Whole dry milk has, in addition, the fat and the vitamin of the cream part of whole milk. Dry milk products make it easier to get more milk into family meals, especially helpful in families where children or others do not drink enough milk. One pound of milk powder and four cups of water make one quart of liquid milk. In the same proportion 1-4 of milk powder and 1 cup water make 1 cup of liquid milk. One pound packages of both nonfat dry milk and whole dry milk now are carried by grocery stores.

But lor work around the house or yard, the wise housewife will choose a skirt designed for safety, comfort and convenience A skirt which is moderately wide but not full is safest for work around the house. Skirts are somewhat shorter this year?and that is all to the good working convenience and safety. A gored skirt, the specialists suggest, may be cut wide enough around the bottom to allow for walking, or running when necessary, also for climbing and stoopirg. Yet it is fitted about the hips so that it stays in place and does not get in the way. In contrasts, a full skirt like a dirndl has a way of billowing out when you Dena over so max is may oe stepped on in going down a ladder to wash windows, or in stooping to low shelves. A tight skirt which is close around the bottom restricts steps, may catch and pull uncomfortably and unsafely, often just when the wearer is in a hurry.

Department of Agriculture's plentitful foods for January, Miss Mary Johnston, home demonstration agent for the State College Extension Service, reported this week. Winter pears are at their prime r. January, Miss Johnston said, and the apple crop, according to "igures, is 50 percent larger than n 1948 and 20 percent bigger than he average for the past 10 years. Dried beans, USDA estimates, will jet a record this year. Both dried jeans and peas, classed as excelent protein foods by USDA nutritionists, are in ample supply on Southern retail markets, the home igent said. Pick of the fruits from the standpoint of quantity will be cranberries, oranges, and dried prunes and raisins. For specialty foods, Miss Johnston suggests the plentiful tree nuts?walI COMINI i OR | GOING.

What is the general agricultural outlook for 1950: ANSWER?M. S. Williams, farrr management specialist, says thai for the country as a whole, farrr prices probably will decline aboul 10 per cent. For North Carolina, the decline may be slightless. Cost of most production items will remain high. There are little prospects for price declines in machinery and equipment, fertilizer, and other major cost items. Consequently, North Carolina farmers in general can expect lower net incomes in 1950 than in 1949, unless steps are taken to adjust to the changing price picture. The post-war rise in agi ivrunui OA yi itca iittS UVCI1 XUbt From the peak in January, 1948, farm prices in the U. S. have declined nearly 20 per cent and are now back to about the level ot July, 1946. This decline has been nuts, almonds, pecans, and filberts?as well as honey, sugarcane sirup, and molasses. Turkeys remain in the plentiful class for January, and broilers and fryers are also recommended buys for January shoppers. For still another choice in meats, Miss Johnston suggested pork and pork products, plentiful at reasonable prices, and frozen fisn. Manufactured dairy products and seasonally increasing supplies of eggs are other protein foods to be found on January markets in ample supply. Good buys in green and canned vegetables for January, she reported, will include cabbage, spinach, celery, lettuce, and canned corn. GLENN FUNERAL HOME BURIAL INSURANCE Phone 65 . . Sylva. N.

Other crops and livestock prices will no doubt be ' lower than in 1949. In 1950, the support price will determine the price of major crops and livestock and livestock products. The price of tobacco, cotton, peanuts, corn, and wheat probably will be at or near support level, assuming a normal crop year. I The present government acreage control program on cotton, peanuts, corn, and wheat seems sure to continue and probably will be expanded to include other crops. , Control of livestock production 1 may be in the picture in the next few years.
