COLLEGES CROWDED
Classhooms and domitories of col
leges all over the United States are
reported crowded beyond capacity this
fall as one of the largest groups of
college students begin their annual
work.
A survey made by the New York
Times, reveals a 3.9 cent gain over
last year but this compares with a
6 per cent gain the year before and
may indicate that the rush for higher
education is slowing down somewhat
Something like this is to be expect
ed because of the difficulties encoun
tered by college graduates in finding
profitable employment during the de
pression years. There was a day in
the United States when a college
graduate, almost ipse facto, was worth
more money to an employer than a
non-graduate, but the truth of the
statement is at least questionable to
day.
GU AKU ALrALNCTi Ci* V I
Nothing kills a town or city quicker
than a spirit of envy, regardless of
how it works. As long as the people
of a community are striving to keep
ahead of others, with no other goal
in view; then that long will the set
tlement remain a hick village, even
if it has people by the thousands.
Fortunately, Farmville i? singularly
free from and excess of mean-spirit
ed envy, the low-down spite of nar
row-minded souls. Once in a while
one runs across a petty exhibition of
disgusting selfishness, expressing its
discontent by striking a neighbor or
at home. Luckily, most of the time,
our people are broad-minded, liberal
and unselfish.
It will do us no harm, however,
as citizens of Farmville to guard
against this insidious poison that saps
community good-will. Let us be sure
that we hail the good fortune of our |
friends, that we strive for the com- !
mon betterment of our citizenship and i
that, whatever we may have, or be,
that we are not embittered by our
failure, or another's success.
AGRICULTURAL PROBLEM
SOLVED
What is the problem of agriculture
in the United States?
It is not the production of crops or
the capture of markets. Simply stat
ed it is the winning of an adequate
and fair income for the farmers of
the nation.
Whether large crops or small crops J
are best depends upon whether large
crops or small crops leave more cash
in the farmers' pockets. The standard
of living on the farm is controlled by
cash receipts, not by the sire of the
crops produced.
It may be, under some conditions,
that large crops will bring in the
most money. At other times, small
crops pay best. As an example of
the latter, the California Growers' Ex
change reports that 13 per cent less
citrus fruit this season produced 11.5
per cent greater income for the grow
ers than they received last year.
FIRES ARE HAZARD
TO COUNTRY HOMES
Cold weather brings an increase in
fire hazards to country homes, warns
David S. Weaver, head of the agri
cultural engineering department at
State College.
This is due mainly to faults in the
construction of chimneys, flues, and
other parts of the heating systems,
he continued.
Another source of danger is that
of allowing inflamable nitemls to
colleet around stoves, fireplaces, the
chimneys or flues where a carelessly
dropped match or a spark may ig
nite it 1
The use of toft brick ind poor mo
tar in an attempt to build chimneys,
inexpensively is responsible for a
great many defects that cost a farm 1
family its home, Weaver said. .
No beams or other things should
be attached to a chimney for support,
he continued, as any weight on a chim
ney is liable to poll It out of line and

floes and chimneys should be well
cleaned-frasqoeutty, and particularly
at the beginning ? at the cold weather
period when fires are kepe
to wans the home.

Qustion: Can cottonseed meal be
used to replace fishmeal and meat I
scrap in the poultry mash?
Answer: Experimental work along]
this line indicates that .cottonseed
meal cannot be used to replace all of I
the animal protein concentrates in I
the mash, but that it can be replaced
not to exceed five per cent of the!
total mash. There is a wide- varation I
in toxicity and feeding value of the !
cottonseed meals on the market and!
there is also a deficiency in minerals
as compared with meat scraps and I
fish meal. It would be unwise to
make any material change in the
mash especially if the birds are ia
lay.
Question: It is too late to seed
crimson clover, oats, vetch and Aus-1
trian Winter Peas? v
Answer: The best time for seeding
clover, vetch and Austrian winter
peas is between September 15 and
October 15 and for oats between
October 1 and November 1. The seed I
bed should be findy pulverized to a
depth of three or four inches with
very firm soil underneath. This will
help prevent freezing out of the crop.
Put in the seed with a grain drill
as this method of seeding gives a bet
ter stand than broadcasting. In seed
ing oats use an open furrow drill as
this will also prevent excessive freez
ing.
Question: What is the best me
thod for curing meat on the farm?
Answer: There are many methods
of curing meat and most of them are
simply varations of two principal
methods?the brine cure and the dry
salt cure. Common salt is the basis
of all meat curing and is used in
varying amounts in all methods. Su
gar is sometimes added to give a bet-1
ter flavor and also to counteract the
action of the salt by keeping the
muscles soft, where the salt alone
makes them hard. The recommended
formulas for both the "brine cure"
and the "dry cure" are contained in
Extension Polder No. 34 and copies
may be had free upon application to
the Agricultural Editor at State Col
lege.
RUNNING WATER IS
A HOME NECESSITY
\ 9
A home without a water system
could be worse?it might have 110
heat to keep warm in winter.
But next to heat, a good water
system is the most needed convenience
for the farm home, said Rachel Ever
ett, Johnston County home agent of
the State College extension service.
And a fairly complete water system
can be installed for less than the cost
of an electric refrigerator, she then
pointed out.
Johnston County home demonstra
tion women have taken a great in
terest in water systems lately, she
continued, and at every club meet
ing water is a subject of discussion.
"At one meeting, every woman
present said she had promised her
self she would have running water
in her home before the end of the
year," Miss Everett continued.
"We have one set of tools for cut-1
ting and fitting pipe, and we have
found a place where tools are loaned
free of charge for the purpose of
putting in water systems.
"At each meeting recently our club
women have discussed the possibilit
ies of putting in a sink and a bath
room in the hostess' home.
"We have gone over the hostess'
hmes, selected places for the bath
rooms, decided where the sink should
be put, and figured out how this
could be done.
"It has been good practice for the
club members, and it will make it
easier for them to work out water
systems plans for their own homes."

FARMVILtEDWIL?
GET THIRD VICTORY
AT WALLACE THURS.
(Jim StatterfieW)
The Farmvi lie Red Devils contuuft j
their winning streak by defeating
Wallace in a close race Thursday,
October 14. Doe to injuries received
in previous games, Captain Judy Was
able to play in only a part of the
game. He played inthe second and
fourth quarter.
Making their touchdown in the first
quarter, Wallace, was the first to /
score. Farmville tied the socre in
the second quarter when Judy scored
from the fifteen yard line on a short
end run. From then until the last
quarter both teams played mostly
defensive football. Early in the third
quarter Wallace tried several passes,
most of which were broken up or in
tercepted.
With three minutes to play Judy,
who had just come into the game
got off a long punt which was taken
on the Wallace goal line. Wallace
fumbled when tackled by Teele. The
ball fell back of the goal line. One
of Wallace's men tried to run the
ball out but was tackled by Wellons
for a safety. Wallace was given the
ball on the twenty yard line. Several
passes were tried, but they were forc
ed to punt. After Farmville ran
several plays, the game ended. Final
score: Farmville 8, Wallace 6.
Farmville will play Wendell Friday
October 22, in Farmville, and on
October 29, will play the Greenies
from Greenvilie. This is the first
time in five or six years that Farm
ville has played Greenville in Farm
ville. A parade will take place be
fore the game. Several floats will be
made by the grades in school, and
the Farmville High School Band will
play. Greenville has of course play
ed more experienced teams than has
Farmville, but Farmville in the game
she has played has showed up ex- j
ceptionally well. The game should
be an interesting one, and a large
crowd is expected.
MOUSE CAUSES FLURRY

phone conversation with his wife end
ed with her exclamation "Oh, my

with shotguns, sped to the home to
find Mrs. Segal' unconscious beside a
dangling receiver. Revived she gasped
"He's still in the house!" He may be
under the bed, or may be in a closet!
But he's still here! He ran right up
to me"?The "he" was a mouse.
