Fottie of 1940: Trying to predict

The only way to get anything done
is to start doing it.
:
An expert is sn individual willing
to venture an opinion.
?
Going to church is a good habit,
even if we are the ones to say so.
It is up to the fault-finder to pro
pose a remedy for the ilia he discov
ers.
What has become of all those peo
ple who were worrying about techno
cracy?
The plague of columnists is sweep
ing over the nation like the locusts of
old.
The way to get publicity is to seek
it and insist upon it; there is no other
way!
When people fight over religion
it is a good sign that there isn't much
of.it
1940 is only one-third gone but
most of the year's resolutions are 100
per cent gone.
Adults who expect children to ex
ercise their caution are as foolish as
their children.
This newspaper, like all others,
makes some mistakes; how do you
manage to avoid them?
Parmville will be a better place to
live in when you become a better
neighbor.
Nearly every reader knows a sub
ject that the editor should discuss;
well, tell us about it.
Almost everybody plans to do
some kindness, sooner or later, but
most of us die sooner.
The average individual thinks his
problems could be easily solved if his
income increased enough.
The late spring has nipped many
budding poets in the bud, where
they ought to be nipped.
Nearly every American thinks he
is a writer except the man and wo
man who have to make their living
writing.
A PREDICTION
Predictions are interesting to the
public if dangerous to the prophet
Col. Frank Knox, editor oiV the
Chicago Daily Mail, predicts that
every nation in Europe will be in the
war by May 23rd.
This is a statement that yon can
check np. It won't be long before
we will know just how to rank the
Chicago editor as a sooth-sayer.
TANKS AND GUNS
FOR SALE
The army's latest tanks, guns and
weapons are available for export,
says Secretary of War Hairy H.
Wooding, if substantial orders are
given American plants.
The idea is that foreign orders will
assist our armament industries to
expand. This will make them ready
to provide greater quantities of
equipmeid. for the United Skates upon
? need arising.
Tim is nothing wrong with the
. idea behind this policy. If the Uni
ted States should happen to need
1,000 heavy tanks it would take in
; dustry some time to make than.-' If
! production is speedd- up by war or
ders then American industry will be
ready to supply American needs much
fast*. This strengthens our natton

Lamb Shipping Season
In State Starts Soon'
It's almost time tx> start shipping
spring lambs, and L. I. Case, Exten
sion animal husbandman of N. C.
State College, says that the next
few weeks will be the period when
the wise farmer increases his income
by fattening and finishing his lambs
well. He will do it with an adequate
and balanced feed program.
"Of first importance in feeding
lambs," Case says, "1b milk and
plenty of it See that the ewes are
fed for milk production. A bounti
ful supply of green winter cover
crops, preferably crimson clover, sup
plemented by a mixture of corn and
oats should take care of this.
"Creep feeding the lambs usually
pays well. Partition off a bright
corner of the barn or shed and leave
a small opening or two that will ex
clude the ewes but admit the lands. I
A good ration to use in .the creep is:
Seven parts of ground corn, two
parts of wheat bran, and one part
of either cottonseed meal or soybean
meal. In addition to the grain, a
small rack full of choice hay should
be kept where the lambs can nibble
it as they please."
Last year the State College Ex
tension Service cooperated in conduct
ing lamb pop la which netted farmers
$26,082.61 for 4,373 animals weighing
317,950 pounds. Case estimates that
these lambs brought fully one cent
per pound more through grading and
cooperative selling than they would
have brought under the usual method
of selling.
"This means," the specialist de
clared, "a total of $3,179.50 increased
returns to the produoers. Further,
It is logical that other lambs sold in
the territory where cooperative mark
eting was done brought a higher
price than they would have other
wise." ;
The lamb pools will be continued
this year. ,
