Let's remember, at all times, that
the prime function of Farmville is
to promote family life, including the

Democracy is not assisted by care
less criticism of officials, whether

governments.
A college education is all right
provided the graduate has sense
enough to get along with less for

Gradually the conviction is spread
ing throughout the United States
that the nation may have to use
some of the tanks that it is building.
Many a male will discover, in the
month of June, that there are drafts
more serious than the selective ser

The nations that want a free world,
and expect to enjoy it, should emu

. "WE WANT PEACE r
k
The people of the United States
I wants peace.
They want peace for themselves
I and for the world, with which they
like to trade, especially when it
I comes to the selling of their own
products.
Unfortunately, for the people of
this country, the world has no peace
and it is not likely that the people
of other countries will be aUe to hoy
modi of our products when peace ar
rives, unless we sre willing to do
much to help them.
This is not possible under an isola
tionist policy and these are many
Americans who still believe that the

ignoring what is happmtng in En.

Electricity, now performing an in
farm, is finding favor among pro
trification specialist at N. C. State
College.
Farmers who have used the elec
tric hotbeds say they are better than
the old stable compost bed because
the plants grow fastafe: Ibis means
that the plants are younger when
they attain a size sufficient for
transplanting, a desirable factor in
trade farming.
Another advantage of the electric
hotbed, Jonee said, ? that the in
stallation may be made permanent
and that the temperature may be
maintained and regulated automati
cally to the needs of the particular
plants bang grown.
this feature permits the forced
growth sod early maturity of spring
vegetables suited to hotbed planting.
An electric hotbed will provide the
family table with early spring vege
tables and aid the track gardener in
meeting out-of-season competition, in
the market
As the electric hotbed s perma
nent, eonsibarable labor is saved
every year, and the installation and
operating cost compares favorably
with other sources of heat
- During the past season, many
growers with electrically-heated beds
reported securing several times more
| plants than with the old manure bed.
The fact that a great many more
! plants can be grown in a yard of the
I electric bed makes it possible for
the farmer to reduce the size of his
plant l?& Ibis means s saving in
seed, labor, and fertilizer. The cost
of operating an electric hotbed will
vary with power rates, the severity
of the weather, [he temperature of
the soil, and the construction of the
plant bed.
Housewives Begin
| Blanket Storage
The arrival of warm weather
mem* patting away those blankets
which will not be needed again until
next fall, says Miss Pauline Gordon,
extension home management and
house furnishing specialist of N. C.
State College.
A warm spring day when the sun
is shining and a light wind, blowing
is an excellent time to wash out the
soil of winter and store blankets out
of the reach of moths.
Mitt Gordon explained that the
warmth of a blanket depends upon a
soft, fluffy nap. Wool fibres are
soft, crimpy, and scaly. When a
I wool blanket is placed in warm soapy
water, the fibers become softened or
plastic. If the blanket is subjected
to hard* rubbing or wringing, the
fibers tend, not only to creep up on
each other, but to stick together.
Because of the danger of this
shrinkage and matting of the wool
when it is washed, every homemaker
should understand the rules of wash
ing blankets properly. Since wool
cannot stand too much cold or too
much heat, only lukewarm wa&pr
should be used for washing and rins
ing. The temperature of the water ]
should never be above 90 degrees F.
The second thing to remember,
Miss Gordon said, is to use soft
water and^'mild neutral soap, never
a strong laundry soap. Two table
spoonsful of borax to each tab of
water should be added if the water
needs softening. If a sediment
forms, the water should -be ?strained.
Water should be squeezed, not
twisted, out a blanket, If a wringer
ia used, ths blanket should be folded |
flat sad the tension on the rolls
[xsisnesd to ?*cid crushing the nan.
