Raleigh, Sept 24?Goternor Broofkton yesterday threw the weight of hfc office solidly behind aa emergency naval recruiting drive scheduled to begin in tins State today and last through October 1. Ha caBad itttinfihrn to *>>? deaigna ton of that period as "North Carolina Recruiting Week" and urged "all pa triotic citizens ... to make this drive for volunteer recruits a success." " During the campaign, scheduled to be one of the moat intensive recruit ing efforts in U. S. history, the Navy wffl seek sufficient volunteers to man the two-ocean fleet now undo: constructipn. For the first time, newspaper ad vertising will be employed as an im portant part of the enlistment pro gram. Governor Broughton's statement follow*: "Starting * Wednesday, September 24, the United States Navy, through a largo advertising agency, will launch an extensive nine-week ad vertising campaign in the newspa pers of the State to seeure volunteers, to build up its manpower for the two ocean Navy which is now .leaping towards completion. "The Navy has never lacked for volunteers, but netf ships are now being launched at the rate of one every few days, months ahead of schedule. Therefore, the Navy needs to double its quota of recruits in the shortest possible time. The ships cannot wait months, or even days, for the men who are to man this first line of an impregnable American de fense. j - "The press of the State has pledged its cooperation and all patriotic citi zens are asked to cooperate to make this drive for volunteer recruits a success." The Navy offers many branches of sea, land and air service. Men may join the regular Navy as apprentice seamen for six years or may enlist in the Naval Reserve for the dura tion of the National Emergency. They are encouraged in the regular Navy to learn a trade because the majority of the Navy's personnel is composed of men trained in trades. In the reserves men may learn a trade or men already trained in some type of work may join the reserves with ratings. Unmarried men between the ages of 17 and 50 who are experienced as electricians, radiomen, carpenters, shipfitters, printers, painters, machin ists, boilermakers, welders, molders, metalsmiths, stenographers, typists, pharmacists, bulgers or cooks may be enlisted as petty reserve officers with pay ranging from $60 to $157 a month. College graduates may enlist in the midshipman reserve for training as deck or engineering officers, with commissions of ensign given at the completion of preliminary training. Graduates or men with as much as two years college education may en list in the reserves for flight train ing, which also leads to a commis sion. The complete list of reserve classes open are: V-2?Aviation mechanical work and training; V-3?Radio and other communication work and train ing; V-5?Flight training; V-6? General mechanical, Clerical of other trade work and training; and V-7? Midshipman training for reserve of ficers. Negroes are taken in the regular Navy or in V-6 of the reserves as mess attendants third class. It is always a matter of regret to us when we have to cut off a sub scriber to The Farmville Enterprise, but modern customs demand that a newspaper, if it expects to sell ad vertising, keep its subscription list paid in advance. ,22 ?

Pitt County Farm Bureau Drive To Begin Saturday The Publicity and County Steering Committee of. the Pitt County Farm Bureau announced today that the membership drive for Pitt County would begin in every township of the" county on Saturday, September 27. A meeting was held in the Agricul tural Building at Greenville on Mon day night, September 22, W. H. Wool aid, B. B. Sugg, and J. Raymond Turnage were appointed to serve on the publicity committee for the cam paign. The county steering commit tee consists of Dr. M. T. Frizzelle of j Ayden, chairman, M. 0. Speight, F. A. Elks, L. C. Venters, W. J. Smith, IG. V. Smith, W. A. Allen, and W. L Bissette> i The two committees jointly are i mailing out several thousand letters to the landlords and tenants in the county pointing out the importance of this drive to the farmers of Pitt County. The publicity committee states "That the 85 per cent parity loan which was sponsored by the American Farm Bureau has meant more money to Pitt County, perhaps than any other county in the United States. The 85 per cent Parity Loan which makes it mandatory that the Government put a floor under the i price of cotton, tobacco, corn, wheat, and rice has been passed for only one ! year and the problem facing the farm ers today is to get this legislation passed permanently." Pitt County from the beginning, due to the fact that it is the largest flue-cured producing county in the world, has assumed the leadership in tobacco legislation. Practically all legislation that has been passed rela tive to tobacco, which- has meant millions to the farmers of North Carolina, V"* been due directly to the j efforts of the farmers and business men of this county. Other counties in this section of the State are will ing to-follow our example, but as in the past, they are waiting for us to assume the leadership. The executive committee has set a goal for the county of 3,000 regular members and $2,000 in associate mem bership. W. H. Woolard and B. B. Sftgg are joint chairmen of the as sociate membership committee.

[. ? 1 . .. 1 Soybeans Satisfactory For Pigs During Early Fattening Period Each year large quantities of soy-: beans are left in the fields on North Carolina farms?unused despite their value as food for young pigs, says Ellis V. Vestal, swine specialist of the Extension Service of State Col lege. Some of the soybeans left on the land are shattered beans that are left after harvesting while others are fran beans that have been seeded as a soil improving crop. Since the pig is the only animal that can sat isfactorily salvage these beans after they jure on the ground, an experi ment was begun in 1937 to determine just how useful these wasted beans might be for fattening pigs, . the specialist reports. PrqyiouS experiments had shown that^sbft pork would result if peanuts were included in the ration of a pig that weighed more than 100 pounds. Since soybeans also produce soft pork, the 1937 experiment was plan* ned so as to start the pigs at initial weights of 40 pounds, feed them on soybeans for a gain of 45 pounds* then change them to a corn ration containing 13 percent cottonseed meal for the latter part of the finish ing period. The plan was to remove the pigs from soybeans at an average weight of 85 pounds and put them on the corn-cottonseed meal (Bet until they had attained an average slaugh ter weight of 226 pounds, Mr. Vestal continues. , From results to date, it appears that a basic ration of soybeans, either in the field or dry lot, will produce as good gains when supple mented with a mineral mixture as when fed with a protein-mineral-al falfa leaf meal mixture. A small amount of ground legume hay seems to be necessary, "however, when the pigs are kept in a dry lot TWO DEER WITH ONE BULLET Santa Rosa, Oalif.?Sally Heaney, 17, on her first hunting trip, got the season's limit?two deer, with one bullet The bullet; from her gim passed through one dear's neck and then entered the head of a forked horn buck standing nearby.
