THURSDAY, NOV. 25, 1943 r THE if FOOD V A Aff t J niCULTU.?AL EXTENSION SERVICE State College Hints To Farm Homemakers Fats must not be wasted as tliey are essential to health, furnish energy, make ciiets more satisfying, and give food better taste. Save all the drippings from meat and use them for baking, drying and seasoning. These include drippings from bacon, ham and other cured pork,roast beef, roast lamb, broiled meats and sausage. The drippings used for making gravies need not be strained. How ever, before storing drippings, strain them through a cloth. They may all be kept in the same container, except sausage drij.pings which should be saved separately for seasoning, and cover closely uel'ore storing in the re frigerator. Ui n't throw away meat trimmings. Trim the excess fat lrcai unbooked beef, lannib, and fresh and cured pork for rendering. Keep in the refrigerator until ready to render. Then chop line or g inJ and render fat irom duicreni kiP.us oi meat together or separately.

Grind or crush "c.ackhnga" (the crisp, brown pieces left after fat is rendered) and use in quick breads, es pecially corn breaas or in meat loaves and patties. O Farmers turning cattle into corn fields this fall are warned to take special precautions against losses from "corntalk disease," ays Dr. C. D. Grin nells, livestock specialist. O "Don't try to pay off all debts be fore you buy War Bonds," is a sug gestion made to farmers by agricultu rists. A nest egg of War Bonds with some debt might be better after the war than no War Bonds and no debt. AAA Committemen Will Be Elected Tuesday, Nov. 30 Meeting in a scries of community sessions, North Caroli'iif farmers soon will elect more than 9,000 community committeemen anj altcrrates wtu will represent them in operating the War Food Program and the Agricul tural Conservation Pronrain of the AAA in 1844, it vns announced today by G. T. Scott, chairman of the State AAA Committee. All community elections will be held between November 29 and De cember 4, Scott said, and county c. n ventions for the purpose of electing a County AAA Committee will be held following t'nr.l community elections in each county. "Since beginning of the national farm program t-a years ."go, the AAA has been operated on the principle that farmers themselves run the pro gram," he sai.t. "Each year farmers from every couimunity in the State elect three of their neighbors as AAA committeemen t) har.cle their farm rrogram business. They u1m elect a delegate toVr-'i'-'eSLiit the community ri selecting n c.i;vrri;tee of three lar :vcrs f o.n t'-.e eo i'ity to sen e as the C our ty AAA C.v.inisttoe for the fol-i ! ir.. year."

Among programs recently re-assigned to AAA from County USDA War Eoards are work relating to production goals, both crops and livestock; rationing and al location of farm machinery , equip ment, building supplies, and other ag ricultural materials and facilities; farm transportation; and issuance of farm livestock slaughter permits.

Quewhiffle at Ashmont school at Muscadines Need Annual Pruning No fruit plant is more frci'ie-iitly reflected in pruning than the ?.. sce iiine gra-ie, say.-; C. F. Willi m , ho" tieuiiurist at State Col! f.c. This pl. nt, of which the S.-u; I'trnong, James mi Thomas are varieties, is relilively simple to prune, if it is done every year. The time t prune, he says, is between now and New Year's. The principles of the pruning pro cess are simple, and they remain the sa re no matter how the vines arc trained. In the grape, the fruit is borne on green shoots of the present season and these shoots come from buds on the wood i f the previous sea son's growth. Thus, it is that if a vine is not pruned, the Ere ter part of this growth is at the outer parts of the vine, and the fruiting wooi of the plant gets further from the trunk and root system each year. As these growing parts of the plant become further fivm the root system, the vine loses its vigor and the old canes die until the vine itself becomes unproductive. The pruning operation is simple. Start with a ne.vly set vine, and maintain vigorous growth with fertili zer and cultivation. In the early win- j ter alter each growing season, for the First tw o or three years, select the de- sired framework, depending upon whether it is ti be supported by a; trellis or arbor, and then prune olT all the rest. Grepes require this sev: re pruning every year, he says, be. aue they not only must bear a crop of fruit each j year, i.ut also produce abundant, vi gorous r.cv shoot grow tli arnu.dly to ' bear ta.e following season's crop. ' tcrinarian with the Stale College. "Every authority knew that a de vastating wave of cholera this year could wreck cur whole pork produc tion effort," the Foundation's report says. "The bottleneck in hog chole' a control was the nation's capacity to produce serum and virus, with which to immunize the tremendously in creased pig crop, vaccination being the only kiv.wn protection against cholera. "Two factors saved us: First, the control program of the Department of Agriculture, under a marketing agreement and order by which produ cers of serum and virus are oblagted to have a May 1 reserve totaling 40 per cent of the previous year's sales much like the 'ever normal granary' plan. Second, an all-cut production eiTort which sent this year's hog chol era scri m and virus output 52 per cent above the total of two years ago. It was just as serious a production battle as that of our shipyards and mu nitions plants, and we won it, as they won theirs. "Out on the farms, the nation's ve terinarians had a equally hard task in immunizing tens of millions of pigs before cholera could strike. In many areas they worked literally day and night to get the job done. Reports show no communities where hogs died because serium and virus were not available and the nation is millions cf pounds richer in its pork reserves," Dr. Grinnells quotes the report as saying. -O THE POCKETBOOIC of KNOWLEDGE Cholera Downed By Vaccination The story of how American's farm frjnt fighters have won a nationwide ' victory over the No. 1 threat to war- time pork production, hog cholera, I was revealed in a recent report of the i American Foundation for Animal i Health, says Dr. C.
