The l id method of burning brush and wood on tobacco plant beds de stroys large numbers of weed and grass seeds and helps to reduce soil b rn diseases, say State College Ex tension agronomists. They also suggest that the placing of beds on virgin soil will elimate to a large degree the danger of diseases being carried over and reduce the la borof mand picking the bed for weeds and grass next spring when extra labor will be hard to obtain. In locating new beds, they advise a loamy type of of soil with a high content of organic matter, the bed to have a southern exposure where it will get as much sunlight as pos sible. It is better to have several small beds rather than one or two large ones, especially from a disease ular foods in a mere appetizing way; the use of new recipes; and the sav ing of outer leaves of vegetables for stews and soups. control s! mclyoint.

The soil should be disked r.n'l plowed to iK'e:th of four or five iii ches, thoroughly pulverizing it. A good raki'.tg of the bed will take out all undciayed mate! ials and rcm-vc any lurps or clods which may be present. Alter the fertilizer is applied even ly over the bed, it shoulj be worked into the first three or lour inches of the soil. The agronomists suggest that cne level tablespoonful of seed be plant ed to 100 square yards of bed. Where too many seed are planted and thick tands are obtained, the plants grow slender and are more susceptible to disease. Alter the seed are sown, the bed should be packed lightly and even ly over its entire surface, as this helps to give a better germination of seed. Be sure that the bed is well drained,, well boxed in, and has a good cover. O If Liberty Is worth fighting for, it's worth paying for Boy More War Bonds. State College Hints For Farm Homemakers (By Ruth Current of State College) Don't throw away those chicken feet! There's plenty of good flav or in the bones. Scald the feet for a few minutes and then peel off the scaly yellow skin. Next, simmer the feet in a suacepan, for added rich ness in chicken gravy, soup, or with chicken and noodles. The broth can also be substituted for part of the milk in making white sauce for creaming leftover chicken. Fat is so precious in these days of rationing that every drop should be used to the best advantage. Hens generally have a large amount of fat. This fat, after being rendered, is de licious when used in the same quant ity as any other fat. Scrambled eggs can be turned into a hearty low-point main dish by ad ding to them leftover meats such as chicken, bacon, hamburger, cr scraps of a roast. Tuna or salmon, whether leftovers or not, can be added alo. Cooked, chopped green peppers, can ned tomatoes, and a tablespoon of cream or top milk for each egg used, stretches eggs farther and gives a smoother "scramble." There is no need to waste even crumbs of bread. Save all crusts or pieces which are left in the box. Then when the stove oven is cooling after use, place the bread scraps on a flat cookie sheet or tin and allow them to dry in the slightly heated oven. When crisp, crush the bread with a rolling pin or put it through a food chopper. Store the crumbs in a metal or glass jar until needed.

How can I find out ab' ut what ! foods are most needed in the war ef fort and which are best for me to I grow? A. State College Extension ofi'i 1 cials suggest that you see your county agent, a member of the Agricultural i Workers Council,. a representative of the War Board, or the neighborhood i leader in your community. "Food Fights For Freedom" drives are now being held in all parts of North Caro ! Una, war crop goals are being dis- cussed, and 1944 cropping plans are being made.

Parrish, in charge of : Poultry Extension at State College j suggests that best results are obtain 1 ed from eggs that run about 24 ounces per dozen. He also suggests that you pay particular attention in get ting well formed eggs, of good shell texture, and of the color which is proper for the breed you are growing. Eggs which are small, round, short, or thin-shelled should not be saved for hatching. During the cold weat her they should be carefully stored to prevent chilling. Q. How can I prevent waste of food in the home? A. State College home econom ists suggest a proper planning of meals. Purchases of food should be ! watched closely. Food should be j stored in a dry place and kept from ! freezing. Get the maximum food val i ue from all left-overs is another sug gestion. To avoid waste in prepara tion of foods, these noire economists advise cooking vegetables in skins, whenever possible; the use of small amounts of water; seasoning less pop- Stri. be rir;. . for ran "STItll'I'INC.S" !"
