County supervisors do not receive' a salary for their services, Halifax Woman Is Good Trucker "Trucking out of ^)is world" is a. phrase that could be applied to Mrs. Mary Ward Palmer of Ha'ifax, says D. J. Knight, Negro , county agent I tor the State Colege Extension Ser > , vice. ; ?' Knight hastens toadd, however, that when he uses this expression he is hot talking about Mrs. Palm er's dancing but about her ability as a grower and seller of vegetables. Mrs. Palmer received training as a vegetable grower during World War fl, and she has continued her activities along this line. In fact, says Knight, she has almost become a specialist in forcing vegetables to grow "out of season." Each year she sells hundreds of dollars worth of vegetables to stores and homes in Halifax, Weldon, and Roanoke Ra pids. . ' According to the county agent, a visit to her place about the middle of November revealed that she had nearly 200 bushels of ripe tomatoes on the vines, as well- as fresh lima beans, green peas, pepper, and sev eral varieties of salads. "My success," says Mrs. Palmer is dye to studying the market, and pro ducing and selling my products * when everything is scarce. It takes a little more work and a little more money that way, but the System |>ays," she adds. * Foods all the way from soup to ice cream may soon be made com mercially from whey, skimmilk, but termilk and other dairy by-products. tJSDA nutritionists have already made such things' as cream-style soups, tomato-whey beverages, po tato skim-milk wafers, two kinds of cake and buttermilk Ice cream.
