Want Ad Section For This Week's Completed Puzzle Popular Science Article Features Spodumene Mine NEW YORK A scramble to locate and dig up the ores of the world's lightest metal, lithium, likely to be vital in making hy drogen bombs, is expected Soon to get under way and rival any gold rush in history. The United States Is rich In lithium, declares an ar ticle in the September issue of Popular Science Monthly, which points put that the metal has another military use of great po tential importance, tn a soaplike compound called lithium stearate. it has made possible the develop ment of a "wonder" grease that lubricates well at temperatures ranging all the way from 320 de grees above zero to 60 below. In this . country, lithium, light enough to float In water, is found principally in a white rock called spodumene. Large deposits of spodumene are being mined by open-pit methods at Hill City, S. D., and at Kings Mountain, N. C. There is literally a mountain of the ore available at the latter lo cation, previously the site of at tempts to mine both gold and tin. U. S. production of lithium is al ready shifting into high gear. The Defense Production Administra tion has called for 10,000,000 pounds of it a year by 1955. Immediate objectives will be to enlarge and broaden the curricu lum of the business school, the home economics department, and the music department. On the pro gram for the future will be add ed courses In physics, chemistry, and art, Including commercial art. Meeting with President P. ~L. Elliott were Dr. W. Wyan Wash burn of Boiling Springs, Dr. C. H. Harrlll of Lihcolnton, Arnold Kincald of Kings Mountain, Mrs. Paris Yelton of Shelby, and John Z. McBrayer of Mooresboro. Corn hybrids have increased yields by at least 30 per cent, or three-quarters of a billion bus hels, annually. ? * . to*. * 1 Cop' *i.f?i , ( ?. n<i?j? !?<, 1O 5?

KING5M0UNTAIN J" " '? i STORE DRUG COMPANY PMONF 4 i & 81 THE CITVS MODERN STORE LETTERS TO THE EDITOR DeairSir! ? I have no desire to get, into any kind of controversy, especially with a nevvspaper main. who. to start with, has two Strikes on you. but I must take you to task for the following part of your editorial In. the issue of August 7th, which editorial was entitled "Two Extremes.'' rThey also re membered that Senator Byrd. of Virginia, in the halls of Congress a great "don't spend" man does not practice the same policy in the. State of Virginia, controlled for years by the Byrd machine and over-loaded with -bureau.' cracy." ? Now I have been living in the State of Virginia for more than thirty-three years and except in minor affairs I do riot believe that there is a State in the Union that liyes closer to the policy "if you have not got the money to pay for it, don't buy it," and this policy counts up to a State absolutely free from debt and at the same time not burdened with taxes paying for bonds; for ex ample: last year we received a 15% refund on income taxes and we have been notified of a 9% reduction for this year.. When I first come to Virginia Senator Byrd was a State senator and from that time to this he has been steadily against buying something you did not have the money to pay for, and as a result in his recent bid for renomina tion for U. S. Senator he won by one of the largest majorities ever given any .man for any office in Virginia for ? the past thirty or forty years. And this in the face of the concentrated efforts of the "fair deal", new deal", out-of ?state interference by so-called Democrats, and the heads of the National Labor Organizations, but in all justice. I must say that the rank and file of union labor did not follow the out-of-state leaders. I have taken' very little part in polities since leaving North Carolina, but since coming to Virginia I have followed Harry Byrd politically very clos.ely, and in my humble opinion, the rea son ho has such a following is because he is an up right Ameri can citizen with no "isms" at tached and always stands for that which ho believes is beat for the State of Virginia and the United States. Sincerely trusting that you will accept what I have said in a spirit of good fellowship, and that with very best wishes to all my Kings Mountain friends, and kindest personal regards to you and yours arid especially to your mother and' father, I am Yours sincerely, Leslie McGinnis Richmond, Va. P. S. As an after-thought that so-called bureaucray you men tion; I can truthfully say that whenever Harry Byrd gives a man a pat on the back you can rest assured he -is a Christian gentleman and well prepared for the office he aspires to. Dear Editor: Please find enclosed check for subscription to the Herald, I would like fo hear from, our friends back home, it looks as if I get so little time to go back, but one never, net* too busy to re member. especially old friends; Yours very truly, Wrri.

STATE COUEGE Now that the rains have come, many gardens plants including dahlias and shrubs have broken out into rapid growth again. This is especially important for dahli as because they have not had much opportunity to make good bush growth up to the present time. That means that there will not be so many blooms developed before frost. This Is the time to give them the last application of fertilizer for the season. A large handful of a good garden fertili zer such as a b-8-6 or 5-1.0-5 around each plant should be sufficient. It should be applied about 12 inches away from the plant and acratched into the surface soil.-. From n6w until frost Is the best part of the dahlia season. With plenty of moisture, fertility, and cool nights they will make a ra pid growth. This will mean that! you will have to stake them and tie them up frequently so that storms wil not break the plants down. I How can we keep dahlia blooms from wilting after they are cut? Iri the first place, some varieties keep better than othrs. If you are interested in cut flowers, you should grow varieties that are good for that purpose. Many people advocate dipping the stem ends In hot water, or searing the stem ends with a match, but I have found that the best method is to cut the flowers early in the morning or late in Vic Vet jay* r 8UND.

In an hour or two they may be transferred to a vase for arrange ment. Add some "Bloom-life" or "Flora-life" to the water to pre vent fouling. Add more water when neended but 'o not change the water daily ns is the custbm for some kinds of flowers. Do not place dahlias In the breeze from open windows or elec tric fans. That will .wilt them very quickly. In 1950, there wore 219,510 North Carolina farms with elec tric power. In 1930 there were less than 10.000.
