What may be life giving streams 'o great parts of our land are de vastating torrents to other sec tions. Flood control is a vital sub ject to those who dwell in the low lands through which the rivers course. Tine government engineers hay made great stride in averting damage of flood. They have built great walls to wall off the livers; they have reforested great tracts of land to absorb the excess water they have built great dams to hold lack the torrents and to control Ida- r flow into other yin as so they may make fertile great wast ed.' All this is mest essential - hut even more necessary today is a system of hate control. A- the fortunes of war wage and wan x and as grief and less touch us j more and more closely, there j : growing in this land of our- in creasing hatred and Interne .-s. J Shall we let this flood warp ami I destroy much of wheat we hold , dear'/' We need to build walls of un derstanding to hold the hatreds lout.” For mutual understanding leads to mutual trust and in mist: there is no hate. We need to reforest the seavvci places in our minds - scars caused: by hared, litterness - lai d intolerance - to reforest them with understanding, compassion, friend liness and love. We need to dam back the f'oodsj of hate with bulwarks of educa tion - education in positive dem ocratic living, in putting into N Theatre I PRC RAM WEEK OF MAY 3rd., 1942 Sunday-Monday Wallace Beery-Marjorie Main in nuS MEWS AND ACT Tuesday - Wednesday Grade Allen - William Post, Jr. Mr. And firs.

We need to divert the stream of hate into useful channels, concen trating it on an ideology, not on peoples or races - hating only the evil act or quality. Our hatred must run between such concreate walls of our wills, that we will not be guilty of either injustice ■: intolerance to any member of any group merely because of his race or creed or color, no more than we would want him to he* guilty if these towards us. Thus and only thus can we control tha flood water- of hate. State College Hints Farm Housewives in IU III CUKKFNT State Home Demonstration \genl Hi- sure to get rotenone or some good insecticide to ! ifillt bean ! .•.■iles. Don't let them eaten us! What can you do to help A moiiea win the war? Here are some suggestions. Fatten more pigs; grow more tomatoes; produce more poultry and eggs; grow more yellow soy beans; plant better home gardens; keep some bees; plant some cane seed; and improve the soil. Don't complain about the sugar -Itortage. Put in a crop ol’ moiass < or get yourself a colony of bees. Don’t worry. If you can’t do anything about the problem, .'ur ge t it. If you can. then get busy. Don’t lie too critical of every thing. Do the best you can, do the most you can, and lend a helping hand wherever you can. It is very important to select good quality, comfortable shoes because you will be riding less and walking more. Good quality ' other that will give good ser \ ice and lower heels in women’s n.iy time shoes, novelties for dress. Brush and polish your shoes re gularly. Use shoe trees to keep your shoes in shape. Have heels straightened and sole.- repaired. Avoid sueffing. Care In Milking Means Full Pails Along with other thinps, vood milking is a factor not. to be ov erlooked by North Carolina davy men in attaining their l‘.M2 milk goal, explains John A. Artsy, Ex tension dairy specialist ol X. C. State College. For instance he says, many low herd averages and individual cow records can lie attributed to vnio lo--:, inefficient milking. The dairy , o whas a sensitive, nervous sys tem which reacts quickly to ad verse condition- such as irregulai milking, rough handling, slow in complete milking and sudden chan ge- of almost any kind. A practical application of the following rules will result in a substantial increase in the HU2 milk production in this State. Milking at the same hour with very few minutes variation is of vital importance for lull and ' timpleto production. The order of milking rows in the barn should be mapped out carefully. Cows that "let their milk down” first should be milke 1 first. When the milking is begun, it must progress rapidly to comph lion. Four to not more than sev en minutes can be occupied in the milking process. Slow milking suits in decreased production. When the milking is completed or if the cow stops secreting, it is time to stop milking. Too much snipping or prolonged manipu nation develops “stripper*.” The temperament of the milker I and the handler of the cows is im I portant. Fear, suspicion, and ex citement should not be aroused. Nothing should appear in the barn before or during milking to detract the cow's attention. Rough milking should be avoided. It is of vitiil importance * hat nothing be done that xtitnalal.es milk “let down” an- cnnsiderabU time in advance of inTlking. i I STATE COLLEGE ANSWERS TIMELY FAR.' 1 QUESTIONS QUESTION—I have heard that } rotenone dust will be scarce this I year. W hat inilormatiun do you I have about this? ANSWER--The War Product! n j Board has issued an order prshi ■ biting the use of rotenone or pro [ duets containing rotenone (except those already prepared) for treat ing cotton, tobacco, cranberries, eggplant, onions, peppers, sweet corn, and such crops as c.i, um bers, melons, squash and pump kins. The use of rotenone in horn e hold insecticides is also "prohi bited. Imports of rotenone from Malaya and the Netherlands Fast hides have been cat off and Latin American sources are not expect ed to supply this country in suf ficient quantities to overcome tins loss. Substitutes, such as pyreth I'Uiii and nocitine sulphate, are re commended. QUESTIOX--Can you tell me of an inexpensive way of destroying ; honeysuckle ? i ANSWER—E. C. Blair, Exten sion agronomist, says burning the vines off during winter will rid ditehbanks of this plant for a year or two. Although somewhat green, the vines will burn. Com mercial weed killers will also de stroy honeysuckers, but may prove expensive. If ditch banks were leveled off and cleaned so that they could ho mowed, this would tend to keep not only hon eysuckle, but other weeds and bushes under control. QUESTION- How can 1 control plant lice? ANSWER—Use nicotine sul phate nt the rate of 1 1-2 teas poonfuls to a gallon of water. A satisfactory home made tobacco spray can l> p: pared by soaking a pound of tohar o stem* or 1- liv es in a gallon - f water for 21 LITTLETON, N. C. Week of May 4th.

Soda Shortage Turns Farmers To Legumes Nitrate of 'Oila. vital t-o North Coralina farmer* but oven hui.iv vital to United States in tlu ! manufacture of munitions, may lie replaced to some extent by tin j growing of more winter legumes, say- E. ('. Blair, Extension agro nomist of X. ('. State Cullegi'. Nitrate of soda i.~ scarce this ! year and lias been placed on the mil ion list by t he \\ nr I’roduct inn Board. Next year, Blaii said, far mers may expect to find an even smaller supply of this crop food. At a recent series of winter le gume field meetings, the State College agronomist explained to those present that legumes must be allowed to make a heavy grow Ith if they are to be of value to | the soil. Such a growth is equiva lent to approximately 250 pounds of nitrate of soda an acre. The nitrogen addej] to the soil is in direst proportion to the a niount of growth turned under. This is contrary to a widespread yelief, Blair pointed out. that le gumes store up nitrogen in the root-nodules formed by the nitro gen gathering luctoeria. It has been shown that these nodules are simply the points at which the ni trogen enters the plant, to lie stor ed in its stalks and leaves. Before North Carolina farmers can derive a maximum of good from winter legumes, the practice of growing seed in this State anil preferably on the home farm must be learned. At the present time, most of such seed coin ■ from the Ear West. Blair told farmers at these field meetings that early planting is absolutely necessary for best results. _ Caffoy Urges Care In Issuing Wine License Greensboro, April 22—John W.
