H. SmThT Tax Collector for Halifax County April May What Is Inflation? Do you have excess cash" You will answer. "No." But the fact remains that you do. For almost every wage earner these days has an Income. In checkbook or poeketbook, well above the cost of his lining, taxes, Insurance and debt re payments. You never actually “bid" against anybody for a porter house steak, but when you take the spending of all average Americans as a group, It s a different story. So It Is Im portant that excess money be saved rather than used collec tively to bid up prices. If It Is spent, instead of saved, prices soar. . . That’s Inflation. Ideally, it should be Invested In Government securities dur ing the Second War Loan. "They give their llvet . . • You lend your money." the Rosemary rolled 320 bandages.

Improver Kitehen-.Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Garner of the Garner » Cross Roads Section have within the past year built a new kitchen. I The change was made in order to get a downstairs bedroom for the small children. However, in mak ing the new kitchen was built with an eye to convenience. There are well built cabinets with wor.ii.ig surfaces across one side with the kitchen 'ink set in the cabinet un der the window. By building .he kitchen oblong in shape there is ample space yet all working spac es are close together so that ex cess walking is eliminated. Anoth er top saver is provided for in arranging for a space for every day family meals. This eliminates walking back and forth to the din ing room to serve three meals per day. Many more families could well lie working or. plans for more convenient kitchens to be built or remodeled after the war is owr. Money for these improvements could be laid away in War Cavings Bonds.

Swap-Work Plan Helps Farm Labor Shortage Swapping labor for combine ser vice in cutting small garins was developed at a recent farm labor meeting in Randolph County, says J. P. Leagans, Extension Special ist in Farm Planning at North Carolina State College. It was developed that 71! far mers had 9 combines and only two of them were planning to do cus tom work. They were all familiar with the fact that during the har vesting season for grain, other crops such bs cotton and corn would have to be worked out. The growers with the combines did not have sufficient labor to work out their row crops and run their combines at the same time. According to Leagans, a plan was worked out whereby the nei ghbors, who needed combine work agreed to go over and work out the row' crops of the combine ow’n. ers in exchange for combine ser vice on their owm grain. In this fa nu ■ wav the combine. - an > operating at full o fthe row crops on ■> ■* can be taken caie >'■ Leagans says that example of the swap" and that he is sure t minded growers " many others- Kceut.y i> ork pr< hat - 1 work the ' goi>,I gram ■tica. an pr> and children on thri gan a coopoerat . a • weeding all the ti the men did the heavy w horse plows repine ; plaws in breaking ’ could be released tm oihi Leagans poii ted swap-work program will solve the labor shortage a section by ising bor on the job '.or \m e i .. fitted and by making tub all machinery and luipai of v hi It T» man cork. the p to many a la-1 be* Applications Arc Made For 1942 AAA Farmers and i he ■ A j have: \.\A ' rat - m.l p plica small More than 10n.OO<' npi for payments tor c.iiry.ng proved production prac.e ad.iustnient measure urn; tp|:!
