RECREATION CENTER
This week we wish to discuss an- j
otlu'i' very important project ? thai j
&. a recreation center." We have j
talked about this need for years, and I
have dene nothing about it. Our
conclusion is that we should have a '
nice building with, it possible, some j
extra grounds, for a playground.!
close in where everyone can rcacli !
it with ease, and should be located
in a mus1. desirable location ? good j
surroundings. Such building to be j
?; quip.iped with wholesome reerea- :
Hon projects, such as games, library, !
I basketball court and a large dining !
hall, and probably worthwhile proj- !
; I'CtS.
: This center should be planned to i
entertain all ages, but especially tp j
provide wholesome rocrealion tor ]
! our young people. They are the j
ones wsj older ones must turn over 1
everything to, and the future of our I
nation will rest upon this young j
generation. The least we can do is |
to give them a fair chance, and do [
ail we can lo prepare them for this
great task
In planning sue!: center, we cer
tainly should keep our returning
servicemen in mind. With around
2,000 of our boys in service, :??<! a
certain possibility of several more
entering before the war is over, the
adjustment will be a bi;; job, both
with them and ourselves. We should
try to ascertain what would make
them glad to be among us again,
o;kI try lo work towards that end.
We owe them a debt that never can
be paid.
What about dedicating a nice li- !
brarx in this proposed center to the
returning servicemen? Someone has
said, "Would it not be great to take
a book from such a library, and in j
the fly leaf write a brief history of
the boy this book is to be dedicated
to?" What about dedicating such a
center to our Watauga service men?
Why not ask the churches to join i
us to make it a place we all would
be proud of.' Such a movement
would help our churches solve their
recreation problems.
Of course, this building cannot be
built now, but there is no reason
why we can t begin to pick out a
suitable site, obtain, it, and be ready
to do something when we can build.
Such a center would be a great as -
set ?o our tourist trade too. It is
believed that a project like this
could almost be seit-supporting.
Wo wish to thank our mayor. Mr. ;
Winkler for his intercsi in these j
projects we have named. We have I
been assured of his full co-operation. !
as well as the entire city council. !

Ask your county agent or write
for the following: Circular 157, Rx

which will go a long way to answer
ing the question of whether your,

should be of interest to every
dairyman. It has space in which

a handy and invaluable record
of your operations if you use this
chart. I'll be glad to send a copy
if you will drop a line to Uncle

Personally I can get along v.-ith

but air circulating around empty
dairy utensils after they have been
cieaned and sterilized i> an impor
tant par! of your sanitation program.
With tills in mind, the exten
sion service in Alabama designed
an airing rack for dairy utensils,
which is very simple to build,
takes up a minimum of loom and
pcrmirs air to circulate freely
around inverted utensils.
The rack i? made of 1 x 2' lumber
for sides, 2x2' posts for legs, and
uses wire cloth which can be cleaned
easily and which permits the circu
lation. Should be ideal for a small
dairy farm and 1 suggest you write

Machinery has bten put away
for the winter, and I suggest you
give it a thorough going over to
locate any possible weak Npots,
to tighten and adjust alt parts
so as to Insure smooth operation
next year. Of course it should be
kept under cover when not in use,
oiled and greased to prevent rust.

\ ou no doubt know that in general
it is best to set slable manure spread
on your fields as soon as possible,
but there are certain things which
you should consider in handling of
manure in winter.
USDA Farmers' Bulletin No.
1470 says that spreading manure
on snow is not advisable, because
of washing, particularly if your
land is rolling. It may be better
to store it. Also, if the ground is
soft, hauling may make ruts in
the field and cause trouble next
sprint or summer.
It is best to store manure on high
ground so that any teachings will
run onto the field. A storage place
near to the field where it is go'mg to
be used later, will save time and
labor when it is sutead.
The milking bam should be cleaned
daily, of course, and sprinkling bam
lime or superphosphate on the floor
after milking and after the floor is
cleaned, not only helps the sanita
tion program but also adds to the
fertility of the manure.

We welcome the co-operation o{
any other orcahization toward a so
Wukm of this problem.
We wish to cppjjnond the mayor
lor his attitude toward the hog pens.
We feel if we a<( to have a city
for whic;h we wish, we should do all
wo fan to keep it clean. It is very
commendable the way the business
people are co-operating with the
mayor regarding removing the snow ;
from the sidewalks in front of their j
business. The streets were cleaned 1
immediately sifter the first snow. ,
This co-operative spirit will pay '
good dividends.
Didn't smell the rat, though. . . . |
Do Auber, the celebrated animal ;
painter, studied his patrons no less
carefully than his subjects. One day
he was observed by a friend in the
act of vigorously rubbing a i/iece of
raw meat over a rabbit in the fore
ground of a painting he had just
finishoo. Asked to explain this pe- j
culiar touch, De Auber replied:
"Mrs. Blank is coming io see this I
picture today. When she sees her
pet poodle smell that rabbit ana
gets excited about it, she will buy
it on the spot." She did buy it, too.
