An ordinary bottle cap nailed to a piece of wood makes an emergency fish, scaler. It works so well you may aven want to make one for home. Some people eat carp. Some don’t If you’re a member of the latter group, perhaps your ob jection is the slight muddy taste sometimes attributed to this fish. Here’s the solution. Remove the back bone before cooking. This can easily be done with a pair of pliers. If you expect that some day you may fall out of your boat while fishing, read on. Wrap your wallet in a plastic bag be fore venturing forth. Thus, your money and papers will be safe and dry for your future needs— if you can swin„ that is. HUNTING Attention quail hunters! After you’ve been lucky enough to flush a covey, relax.

If you’re a shot it’ll come in handy for cutting the pelvic bone of your deer. SPORTING DOGS You need 'three things to make this tip work: a dog; a station wagon; and a Child’s play pen. When you go hunting place the dog in the pen and the pen in the car. The dog will have plenty of room to move about and all the breathing air he needs. He will not be able to' escape (unless he’s a Mexican Hairless), for the top of the pen is close to the wagon ceiling. It all makes for a perfect com bination. CAMPING Dead flashlight batteries can be recharged by campers who don’t stray too far from their cars. Remove the batteries and place the tip of one to the posi tive terminal of your car bat tey. Jump the negative terminal to the base of the flashlight bat tery using a piece of metal. Hold the flashlight battery in place until it becomes warm. The charge should last for some time.

But through the efforts of the North Carolina Cattlemen’s Association and the assesment program, the and the assessment program, the growth can be great. J.
