THE FARMS j ! fe»LN CHOWAN COUNTY j By c w OVERMAN. Chowan County Agent j W Control Hog Choleras Hie North Carolina Swine Industry- Association formally known as the North Carolina Swine 'Pro ducers Association set up a hog cholera committee that has de veloped the following recom mendations for the control of hog cholera in North Carolina: Vaccinate pigs at six to ten weeks of age with a modified live virus. Better immunity is obtained if they are vaccinated 7-10 days after weaning. A minimum of 20 cc. of serum or the amount recommended by your veterinarian should be giv en. The vaccine and serum shoplfi be shipped and stored refrigeration. /Re-vaccinate gilts 3-8 weeks before breeding to help protect her pigs to weaning age. Re * Vaccinate sows yearly, not less than 3 weeks before breeding. This is a simple yet very ef fective method of controlling hog cholera. To be effective it must ' be followed regularly. Are Cho wan County Hog Growers will ing to follow this method and prevent the loss caused by the disease? Growers will answer this by their action. We can’t afford to take a chance.

Food Is A Bargain: Immedi ately following World War 11, the family grocery bill took just a bit over twenty-five percent of the family budget. Today, less than twenty percent of the take-home pay is spent for food, in spite of the fact that we are eating better than we have ever eaten before. Not only are we eating better, but we are get ting more convenience with our money—'more trimmed, packaged and frozen foods, which means more built-in maid service. In the meantime, the cost of services to those who prepare and market our food products has gone up and up. Wages, freight rates, fuel costs, sup plies, equipment, taxes, and ad vertising have all gone up. Al together, processing, transport ing and distributing food takes SIXTY-ONE CENTS OF OUR FOOD DOLLAR. The farmer gets thirty-nine cents, and that is 10 cents less than he .got a decade ago. Our food bill has risen fifteen percent in the past ten years, and all of the fn-" crease has been in the cost of marketing. At the same time, housing costs have risen thirty-two per cent, transportation has climbed forty-six percent, medical care costs fifty-seven percent more, and the average take-home pay has jumped a very substantial fifty-nine percent. The “real” cost of food is the amount of hours of work it takes to finance the weekly food l basket.

No Comment i I By JAMES W. DOUTHAT Assistant Vice President, Government : .Relations Division of the National I Association of Manufacturers NO COMMENT is a report of incidents on the national scale, and does not necessarily reflect NAM policy or position. Washington The govern ment’s fiscal condition can only : be described as disturbing. Spending is soaring for many welfare projects in addition to national defense. The deficit for the 1961 fiscal ' year (which ended on June 30) was a startling $3,900,000,000 — and all indications point to a much larger one for the current fiscal year. No one objects to whatever spending is actually necessary for defense—but every one has a right to insist that all possible waste in military ex penditures be eliminated. And if it is essential to in crease military spending, this ' makes it all the more impera l tive to trim non-defense expen ditures to the maximum extent | possible. 1 As Rep. Curtis (R-Mo.) said a few days ago; “In evaluating J urgent national needs the Ad-1 ministration must recognize that* the only economic progress thatj will mean anything to the! American people is progress ac-j complished within the frame work of fiscal sanity.” The accelerated rate of spend-! ing since Mr. Kennedy entered: 1 the White House is shown by* the fact that the budget submit- j ted by President Eisenhower es- i timated expenditures for thei 1961 fiscal year at $78,900,000,-1 000 whereas they actually jumped to $81,500,000,000, a gain, of $2,600,000,000. President Eisenhower estimat-j ed receipts at $79,000,000,000 — j 'whereas the actual figure was* $77,600,000,000, a drop of $1,400,-! 000,000. | There are many who think, that the Kennedy policies serv-, ed to retard business recovery and thereby diminished the amount of tax revenue. Be that as it may, the $80,000,-* 000 surplus forecast by Mr. Eis enhower turned into a $3,900,- 000,000 deficit under Mr. Ken-* nedy. The speed with which the deficit mounted is shown by the fact that on March 28—less than four months before the final fig-, ures were announced —the Ken-, nedy Administration had fore-* cast a $2,200,000,000 deficit, and* on June 20—exactly one month j before the final announcement—j Secretary of the Treasury Dillon! had predicted that the deficit “will approach $3,000,000,000.” As for the present fiscal year, the official forecast before Mr. Kennedy’s defense recommenda-| tions. to Congress called for a $3,700,000,000 deficit. But there was no doubt, even before Mr. Kennedy’s new rec ommendations, that the deficit would be considerably hi,ghei unless the voters waged a de termined campaign against un necessary spending. Sen. Byrd (D-Va.), a leading economy advocate for many years, told the Senate recently: “Existing federal spending pro grams, along with those curt rently under consideration would* increase federal spending to more than $100,000,000,000 a year* within the foreseeable future.” Quite Right An old lady was sending a Bible to a friend overseas. Ex amining the package carefully, the postal clerk inquired if it contained anything breakable. “Only the Ten Command ments,” was the reply.
