■ ■ ■ ■ ■ 1%l TWO f§j|^ The Roundujp i '^S^ VlPlpm By WIIiBORNE HARRELL Here’s a drastic remedy to awaken Americans to the serL ousness of the world situation: I> is a fantasy, but were it possible to bring it about, if but for a day, a miracle would be wrought. Remove the Statue of Liberty from the New York -harbor and the Lincoln Memor ial in Washington, and all that they stand for. Abolish the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights, and repeal all laws that embody within their context all our liberties and freedoms. Haul down every American flag and abrogate all immunities and privileges that flourish and are sanctioned by its-stars and bars. And just for one day erase from each American’s life all the little personal liberties which he en joys and. takes for granted and counts as his birthright.

JES’ ATHINKIN’ Well, the summer I looked forward to last winter is about to slip away, vacation days are behind me, and I am suddenly struck by the swift passage of time. But that is the way cf life, time and tide wait for no man. The se cret of living is not to live too much in tomorrow, but make the most of today. Plan not too much on the future; for man proposes, but God disposes. These platitudes may sound a trifle corny, but if you give it a thought, it is the corny things of life that are the most satis fying and lasting.

Science Helps In Crop Estimating Red streamers are up in cot ton and corn fields all over North Carolina. They are not signs of .an invasion, but rather they mark the addition of a new kind of scientific sampling and measuring to the U. ,S. Depart-! rnent of Agriculture’s time-hon ored system of estimating crop yields and production through reports submitted by several thousand cooperating farmers in each state. This is the explana tion given by Henry L. Rasor, agricultural statistician of the United States Department of Agriculture, in charge of the North Carolina Crop and Live stock Reporting Service , The red flags mark small plots, each one about five square yards, chosen by scientific samp ling methods to represent the cotton and corn for the entire state Each plot was marked early in the growing season by an enumerator representing tha agricultural statistician, and will be examined at regular intervals during the summer and fall. On each visit the enumerator will count the number of plants, blossoms, squares or bolls of cot ton and ears of corn and note the stage of development. At harvest time he will weigh the cotton or corn from each plot,: including any that falls to the ground. Corn fields Ooson in the sample for the state were chos en by random selection from i aerial photographs. In each corn field two sample plots are chosen. The first may be locat ed anywhere from one to 200 paces from the nearest corner; the second always is 30 paces further in and 30 rows to one | side of the first plot. The 150 sample plots of cot ton and 180 of corn located on farms all over the state will in- i elude good, medium and poor fields. The sample in any one county may net be representa tive of that county, Mr. Rasor said, but the samples in all counties combine to represent accurately the cotton and corn crops in the state as a whole.
