NO A?K LIMITATION KOIt WlltOWS WITH DKI'K.N'DKNT CHILOKHN I'N'DKK OM> ACJK A Nl? SUIIVI VOWS IN'Sl'KANCK Widows of workers who were covered by the Kederal old-age and survivors insurance program, if they have dependent' children, do not have to be 65 years old in order to set monthly benefit pay ments under the program. Stacey W. Wade, manager of the Board's Ftaleigh field office, pointed out ti?day. Mr. Wade said that Inquiries recently made at' his field office show that a number of young wi dows of Insured workers, who have dependent children under 18. have not filed applications be cause of a misunderstanding of age requirements. "The age-65 requirement ' ap plies to some types of claims, but not to those of widows with de pendent children." Mr. Wade ex plained. "Should a worker die, leaving a widow with young de pendent children, the widow's age is immaterial. She and the chil dren would be eligible for pay ments if her husband had earned wages of at least $50 in each of six calendar quarters during the 3 years before his death. "The amount a widow and her children receive will depend on the worker's average monthly wage," Mr. Wade stated.1 "This determines the benefit* to which the worker would have been en titled. The widow receives three fourths of the worker's benefit, and each child under 18 is enti tled to one-half." There are. of course, limits to what one family may receive; generally the fam ily total for a widow with 3 or more children comes to twice the worker's benefit. Attainment of age 65 is one of the requiremnts for eligibility in the case of retired workers them selves. If the wife of the retired worker U 65 or more, she too is eligible for a monthly payment, equal to one-half of her husband's old-age Insurance benefit.

K. Vat-borough, * * Comity Health Officer * ?? ?*??????* The week of April 28th to May 4th has been designated as clean up week. The following sugges tions are offered for making pre mises sanitary: WATER: Every home should have a pure water supply. The safest way to have a safe water supply is to have a bored well with a pump with a concrete cov er. and proper drainage around the well. All toilets, cow and horse lots should be located so t-hey will , not drain toward the well. The' open well with the "Old Oaken Bucket" with a rope or chain pull1 is a very potient source of con tamination of the water supply. | How would you like to have every, one, white or colored, wash t'heir hands in your drinking water. That is what occurs with an open| well and chain or rope pull. PRIVY : Another dangerous source is the open privy. Every home should have a' sanitary pri vy built according to State regu lations and located at a sufficient distance from the well and so drainage will be away from the well. I FLIK8: Flies are a fertile1 source of infection. They are fil-, thy and preferably frequent and feed on the filthiest material,! open privies, cow and horse lots, etc.. then frequently fly direct to' faces and hands of human beings aud unprotected food. Owing to their digestive tract being so sim ple aud the digestive liquids so weak, typhoid, tuberculosis or other germs eaten by them pass out in a few hours and are fre-1 queutly deposited in a liquid and invisible form on baby's face, lips and hands or on our food,! dishes and about other tfiings from which they are takeu into I he human body and become a fertile source for providing dis ease. Screens to keep out flies and mosquitoes are essential to every I home. When you have carried out these rules you will have added immeasurably to your prospects; of heatth. but* remember home is( not the only place. It visiting or sleeping at public eating and J drinkiugv places be sure the same, precautions are observed. PKKMISKS: A 1 I premises should be kept scrupulously clean. All empty* cans, broken crockery and any receptacle capable of re- ' tuiuing stagnant water should be, destroyed as mosquitoes are prone to breed in stagnant water. Mos-I quitoes, and mosquitoes alone, carry malaria to the human being. Cow lots, pig pens and horse1 stables. These places should be kept as clean as possible for they are a favorite resort for flies, who carry many diseases. RATS: The corn cribs and other habitats of rats should be made as near rat proof as possi ble. Rats breed fleas and Kndem ic Typhus Fever is carried to Miei human being by the bite of the| flea which has bitten an infected i rat. Many people are now planning their summer vacation and should be most careful as to resorts se lected. Again picnicers and camp-j ers should be sure the water they use is pure. The old swimming! hole aud practically all ponds and1 streams are polluted and those who swim must realize that in diving and other sports in t he | water it is almost impossible to keep from swallowing some, ?f-| this polluted water.

"KNEE-HIGH" CORN MAY NEED MORE POTASH IF YOU did not apply enough potash in your fertilizer when you planted corn, there is still time to add more. Successful growers use 100-200 lbs. of a nitrogen-potash side-dresser per acre at the second cultivation or W$*en the corn is about knee-high. Firing of the edges of the leaves, lodged plants, poor yields, and chaffy ears of low feed ing value result when corn cannot get the potash it needs. For every bushel of good qual ity corn, the soil and fertilizer must supply at least 1 lb. of potash. Consult your county agent or experiment station about the fertility of your soils. See your fertilizer dealer about a nitrogen-potash side-dresser for higher yields and better quality corn. You will be surprised how little the extra potash costs.
