Roosevelt To Continue Indefinitely CCC Work wany Benefits Sf From Program Rechner Reports Cost Of ■ CCC During 18 Months P Amounted To $443,- l 1 000,000 m Washington.—President Rofcise ■ ve!t intends to continue indefinite ly the Civilian Conservation corps I phase of his recovery program. I He made this known in a letter I to Robert Fechner, corps director, I acknowledging the latter’s enthus I ast;c report on a recent visit to 12 5 campus in ten western states. I have been greatly interested and ncouraged by the fine report from vour visits to CCC campus in many parts of the country,” Mr. Roosevelt said. ; This kind of work must go on. i believe that the nation feels that the work of these young men is so thoroughly justified and, in ad dition the benefits to the men themselves are so clear that the actual annual cost will be met; without much opposition or much complaint.’ Fechner reported to the Presi dent last week that the cost of the CCC during its eighteen months of operation had amounted to $443,- ( 000,000. Eight hundred and fifty j thousand young men, war veterans and Indians received $136,000,000 ( in wages of which $113,000,000. went to their families. The present authorized enrolled j; strength is 369,838, and enlistment! of 10,000 is now under way to fill vacancies resulting from discharges. Fechner said 10,000 were dropping I I WHEN you are suffering, you ' ™ want relief—not tomorrow— 1 not next week—but right away. ‘ DR.

J Many lines are believed to b e anxious to gobble up the lease. I _ is understood that the Norfolk . Southern can get the money to pa; the rental of $125,000 and th s taxes now long past due. The stat . is said to be quite distinclined t< make terms on the percentage basi 1 for the very good reason that rail . road bookkeeping is fearfully an< . wonderfully made. So far ns ! known there has been no formal of ! fer of the Norfolk-Southern com r pany to take the road on shares But that story comes up here fron . New Bern and Carteret. J The state would have littl t chance in such an arrangemen t with profits and losses all impinginj s upon who keeps the books. Sine t the Norfolk-Southern had the leasi c there has grown up t stronger sen s timent for the state to go in busi = ;ness itself. The issue is not so mucl socialism as salvation of what thi istate has in the road. Since the por . terminal development in Moreheac [ : community became such an im [ portant project it has been showr s to be all the more essential that thi j revenues from this railroad line bi . made as big as possible. | The state is not hurrying thai point right now. It is waiting foi Jthe best possible offer. The South } ern railway is pretty definitely ir .the bidding.

The cancelled lease is the state’: first big break since the seyera conspiracies wrecked the state’: interest in these roads. In a few days the state government expect: to have somthing very interesting on this lease situation.

By the time I had taken three bottles of Cardui. I was feeling much better. The pains had gone. I am very glad to recommend Car dui to other young women.” . . .

Diversion Motor Revenues Would Cut Federal Fund According to the rules and regu lations issued July 13, 1934, foi constructing highways and relatec projects under the provisions of thf Hayden-Cartwrights Act (H. R 8781) of 1934 and the National Industrial Recovery Act, each state Is warned in effect that if its pres ent diversions of gasoline anc motor vehicle taxes are increased it will likely lose, under additional legal requirements yet to be pro mulgated, one-third of its allot ment of Federal aid funds. These regulations were issued by the Bureau of P-ublic Works, Unit ed States Department of Agricul -_ _1 _ c_' 1 T>_J bMj.vj auu tin. i/wai u JL\JL Public Works.

I Austrian Winter Peas! Cotton Grade And Made Good Hay The Austrian winter pea has been proven by comparative tests to be one of the best plants for winter hay mixtures in this State. Peas mixed with small grains us ually produce a higher yield than vetch mixed with small grains and they also make a palatable hay, says E. C. Blair, extension agrono mist at State College. Winter hay mixtures should be sown inOctober, said, after the seed ted has be.-.i prepared by disk ing >r shallow :-'i v i .g and harrow ing, a irocess Sim la.' to the prepara tion for sowing stnah grain. The seed may be drilled in, or broad cist : nd covered wit-* a section har row. If the winter 1 jc follows a crop cf cotton or toba' "o which received as much as 5 00 pounds of fertilizer to the acre, no fertilizer need be applied to the hay field in the fall. If the hay is sown on ground that was not fertilized heavily in the spring, then 200 pounds of 16 I tier cent sunernhnsnhate an.d pounds of murate of potash should be applied to the acre. In either case, the hay should re ceive a top dressing of 75 to 100 pounds of nitrate of soda to the acre, applied between March 1 and 15, Blair recommended He suggested a good hay mix ture as follows, for each acre to be sown, two bushels of oats, one bu shel of barley, one peck of wheat, 20 pounds of Autrvn winter peas. Another mixture that will make good hay is one bushel ofg wheat, one and a hair bus' el of oats, and 20 pounds of Austrian winter peas. The nee 1 far i good winter heav crop will be unusally acute this year, Blair said, since the ordinary supply is not expected to last until I spring. The some 100,000 head of relief cattle coming into this State and the drouth conditions of the midwest have created a larger de mand for hay and forage crons in the southern States, he added. Have Fruit Garden For Greater Health Fruit gardens are essential to the health of the family, says M. E. Gardner, head of the department of horticulture at State College. The ideal garden has a few trees and plants of a number of varieties so that the ripening season will ex tend over a long period. Such ar ! rangiements, however, 1 are some j times handicapped by the difficul jty of spraying at the proper time to | protect against insects and disease. The farm family should cultiv ate fruit as carefully as vegetables and not plant a few trees here and there in out-of-the-way places and trust to chance that they will pro duce enough fruit for the family needs, Gardner warned. Apples will ripen in the follow ing order, Yellow Transparent, Red June, Bonum, Delicious, Stayman, Winesap, and Rome Beauty. Good -iri'it*r»* P-irlv Pi r Golden Jubilee, Hiley, Belle of Georgia, and Elberta. Good plums for this State are Red June, Abun dance, Burbank, and Shropshire. Grape growing has increased in North Carolina, but there is still need for more said Gardner. He re commended the bunch varieties such as Fredonia, Ontario, Bailey, Concord, Niagara, Delaware, and Catawba, or such Muscadines as thfe Scuppernong, Memory, Mish, James, and Thomas. Pecans and small fruits such as figs, dewberries, blackerries, and strawberries should also be included. The small fruits are easy to grow and make a wholesome diet. For more details about the fruits, planting, cultivation, fertilization, spraying, and pruning, Gardner said the information may be obtain ed from county agents or from his office at State College. 1 The farmers sons and daughters are said to get married earlier than city young folks. Probably aren’t so many places where they can run to. Government positions are called political "berths,” which may be because so many people lie down in them. Anyway the boys in prison can’t complain that modern life keeps them so busy they have no time to think. Things will be quiet in specula tive circles, until the American peo ple get ready to lose some more money./ Staple Reports The weekly cotton grade and staple reports for States in the Southeast show that in each State, except North Carolina, ginnings are of higher grades than for cor responding date last season. Strict Middling and better grades of White and Extra White cotton are reported as about 50 percent of ginnings to date this season in Geor gia, Alabama, Florida, and South Carolina, against 25 to 3 5 percent in these States last seasoti to same date. In North Carolina the pro portion of Strict Middling and above is about 3 5 percent this sea son against 41 percent to corres ponding date last season. > The reports indicate an improve ment in staple length for each Southeastern States except Alaba i ma. Ginnings in Alabama this e season show increased proportions of cotton shorter than 7/8 inch, s Ginnings in Georgia, Florida, North - Carolina, and South Carolina, show decreased proportions of this short s untenderable cotton (shorter than t 7/8 inch) and increased proper s’ tions of cotton 1 J/l6 inch and ■ longer. i Staple lengths 1 inch and longer - are reported as about 3 percent of : ginnings for Florida, 4 percent for - Alabama, 17 percent for Georgia, 1 48 percent for North Carolina, and - 52 percent for South Carolina.
