The ox may do the same on a vegetarian diet exclusively. But man is a very complex, highly organized being, and requires wide variety to proper ly nourish his body. He must have both animal and vegetable food, properly balanced. Meat is not the only animal food; all dairy pro ducts are animal. Fresh meats must be diminished or eaten with great care during hot months. I saw a fat old man buy ing two pounds of fresh pork saus sage the other evening for his breakfast next morning. I bought ten cents worth of chipped beef— and I am a fat old man myself! I had as lief swallow a hot flat iron on a warm morning as two or three "pats” of fresh pork sausage! Cured meats are preferable in hot weather; my reason for this belief is that the curing takes much of the nitrogenous element out of it, and leaves the lean cells, which are provided with enough blood-restor ing elements to restore energies that have been in part exhausted by the day’s toil. Meats, from the amount of combustion necessary to appro priate them to our needs, are heat producers, and fresh meats produce more heat than cured meats. It re quires more systematic outlay to digest fresh meats—more of poten tial energy; and this is not con ductive to good feeding in hot weather. A moderate portion of cured meat once a day supplies the need of the body and is much more comfortably borne. Another argument against excess of fresh meats is that the strong juices in meats—those characteris tic of the animal slaughtered—are hurtful, if not adaptable to the human body. The more of the na tive juices that are removed by curing, the better for us. AH I6N0RANT MAN in EARNEST MAKES* BETTER, SPEECH THAN , TH' 6REAT i ORATOR 1 WHO I tern.I Nation-Wide Drought Not Serious In North Carolina (By C. B. Williams, (Head Agro nomy Department North Caro lina College) The current drought, holding a large part of the nation in its grip, has not affected North Caro lina to a serious extent. However, in some sections of the State, outside of the higher eleva tions in the mountains, drought conditions have been such that be fore recent rjiins, farmers were un able to seed the proper acreages of suitable crops for hay to meet live stock needs this fall and winter. In order to secure a sufficient amount of feed for livestock as well as to have the requisite acre age of soil improving crops, the following crops are suggested for seeding during the next ten days: COWPEAS Cowpeas—This crop, seeded broadcast at the rate of 60 to 90 pounds on good land during the next ten days, may be expected to give a fairly good growth, especial ly if the remainder of the growing season is at all favorable. In seed ing use those varieties available on the farm or which may be secured quickly in the neighborhood. If the seed have to be purchased from a distance, get segd of the Brabham, Iron, Groit, Whipporwill, or Black varieties. If sown in rows, have the rows wide enough apart to permit about two cultivations, using about 30 pounds of seed per acre. If de sired, the cowpeas may be seeded with sorghum, using 45 to 50 pounds of cowpea seed and 20 to 25 pounds of sorghum seed. SOYBEANS Soybeans—If seeded shortly, soybeans should produce a good amount of excellent hay or a fairly large amount of material, which, if turned under, will materially im prove the productiveness of the soil. The seeding should be in 2 1-2 to 3 foot rows. The crop should be cultivated once or twice during its growth. Seed of the Mamouth Yellow variety, most generally grown ir the State, may be obtained easily and cheaply if home-grown or lo cal seed of some variety is not ob tainable. Soybeans should be sown in row) at the rate of 15 to 30 pounds of seed to the acre, the exact amount depending largely upon the size of the seed. SUUAIN (jKA» Sudan Grass—This grass will grow rapidly and will make a large amount of excellent quality hay within two months or less after seeding. Its growth should not be attempted except on fairly pro ductive lands where the moisture is reasonably fair to good. The seed should be put in broadcast or in 24 to 30-inch drills in well prepared land at .the rate of 20 to 30 pounds of seed per acre. This crop has considerable valfue for temporary grazing purposes. MILLET German or Golden Millet—This is the best of the millets for late summer seeding, and is particularly well adapted for seeding on moist bottomlands. It should be sown broadcast on a well-prepared finely pulverized seed-bed, using about 2 5 pounds of seed to the acre. The crop should be ready to cut for hay within 5 5 or 60 days after seed ing. FERTILIZATION In fertilizing the above crops, which should be done if possible, it is suggested that the following fertilizer treatments be used to each acre: For cowpeas and soybeans, 300 pounds of a 2-8-4 mixture. For cowpeas and sorghum, 300 to 3 50 pounds of a 4-8-4 mix ture. For Sudan grass and millet, 300 to 350 pounds of a 4-8-4 mixture. Highway Deaths Show Decrease Raleigh.—Automobile accident fatalities in North Carolina were on the decrease Monday, records of the state highway safety division showed. During June 72 persons were killed on state highways, this to tal being 21 under the figure for May and 11 less than in June, 1935. For the first six monahs of this year, there were 439 fatalities as compared with 480 in the same period last year. The injury and accident list was seen to be increasing over compar able periods, however. Officer Not Impressed By Wooden ‘Gun* Greensboro.—Kenneth I. Stone, West Virginia, emulated the late John Dillinger in attempting a "wooden pistol” escape from the Guilford county jail and came very near to joining the Indiana desper ado in eternity. Although not shot, Stone would have been had he not quickly re sponded by dropping his make-be lieve weapon when ordered to do so by Deputy Warden W. J. Hobbs, who, shotgun in hand, frustrated the attempt after the fleeing pris oner had reached the jail elevator. Stone, a Federal prisoner held for impersonating a government officer in Winston-Salem, broke from his cell tier’at 10:45 o’clock when Deputy Warden Hobbs made his round to lock the prisoners in side their cells for the night. ■ 1 1 ■ 1 ' ~ — THE INNER VOICE The inner voice is speaking So sweetly to my soul, And bids me keep on seeking Until I find the goal, Beyond this world of sorrow Where saints forever reign, And where a glad tomorrow Will set me free from pain. Chorous The inner voice divinely Is blessing, day by day, And ever sweet and kindly Leads up the heav’nly way, To where there is no weeping, No heartaches and no sighs, Where saints are in God’s keeping And glory fills the skies. The inner voice is blessing My heart from day to day, And bids me keep on pressing Along the heav’nly way; For there’s a home awaiting Just in the bye and bye, Where there’s no sin nor hating, And not a care nor sigh. The inner voice is telling Me I should watch and pray; I feel its sweet impelling Along the glory way, Where many saints and sages By faith have 'humbly trod Throughout the by-gone ages And made it through to God. -Walter E. Isenhour, Cherryville, N. C. TOO MUCH FOR A DIME A boy entered a grocery store and said to the storekeeper: "Gimme a dime’s worth of asa fedita.” The storekeeper tied up the package and the boy said: "Dad wants you to charge it.” "All right; what; your name?” "Shermerhorn.” "Take it for nothin’,” he said, ain’t goin’ to spell 'asafetida’ and 'Shermerhorn’ for no dime.” BETTER FRIDAY—SATURDAY SALE OF CHEAP CARS T FORD Touring_$ 20.00 ’28 Chevrolet Coach- 50.00 ’28 Ford Roadster- 95.00 ’29 Oldsmobile Sedan — 125.00 ’29 Nash Sedan- 95.00 ’29 Chevrolet Sedan- 95.00 ’27 Dodge Sedan- 35.00 ’27 Dodge Sedan- 55.00 ’26 Hudson Sedan- 75.00 ’30 Ford Touring- 125.00 AND OTHERS SALE OF USED TRUCKS ’29 Ford Pickup_$ 95.00 ’30 Ford Pickup_ 75.00 ’30 Ford Panel_ 145.00 ’30 Ford 1 1-2 ton_ 145.00 ’29 Chevrolet Pickup ’32 Chevrolet 1 1-2 tton, cheap ’34 Dodge 1 1-2 ton ’34 Chevrolet 1 1-2 ton. McCANLESS MOTOR COMPANY Everyday Cooking Miracles BY VIRGINIA FRANCIS Dir+etor Eoipmini EUetrie C—hmry JmKM# Yes—we just bet you’ve never heard anything like it before—put ting up fruit right in your ovenl Goodness knows we’ve done a lot of preserving in our time, but this new wrinkle—made possible by an auto matic electric range—is almost un canny! Remember how you used to have to stand over the old kettle stirring, dunking jars and side-stepping the hot drops of bubbling juices? That was before modern methods of con trolled-heat cookery were known. But today, with your electric range, you can do the canning simply, easi ly and pleasurably, whether you are an experienced homemaker or a be ginner. Heat Can’t Escape No longer need you use open ket tles, steamers or water baths as a means o£ preserving fruits, because the fruit is processed right in the electric oven. No longer need you work in a hot stuffy kitchen while canning because the oven of the | electric range is so well insulated that the controlled electric heat can’t leak out, • No longer need you stir tediously. Long hours of drudg ery are eliminated. Foods no longer turn out mushy and tasteless. Sounds like magic, doesn’t it? And you’ll find it is, tool Simply select your fruit as you would for ordinary canning, making sure that It ripe, firm, and unbruised. Pre pi for canning by washing, stem ming, slicing, paring, pitting— whichever the case may be. _ Pack into sterilized quart or pint jars. Make a sugar syrup of the de sired consistency, then add it to within one inch of the top of the jars. Adjust clean new rubber rings and partially seal. So far you’ve done the easiest part of ordinary canning, but the next step in this method is stm easier I You are going to be able to process nine quarts or twelve pints of fruit at one time, with practically no trouble. First, you arrange the jars one inch apart on a cookie sheet with turned-up edges and place on the second rack from the bottom of the oven. Then you set the tempera ture control of the electric oven to the right temperature, turn the oven switch to bake position, and go off to shop or read while the canning is done for you! When the time is up, remove the jars from the oven and screw or clamp the covers tight to seal. Place the jars on cake rack3 or oven racks to cool. Then label and store in a cool place. Fruit Syrup [ The syrup for peaches, blackber ries and cherries—all fruits that you will want to be canning right now—is made by dissolving one cup sugar in two cups water. Set tha oven at 300 degrees for \ZA hour* for the peaches. For the blackber ries and cherries set the oven at 250 degrees for 1% hours. 1, - - --—-— With the aid of modern electric ranges homemakers now can fruits in the oven—easily, simply, and with excellent results in flavor. Stokes County farmers liked the old AAA committeemen so well that they re-elected most of them as committeemen under the new farm program, All crops in Union County will be late this year, as a result of the drought, but now that the dry spell has been broken, most of the crops have made a fair stand. With much terracing already done, and a great deal of the tillable land planted to crops, it is becom ing more difficult to find idle land for terracing in Richmond County. Damage done by chinch bugs to corn in Pamlico County is decreas ing since thef armers started the control methods advocated by the county farm agent. |HERRlNGTON*sl Lean Pork CHOPS lb. 20c Sliced Country HAM lb. 48c MEAT LOAF SEASONED READY-FOR-OVEN lb. 25c • Fresh Dressed Fryers and Hens Complete Assortment of tasty Cold Lunch Meat • $gry CHOPS lb. 17c Ginger Snaps 2 lbs. 25c HERRINGTON’S
