Farmers who are farmers, those who make their living from the soil, would do well to follow the county agent’s adv’ce and raise whatever livestock the farm will produce along with soil crops. It has heretofore been pointed out that parts of the United States with the highest farmer income derive at least half of that income from livestock. The average for North Carolina is about 20 per cent from livestock. There is no profit in any kind of live stock. where all the feed must be purchas ed. A man should grow into the livestock business and not try to buy himself in. If he tries to buy into the business it is a good bet that someone will sell him out. The number of cattle, etc., per farm should be govenied by the acreage and ability to produce feed along with the other crops. Pasture is the number 1 e.'- sential and there should be adequate pas ture to supply the livestock in good condi tion throughout a greater part of the year. It is now possible to develop pastures in Wilkes county which will furnish grazing in every month in the year. This does not mean that some other feeds will not be needed, especially in the winter months, in addition to grazing. But if “green stuff” can be provided for cattle the amount o; other feeds needed will be decreased to a small m'nimum. Wilkes has an ample market for milk and a good cow will provide milk suffi cient to bring in $70 or more per year. In addition to the cash income, keeping cattle will re.sult in farm improvement i; proper management practices are follow ed. We are not able to advise on the details but would like to refer interested farmers to J. B. Snipe.s, the county agent, who will help plan live.stock production for any in dividual farm. MONDAt, ^ A thi^y W old boy receivod «1 for Christmaa proaont During hla first days exparionce with the litUe vehicle he received many bumps. That night he sup-1 plemented his bedtime prayer with “Lord teach me to put on brakes.” From a little child grown-ups can learn some of life’s most valuable lessons. And indeed most of us need to pray to be taught to apply brakes. How many of us are daily receiving bumps because we are living so fast. We speed on the highways and ac cidents happen. We speed in our activities and business transactions. We miss the time for reflection and meditation and the forming of fine friendships. We go so fast we are missing the beauties and 'real joys of life. “Lord teach us to put on the brakes.” AJmrditus By DWIGHTN1CBOL8, et al.

These sentences were especially significant: “If our capa city to produce is limited by machines, it must ever be remembered that these ma chines are operated by the skill and the stamina of the workers. As the government is determined to protect the right of work ers, so the nation has a right to expect that the men who man the machines will dis charge their full responsibilities to the urgent needs of defense. . . . “The nation expects our defense indus tries to continue operation without inter ruption by strikes on lock-outs. It expects and insists that management and workers will reconcile their differences by volun tary or legal means to continue to produce the supplies that are so sorely needed.” The American people are patient. But patience has worn thin when it comes to the labor racketeer or the profiteering in dustrialist. There is no just difference of opinion between management and labor which cannot be settled by arbitration. There is absolutely no excuse for a strike in a defense industry today—and no ex- cu.se for that insidious -form of sabotage which is called the “slow-down.” at the bottom and writing up. By actual teat on one occaaion It took a driver three mlnntee and fifty aeconda to go one block on Mala Street and four mlnntea ar.d 40 aeconda to go one block on Tenth Street. So In writing about traffic condition we began at the top. On another occaaion the altpa- tion might have been .reversed but the teat resulting In whnt It did, we choose ’Tenth Street first.

And while some may sh-?d tears over the law being so hard on the driver, they .seem to forget that drunken drivers are extre mely dangerous. Why not shed some tears for the widows .tnd orphans in the state brought to their present state because of drivers who get under the wheel drunk? The way the law stands every person knows that conviction of driving drunk means giving up driving license for one year. The person who gets drunk and gets into iiis car does so with the knowledge that the least pun shment he can hope for if caught is $50 fine, payment of cost and loss of license for one year. There is not one sound reason to repeal the law.

Year Of Proof W'alter W’ipman, columni.st of the New York Herald Tribune, who is not given t false optimism, recently came forth with an assurance and a prophecy which every one in this country ought to read. We quote from it: ”If this m'ghty continent goes to work as it can go to work when it goes all out, the year 1941 will see the end of doubt, divi sion, and fear, and the gathering together of an .A,merica which is true to its past and ecjual to anything that the future may bring. Then we shall not on.y sleep, well at night; in the day, having the conscious ness of working hard and to a single pur pose. we shall have done with anx'‘ety. “For thi.s we depend upon the govern ment for the plan.s, the specifications, the !eader.ship. But for the results we depend upon the directors, the managers, the tech nicians, and the employees of American in dustry. The defense of America is in their hands. They are not the con.scripted em- ''loyees of a totalitarian state, and it is for fhem to show that a free indu.stry ca" in fact keep the world free. “If they succeed, as I believe they will, their success will insure the future of free indu.stry by the only means through which its future can now be insured—by an over-| whelming proof of its superiority in the .struggle for existence ... If now the free peoples are defeated, there will be no fu- lii’-e anywhere for free industry. . . . “But American indu.stry will not fa 1 in the te.st. . . . The world will see this year the proof that this young continent possesses^ the energy which, throttled down in these ten years of depression and confusion, will Dour forth to astound the world.” Americans with faith in their country be lieve these words with all the'r hearts. They know that the year ahead is one ;n which this nation will again prove its in dustrial and its democratic power, and they face their part in that tes"; with real confi dence. but we presume the length of time required is from two hours up). It is no wonder that persons normally courteous and polite to each other are ready to fly at each other's throats when they Ket under the wheel. Suppose for instance that you have taken the time to find a parking space (if one happened to be av»iU?ble) and maybe yon had to walk a whole block or more to buy an article; and you return to your car; get in and start to figure on getting out but can do nothing about it because there is a on alongside of yours on the outside and it has no driver. The natural thing to do is cuss; and cussin isn’t nice. If you must double park; r your ego is so great that yon d not give a hang for the other fel. low’s rights, then please do noi double park exactly opposite > car double parked on the other side and make of a street- built wide enough to accomodate flv» ears a one.way lane that is crook ed as a '/ail fence und which a black snake would have trouble negotiating.
