Explains How To
Handle Milk Supply
No Additional Tax
On Automobiles Yet
A. F. Kilby, president of Yad
kin Valley Motor company, said
today that many people have been
mislead by publicity and rumors
into believing that defense taxes
have been added on automobiles
prices.
He explained that there are no
taxes on automobile now except
the ones which have 'been on for
yerrs, that defense taxes have not
been added, that the new tax law
has not been passed and it is not
known now what the tax will be
or when It will go into effect.
The handling In the home of
milk produced by the family cow
has long been a troublesome prob
lem, says John A Arey, Extension
dairy specialist at N C State Col
lege.
“You find almost a.s many dif
ferent flavors of milk and butter
a.s there are farm homes,” the
speciellst said. “As a matter of
fact, cows do not produce all
these many flavored products.
The different tastes found in
dairy products in different homes
a -e due to the different way,® the
n ilk is handled.”
A simple method of handling
the milk will solve almost any
problem that arises from the
home production of dairy food,
Arey added He spid that the best
container for milk from one or
two cows is the standard glass
milk bottle. Just after milking,
e milk should he strained
through a good filter-type strain
er after which the filter cloth
should be discarded.
Three to four folds of cheese
cloth can be used when a filter-
type strainer is not available but
it is necessary to sterilize the
cloth with boiling water after
each use. Unless the cloth s
sterilized, it will’act as a source
of bacterial infection to milk each
time the liquid is strained
through it. After straining, the
milk should be poured into quart
glass bottles. A small tin funnel
is good for use to prevent spill
ing. 'The bottles then should he
capped with standard milk .bottle
caps. Several months’ supply of
caps can he bought for less than
50 cents.
The milk next should be cooled
in cold water before It is remov
ed to the refrigerator or Ice box.
AAA Committeeman
Offers Round-Up
Of Wheat Facts
state AAA Oommltteeman-
farmer W. Herbert "White of Cas
well county this week issued three
iip-to-drte statements bearing up
on the wheat situation in North
Carolina:
1. Farmers who want to avoid
payment of penalty on excess
wheat by “delivering it to the
secretary of agriculture” may
now deliver the actual excess
wheat to the county AAA commit-
lee—in areas where it is not prac
ticable to deliver it to grain ele
vators' or warehouses and get re
ceipts. The wheat wiRTnot actual
ly .be delivered to the county AAA
office, but will he delivered at
such time and to such place as
the county committee may desig
nate. The county committee will
be charged with diverting the
penalty wheat into relief chan
nels. , ^
2. August 30 is the final date
On which farmers may sign up for
winter wheat insurance on this
year’s crop (yet to be planted.)
That gives farmers in this state
nearly seven weeks in which to
work out their wheat insurance
plans and make application for
government protection.
3. Government-approved stor
age houses for grain may now he
built of lumber. Formerly only
steel Lins were approved by the
U S Department of Agriculture
for loan storage of grains. This
change in agricultural policy was
cited as “extremely important
since steel bins will not be avail-
able now in quantities formerly
in demand, that because more
steel is needed for defense build
