TOWN HONORS DAIRY PRODUCERS . . . Jeffersonville. Ind., re cently honored Mr. and Mrs. Clark W. Dellinger, for having developed two world’s record registered Holstein-Friesian cows—a mother and daughter pair. The mother, top photo, produced 18,853 pounds of 4.6 per cent milk in 14 years, 6 months. The daughter, lower photo. Del linger Co'antha Wild Rose, established a senior four-year-old butter fat record. Worldwide Food Supply Is Discussed At Jersey Show A specific program by which American dairy farmers can dou ble milk production in the next 15 years and help solve the Amer ican and worldwide food supply problem was outlined by John H. Kraft, president of the Kraft foods company, to junior dairy men of the All-American Jersey show at their exposition banquet at Columbus last week. This food problem has import ant social aspects, he said, be cause “here lies the discontent, misery and discord that' makes for war.” ‘The Food and Agriculture Or ganization of the United Nations has set as its goal a food supply which would afford an average of 2,600 calories per day for all the peoples of the world,” he de clared. *; “A recent report states that by 1950 the U. S. will need- more than 55 per cent more milk than was consumed in pre-war years, or a total of 170 billion pounds of milk.” Mr. Kraft listed five basic sug gestions by which the youqg dairy men could help meet national and world milk needs: “Raise the na tional average of 180 pounds of butterfat per cow per year, strive for more even production through out the year, take care of the land you farm, make use of all agen cies that can help you, use bet ter tools for the job. “I think it is enough to point out that the average return over feed cost of a cow producing 300 pounds of fat is roughly three times that of a cow producing 150 pounds of fat. Or to put it an other way, the feed cost per hun dred pounds of milk goes down rapidly as production per cow goes up. Winter milk production, he pointed out, is about 40 per cent below production during spring flush. “Dairymen who have achieved a better balance through more even production the year around not only produce about 700 or 800 more pounds of milk per cow per year but show a greater profit and; have a better utilization of labor throughout the year. “Certainly the productive level of our heads is directly correlated with the productive level of our land,” Mr. Kraft said. “The grass and hay produced j on eroded; Worn'out land just j naturally do’ not have the feeding value of forage grown on well-fertilized land.” . y ... Advising the young Jerseymen to make full use of government and business agencies in doing their job, Mr. Kraft said: “The 1 facts and knowledge are there to 1 guide us in doing a better job. Our national and state experi ment stations are a gold mine of information. Our colleges of ag riculture and extension services are the means of bringing that information to you and me on the farm. “Our government does not stop with advice and research. We are OFFICE SUPPLIES We carry a good many fice supply items and -a< der others that we > have in stock. Thi» <* dered more as a service prices are low. » Letter & Bill Filet, with Index -.■ » I ' . , SfS CARBON PAPER OF ALL KINDS Typewriter Carbon, 3 sheets, 10c; Box, $2.00, up Letter Size, $2.00 —:— Legal Size, $2.50 TYPEWRITER RIBBONS . $1.00 each ADDING MACHINE ROLLS, 15< MERCHANTS SALES BOOKS Plain. 5c: doz. 5ic—Name and Address imprinted. jiw Prices LETTER FILE FOLDERS, box___$1.75 RUBBER STAMPS—RUBBER STAMP PADS: LEDGER BOOKS AND LEDGER SHEETS The Alleghany News. I offered incentives to do a better I job. There are dollars and cents payments for soil building prac tices that make for better farm ing.” Turning to agricultural engi neering problems, Mr. Kraft said: “When our agricultural industry and the farm machinery industry put as much thought into simpli fying barn work as they have into simplification of field work, then we’ll bring the hours of milking and feeding and bam cleaning down to a level comparable with the savings that have been made through mechanization of field work.” “There are other practices that are just as challenging as those I have mentioned, and I bring them up now only to call to your attention that if you are going to be successful dairymen your job is a well rounded one that calls for all the skills and resources you can marshal. You have toi be an all ’round man to be a really suc cessful da iry man. “Cows still have to be milked every day and even with the im provements that you are going to make in dairying methods and practices there will still be work connected with dairying. Yet I would point out to you that it will be honorable work, and work that will give you untold satisfaction and a decent living. It could not be otherwise for you are produc ing nature’s finest food—milk— and a food of which there never can be enough.” Four-year rotations for tobacco with cotton, corn, and peanuts has been found most effective in the control of root knot says the N. C. Agricultural Experiment Station experts. (Paid Political Advertisement) Paul Swanson For State Senate As your Republican candidate for the State Senate, from the 29th. district I am in favor of the following program for our district: 1. Improvement of Secondary roads. 2. Better pay for school teachers. 3. Better business con ditions, encouragement for the establishment of more factories, in our district. 4 More comfort able school houses, and school equipment. 5. Encouragement of tourist trade by Statewide adver tising, 6. A State bonus for World War II veterans. 7. A free business, or professional license, for any disabled veteran. 8. A Statewide, automobile liability, and property damage, insurance, required of all auto drivers. 9. A general improvement in law en forcement, and especially as re gards State highway traffic. Furthermore I would like to say that this year it is Alleghany’s time to have the State Senator, and since the Democratic Party’s leadership has forfeited this county’s right to another county; and failed to nominate a citizen of Alleghany, for the place, hence losing our time in the regular ro tation plan, then I appeal to all voters regardless of your party label, to vote for me for State Senator. I will welcome your vote and highly appreciate it. I consider myself as independent aa any man can be and still re tain a party label, as I am not dictated to by any political boss, click, or pressure group, and I am Alleghany’s man, and have the best interests of Alleghany at heart, and I made this county my home by choice <and not by an ac cident of birth, t love the majestic hills of Alleghany, and the good , people who inhabit them. So I | say to all voters if I am elected I will serve all of you regardless of whether you are a Republican or Democrat, to the best of my ability, and as my conscience leads me. Remember the name Paul Swanson, the office State Senate, the time, November the 5th. 1946, and if you are not reg istered to vote get registered in Oct., especially does this apply to veterans of World War II, as I am a veteran of World War II myself I would like to see every veteran a voter. Finally I ap for “THE peal to you to vote | DRESS REVUE WINNER, Miss Naomi Douglas, who recently was awarded one of the first five blue ribbons at the annual district 4-H club dress revue and clothing achievement contest at the Forsyth county courthouse in Winston-Salem. Conservation Farming News Weekly Items Of Interest To Alleghany Fanners By H. E. SINGLETARY AND T. R. GREENE W. F. Hoppers, of Sparta, had soil samples taken on some of his fields last week. Mr. Hoppers is planning to apply lime and phos phate on these fields and would like to know the amount needed. The New River Soil Conservation District personnel are assisting also in planning a complete con servation program on this farm. Howard Cowan, of the Laurel Springs community, has recently purchased some additional land which joins his original tract. Mr. Cowan has his lime on the land ready for spreading. He also plans to get some idle land in pasture grass, and some eroded spots healed over with lespedeza. R. V. Blevins, of Topia. plans to seed a broom sedge field to pasture next spring. Lime is be ing applied this fall. Next spring the broom sedge field will be scarified with a spring tooth har row before seeding. Ray Parlier, of Piney Creek community, is seeding 3 acres of rye this fall and plans to seed about 3 pounds of ladino clover and 12 pounds of orchard grass per acre around the middle of April. Lime is being applied on this field as recommended by a soil analysis. Van Miller, of the Laurel Springs community, plans to treat a large acreage of idle broom sedge land. This farm has been idle in the most part, for a num ber of years. Mr. Miller will use this farm mainly for a grazing boundary, but he plans to set white pines on some of the thin spots. : The nation's 650 million acres of forest lands must be made more productive. R. W. Graeber, Extension forester at State Col lege, says there is a big job to do in North Carolina. The pressure saucepan can be used to advantage in preserving the natural food value of scarce food stuffs. Directory Of The Church Services SPARTA BAPTIST CHURCH Rev. F. G. Walker, Pastor N. D.
