Leaders of the mountain, reli

whose bout with a rattler left
her with a gangrenous arm,
|f' would be on hand, for the big

Members of the family hid the
girl away after authorities feared
she would die from the rattler
bite. They have refused to pro
duce her since then, .but..an
nounced that she was well and
would appear this week.
Snake-handling cultists from
throughout the South were pour
ing into the remote region to test
their faith with blow-torches and
serpents in Monday’s demon
stration and to see the girl her
self.

Legislators Making Tour To
Secure Opinion Of Farmers
Washington — The House Ag
riculture 'Committee set out this
week on a “grass roots” tour of
the nation to learn how farmers
I feel about producing food for
foreign relief.
| Mainly, the committee is go
; ing out to get “die farmer’s view
on what he wants his Govern
ment to do about "long-range
agriculture policy.
“But,” Chairman .Hope (R
Kan.) said, “any farm plan for
the next three or four years is
bound to be Snndamentally af
i fected by the measures of relief
we extend abroad. Hie whole
farm economy will be affected.”
Just before the .committee
men departed, .one farm organ
ization—the Fanners’ Union —
[.submitted a recommendation
that Congress be called into ex
1 traordinary session immediately
to approve a broad prograrfi of
European aid, along the lines of
the multi-billion dollar program
based on the Marshall plan sit
helping Europe as she helps her
self.
! Secretary of Agriculture Clin
ton P. Anderson submitted the
Administration’s complete pro
posals for long-range agricul
ture policy. He told the commit
tee this program—design \1 for
I the day when farmers again are
threatened by pri;|'depressing
surpluses — would not Yn opera
tive so long as America makes
large shipments of food abroad.
Work animals whose regular
grain and hay is supplemented by
being out on pasture at night are
cooler and more comfortable in
hot weather, require less groom
ing, can get water and salt when
ever they feel like it, require no
bedding, and but little work in
cleaning -stables.
WIPING OUT OF RENT
CONTROLS IS SOUGHT
Washington — The wiping out
of rent controls next Spring “is
the next imperative step to lick
completely the housing shortage,”
a subgroup of the National As
sociation of Real Estate Boards
said.
In another housing develop
ment, Senator Wagner (D-NY)
disclosed that a nation-wide sur
vey of ci*& slums—with a view to
replacing them with tidy homes
—is underway.
Alexander Summer of Teaneck,
N. J„ chairman of the realtors’
Washington committee, will rec
commend to the national associ
ation that efforts be continued as
necessary to see to it that rent
controls end February 29 as pro
vided in the present,' modified
rent conf’ol law.
Summer issued a statement in
Washington. He indicated thta the
reeil estate people made their de
cision primarily because of re
cent statements “of. a few Con
gressmen that Congress may con
sider extending control beyond
that date.”
Senator McCarthy ‘(R-Wis) said
Saturday that “I would have no
objection to extending rent con
trol” beyond February if Hous
ing Expediter Frank Creedon
continues to be guided by local
rent advisory boards. '
Seeded in September, crimson
clover will supply grazing over
about the same period as Italian
rye grass, but may not ^upply
quite as good grazing during'mid
winter as it may be bitten down
by freezes and very little new
growth is made at this time.

Fanners Warned
Of Hog Cholera
One of thg greatest financial
losses in recent history may" oc
cur this fall unless Norths iCar
olina farmers take eyejjy ^pre
caution to protect their fall pigs
from hog cholera, says ■ fir.-C. D.
Grinnells, professor of Veterinary
Science at State College.
Pointing to the present record
prices and relative scarcity of
j pork, Dr. Grinnells agrees with
I the American Foundation * for
j Animal Health, that the Nation’s
swine raisers have a tremendous
stake in this fall’s battle against
cholera, the Nation’s No. 1 swine
killer.
Because the danger of fan
cholera flareups is especially
great in the next few weeks, far
mers are urged to keep a close
watch on their swine and have
fall pigs vaccinated early. Vac
cination, plus good sanitation and
proper feeding, is the best safe
guard against cholera losses, Dr.
Grinnells said.
Five steps to ward off possible
outbreaks are recommended:
Have all pigs vaccinated—pre
ferably around weaning time—
first making sure, by veterinary
examination, that they are in
condition to receive the im
munization.
Watch the herd closely for
signs of fever, loss of appetite,
or weakness. A hog just coming
down with cholera can spread the
virus, even before .pronounced
symptoms occur. If signs of illness
are noticed, suspect cholera first.
If an outbreak threatens, and
pigs have not yet been vaccinat
ed, have this done immediately.
If there is cholera in the neigh
borhood, quarantine . for at least
two weeks any new livestock
brought to the farm. Warn your
neighbors if you suspect cholera
on your own farm.
Be careful about visiting hog
lots. Disease may be spread in
this way.
The production of burley to
bacco in North Carolina is esti
mated at 15,000,00 pounds.
