Former Resident
Cadet In Active
Military Service
Lawrence Herbert Dworetzky,
better known as “Larry,” a grand
nephew of Joseph S. Silversteen,
of Brevard, is now a cadet, taking
his basic officers training at Boco
Raton, Fla.
Mr. Dworetzky has been em
ployed by the Transylvania Tann
ing company and the Toxaway
Tanning company during his
vacations for a number of years.
Upon his graduation with the de
gree of B.M.E. the early part of
April from the New York Univer

placed on the reserve list a year
before, but was allowed to finish
his course, and was immediately

father. Mr. Meyer Dworetzky, is
vice president and treasurer of
the above companies.

QUESTION: Some of my canned
food froze recently. Is it safe
to eat? i
ANSWER: The answer is “Yes.”
if spoilage organisms haven’t
gotten into the cans. Some
times the seams spread so lit
tle that leaks cannot be seen,
and yet bacteria can get in,
says Mrs. Cornelia C. Morris,
Extension Economist in Food
Conservation. It is best to
use canned food, which has
frozen, as rapidly as possible
after freezing.
QUESTION: How much silage
should be fed to a dairy cow
during the winter months?
ANSWER: Cows will consume
about 3 pounds of silage per
day for each 100 pounds of
liveweight, says J. A. Arey,
Dairy Extension Specialist.
Putting it another way, a
thousand-pound cow will eat
about thirty pounds of silage
during the day. Many good
feeders mix the grain ration
in the manager with the sil
age.

used cars are very hard to get now and they cure ex

Sent FDR By Local Post

The local post of the American

bitterly towards prepetrators of
strikes, and feel strongly that all
strikers are stabbing our soldiers
in the back while the soldiers are
fighting ours and the strikers’ bat
tles and dying that we and the
strikers may be free. We trust
that you will hold the line at home
by suppressing strikes at all costs.
“Rest assured that the legion
will support any action you take
in suppressing strikes.”
The telegram was inspired by
the threat of a full-scale strike in
the coal mining industry tomorrow
