TRANSYLVANIA’S Goodwill Concern Buys Fine Transylvania Beef Calves At Show VERNON FRICKS and W. L.

The owners of the animals were: FARREL MOORE, center, Brevard FFA, and JOE FARM ER, right, Harry Straus 4-H. —+ . .. .— ... - IT’S WORTH KNOWING 1. A. GLAZENGR, Agent *---—--■-« The world’s population has in creased 25 per cent in the last 20 years. It’s food production has in creased five per cent. During the same period of time the population of the U. S. increas ed 18 per cent, but our food pro duction showed a 50 per cent in crease. In 1800 the American farmer was feeding himself and only one-third of another person. In 1900 he fed himself and was able to support eight other persons. Today, 1954, the alert U. S. farmer provides food for himself and 14 others, and that in the light of a terrific reduction in farm population. In our colonial days farmers constituted 85 per cent of the U. S. population as com pared to 12 per cent today. “When the city population gets too large to be supported by the farms, a civilization crumbles,” so said the famous historian Edward Gibbon. He further stated that this was one of the major causes of the fall of the Roman Empire. A local swain told his girl friend that he was going to steal a kiss. She replied: “O. K., bud, let the crime wave begin.” WHAT’S BEING DONE? WHO’S DOING IT? J. A.

McCall, 1,000; Richard Mc Call, 500; Gay Valley Camp, 500. Since there is a limited supply this year, applications for white pine seedlings are skyrocketing and those wanting seedlings should place applications at once with any of the agricultural workers.

It’s Time To Check Livestock For Lice January and February are good months to inspect cattle for lice and other insects, according to veteri narians. J. Clark Osborne, head of the veterinary section of State college’s department of animal indi,c*ry suggests immediate inspection of all cattle and if they are found to be infested, even slightly, using one of the following methods of elimination: By spray — On a warm day, use eight pounds of a 50 per cent wet table DDT or methoxychlor pow der in 100 gallons of water. This equals from one-fourth to one-half cup DDT per gallon of water. Or, suggests Osborne, use one pound of 25 per cent lindane in 100 gallons of water. The veterinarian cautions farmers to use onyl meth oxychlor on dairy animals, howev er, and never spray baby calves. By dust — On dairy animals, use a 1.5 per cent rotenone dust. On beef animals, use a 5 to 10 per cent DDT dust (six to eight ounces per animal). Apply thoroughly in the region of the head, neck, tail KEMUVE CELLOPHANE WRAP PING — If you have new lamp shades wrapped in cellophane, be sure to remove the wrapping. Cel lophane has a tendency to shrink with heat from the light bulb and warp the shade as well as creating almost permanent dirt streaks on the lampshade. The cellophane cover also reduces the amount of light. To quickly remove wrapping, clip through cellophane at a horizontal level. It can then easily and quickly be lifted off from the top and from the bottom. RAISIN NUT SAUCE — Com bine 1 1-2 cups sugar with 3-4 cup water and 1 tablespoon white corn and between the legs. Osborne offers a final tip: Housed cattle benefit materially from frequent grooming with a brush and comb. syrup, and cook over medium heat stirring until mixture boils. Cover and cook two minutes. Uncover and cook until mixture thickens slight ly (about 5 minutes). Then add 1 cup seedless raisins cut in half, dash of salt, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, grated rind of one lemon, and half cup of chopped pecans. Blend thoroughly. Serve hot or cold, over vanilla ice cream, plain cake, or puddings. THIS AND THAT — Strong tea diluted with a little water makes an excellent antique-like satin fin ish for pine wood. When dry, cov er with two thin coats of fresh white shellac then wax. You can wash a clothes line with mild soap in warm water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. To keep it clean, try a thin coat of white shel lac. When you think of prescrip tions, think of VARNER’S.—ad?.
