The Cliffside News The Cliffside News is published each week in connection with The Forest City Courier. B. E, ROACH Editor BAPTIST CHURCH NEWS. Several circles of the W. M. U. are making quilts to be donated to the Alexander school for Motherless children at Union Mills. One of the circles met at the R. R- Haynes Memorial building on Friday night of last week and made three quilts and two comforts, a total of five. After the work was done a salad course and coffee was served. The pastor, Rev. J. A. Hunnicutt went to the Alexander schools early last Saturday morning taking a num ber of song books and a box of clothing, etc. Due to the fnclement weather Sunday the attendance at Sunday school was off quite a bit. The sec retary's report showed only 394 with eight visitors and one new member. It was decided Sunday morning to present a pageant and observe "White Christmas" this year. At the evening service the church observed the Memorial Supper after a brief sermon by the pastor. The General monthly meeting of the W. M. U. organization will be held at the church Tuesday evening at. 7:30. The lesson for the morning ser vice was from Judges 7:1-21 and the text Was the 21st verse of this pas sage. The pastor spoke of the Con vention and briefly of the progress of the Baptists in this State during the past one hundred years. DISTRICT B. Y. P. U. MEETING. At 2:30 p. m., we were delighted to have the B. Y. P. U. meeting of this District convene here and des pite the bad weather they came as far as from Polk county. Mr. Yates Ken drick, district leader presided and Richard Horne, member of one of the local unions led the singing. Rev. M. D. Blanton led the devotional and made a brief, but splendid talk on "Preparation, Service and Reward." The local girls' chorus ( sang "Ready to do Kis will," followed by the businses session. Miss Piercy, the secretary called the roll of churches in the district and barring ClifFside Trinity had the largest delegation. It was voted to get an attendance banner to award to the church hav ing the largest delegation at each meeting. In the business meeting Mr. Mar vin Sparks of Cliffside was elected to take Mr. Kendrick's place as district leader as Mr. Kendrick is to take the place of associational Jun ior-Intermediate leader. As district leader Mr. Kendrick made a fine re port showing the work is growing. Space forbids mentioning the sev eral fine talks made by the young people. They were really inspiring and shows how the training in B. Y P. U. fits them for larger service. Another feature of the program was the duet by Messrs. Fay Jollev and Owen Padgett.

NEW POULTRY HOUSE DESIGNED BY ENGINEER Designs for a new poultry house said to embody the latest and best ideas in farm poultry house con struction have been prepared by A. T. Holman, agricultural engineer at State college, in collaboration with the college poultry department. In announcing this new plan, Mr. Hollman says it differs in several features from the one formerly furn ished poultry growers. The house h 20 feet long and 20 feet deep with the capacity for 100 to 115 hens. The building itself is of lumber with the foundation and lloor of concrete. Nests have been placed on the wall at one end of the building and mov able mash hoppers are provided so that the building may be more easi ly cleaned. A maximum amount of sunlight can enter to all parts of the house. A large part of the front is open and the closed part is cov ered with glass cloth to shield the flock in rough, cold weather. Another good feature of the new style house is that there is no possi bility of drafts on the birds. The open front and well placed ventila tors provide air circulation and keep the house from becoming too warm. A wire screen under the perch poles and above the dropping board helps to control disease. The concrete floor aids in the control of mites and lice and the water trough is so placed as to give easy access to fresh drink ing water at all times. This new plan, thinks Mr. Hollman is a distinct improvement over the old one and it may be used as a guide for building the new house or for remodeling the old. Those who wish to have a copy may write to Mr. Holman, the poultry depart ment or to the Agricultural Editor at State college. NEW WINTER PEA GOOD SOIL BUILDER The Austrian Winter pea, intro duced into North Carolina in the last two or three years, is the equal of any other winter legume as a soil builder. "This is the indication we must accept from a series of demonstra tions conducted on the farm of H. W. Bullard of Orrum, Robeson, county," says Enos C. Blair, ex tension agronomist at State college. In October 1929, Mr. Bullard plant ed plots of Austrian Winter peas, haifc-y vetch, crimson /clover, and barley side by side on a uniform piece of soil. In April, 1930, all of these crops had made good growth and were turned under in preparing the land for corn. The barley, being a non-leguminous plant, was used as a check to learn of the effect of the legumes." The results were very interesting says Mr. Blair. The corn grown on the different plots was recently har vested and weighed showing the yield after barley to be 30 bushels an acre. The yield following the hairy vetch was 39 bushels an acre; the yield following the crimson clover was 42 bushels and that after the Austrian Winter peas was 42 bushels an a^re. In other words, the plowing un d3|r of hairy vetch incrJagzd the y eld of corn by nine bushels, while plowing under the crimson clove r and the Austrian peas increased it by 12 bushels each. From the results of these demon strations, farmers may rely as con fidently on the Austrian Winter pea as they have on the older, well known winter legumes which have been popular for so many years Mr Blair says. The yield on none of th e plots were as high as they might have been due to the extremely dry season in that territory this summer. SERVE PORK FRESH BY USING CANNER Fresh pork, formerly available on most farms at hog killing time only, may now be made available through out the year by using the pressure canner. This is how Mrs. Cornelia C. Mor ris, food conservation expert at State college tells how to do it: Select fresh, clean meat without fat and cook for serving without over-cooking. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Remove the bones be cause this reduces the processing time. Cut the meat into pieces suit able for serving and pack while still hot into clean, sterilized cans or jars. Cooking the meat before can ning bring out its flavor and shrinks it so that more can be put into a can. Now use the pressure canner only. Other methods are unsafe. However, either tin cans or glass jars may be used. Where tin cans are used, pack them tightly to within three-fourths of an inch of the top and seal before processing. In using glass jars be sure to wipe off all the grease or fat as this causes the rubbers to disintergrate. Fill the jars in the same manner as the tin cans. Do not screw down the screw top jars nor press down the spring on the glass top jars. Use 15 pounds of pressure and process for 45 minutes without counting the time when the pressure is reaching 15 pounds. Where bones are left in the meat., the time must be doubled. Let the canner cool and • the pressure return to zero beforej attempting to take the cans from the ; canner. Remove the jars one at a time and seal tightly as they are I removed. Canned meats are more attractive if no liquid is added to the pack,; says Mrs. Morris. Following jthe j methods given will permit of fresh | pork for table use throughout the' yeai rather than at the short period following hog killing. Watch the Label on your paper.
