~ > —— DON'T FEED TERMITES: See Me for a lifetime treatment for Cuprinal for termites and other pests. When Cuprinol goes in, rot stays out. You can't keep termites away but you can make your woodwork, can vas, timber and ropes so unappetizing they'll go elsewhere for their meals. After all, why should you feed them when you don't have to. See Me for 100 percent water-proofing for ce ment blocks, cinder blocks and roofs. See Me for Flamecote fireproof paint. I have the men and equipment to apply this material at a reasonable price. FREE ESTIMATES OPEN SATURDAYS TO TAKE ORDERS AND GIVE DEMONSTATIONS H. D.

L W. F0NV1ELLE & SON TABOR CITY j Advice Given On Cutting Farm Costs Labor and manhours can be saved on the farm through mech anization, says C. B. Ratchford, in charge of Extension Farm Management at State college, but this is not always the most prac tical, nor the least expensive method. One of the best ways to cut down on the cost of labor is to keep all of the equipment in good working order, Mr. Ratchford said. By proper greasing and maintenance good equipment will last many years longer, he said. The simplest piece of farm equipment, such as a middle buster, operates better if it is in proper adjustment, and is not only capable of doing more work but is also easier on the man and mule, or tractor. To save labor at rush seasons, farmers should repair all equip ment during winter months when other work is practically at a stand-still, he said, adding that rainy days also provide an op portunity for "catching up" on this maintenance. All farmers spend considerable time on chores like feeding and watering workstock, chickens, or hogs, the specialist said. Labor can be saved on most farms by simply planning the quickest way to do these chores. It may be possible to feed the chickens, hogs and workstock at the same time, thus saving extra trips. By making running water avail able on the poultry and hog ranges, additional labor time and work can be saved. If hogs and poultry are on range, labor can be saved by carrying a week's supply of feed to the range on a wagon and storing it in a weatherproof box. Farm buildings and lots are not always arranged for the most convenience and to count for ec onomy of time. A few changes, or better still, careful planning when the farmstead is laid out make a big difference in the day's work, Ratchford said. ... HINTS... To Homemakers The present trend toward smaller bedrooms, built-in double bunks for children and lower beds may save expense in build ing and furnishing but adds to the time and effort spent on bed making, housing specialists of the U. S. Department of Agriculture remind home-planners. Making beds by pullman-porter methods is too strenuous for many women but is unavoidable with some of the new space-sav ing bed arrangements, the spec ialists point out. At least 18 inches clear space around three sides of the bed is needed for convenience in making. If a bed nust stand in a corner or alcove t should be equipped with good jall-bearing casters so that it can be rolled out for making or for cleaning the room. The height ο fthe beds is also important for convenient making. The higher beds of a genei-ation ago had at least one advantage they—they could be made with out stooping. Beds that stand 20 to 24 inches from the floor require much less effort to make them than the newer low beds. Moreover, higher beds are hand ier when caring for a sick mem ber of the family. The height of hospital beds is good evidence of this. If the men or children in the family happen to track tar, road you find black marks on rugs or floors as a result, remove marks oil or asphalt into the house and promptly. The older the strain, the more difficult it is to re move. And for these stains use cleaning fluid (grease solvent) not soap and water. On carpets and rugs scrape off all the black possible with a dull knife. Then sponge with the cleaning fluid using a light brush ing motion in order not to rub the stain into the fabric. | Several light applications using a fresh cloth each time may be neces >ary to get ^11 black traces ou1 To remove these spots on wax id floors, rub with cleaning fluii on a soft cloth.
