J \ Today and Tomorrow By Frank Parker Stockbridge K. ?/ REPORTER .... at 68 years My friend Frederick T. Birchaii of the New York Times received the Pulitzer Prize in Journalism the other day for the best woik of a newspaper correspondent in 1933. Thai, mnv nnt mean much, but it ? ?- ? f proves one thing that I have long maintained. That is, that newspaper woik is not, as people often say, a "young man's game." For Fred Birchall is 68 years old, and has been a newspaper correspondent for only three years! As a very young man he worked for a short time as a reporter. Then he got an editorial job and rose through the ranks until he was acting managing editor of The Times. At 65, when most men retire, he wanted to be a reporter again, so The Times sent him to Europe to go where he pleased and write what he pleased. His dispatches from European capitals prove that one doesn't have to be a boy to be a good reporter. This is one occupation in which a man can keep on doing good and rtAMofoMfltT imnvAiimrr trrnrlr nn V/WllOk/UliblJ llll^XUVUlg VY wx ft. OO AViACj as his health lasts. BRAIN .... doesn't wear out The human brain doesn't wear out. It grows with use. Not long before his death I asked Thomas A. Edison how he kept his youthful outlook. He had been talking, at 82. of things he was going to do next. "You can keep your brain young by working it hard," he replied. "It grows in power with use. The only thing that grows old about a man is his body. If my stomach holds out I'll be inventing new things and better things at 100." I am convinced that Edison was right. Of course, some men stop thinking, others never did use their brains much. But the man who has a good brain and uses it to its limit grows in ability as time goes on. YOUTH and ambition It is characteristic of youth that everything seems important to the young. That is natural, for everything is new to the young. Nothing lilrp if", pwr ITT ?? ... w.w* **wi/jjyvuwu MUU1C. VVtUO and depressions and hard times and debt and grand ideas for making the world over make a strong impression on youth because they are novel experiences. In my own youth I used to hear the ancient proverb: "A man's a fool till he's forty." I didn't believe it, of course. Youth never believes that its elders know anything about its problems. But after a man has reached middle age he begins to realize that all the things that he used to get so excited about were an old story to his parents. They had been through the mill and knew the answers. And the answers were nothing like what youth thought they were. It is, perhaps, a good thing that HE WARREN RECORE ACTORS PP?At sxttViHSM fwre* Sa5K?

GRADUATES . . . jobs waiting I don't know how many young men were graduated from the nation's colleges and universities this June, but I hear a great deal of talk 1 about there being no jobs for them. 1 There seems to be an idea prevalent that when a boy has finished col- 4 lege the world ought to have his s 'pigeon-hole ready for him to crawl I into and be safe and secure for the I [rest of his life. e I That never was true and it never ? jwill be true. There are just as f I many jobs for the really competent 4 | as there ever were. Look around ( you if you don't believe that, and v see if you find a man who is actual- * ly industrious, ambitious and com- * petent who hasn't got something to do. I talked the other day with the ? vice-president of one of the big oil J companies. "We can't get hold of enough ambitious young men to man our filling stations as we would ^ like to have them manned," he said. 8 "If you know any college boys look- 0 ing for a chance to start in the oil c business, send them to me." 6 LIFE twO views ^ Life is whatever we choose to 4 make it. I know two young mar- h _ j . ? i i? r riea women wno live in tne same * suburb. One is the happiest person I know, the other one of the most i] unhappy. The happy one is a col- 11 lege graduate, whose husband earns r $100 a week as an electrical engineer. They are paying for their t home, raising two children. They keep no servant, own a Ford car, c and the wife finds time to serve on i I the school board, pretty nearly runs 1 the local women's club and be the ? "fixer" to whom all sorts of people t come with their troubles. t The unhappy woman is married i to a man whose income is $25,000 e a year.

Farm Questions And Answers Question: How can developing rnllets be protected from intestinal larasites? Answer: Annual cultivation of he range and the practice of rigid anitation are fundamentals of >arasite control. Then, too, the >ullets should be wormed when ibout 12 weeks of age. This will issist in keeping down heavy inestation. Detailed information on he subject is given in Extension Circular No. 160, copies of which vill be sent free upon application to he Agricultural Editor, State Coleere. Question: Is it a good practice to lide dress garden crops with nirate of soda? If so, when should he application be made? Answer: The quality of succulent egetables is dependent upon rapid ;rowth and for this reason it is ften necessary to make side appliations of quickly available nitro:en. The time of applications will lepend upon the vigor and maturiy of the crop and the grower must ise his best judgment as to the roper time. General rules and he amount to apply are contained n Extension Circular No. 19!) which nay be secured by writing the Agicultural Editor, State College. Question: How much grain should e fed to a weaning calf? Answer: The amount of grain will lepend upon the condition of the ndividual. Each animal shauld be :ept in medium flesh and a good growing condition. The amount fed jefore weaning should be increased ;o take the place of nutrients fornerly supplied by milk. As a genial rule three pounds of grain is 'ed before weaning and this can be hcreased to four or five pounds luring the weaning period and mmediately after the animal is weaned. Little or no grain is reluired, however, when the calves e on good pasture. E S BONDINe GO f M. E. Grant, Sect'y fjjj N. C. [ABILITY BONDS f all Kinds 1 mnn Ymir 'roblems j M ^ on, North Carolina \lfal7a Wins Place S In State's Farming 1 r Reports from Lincoln, Forsyth, ; Stanly and other piedmont North t Carolina counties indicate thai t irhile the dry weather this spring las been detrimental to some crops, . t has promoted the harvesting of a c ine quality of alfalfa hay. "What has been lost in weight ( vas made up in quality," says R. V. Pou, county agent of Forsyth :ounty. "Most of the hay was ;athered and stored without being ouched by rain and some growers ( lave reported yields of two tons to he acre of dry hay from the first jutting." | An increased acreage of alfalfa < vas planted in North Carolina last 'all and indications are that the icreage will be still further increased this fall. Farmers looking ' or desirable crops to plant on their . icres rented to the government are 1 'inding that alfalfa will produce : ;ood yields of a high quality 1 oughage and once seeded will re- ' nain on the land during the period 1 )f the present adjustment piugi&m. rhe crop requires no more careful 1 iand preparation than should be ' jiven to any other crop equally as 1 valuable and if the land is properly imed and fertilized, the returns will more than justify the original ex- ' pense. Prof. R. H. Ruffner, head of the animal husbandly department at State College, says alfalfa is one of the best dairy feeds that can be grown. "I do not know of any other single roughage that is equal to alfalfa. It is palatable, high in protein and minerals and has the needed vitamins," he says. C. J. Maupin, extension poultryman at the college, is equally impressed with the value of the crop In poultry growing. "It is especially good for flocks which have a limited range or do not get enough green feed. It has a tonic effect on growing birds," he said. Use Healthy Birds In Growing Capons Poultrymen planning to develop capons this summer should start preparations in June, uniy tnose cockerels in robust health should be selected for the purpose, says Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the poultry deparment at State College. The cockerel should weigh at least 1 1-2 or 2 pounds, and be dewormed about a week before the operation. Such birds recover quickly and gain rapidly afterwards. Mr. Dearstyne suggests that the birds be deprived of food and water for 24 hours before the operation in order to clean the intestines. The actual procedure of the operation is described in Bulletin No. 290 of the N. C. Experiment Station, which will be sent upon request. For several days after the operation, water and soft feeds should be given and the birds kept quiet so the wound can heal. During the first few post-operation days the birds should have the amount of mash they can eat in 15 minutes in the morning. In the evening the feed should be equal parts of, cracked corn and wheat, as much ; as the birds will eat in 15 minutes. Later a range furnishing an abundance of succulent green feed is necessary if the capons are to grow rapidly. Rye grass, lespedeza, alfalfa, cowpeas, soybeans, and clovers are good. Scratch grain and plenty of water should be available ~t- ?il Hmn Ahout. fwn ounces a cit aix i/imiv/. I ^ YOUR BE! She gives you yoi seed, and Chilean What a friend old Mothc: makes a crop.

A lukewarm soti-^| tion of two per cent coal tar fectant, followed by rinsing warm water, is good The hu4^| parts should be washed daily lgl the first week. If necessary, the dam's milk can be stimulated with such tetd^| as plenty of pasturage, oats, roU^| barley, wheat, bran, and com. if the foal suffers from too ridi^| milk, then the dam's daily rational supply should be curtained, says. The earlier the foal leams to tat^| solid foods, the better for itself aul^f its mother. A mixture with equal^^ parts of oats, bran, and cracked^^ corn is good. Colts should be giren^M clover, alfalfa, or other legume hay^H as soon as they will ait it. Plenty^J of water is important. wnen tne mare is worked, theH colt should be left in a cool stal.1 with the mare being brought to tlgfl barn to sucle the colt in the middle H of the forenoon and a'ternoon. In weaning, the mare and coltfl must be kept well separated uatilH the milk flow has completely stopp-H ed, or the process will have to bcl repeated. The weaning should stan^H when the colt is six months old, will the mare's rations should be nfl down until she has dried off. DR. A. C. YOW I Veterinarian Henderson, N. C. Office phone C2G-R-1; Res.
