Two Sides To Story
The publisher of a newspaper
got from Washington toe salaries
of some of the local commuters and
published them on his front page.
The wife of one of these publicized
gentlemen telephoned the drug
gist a lew aays later w wua owuu
soap. She was offered an Imported
product at a fancy price. She said
she did not want to pay any such
price, Whereupon the merchant
answered: With a salary as big as
your husband draws, what do you
care what you pay?"
The lady replied in no uncertain
terms that her husband's salary
was none of the merchant's busi- ,
ness, and that one more wise crack
along those lines would cause her
to close her account which has
been profitable to him for fifteen
years.
Thousands of stories counld be
told about the broadcasting of
salaries as disclosed on income tax
?Osvwtn Af thom oro hlimPN
ICIllUXU. OUUiC V> vuvu< mv
ous, many tragic. Whether the
practice will be continued, no one
can tell but it should not be.
Deep down in the worst part of
human nature is a love of peeking
through key-holes, spying under
window shades, and reading other :
folks' mail.
If salaries are going to be published,
why doesn't Big Business ,
publish them first, and publish
taxes with them? A salary of $100,000
evokes the widespread comment
that "no man can possibly
be worth so much." But the figures
take on a different aspect if
they are published in this form:
Salary $100,000; Federal state and
local taxes, $65,000, net to president,
$35,000.
I was talking the other night)
with a man whose published salary
is $225,000. He said that his brothers
and sisters wonder why he
doesn't send each of them a Roils
Royce. "But when I have paid my
taxes I have $90,000 left," he said,
"and when I have taken care of :
my thirty-four (dependants I am
just about as well off as I was ]
when I was making a $100 a week." ,
Do We Out-Smart Ourselves? (
We were chatting about the j
steady rise of a seemingly slowminded
man we both kno.
"The case hinged on the testi- |
mony of one witness, a weather ,
beaten country doctor. The smart ,
young lawyer on the other side
questioned him briskly about an i
obscure point of physiology, and J
the poor old fellow floundered. The
smooth lawyer could not hide his
pleasure. It was obvious thai) he
expected the doctor's halting per- ,
formanoe to cast doubt on all the i
claims of his opponent. He rubbed ,
his hands, and made it clear that
he toad the verdict in the bag. j
"But in the jury room," my friend ,
said, "our first vote showed that
the smart young lawyer had lost. ]
Not one of us jurors said a word,
but here is what we thought ....
That country doctor has worn
away his life, driving through
blisartfs to attend sick mothers
and braving floods to bring babies (
Into the world. Day and night he
has toiled, often with no hope of ;
any pay. His book knowledge on i
the point at issue was back of him i
a quarter of a century, maybe. The :
The smart young lawyer had un- i
doubedly been boning up on the :
subject the night before.
"Two things we knew, however?
that the doctor had been trying

to give ihonest evidence, and that
the lawyer had been trying to outsmart
the doctor and pull the wool
over the jurors' eyes. The smart
lawyer probably never knew why
he lost the case. Presumably he
learned nothing from it. But 1
learned this," my friend concluded,
"there is such a thing as being so
smartTfchat you outsmart yourself."
He thought a minute, and then
added: "Perhaps that is one reason
why a lot of us go ahead so fast
in our twenties, and then hit the
toboggan when we ought still to
be on our way up."
Farm Questions
And Answers
Question: How soon should sexes
be separated in growing chicks?
Answer: The separation should
be made as soon as the males and
females can be determined. With
the Leghorns this can be determined
in from four to six weeks
and from seven to nine weeks with
tile American breeds. As the chicks
grow, more floor space is required
and unless this is provided the
chicks will begin toe picking and
feather pulling. When the chicks
are overcrowded they are much
more subject to disease and develop
more siowiy.
Question: Will cotton seed treated
now with Ceresan keep until
planting time?
Answer: Yes. Ceresan is harmless
to cotton seed and they may
be treated now and stored until
planting time. This treatment will
also prevent and further trouble
from contaminated sacks, bins, or
from the planters. Be sure and use
three ounces of the fungicide to
each bushel of seed and mix
thoroughly in tire container before
storing. Seed not needed for planting
should be disposed of in some
way as treated seed are unfit for
feeding purposes.
Question: What spacing should
be given a new planting of dew
berries?
Answer: The plants should be
set from four to five feet apart in
Droce fho cnil
rows Six ictry iipivit. a.-.*, v?u
firmly against the roots and cut
back to two or three buds. The
canes should be allowed to sprawl
on he ground during the first
growing season, but should be tied
to stakes or trained on a two-wire
trellis before growth starts the following
spring. Newly set plants
should be fertilized with stable
manure or a tablespoonful of nitrate
of soda. A new publication
on "Fruits and Nuts for Home Use"
has just been issued by the Agricultural
Extension Service and copies
may be secured by writing the
Agricultural Editor, State College.

New Cooking Era
Electric cookery brings a startling
new era to this business of cooking
"three square meals a day." Remember
the furor that used to take
place in the kitchen when "company"
meals were being prepared?

tainty connected with baking your
first cakes, pies and muffins? Remember
the times you've wanted to
tear away from the kitchen while an
important oven roast was clamoring
for frequent "look-ins"? Well, with
the debut of miracle cookery and
the new automatic electric range,
the "rock, shoals and rapids" encountered
in old time cookery are
entirely forgotten. Cooking now is
established on a scientific, efficient
our interest at heart, and he has
demonstrated his ability to get
things done.,,
The new program is like the
old AAA in some respects, however,
the dean pointed out. It will be
administered by the State College
agricultural extension service and
its corps of county agents. At the
same time, much of the program
will be handled by comunity, county,
and state comittees composed of
farmers.
The state committee, to be made
up of representative farmers from
each section of the State, will have
a voice in determining many matters
of policy.
The county committees will be

Garden Planting
When dogwoods and apple trees
are in blcom it is time for the first'
planting of tender garden vegetables.
This usually means early April
in eastern North Carolina and two
to four weeks later in the foothills
and mountains, depending on the
location and elevation.
Some gardeners take a chance on
earlier plantings, especially with

E. B. Morrow, extension horticulturists
at State College. Top Cross

are good varieties that produce

Tomatoes for the main summer
crop should be started in April.
Plant the seeds in a protected bed

Make succession plantings of the
more hardy crops such as beets,
cabbage, carrots, mustard, garden
peas, Irish potatoes, and radishes.
Radishes should be planted every
two weeks until hot weather arrives.
In April leafy vegetables should
receive a side application of readily
available nitrogen fertilizer to
stimulate their growth.
For an early crop of sweet potatoes,
set the plants as soon as danger
from frost has Dassed. For the
main crop, bed the potatoes six or
seven weeks before time to set
them in the field. Soak the seed
for 15 minutes in a solution of four
ounces of bichloride of mercury to
32 gallons of water.
New Program To
Reduce Cash Crops
The biggest payments under the
new farm program will be for diverting
land from soil-depleting
crops into the production of soilconserving
or improving crops.
For taking land out of cotton the
rate of payment will be around $12
an acre, while the rate for tobacco
will be around $40 an acre, depending
upon the average productivity
of the land.
The rate of payment for wheat,
corn, and other soil-depleters will
be determined in the near future,
and will probably vary with each
farm according to its fertility, said
