THROW YOUR SCRAP INTO THE FIGHT ★★★ Let’s Win the War Now ©he Hebulan Herorh Volume XIX. This, That and the Other By MRS. THEO B. DAVIS Sometimes I wonder how I’ve ever managed to get along with no more brain than I have. For in stance: One day last week I told my son’s wife she and I were in vited to a tea on Saturday after noon, Mrs. Irby Gill and Mrs. Robert Dawson, hostesses. We planned away for us both to go and still have some one with the baby; we expected a thoroughly enjoyable time. And on Saturday afternoon we were doing our hair and hunting up good stockings when Nancy Whitley came in. We told her we were going to the tea and she said. “But the tea was yesterday.” And so it was. Mil dred had carefully told me but still I got it wrong. And I hadn’t been to Rhoda’s since she got her new furniture, so there was an added disappointment. Several of our friends have ex presed surprise that not one of those little cans of vegetables pre pared for feeding babies has ever been bought for my youngest grandson, who lives at our house. Being told that he is given some of the same vegetables we use makes some think we just feed him from the family dish. It isn’t ex actly like that. When I cooked turnip greens in the spring a little was taken out before being sea soned and was mashed through a seive, a little butter was put on it with a pinch of salt and Leary ate it. His share of the squash is the neck part that has no seed, and it is steamed, sieved and buttered. Butterbeans, carrots and snap beans are fixed for him the same way. He has not had corn, cab bage, beets, cucumbers, onions, peppers, nor any raw fruit except bananas, mashed fine. He has orange and tomato juice and a few times has had a little juice from a fresh, ripe watermelon. He can eat potatoes since they are full} mature, and they, too, are mashed and buttered. Applesauce for him is run through the sieve and sweet ened as we like it. When we have chicken the baby has the liver, not fried but steam ed and mashed. He may also have a bit a meat from the inside of the breast. If we have fish, he has a little piece wraped in waxed paper and baked in the oven till done. If we have beef, I scrape it with a spoon and get enough meat, free from fiber, to make a tiny patty which is broiled before any salt is added and only slightly cooked. He is given plain ice cream. We bought zwieback for him but found he prefers hard toast to gnaw on. He drinks milk from our cow and takes it whole now. The above diet list might not suit your baby. No doctor has blen cousulted about it, because the baby has stayed well. We had the advantage of my experience with five children and my daughter’s with three and Leary’s mother is willing to use the rules we lay down. He has not had upset stomach or bowels once all sum (Continued on Page Two) K. P. Leonard Is Grower of New Variety of Peach Plans to Inform State College; Peach Is Sweet K. P. Leonard of near Zebulon brought some beautiful peaches up to the vocational building at Wakelon School. These peaches were bright red in color, of very good taste, yellow-fleshed, large in size, and of the cling-stone type. They were grown on a seedling tree (one that grew from seed without being grafted). Since peaches that come from seed are not true to variety due to cross-pollination, there is great possibility of this peach being de veloped into a new variety. Mr. Leonard intends to inform the Horticultural Division of N. C. State College of his discovery. For this reason some of the peaches were put into preservative fluid to use as samples. He is going to bud some seed lings next spring, so as to produce more trees of this kind. This is accomplished by grafting a bud from the desired variety on to any year-old peach seedling. S. A. BUNN S. A. Bunn, 70, prominent farm er of the Hopkins Chapel com munity, died at his home on Zeb ulon, Route 1, Sunday at 9:30 a. m. Funeral services were held from the home Monday at 3 p. m., with the Rev. A. D. Parrish officiating. Internment followed in the famliy cemetery at the home. Mr. Bunn is survived by three daughters. Mrs. A. H. Perry. Mrs. William Richards, and Miss Exie Bunn; one son, S. A. Bunn, Jr., all of Zebulon, Route 1; 14 grandchildren, and two great grandchildren.

Bunn Claims Tallest Wake Tobacco Averages Eight To Ten Feet In Height Carl D. Bunn, former Wake County compliance supervisor AAA, claims to have some of the tallest flue-cured tobacco in Wake County this year on his father’s farm about six miles from Zebu lon. This tobacco now averages from eight to ten feet in height and Mr. Bunn has already harvested 644 sticks of tobacco from only .6 cl an acre. He has not yet harvested more than two-thirds of the crop. We do net know the variety of this tobacco but it was grown from some seed that he located in John ston County last year. The qual ity of the tobacco already harvest ed seems to be fairly good, but some of that left on the stalks is now damaging from too much rain However, Mr. Bunn is expecting an exceptionally large yield from his small acreage of this variety. Vance Brown Is Tried at Meeting Irby Gill had the program at the last meeting. He staged a trial with Vance Brown as a criminal with several aliases and himself as lawyer for the accused, pleading as if before a judge. Irby ended his plea by asking Rotarians to forgive Vance for not being a good Rotarian and to give him another chance on parole. This was one of the most humorous programs ever given at the club and furn ished many laughs for Rotarians. Several members were absent but have made up their atten dance, Mr. Moser attending a meeting of the club at Ahoskie. Do You Have A Spare Car Seat? Town Manager Leon Thompsons announced this week a plan whereby there need be no more | empty seats on cars going to Ral eigh, and much gasoline and tires may be savqd. A blackboard will be placed in the Post Office, and all persons who plan to drive cars to Raleigh at any Time are requested to post the date and time of their trip. Likewise any person who wants to go to Raleigh but has no way is to place his name on the black board. Everyone in Zebuion should be happy to cooperate in this plan, which carries Zebulon’s good neighbor policy further than has before been attempted. • The reality and individuality of man are and God-made, and they are here to be seen and de monstrated; it is only the evil be licf that lenders them obscure. - M; ry Be' cr Eddy.
