So here are timely suggestions from your specialists at State college: SW.INE The month of' December usually means "hog - killing" weather throughout North Carolina. But, warns Prof. Earl Hostetler, there arc other things that are impor tant in curing meat besides cold weather. Pork of excellent quality can be cured on the farm if pre cautions are taken in .slaughtering the hoes and in curing, smoking. and storing the meat. Be sure the job is done . right.

C AGRONOMY There are any number of things the crop farmer can do - in this twelfth month of the year, says Enos Blair, extension agronomist. The Coastal Plain farmer can disc under all corn-stalks, bean .stalks, and cotton stalks before Christmas to improve the fertility of his soil. In the Piedmont,, the grower should plow all clover and lespedeza lands that are to be .planted to corn, cotton, or any other crop next spring. Then, too, the farmer who produces any kind of seed for market can utilize the rainy days of December to put the seed in. salable . condition. Good weather can be used to clean off ditch banks and irregular places in the field. INVENTORY A farm inventory is simply a list of everything a farmer owns and owes at a particular time, says R. W. Shoffner, State col lege farm management .specialist. It serves as a basis for all other farm records, and for the time spent, it gives more valuable in formation about the farm business than any other type of financial record. Here are some of the things a farm inventory will show: the amount of net worth above all debts; whether or not the farmer is getting ahead financially and how much; and a valuable list of all property which may be used in case of fire for .settling estates, and other purposes. Farmers should plan now to take a farm inventory at the end of 1939. DAIRYING The dairy cow's four stomachs have a capacity of 40 to 60 gal lons. So, says Extension Dairyman John Arey, this animal is: no nib- blcr. The cow's digestive organs function best when well filled with good feed. That's tlie reason rouirh- age is so important in her diet. A pound of nutrients can be pro duced more cheaply in roughage than in grain. Therefore, it is coitsidnred a 'good feeding policy to give a COW all the rouirhace she will eat. Lctrume liav. such as al falfa, soybeans, lespedeza, cow- peas, qr clover, w: unquestionably the best hav for dairv cows. Mix ed hays, such as a legume and a grass, legumes-with oats and bar lev, are also rcnri tWulec h o J, cows need, a succulent feed. Silage and winter cover crops' are recom mended forthii purpoie, POULTRY December is a critical month for the poultryman, says Roy Dearstyne, head of the State col lege poultry department. Winter is here, necessitating many days of confinement for the laying birds, which should be in production by this time. Careful management must be practiced, since any neg lect under such conditions is im mediately reflected in the birds' performance. Check . carefully the following items: ventilation, drop curtains, dropping boards, nesting material, and breeding pens. Nat urally, careful feeding must be practiced, and V-shaped . troughs used for feeding scratch. Above all, don t let disease get started in your flock. Cull depressed birds at once. PLANT PATHOLOGY Dr. R. F. Poole, plant disease expert, says there are many cases where sweet potatoes now in banks will rot unless protected from low temperatures and water. Also, he says', this is a good time to ct out dead limbs of trees in yards and orchards. Cut close; to the trunk of the tree and apply a heavy coating of paint to the ex posed surface. TOBACCO ' Right now, tobacco farmers should begin to get their plant beds ready for the. 1940 crop, says Lloyd Weeks, extension tobacco specialist. If possible, choose a new site this year, sq as to avoid any disease organisms that might have remained in the old bed. If an old bed site must be used, it should be burned, or sterilized by steam. Locate the bed in a sunny, weu-arainea place. A loamy type of soil ii belt, 5 1 SUNDAY International II SCHOOL LESSON By HAROLD Lt LUNDQUIST. D. D. Dean of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago, (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for December 3 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education: used by permission. SPREADING THE GOOD NEWS LESSON TEXT Matthew 10:24-39. GOLDEN TEXT Let him that hear eth say, Come. Revelation 22:17. "Bewilderment." That Is the word which the president of a great American university recently said accurately described the present condition of the minds of men. Lit tle wonder that the men of the world are bewildered, for they are like mariners who sail an unknown sea after having thrown away map and compass. Without Christ and with out God's Word men cannot be any. thing but bewildered. That which gives us even greater concern Is that many who are Chris tians, who really know the Guide and who have the Guidebook, are also declaring themselves to be ut terly bewildered. What is the rea son? Obviously that they have not read the Book and have not talked with their Lord. Our lesson for the coming Lord's Day touches on one of the problems which causes many Christians to question God's love and care. They find that their efforts to testify for Him by word or life meet with a violent reaction from a bitter' world, and they discover that such a life involves personal sacrifice and frequently results 1 even the mem bers of their own families turning against them. Can this be God's way of dealing with His people? The answer is found in His Word. The Christian is to be I. Fearless In a Hostile World (vv. 24-28, 32, 83). Note carefully that he is not to be silent (w. 32, 33). We deny our Lord when we fail to speak tor Him when we ought to do so. Christi anity ia not something to be hidden in one' own bosom, a fire' to warm one's own soul. It is good news which is to be proclaimed even from the housetops. But, someone will say, when I do speak there is opposition; they call me names, they threaten' to kill me. Yes, and what of it? "The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his Lord" (v. 24). They called Jesus a devil. They even crucified Him. Should we then expect to be borne to glory on flowery beds of ease? God knows all about this, yes, evn about the hidden and whispered plottings of evil men (v. 26). He will deal with them and judge them in due. season. We need not fear men. The most they can do is to kill the body. Let us consider the eternal God, who i.ot only may take the life out of the body, but is also able to cast both soul and body into hell (v. 28). God is not as a theory, a bit of pious imagination. He is real He is all-powerful. Why then should we be fearful if we serve Him in faithful devotion? II. Fearless In Personal Life (vv. 29-31). It is one thing to be bold in the midst of battle. It is quite an other thing to be fearless in the quiet of one's own room, or of one's own heart. Satan is expert at that point. He comes to us with his humiliating accusations of our un worthiness, yes, of our worthless ness. Sadly enough our own knowl edge of ourselves confirms his dis mal judgment. But wait! If we are Christians we are not our own. We are bought with a price, the precious blood of Christ. We belong to Him. He Is our advocate with the Father. Let Him meet our accuser. What does He say? He tells us that He has numbered the very hairs of our head (v. 30), that even a dying sparrow concerns Him, and that we are worth , more than many spar rows (v. 31). We are His and He is our Saviour, Friend and Brother. Let us look up and be without fear. III. Fearless In the Family Circle (vv. 34-39). Here, after all, is the acid test of dlscipleship. Christ did not come in order to stir up needless strife between members of the family, but He well knew that divisions would come as the result of true dlscipleship. Men who are ordinarily kind and cul tured in their dealings with their friends and families but who do not know Christ, can become like ver itable demons against any one in that circle who hears the call of Christ and follows Him. No human tie, no matter how In timate or precious, is to be permit ted to stand between the individual and his devotion to Christ. It it does, Christ is evidently no longer first. He is no longer Lord of all in the life, and if He is not Lord of all, He is not Lord at all. While it seems almost paradoxical to say it, Scripture teaches and ex perience demonstrates that if you keep your life for yourself and your own interests. It will die in your very hands and you will lose It. If you give your life in glad aban don to God, on the other hand, you will receive it back from Him trans formed, enriched, and glorified by His grace and blessing. , 2,000 Hunters To Take Part In Pisgah Hunt This Year ASHEV1I.LE, Dec. 29. The first 2,000 hunters making applica tion will be given hunting privi leges in the Pisgah national game preserve during a period of one month, which began ' November 27, it was announced here by H. B. Uosworth, supervisor of the Pis gah national forest. The hunt will he conducted in three-day periods during' the next four wcekis with approximately two hundred hunt ers entering the game preserve during each three days. The 19J9 national game preserve hunt was announced suddenly fol lowing approval by Secretary of Agriculture, Henry. A. Wallace. The 97,000 acre game preserve has been stocked with deer for sever al decades and has a large num ber of well populated deer herds. So ' large is the supply of deer here, according to forest officials, that it is necessary to conduct the annual hunts in an effort to reduce the size of the herds. Applications have been mailed to hunters who have participated in previous annual hunts in the pre serve and others , interested may make application direct to the reg ional national forest office in At lanta, (ki. Prospective hunters may secure application blanks from the offices of the Pisgah national for est in Ashcville. A fee of $5 will be charged each hunter and no state fee will be charged. Each hunter may take one buck,1 one doe or one bear, if he is successful during the three days' hunting allotted to him. The game preserve lias been di vided into three areas of approxi mately' equal acreage and the areas will be alternated as hunting ter ritory during the three-day periods in order that hunters may have fresh territory to hunt in each of the hunting periods. Applicants se lected for the first three-day hunt ing period will be notified by tele graph, it was announced. Hy means of the annual limits and by trapping adult deer and the rearing of' motherless fawns for transfer to other game preserves, forest officials here are endeavor ing to keep the deer population re duced to a point where the food supply in the preserve will be ade quate. Large herds of deer also, forest biologists state, tend to in duce epidemics of diseases. Hunts have been conducted on the 're serve annually for five years.xind some' 500 to 600 hundred deer and. hear have been "bagged each sea- son by hunters, totaling 1,200 to 2,(HX) each season. Hunters must he citizens of the United States or its territories or possessions and must be 21 years of 'age. Muse's Corner HOMESICKNESS The streets are crowded, The cars fly by With never a pedestrian shutting his eye. The people don't care whether Pin here or there, v Pm just another person on their thoroughfare. It's not like that in my home town, The streets are not crowded And the, cars slow down. The people, they speak with a "howdy' you do" And we're one happy family with plenty to .lo. I guess it is strange to these city folk That people get lonesome in all tbeir smoke. For they say there's movies and dances galore. Parties and picnics down on the hore. But it's not like the mountains full of fresh air Where snow blows on your face And wind tangles your hair. Smells from the forest give you a thrill Whereas there's nothing here but smoke from the mills. I'm going home, away from this place For a three-weeks' vacation Where there's plenty of space To walk in the forest, and down under the falls To visit the lake and see night quietly .fajfc These people won't miss nie, Pm one of the slew So "Highlands" keep waiting, I'm thinking of you E. C. E. CREATION As we view the wonderful creation of God, We know that we will all be laid beneath the sod. We see the sun with its wonderful heat and light, We anxiously wait for the light of the moon on a dark and dreary night. ' As we study the greatness of the earth and the wonder of the sea, We can't decide which one we had rather be. jj we see the great battle between sea and land, Tlien we are reminded of the battles of restless and sinful man. Then the cold and chill of those windy winter days; As beautiful spring and summer approaches, They stubbornly pass away. Through all the winter months no life in vegetation is seen, But soon, we all thank God, the earth is green. We scale the majestic mountain peaks, for this they are. To view the landscape near and far. 1 We watch the clouds and thirst for the rain, To grow our crops and ripen the grain. Men dig up the earth in search of iron and lead. And thousands of miners have died on a stony bed. Men go to the depths of the earth in search of silver and gold, And we. are taught that the value and love oC them are very old.. If we stand by the beautiful, busy mountain stream, V We can sec them as they hurry by to their graves in the oceans never to be . seen. When we go through the forest and 'gaze at the giant tree, We hear the small ones whispering to them, "We are as old as thee." We watch' the birds as they easily fly, With the glorious thought, we will .live in the sky. Men sow clean grain knowing there arc tares, And to keep them out will require much care. Some look at the forest As commercial wealth. I nai,;l ,!,,., : ,i '. . ..... uinis nvc in mem to regain mcir neaitn. Some people are strong while others are weak, But the beautiful life is seen in the meek. People go around the earth wisdom and knowledge to gain And many return with neither obtained. After studying the wonders of God's creative plan, We know that the climax was reached in the Redemption of Man. James L. Young.
