Uncle Sam Takes Care
Of The Army's Feet
The greatest men's furnishing
shop in the world, the' Quarter
master Corps of the United States
Army, adds to the old cliche,
clothes make a man. Army clothes
make the 1941 soldier healthy and
happy.
Beginning with his feet, the
Quartermaster gives the soldier a
wardrobe which the majority never
dreamed of having in civilian life.
Boots ? Yes. Leather boots for
the cavalry, rubber hip boots, rub
ber knee boots, shoe pacs or heavy
waterproof work boots, arctic over
shoes or galoshes with cloth or
rubber tops, and snow shoes. Alas
kan troops are issued waterproof
walrus skin boots.
Shoes bought by the Quarter
master Corps are designed for pro
tection against the elements and
for comfort. A soldier with pinch
ing shoe is no good on extended
marchesor in drills, or on maneu
The Quartermaster makes sure
the soldiers in the eight south
eastern states, are foot-happy. Each
soldier is immediately issued three
pairs of shoes on entering the
army. Shoes that have been tested
for long, hard wear.
Service shoes, are worn on the
firing ranges, in the field, when
ever the business of soldiering be
comes tough.
Around camp and on leave' the
soldiers wear the service shoes they
have saved for dress the shoes
that are .shined brightly for in
spections. ;
To keep the soles in good shape,
even o,n maneuvers, the shoe shops
are constantly in operation. When
the troop are on the move, so is
the shoe shop, in a unit on wheels.
Taking care of the army's feet
is of prime importance. But the
matter of shirts, pants, socks and
underwear is considered just -as
carefully a,nd handled just as ably
by the fourth Corps Area, which
now has within its borders one
third of the army in the contin
ental United States.
This summer the troops are
wearing cotton khaki shirts; ties
and slacks, and field caps. On
heavy duty they wear blue dentim
or herringbone twill. When winter
comes, in addition to a woolen coat
and overcoat, the soldiers will also
get woolen slacks, shirts and caps
if the weather is extremely severe.
And finally, but of significances.
is the style of the uniforms. These
wearable clothes: are well cut an
trim. The Quartermaster has made
our army not only the most com
fortable, but also the best dressed
of any in the world.
State College Answers
Timely Farm Questions
Q. Is poultry expansion advisable
during the present period,
A. C; F. Parrish, extension poul
try ; specialist, says North Carolina
poultrymen may expand their fjocks
if they do it safely and sanely, not
attempting to "bite ofif more than
they can chew". Before new con
struction begins, empty houses
should be pressed" into service
and suitable outbuildings con
verted into poultry houses. Parrish
also urges greater efficiency from
present flocks through better feed
ing and management practices.
Q. When should temporary wint
er grazing crops be seeded?
A. For best results, temporary
grazing crops for this winter and
next spring should ke seeded dur
ing September or the early part
of October. Farmers have found
a mixture of Italian rye grass and
green crimson clover to be a good
mixture. Recommended rate of
seeding is 25 pounds of the rye
grass and 15 pounds of the clover
per acre. Another good combination
is three bushels of rye or two
bushels of wheat, 15 pounds of
crimson clover, and 15 pounds of
Italian rye grass.
Q. What is a good fattening ra
tion for bogs.
A. E. V. Vestal, extension swine
specialist, says corn is too expen
sive to be fed alone, so it should
be supplemented with a mixture
of tfishmeal or tankage and cotton
seed meal. The proteins should be
mixed in equal proportions by
weight. One hundred pounds of
the fish meal cottonseed meal
combination will save about 12
bushels of corn if the self-feeder
method of fattening the hogs is
used.

seventh and eighth graders have
come out of the stupor of the first
few weeks, and are now running
up and down the steps knocking
everyone out of their way in the.
usual way of freshmen. Another
sure sign is the sophisticated way
in which the juniors, who are tak
ing their first year of foreign lan
guage, are lording it over the stu
dents in the lower classes. If you
are still not convinced, come over
and see the way the seniors are
strutting.

Ramsey. 'A ring committee was also
elected to negotiate with company
representatives for. the purchase of
their class rings; Bobby Carpenter
and Kate Sanrers, the Student
Council representatives of the
group, were chosen also.
The class flower, colors, ' and
motto are respectively: dogwood,
red and white, and "Tonight we
launch, where shall we anchor?"
The president appointed a com
mittee to study plans for raising
money ' for the purchase of the
gift.which the. senior class will pre
sent to the school at commence

after the signing of the class song,
"God Bless America," by the 53
seniors present.
The other classes are expected
