Sanders, Sunday, Highway Transportation Survey To Be Made All farmers and others who own trucks are to be asked to help the War Department im its transporta tion planning for national defense, reports John W. Goodman,, assis tant director of the State college extension service. M. L. Wilson, director of Extension work for the U. S. Department of Agriculture, has asekd the cooperation of all State Extension Services in the survey to be made. Each truck owner will receive in the .next few days a special National Defense inventory card, Goodman explained. He will be re quested to return the card (postage free) with information regarding the make of his truck, ; kind of body, capacity, ; time of ' the year the vehicle is most urgently needed in the owner's business, and wheth er in an emergency he would be willing to hire or lease it to a Government agency. The purpose in collecting these records, Goodman said, is more effective planning of highway transportation in the assembly of defense-industry materials, delivery of military and civilian supplies, relief of dock and terminal con gestion, and movement of. passen ger traffic in emergencies. ."England was forced, in the midst of the war, to make an in ventory similar to the one the' United States is now about to begin," the Extension leader de clared, and he added: "I am sure the farmers of North Carolina will' cooperate in this scyey since it seems vital to the preparedness of our country for any wartime em ergency that might arise." The North Carolina Highway Traffic Advisory Committee of the War Department will send out the inventory cards. A similar survey will be made of buses.

What, is the minimum .size of U. S. No. 1 potatoes? A, The answer to this questidn, as given by HrRNiswonger, ex tensior horticulturistrWsI. C. State college, is: The diameter of a U. S. No. 1 Irish potato shall be not less than 1 78 inches, and the diameter of a U. S. No. 1 sweet potato shall be not less than 1 34 inches. Also, a sweet potato must not be more than 10 inches in length to meet the No. 1 grade requirement. . Q, What varieties of small grain show resistance to smut diseases? A. Through demonstration's Con ducted by North arolina farmers, in cooperation with their county agents, it has been found that Leaps 157 wheat; Victorgrain, Stanton, Fullgrain 4, and Leetoria oats; and Iredell and Bearded 15 varieties of barley, are at least partially resistant to smut. Howard R. Garriss, extension plant patho logist, says' , the 5 . per cent ethyl mercury phosphate (New Improved Ceresan) is effective in controlling bunt and smut of wheat, and loose smut of oats. Q. What is the best equipment for harvesting lespedeza seed und er present conditions in North Car olina? A. Much of the lespedeza ini the state this year made only fair growth because of abnormal weath er conditions. Prof. G'. W. Giles of the State , college; agricultural Engineering department, says the simple, inexpensive seed pan at tached to a mowing machine will do a good job under present con ditions. He recommends that the low cut bar, commonly called a "lespedeza bar," be used. It will cut the stalks close to the ground, and since the - cutting actioji is. rapid, the plants will not be dis turbed very much, thereby elimin ating some of the shattering of the dry seed pods. Uncle Sam To Visit Every Farmer In State The man with the stove-pipe hat and the vhite whiskersT known to Americans as "Uncle Sam" will visit every farmer in North Caro lina between now and about De cember 1. He will drop around to ask each farmer how much food and feed he can,' and will, produce to help "Win the War and Write the Peace." All of which means, according to . Dean I. O. Schaub, director of the N. C. State college extension service, that the "Food for Free dom" campaign, recently started on a Nation-wide basis, is aggressive ly under way in North Carolina. Every farm family will be asked to participate, and to increase pro duction in 1941 to help feed defense forces at home and abroad. Dean Schaub explained that "Uncle Sain" will be represented on the tour of farm visits by AAA committeemen other farmers who probably will wear overalls and straw hats in many instances, in stead of the red, white and blue costume of the legendary National hero. . The details of the house-to-house canvas, by means of which the food and feed production drive will be conducted, are being work ed out at regional county and community meetings of agricultural I and rural welfare leaders. The Tripfe-A committeemen, who are the elected leaders of the farm ers, will obtain the pledges .neces-: sary to meet the county goals of more food and feed next .year. Regional educational and train ing meetings are scheduled Mon day, October 20, at Elizabeth City. Clinton, Raleigh, Lexington, and Waynesville, and on Tuesday, Oc tober 21, at New Bern, Henderson, Rockingham, Shelby and Wilkes boro. County and community meet ings will follow as soon thereafter as they can be arranged. JOIN! JOIN! JOIN BRYANT BURIAL ASSOCIATION Only costs a few pennies a month to protect the whole family.
