THURSDAY, SEPT. 3, 1942 THE FRANKLIN PRESS ANOTHE HIGHLANDS MACONIAJN Page seveM Macon H. D. Women Quoted In Thrift - Article In a recent article urging thrift in home management, Pauline Gordon of the State College ex tension department, urges farm women to save seeds, make soap, take care of screens and keep records.' She quotes two members of the Macon County Home Dem onstration clubs in the article, from which we make the follow ing excerpts: Homemade Soap Mrs. Fred Painter of Cullasaja home demonstration club of Ma con county reported at a recent club meeting that she had made enough soap for .a year's supply at the cost of 40 cents. Soap is we of the household necessities that should now be used economically. The thrifty honiemaker will find that it pays to unwrap soap so that it w.ll dry out. Drying removes water and the soap hardens and lasts longer. Small ends of soap, should be saved until there are enough to make it worthwhile to grind it into a soap powder. A soap jelly cain be made also.' The amount of soap used by an ia.verage rural family is esti mated to be about twelve dollars worth a year. In farm homes where there is a surplus of ran cid fat, fat scraps, or tallow, a good homemade soap may be made economically. ' Homemade soap is excellent for laundering.

Farm People And Taxes The revenue acts of 1941 low ered personal exemptions, thus increasing the number of rural families subject to income tax. Taxes are necessary for finan: ing the war. Farm families keep ing a record of their income and expenditures will find it a great help in making their tax returns. Incomes may be more easily cal culated than expenditures. .Mrs. Jim Gray of Hickory Knoll, Macon county, recommends record keeping, because accord ing to Mrs. Gray, "I dom't have to wonder where our income has gone. Every Saturday night is the time we set aside for record keeping. If we have company, I never fail to go ahead with my books after they leave. I used to ask myself 'What did I do with that $2 I had?' Now I know what I did with it as well as the rest of .our income. RALEIGH, N.
