State College Hints
For Farm Homemakers
By RUTH CURRENT
(N. C. State College)
Here are four first-aid rules for
saving vitamins in food: (1) Don't
erush or bruise; (2) don't soak;
(3) keep cold until ready to cook
ot eat; and (4) use quickly when
prepared.
Vitamin C gets away faster from
foods peeled or cut, so make raw
salad or slaw as a last -minute job.
Cook quickly whenever you can.
Put vegetables into boiling water,
and bring the water back to boil
ing point fait. Cook vegetables
until just tender but no longer.
Stir vegetables only when you
must. If you stir you mix air into
the food and that destroys some
of the vitamins. Do not add soda
when you cook green vegetables.
The soda destroys thiamine and
vitamin C.
We must prevent farm Tires and
here's how to check your hazards
Let every member of the family
help make ap inspection and ans
wer thase questions: Can chimneys
be examined from the attic? Are
chimneys free from cracks and
lose bricks?
Are birds nests or leaves re
moved from roofs and around
eaves regularly ?
Do all wood and coal stoves
stand on a metal floor-covering
extending at least 18 inches in
front of the stove door? When
stove-pipes rust out, are they re
placed with safe pipes? Is the oil
stove kept clean and properly
adjusted ? Do you use a metal con
tainer for taking out hot ashes ?
Do you keep closets, attics, and
storerooms clean and free from
rubbish and papers which would
feed a fire? Are oily mops, dust
and polish rags kept in metal con
tainers to prevent spontaneous
fires ?
PORK
Canned, cured, and frozen pork
is the largest single tood item
listed by the Government in its
lease-lend deliveries to the United
Nations, nearly a billion pounds

The right to govern ourselves
B'
RAVE AND DETERMINED Americans
left bloody footprints in the snow at Val
ley Force, to give us the priceless right to run
our country as the majority of us think it
should be run.
Today, equally resolute and courageous
Americans are fighting to preserve that hard
won heritage for themselves and for their
children. They know that in the Axis nations
people are mere puppets bowing to the brutal
whims of fanatical dictators.
That's why Americans are fighting. And, as
they fight on to certain Victory, they are in
spired by an unshakable determination that
this government shall continue to be "of the
people, by the people, and for the people."
The Southern Railway System, because of its
strategic location, is playing a tremendously
vital role in the transportation of war materials
and fighting men. But it is doing more than
that. It is also helping to keep the wheels of
our national life rolling in defense of the home
front. It is grimly but willingly taking on bur
den after burden because it's a rich privilege
to serve the nation in times like these.
When private automobile travel began to be
curtailed by tire and gasoline rationing the
kind of travel that normally accounts for more
than four-fifths of all inter-city travel the
railroads took on the thankless job of provid
ing substitute transportation. That meant more
trains, more cars per train, more locomotives,
crowded stations, and a thousand headaches!
But the job is being done on top of the major
task of handling hundreds of thousands of
Uncle Sam's soldiers, sailors and marines.
When the oil shortage developed in the
eastern states, the railroads said that they could
move 200,000 barrels a day to meet the emer
gency. They are now moving more than
800,000 barrels a day. In the first eight months
of this year, the Southern Railway System alone
handled more than 19,000,000 barrels of oil to
the North and East.
These are simply examples of how one rail
road is doing its bit to protect our way of life;
our heritage of freedom; our right to govern
ourselves.
From this experience, a better Southern Rail
way System will emerge more efficient and
more useful to the people it serves than ever
before because, even during these trying
times, we are taking advantage of every oppor
tunity to improve our services, facilities and
methods; every opportunity to plan for a better
tomorrow when Americans will continue to
hold their heads high as free men, proud in the
knowledge that their children, too, will enjoy
the blessings inherent in a nation of self-governing
people.
That is worth fighting for!
President.
