Army Trucks for Farm Use The fanner in critical need of a truck may apply to his county Agricultural Adjustment Agency committee for a used Army truck, the War Food Ad ministration announces. Upon the basis of applications on hand and further investigation, AAA offices prepare letters cer tifying to the needs for availa ble trucks. These letters authori ze truck dealers to negotiate with proper authorities and buy the trucks for resale to approv ed applicants. WFA warns that for some time relatively few persons who need trucks for es sential agricultural purposes will get them. Plentiful Foods For July Foods that will be plentiful In most of the country during July include: eggs; frozen vegetables; canned green and wax beans; dry-mixed and dehydrated soups; peanut butter; citrus marmalade; soya flour, grits and flakes; wheat flour and bread; macaroni; spaghetti; noodles; oatmeal and rye break fast foods.

To insure travel fa cilities for disabled military, na val and merchant miarine per sonnel, railroads may cancel passenger train service and re fuse permission of passengers other than disabled per9onel or attendants to board trains, ODT has announced. Bays $50 Bond Each Month When the War Finance Divis ion of the Treasury sent Fay McDougal, Fairmont, W. Va.t farmer, a letter urging him to buy Fifth War Loan bonds, Mr. McDougal wrote back: "Beg to reply I do not have to be asked to buy more War Bonds. I have a son in service in Italy, who is buying a $100 bond each month. I bought $675 worth of bonds last year on a salary of $1,400.65. I have averaged a $50 bond per month so far this year. I do not see where I can do better than the above average." The last day of the Fifth War Loan drive is July 8. Procedure For Selling Used Cars The newly established ceiling prices for used passenger cars and certificates of transfer on all completed sales may be ob tained from local War Price and Rationing Boards or car deal ers, the Office of Price Admin istration announces.

Great Improvement Shown In Test Farms The State Department of Ag riculture has ezpended approxi mately $100,000 during the past 12 months laying the foundation for a long-range program look ing to the adoption of agricul ture In North Carolina to the needs of the post-war world. These funds have been used for new farms in Ashe, Hay wood, and Washington counties, and for various improvements in the old farms. The Ashe farm will be used for Brown Swiss, a new type cattle which is being brought Into the state, beef cat tle, and sheep. On the Haywood farm, the Clark place on the outskirts of Waynesville will be placed dairy cows and projects to be carried out at this station will be concerned with greater milk production for the moun tain counties, with poultry, hor ticulture, and burley tobacco. The state's largest test farm Is now in Washington county, five miles east of Plymouth. This land will be used for test in hy brid corn, small grain, soy beans and lespedeza. Since 1937 many acres have been added to the old farms and many improvements made. As soon as materials are availa ble, new and modern barns and other buildings will be erected at the new farms. Work now being carried for ward on the test farms should mean a new day for agriculture in this State and in the South. SECRETS OF EARLY GRAZING EXPLAINED Some of the secrets of good winter and spring grazing are high rates of seeding, earliness of planting, and good fertiliza tion, say reports of county to the Extension Service offi cials at State College. These points are covered In reports on the pasture practices of J. D. Parker of Moore coun ty, Ralph Scott of Alamance, and John Harris of Anson.

Parker fertilized his crop with 1,500 pounds of lime, 800 pounds of superphosphate, 200 pounds of nitrate of soda, and 100 pounds of muriate of potash per acre.
