Slaughter Controls Suspended Controls over how much live stock can be slaughtered and where the meat may be shipped have been suspended by OPA, it was announced by Chairman of the War Price and Rationing Board. This action was taken on the recommendation of Secretary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson, and meat rationing is not af fected, he added. He said that there has been "marked improvement" In the civilian meat supply during re cent months but that it is still not sufficient to assure the best distribution without the help of rationing controls. Gas T>o Cost Less Gasoline and fuel oil will cost less at retail in the eastern sea board area effective at once it was disclosed. The reduction in retail gaso line ceilings will be 1.2 cents a gallon throughout the 17 states with the following exceptions: In Florida east of the Apala chicola River and Georgia, where the reduction will be 6/10 of a cent a gallon. The reductions represent, in general, the increases in ceil ings granted during the war period to help defray the extra cost of transportating petroleum products to the eastern seaboard area, when normal tanker trans portation had to be abandoned. State College Mints To Farm Homemakers By Kuth Current N. C. State College Who is an "Intelligent buy er?" An intelligent buyer is one who gets the best possible val ue in goods or services for every dollar spent. This is bas ed, first of all, on planning ? planning for wise spending in all the departments that make a home a ' going concern. He can "make or do without" when It comes to household equipment and clothing, but man must eat ? and women, too ? and meals of the right kind are the basis of health. Buy by the pound whenever you can instead of by the dime's or quarter's worth, or by the basket. Always watch the scales to make sure you get all you pay for. Remember brown shell eggs are just as good as white ones, and vice versa. The color of the shell has nothing to do with the food value of the egg in side. The twenty-fifth anniversary celebration of the North Caro lina Federation of Home Dem onstration Clubs at State Col lege revealed that rural women have taken a leading part in all progressive movements in the state In recent years.

Features "Old North State" The Seaboard Air Line Rail way is currently featuring the State of North Carolina on its dining car menus. A beautiful color etching of the Capitol at Raleigh illustrates the front cover, while a brief history of early and romantic days in the Old North States appears on the back. This record of colon ial pagentry reads in part as follows: "When the Great Armada had been destroyed, relief was dis patched to the Carolina Coast. By August 9, 1591, the fleet reached Roanoke Island. Soli tude only was there. On the trunk of a giant tree was cut a single word ? CROATAN. There was no other trace of that lost colony and the world today is ignorant as to what calamity befell the hapless company. "Permanent settlement began irt 1658 and so well did those Carolinians build their com merce and culture, their basic unity of purpose, that In 1774 Washington merchants were em boldered to dump boat loads of highly taxed tea into the Cape Fear River. On May 20, 1775, a group of distinguished men convened at Charlotte and adopted "The Mecklenburg Re serve". Boldiog declaring, 'We the citizens 1 of Mecklenburg County do hereby absolve our' selves from all allegiance to the British Crown', this famed doc ument was in reality the first Decoration Of Independence. "Seven years after Yorktown, North Carolina joined the Un ion. Since that long ago day in 1788, she has steadily moved to the fore. North Carolina's future holds promise fairer than her stirring past ? her splendid present." The menu is one of a series advertising the six Southeast ern states served by the Sea board.

PLANTING BY AIR Observing nature's method of seeding, by bird and animal droppings, an Inventor from California, Dr. Lytle S. Adams, of San Diego, is working out plans for planting by air. Bird droppings have the advantage of surrounding any seeds with fertilizer so that the small seedling when it starts is en couraged and nourished by this fertilizer.

He was sweating over his lawn mower the other day, when somebody shows him pic tures of a mower that runs un der its own power. "Shucks," says Will, MI like a lawn mower that gives you some backtalk and exercise. It gets the old blood circulating and works op a wonderful thirst. "Then," Will adds with zest, "there's nothing in the whole world that tastes as good as r. cheerful glass of. beer!" From where I sit, there's a lot of good sense In what Will says. A little honest effort never hurt anybody. And there should be more to our post-war plans than how to make life comfortable and easy.
