This money was raised with the combined efforts and .co operation of Macon County club members and 4-H neighborhood leaders. Seven hundred dollars will be used to build the Macon Coun ty cabin at the new 4-H camp, which will be constructed near the state test farm in Hay wood county. Most of the pres ent club members have never had the opportunity to atter.ri a 4-H camp, and therefore they were anxious to rai.se this mo ney. The remainder of the money will be kept in the treas ury for use in other ways that the council may decide upon. When the county project was begun, during the latter part of March, it was decided that a quota of $1.10 per member would be set for each club. Th:s "dollar and dime" slogan proved to be successful through out the campaign. Burning town club, next to the smallest in the county, with an enrollment of 23 members, 3et the pace by filling its quota in March. As soon as they heard about the prospective new camp, these club members met with their neighborhood leader, Mrs. Robert Parrish, and plan ned a box supper, at which they raised their share of the $700 During April, May, and June the 11 other clubs in the coun ty followed with more box sup pers and cake walks, one bunco party, a high school play, a sponsored radio show and a sponsored movie. The Cartooge chaye club served lunch for the Woman's Society for Christian Service, and a number of clubs sold boxes of gift cards. The Higdonville club filled part of its quota by donations from people who live in that com munity. It was not possible for all the clubs to fill the quota that had been set, but the Holly Springs iClub contributed $1.70 per mem ber and the Cartoogechaye club $1.38 instead of $1 10. In July the remainder of the mo ney was raised when club mem bers throughout the county con tributed food and their time and sold plate lunches and sandwiches at the Farmers' Fed eration picnic. A total of $91.58 State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By RUTH CURRENT N. C. State College Many women like to wash the cooking utensils first, thus clear ing away the clutter of assorted pots, pans, spoons, and forks befor? starting the dishes. How ever, when the usual order of dish washing is followed, the cooking things are washed last. When necessary, extra soap and hot water should be added to the dishpan for this last oper ation. When you wash dishes, pots, and pans, keep the water clean by frequent changes. When pans are soaked, they are usually easy to wash, but when food is permitted to dry and harden on them, washing is a problem. Make it part of your routine to fiJl pots and pans with clear water immedi ately after using. To wash pans properly, first discard the soaking water, at the same time removing the loosened bits of food. A rubber scraper is very useful here Wash Inside and out with hot soapy water. Use scouring pow der or metal cleaner to remove burned and crusted foods. Rinse thoroughly. Dry. Be especially careful not to put tin or iron pans away damp. They will rust if they are damp. Dark stains on aluminum pans, if not too well establish ed, can be removed with vine gar water. Fill pan with equal parts of vinegar and water. Bring to a boil. Do not try to remove this kind of stain with soap and soda, as it may only be deepened. Never soak alum inum pans in suds. was made from this county 4-H project. It would not have been pos sible for this $777 to be raised by these boys and girls, had it not been for the encouragement, assistance, and planning of 4-H neighborhood leaders. The 4-H members are proud to have in their communities these adults who made it possible for them to raise this sum, which at first seemed impossible.
