A. Smoked hams have several advantages, especially if the hams are to be sold. They have a more uniform color and a more desir able appearance. Smoking reduces the danger of insect damage, but It does not keep them out com pletely. Pat does not become ran cid as quickly in smoked meat. Smoking reduces moisture content and gives the meat a smoked flavor, especially where the age ing period is quite short. Q. How can I provide supple mentary winter grazing? A. Seed double the small grain for grain seeding rate plus 15 to 20 pounds crimson clover before the end of September and cross drill. Apply 300 to 500 pounds 6-8-6 or 5-10-5 and top dress with 16 to 32 pounds nitrogen in No vember and February. Cut the surplus for hay or silage If it is not needed for spring grazing.

Garden Time . . . By ROBERT SCHMIDT With the coming of the fall season, we begin to think of lawns and lawn grasses for both tempor ary winter lawns and for perma nent ones. In most of North Caro lina the fall months are the best time of the year to build perma nent lawns because the young grasses have a chance to become well established before next sum mer's heat and dry weather. If you are Interested In building a new lawn this fall ask your coun ty agent for John Harris' exten sion circular on "Carolina Lawns". In our mountain areas a good lawn can be established easily and maintained by using Ken tucky bluegrass or Merlon blue grass. In Piedmont and Eastern North Carolina It Is much more difficult to maintain a good lawn because of the long hot summers. There are a number of good grasses available for these areas including the bluegrasses. the strains of Zoysla grass. Centipede, Tall Fescue, and Bermuda. The bluegrasses and Tall Fescue will remain green during the winter. Zoysla, Centipede, and Bermuda should be planted in late spring, not in the fall. Roots are common ly used to start all three of these grasses; however, the seeds are available for Centipede and Ber muda. I should like to say a few words about winter lawns. Most estab lished lawns in the estern portion of this state are of Bermuda grass, crabgrass. Dallas grass, bluegrass or a mixture of these and others. All except bluegrass will turn brown at the first hard frost. We are blessed with mild winters over most of the state, and it is very desirable to keep our lawns green the year round. This Is possible by sowing Italian ryegrass In the established sod during late Sepembpr or early Ocober. If your permanent sod is heavy it may require five pounds of ryegrass seed per 1,000 square Phone 23 For Electrical And Plumbing Repairs Phone 23 feet of lawn. If the sod Is not heavy, two to three pounds per 1,000 square feet should be suffi cients Italian ryegrass is an an nual and will die out next June. By that time the permanent grasses should take over again. Since bluegrass remains fairly green in winter, it is not recom mended that ryegrass be planted in a good bluegrass lawn. The spring growth of ryegrass is often very heavy and may kill out the bluegrass. In order to give a good dark green color to the ryegrass. It should be fertilized before planting. About two pounds of an 8-8-8 or other good garden fer tilizer per 100 square feet of lawn should give good results. Why Take The Beauty Out Of Religion? One of the strangest results of the Reforma tion was the removal from religious observance of all the beauty, all the ceremony, which from time immemorial had accompanied man's wor ship of his Creator. The early history of Christianity and die history of architecture and art are closely tied together. Architectural styles, the great art treasures of the past, much of the great music, some of the world's great literature are a result of man's striving to express his love and wor ship of God in things of beauty. And that's the reason for the liturgy, or ritual, used in certain churches ? our own Epis copal Church, for example. It is an attempt, as old as the Church, to translate into terms of beauty of action our adoration of God. And when that liturgy is written down as it is in our Book of Common Prayer, and put in the hands of all the mem bers of the church, it gives the entire congre gation the opportunity to join in the service and actually take part. Attend 3 times and SEE! We believe that you, like us, will find the liturgy of the Episcopal Church helpful in inr creasing your feeling of "being in church". Why not try it?
