FARM NOTES -• Egg production during 1949 in creased about 4 percent over the previous year in the major pro ducing countries of the world. Continued favorable egg prices throughout most of 1949. and more abundant feed supplies at declin ing prices in almost every coun try, have encouraged poultrymen to keep more birds and increase the rate-of-lay in their flocks.

Night after loquacious night, you’ll find them huddled over red - and - white checked tablecloths, and though many a cultural door has been slammed in their faces, they remain a spirited and socnibie jot, snot t on money, perhaps, but fang on banter and bravado. Most of tlie stories spun by these continental kalzenjamrners are on the comic side; set, once in a while they come qp with a yarn which leaves a ping-pong ball in your throat. For in.*!{here's about the old jr’.entlcma freying wife who.

I Shortly alter ui||y Kuse the Nazis goo •■ stepped into Vienna anti decency went underground, a well-known surgeon and his wife, both of fiowned-tipon ancestry, were urged by friends to lake ttieir six year old son and Jeave tlie country. The surgeon refused. "Ibn need ed at Uie hospital," lie said, "and I intend to stay as Jong as I can be of use." His usefulness, boueier, came to an end a fete alln nouns later ii ben a drtaibment o/ S V men rang bis doorbell. The doctor, uho bad been teamed to rs/ml them, led bis title and son out the rear dour, but as they honied tell the street a neighbor sliotlrd them and gat e the alarm. As (lie bunted trio turned a cor ner, they came upon a small ca rousel which had been set up In a public njiiaie to celebrate the ar rival of the German "liberators,” and thinking fast, tire surgeon bought three tickets and climbed aboard with his family as the bat tered runabout started up. The child was placed astride a gaudy rebra while the parents sank way back in one of those chairs whore outsides made a swan. The State's farm income from tobacco is about five times as large as its income from cotton. WantS l-OR SALK: SCARLET SACK Plants 25 cents a dozen. Mrs. Joe Roebuck, West Main Street, Willmmston. m-HO je 1 The SS rt';en searched the square and wue about to move on v.hen the boy, to whom it was all a game, readied out, and grabbed a bras* i mg atid. turning to his parents, shouted, "Look, look! KovA I get a free ride!” Attracted by the hoy's crips, the storm troopers dragged the doctor and his wife from the carousel and were about to take the child when their leader, a youth with a hang man's sense of humor, stopped them. "The kid got the brass ring,” i he said, "lie’s entitled to a fie* ■ i ide.” As the carousel started up again. the tinny strains of "Chirr hiri him" drowned out l/si toothers screams, and the last the son pie saw o\ their son he scat tiding on the Merry-go-round. The surgeon was too valuable a commodity to kill right oil, and to 1 was his wife, a skilled nurse. They vveie sent to a slave labor camp to tend those prisoners considered too healthy for the ovens, and when the Allies marched into the camp in 11145. the couple were still alive. By this time, however, the surgeon's brain was a bit misty, but friends in New York paid his passage, and he and his wife were among the lucky ones who got by the immigra- j lion quota. Ever since, the pair has been spending most of their summer days in the vicinity of the Central park carousel. The old boy is pretty much off his trolley, but hia wife continues to humor him, and when ever lie gels agitated and mutters, “Where’s Otto? I saw him on the /ebiu a minute ago," she patiently takes him by the hand and says, “Come along, dear, maybe he got tfied and went horn*." American business men are facing 1950 with optimism.
