(International Soundphoto) 1948 EXPECTED TO BE A PROSPEROUS YEAR North Carolina farmers can look forward to^ a prosperous year in 1948, according to Dr. G. W. Fors ter, head of the Agricultural Eco nomics department at State Col lege, who said the national econ omy is in a highly satisfactory con dition, and the immediate future is bright. This means, he believes, that ag ricultural conditions, with a few possible exceptions, will also be | satisfactory. Explaining his reasoning behind such a prediction, Dr. Forster says 1 that farm prosperity depends, al most directly on the conditions of the national-economy. Therefore, a close relationship exists between the prosperity of farming in North Carolina and America's industrial activity. As Dr. Forster sees it, this in dustrial activity will remain high during the next several years, and as a consequence, the agricultural income of this state will remain in a favorable position. If You Fish Interstate On Chatuge Lake You Must Ha^e Two Licenses RALEIGH, June 23?North Car JL % olina and Georgia have cancelled an agreement under' Which fisher men licensed by either state were permitted to cross the North Caro lina-Georgia border when fishing in Lake Chatuge, 7.000-acre TVA reservoir which lies athwart the line between the states. From! now on, the state line is the stopping point for anglers who are' licensed by only one of the tates. A fisherman who wants to try both sides must hold . both North Carolina and Georgia li censes. Georgia has placed in Chatuge a buoy marking the di viding lin?. Both the start and end of the agreement came at Georgia's re quest. It was worked out in March, 1943, between the North Carolina Division of Game and Inland Fish eries and the .Georgia Game and Fish Commission, which have jur isdiction over fishing in Chatuge since, as a TVA impoundment, the i reservoir is public waters. Georgia i cancelled the agreement under a l "90-dny notice" clause which could be invoked by either state. Under the agreement. North Carolina licensed fishermen were permitted to go across the line as far as a point opposite Hiwassee, | ba.; Georgia licensees could come into North Carolina up to the Shooting Creek arm of the lake above the reservoir dam. ? Cancellation of the agreement is regarded by fishermen as a loss to Georgians, because the North Carolina portion offers the best fishing in Chatuge, which provides largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, and bluegill bream. At spill\vay level the lake is fairly evenly divided between the states, but during the summer low-water period, most of the water is on the North Carolina side. 1 Barley makes first class hay. but I requires fertile soil, good drainage,' and a fairly plentiful supply of lime. Always use a beardless va- : riety for hay. ? : STATE COLLEGE HINTS' TO FARM HOMEMAKER By VERNA PTANTON Assistant State Agent AspargUf in season ' brings its own cooking problem of giving i delicate tipxs and firm stalks their i due share of heat, and no more. This springtime favoTite deserves j a better fate than to lose flavor, | color, 6nd vitamin C by overcook ing. i ' j Home economists of the U. S. ! Department Qf Agriculture give the j following directions for cooking \ asparagus to qonserve its goodness. ; To prepare asparagus, trim off any tough ends. Remove scales along the stalk th&t hold grit. Wash stalks thoroughly. Too cook whole stalks: Tie stalks i together loosely. Stand them up right in a saucepan or kettle in enough boiling, salted water to j co'me about a third of the way up J the stalks. Cover and cook 10 to , 25 minutes, or until asparagus is i just tender. If the pan is not deep enough, another ptn may be in verted over it for a tall cover, so that tips may cook in steam. To cook eut-up pieces: Cut as paragus into 2-inch length. Drop the lower-stalk pieces into a small quantity of boiling, salted water. Cover and cook 5 to 10 minutes. % Then add tips and continue cook ing until the pieces are tender. Very fresh young asparagus may be ready in 10 minutes after cook ing begins; less tender stalks may need 20 to 25 minutes. Many people like asparagus best served in the simplest way?: fresh ly cooked and seasoned with melt ed table fat or strips of crisp bacon, or chilled to make a salad with lettuce and dressing. For variety, serve asparagus on toast-or in pat ty shells with cream sauce, cheese sauce or hollandaise; in asparagus omelet or crfcam or asparagus soup asparagus scalloped with spaghetti or potato and hard-cooked egg. The water in which asparagus cooked holds flavor, vitamins and minerals and deserves use as part of the liquid in creamed soup or sauce. The tough ends trimmed oft are good additions to the soup pot. Head for Profit?Use for Results HERALD WANT ADS ' Food Preservation Is Theme Of The Week Home Food Preservation Week will be observed June 22-28, ac cording to announcement from Miss Ruby Scliolz, food conserva tion specialist for the State College Extension Service. This week has been set aside to focus the attention of home-mak ers on the value of home food pres ervation and to encourage im provement of the nutritive value and variety of meals they serve. The present outlook points to an abundant supply of home and commercially grown fruits and vegetables for home and communi ty canning centers, Miss Scholz said, adding that the supplies not needed for present consumption should be preserved for use in the winter months when fresh produce will be less plentiful and normally higher in price. "This should be an important week to thousands of North Caro lina homemakers," the specialist declared, "because food supplies become too low in many homes during the winter months to pro vide well balanced meals.
