On June 13, 1945. the message came that he had been killed in action on Ryukyu Island while on special mission June 8. Later a letter was received from Major Beasler In whose squadron Lieut. White was serving, giving full details of the tragedy, and stated that while on a mission Lieut. White was shot down by enemy anti-aircraft gun. No further information was ; given, and his parents had dis paired of hope that his body would be found and returned for burial. H had been listed along with several diner Canton meu. as I missing, and his name has been inscribed on the marker in the! Memorial plot, recently set up by th local VFW post, as missing. The letter received by Mr. and Mrs. White a few days ago, states in part: "A report has been received that a body previously buried as 'Un known' in the U. S.

"Your son s remains were re covered from an isolated grave on Iriomote Shima in the immediate vicinity where he lost his life on June 8, 1945. The grave was marked in Japanese writing as fol lows: 'This is a monument of an American Airplane Soldier, 8 June 1945." The application blank accom panying the letter, has been re turned by Mr and Mrs. White, re questing that the body be returned to them for re-burial here. Soon after Lieut. White lost his life, news was received that his younger brother. Charles White of the U. S. navy, had died of disease in a hospital in England. Hfs body also will be sent back for re-burial.

Answer: Earl Brintnall, Catawba County agent, received this query from a farmer, and here is his an swer; "A little figuring might help out in this matter. It will require about 115 to 120 ears of hybrid corn to produce a bushel of corn. If you plant your corn in 3Vi-foot rows, you will have to space it about 15 inches in the row in order to get 10,000 stalks to the acre. These 10,000 stalks should furnish you with enough ears to make 100 bushels or more." Question: How can I maintain high quality in summer-time eggs? Answer: Follow good manage ment practices from nest to mar ket. Produce infertile eggs. Gather eggs quickly, at least twice a day, and put them in a cool place. On the farm a well-ventilated, cool cellar is a good place to store them. Pack them in egg cases as soon as they are cool, and market them quickly, at least twice a week. A wire basket is a good container to gather eggs in if quantity is large. Store the home supply in the re frigerator. When taking eggs to market, keep them in the shade. The potato is a native of South America and was found in North America as early as the 16th century. For Father's Day . Sunday You Will Find al Many Lovu i . mat Jrather Will WearApp, Anil IV ..
