Expert Declares Farm Prices May Drop Lower Farmers will have to keep a close eye on all of their operations this year if they expect to maintain their net income at present levels, says T. K. Jones, farm manage ment analyst at Slate College. Continued high production costs and declining prices for agricultur al products are in store for 1949, Jones says. Lower net income will mean that farm families will be forced to accept lower standards of living. If families are to avoid this reduction in living standards, they must develop plans to cush ion the effect of falling farm prlees. Most farmers have the alterna tive of increasing the efficiency of present enterprises or adding sup be fitted into present farming sys tems, according to the analyst, He points out that efficiency can be increased by the use of recommended practices on all enterprises. Many farmers ' use recommended practices on the main crop, such as tobaccp, but plementary enterprises which can neglect other enterprises and fail to operate them in such a way as to obtain a profit. On many farms, says Jones, a fuller use of the resources of land, labor, and capital could be obtain ed by adding other enterprises. The choice of the kind of supple mentary enterprises to add will be governed by market demand and available resources. Increasing livestock enterprises offers a good opportunity for mak ing adiustments in view nf the present favorable feed price rela tionships. The long-time program for a sound North Carolina agri culture is based on Increasing the production of livestock and live stock products in the State. By ELISE DE LOZIER Assistant Home Demonstration Agent Speaking as Assistant Home Agent and relating Community De velopment and Home Demonstra tion, this is what 1 would like to say. In the Home Demonstration clubs during 1949 we have been Studying how to be better citizens and have taken as our theme for this year Today's Home Builds Tomorrow's World. I believe we as Home Demonstration members of Haywood county are going to have the opportunity to be even better citizens of our communities and our county . . . through the new project that is being set up in our communities. Our communities will only be as fine as in our courage we will make them fine; and by our cour age Ihe communities can be chang ed into the kind of communities we want them to be. For we build communities, as we build our lives, by dreams and by ideals and by daily work. For nearly all of us Hints For Farm Home Makers By RUTH CURRENT state Home Demonstration Agent Lyesight is precious how well we know! One way to guard this precious treasure is to have ade quate light where we need it r-very place where reading, sew ing, and other close-seeing jobs are done should be illuminated by a good lamp with the proper size bulb. By armchair, at study table, by the piano and the sewing ma chine are places that need plenty of light. The following suggestions will help you select the right lamp for the right place in- your home; 1. Choose a study lamp tor jun ior size floor lamp) that is tall enough and with a shade broad enough to spread a wide circle of useful light allowing one to sit up comfortably while reading. 2. Be sure the lamp has a dif fusing (reflector) bowl under the shade to reduce glare and soften Hhe light. 3. Choose floor and study lamps designed to use the three-light bulbs which allow for wider se lection of lighting needed for var ious activities. 4. Select shades broad at the bottom, deep enough to conceal the diffusing bowl and with a white lining to reflect the Jight. A white or ivory shade provides about 50 per cent more light than a dark one which absorbs light. 5. Select shades that harmonize one with the other, where two or more lamps are used in the same room. Plain shades are always good.

Why watt any longer to enjoy the easier washing, advan tage of a Maytag? Come in today for a demonstration. A good way to use old soap scraps is to grate them into chips on a household grater, or if very dry, but them through a food chop per. Or they may be placed In- water in a jar and in no time a bottle of liquid soap useful for a number of purposes will have been collected. Toilet soap scraps should be kept in one container and used for shampooing or washing lin gerie, while kitchen soaps are kept in another. A very cold egg just out of the refrigerator is more likely to crack when put in hot water than an egg which is warmed to room temperature. To keep shells whole in hard-cooking or soft-cooking eggs, home economists of the Unit ed States Department of Agricul ture suggest removing eggs from the refrigerator a half hour or so before cooking to take the chill off. Garden peas just at the right stage for eating and canning, will be sweeter if picked in the morn ing than at the end of the day, according to the horticulturists. To hold the sweetness, the peas must be kept in a cold place after picking until canned or put in a freezer locker. "ELECTRIC CO. Main Street Shoes with high heels and floppy-soled slippers may "up" the morning morale, but may also let you down down the stairs the quick way. And the increase in nerve strain and fatigue on the wearer of shoes with little support has been known to indirectly cause accidents. Since nearly half of the home facilities are due to falls, safe shoes should be essential in every wardrobe. Shoes needing soles re paired, heels built up, or new shoe laces are apt to cause falls. Wed gies provide less sure grip on rugs and stairs than do shoes designated with a low heel, a good arch, and nonskld soles. Safety pins, that might open un der the touch of a youngster's fin gers, were never Intended tor dress fasteners. Regular care of your clothes wiU prevent tie need for c ourage, Adventure, Beauty, will only come to us where we live. Here or nowhere else on earth shall we find them. This new program of community development isn't something that will interfere with or lessen the importance of our work as Home Demonstration clubs but rather it should be a force that will strength en us .. . and to Home Demon stration members especially, since you have more of an insight of what the community program is about so much more than so many of the people of the county, this program of trying to make our homes better, our communilies bet ter, our county better, and even tually our world a better place to live in. I'm wondering, if on the morning of the beginning of our new program, should this not be a real challenge especially to us lor here is an opportunity right at our handclasp for us to become better community, county and world citizens.
