To Home Movers
Bright red paint -can be' put to
many useful purposes around the
home, as an old to safety and con
venience of the family. Because red
is one of the most eye-catehing
colors, It is useful as a warning.
For example, containers of poi
sonous materials may well , have
a cost of red paint as a distinguish
ing mark.
Red may also help In emergen
cies. The pail of sand which many
wise families keep on hand for fire
control will be easier to locate If
painted red, and the out-door fau
cets to which a hose must be con
nected In a hurry.
Finally, red paint on handles of
small garden toolsAvill help prevent
losing or mislaying them.

All plants need considerable ni-
trogen and bone meal contains very
little.

our vegetables determine their vi
tamin content?
A. Not to any extent, if at all.

ever, one must be careful not to
cover the crowns of the plants.
:r With every passing year my con

Riding piggy-back is a pastime
not particularly suited to a 210
pound man. But D. W. Brady, Mar
tin County's robust assistant farm
agent will stoop (or rather climb)
to this position when it's necessary,
Brady reports that the plfey-
back ride was one of four meani
of transportation he had to 'use to
get to one farm. Frank Barber, who
lives in a section known as "the
Islands" had called for information
on swine production.
"roe Islands" is a rich farming
section along the Roanoke River
that is isolated when the river and
swamp water rise. Despite the fact
that rains had swollen the river,
Brady set out, traveling as far as
possible by car. Then Barber met
him with mule and cart; When they
reaenrd the deep, swift r'ver, the
pair abandoned the mule and cart
and proceeded another mile ' by
boat.
Barber then tied the boat to a
tree, donned his hip boots and told
Brady to get on his back. Brady
climbed aboard, and a few minntcs
later reached dry land '
Brady says that during a flood In
1940, all the Barber land was cover
ed with water. They had to move
ine nogs out by boat. - .' -Wheat
