LET US HOPE
There is much disturbance abroad
as we commemorate the occasion of
Thanksgiving: Day this year. Let us
hope that the majority of the nations
will unite and stay united to prevent
another war and that continued peace
in these countries will preserve the
ideal of peace and insure the liberty
of our children.

ROYALTY! EXAMPLE
It is not very often that we find
ourselves wholeheartedly commend
xag the example of royalty but, it
seems, King George, of Great Britain,
sets a good example for American
commoners in at least one respect.
The King recently gave to the
municipal corporation of Windsor a
tract of land, containing eighty acres
with the 'tope that, in considering
the future use of the land, the coun
cil would be mindful of the require
ments of youth and do everything
possible to provide recreation to in
crease physical fitness.
Not a bad idea, even for a King.
Maybe some democratic commoner
..wiH be moved to demonstrate a simi
.. lar interest in the youth of some
American municipality. >
ITS MOSTLY UP TO YOU
- Now that the election is over and
the political experts have explained
everything in connection with the
balloting it might be just as well for
the average citizen to resume Kfe
along routine lines.
For most of us the task this month
is about the same that it was last
month and our endeavors are devoted
to the acquisition of sufficient coin
of the realm to keep a jump or two
ahead of our needs.
While national policies undoubted
ly affect the fortunes of peoples
everywhere, the effort of individuals
is the more potent source of success.
Consequently, as November moves
towards its dose, and the year 1938
spends its few remaining weeks, it
might be. well for us to survey our
problems and prospects and plan a
course that will be permanently bene
ficial.
The idea that young people have a
monopoly upon personal progress and
successful development is nonsense.
Every individual can improve his or
her lot by individual effort and the
sensible step is to discover the avenue
that is open for exploration and ex
ploitation. .

GERMANY'S BARBARISM
Germany's mistreatment of the
' Jews amazes American citizens who
have believed that individuals should
not be punished by a government ex
cept for specific wrongs, committed
by the person penalized.
This is, we suspect, a basic law of
civilized individuals. That all Jews
in Germany will be punished because
a misguided youth in Paris killed a
Nasi official is not justice although
- it demonstrates the fell extent of the
depravity that governs Germany.
In Qermany husbands and fathers
have .been arreted at work and de
ported into barren no-man's land
without cash and without as oppor
tunity of informing their wis? and
children of their fate. This is bru
tality.
In Germany Jewish professional
men and reputable business men
: j have been forced to give up'their
} /r less of their individual character and
' ' . been opened to them to make a living
for themselves or their ^pendents.

CHARGE
London, Nov. 21. ? The charge
that 70 Jews had been killed in one ,
German concentration camp was
made in the House of Commons to
night by Philip John Noel-Baker, La
morite.
Opening formal debate on the
question of oppressed minorities in
Europe, Noel-Baker said:
"At a concentration camp hear
Weimar 70 Jews were killed on the
night before it was known that Vom
Bath had died."
He referred to Ernst Vom Rath,
German diplomat who died in Paris J
November 9, from gunshot wounds
inflicted by HeracM Grynszpan, 17
year-**! PoKslT Jew.
At Leicester Former Foreign Sec- '
retary Anthony Eden said it was
"unthinkable that Britain should even
contemplate" discussions on the re
turn of Germany's pre-war colonies.
"Concessions that might'have been
at Ipasly discussable in7 some condi
tions fteoome inconceivable in others,"
Eden asserted, adding- that Ger
many's pre-war colonies. '

What is the fann outlook for next!
year?
This question ia answered annually
by the Bureau of Agricultural Econo
mics, of the Department of Agricul
ture, in a series of reports coveria^ t
current and prospective situations as
to supply, prices and demand for all
major farm products. They include
all available information in order to
aid farmers in making their crop and
livestock production and marketing1
plans for the coming year.
The basic material has been as- ;
sembled ami. organized by economists
and statisticians for the past few
months. They have been assisted in
scores of state agricultural extension
Bconomists. This week we continue -
to publish some of the outlook re
porti^gB: M I

BETTER living sk^n for
farm families : ]
Farm families will have more
rfconey to spend next year?more net
cash from farm products, increased
Government payments, and larger in
come from non-farm sources, the Fed
eral-Bureau of Agricultural Econom
ics and Home Economies says in out
look report,on farm family living for
the coming year.
The increase will be spent for bet
ter living, to pay off debts, and to
improve farm properties, the- report
said. The Bureau look for improve
ment especially in the "general net
worth situation" of families having
cash income of |600 or more. Below
this sum, living expenses have first
claim on funds.
"Dollar for dollar," the farm fam
ily's money income is expected to
stretch about as far next year as
this, since the general level of prices
of commodities bought for living is
not expected to change much in 1939
from late 1938. After a period of
limited spending power, many farm
families may plan to enlarge thoir
programs of food production for home
use, thus releasing cash for other pur
poses." t
The cash released will go into farm
improvements, into radios, automo
biles, electrical appliances, clothing,
house furnishings and other things
which farmers, like city people, now
regard as important in modern ways
of living.
"During the 1930's there has . been
a trend, " the report stated "toward
broadened social contacts for farm
families though improved trans
portation and. communication, better
roads, widespread ownership and
greater use of automobiles, and an
increase in radios."
Government surveys reveal that
about three-fifths of afl farm famil
ies now hav^ radios and that propor
tionately more farm than city famil
ies have automobiles. An increase in
purchases of radios is expected next
year, and the farm family, the report
points out, is a two-to-one prospect
for a used as contrasted with a new
car.
Eight yean ago only 13 per ceiflkof
the farms had electricity. Now, 18
per cent have electricity, and this
trend is expected to continue ? "In
part because of the Government pro
gram of encouraging rural electrifi
cation, and in part because of antici
pated income increases."
SMALLER ACREAGE FOR TRUCK
CROPS IN 1989
A small reduction in truck crop
averages for the 1989' harvests is
ndicated by the Bureau of Agricul
tural Economies in its annual outlook
epojrt on the major truck crops.
The relatively prices received this
pear by growers of important truck
oops for fresh market shipment are
rited as the main factor pointing to
a slight reduction in the total acreage
>lanted for the coming year.- In 19S8
the acreage and production of truck
srdfce for market were the largest on
record. With consumer incomes rath- ,
ar low, growers' prices dropped
snarpijL* ^
If production is reduced next fear
ind consumer purchasing poorer in
rreases as much as now anticipated, |
xrices and income to producers "will .
>e somewhat higbere" than in-193S-:
The discouraging price situation, i
n 1988 is expected tu result m smal- ,
er acreages of lima beans, beets,
iabbagpr celery, cucumbers, onions 1
and tomatoes for the country as a ,
srhoTe. Plantings may be some larger
or asparagus, snap beans, spinach,
increases are indicated ]
the acreages for some the 1988- .
fkll and winter vegetables But
- _ r... nortion L S
pec ted to be about 8 per cent smeller |
than It was this year. The largest,
reductions are indicated for the late.
states although other areas are ex*
pec ted to show some decrease.
Two successive seasons of relative* (
ly low prices account for the prospect
tive reductions in acreage. But pro
duction next year will depend bothj
upon the extent of acreage reduction1
and upon yields. Average yields on
the acreage now indicated for 1989
would produce shout . 810 million
bushels of potatoes. "With yields uj>
to the average of the past two sea
sons, the 1989 crop would apprixl
mate 860 million bushels," the Bu
rea Mid. The 1988 potato crop is es
timated as 378 million bushels ?
about 8 million bushels larger than
the 1927-36 average.

Run-Off of Water

\
Farmers in North Carolina, are be
ginning to realise farm terracing is
only a part of the*fundamental eros
ion-control problem involved in a
complete water disposal, system for
the entire farm, according to W. D.
bee of the State Colilege Extension
Service and E. B. Garrett, state co
ordinator of the Soil Conservation
weft*- ?
In the past, they poipt out, the gen
eral practice has been to discharge
eniiter from the ends of terraces or
hillside ditches on to any accessible
area not in cultivation, such as ;
abandoned fields, roads and line
ditches. Concentration of OB
these unprotected areas speeds up :
erosion and often develops gitflies
which work back into the fields, de
stroying the measures which wen jbi
tended to protect the field. ; ,.^ '1
L In many instances protected vrodd-:
lands or well-sodded .pasture toads
are accessible upon wh&i the^ con
centrated flow from terraces may be
discharged and spread without induc
ing erosion.
Natural dainage' ways or broad;
field depression*,' when properly
stabilised with, vegetation, provide I
the finest type of outlet Such areas
may be converted into meadow stripe *
which wOF not onto Jtove as outlets, ;
but will also supply the farmer with
an abundance of hay. /
In erosion control demonstration ;
areas it has been found detfrabfcrin!<
some cases, where natural outlets an I
not available to establish disposal i
areas along the edge of the field by!
retiring a triangular-shaped strip to L'
perennial hay crops, shrubs or trees. ;

and the birds which usually i produce
very heavily fer several mont's prior
to the molt This molt usually lasts
from four to six weeks and the birds
come back strong. The feed of a
warm, wet laying mash in the early
afternoon often helps to bring the
birds through the molt and into pro
ing of this maah is not recommended.
Only as much mash as will be con

Question: How much grain should
I feed a leaning ealf? ,
Answer : The amount of grain will
depend upon the condition of the in
dividual animal, but w^en weaning
begins the grain ration should be in
creased to provide the nutrients
formerly supplied by milk. A -good
quality legume bay should also be
fed. Where silage is available, this
should be inchidedin the ration. For
a six-months-old heifer, about she or
seven pounds of silage per day is suf
ficient. The animal should be kept
in medium flesh and in a good grow
ing condition at all times and upon
these conditions , will depend the
amount of grain and other feed nec
