, .?? in mm. ? ? . . , . .. Clean Up! Rake Up! Is Springtime Cry V ???? It's springtime, and that means! that Clean Up! Rake Up! campaigns are in progress. Miss Anne Pauline Smith, district home agent of the State College Extension Service, says j that whitewashing pays as big divi dens in improving the appearance of a farmstead as any spring cleaning practice. She recommends the following whitewash for exteriors, such as out buildings and fences, and says it is waterproof: Slack 62 pounds (one bushel) of quicklime with 12 gallons of hot water. Pour into this a mix ture of two pounds of common table salt and one pound of sulphate of zinc, dissolved in two gallons of hot water. Finally add two gallons of skimmed milk and mix thoroughly, i Another formula which is suitable for either exterior or interior use follows: Slake one-half bushel of quick or lump lime with boiling wa ter, keeping it covered during the process. Strain it and add a peck of salt dissolved in warm water, three pounds of ground rice put in boiling water and boiled to a thin paste, one half pound of powdered Spanish whit n ing, and a pound of clean glue dissol ved in warm water. Mix these well together and let the mixture stand for several days. Keep the white-1 wash thus prepared in a kettle or portable furnace and when used put it on as hot as possible with painter's whitewash brush. THE ANSWEBS 1. A World War draft dodger who escaped from custody in 1920. - 2. Nobody knows; it has not been tested in war. - 3. About 150,000. 4. Not at this session. 5. A recent study by the Social Security Board indicates a sum be tween $890 and $975 for 1937. 6. The term is employed, usually, to avoid direct quotation of the Chief Executive ? 7. Pan American Airways system, seeking a mail subsidy, says 52 out bound trips a year would cost $3,130, 000. 8. An amendment to an important bill, containing provsions not likely to pass by its own strength but which the President cannot veto without killing the important measure. 9. Opinions vary, but "No" is the preponderant answer. 10. No; they are expected to leave soon. Looking at Washington (Continued from page one) eign Relations Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee on neutrality revision were under way last week. Some fifteen definite proposals were before the House and not quite that many before the Sen ate Committee. No one expects any definite action by both houses before ~ May 1st, when the "cash-and-carry" provisions of the present neutrality act expire. This provision has aroused considerable discussion and is the center of a vigorous contest. It is quite certain that any effort to revise neutrality legislation to per mit discrimination as between aggres sor and non-aggressor states at war will precipitate a prolonged fight in the Senate where isolation senators are prepared to wage a bitter cam paign against any changes. More over, in the present delicate state of international affairs, it is thought that the Administration might not risk a chance of a defeat or the loss of prestage that close division would entail abroad. Under these circumstances the "caah-and-cary" provision may be al lowed ttf lapse or else be extended by resolution for another year, thus giv ing Congress additional time in which to enact substitute legislation. Such a course may be accompanied by a res * olution, authorizing the President to impose embargoes and perhaps take other retaliatory action against Ja pan. This would meet the objection that a "cash-and-carry" plan aidijn pan and hurts China. Obviously, in Europe, the same policy -aids the de mocracies in their battle against the cHststor stated* The wide difference of opinion that exists in regard to proper neutrality legislation is seen in the testimony of Bernard If. Munich, who was x chairman ef the War Industries ; Board during the World War.

Harrill, club leader for the State College Ex tension Service. It will be a Sunday set apart all over North Carolina for 4-H Club memben to participate in I the church services in their respec-l tive communities, he explained. Several methods of observing this occasion have been suggested to club members and they are expected to work out a program of participation with local ministers and other church leaders. Some clubs will sponsor the prepa ration of the Church Bulletin which will include an explanation of 4-H Club work, or club members dressed in the distinctive club uniform will distribute it. Many ministers are ex pected to invite two club members to sit in the pulpit with them, a girl to read the scripture lesson and a boy to lead in prayer. The collection will be taken in some churches by the boys, and team demonstrations are being planned by club members in other counties. The musical program for the service is being arranged by several clubs. Other groups will conduct Vesper services, this program being especial ly recommended for Older Youth Groups. Young People's services will be sponsored by numbers of clubs, while many will lead a Go-To-Church Day campaign. State Leader Harrill has urged all clubs to beautify the church grounds and to assume some responsibility for arranging flowers in the church on 4-H Church Sunday, May 14. ? Infertile Eggs Will Hold Flavor Better Infertile eggs will hold their flavor better and will keep fresh longer in hot weather, says C. F. Parrish, poul . try specialist of the State College Ex tension Service, in offering poultry suggestions for the month of ApriL To obtain this type of eggs, all male birds should be sold when hatching is completed, and plans made to re place them for another year with pedigreed males from a dependable breeder, or least with males from a : reliable source, he explained. Parrish offered these other sug gestions for successful flock manage ment in the Spring: Don't sell out the flock of hens, but cull out in stead. Keep the birds that are and have been heavy layers as indicated by worn feathers, plump red combs and wattles, bright and wide-awake eyes, bleached beak and shanks, and a full, soft, flexible abdomen free from hard lumps of fat. Since the days are getting long enough for birds to consume enough mash without stimulating them, as is the case when a wet mash is fed, it will pay to start cutting down on the amount given each day until the prac tice is stopped entirely. The stimu lating practice will have to be resum ed in June when hot weather will cut feed consumption, resulting in lower egg production. However, a high quality laying | mash should be fed at this season rather than try to economise with a ! cheaper mash because eggs are cheap er. It is true that reasonably good egg production can be obtained with I ... ... : ^ i<'*5 cheap feed now, but if the bird*, are to. t. ..J... ? ? .. J , ? I ? ?.

Organized cotton improvement groups may apply for free classifica tion. of thrir 1939 crops under the Amended Grade and Staple Statistics Act, any time but not later than Sep tember 1, J. A. Shanklin, cotton specialist of the State College Exten sion Service, announces. Shanklin has been cooperating with county farm agents in the organization of one-variety ? cotton communities throughout the State, and these groups will be entitled to free clas sification. Regulations now require that im provement organizations file their requests for the service after their grower-members have completed planting. "This requirement was not in effect for the 1938 season, the first year the service was offered, , but will apply for 1939 so that each i organized group may give detailed [acreage figures upon which the U. S. Bureau of Agricultural Economics lean plan its services for the 1939-40 season," Shanklin said. Organized groups approved in 1938 must apply for renewal of their applications, and this may be done any time after their cotton is planted and between the dates specified for new applications. Because there is a possibility that funds allotted by the B. A. E. for this work may be inadequate to sup ply the service to all groups request ing it for the 1939 crop, the extension specialist urged that the one-variety communities make applications as soon as possible, since they will be considered for approval in the order in which they are received, with al lowance for planting dates in each section of the cotton belt.
