Some livestock Shows
To Be Held As Usual
Livestock breeders are generally
forgetting about show animals for
1942, and are concentrating on producing
meat and other products on
the Pood-for-Freedom list, says L, I.
Case, Extension beef cattle and sheep
specialist of N. C. Stat* College.
This is commendable, the animal husbandman
declared, but there still will
be a number at fairs and ahowv at
which stern <i and breeding cattle can
be exhibited.
Case said that 4-H Club members
and other farm youths will be given
an opportunity- to show their baby
beeves if transportation facilities are
still available. He said that plans
are still going forward to conduct
the 1M2 State Fair, but Dr. J. S.
Dorten, mM|dgr of the fair, is piepared
to call- the exposition off if it
seems in the beat interests of the
war effort
The International livestock Exposition,
usually held in Chicago the
fhat week in December, has been
cancelled for 1942, but fat stock and
cariot competition will be held at
the Chicago Stock Yards at approximately
the same time that the 1942
duction of more food, especially livestock
products. Therefore, 4-H members
and vocational students who are
conducting baby beef projects are
doing- their part in the war effort."

"This meeting is important to the
cotton farmers," Mr. Floyd said. "At
this time, growers and others interested
in stabilizing the income of
cotton producers will be given an opportunity
to bring up for discussions
any problems they encountered in the
program last year, and any changes
they would like to see made in the
program for 1943."

seventy-fire percent of the farm's
average yield.
NAZIS DESTROY
CZECH VILLAGE
New York, June 10.—A radio report
from Europe today said that
German authorities had destroyed an
entire village in former Czechoslovakia
after shooting all the male
inhabitants and deporting the women.
The report, heard here by CBS,
was said to have been broadcast by
the Prague radio and relayed through
the London radio.
The Prague radio was quoted, as
announcing;
"A village In thfe protectorate has
been encircled at the orders or <the
German authorities. All male Inhabitants
were shot; all women
were deported and the entire village
was leveled to the ground."
I Scientists are working . overtime
debunking ol0 theories. They now
say that women are more consistent
and less emotional than men. Soon
we expect them to claim it was Adam
who first tasted the apple.
