THE WILL TO WIN In a six column page space of the New York Times, published Oct. 3, the United States Rubber Co., of New York, put the way the average American feels about the present situation into about the finest nutshell we ever saw, and we are reprinting this statement in The Enterprise for the benefit of our readers, who believe as we do that the American people tove the grit with which to win this war.

But I got back on a payroll t The day the banks closed, I felt like I'd been hit with a ton of bricks. , But I got up and dusted my pants off!

"We cannot spare the man.power or the timber this year," he said, "because all human and forest resources are needed to win the fight for freedom against the Axis enemies. A cigarette butt, a lighted match, or a smoldering campfire may aid the Axis." Air Observation Post Beginning October 12 OBSERVERS—Please do not wait to be notified of your watch.

Kime Urges Farmers To Save Seed Cotton Continued rains during August and early September which caused considerable damage to both cotton seed and lint in eastern and southern areas of the State have created a major problem for those farmers who ordinarily save seed, says P. H. Kime, agronomist of the Agricultural Experiment Station of N. C. Siate College. * The extent of injury td the germination is not yet known, but it is expected to range from light to very heavy in some instances. Unfortunately, most of the crop was <5pen before, there seems to be little chance of saving seed from the second picking in the Coastal Plain area. Kime said about the only thing left to do is to save seed from least damaged fields, especially those in which the cotton did not shed all of its leaves and opened up somewhat later. An ample supply of seed for planting next year's crop should be saved and a germination test made about January. If the germination is too low, then' seed of the best strains having high germination should be purchased. The crop in the Piedmont area has been damaged but little, and the quality of the seed is expected to be good. It seems advisable, Kime said, bo sav« as much good seed as possible of Colter 100, strains S and 5; Colter 200, strains 1 and 2; and Wilds No. 18. Seed not used at home may be Machinery Rationing- : Changes Announced All farm implements and equipment, including: attachments, having a retail value of $26 or less have been removed from Class B under an amendment to the farm machinery rationing order, and may be sold without restrictions, according to information received by the State USDA War Board, with headquarters at State College. The new amendmend, which became effective October 1, also removed hay presses from Class B, making lear that hay presses come under the classification of hay balers and are in Class A. Providing a retail price classification for smaller and less scarce articles, it was explained, will save farmers the necessity of making certification of need to dealers when purchasing these items. The Farm machinery rationng orider became effective September 17, and placed all farm machinery and' equipment in three general classifications. Those articles in Class A may be sold only upion presentation of a certificate from the county farm machinery rationing board; those in Class B may be sold upon certification by the farmer to the dealer that the item je essential to production; and those in Class C may be sold without restriction. As provided- in Hie original order, rationing boards have been set up in each county, composed of the chairman of the County AAA Committee, who serves as chairman, said two farmers selected by the County USDA War Board. Two alternates also were named. These committees, the War Board said, wen named to serve until November 1 when a permanent farm machinery rationing plan will go into effect. 4 P. M.
