Following are some of the imports
ant home front responsibilities of
the housewife:
Each extra day of life you give
your household goods is a day earned
for the war effort. £ach new
habit of care you practice helps to
shorten the war.
Why not begin with painting the
screens, wire and frame, and screen
doors, too. Theee should be taken
down and stored in the attic or
storage room. This is a good practice
for all times.
When you buy soap take the wrapper
off and let it dry; it will go
much further. Save soap scraps to
make a .liquid soap—«oap scraps plus
water
Dont pot hot food in refrigerator.
Don't waste space or refrigerator by
keeping in the refrigerator foods
that do not need to be kept
cold such as pickles, jelly, vegetables,
shortening and unopened cans.
Keep upholstered furniture clean

"THE WAR.AGAINST

Today I saw the picture "The War
Against Mrs. Hadley" and I again
urge every man and woman to be
sure and see this great production.
I cannot praise this picture nearly
enough. It will have you laughing
and then suddenly you will be weeping.
It is truly one of the greatest
productions of this year and of any
year. It is the down to earth story
of a mother who does not realize the
seriousness of life and of the part
that each and every one of us must
play if we are to win this war.
Don't miss "The War Against Mrs.
Hadley," with Fay Bainter, Edward
Arnold, Richard Ney, the young son
of "Mrs. Miniver," Jean Rogers and
Spring Lyingtoci . . . showing for the

to "The World At War" film, which

Winter Hay, Grazing
Crops Needed In East
Recent rains In the Coastal Plain
have destroyed the value of a large
part of the hay that was stacked
outdoors In Eastern Carolina- The
damage to peanut and soybean hay
has been especially serious, reports
E. B. Collins, Extension agronomy
leader1 .of N. C. State College.
■ "Every effort should he made by
livestock farmers to. supplement their
feed supplies with fall-seeded crops
for winter grazing and spring hay,"
says Collins. "Fortunately, thfere la
still time to sow winter legumes and
small grains to be grazed in February
and March, or to be harvested
for hay in the late spring."
wf The agronomist explained that the
restrictions placed on the use of fertilizers
containing nitrogen applied
on small grains does not apply where
the grain is not harvested. When
farmers seed small grains for grasing,
or in mixtures with legumes for
grading, they will be' able to obtain
£-12-6 and 2-8-10 fertilizers. Collins
says that all wintek"vhay and
gracing Crops should be top-dressed
with nitrogen February or early
March,
One of the best winter hay mixtures,
according to ' the Extension
worker, is a combination of vetch or
Austrian peas and small grains. He
suggests the per acre seeding of 1#
pounds <rf vetch or Austrian winter
peas, 2 bushels of Pulgrain No. 8
or Fulgmin oats, H bushel of Garcia
or Kedhatt wheat, and % bushel q*
! Iredell barley if availably TW# mix.
ture shof-'-S be planted a« soon as
possible, and should bo fertilized
with- 200 pounds per acre of 2-M-fl
fertiliser at planting time.
Collins says that 1H bushels at
Abruzzi rye, planted by November
16 and fertilized with 200 pounds of
r i - , ■ ——' ,
2-12-6 at planting time, will furnish
grasing in February and March*
