Myron Maxwell, Extension Entomologist at State College, says that beekeepers in North Carotin* will be allowed additional allotments of sugar as their need arise*. The first allotment is for 10 pounds per colony fox those bees needing feeding. This amotmt may be had by making application to the local sugar rationing office, Maxwell says. In some counties, the permits are issued at the time the application is made, and in others, the applications have to be approved by the rationing board. An additional 15 pounds per colony will be given after filling out a slightly more detailed application at the sugar ratoning office. This application must be delayed for action by tiie rationing board. Tr» addition to these a provision for an emergency grant has been made, the entomologist says. This allocation provides for 16 pounds of sugar more, and is granted only if the beekeeper proves that his bees will die if they do not get the additional sugar. All applications for this sugar must be approved first by the County U.S.D.A. War Board and then submitted to the OPA rationing board. Plan Farm Shop Construction Now G. W.

T. Brown, Extension poultry specialist at State College. Under the OPA ceiling prices, a grower can get about 16 cents a dozen mora for graded eggs and this can easily be data* on the farm. Eggs which are well handled will almost always measure up to the Grade A stsndaid for interior quality, according to Brawn. In candling'eggs, the poultry specialist explained that the large ends of the eggs should be placed against the hole in the boa with the small end tilted down. Twirl the egg before the light and than quickly shift it so as to bring the small end before the light. Any Mood spots in the egg will usually show up plainly. After the egga have been candled, they should then be divided into sizes. A pair of small egg scales will be of great assistance in doing this job. For detailed information on official grading of eggs, Brown suggests that the grower get in touch with the county agent or write the Poultry Department, State College, RsMgh "Poultrymen can turn their spare minutes into dollars by candling and grading their eggs at home," Brawn says. legal advise which clean up perplexing financial problems snd other difficulties which niay confront the soldier.
