FARM QUESTIONS
QUESTION: What is the purpose
of Phosphate in the garden fertilizer?
ANSWER: Phosphorus is necessary
for plant cell division, and it is
especially eswential for fruit and
seed production, says H. R. Ntswonger,
Extension horticulturist at State
College, fie points out that it sometimes
stimulates the formation and
growth of roots, gives a start to
plants, wd hastens maturity. Superphosphate
is needed in the production
of snap and lima beans, com,
peas, peppers, tomatoes, okra, squash,
cucumbers, cantaloupse, cabbage, collards
and eggplant.
QUESTION: What lend of vessels
are beat for curing pork?
ANSWER: Oak barrels or large
stone jars are the most satisfactory
vessels for caring pork, says Ellis
Vestal, State College Extension
swine specialist, A clean container
is absolutely essential for successful
meat coring. It should always he
washed out and thoroughly scalded
before using. A free publication tor
North Carolina farmers with photographs
showing how to cut up the
carcass and with many helpful hints
« meat curing ^ may be obtained by

If we could spare a few moments
to observe nature at its work, we
might readily conclude that all life
upon the earth is a give and take
proposition. Then is even an interrelationship
between the two great
life kingdoms, the plant and the animal,
such that neither could exist
without the other.
If we should study the fundamental
laws of all human society, we should
see that in any highly developed and
complex social order, all of its members
are very fcitentependent. In an
economic order capital and labor are
likewise mutually dependent. Both
are indispensable. There must be
sufficient capital at the disposal of
leaders who have the vision and push
to explore the community and discover
its possible and immediate sources of
wealth and provide suitable situations
for their development and distribution.
There mu^t also be sufficient
labor with the necessary skill
and intelligence to develop and utilise
these sources of wealth for the advancement
of the community and
ultimately for the benefit of humanity
as a whole.
Somewhere in these proeesses there
is a place that every normal member
of the order could and should fill.
Finding and effectively adjusting
one's self to this place is the basic
purpose of all education. No one,
however conspicuous or insignificant,
has a moral right to expect more from
his community than he is willing to
put into it. If so, he ceases to be a
factor in its development and reduces
to the status of a human parasite
which is disdainful to self-respecting
men and women.
During the darkest days of our
recent depression, we all must confess
that, in our community, capital met
its responsibility voluntarily and
cheerfully. Those that were blessed
to have were happy to share with
those who were less fortunate to the
extent that there is no knowledge of
any extreme suffering. Now labor is
in demand and is faced squarely with
this question; is labor meeting its
responsibility cheerfully and up to
its capacity? Every one should stop
and think. If the answer is yes, then
all is well. If the answer is no, then
a readjustment should be the next
move. Remember, "The pendulum
will swing back". We might have
another economic depression even in
our day. Finally, it behooves all of
us to live today so that yesterday
can bring only pleasant memories and
tomorrow happy anticipations.

THIS community has every right to be proud
of the way it is meeting the appeal for
more pulpwood. We are proving that we can
get out the wood. Now let's keep it comingl
This war isn't won yet—not by a long shot
Our boys will be fighting for quite a while.
They will be needing ammunition, food, medical
supplies — and all these things that are
shipped in paperboard containers are made
from pulpwood.
Pulpwood is our wartime job. Pulpwood can
still be a bottleneck, holding up America's war
effort. Our responsibility is to see that it does
not. No boy shall die because we have failed.
