Well - Planned
Storage Saves
Time and Money
■ ft
A sound investment of time wd
money, says Pauline Gordon, exten
sion home management specialist of
State College, is a well-planned sto
rage space for canhed foods.
In a newly-published folder now
available from the college, it is point
ed out that every farm can have
adequate storage space for food with
but little work and expense.
“Not only is it possible to reduce
the cost of meals by using home
grown and home-conserved foods, but
the satisfaction of having a good sup
ply and vaiety on hand at aU times
means much to the homemaking,”
Miss Gordon said. “She knows the
health and happiness of her family
depend on well-balanced meals.’*
Actually, there are four good rea
sons for having plenty of storage
space. First, it provides an adequate
place for conserved products, suf
ficient in quantity to meet budget
requirements. Second, it allows pro
ducts to be arranged* for convenience
according to their food value.
Third, well-planned storage im
proves the quality and variety of
canned meats and of jellies, preserves,
and pickles. Fourth, it improves the
quality and care of dried, brined,
and stored products.
The folder explained proper loca
tion of storage space, the actual con
struction, pulling the food away, and
the space arrangement. Three illu
strations, with dimension, show plain
ly how the cabinets and shelves may
be built to conserve a maximum of
space.
Specialists of the Home Demonstra
tion Department at State College,
in cooperation with the Agricultural
Engineering Department, prepared
the new folder. Copies may be ob
tained without charge by writing to
the Agricilltural Editor at State Col
lege and asking for Extension Folder
No. 47, “Storage for Canned Foods.”

Timely Farm Questions
g
Question—^What price is the new
milk'plant at Statesville • paying for
fluid milk?
A^wer—^Extension dairman, John
Arey, says its plants is paying $1.60
per hundred pounds for 4 percent
milk with a premium on milk of hi-
ghel: butterfat. Right now, 2,500 farms
are supplying this milk plant with
abdtit 90^060 poumds of milk a day and
are finding this market a good sub
stitute for cash crops.
Question—Is barley a good feed for
hogs?
Answer—^Yes. Poimd for pound it
is not as efficient as com but barley
does'produce pork of excellent quali
ty. It does not pay to grind corn for
hogs but it does pay to grind barley
and the finding increases its feed
value by 17 percent. If barley is sub
stituted for com as hog feed. Exten
sion swine specialist Ellis Viestal, re
commends that 120 poundk of the
Whole barley replace 100 pounds of
shelled com. Because of the usual
droughts in summer, it may be Well
to plant some barley this fall for hog
feed next year.
Question—What is a good fall and
winter grazing crop for my poultry
flock?
Answer—^Roy Dearstne, head poul-
tryman, says crimson clover and any
of the small grains are fine but that
Italian rye grass is one of the best.
The birds on the State College poult
ry farm seem to prefer rye grass to
even crimson clover or alfalfa when
all three are available. The grass
furnished green grazing during the
entire winter for the past two years
except during extremely cold weather
when the birds had to be confined.
An acre of rye grass will furnish
grazing for 100 birds but it is best
to divide the acre into two parts and
alternate the grazing to allow time
for re-growth.
Market 1$ Offered
Fw Black
WalnBt Products
Americans consume fifty million
dollars worth of nuts each year, and
about one-fifth of these are from wild
trees in the forests. In other words,
ten million dollas picked from the
ground, not including the nuts con
sumed by thousands of farm families
who have their own.
With this in view, R. W. Graeber,
Extension forester at N. C. State
College,suggests that North Carolina
farm families, especially 4-H Club
boys and girls, add the growing of
black walnut trees as a sideline to
their agricultural enterprises.
“No less than $150,000 worth of
nuts are sold in North Carolina each
year,” he declared, “and the possi
bilities for growing black walnut,
both for nuts and lumber, are good.
The market is far from saturated.”
This is only one of the angles of
“tree farming” stressed by Graeber
in his forestry educational program.
Continuing, he says “Each year eight
hundred million dollars are brought
into the American bank accounts
through the sale of forest products,
making this one of the chief sources
of our income. Six million people are
directly or indirectly employed in our
forests; and if it was not for wood,
another 122 million or more would
have a hard time making a satis
factory living. ''
“The house we live in is usually
made of wood, as wee as the bed
we sleep in, the chairs we relax in,
the table we eat at; and the stove
we cook with consumes a lot of wood.
Even when the newspaper arrives,
it is printed on paper made of wood.
Our shoes would be so stiff we could
n’t bend them if they were not treat
ed with tannic acid, which is extract
ed from chesnut, hemlock or oak
bark.
“There are more than 4,500 dif
ferent uses of wood, This counts plas
tic as one use and paper as one use,
but there are thousands for each of
these.”

RemodM
For
Rural Homes
More light is possible in many
rural homes with the rapid growth
of rural electric lines. Where new
poWer is lighting farm homes, most
of the users are installing modem
fixtures.
But in homes where electricity
has been available for some time,
many farm families can remodel
their existing lighting system without
much expense to provide better light
with less glare, says D. E. Jones,
rural etectrification specialist of the
State College Extension Service. *
Lighting experts now recommend
much more light and better distribut
ed light in homes than they did for
merly. It is better for the eyes, they
say,. if all light in a room is well
difused, with a minimum of glare,
and with no sharp contrast between
lighted .objects and their background.
Jones points out that possible im
provements might include more con
venient outlets and sWiches, more
properly designed portable lamps, the
shading of bare bulbs, and more
powerful light bulbs.
“Double or triple convenience out
lets in the living room increase the
number of tables or floor lamps the
family can use for such close-see
ing activities as reading, studying,
writing or sewing,” the State College
specialist declared. “Similarly, extra
outlets in bedrooms make it possible
to have bureau and bed-side lights
and a “reading in bed” light.
“Ceiling fixtures, in which bare
bulbs are used, may be converted into
fixtures giving diffused light by co
vering the bulbs with individual sha
des, or by using a diffused bowl of
translucent glass or plastic. For in
direct lighting, a metal bowl may be
used.”

“You can’t pump water out
wells!” said a prominent preacher.
My friend, I hope that this statement
will pierce your heart.
Many people today are bymg to
satisfy the demands of their co^
science and perform their supposed
rfeligious duties so they,will find favor
with God and acquit themselves weU
before the eyes of men. But though
they obey the letter of religion Md
citizenship they are not right with
God. They have not drunk of the
Water of Life experimentally. Their
heart is dry. There is tittle wonder
that their Christianity is endured
rather than enjoyed.
You cannot enjoy keeping the laws
of God unless you know Go'd per
sonally in Jesus Christ. A man asked
me one cold Saturday night as I was
passing out tracts on the streets of
Charlotte, “Why don’t you go down
a couple blocks and cash in for a
good time? What are ya doin’ this
for? Are ya getting paid fer it?” Even
after my explaining that I was having
a wonderful time trying to get the
Gospel over to dying men, the man
could not understand why I chose to
do this sort of thing on a cold Satur
day night instead of going^ in for a
good time. If Jesus Christ lived in
your heart, you will love Him much
more than the “pleasures of sin for
a season.”
Unless you Ijiave defintely passed
from death unto life, you cannot pos
sibly be serving Christ with a pure
love. In talking with people you can
easily tell wheather their “church
work” is just another cog in the
wheels of their life or wheather they
are working the works of an inliving,
redeeming Son of God.
Why are you not satisfied, even-
though you have tried to be
Christian? One answer! Your “OTris- '
tianily” or religion is being pito“P®d
from a heart that is not bubbling With
the water of Life. As maiqr as re
ceived Him, to them gave He the.
power to become the Sons God.
