THURSDAY, SEPT. 16, 1943 THE NEWS - JOURNAL, RAEFORD, N. C. PAGE SEVEN 3 BAZOOKA I 38&$m BRICK n T State College Hints for Farm Homemakers "Bv. By RUTH CURRENT 'When the front door swells, the bureau drawers stick, the dining table warps, and the ironing board bulges, blame the weather, say wood experts. Wood, especially unfinished wood, absorbs moisture from the air in warm humid weather and swells. While the wood is swollen, not much can be done except to ease tight places by Tubbing with wax. But later when heat has dried out the house and brought the wood back to normal size, coat the under side of tables and other unfinished wood surfaces with varnish or wax to prevent the wood from taking in so much moisture again. The bulged board that adds to home Ironing difficulties is a problem to many homemakers. Ironing boards are usually unfinished, and kept in damp laundries or kitchens. In iron ing, steam from damp clothes is driv en down into the wood. Wood ex perts advise buying a thoroughly seasoned board at least an inch and a, half thick, because thick wood warps less than thin, and giving it several all-over coats of good spar varnish. Cleats of hard wood nailed to the under side of the board help - t:. HOKE OIL & FERTILIZER CO. DUNDARRACH TRADING CO. ) GINNERY OAK DALE GIN ROCKFISH GIN DUFFIES GIN CO. . EDINBURG GIN CO.

Braswell, Jr., part owner and manager of this 22,000-acre es tate urged the tenants to save some of the money which they will clear from the sale of their tobacco, cotton and peanuts this season and invest it in war bonds and stamps. "Tobacco will not bring the money that it brought in 1942," Mr. Bras well said, "but the better acre yields will likely make up the difference. I hope no tenant on this plantation will use his money to buy a second hand autcmqbile because it will cost as much as a new one normally does. "N Sixk, -rue Jf SSSlk r1 .

Get your homes in better shape and then invest your money in war bonds and stamps. With this money saved, after the war is over, I will help you to buy land at a reasonable price. You also will have money enough then to buy an automobile if y'ou need one." Mr. Braswell also cautioned his ten ants against selling corn and other feed. "If you think you have any corn to sell, I don't think you have, but if you must sell corn, I will buy every grain you want to sell and will pay you ex actly what you would get for it else where," he said. Mr. Braswell thus called attention to the great need for all kinds of feed for livestock. Braswell Farms, like other farms in North Caroina, has turned to livestock and since an ex cellent corn crop has been produced on the farms this season, it should be saved for feed. The Braswell Farms is an outstand ing example of excellent land-lord-tenant relationships in North Caroli na. Some of the tenants have been on the farm for 25 years or longer and none ever want to leave. Mr. Bras well uses the services of the farm and home agents and Extension Special ists to advantage, he says, in all of his pfogressive farming operations.

Rural and city churches throughout the United States and Canada which belong to the 42 Protestant denominations co operating in plans for Religious Edu cation Week, September 26 to October 3, will have special programs to em phasize the importance of "Communi ty Foundations" in building for a Christian world community. Many denominations will observe Promotion or Rally Day in their Sun day schools on the opening Sunday ol the week, it was announced today by Dr. Roy G. Ross, general secretary of the International Council of Religious Education, sponsor of the 13th annual Religious Education Week. Family-night-at-home programs, church workers conferences, planning meet ings for the United Christian Educa tion Advance, and inter-church ex panded community service activities are included in denominational plans. American governmental and bus iness leaders have joined religious officials in endorsing Religious Ed ucation Week, Dr. Ross announced in releasing statements from Paul V. "McNutt, chairman of the War Man power Commission, and from James L. Kraft, Chicago industrialist and acting president of the Internation al Council. "In the midst of the material hav oc of total war, mankind, without Religious faith, would have little to sustain him," Mr. McNutt declared. "Total war means the destruction of everything material. Faith, re ligious faith, alone is beyond its reach. "Some men call that faith hope, but, by whatever name it is known, its inspiration is the same, man's un haken belief in God. It is only when he loses that belief that faith forsakes him and then only can he be totally destroyed." Mr. Kraft calls attention to the fact that 15,000,000 children and young people in the United States and Canada today "are growing up without regular religious instruc tion," and urges "citizens every where to give serious thought to im mediate ways of bringing Christian teachings" to these children of youth. Harvest "Yams Before Frost Thousands of bushels ot sweet po tatoes are lost in North Carolina each winter because growers wait until af ter frost to harvest the crop, says J. Y. Lassiter, Extension horticulturist at State College. Ho recommends. that growers dig their potatoes when they are mature and not wait until frost kills the vines. The ground should be good and dry when harvesting begins. Several hills of potatoes should be tested for maturity just before har vesting. When a mature potato is broken, the surface will appear white and dry in a few minutes. If the po tato is not mature, the broken sur face will show considerable sap and the color will change to greenish black. The sweet potato Is covered by a thin, delicate skin which is very easi ly broken. For thli reason, care should be taken to avoid cutting, bruising or otherwise injuring the po tatos during digging, picking up, grading, placing in containers, and moving to the storage house. Do not put any bruised or injured potatoes in storage and those showing any evidence of disease should be re moved as they are graded. If only sound, disease free potatoes go into the storage house, the loses during storage will be greatly reduced. Lassiter calls particular attention to the need for carefully cleaning and disinfecting the storage house and all baskets, boxes, crates, and other con tainers used in harvesting and storing the crop. O A man and wife, riking in the woods suddenly realized they had lost their way. Said the husband: "Wish Emi ly Post were here with us I think we took the wrong fork."
