PAGE TWO THE NEWS-JOURNAL. RAEFORD. N. C. THURSDAY, AUGUST 39, 1945 Two Recipes Given For Making Soap Making soup ;it home is becoming a necessity in these soap shortage d.ivs. Extension specialists in horn: economics at State College present two standard recipes for usvooketl ai.rt evoked soap. Six pounds of fat with 2'i pints of co'.d waUr, and 1 can of lye will n.ake about 9 pounds of soap. Six pounds of fat is equal to 13'2 stan dard measuring cups of liquid fat. Pour water into a small enamel, stone, or glass container. Dissolve the !ye in the water, stirring with a woo n spoon or paddle until dis solved. Mix in a well ventilated room but not in a breeze. Lit the lye water cool until the container feels cool to the hand. Melt the f.it in an enameled pan and stir with an emimeied spoon or a wooden pad die. Cool the fat to the correct tem perature throughout the pan. Cool the fat until the spoon begins lo leave a track in the mixture. Pour he lye solution into the fat in a small, steady stream, stirring slowly in one direction. Continue until the mixture is a honey-like texture. Let it stand for 10 to 15 minutes until the mixture becomes thick like salad dressing and then pour into molds o:' wooden boxes, lined with waxed paper. After 24 hours it is ready to cut. Cure soap for several weeks before using and never let it freeze. The formula for cooked soap is 2 quarts of melted fat, 1 can of lye. 1 cup of liquid ammonia, 1 quart of water, and 1 tablespoonful of bo rax dissolved in one-half cup of hot water. Dissolve the lye in water and It stand until lukewarme. Add slo.vly to the fat, stirring constant- Time Is Short For Seeding Pastures A permanent pasture on many farms in North Carolina usually is a few acres of poor land surrounded by a wire fenc, with ubout one-half of the area or more in woods ar.d t'ae remainder in gr.i.-s that has bee" overgrazed for a long number of vears and not fertilized. John Arey, in charge of Extension dairying at State College, says taut the average dairy cow expends about as much energy in finding grass in such a pasture as she obtains from it. It's no wonder that average milk production per cow is exceptionally iow on many farms when compare? with the rriik yields of herds on im proved permanent pastures, carefu'.ly seeded to both legumes and grasses, well fertilized, and so managed as to prevent overgrazing In early spring, late fall, and during dry periods in summer. On the basis of Agricultural Ex periment Station records, the Exten sion Service has outlined a forage crops program for North Carolina that may be adapted to the needs on any farm. Full information on the plan is in the hair's of county agents. 0 John Arey, in charge of Extension dairying at State college, says that it's a mistake to try to grow a gooi pcr.ranent pasture on waste land.
