To plan mx^menus wisely for
the entire week in advance.
To market for the entfre week
at one time.
■'To prepare food so that it will
be tempting and appetizing: and
in quantities that will result in
a minimum of leftovers.
To plan menus that will in
clude the less expensive cuts of
meat and meat substitutes and
stiU be “fit for a king.”
To buy fruits, vegetables and
•meats in quantity when they are
abundant, low' in price and at
their prime so that they may be
preserved by freezing or can
ning against future winter needs.
It is muoh more economical- to
buy a large roast of meat and use
it for several meals than to buy
small amounts of various cuts of
meat. A great ti.re and money
saver results when you organize
a market list and set aside one
morning or afternoon each week
to make your purchases. By
planning your menus in advance
you will avoid the ever present
daily worry of “What shall I
have for dinner?'’ Good home
making habits will help you to
find a truly happy new' year.

At Home on the Farm
Wkh
The City Cousin
I was sauntering do-ivn the
street atiout a year ago -and a-
long came my bid friend. Jack
Weaver, leadin’ a big work mule.
“Where you goin,’ Jack,' lead
in’ that mule through the middle
of town?”* I asked him.
. “I’m takin’ him over to the
dentist to get his teeth fixed,”
he calmly replied.
iNow I’ve always had a lot of
respect for Jack Weaver—folks
say he’s one of the best far
mers in Eaglerock county—but
I knew that even if our dentist
had gone mad and turned to
grindin’ mule’s teeth, the animal
•would have to have an appoint
ment like everybody else and
probably have to stand in line
for hours, to boot.
“This I W'ant to see!” I says
to Jack, and we walked down'
the street together, us and the
mule.. Pretty soon, we found
ourselves at the edge of the
school yard where farmers from
all over t|he area h'ad gathered
with their horsds'and mules.
“A workstock clinic,”- Jack
informed me, as if I already
knew. “The State College Ex
tension Service holds these early
in the year all over North Ca
rolina. Bert, here’s gonna get a
dental inspection,” he added
solemnly.
I got around t!o talkin’ to the
licensed veterinarian, who gave
it to me straight. “The horses’s
■';r.outh is so constructed that its
teeth wear off irregularly,” he
told me, “and if this isn’t cor
rected,” the animal^ can’t chew
properly, and digestive upsets
develop.” Then he went on to tell
me how the clinics provide free
examination, treatment for both,
dental work, and other such care
at special prices.
So, I thought it was about
time I checked up on the 1947
clinics. I hustled out to State
College and put, the question up
to Leland Case, in charge of Ex
tension Animal Husbandry there,
and he said, sure enough, if was
just about time for them again.
Er “We’re scheduling clinics in 67
counties during January,’ he told
ime, “and urging every ''•tjarmer
who has workstock in poor Vipn~
dition to check with his co^t^N
agent on the time ^and placei”
If a team’s gonna have what
it takes to do heavy spring work,
I guess now’s a good time to take
out a little “hospitalization in- '
surance.” •
