RAEFORD, NORTH CAROLINA THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23,1975 (He?" FRt 8 AM't# SATURDAY 8" Wfl WRONG - Although the tilv landfill has been open all day on Saturdays for over a month, the sign leading to the entrance has not been changed and some people are unaware they may use the landfill until 5 P.M. on Saturdays. Energy Conservation Week Citizen Help Urged, Nov. 2-8 November 2-8 has been set aside as Energy Conservation Week in North Carolina in a proclamation issued by Gov. Jim Holshouser. The week is designed to emphasize that conserving energy is a major priority and several activities are planned. Suggestions on how to conserve energy were outlined by the De partment of Military and Veterans Affairs in connection with the planned week. Tips For Saving Energy For The Motorist: Avoid jack-rabbit starts. Ac celerate slowly except when entering high - speed traffic lanes or when passing. Hot rod driving and a jerky acceleration can increase fuel consumption by 2 miles per gallon in city traffic. Avoid excessive idling. The average American car consumes a cup of gasoline every 6 minutes when idling. Don't idle the engine for more than a minute if you are waiting for someone - - it takes less gasoline to restart the car than it does to idle it. Break gas wasting habits. For instance, don't pump the ac celerator or race the engine when your car isn't in motion. It wastes gasoline. Use the brake pedal rather than the accelerator to hold your car in place on a hill. Check tire pressure at least once a month. For best gas mileage and for driving on long trips when heavy loads, inflate your tires 3 to 4 pounds above the recommended pressure, but do not exceed 32 psi. Underinflated tires can decrease fuel economy by as much as one mile per gallon. Radial tires will give you from 0.5 to I more miles per gallon. Do not mix radial tires with conventional tires. Tips For The Home: Close the fireplace damper. An open fireplace can draw up to 20 scs Activities F. O. Clark. District Conservationist An established conservation practice for North Carolina in October is small grain seeding to combine the best features of minimum tillage, crop rotation and double cropping, says Hmmett R. Waller of Raleigh, conservation agronomist for the USDA-Soil Conservation Service. In a typical pattern being used by more and more Tar Heel farmers, small grain is harvested in the late spring and followed by soybeans, grain sorghum, or silage corn planted by the "no till" method. This not only provides two cash crops on the same acreage in one season, but protects soil and water resources on the farm. Waller said. No-till planting saves time and tractor cost, conserves moisture and protects the soil through use of the previous crop residue. Many farm operators also find October an excellent time to add lime and other plant nutrients to overcome soil deficiencies, and. when preparing the small grain seed bed, incorporating the material in the soil. Seeding tall fescue in the small grain crop will reduce insect and plant diseases affecting tobacco. Waller added. The increases infes tation this past season has renewed the importance of this practice among tobacco producers. Fescue is resistant to many diseases and insects which attack tobacco plant. percent of the warm air out of the house -- per hour! "One-place" cooking. Another way to save is to prepare an entire meal in one place -? either in the oven or the broiler -- instead of using the oven, broiler, and top burners. This saves you work and conserves energy, too. Traffic control at home. Needless opening of outside doors during cold weather lets large volumes of heat out. and equal amounts of cold air in. Remind little ones to close doors behind them, and keep in-and-out trips dow n. The reduced traffic will mean a warmer, draft - free home. Closing shades, drapes and blinds can help block drafts around windows and keep heat from leaking out. On sunny days, open the shades, drapes and blinds to let the sun help heat the house. Extend the life of a water heater. Several times a year, drain a pail or two of waer from the faucet located near the bottom of the heater to remove sediment and mineral deposits from the bottom of the container. Sediment build-up makes a gas burner work harder, therebv using more eas and shortening the water heater's serv ice life. Fix leaky faucets. A small leak that fills a coffee cup in 10 minutes wastes 3.280 gallons of water a year. You can conserve energy and money just by replacing a washer promptly. Clean the lint filter in your clothes dryer before each use to insure its maximum efficiency. Cut down on energy and ironing by removing no-iron clothes im mediately from the dryer, thus eliminating wrinkles. Community Calendar Compiled by Raeford-Hoke Chamber of Commerce Thursday.

Young & Freddie O'Neal County Agricultural Agents Sellers of livestock were put on notice by the Nebraska Supreme Court recently that the Uniform Commerical Code put new burdens on them. As a matter of future law. the court said: "Where a seller sells animals for the purpose of breeding and raising young and improving the quality of a herd, knowing that the buyer is buying animals for such purposes and is relying on the seller's skill or judgement to select or furnish suitable animals, there is an implied warranty that the animals are reasonably fit for such purposes and that they are not infected with a disease which substantially de stroys their value for such pur poses."

This booklet dis cusses the rate of nitrogen demon stration. the different planting dates demonstration, and the seed ing rate demonstration. It also gives the characteristics of all the leading varieties of wheat and barley. If you plan to raise small grain, you should use the variety most adapt able to vour farm.

Will we be smart enough to plan for areas to produce food that will not interfere w ith the places that people live. We already have problems w ith the use of agricultural chem icals. Are local land use plans the answer to these problems?
