WE MUST HAVE JUNK Production in ever increasing volume is our hope of victory. For this we MUST have scrap materials - The shortage of materials agaip emphasizes.the need for saving materials and for salvage. You may be tired of hearing about salvage, you may be weary of collect ing scrap—and yet we cannot close bur ears to the crying need for salvage, we cannot stop niriting out the scrap, without risking failure and defeat. WPA workers, beating the back roads of the farm country and digging okl rails from city -streets have turned up 100,000 tons of scrap metal—44,9oo 'tons' of it in the form of steel rails. Scrap rubber, 454,155 tons of it, is moving to reclaiming plants ai t-w rate of 4,000 tons a day. WPB’s Conservation Division announced plans for a “Junior Salvage Corps” of school children —more than 30,000,000 of them —to conduct a nation-wide, house to-house scrap canvass for two waeks beginning Oct ober 5. And the American Legion is discussing with local governments a proposal so that old cannon balls and cannon and the howitzers of 1918 may be scrapped to make the guns and tanks an planes of 1943. Legion veterans have offered to give their own war relics—relics which, melted in the furnaces and refab ricated in the arsenals, will help arm treir sons who fight today. All these enterprises will help but they are not enough. Only if each one of us does his part will we have enough—barey'enough—for-our needs.- \OU KNOW WHEN A „#***', Jp .dill A- ■ •iv’' The following telegram was received Wednesday In G. L.

The upper parts are olive green, the sides gray, the breast and throat are bright yellow, the eye rinp is white and there is a white stripe leading from the eye to the bill. Ibis bird, when abund ant, is unlike the motto for children, frequently heard but not seen.

H. C Smith, agronomist of the Agricultural E x periment r< Station at N. C. State Coll- a ege. . a Young tender forage plants, he explained, make a an ideal supplement for the k regular dry feeding of this e time of year. The forage A provides an appetizing suc . culent feed, rich in high ( quality proteins, vitamins, i and minerals. 1 The exercise afforded ( and the exposure to sun- b shine while grazing fqrth- ( er helps the values of the > , green feed and aids in ' keeping the animals “ and \ birds in thrifty condition, t . Milk and eggs are improv- g . ed in quality and increased ( m quantity when cows and hens have good grazing. 1 Smith explained that it £ ’is economical to provide ‘ grazing for livestock and ] ’ poultry because they harv- ( ' est this righ quality feed themselvbs. This means a I saving in labor to the far- 1 > mer. Other savings are se- ] ' cured by more efficient use < » of the regular ration. i For example, the agron- : omist stated, swine require ’ - less grain and high qual- : ; ity protein when on past- < - ure, and hens produce eggs < ■ five to ten percent cheaper < • when they have ample gra- 1 zing. < ; Crops suitable for fall, i - winter and spring grazing 1 . are oats, barley, Abruzzi j - rye, Italia nrye grass, cri mson clever, hairy vetch i f an d ra ptC The crop chosen t should be one known to do . w r ell under local conditions. ; County agents will aid in . selecting such crops and - advise them as to proper cultivation and fertilizat • ion practices. ' pending most of* the time 'in dense shruobery and ’• vines, utterinp most of its > notes in concealment. The nest of this variety is large an usually is built in a bush from three to 1 five feet from the ground! ‘ The eggs, three or four in 1 number, are white spotted * with red or lilac. The menu consists of in > sets, the boll-wevil and the s alfalfa beetle constituting > a considerable part of the 1 diet in places. It preys on 1 many other insects. Like the Jay, is is a hum - orist or jester. It utters a r great variety of sounds. 1 John Burroughs, the natur , alist, says that when it is conscious of your presence It darts into the bushes and tunes up, no Frenchman rolling his r’s so fluently. However, it has a flight song thrillingly beautiful. Flying to a great height, it remains almost motion less for a moment, then it descends making many gy rations and assuming ma ny ludicrous and grotesque Poses before lighting at. _ The original perch. The Yellow - Breasted Chat is rare but present in Yancey County. Its great and most unusual qualities make it one of oure quaint est birds.— (James Hutch ins.) ~HONEY .
