Where migratory camps are not available, the farmers fur nish housing which has been approved by the Farm Security. “The program will reach only a few critical areas this year, as funds are too limited and time is too short to do very much in the way of mass transpor tation of workers,” How ard H. Gordon, of Raleigh, N. C., Farm Security Reg ional Director for Region IV, has pointed out. In the five states of the region—N or t h Carolina, Kentucky, Virginia, West Virginia and there was a recent trans portation of 140 workers from the area of Danville, Virginia, and about the same number from the mountains of Eastern Ken tucky to the apple and peach and the to mato and onion fields o f Western New York State. Under the plan, the labor was recruited by the Em •ployment Service and tra nsportation furnished b y Farm Security. Slightly earlier, five bus loads of workers were tak en from the mountain cou nties of Perry and Jackson in Kentucky to the Blue* grass section of Shelby County to cut tobacco and spike it in the barns. In this case, the labor was re cruited by the Employment Service, but transported by the Shelby- County Farm Bureau in school buses. Agricultural leaders o f the section have Reported in the public press that the mountain labor, unaccus tomed to working in tobac co, made excellent workers where farmers of the Blue grass farms undertook to teach them how to cut and spik£ the stalks. “It is entirely possible,” Mr. Gordon pointed out, “that workers so transpor ted for temporary work ' may find opportunities for establishing themselves and their families permanently in such new areas. In this way, the double benefit would be accomplished of taking labor from sections where it definitely is not needed and providing it where it is in - keen de mand.’’ ' \w*SwvAy\ 4VU.S.WAR BONDS LET IT BE WRITTEN: - “Everything was done perfect ly.” Every detail of the funeral service is taken care of, and ll_. carried out in.a way to makte it a fitting tribute to the departed. HOLCOMBE & EDWARDS FUNERAL HOME Burnsville, N. C. Ambulance service Day & Night I - MEDICAL OFFICERS " Carlisle Barracks, Pa., October 30, 1942—F iv e hundred and sixty more of ficers of the Medical De partment today qualified for field duty with medical troops .when they were graduated in the 16th Offi cers’ Class from the Medi cal Field Service School at Carlisle Barracks. They left immediately for their respective units. First Lieut. R. 0. Jones of Burnsville was one o f the group. ' V' All but a few of the offi cers are experienced physi cians, dentists and veterin arians, but the training cpurse here in medical field work tauglit them the mili tary knowledge necessary for them to be efficient Medical Department Offi cers, capable of treating and caring for the wound ed under actual combat 1 conditions, as well as pre venting disease through military sanitation and ot her preventive measures. The graduation cere mony, which closed the one month training course, was held in the War Depart ment Theatre where each officer received his diplo ma from Brigadier-Gener al Addison I). Davis, Com mandant of the School and ~ Assistant Surgeon Gener al of the Army. In his ad dress to the graduates, General Davis cautioned the men of the importance a net seriousness of the work that lay before them _ in the dual role they will have to play in this war as physicians and soldiers. „ „ More About— any relative living in your house, own for that vehi cle.” The serial numbers, Mr. Wray said, are the. indent ed - numbers on the tiret walls. They are not to be confused mith any raised numbers appearing on the tires. In case the serial numbers have been obliter ated, only the brand name of the tire need be listed. The rationing board chairman urged car own ers with more than five tires for each vehicle to dispose of these excess tir es at once, since the ration ing board will demand an explanation from any car owner who lists more than five tires. Excess tires can be sold, to the Govern ment through the local of fice of the Railway Ex press Agency. Out of every seven and one-half dozen eggs pro duced in the.

FARMERS ARE URGED TO SEED LEGUME CROPS * North Carolina farmers should take advantage o f - the additional time allowed for seeding winter legume crops and spreading, lime and phosphate under the 1942 AAA program, ac cording to E. Y. Floyd, state AAA executive as sistant at State College. The time limit for carry ing out these soil-building i practices, he said, has been: extended through Novem i her 15 because of delays caused by recent heavy ■ rainfall. Other phases of ■ the 1942 program in North Carolina closed on October ■ 3i. * “Our recent unseasonab ;le rains came at a time when many farmers had their legume seed and lime and phosphate ready for use, but had been delayed in using them by the neces sity of harvesting crops already matured. ■ Appeals from farmers and AAA leaders throughout the ’ state resulted in an exten sion of fifteen days for carrying out these practic es being granted by AAA offiials a t Washington,” FJoyd said- “This will make it possible for a lar ge number of farmers to complete farming plans they mapped out several months ago and earn their maximum soil-building payments under the 1942 program.” Payments made by the AAA for seeding legume crops and spreading —lime and phosphate are counted toward the maximum soil building practice payments which may be earned by any individual farm coop erating in the Agricultur al Conservation Program. Floyd • declared that seed ing of winter legumes and spreading lime and phos phate are more important than ever before this year . due to the shortage of ni . trogen fertilizers and the r need for more pastures in the Food for Freedom Pro - gram. “Nitrogen will be harder to obtain next year than it was last spring, and w>e will have to provide as much as we can for our own use by storing it in the soil with legume crops,” he said.

More articles of food will be rationed; more rules will be made for our trucks and our tires, for the sale and purchase of many commodi ties, for us3 to which we may put many of the things we already own, how fast we may drive. We must keep up with these regulations in order to adjust ourselves personally to the many changes that w ill affect us in increasing degrees. We must know how to conserve so that we may aid in every war effort. These rules and regulations are national, most of them? But of necessity there are local variations, such as dates for registering that will be best suited to the communities. r «• Local Boards must inform local communities of the national regulations and of the plans for carrying them out in the community. No other means for giving this information is so readily available or so well suited to the task as the local newspaper. Ihis is a service that local newspapers all over the country are glad to perform. It is one way they may help, in giving adequate and definite information, of making it easier for citizens to adjust themselves ’ to living and to aid their country by close coop eration plans. Read your local newspapers, wherever you may reside, then try to make it easier to win this war by cooperation—in carrying out, in spirit as well as in the letter, the many regulations that it has become neces sary for us to observe. ■ BHHpvSB* 4 * i • H ITT rrTTNßmiTrn ~ P ' omot “ Wa * Bofidt,- Urging farmer* to purcha.e War Bond* .very mar. ket day, tin* ttriking War Bond pottar will aerve a* a constant reiuindar of Ik. farmer’, .taka in tb.
