MORE PULPWOOD
WANTED FROM NORTH
CAROLINA FARMS
Sharpen ' the axe. FRe
the saw. Begin cutting
more pulpwood for Uncle
Sam. These are sugges
tions made to North Caro
lina growers by R. W.
Graeber, extension forester
at N. C. State College.
The nation needs 13,000,
000 cords of pulpwood in
1943 to fill the require
ments of the armed ser-,
vices and civilians. The
farmer is asked by those
in charge of'war activities'
to enlist his saw and axe,
his muscle and Ids wood
lands, in the'fight to win
the war.
rkquii’rimwits for"
pulpwood are-many. It is
needed for making smoke
less powder; in rayon for
parachutes; in medicinal
products for treating sick
and wounded soldiers; as
blueprint* paper for the
planning.of ships and plan-'
es; as paper for shell cases;
and in a thousand other
new apd old wartime uses.
Os the recent African in
vasion convoy of about 800
ships, approximately 300
were . warships and 500
~~ were transports, whi c h
were loaded with, troops
and supplies. Much of
these supplies were protec
ted by shipping 4 containers,
’made ... front trees. New
mulfi-wallM bags niaile 'pf
paper are replacing metal’
drums. More and more;
products are being shipped
in kraft paper hags. |
There will be a shorrtage
of pulpwood, according to
Graeber. unless every - far
mer with a woodlot takes :
time to serve his country;
with - asw-vrit-x , team and
truck. Woods operations
fit .well with other form
work, j * *-

BEES NEED SPECIAL
CARE
Beekeepers “o f North
Carolina “should exert the
fullest possible effort i n
controlling bee diseases and
seeing to it that their bees
have proper care and at
tention this year,” P. G.
Craddock, State Apiary In
spector with the State De
partment of Agriculture,
declared in pointing out
that indifferent care may
; reduce the neat profits pos
sible in honey this year.
In localities where bee
diseases are present, effec
tive disease control is es
sential in order to have the
bees in condition to prod
uce maximum crops ; of
honey. Control of disease
apd ggftper appligatioh of :
other good l)eek<?§|dhg : pra* "
dices, will .... insure" strong
colonies of bees, which will
, produce ample honey if the
nectar is available.
_ Craddock is of the opin
ion that the two principal
diseases affecting bees in
North Carolina are. Ameri
can foulbrood and the Eu
ropean foulbrood. Both
are diseases which affect
the brood of young bees be
fore they have hatched 1
from the comb.
In order to detect the'
presence of either of these
diseases, it is necessary to
examinb first the brood
combs. The first indica-i
■ tmfi of the disease is usu
ally a few'-scattered cells of
dead brood. As the disease
progresses, more and more
of the larvae will be yfound
dead until all of them will
die before hatching from
the comb. The entire col
ony then becomes weaker
and finally dies.
Plans should also be
made to feed any bees that
may .need it. If colonies are
to be in “prime condition
for the honey flow,, it is
necessary that they have
ample food to build on dur
ing March and April, and
in the mountains In May.
Craddock suggested, that
any beekeepers of the
State needing assistance in.
diagnosing the various dis- 1
eases affecting their bees
get in touch with him by
writing the Apiary Inspec
tor. State Department of
! Agriculture, Raleigh.

The ordinary machine gun is too
cumbersome for our Marines, espe

Marines have adopted new models

The new gun used by the para

THE BIBLE
The Bible eentains the
mind of God, the state of
man, the way of Salvation,
the doom of sinners, the
happiness of believers. Its
doctrines are Holy, its pre
cepts are binding, its his
tories are true and its de
cisions are immutable.
Read it to be wise, be
lieve it to be safe, and prac
tice it to be Holy. It con
tains light to direct you,
food to .support you, and
, comfort to cheer you. It
is the traveler’s map, the
' pilgrims staff, the pilot’s
compass, the soldier’s sword
and the Christian’s charter.
Here paradise is restor
ed, Heaven opened, and the
gates of Hell disclosed.
Christ is its grand spirit,
our good its design and the
glory of God its end. It
should fill the memory, rule
the heart and guide the
feet. , •
Read the -Bible slowly,
frequently, prayerfully. Its
a mine of wealth and a
river cf pleasure. It is
given you in life, it will be
open at the Judgment and
be remembered forever. It
involves the highest re
sponsibility, rewards the
greatest labor, and con
demns* aH who trifle with
its Holy contents.
