Etheridge, head of the markets division of the State Department of Agriculture, has cautioned potato producers of this State against the careless handling of ' their crop. Etheridge declared that within recent weeks there has been a great loss of po tatoes on northern mark ets because of the use of improper methods of mar keting. “We have quite a few in experienced potato produc ers this year," said Ether idge, “and because of the fact that almost all pota toes are bringing the veil ing price, many of these growers are not exercising sufficient care in the hand ling of their potatoes." Pointing out that pota toes will not stand excess ive heat, he said that they should be dug only in the afternoon and evening. Hauling should begin early in the morning and should be completed before heat can affect the quality of the product. “We have found that it is wise to expose the pota toes to the night air, eo that they may become cool # NO MORE FIELD DAYS FOR DURATION OF WAR Raleigh, June 26.—There ' will be no more field days held at the various farms throughout the State for ; the dujratjon of the war,, Commissioner of Agricul ture W. Kerr Scott has an nounced. “The little gas which is available for the farmer is needed to bring his prod ucts to market and the pigs we barbecue for these ev ents are needed more some where else,” said Scott. Special instructional pro grams in line with increas ed production goals for the war effort will be held from time to time, the Com missioner explained.

Pota toes harvested at this time of the year are especially tender and should not be thrown into piles for this practice leads to skinning and bruising.” SUBSCRIBE TO THE RECORD WAR PRISONERS NEW BULLETIN IS LAUNCHED AT e- I **• d' mmmemema Red Cross Publication Going to Next of Kin of Prisoners of War Washington, D. C. —The American Red Cross is mailing the first copies of a new publication, “Prison ers of War Bulletin," to the next of kin of American j military men, civilian inter jnees and merchant seamen .'who have been reported of ficially as being prisoners | of war. In a foreword addressed . to the relatives of war pris oners, Chairman Norman H. Davig saiJ: “Our pur , pose in issuing this Bulletin is to give information, con ! sistent with war conditions, about, American prisoners of war and the methods for providing aid and comfort to them—paramount re sponsibilities of the Ameri can Red Cross. “We hope that anxious relatives of our men and women who are held in pri son or internment camps may find in these pages the answers to many questions. We believe it is important i for them to have an under- j standing of the internation-j id treaties- which govern; the treatment of prisoners! of war. The limitations, upon communications, im posed by war, which cause grief and anxiety, will be better understood after a perusal of these pages. We trust it will be possible _to bring comfort to many thr ough an exchange of corre spondence from prisoners whereby wider knowledge of conditions in many pris on camps may be obtained. “I wish to emphasize that one of the primary services of the international organi zation of the Red Cross is the protection of the lives and health of prisoners of, war. The Red Cross, there fore, renews to you its pledge to utilize every re source to deliver to Ameri can prisoners of war the supplementary assistance in the form of food, cloth-. - GARDEN CORNER - Dear Editor: By now those of us who] have not wearied with well doing should have fine gar dens and feel amply repaid 1 for hours spent in the sun, seeing one’s hands fast be-; coming a manicurist’s night: mare. .. But plant and still plant. There is no rest for the conscientious gardner. Keep putting in seed until July tenth. Where the pea vin es have been taken out, plant some vegetable not in the same family. I have wondered what to do with parsley when one raises an abundance of it.: Now we can drink it> and ; gain its benefits, for I am told it helps those with high blood pressure. For pars ley soup, grind a large bunch of parsley with two onions and a few radishes, if you have them. There should be a cup fult of the puree. Add two and a qua rter cups of milk, salt and peppar and let simmer until flavors blend. It’s good, but maybe we like any thing. v Nothing like pieping wild strawberries to show up one’s age. As a test of endurance and patience it should be included in com mando training. It has its advantages; a quiet time for retrospect while on a THE YANCEY RECORD PASTORS MEETING I On account of Rev.

An interesting fact in’ the tabulation kept by the | Division is the relatively large number of young ! girls licensed. Approxi mately ope jout of every 12 ! was a 15 year old girl The .’small number of negroes 'licensed in this age group is also interesting, - since only one out of every 54 was in this racial group. Commenting on the driv 'ing record to date of this iage group, Ronald Hocutt, Director of the Highway iSafety Division says: ‘The Division is main taining a separate record | file on the 15 year olds lic ensed, and to date no acci •dent report has been re ceived by the Division in volving a licensed 15 year old. “I want to urge all 15 year old licensed drivers to keep up their good record”, stated the Safety Director, “and keep ever in—mind that the safe driver is the best driver.” The 1943 General Assem [ bly amended the Uniform J Driver’s License Act auth orizing the Department of ! Motor Vehicles to issue dri ver’s license to persons 15 years old. Persons in this age group are restricted to operating vehicles “not ov er one and one-half tons in weight”. They are also not permitted to operate vehi ; cles hauling inflammable fluids such as gasoline, ker osene, etc.—nor explosives such as dynamite, etc. Since the question has of ten been asked regarding the operation of a school bus by a licensed 15 year old, Mr. Hocutt calls spec ial attention to t-he fact that a school bus weighs much more than one and one-half tons, therefore, may not legally be operated by a person only 15 years old.

LAPEL BUTTONS FOR 17 YEAR OLD AVIATION CADET RESERVISTS Atlanta, Ga., June 26- Young men 17 years of age who have enlisted in the Air Corps Enlisted Reserve will receive a handsome silver-finished lapel button to wear with their civilian dress until they are 18 and are called for active duty for training as an Aviation Cadet, Headquarters, Fou rth Service Command an nounced today.

How can you effectively join in saving all the little children of the world from hu man slavery, death and injury from the Nazis and Japanese? Put more and more of your pay into war bonds every payday. Your savings will go to war in the form of war equipment and other munitions. How much more should you put into war bonds? The only ones who can answer that are—you and your fam ily. It's up to you to decide just how much more you’ll do to win the war. If you were fighting in the Solo mons or in Africa or forcing a land ing in Europe you'd like to feel that the folks at home were hack of you —all the way—you'd be proud of your family and your friends if you 1 knew they were buying war bonds not at 10 per cent or 15 per cent, but with every cent beyond that which they need for necessities. ; U. S. Treasury Department
