STATE COLLEGE HINTS TO FARM HOME MAKERS By Ruth Current ~ * N. C. State College In spite of the publicity given to War Bonds, there is still considerable misun derstanding about them. Here are some of the ques tions most frequently ask ed home agents and sugr gested answers to them: 1. What kind of govern-; ment bonds should a farmj family buy? War Bonds are the saf est investment ever offered farm people. Just like a $lO bill, a War Bond is the promise to pay by the strongest government i n the world, but unlike the $lO bill, the War Bond pays interest and if lost or de stroyed will be replaced. 2. “I bought a SIOO Lib erty Bond back in 1918 and when I came to sell it, I got only $83.50 for it. Will that happen to these E Bonds?” ' _ - -f ' ; L War Bonds are not sub ject to market price fluc tuations. A Series E Bond may be redeemed at any time after 60 days from is sue and the owner will al ways get at least as much as he paid for it. Interest accrues to the bond by increases in the re demption value after the first year and at the end of each half-year period there after until the bond deemed or matured, I n other words the bond ‘'puts on w r eight” and if kept up til maturity will return $4 for every $3 invested. The owner of a bond can redeem it with the United States Treasury but he can not sell it to anyone else. 3. “Should I buy War Bonds or pay debts?” Get debts into shape and then build up a financial re serve in War Bonds. Get ting debts into shape, how ever, should not necessarily mean getting entirely out of debt. If all of any in creased income available is paid on a mortgage, it will probably be necessary after the war to borrow again to replace and repair equip "Thent and buildings at a time when it may not be so easy to increase a mort gage as it, was to reduce it. When4i|e|v'ar ends, a re asonably sreed mortgage and a good reserve in War Bonds is likely to be a bet ter combination than no mortgage and no bonds. SWEET POTATO The sweet potato is now recognized as the South’s greatest food crop in that it gives the largest returns per acre in nutritious food, says J. Y. Lassiter, Exten sion horticulturist. BERRIES It is important to give bramble fruits good care now, says C. F. Williams, Extension specialist in Hor ticulture, as during the fall the fruiting surface for next year is developed. i ___ _____ . - : i T ■ -* " Jpr I “This War Will Become Bigger and Tougher. .T 1 During the Long Months to Come”' |, BL&L jes ..... ; t ... v i L -:■ ' Franklin D.
