EDITORIAL COMMENT
After World War II a
young man was discharged
from an Army hospital with
both legs amputated. His future
looted so black that he gave up
all previous dreams' or ambi
tions. Since he had not com
pleted high school, he settled
down to living on his pension
jmd earning a few cents selling
newspapers on street corners.
One day a man, a total stranger
urged him to finish his high
scool training. After much urg
ing and persuasion, he finally
agreed to complete his high
school work by correspondence.
He made such high gradeg that
he received a scholarship to a
small college.
A few years later, the strang
er wrote, “This js a red letter
day. The young handicapped
soldier whom I talked into
finishing his high school, just
graduated from one of the
country’s leading universities
with a doctor’s degree.’’
This is a true story and an ex
ample of what a little education
counseling can do. Undoubted
ly a number of very bright
youngsters in our own county
are missing an opportunity to
get started just for the want
of a litle encouragement and
guidance on a brilliant career.
Who knows but that one of the !
boys or girls in Yancey County
who is allowed to drop out of
school this year might, if en
couraged to continue, become
a person of whom we would
say proudly, “He came f,rom
our county.”

Are your pastures good this
fall? The cheapest source of
feed for a dairy cow is good pas
ture but in the fall they gtet
tough and it is harder for cows
to get enough to furnish as
large a part of the necessary
nutrients as earlier in the year.
'Dry cows are often neglected
and they actually need better
feeding and care than one that
is milking. She has a big job to
(do then —the calf to be grown
and her body, to be rebuilt for
a long lactation. Don’t neglect
this important time, il men
tioned Wentz Mclntosh last
•week. He religiously feeds
hi 9 dry cows on D&F and ’his
cows are beginning to show re
sults that were hard to im
agine a year ago. His dry cow
feeding is paying big divi
dends. f Vi| .
