LIBRARY CORNER Library Hours: 12:00-7:00 Inky And Pinky, by' Charims, is the story atput two little sis ters. They were twins. Jane was the name of one and Judy was the name of the other. Jane was very, very good but sometimes Judy was very, very bad., Inky and Pinky, the kittens, change the bad and the good. All the animals on Mother Etienne’s farm were treated with loving care and rare attention. And so, when pdor Yollande shivered and suffered in the poultry yard after Germaine, thinking her dead, had plucked her, Mother Etienne came kind ly to her rescue. She contrived ; for Yollande a handsome ward-1 robe and kept her happily by her fire side. Vimar’s The Curly Haired Hen, is a tale of chuck- j ks. - | Fiddle Away, by May Justus, | tells the story of the chorus of! an old mountain ballad that' 1 drifted up the hollow. The’ “Swapping Song", which was Joe John’s favorite fiddle tune was most often heard. Merry words', and a merry tune when played on his old red fiddle, but' somehow they sounded rather doleful when we enter the story. Following the adventures of two children. Around The Clock, with Lora Z. Jackson makes it' easy to learn how to tell time. I Beautiful photographs and a' simple story dramatize the hours lef the day, and on each paga with each adventure, a clock I shows the time. R&ielmd Rosebud is eight, and the most beautiful shade of caramel fudge. To her loving Mammy and Pappy she is known, on approximately al ternate days, as "Angel” and "You devil child”. It was on her devil child days that Rosebud tied the knots in the shirts that Mammy had taken in for washing, and poured the whole of the vanilla bottle into the lamb stew, just, she said later through bitter tears, to "flavor it up some”. On her angel days Rosebud is equally imaginative even if a more restful occupant of the little shack down on Vinegar Hill. Once when t Mammy was out doing day work. Rosebud got a wave of cleaning , fever and scoured fXi every pot and pan Slj in the kitchen so If that they literally glistened. Anoth er day, left alone, she tidied up Mammy’s and Pappy’s room to such a point of apple-pie order that it was a week before Pappy could find an undershirt. Rosebud is a great reader of the newspapers. Mammy and Pappy don’t take one, but there are plenty of perfectly good newspapers blow ing round Vinegar Hill. It was out of one of them that Rosebud got her j idea for spending the ten cents the ! Bunny had put under her pillow the i night her tooth came out. After break fas Rosebud disappeared down the Hill and reappeared soon after with a beautiful ten-cent War Stamp pasted firmly into a brand-new book with neat little squares for more stamps. She displayed her invest ment to Mammy. “I declare you're an angel child,” Mammy said. Rose bud went on sitting on the kitchen floor staring with large brown eyes at the empty squares in her book. From time to time she took hold of one or another of her teeth and wiggled it, gently. Mammy was engrossed in a par ticularly big washing. Rosebud was as quiet as a mouse and Mammy forgot about her until, coming in from the yard with her arms full of dry sheets, she encountered her child with a large hammer in her hand. Scenting the devil in her angel child, Mammy shouted at her, ‘‘Rosebud! Come yere with that hammer! What you planning on doing?” But what was done was done. In Rosebud’s other hand was another tooth. Her mouth was stretched in a broad if slightly bloody smile. “I ain't doing nothing, Mammy,” she said. "I’m just'filling up my stamp book.” (Story from an actual report in the files of the Treasury Depart ment.) • • • Say yes. Take your change in War Stamps. Tour investment in War Bonds today will save a payday for tomorrow. c. S.

Feed at east twice as many hogs as needed for home con sumption and sell surplus. 2. Keep (one or more brood sows and breed twice a year. 3. Hog feed has advanced 18 percent' since January 1942, the price of pork 25 percent. Feeder pigs' can be bought and raised at a profit. A simple self feeder savieg labor. A mineral mixture: of 10 lbs. ground limestone, 2 lbs. salt and 5 lbs. steamed bone meal should be kept before them* at all times. Green crops for grazing greatly reduces feed cost. Beef Cattle 1. The Farmers Mutual Ex change will ](ean to approved j keepers several purebred beef 1 bulls. If your community does! not have one investigate this j plan. 2. Grow veal calves to weigh I 200 to 300 pounds and d'iseon- j tinue sale of good heifers. Broilers j 1. Utilize tobacco barns, brick I brtcoders or lamp brooders as i wartime measures to produce | 2 1-2 to 3 pound broilers.

Our Slogan: ‘‘A Ton |cf Meat : From Every Farm (Tobacco j farmers included) (4 cattle ox, i 8 hogs or 800 broilers will pro duce a ton of meat). MILK Dairy Cows 1. Produce more hay, dig a i trench silo, plant temporary and ] permanent pastures, feed one j pound concentrates to every 3 pounds of milk. 2. While beef prices are high cull out low producers and re- ' place with heavy milkers. 3. A high producing bull costs little more than a scrub-use the best. 4. Do not sell heifers for veal, raise them up and add, a few more gallons to your milk route. The price of milk is up 16 per cent above last year, while the price of feed has advanced only 12 1-2 percent. 5.

Let’s all help increase pro-'| duction. : FEED Crops and Pasture 1. Success in livestock depends on growing an ample supply of feed and pasture. 2. If you are short on small grain this year make it up in corn. 3. Grazing crops are the most’ economical. Plant temporary pas tures fbr supplemental grazing. An electric fence with a small supply of wire can be moved a round. f 4. Permanent pastures are necessary. Good ones must' be l supplied with phosphate and lime. A simple wartime pasture, mixture for one acre is: 5 pounds Orchard grass, 4 pounds of Blue grass, 8 pounds Herds grass, 10 pounds Lespede za, 1 pound White Clover and 5 pounds Rye grass. EGGS Hens 1. Due to war there is a short age of some ingredients in all poultry feed. It is essential to supplement this feed with home grown green feed. Make plans to do this now. This is important. 2. Provide ample house space, wat?r and balanced feed at all times. 3. Give an extra care to sani tation. It’s mighty easy Do relax when help is short. 4.
