,>? FOUR VITAL SUBJECTS
‘ » » r.
The proposed new state constitution. taxation, edu
cation and public utilities are the four vital aubjecta to
be discussed by men “in the know" at-the convention of
Yount Democrats to be held at Aaheville the leaf of
thie week. "Yount Democrats” aeems to be a misnomer
for this organization. The speakers as well as a great
majority of those who attend are not "boys’* by any
means. Real students of these problems of govern
ment will lead the discussions and we dare say they will
handle,fjjbjeets that are uppermost in the minds of the
pgopli^^thef are men who can speak with authority
and Iris Interesting to note that old men. experienced
in handling affairs of state, are inclined to favor new
and advanced Ideas in government. There has never
been a period ih the hietory of the state end netion
when such a change in government was under way.

ANTICIPATION
livery fisherman and hunter know* that the joy we
g$ out of Ufe is not the joy we aimed for but greater.
TI|e same with good workmen who at the beginning
wdrk wen thft they may prosper in the end but find ae
th» years pass that the real joy was in the labor, not
labor’s wagee.
|} Anticipated pleasures and joya are never realised,
fog anticipation ever builde higher and More beautiful
eaitlea than realisation, albeit anticipation builde hers
of air. It is therefor# the unexpected joy, the unantici
pated reward that brings happiness undiluted.
j These dispatches of delight are lika the unheralded
lefters from the long misting or bringing much wiehed
fofr but unexpected news. What boy or girl will forget
the ptiae won in echool end the finding under the Christ
mas tree the very gift they had hardly dared dream of?
* "Oh, the unexpected joye that meet ue juet around
thpioorner of life," is fhs favorite motto of Helen Keller,
the deaf, dumb and blind philanthropist.
So is it in life a good policy to expect the unexpect
ed by preparing for it. Often the last key on the ring
opens the lock.
; NOBLESSE OBLIGE FINDS THE DIAMOND
Veteran bun players who occasionally release A rAAd*
able memoir—for one of the magazines, never fill to
marvel At the way the once rowdy feme of bAeeball hAA
bcfen cleaned up and placed on a basis of sportsmanship.
They recall the era when it was considered smart base
ball to gouge the second baseman with your spikes, or
to hold the runner on base by hooking your hand through
his belt, or to concoct elaborate and unfair devlcee to
raaz the pitcher.
That kind of thing is no more, and the game la
better.. Ju^t.how important we consider Sportsmanship
inithe game today was handsomely illustrated last week
when, after an unfortunate howdy-do In the Gastonia
Sttelby American Legion game, Gastonia sent a delega
tion of her most prominent citizens to apologize to
Shelby.
[ Gastonia didn’t wait for protest or recrimination,
biit forthwith dispatched her newspaper editor, her
athletic director, a representative of the police depart
min tv and a letter from her mayor, to tell Shelby they
were sorry. Certainly they did everything gentlemen
eah do 16 make amends, and we know that Shelby
esfeems them highly for their action.
The fault did not lie with the Legion, but, as we see
it,'with an umpire and with a policeman. The apology is
all'the,more impressive as a gesture of noblesse oblige.
REHABILITATION
, A charter for incorporation ha- been granted to the
N. ,C- Rehabilitation Corporation, classified as benevolent
ifld non-profit, "to rehabilitate individuals and families
aa self-sustaining human beings by enablinf them to se
cure subsistence and gainful employment from the soil,
from co-ordinated and affiliated Industries and enter
prises and other wise in accordance with economic and
social standard of eltitenship."
The charter contains its own editorial comment.
Here, clearly, is shown the workings of the New Deal
philosophy, and the intentions of enlightened socialism.
The corporation is empowered, under this charter,
‘to buy, lease, acquire by gift... sell,, mortgage . . . or
dispose of lend in North Carolina."
The object of this corporation is to aid in establish
ing rural industries, such as canning plants to process
the products of rehabilitation farms and gardens, and to
assist financially and otherwise the relief families who
have been established on these farms. If can even
organise subsidiary corporations and set up community
agencies. The corporation will racelve grants of money
from the FEftA and other sources.
All this seams, vastly exciting to us for three reas
ons: it means the rehabilitation of destitute and des
perate people, who will be taken from breadlines to self
supporting farms; it means a great step toward abolish
ing the tenant farmer system; and It means, we hope,
the rehabilitation of many thousands of acres of idle and
eroding land.
ftemamber, more than half of the farmers in this
state are tenants, members of a floating population, in
secure, unstable, not ever the best potential citizens.
The rehabilitation program sets up families with a
chance of owning their own lands, a chance of becom
ing mernbere of communities.
And recall, too, what the erosion problem is. Engi
neers have estimated that, unless something is done to
check its steady flow in Cleveland County, this vast, cot
ton producing area will in twenty years be fit for noth
ing save cattle graelng.
As for the rehabilitation families themselves, we
have a grand example right before us. Seventy-five
relief families have been established on the farms ,and
they are all doing well. They are off the relief rolls,
moat of them permanently off.

Less Milk Is Used j
When It’s Not Fresh!
Great Los* Caused By Careless
Handling—How to Keep Milk
Fresh and Clean.
(By Extension Department)
Th* rapid souring of milk hand
led carelessly has been given as a
chief reason why milk consump
tion is low on many farms.
Unsanitary and slightly soured
milk is not palatable and it is easy
tt> see why farm families whose milk
Is not cared for properly do not
drink as much milk as they should,
says A. C. Klmrey, extension day
men st State College.
To keep milk clean and fresh. It
should be strained through at least
three thicknesses of fine cheese
cloth immediately after milking.
Klmrey said. It should ,th?p be
poured >n standard-size quart milk
bottles anc). pealed with standard
bottle egos ‘
Then tfte JjgilSfclrs should Be placed
in the coldest water Available ahd
allowed to 8$ol. The water should
be ehaniffcd a# often as necessary
to bring the rrtllk rapidly to the
- temperature' ^/ IK# water.
On fafjjfis where ice |s kept, the
milk should be placed’’in the ice
box and after it has been cooled by
water. Where ice is not kept, the
milk aHMdB be left in cold water
until It is Id be used.
The cream can be poured from
the bottles and kept for churning
or other' purposes. The rapid Cool
ing of milk in bottles will cause the
crlam to rise more quickly and
. completely than is the ease when
milk i* not cooled and where it is
stored in latfe vessels, such as buck
ets or cans '
Milk thus handled Is completely
sealed from dust, odors, or other
form of contamination. It will be
found much more convenient for
the housewife to handle milk in
bottles than in the usual way. Kim*
rty said.
Milk That Keeps;
Big Demand For It
sale of Evaporated Milk Increased
85 Per Cent In The Paat
Four Years.
His friends laughed at him when
he sat down to propound a new
Idea about milk. That waa 50 yean
ago In St. Louis where John Meyen
berg had traveled from Swltaerlgnd.
tie had figured out A way to make
milk “keep" by sealing It. Out of
that Idea, according to the Con
sumers’ counsel, of the Agricul
tural Adjustment Administration,
has come a tremendous Industry.
As against the decline of most milk
products during the depression, the
evaporated milk industry increased
85 per cent from 1929 to the figure
of one and a half billion pounds
in 1933.
Ill 1938. When a quart of milk
cost 10.8 cents, having dropped from
the average of 14 cents In 1929, the
price of a 14 1-2 ounce can of evapo
rated milk cost 6.6 cents as com*
pared to ii cents.for a 16 ounce-cau
IP 1929. The shrinkage 6f eonsuPt*
era' incomes has been the godfather
of the evaporated milk industry.
Evaporated milk is just ordinary
milk minus about 00 per cent of its
water, sterilized, and under Gov
ernment standards as to the milk
fat percentage. Research shows
that the vitamin content is some
what lower, due to the heating pro
cesses. However, it is a good source
of vitamins A and G. Like all milk
it needs to be supplemented by
foods rich in vitamins B. C. and D
Plant More Cowpeas j
On Vacant Acres
Ccwpel Is Good Croft Oft Retired
Lands and Can Be Planted
Ih July.
The Cowpea is a food crop to
plant In Jul yon land retired from
the cultivation of cotton, tobacco,
corn, or wheat, says E. c. Blair, |
extension agronomist at State Col-1
lege. •
He warned of the poor policy of
allowing the retired acres to grow
up in weeds, which not only de
tract from the appearance of the
farm, but also make It harder to
cultivate the next crop grown.
Weeds add little, if any, to the
soil's fertility, but a good growth
of cowpeas turned under will furn
ish as much nitrogen to the eoil
as 300 pounds *df nitrate of soda to
the acre, Blair said
Cowpeas planted in July will have
time to reach a height of three feet
before froet. he said, and will add
to the general tilth of the soil by
supplying organic matter as well as
nitrogen.
The latest rules governing land
retired from the production of basic
crop6 under AAA contract* permit
the picking of peas front the vines
for table use or the harvesting of
the whole crop for hay, provided it
is used at home and not sold.
in the mid-west the recent
drought has caused a shortage in
feed crops this year and the price
of these commodities is expected to
be unusually high this fait. Blair
warned that no North L’ircfina
farmer should fall to produce:
enough feed for his own use and
thereby have to pay the high mar
ket prices for feed,
