time talking or arguing. Don't inter
fere with the wheels of industry

years or perhaps less.
We've got to build a great fleet of
airplanes: more than weve ever
dreamed we'd want at one time.
We must double the size of our
Navy. At least that's what Con
gress has voted to dp.'
We must produce tanks and guns;
trucks and motorcycles and dozens
of other machines vW to a modern
army. , ,
Wo must build barracks and taa
uniforms and weave blankets for an
army of more than a million men
before we even start to be strong
enough to live in the world as it is
today. x .
At the same time we are turning
out this vast array of equipment for
defense we must continue to produce
' for peacetime living, We must even
increase the amount of good com
fortable every-day things of life

TO BE DONE
we've been turning out the past ten
mm. . Wa must build stoves and
both room fixtures and refrigerators
for new homes and old. We must
produce cultivators and tractors for
farmers which will m turn be called
nnnn frtr greater nroduction. We
must weave silk and woolen and cot
ton for eood looking new clothes,
We must design and make costume
jewelry , and cosmetics as weu as
pots and pans if we women are to be
satisfield.
Because today, with so many
stranire
and unprecedented cnings
happening, our system of represen-1
tative democracy is in even greater
danger than our country itself! And
it is essential o sell ourselves on
the efficiency and adaptability of the
system of government under which
we became the world's economic
leader as it is to prove t the world
that we're too powerful to molest.
For what would it profit the
United States of America "Conceived
in liberty and dedicated to the pro
position that all men are created
equal" to build the greatest air
force in the world and lose her be
lief in the importance of the individ
ual man?
Wilson Brothers On
Mule Buying Trip
Frank and Trim Wilson left Hert
ford on Thursday for an extended
trip through several states for the
purpose of purchasing mules to be
placed at their Mule Exchange lo
cated here in Hertford.
They are expected back at the end
of next week, and stated that they
were expecting to have a carload of
mules here shortly after their re
turn. Chicks Need Heated
Water During Winter
An egg is 70 percent water!
That is a fact that C. F. Parrish
Extension poultryman of N. C. State
College, constantly impresses upon
poultry raisers in urging that they
provide their flocks with plenty of
clean water in convenient fountains.
Now, with the approach of winter,
Parrish adds this suggestion:
"Arrange for some heated water
fountains for the flock to use when
cold weather arrives. Water con
sumption is greater when the chill is
taken off, and the more water a hen
drinks, the more and, the larger her
eggs."
The specialist also warns that
drafts through openings in the back
and ends of the laying house should
be eliminated by closing such open
ing's. "Winter is the time to make
money from egg production, when
the supply is short," he says, "lhere
is a surplus of eggs in the State
only during about six weeks in the
SDring. That leaves about 46 other
weeks in the vear that our homes
and home markets are not amply
suoDlied with quality eggs.
"By selecting chicks of good
breeding, and by proper housing and
feeding, the farm flock can be man'
acred so as to produce eggs every
month in the year. The great need
ia for summer and fall eggs. If the
flock is hatched early in the sum'
mer. more care is necessary to pre
vent partial or complete molt in the
fall. However, this can be done
quite successfully by the use of wet
mash and lights on the laying flock.
"Plan now ' produce eggs during
the 'other 46 weeks in the year and
to supply broilers and fryers ac
cording to the needs of your local
market'.'
Free Building Plans
Offered To Farmers
Prof, pavid S. Weaver, .head of
the Department of Agricultural En
gineering at N. C. State College, has
renewed the offer of his" department
to supply" building plans free to
farmers through their county agents
and he announces that 150 or more
new plans are available.
The new plans are illustrated in a
book .'just published by the XL. S. De
partment of Agriculture, containing
a wide range of designs for farm
buildings and oauinment ' w-r from
eight-room dwellings to hog troughs,
and gates. .The V, 8. D. A, book

HTY. Floyd, AAA(' executive bffi--r
nf N. C. State College, has call
ed unon county , and community
Trln1-A committeemen . and' county
farm agents to begin preparations
for the cotton referendum which will
be held December 7. ' Cotton grow
ers throughout toe Nation 'will vote
t w. time on whether they wish a
marktinir auota to apply to their
1911 cron.
rvtHnn mirltAtinff - auotas have
been in effect for, the past three
years. The 1940 quota was approv
ed last fall by 91.2 percent of the
Nation's rrowers. North Carolina
farmers gave quotas a, 89.8 vote of
approval, 60,737 voting lor quotas
and only 5,767 voting against quotas.
"The secretary of agriculture de
clared a 1941 marketing quota in

American cotton on August 1, 1940,
totaled 24,900,000 bales, or 137 per
cent of the 'normal' supply. Under
the Agricultural Adjustment Act a,
quota must be declared when sup
plies reach 107 percept ef normal.
"The National quota for 1941 is
the same as the one in effect this
year, and wflll make possible the
marketing, through the quota pro
gram, of about 12 million bales dur
ing the year beginning August 1,
1941. This will mean that individ
ual farm allotments will remain the
same in 1941 as they were in 1940."
Floyd further pointed out that,
with marketing quotas in effect,
farmers who olant within their allot
ments may market without penalty
all .ton which they produce in
1941. Farmers who overplant their
acreage allotments or who have
penalty cotton from a previous crop
must pay a penalty of 8 cents per
pound on all cotton marketed in ex
cess of their farm marketing quotas.
made through county farm and home
agents of the Extension Service.
"This will eliminate extended cor
respondence," he said, "because we
have, for instance, 15 farm dwell
ings in the new U. S. D. A. list and
52 farm dwellings in our North Car
olina, list. They range from two to
eight-room houses. When a farmer
writes in for a set of plana for a
dwelling, we seldom have any way
of knowing which of the 67 blue
prints on file to send him. '
"Bv looking over the illustrated
list of plans in, the new U. S. D. A.
book, and then by studying the de
scriptions of the 314 plans in the
North Carolina bulletin, he should
be able to select exactly the plan
best fitting his needs."
