PAGE SIX f Y-xm THE PERQUIMANS WEEKLY, HERTFORD, N. C., FRIDAY. . FEBRUARY H, 19a i y Wag Earner Reminded to File Income Return All wage earners nra reminded that the new 1943 individual income and victory tax rtunj(Manlc8 are on the pay-as-you-go fcasis and that returns are required by law teven though most wage earner? already have paid all or large jart pt their 1943 tax fcyrwithholdihgi foft their wages. Returns are also required by law even thoOgt ' estimated tax was paid on a 'Moderation? in September and December. This return must be filed before March 16. . - Returns are required by law of persons who during the calendar year 1943 (a) were single, and had 500 or more income, (b)were married and had more than $624 income, (c) were married and together with wife or husband had combined income of $1,200; .or more, or (d) paid or owed a tax on luri income, postpone ments orx extensions are, allowed for persons outside the country on March IS, especially members of the armed forces, and to the wife of a service man abroad if her own income was Jess than $1,200. All persons who filed income tax returns last March should receive by mail from the Collector of Internal Revenue with whom they filed their 1942 returns a statement showing the total' liability and the amount paid on their 1942 tax returns. This state ment (Form 1125) is not a bill. It is intended only as a convenience to the taxpayer, since it supplies two key figures needed for filling in a 1943 return. Good Quality Milk From Family Cows Milk and butter of good flavor and quality from the family cow may be produced in the home if it n) prop erly handled, -psyi 'A. C. Kimrajr, Extension dairtmtrt at State College. He gives a list of practical sug gestions for home milk handlers to follow in taking cars of their milk. First, he suggests that the milk be kept in standard glass bottles in the refrigerator or In ft backet or tub of cool water, where refrigeration is not available. Just after milking, Kimrey sug gests that the producer pour the milk through three or four folds of a good grade of cheese cloth. A small tin funnel can then be used for getting the milk into the bottles. It should then be capped with standard bottle caps. For cooling the milk, the bottles can now be placed in a tub of cold water,, for It cools more rapidly in this way than if put directly into the refrigerator. Where no refrigeration is available, Kimrey advises changing the water in the tub several times a day until the rhilk is cooled. After the milk has stood for about 12 hours, the cream can be removed from the bottles by using a gte siphon tube. This cream may be served for table use or allowed to sour for butter-making. Two quarts of such cream will make about one pound of butter. "There is a great deal of differ ence in the flavor of milk and butter produced in the farm home, but this is due not so much to the diets and characteristics of the cows producing the milk as to. the way in which the milk is handled," Kimrey says. Central PTA Meeting Next Monday Night The Parent-Teacher Association of the Perquimans Central Grammar School will hold its regular monthly meeting on Monday night, February 21, at 8 o'clock. The Belvidere community will have charge of the program for Founders' Day. Among the features on the Droiirram planned will be a candle light service with a Founders' Day offering, and vocal and instrumental music. There will also be a report from th Lunch Seem committee. Awards for Safety Posters judged at this meeting will be presented by the Safety chairman. All parents and interested people are urged to attend.

" ' ' 'VNorth Carolina peanut growers who treated their seed in 1943 had an average of 27 percent increase in stands. Dusting the peanut foliage will control leafspot, a disease which annually causes a reduction in yield as great as 200 to 500 pounds of peanuts and 400 to 800 pounds of hay per acre," Qarriss said. Arasan is the most desirable ma terial for treating the seed, but if this is not available, use a 2 percent Ceresan or Yellow Cuprocide. It will require 2 to 3 ounces of Arasan to treat 100 pounds of seed. This should not cost over 25 cents. Copper-sulphate dust mixtures give better leafspot control and higher yields than either copper or the sul phur dust alone. The cost of dust ing en acre will vary from $2.50 to' (4-00 per acre, depending upon th cost of Jthe material and the number of applications necessary , jBMitrol thft disease. tVanut 'grtttoert whd wish ihort del. led Information n peanut Reed tre. .me' fc nd Busting should Write to l.ie Agricultural Editb at SMe College tof It copy of the Tar Series Bulletin , No. 81 which has' Just been published.

For Home Gardens Gardeners who wish to put in as paragus, lettuce, strawberries and other small fruits not generally grown, should get busy at once, say Extension horticulturists at State College. They suggest that a wider variety of vegetables and fruits will notonly increase the food supply but will also add a delightful change to the family menu and make gardening much more interesting. ' A special War Series Bulletin, No. 30, has just been issued by the State College Extension Service to fill the needs of just such gardeners and it is free for the asking. Write the Agricultural Editor, State College, Raleigh, requesting a free copy of this bulletin. It contains interesting information on how the city gardener may con struct a frame garden. Tobacco growers will find that the tobacco plant bed is an excellent place for a frame garden and can be used to ad vantage in growing vegetables on the long, hot days in summer. The bulletin also contains informa tion on the growing of onions. The time of planting is February for the Tidewater and Coastal Plain regions; eoruary and March for the Pied mont region: and the lower altitudes of the mountains in February and me mgner altitudes in March. In growing onions . the gardener should be careful to follow the best methods of cultivation, harvesting, and curing and these are outlined in tne bulletin.

Reduce Egg Loss By Proper Feeding A large percentage of the egg losses due to cracking and breaking can be eliminated by proper feeding, suggests C. F. Parrish, Extension poultryman at State College. About 5 percent of all eggs produc ed are lost between the nest and the table, and most of this loss can be eliminated by feeding the flock a sufficient amount of vitamin D to en able them to utilize to full advantage the calcium in the oyster shell or ground limestone. "We are approaching the season of flush egg production," Parrish says, "and poultrymen should make every effort possible to reduce this loss be tween the nest and the table." Oyster shell or ground limestone, which should be before the flock at all time, is not enough in itself to eliminate thin-shelled eggs. There are several carriers of vitamin D such as feeding oil and, if the flock is producing many soft or thin shelled; eggs, it is advisable to mix thfir feeding oil or other source f vitamin D with the train every daf.
