. Harvesting of North Caroline1!
peanut crop, except for a few scat
tered lots, has been completed, and
the bulk of the crop moved to clean
ers and shelters. Demand for clean
?
ed goods continues in excess of
available offerings. Many manufac
turers holding contracts for peanuts
or peanut butter to be delivered to
the armed- forces are obtaining
stocks under priority. Most mills
are booked to capacity for some time,
with very little stock available for
C.
current shipment. All sales of clean
ed and shelled goods during the
week have been at the ceiling, with
all future orders booked at the ceil
ing, effective when shipped.
LOOKING AT
WASHINGTON
(Continued From Page Six)
differ. They existed long before
Pearl Harbor but nobody suggested
that we go to war about them. In
fact, so long as the evil aggressors
did not directly attack us, many
Americans were doing their best .to
keep the nation from recognizing its
danger, much less the peril of other
peoples.
There has been considerable con
fusion about the first World War be
cause of the idea that we entered the
conflict to make the world safe for
ft
ft
ft
ft,
ft
ft
ft
ft
ft
ft
ft
ft
democracy. This was a result of our
victory, not a cause of our entry.
We entered that war, as this, be
cause of the danger to the security
of this nation. In removing our
peril we automatically made the
world safe for democracy but the
ft
ft
ft
ft
ft
people of this country, like those of
Great Britain and France, did not
keep it safe.
The present war will end in a
glorious victory for us, fully justi
fying every sacrifice, when we un
seat the bloody freebooters who now
operate the German and Japanese
governments on the same principle
that animated the pirates of the
Spanish main. In eliminating them
from the world we will make the
globe safe for democracy again and
thereby secure another opportunity
to keep, it safe.
This will not be accomplished by
attempting to force our ideals and
our ideas of government upon any
people. It will not be gained by im
puting self-righteousness to the
United States and iniquity to our
allies. It will not be won by trans
lating a war in self-defense into a
"noble crusade" for "moral leader
ship," which cannot be won by war
fare. ft

Nitrogen And Potash
Increase Corn Yields
J. C. Wells was one of the 364
Cherokee County farmers selected to
test the value of TVA ammonium ni
trate as a top dressing for corn this
year. He also used some muriate of
potash and found that both materials
gave him good increases in corn
yields.
The field on which the test was
made had been in red clover and les
m ...
peaeza ior lour years and had re
ceived 200 pounds or 45 per cent
phosphate and 2 tons of lime, ac
cording to County Agent A. Q. Ket
ner of the State College Extension
ft
service, lo get accurate measure
ments the corn was shucked and
weighed in the ear.
The check plot with no ammonium
nitrate and no potash yielded 49
bushels per acre, because the land
ft
ft
was in a relatively high state of fer
tiUzation. The addition of 100
pounds of muriate of potash raised
the yield to 59 bushels, while 100
pounds of ammonium nitrate brought
the yield to 62 bushels. The plot
