' .n tl.. - - ttOula s'.k. .s, it ui comfort.. ; to know that one in expensive, nutritious food i plenti ful." iM. E, Gardner, head 4 of the horticultural 'department' at. c, State College in making this statement , adds that a special week, October 26 -November 2, has been set aside in Naming Hallowe'en, ; October SI, as Apple Day, the International Ap ple Association has revived an ' old custort which lay dormant during the "war years in re-establishing National Worth Carolina's apple crop, Gard iner says, like that in most other , apple-producing areas stretching even into Canada,' shows prospects .' of being .quite good this year after T a poor season a year ago. He em- - phasizes that apples may be used in a number of ways in cooking to stretch whaf otherwise might ' be . skimpy menus due to the severe food shortages this fall. In addition, he says, long noted , for "keeping the doctor away", is in deed a nutritious, healthful food. One ..' of its chief values to the human diet is its contribution of Vitamin A. Some varieties of apples have been found to rate higher than oranges in this necessary nutrient. Vitamin A , la essential to the respiratory sys tem of the human body. f, As with all foods, apples will pro bably average higher this year than In the years before the war, but be cause of the plentiful supply pro duced in our own mountain sections - they should be less expensive on North Carolina markets than many other imported foods', Gardner concludes.

Just send a postcard to the Ag ricultural Editor, State College, Ral eigh, and ask for Extension Circular No. 262, entitled "The Farm Pork Supply."-Vtp,; f'sjjity'i ... This publication gives a list of equipment needed for butchering on the farm, how to butcher" the hog and cut up the carcass, information on rendering lard, curing of the pork by day curing or brine curing, and other such information. It is free for the asking. County Agents also have copies of : this publication in their offices.' ' jj . The publication also contains ten photographs on how to cut up the hog. Better yet, farmers can. attend one of the meat cutting demonstra tions now being held in many coun ties. At a recent short course for freezer locker people at State College, Dr.1 Dan Brady, in charge of meats re search, gave a series of meat cutting demonstrations in which this freezer locker employees obtained much practical experience by actually cut ting the meat under Brady's supervision. it morel ..., J I For the 4945 crop, h, , enough certified seed was availaL , to plant hybrid' cor oh one Lout of every 10 ! 1 . ...r XT I--- ..11 If or ah even greater production with approximately 50,000 , bushels ,of the seed to be available. - ; ?, .

Joe MarsEl Are Returning Veterans ''Different"? During the war yon heard a lot boat how hard it was going to be fer returning veterans to get ad Justed t civilian lif e . . . how they'd be "different," Well, plenty of them have re turned to our town, and a finer, steadier bunc,h you couldn't ask for. Most of them are back at the same jobs . . going with the same nice home-town girls (get ting married, some of them, and setting up families) . . . renewing the same old friendships. Even their amusements are the same. Nothing more exciting than fishing Seward's creek or pitch ing horseshoes . . . enjoying aa outdoor barbecue with friendly wholesome beer and pleasant talk. If they've changed at all it's in the direction of maturity and tol erance . . . tolerance for everything except dictators, and those who would destroy our demecratie principles of live and let live. And from where I sit, that's another reason to be rroud of them. ( y am. Special Sprayers Urged For Using 2, 4-D Poison The new 2, 4-D weedkiller cannot be satisfactorily washed out of equip ment in which it has heen used and it is therefore necessary to keep a special sprayer for this material, . ays Howard R. Garriss of State Col lege, Extension plant pathologist. The same sprayer should not be used for applying the 2, 4-D spray to kill weeds and then for applying in secticides and fungicides on vege ables and other crops. "You- can wash and wash the prayer, and enough of the 2, 4-D hemical will remain in the sprayer o cause detrimental effects on de sirable plants," Garriss says. "There have been several cases where people have used the weedkiller, washed out the sprayer, and then sprayed toma toes and other crops with bad results. So perhaps, if the 2, 4-D weedkiller s used, a sprayer must be kept for FOR' SALE. CHAIRS, . METAL folding. Used. Good condition. Special prices for ' large orders. C. M.
