Department of Agricul ture, announcing its plentiful foods list for July, called the attention of shoppers to the wide variety of fresh and processed foods abundant on Southern markets, the local county and home demonstration agent for the State College Extension Service, said this week. Fresh vegetables listed for July, she said, include carrots, onions, Irish po tatoes, fresh corn, snap beans, beets, cabbage, lettuce, and tomatoes. The watermelon and cantaloupe sea son in the South will be in full swing in July and picnic planners can count on heavy supplies all during the month, the county agent said. Broilers and fryers are still in the plentiful class, as are dairy products, hens, eggs, peanut butter, fresh and frosen fish, and rice. i Local availability of the foods on the July plentiful list may vary from area to area because of transporta tion and buying preferences, but most markets in the South, the home agent pointed out; will have abundant sup plies of the listed foods. Shoppers who buy seasonally plen tiful foods will, as a rule, find them the most economical buys, he added. before the International Cancer Con gress, which will e in session ; in Paris, July 17-21. The paper will be presented by Dr. Mildred Schram. in charge -of the Cancer Section of the Personal Health Division, which is di rected by: Dr. George Cooper. , Y' The subject of Dr. SchraVs saner will te "An Experiment in MasB Screening of a Population for Can cer". Dr. Schram stated that she will be able to report on 14,600 examina tions, which have been made by the State Board of Health since the pro gram was activated in March, 1948. The report win show that three and one-half per cent of those ex amined were found to have cancer in some form. Three-fourths of ' all examinees were found to have some condition for further diagnosis and treatment' of which they were refer red to their personal physicians. Dr. Schram will emphasize that no treat ment is given in clinics and that all who were found in need of attention either for cancer or any other con dition are referred to their personal physicians. It will be brought out that more than half of all the cancers .found were early and in persons under sixty years of age. Thirty-six per cent of the cancers were found in men, who constituted pnly seventeen per cent cf all the examinees, lhis means, Dr. Schram says, that proportionately more cancers were found in men than in women. . North Carolina's stream-lined can cer detection program already has been given wide publicity, through the medical and lay press, in health paga sines and over the radio. North Caro lina's place on the Paris prczram however, i will bring this State's, can cer activities to the attention of an International group of 'Scientists." . It was pointed out by Dr. J. W, R. Norton, State Health Officer, that the active support of practicing physicians ia North Carolina gives added signifi cance , to this State's effort to detect cancer and bring it under control. "The North Carolina program,'!' Dr. Norton said, " is based on legislation pprv ed in 1945; but for .which 'air appro priation was not made until, 1947.

S. Dearstyne, head of the poultry department at State College. ' -rVJ'V Dearstyne says, his department in recent weeks has received correspond ence. .concerning geese from all 'sec tions of the State. This awakening interest, he adds, may lead to a flew infant industry in North Carolina. Geese usually are raised in small numbers on general farms. They are very hardy and quite resistant to di sease. Since they are good foragers and thrive on pastures, their dietary requirements are easily met. ; - , The birds commonly are known as 'hoe hands" because they are ' - ex tremely useful in clearing up the rows in cotton patches.1 The diet may be supplemented with home-crown grains or wet mash, i t ' ? f - Dearstyne says a gander may be mated ; with June to four geese r but pair or trio mating usually give the best results. Nests for geese are nro- vided in boxes or barrels on range or in the house, The natural method of incubation is used on farms when three to -seven eirsr are set under a hen or 10 to 16 under a gooses The period of incubation vanes from 20 day in the smaller breeds to about S5 days in the. larger breeds. ;, t S ; 4 DislriDa 1 Scheduled Iri Aufciist Dates for the I960 series of district unior dairy shows in North Carolina were announced this week by John A.
