Vote For OSCAR 0.EFIRD He lias served an a trial judge for 14 y?*ars and formerly was a law teacher ut the University of North Carolina. His home town newspaper has this to *ay ahout him: " In native ability , knoulcdise of the laic, character, expert' ence and temperament. Judge Oscar O. Kfird it one of the best- fitted men for a Supreme Court pout among all the late yen and jurists of North Caro lina. " ? (From an editorial in the Winston-Salem Journal) (CHt?r O. Kfird) Associate Justice of the Supreme Court JUDGE OSCAR O. EFIRD ANSWER: Yes, says John M. Curtis, marketing specialist for the State College Extension Ser vice. First, place a sample of the grain in a small glass bottle with some ammonium chloride. Sec, ond, make the bottle airtight by closing the opening. Third, shake the bottle 50 times. If the ammo nium chloride becomes damp, the grain is too wet to store safely. A more accurate check can be obtained through the use ol a moisture tester, but the ammoni um chloride method is quick, easy, and can be made on the farm. QUESTION: How should 2,4-D be used to control weeds in corn? ANSWER: Apply hatf a pound per acre of amine 2,4-D while the weeds are smalL This will con trol cockelbur, morning glory, giant ragweed, common rag weed, lambsquarter, and pig weed. Cost ol the chemical pro bably will be less than $1 an acre. Some common weeds such as smartweed can be controlled with three-fourths to one pound of amine 2,4-D if the chemical is applied when the weed is in the two-or three-leaf stage. Establlsh el grasses cannot be controlled with 2,4-D at rates which can be used in corn. According to the United States Bureau of Public Roads the lar gest proportion of revenues for highways must be obtained from automobiles and relatively light trucks. f See these "OUTING Advertised in AND We have 'em CAMP STOVE LANTIRK Used and endorsed by leading outdoorsaien everj where !

Gastanla Social Security Officii (A representative ot the Social Secur ity Administration U In Kings Moun jin on each tint and third Wednes day* ot IS a. m. Ot City Hall.) June graduates of high schools vocational schools and colleges are urged to apply i or their soc ial security account ? number cards before they graduate Also, students who are not graduating this June but who expect to work during their summer va cations should obtain their cards before classes end. Seasonal workers, who expect to be em ployed for the first time on Jobs covered by social security, should likewise apply early. Many prospective employees will not hire a person unless he has his social security account-num ber card with him, and many a good job has been loat this way. Miss Margaret H. Lowder, manager of the Gastoriia' social security office, says that the im portance of the account number lies in the fact that wages can only be credited through the Use of the account number. Since the money recorded in a person's social security account is used to- figure 'benefits, 1 he more mon ey credited in the account the higher the benefits. Til US, if for! any reason wages are reported without an account number or with an incorrect number, then these wages may not be credit ed to the account. Not only may future benefits be smaller be cause of this, but in some cases no benefits- may be payable at all. Miss Lowder says: "Remember that your social security account number Curd is the key to all future benefits for you and your family. Protect it, keep with you at all times, show it to your employer when necessary, and above all, get in touch with the Gastonia social security office if you need help. Or see our representative who visits the City Hall at Kings Mountain at 10:00 a. m. the 1st and 3rd Wed nesdays of each month.'' Warning Given On Sciewwoims Seratcehes, sores, aftid other open wounds of farm animals should be treated promptly dur ing warm weather to prevent in festation with screworms, says George D. Jones, entomologist for State College Extension Ser vice. The recommended material, according to Jones, is KQ-325, ? which contains lidane and is applied to wounds as a smear,. Once-a-week application will con troll all but. the ;nost severe cases. Most local dealers will have EQ-235 on hand. The adult screwworm fly does not survive winter temperatures in North Carolina, but infested animals can bring -the pest in from the deep .South, where it lives the ye.tr round. Specialist Jones says related species of flies may also infest wounds during . the summer months. Hence owners are cautioned to examine their live stock every day for evidence of wounds not healing satisfactor ily Screwworm infestions can be identified by the while, flat, shingle-like masses of eggs that the parent flies attach to the edge of an open wound on an animal, or by the screwworths themselves which are a nearly transparent white, becomming a pinkish color as they mature. The maturo screworms, about half an inch long, leave the wound, dig into the soil and go into a resting state. The adult fly comes out in about 10 days ,and is soon ready to start a .new life cycle >by laying eggs on wounds of animals.

Good Pastures Will Lower Dairy Costs If Tar Heel dairymen are to compete with other sections of the country, they must lower their milk production costs and increase their net income. ? This is the opinion of A. C. Kinney, dairy specialist for State College Extension Service. "The greatest single thing that can be done," says Kimrey, "is to provide enough pasture for at least seven months of profitable grazing during the year. Also, there must be an abundance of high-quality legume roughage for winter feeding." > Kimrey asserts that the cheap, est source of nutrients for milk production is grass, which can be produced anywhere in North Car olina when the dairyman is will ing to devote good land to pasture building. "Profitable pasture can nn more be built on poor soil than can a profitable corn crop be produced on such soil," declares the specialist. This doesn't necessarily mean that the most desirable tillage land must be put in pasture. In stead, on many farms there is good rolling land that will wash badly if cultivated and that might much more profitably be put into, permanent pasture, to gether with the adjacent branch and creek bottoms. If this is done, F>lant food washed from the more level fields will be captured and converted into grass, and the fer tility will be returned to the fields of the farm through the medium of the dairy cow, if she is allow ed to graze. "The great grazing sections o' the country." says Kimrey, "take the same dairy blood that we have and consistently develop from it larger and better cows that produce more milk. The dif ference is not blood but pasture not just fenced land but good soil that has been properly pre pared and seeded to suitable grasses." Owen Played Lead In Guilford Drama Guijford College, May 17 ? Tommy Owen, of Kings Moun tain, turned in an excellent per formance as one of the leads in tlio Fine Arts Club's rendition of "Down in the Valley" hero last ??night.. Also starring in the American folk opera by Kurt WeiH were William Utley, tenor, of Rocky Mount, and Betsy Bingham, so prano, of Asheboro. The three leads were supported by a chorus of 12, Mary Jane Hjnes of Winston-Salem, pianist, and Dorothy Ann Ware, organist. Carl Baumbach. head of tin- De partment of Music, was director.
