HOG LOADING
STATION Held
GREAT ASSET
G. D. White Points to Ad-
vantage; Farmers Would
Be Paid on Spot

The opinion that q loading sta
ton for hogs at East Flat Rock
would not be detrimental to the
health conditions or damiging to
adjoining property, but would on
the contrary be of great value to
business conditions at East Flat
Rock and to farmers Of Hender-
son county, was expressed today
by G. d. White, county farm
agent.
The proposed station would be
built through the cooperation Of
vocational agricultural teachers
of this and other counties. the ex-
tension department of State Col
lege. and the Southern Railway.
The pens would be constructed
by the railway and would be well
built, painted and made as attrac-
tive as possible, Mr.. White said.
He pointed out that they would
be cleaned and disinfected inn
mediately after each shipment of
hogs.
Relative to noises, he pointed
out that no hogs would reach the
shipping point before 7 o'clock
in the morning, and that they
would be graded, weighed, loaded
and shipped in a minimum time
of about eight hours. No hogs
would remain At the station over

LOADING POINT WOULD
SERVE FOUR COUNTIES

Mr.. White pointed out that the
loading point would serve Hen
dcrson, Polk, Pennsylvania, and
Buncombe counties. The farmers
would notify county agents when
they had hogs to ship, and when
there were enough for car the
agents would contact markets and
accept bids by wire.
Buyers, he said, would trade on
the grading and weighing done at
the station, draft would be
drawn and the farmers paid at
the loading point for their hogs.
Mr.. White pointed out that he
expected about Is cars to be
shipped during the first year, but
he estimated that between one
and two hundred cars would be
shipped per year in a space of
five years.
As the farmers would be paid
at the shipping point, he express
ed the opinion that the station
would be of great value to the
business men of East Flat Rock.

 Nothing much ever is said about this particular wing of the service. IL is known among military men to be Germany's ace in the hole against a time when fuel no longer would be available and the fighting and hauling would have to be done with horses which could be fed from the countryside.
 Access to the Rumanian oil fields would solve Germanys oil prob lem. Rumania ranks fourth among the great oil producing countries. It now produces 10,500,000 tons an- nually and could be expanded. It would be a long haul from Rumania to the western front or to @ Russian front but the Danube provides a water route and railroads another.
 The battle for the Rumanian oil fields might transfer the major war front far to the East. In that event, England and France would be hard pressed to defend them from capture-unless Russia should step in as an ally. And Russia seems to be cooling off toward France since the Czechoslovak affair.

 Oysters are back To many of us thats as thrilling as harVest-time or the opening of the football sea- son.
 Every oyster growing section of the country boasts of the superior delicacy of the local product. But regardless of origin, individual fla vor or size, oysters can be prepared and served by the same general methods.
 How will we have our oysters? Well, let's start with the cocktail. Use your favorite variety and see that they are fresh, well chilled and toned up by the right sauce. Serve about six to the portion and always include wedge of lemon for each service. Serve the oysters on the half-shell or in small glass cups lined with cress or shredded lettuce.
 Here's a recipe for a universal cocktail sauce: Mix half a cup of catsup, a third of a cup of chili sauce, two tablespoons of grated horseradiSh, a fourth of tea spoon of salt and an eighth of 8 teaspoon each of paprika, celery salt and granulated sugar. Mix and chill This is enough for six or seven servings. If you're extra fond of seasoning, top the oysters with little chopped, crisp bacon minced parsley and pimientos. Perhaps you'd like to launch your luncheon or dinner with something hot. Oyster bisque E just the ticket Chop oysters and heat them in melted butter, then add to savory cream soup sauce Serve in cups or plates and gar nish with whipped cream and pa- prika. For change include some corn or mushrooms with the oy- sters.
 Oyster kabobs are just the thing to serve for an informal supper Alternate eight oysters with suuares cf bacon on long skeWers. Broil CT bake until Drowned, sea- sen with a mixture of salt, pepper, celery salt, chopped parsley and chili sauce, and serve on hot but tered toast.
 Creamed with peas, mushrooms, hard cooked eggs, chicken CT ham, oysters make a ons-dish meal well worth considering Mix equal DOT tions Of oysters with one of the foods mentioned and add to a thick, cream sauce. well seasoned. Cover with buttered crumbs and bake in casserole in moderate oven for fifteen minutes. Oyer-cooking may toushen the oysters.
 Did you ever think of adding horseradish to cream or Hollan- daise sauce when you serve it with fried oysters? 4 grand idea. Use three tablespoons of horseradish with each cup of sauce. And have you tried adding chopped picked beats to tartar sauce served with fried or briled oysters? It's a very tasty addition.
 Oysters Creole are triumph in the art of seasoning. Brown three tablespoons each chopped onions celery and green peppers in four tablespoons butter Add one and {. half cups of chopped oysters and simmer five minutes. Then add three tablespoons of catsup, two of chili sauce and a fourth of a tea spoon each of salt and paprika Thoroughly heat the ingredients then serve them, toppe cd witll
