Wild LIFE IN
State NOT TO
Be EXTINCT
Most Elaborate Propaga-
ton Program in His
tory Begun

RALEIGH, Jan. II. (UP).-
Wild life in North Carolina, faced
with possible extinction, welcomes
1888 as a real happy new year.
On January / North CaroIlha
opened the largest cooperative
game propagation and mahIse
mcnt program ever undertaken
between the L. S. forest service
and a state conservation depart
mCnt. ,of
This year protected game rel REL
uge acreage will total l0''oOo
acres under the new program;
Last wear there were only 42,oOo
acres of protected game land.
Ouadrupling of protected game
lands is a vindication Of the small
but earnest conservation program
carried on for 10 years by the
North Carolina department OF
conservation and development.
The federal forest service select
cd North Carolina for this en-.
largcd program in recognition OF
the states "modcl" sct-up.
Under the cooperative plan;
the land for game refugees is pro.
yidcd from the l%7,36G acres OF
national forests in the state,
while supervision and patrolllng
of the refugees is in the hands OF
the game division Of the state de-
partment Of conservation and de-
Velopmcnt.
With an expanding program
the forest service looks toward
the day when the land under It's
control will become public hunt
ing. and recreation grounds as
we'll as timber reserves. For this
reason, the experiment now under
way in North Carolina is regard
ed with added significance.
As a result OF the alliance with
the federal department, North
Carolina now has six large ref
uges. Strategically located, they
are expected to provide breeding
grounds for animals and BIRDS
which will restock outside areas,
Public hunting is already permit
ted in most national forests out
side these refugees.
Game has already thrivcd 50
well in the protected areas that
these too will be thrown open to
supervised hunting and fishing
for short periods each year so
long as conditions permit.
Heart of the federal state
game program is at Mt. Mitchell
Game Refuge farm. at BuSWlck,
n. C. Headquarters of Cher
Game Protector c. n. Mcase, the
little settlement in Il cove of the
towering Blue Ridge is also
laboratory in game management.
But the range is more than a
place where propagation and pro
lection are scientifically practlc-
ed. Ii is the outpost Of conserva-
ton in a land surrendered to the
animals.
Federal cooperation will mean
virtually alright enforcement of
game laws, dSSult .Jllc l1lOHI WIZ
liant game protection in history.
State protectors now patrol $50
miles Of foot and horse trails and
$50 miles Of streams in the six
refugees. Under the recently in
augurated program. these agents
will have the help Of so full-time
forest rangers and hundreds of
CCC enrollees.
Wardens believe it will be al
most impossible for game law vio-
lation to escape detection under
such a program.
The five game refugees are
The Daniel Boone Refuge, $4,000
acres; The Mt. Mitchell Game
Refuge, $4,000 acres The Sher-
wood Forest Refuge, $4,000
acres; The Standing Indian Game
Refuge, $4,000 acres, and The
Fires Greek Refuge, $4,000

Observation-Disclosures nOtc).
Bill Smith: "How do they go
about paving you for what you
dO?"
John Brown: They want you
10 carry out all the soIl-bullding
practices recommended by the
county AAA committee, but they
don't want you to plant more
than the acreage of Soil-depleting
crops allowed in your goal.
If you do all the things recon-
mended for building up your soil,
and if you don't go over your SOIL
depicting goal, they will give you
the full amount of the payment
that has been figured for your
fam"
Smith: THAT sounds kinda con-
fusing, doesn't it,"
Brown: "No, not if you under
stand what they want to do, and
the reasons why.
cts like riding Il horse
through Il barn door. You duck
your head to keen it from get
ting bumped, and the horse has to
pick up his feet to get them over
the sill
Smith: What do you mean by
that? ?"
Brown: "In the program they
are asking US to keep down under
the soil-depleting goal to keep US
from knocking our heads off
a neck mott, back into produc-
ton?
Answer: As a usual thing, the
early Matched pulletS go into a
neck mott in the late fall or early
winter and, at that time the con-
sumption of mash falls off. AS
mash is the egg producing" food
it is necessary to encourage the
consumption and often this can
be accomplished by giving the
birds wet mash in the early
afternoon. This mash should be
fed in a "V" shaped trough and
the birds given all they will con
sumo in about 30 minutes. The
rest period during the neck mott
apparently increases the value Of
the birds from a breeding stand
point and it might be well to Sc
lect the breeding flock from these
birds.
Question What is the best va
riety Of lespedeza to seed for
hay?
Answer: There is very little to
choose between the Kobe and the
Tennessee rs varieties as tests
conducted in % different lOcali-
ties show difference Of only G2
pounds an acre difference be-
tween the two. An experiment
conducted at the Branch Expert
ment station at Statesville show
a difference of only 30 pounds an
acre between these two varieties.
For general farm purposes the
common is the best as this var
iety makes good yields of hay and
seed, and in pastures rcseeds it's
self under closer grazing than any
Of the other varieties. 1t is also
one of the best varieties for soil

Livestock Have
Tooth For Cake
Made From Meal

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
Ian 11-Livestock have a. tooth
for cake-and it's good for them,
FOO said Earl H. Hostetler, pro-
fessor of animal husbandry ut
State college. =,
messed cottonseed meal, is rich
IN nroteins and phosphorus which
make a good supplement to hay,
pasturage and other feeds, he
pointed out.
Finely ground cottonsccd meal
is good for mixing with Other
feeds, he added, but when fed
separately, cottonseed cake or
slab is easier to handle and less
wasteful.
The degree of finencSs to which
the meal may be ground does not
effect its food value, the profcs-
sor explained, but when cattle
are getting their roughagc in the
form of carbonaceous hay or pas
ture, they can be fed cottonSccd
cake in open troughS or on the
ground with little or no waste.
And sheep can utilize pea or
shecp-sized cake, when it is fed
without other concentrates, to
better advantage than they can
ground meal.
SO far, Professor Hostctlcr said,
North Carolina farmers have not
demanded cottonseed cake in Suf-
ficicnt quantities to justify many
of the oil mills in installing ma
chinery to produce cake in the
different sizes such as pea, nut,
sheep. peeble and screenings.
But if beef cattle and sheep
feeders will appreciate the value
of cake andask for it, more will
be produced and they will find
they can use this nutritious feed,
that is plentiful and inexpensive
in this region, with excellent re-
suits.

towns and villages show a big in
crease in the young folks who re-
main there. With the convenience
OF the auto the city is easily reach
ed and as easily left, so that the
good earth appeals more than ever
as steady diet. As someone said,
When meal-time comes on the
farm you can either pull it or ring
Its neck, but in the city it means a
trip to the corner grocery and a
hunt for the can-opener." And
youth knows this is true. Uncle Sam
is encouraging the youth on the
farm. He is trying to help in his
way by purchasing butter and eggs
to the tune of $35, 900 day, reports
the Agricultural Department thru
the Surplus Commodities Depart
ment. When prices go too low this
department buys produce which
will lessen the supply and advance
the prices. What the government
buys is distributed to the needy
families through state relief agen-
cies. You know the combination
of two such forces as youth and
government is pretty hard to beat.

FOR RIGHTS

: -H
AS a nation we believe in re-
ligious and civil actions. There is
nothing that so stirs us to indigna-
ton as to hear about q foreign ma
ton becoming so powerful and
domineering that they can inter-
fere with the lives and customs
of an under-dog people forced to
boy to tyranny. But while we are
clucking our tongues at such goings-
on in countries beyond the waters,
right here in our own boundaries a
certain religious group Of thrifty,
conscientious citizens have been
forced to carry an appeal to the SUI
preme Court regarding whether
they might not keep ther child
rem in schools which they maintain,
or must be forced to send them to
schools built of borrowed money
from the government. These people
are self -sustaining and one Of their
principles is to carry on by means
of their own power, to rely on their
own resources, and depend upon
their God and his soil to carry
them through. They are quite sue
cessful, inasmuch as they farm the
richest county in the United States.
and are debt-free people, They
support themselves without the aiG
of state or government and conse-
quently they dislike going against
these principles and sending their
children to schools supported on
borrowed finances. This nation is
a nation of free people, and how
ever We may feel personally about
such matters as these, whether we
agree with the sentiments of these
others, let us at least be as tolerant
IN our own country as we criticiss
other countries for not being.

was the passing of a bill to change
the Food and Drug Act of 1906. The
new set-up looks a lot better than
the old bill and most Kennewick
citizens feel the new regulations are
a safeguard to their health. We
are well aware that there are a
number of harmful patent medi-
cines on the market, and that at
various times we are apt to come
across items in our papers dealing
with cases of blindness and of death
due to impure foods, drugs and cos
metics. After June 2, 1889, the Fed
eral Government will have the right
to try violators and will call on the
Department of Justice and its sue
cessful Federal Bureau of Investi-
cation to look into the cast and i'm
mediately remove the medicine from
the market. The old law carried a
maximum penalty of 5000 for first
offense, but the new law says $1,000
"a years imprisonment, or both
can be the sentence. This law de-
mands that labels "tell ALL" Any
products, especially canned goods,
prepared improperly before can
ming, may be barred. Medicines that
are supposed to deal with weight
will be given attention, and medi-
clneS containing any drugs must
warn against habit-forming. If
medicines deteriorate within GER
tain length of time, this must be
put on the label as we'll Anything
as important to the welfore of the
public as the Food and Drug Act
Should come pretty close to being as
perfect as any man-made law can
come.

WASTING AMERICANS

Did you ever stop to think OF
how we waste our resources, OF how
we discard the products that saved,
would cut down our expenses and
teach us the value of thrift? We
find many a fellow around who
figures he can beat the game" by
throwing his money away on games
of chance. There is many a Ken
newick woman who puts the left
overs from dinner in the garbage
instead of finding a dish that
might be tasty and eaten. Our
grandmothers used to make soap out
of grease, and today lots of it we
throw away. One man feels that all
this waste is not to be compared to
the wasting we do in time and en-
ergy. We realize that we sap our
strength with unnecessary things,
and it is usually too late when we
become aware of our foolhardiness.
Why not profit by the old saying,
Save at the spigot and wastes at
the bung hole" and keep the spigot
running smooth and mend the bung
hole, by starting in as good thrifty
Americans to save and not be sorry.

man planes and munitions, was adj
vancing almost unchecked. Today
the government has rallied, has re-
gained lost territory. and is again
on the offensive. In spite of in
creditible horrors, the spirit Of the
population in government territory
seems to have gained rather than
lost in vigor. Franco still has the
upper hand-but the experts are
saying that he cannot possibly win
this year, and that if the recently
signed pact whereby Mussolini
pledged himself to withdraw Ital-
ian troops from Spain is observed,
his chances of ultimate victory will
be UNNECESSARILY lessened.
Germany is rafting the saber
again at Czechoslovakia-but there
has been notable stiffening of
spines in France, which leads to the
view that actual German aggression
of Cvech territory is unlikely, and
would be extremely foolhardy.
Summing up, the Fascists and
the Nazis are still making the most
noise-but they aren't showing re-
suits. Big question mark remains
England-where the lottery Cham
berlain government continues to
play both ends against the middle.
Recent surveys indicate that Eng
land has lost colossal amount Of
prestige in this country.

ITALY AND WHEAT

Despits the fact that North Am
erica will produce enough wheat to
come close to feeding the world,
does not affect the Italian people,
who are going to come out short
on their wheat crop this harvesting
time. Our nation will produce the
second largest crop Of its record,
and the italian people have a short
age of about 36,500.0O0 bushels of
wheat. Mussolini has heard the
grumblings of his people concern
ing the poor bread they have been
forced to eat, and he has promised
them q bread with a higher per-
centage of corn flour instead Of
substitutes. This is all well and
good for the Italian people If their
wheat crop will supply the neces-
sary demands, but so far their pros
poets have fallen short. They are a
demonstrative people and were
childishly elated over the scene Of
their Mussolini, stripped to the
waist heaving sheaves OF wheat
into the thresher, surrounded by a
cheering multitude, with the sun
shining down on him and his peo-
pie. 1t is a vivid picture and may
be inspiring to the Italian folks, but
we are wondering whether their
shouts will be SO cheerful if they
become hungry. II Duce says his
people will be fed, but even if they
aren't fed they will not humiliate
themselves by soliciting help in any
form from "so-called great democ-
racies." Cheering him seems to be
habit with the Italian people and
this is fitting if the cheers don't
turn to jeers when granaries are
depleted and bread boxes are af-
fected. We hope no nation will suf-
fer a shortage, if such there will
be, even if that same nation re-
fuses to buy its bread from enemies
of Italy" But as wheat fields yield
their harvest, folks around Ken
newick count their blessings and
wonder if another nation, Justify
cheering man for his ardor and
energy, will let the lack of millions
of bushels of wheat interfere with
their praise.

Huge Grant
Is GiUen
County

UPPER MARLBORO, Md,
April 20.-The Prince Georges
county school board today will
notify Federal Public Works Ad-
ministration officials Of accep-
tance of a $4,000 allotment for
an extensive school building con-
struction program.
Although the amount allotted
by the PWA was considerably
more than requested by the school
board, the board decided to &C.
cept the full amount and to pro-
ceed Immediately with operations.
In 1886, the school board de-
cided to embark on a $700 900
school construction program and
filed a request with Federal au-
thoritieS for a 1922 900 grant and
$442 900 loan. At the same time,
an act was passed by the Mary
land legislature authorizing the
school board to float a $442, 900
bond issue to pay off the loan.
After waiting more than a year,
it seemed apparent that the Fed
eral funds were not forthcoming
so the board decided to carry out
the building program as far as
possible on funds from the bond
issue.
A $250,000 issue was sold, which
added to $4,000 in the school
treasury, has been contracted for
the building of schools. Schools
already contracted for and under
construction are Hyattsville High
School, $105,000; Lyndon Hill,
