Schmeling Wins
Fight In First
Round OF Battle

STUTTGART, Germany, July
Max Schmeling, former world
heavyweight champion knocked
out Adolf Heuser, European hea-
vyweight champion in less than
minute in the first round OF
their scheduled 15-round title
fight today.
Grim and a little gray above
the temples, Schmeling threw
out a lightning-like right sock af-
ter the bout started and Huser
collapsed like an empty sack.
Schmeling didn't take a blow
that amounted to anything. Heu-
ser, a stocky muscular fighter adj
vanced confidently and started tC
spar with Schmeling. Unsmiling
Max shook off all his attempted
blows until an opening presented
itself and he slipped across a fas
right.

Canning Season
Is Now At Hand
Fair Offers Many Prizes. Free
Directions Available from
State and u. S. Gov.

Now that the canning season
is approaching Ashe county wo-
men like many others will turn
their thoughts and energies to-
ward the preservation of fruits
and vegetables. And the Ashe
county fair will probably stimu-
late women to do more fancy
canning and jelly making for
display purposes, as many priz-
es will be offered.
Mrs. Cornelia c. Morris, econo-
mist in food conservation and
marketing of the State College
Extension Service, says proper
equipment is highly important
for canning, which is a summer
time practice in most North Car
Dina rural homes, land should
be in every home, she added.
First on her list of equipment
is an authoritative manual Civ
ing detailed instructions for pre-
pairing and processing the diff
ferent fruits and vegetables. Such
a publication is Extension Circu-
lar No. 223, Canning Fruits and
Vegetables" which is free to cit
liens of North Carolina upon re-
quest to the Agricultural Editor,
State College, Raleigh.
There is also available what is
popularity known as the canning
bulletin of the Bureau of Home
Economics, which may be obtain
ed free by writing the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture, Wash
ington, for Farmers Bulletin No.
1762-F, "Home Canning of
Fruits, Vegetables, and Meats"
A check-over of the canning
equipment needed indicates two
kinds of Gamers if one is hand
ling vegetables as we'll as acid
fruits and tomatoes, says Mrs
Morris. Acid fruits and toma-
toes may be canned in a hot wa
ter-bath Gamer, which may be
a wash boiler, a bucket, or any
vessel that has tight cover anC
is large enough to hold a con.
venient number of cans or jars
and to permit covering them with

Farm Questions
And Answers

QUESTION:: Is it advisable to
use q self feeder for hogs all the
time?
ANSWER: The self feeder IS
the most economical method for
allowing the animals to balance
their ration and should be used
as much as possible. The only ex-
ception is when the brood soWs
are dry. At that time the sows
should be fed by hand. A good
pasture should be provided and
the animals fed a protein supple
ment with enough corn added to
keep the sows gaining in flesh. A
miseral mixture should also be
supplied at all times. From the
time the pigs are two weeks old
the sows should be put on the
self feeder again and allowed to
select their own ratlonS.
QUESTION: What precautions
should be taken in installing a
home water system?
ANSWER: The first item to
consider is equipment and ma
terial. Always get the best pos
sib!e. Galvanized pipe and fit
tings should always be used as
rust in ordinary black iron pipe
is Objectionable. The pump
should be located in light, well
ventilated place where it IS ac-
cessible for repairs and adjust
ments. Suction pipes should have
uniform slope to avoid pockets
and reduce the number OF tit
tines. These lines should also be
as short as possible to reduce
printing trouble. The Agriculture
al Engineer at State College Will
answer any further questions and
will assist in the installation II
requested.
QUESTION: What was North
Cardinals farm income last
year?
ANSWER: The only accurate
figures we have on this are those
supplied by the Bureau of Agrl-
cultural Economics of the United
States Department of Agricul-
ture. This Bureau collects accu-
rate estimates from all parts OF
the United States and from ev-
cry State. A recent report shows
that the N. c. gross farm
income from crops last year
amounted to $2O9,513,O0O and
from livestock and livestock pro-
ducts was $84,558,OO0. This gross
farm income includes products
sold from the farm, value of
those items used at home and
the Government AAA payments.
Note how unbalanced our farm
ing is as between crops and
livestock.
QUESTION: How can I i'm
prove my sheep flock?
ANSWER: Buy a good, pure
bred Hampshire ram. Tests made
by the North Carolina Expert
ment Station indicate that this
breed seems to be best suited to
North Carolina conditions. The
cross bred lambs secured are
heavier, are of better quality and
produce improved wool. Write
for a copy of Technical Bulletin
No. so of the Experiment Station
which describes results of cross
breeding with improved rams.
The bulletin may be secured free
of charge on application to the
Agricultural Editor at State
College.
