College Station, Raleigh, Dec. 30
DR.. G. w. Forster, head Of the De-

New Years resolutions for farmers
Of North Carolina.
Resolution No. is: "Introduce into
the farming system small units OF
what is normally thought of rs
relatively Improbable enterprises,
such as a small poultry unit, a dairy
cow or COWS, a small truck project
an acre or two of sweet potatoes
They will give all members OF the
family an opportunity to use spare
land and labor.
Resolution No. 2: Get the family
together and plan complete re-
organization of the farming business,
to adjust major crops and add sup
Elementary enterprises.

field layout SO as to assist III es-
tablishing flexible rotations and

mentary element.
There's one modifying considera-
ton.
A Minister, Too.
News comes from London that BIZ
tainS 10 have Il minister in Wash
;ngton, as we'll as an ambassador.
It's an unusual arrangement, and OF
course Il minister is subordinate to
an ambassador. But the theory is
that, in this instance, the minister Is
to have all the real authority.
And it appears that Gerald Camp
bell, recently England's high com
missioner in Canada, is to be our
minister. The English high commits
sioner at Ottawa actually is 4 min
lister, though high commissioner i
his nominal title. Well, Gerald Camp
bell formerly was Britain's consul
general in New York, understands
the United States fully and is much
liked here: also by Canadians.
Perhaps things will be o. k. with
Gerald as the genuine diplomatic ar
ticle and his lordship as nothing but
a grouchy figurehead in the big en-
bassy on Massachusetts avenue.

New Years Resolutions
Suggested For Farmers

economic on labor and equipment
Make fields uniform in size and
shape. Leave out 10 acres from the
rotations for necessary adjustments.
Ressolutno No. i: Keep monthly
calendar Of work. Compile 4 list OF
what is going to be done each day
of each week.
Resolution Nc. 5: Make up digest
for each crop of recent improvements
in methods of planting, cultivating,
harvesting and selling. Read good
bulletin and summarize the most inn
portant sources Of cash income, and
the most economical ways to achieve
success with the crop.
Resolution Nc 6:Take an inVen-
, tory at the start Of the year and keep
simple enterprise accounts. The 4-El
club boy or girl in the family can
be assigned the job of keeping prac-
tical farm and home records so as
! to determine whether the farm Is
operating on a businesslille basis.

LORD Lothlan.
Well, they got Lord Halifax.
He's another aristOcrat and con-
sentative, if not an outright Tory.
He was an appeaSer until after the
Munich incident. He eneVer was in
the United States in his life. The
Canucks doubt that he'll prove to be
a first-rat;e fiXer. They concedc that
this may not greatly matter, Amer
leans having now become SO strong
~ oro-British that further fixing
may be unnecessary. Nevertheless,
gioomily comment the Canadians, il
any unfortunate unfiXing can be
done, they suspect that his new lord
ship will manage to do it, for he has
the reputation of being u grumpily
superior individual, utterly lacking
ir Lord Lothian's flare for affable
sociability.
In one sense his appointment was
something of compliment to Uncle
Sam. He was LondOn's minister of
foreign affairs when assigned tc
Washington. Ordinarily cabinet
post rates as above a mere ambas-
sadorship. This time, though, Prime
Minister Churchill seems to have
considered Washington so important
as to rate better than cabinet port
folio, which possibly is supposed to
be flattering to us.
Yet, even at that, maybe Winston
merely wished to get his lordship off
his hands in London. Or, if the
change is to be regarded as pro-
motion, the Canadians surmise that
Winston was bulldozed into making
it by his ultra-conservative parlia-

MORE MARRIAGES

COURT HOUSE RECORDS FOR
APRIL REVERSE TWO PRE-

Contrary to the opinions of
many readers of The Citizen
who read daily the reports of
marriages and divorces, accord
ing to records at the county court
house which give the marriage
and divorce records, the mar
riages for the month of April ex-
ceeded the number of divorces.
The record of April, however.
reversed that of February and
March.
Records in the office of Clerk
Ross c. Sawyer of Circuit Court,
show that there were II divorces
granted during the month and in
the office of County Judge Ray
mond r. Lord, the records show
that there were 20 marriages.
