Farm Order For
More Milk, Eggs

The North Carolina "order" un-
der the nations 1912 plan for re-
cord expansion of food output
will be for less wheat but more
milk and eggs, E. Y. Floyd, state
AAA executive officer at State
College reports.
"Despite some recent, inconsis-
tent reports about British having
plenty of food" Mr.. Floyd says,
'the British have left absolutely
no doubt but that they need enor-
nous supplies of all foods except
wheat, and American agriculture
has agreed to tackle the job of
furnishing those supplies. Our
own state job, with first empha-
sis on increasing egg and milk
production, will be to boost the
output Of just about all foods by
approximately Is per cent"
North Carolina representatives
of every U. S. Department Of Ag-
riculture agency, led by State
College Extension and AAA men,
started this week a campaign
which will include visits to every
farm in the state. The purpose of
the farm visits will be to outline
production needs to every farm
err, analyze each farms land and
equipment and then to give the
farmer concrete 1912 plan I'M
der which the FARMS food pro-
duction can be expanded without
excessive expense to the farmer.
Other "basic" food commodities
which Tar Heel producers will be
asked to 'bear down on" Mr..
Floyd adds, are beef and pork.
North Carolina farmers have
never produced sufficient supplies
of milk, eggs, poultry, beef or
pork to feed their own states po-
pulation. "That makes the need
for increases doubly important"
says the AAA leader.
''The 1912 food drive is strictly
a voluntary proposition" Mr..
Floyd declares, land farmers will
be asked to cooperate with the
plan only after they have been
shown why increases are needed
and how their prices will be pro-
tected through the summer OF
1943 by government buying"

Farm Machinery
To Be Featured

Raleigh, Sept. 17.-Recognizing
the shortage of farm labor and
the ever increasing demand for
farm products, manufacturers
"are rebuilding their efforts" to
make the farm machinery and
tractor displays at the State Fair
at Raleigh, Oct. 14-18, "the most
informative and most elaborate in
the history of the exposition"
Prof. David S. Weaver, of State
College, director of the farm ma
chinery exhibits, announced to-
day.
farming is one of the few in
dustries which is called upon to
produce more and more with
less and less labor" Professor
Weaver said. "There is only one
answer to this riddle-that is in
creased use of farm machinery
and farm power. With the ever
decreasing number of horses and
mules in the United States and it
is obvious that farmers will have
to depend more and more upon
mechanical power, and the farm

FREE TRAINING WORTH $500

And all this time you're taking care of your
future! The Navy said, ''Pick trade-we
can make you an expert And they gave you
nearly SO skilled trades and vacations to
choose from: Radio expert, machinist, welder,
aviation mechanic, dental technician, cleo
trician-to mention few.
Yes, training that would be worth $500 to
you in one years time. Training that will
assure you of well-paid job in civil life. Yet
you get paid while learning-get your keep
and a complete outfit of clothing free.

month support previous promises q
substantially increased l94l cuc6
crop. All indications point to flights
numbering between 10 and 30 nil
lions of waterfowl.
Most Areas ThickIy Populated.
This survey which showed some
big duck waters to be more thln.-
populated than during previous
counts, nevertheless proved most
areas densely packed. Still other
had greater populations OF ducks
than ever before.
A steady increase in canvaSbacks
iustifies the increased bag limit this
year. while the still greater increasa
in redheads holds a promise that
next season the restricted bag may
be lifted. There also is a remark
able increase in Widgeon, while
there is a wider distribution of Cam
ada geese than ever before.
Bluewing teal probably are the
first of the migrants to appear III
this area. They have been noted
for several weeks. Now occasional
pintails are coming in also, but so
far as either of these birds is con-
cerned there is nothing to indicate
an early season. Wedges of Canadas,
however, are something else, and
considering the weather it appears
as though they are early.
Ted Pickett Gets Surprise.
Ted Pickett, bass fishing at Gu
pid's Bower yesterday evening, for
moment believed he was back in his
native Missouri when the plaintlye
honk of travelling Canada geese fell
upon his ears, for in the years he
has travelled the Potomac never has
he seen the big birds come in for
the night. There were AZ in the
wedge that followed the lead gan

This is the largest flight Of which
we haze any authentic knowledge
and the first in this vicinity. Small

time on the Virginia river marsher.

Wildfowlers in the Eastern United
States know of duck disease, botul-
ism-a bacterial food poisoning
caused by excessively long dry spells,
only by reading about it. Normally
it is found in the Canadian breed
ing grounds and in the West, where
the bacteria under suitable weather
conditions hourisheS in streams and
marshes.
An outbreak in the Cherry Island
marshes, almost in the City OF
Wilmington, Del, occurred early
this month. State wardens were
cognizant of the disease two weeks
before sportsmen brought it to the
attention of Arnold Stewart, out
door editor of the NeWs-Journal,
who, unable to obtain immediate
action from State or Federal Of
ficials, finally appealed TO President
Roosevelt for aid. 1t was forth
coming Immediately.
According to Stewart: Federal
men that never knew Delaware was
one of the 48 States were ordered
here by plane and by train. They
still are on the job and the situa-
ton is improving steadily"
SpOrtsmen Make Heroic Effort.
Until responsible authorities ar
rived Wilmington sportsmen, an
swering Stewards appeals for help
worked day and night, to the point
of exhaustion, polling boats over the
marshes on high water and wading
up to their armpitS in mud during
low water, to gather the bodies OF
dead ducks and rescue those still
living. More than 5000 mallard
sprigtails and blue and greenwingec
teal and hundreds Of yellowlegs
snipe, gulls and other shore birds
were burned to prevent the spreac
of the disease, while 700 infected
birds were removed to clean waters
and wholesome food and are recov
ering.
More wildfowl died in Cherry
Island marshes than Delaware
sportsmen will shoot during tht
entire open season. Again it be-
comes apparent organization i
needed if sportsmen are TO protec
their wildlife. Delaware outdoors
men are promising the next election
will bring better-equipped enforce
ment service and supervision to STOP
such outbreaks before they become
well started.

SKY RAIDER has good form
to his credit and he may be able
to defeat this band with speed

placed here and she may be
tough customer. CHEESE
STRAW could get up in time TO
earn the short end.
