CCC President Says Dairy Feed
Payments TO.Be Continued In IA

RALEIGH, Feb. 2.-tR-Princi-
pal changes in proposed 1914 farm
price supports include increases
on some crops and a continuation
of dairy feed payments, j. B. Hut
son, president of the Commodity
Credit Corporation (CCC), said
here today.
Hutson spoke at the afternoon
session of the N. c. Farm Bureau
Federation. which opened here to-
day for a two-day session with
more. than 1000 delegates from
every county in the state in at
tendance.
1.-The propos ed schedule of
prices for 1944-along with in
creased effort to make available
the physical implements, labor,
fertilizer and machinery, needed
by farmers-will contribute as
much as is humanity possible to an
other high record of food produc-
ton this year." Hutson said.
He said that net farm income
for the nation, after deducting
costs from gross farm income,
was estimated at $12, 500, 900, 1000 in
1913, compared with $500, 900, 900
in 1912 and a pre-war average Of
81, 700, 100000
The CCC chief said that more
fertilizer and machinery will be
available this year than last, but
that increasing reliance must be
placed upon emergency workers
from towns and cities in meeting
seasonable labor requirements.
In the keynote address, Dean l..
O. Schaub of the N. c. State Ex-
tension Service, said that farmers
through the Farm Bureau FEEDER
alton and other farm organiza-
tons, have received special con-
siderations and probably would

Do You feel tired -IistIess? OH

Now everyone knows that to get the good
out of the food you eat-you must digest
it properly. But what most people don't
know is that Nature must produce about
two pints Of the digestive juice-liver
bile-each day to help digest your food.
If Nature fails-your food may remain
undigested- sour and heavy in your
digestive tract.
Thus, it is simple to see that one way
to aid digestion is to increase the flow Of
liver bile. Now, Carter's Little Liver
Pills start to increase this flow quickly
for thousands-often in as little as thirty
minutes. When bile flow increases, your
digestion may improve. And, soon you're
on the road to feeling better-which is
what you're after.

teract indigestion-when Carter's aid
