constructing homes for war workers

such financing might be in excess of

Punthers Come
From Behind to
Win BY 1912

Pascagoufa's Fighting
Panthers, who tonight face the
East Forest team Of Petal in the
local stadium, came from behiad
in a thrilling fourth quarter drive
Friday night to score two touch
downs and snatch an 1912 Vic
tory from Murphy High Of Mobile
in the second home game OF the
season.
The teams were evenly match
ed and played a hard game IN
some of the hottest weather Of
the late-summer. Victory be-
lenged by rights to Pascagoula's
slightly heavier and better drilled
team, but the Panthefs had to
scramble hard for ii. Murphy's
two touchdowns came IN the tid1d
quarter after the Punthers had
held a 60 lead from the opening
minutes OF the game, and the
Pascagoulans' ability TO cone

During the four quarters they
piled up an impressive total Of 1872
yards by rushing.
Starring in the backfield we're
Buster Pittman, Deliyc Shivers
and Everette Stone. The out-
standing performance in the line
was turned in by Clemon Bounds,
l90-pound tackle.
Running from a Information,
the Panthers smashed off-taekle

and else ripped off good yardage
on sweeps wide of tackle but in

PRACTICAL PEACE

General Dwight d. Eisenhower has
not only won the praise and applause
of his own United States, but of all
the United Nations. He uttered a
classic phrase that will be preserved
in "Bartlett's Book of Familiar Quo;
tations'' unless we miss our guess.
Eisenhower told the world TIE
other day that European war has
been holy war, more than any other
war in history. And here is his elias
sic: "All of us who are right think
ing want the common man of all ma
lions to have the opportunities tt al
we fought to perserve for them"
You can search through the rec
ords of the League of Nations, the
Dumbarton Oaks, and San Francisco
Conferences, and you will have to ad-
nit that Eisenhower has been as out
standing and gallant in expressing
the exact spirit of Democracy, and in
choosing his words, as lie was almost
perfect in fighting the battles for
peace in Europe.

WOMEN'S HARVEST CAMP OPEN
FROM JUNE IS TO SEPTEMBER 1

Camp Mil-Bur, wartime farm
work camp for women and girls,
opened on June g and will be in OPP
Grafton until September /. The camp,
locate ON the Magothy River in Anne
Arundel County, is under the direc-
ton of the University of Maryland
Extension Service.
Physically fit women and girls, IA
years of age or older, are urged by
Extension officials to register now to
spend part or all of the summer at
Camp Mil-Bur. At time when the
number of regular farm workers has
decreased and food demands are
greater than ever before, women can
help win the war on the home front
by working on Maryland farms at
prevailing wages as bean and toma-
to pickers, hoers, and weeders.
The emphasis at Mil-Bur is on
work. Truck loads of workers leave
camp eack morning at 1880 and re-
turn each afternoon at $3.50 after
eight hours in the fields.
1t is not a case of all work and
no play at camp, however. After
work and on week-ends, the campers
find time for swimming and boating,
as well as land sports and social en-
tertainments planned by the camp
ers themselves. The camp offers an
opportunity for a vacation in the out
of doors and for paying for it by
work.
Campers during the past two sea-
sons have been almost unanimous in
describing their stay at Mil-Bur as
an ideal way to spend vacation
doing vital war work for pay in
healthful, outdoor surroundings and

COMMUNITY CANNING CENTERS
TO BE CONTINUED

To encourage increased home pres.

War Food Administration announced
that it has provided funds for con-

season the community canning CEN
tiers that were started in 1912 under
the direction of the United States
Office of Education, Federal Security
Agency. The program will be carried
out through State boards for voca
tional education and the local public
schools in accordance with plans mu-
tually agreed upon by the Office of
Education and WA. This action by
VIA is in keeping with President
Trnman's request that American
men and wontn deiicat themselves
to the task of growing larger gar
dens and prese, wing food at home or
in community canning centers-

LAND ROOMS

A situation faces the American
people that is more dangerous than
any of the "black markets." and
that is TIE rapid advance in prices
of real estate, from town and city
lots to the broadcast acreage of farm
lands. The United States Senate
tackled the matter few days ago by
approving a novel cost of production
guarantee to each farmer, while at
the same time it favored extending
the price control law. TIE Senate
measure that passed, provides: 1T
shall be unlawful to establish OF
maintain against the producers OF
any livestock, grain or any other ag-
ricultural commodity, maximum
price for such commodity which does
not equal all costs and expenses Tin
Guiding all overhead expenses, a re-
turn on capital, and an allowance
for, the labor producer and his fam
ily), incurred in the production OF
such commodity, plus reasonable
profit"
The whole question of a runaway
boom in prices in city and farm land
seems to be bound up in legislative
controversy. A major question seems
to be manpower on the farm and the
ability of the farmer to acquire plen-
ty of farm machinery to cut down the
cost of production and pay his taxes
and make a reasonably small profit.
Official figures show the price paid
for an acre of United States farm
land in 1889 was $32.02 per acre
and that the average price today is
$47.41 per acre.

THERE is STILL TIME TO PLANT
VEGETABLES

There is no good reason why Vic
tory Gardeners should not keep their
garden plots producing for eight or
nine months of the year, says DR.. Ed
gar p. Walls, of the University of
Maryland department Of horticul-
ture.
In view of the critical food situa-
ton and the need for adding every
pound possible to the home food sup
ply, he urges everyone who can to
consider planting vegetables in the
next week or ten days.
DR.. Walls says that bush lima
beans can be planted up to June Is,
and beans will be ready for use In
about rs days. He suggests rordhook
and Baby Fordhook as good varie-
ties for Maryland. Plant the seed not
more than one inch deep, spaced so
as to have plant about 0 inches in
TIE row.
Tomatoes can be set up to July 1,
but the sooner they are put out the
larger the yield will be, according to
Dr.. Walls. Get plants of Rutgers and
Marglobe.
Snap beans can be planted at inter-
walls of about 10 days up to Aug ist /,
he states. This will give steady
supply. Stringless Green Pod is a
satisfactory variety. Plants s..ould
stands to incres In the row. Cover
the seed about " inch.
Collards may be started from seed
down "A inch deep in wel-preparei
seed bed, the specialist advises. 1t
will take from to 6 weeks for
plants to get, big enough to set, so
they should be started at once. Set
the plants as early in July as posi-

the tracks," DR.. Walls says. Col
lards make excellent green's, exceed
ing cabbage, turnip green's and spin
ach in proteins, fats and carbohy-
drates and equaling them in miner
ais and vitamins.
Those who have space enough In
their gardens may well plant some
winter squash, such as Hubbard,
Boston Marrow, and Table Quuen
(also called Acorn. They should be
planted about eft. by TT. They take
longer to mature and should be In
the ground by the middle of June.
Succession paintings of sweet corn
are recommended where space per-
mits, but paintings are not advised
later than July Is. Golden Cross
Bantam, Stowell's Evergreen, and
Country Gentleman, are good varie-
ties, the first being yellow and the
last two white.
