Stock Prices Reach
New 7-Year Peaks;

BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, Mar. 1.-The stock
market got head start on March
today by registering new highs for
more than seven years with steels
and pivotal industrials again pro-
viding the leadership
Initiation warnings from bankers
and others continued to accentuate
the hedging propensitiee of idle
funds. A little chilling to the psy-
chology, however, was the denial of
Secretary Morgenthau that there
was any likelihood of hiking the
gold price. Dividends and earnings
registered as purchasing inspira-
ton.
Wednesdays substantial recovery
was extended at the opening on
stable blocks. Plus signs running
to point or so were trimmed later
but trends stiffened near the fourth
hour with activity picking up mod
erately
In front were United States Steel
Bethlehem, Youngstown Sheet

Vargas 10 Set Election
| Date Within 3 Months

By the Associated Press.
RIO DE JANEIRO. March l.
President Getulio Vargas promised
the Brazilian people today that
within 80 days he would fix the date
for the first general election this
country has known since 1880.
The promise was embodied in a
decree modifying the constitution
which he established in 1887 by re-
storing to the. people the right OF
direct suffrage in the election OF the
president, governors of states, par
| lament and state legislative assem-
5lies.
President Vargas gave no indica-
ton of the probable date of the
election. but in recent public utter
Iances he has expressed belief that
none should be held until the end
of the European war, in which Brazil
is taking an active part
The presidents action revoked in
whole or in part 10 articles of the
1897 constitution, against which a
large segment of the Brazilian press
has been agitating recently on the
ground it was nodded on the au-
thoritarian Europen pattern.

forage was reduced.
Additional work in this program,
Hostetler says, follows the same
pattern, development Of means to
use native feeds and forage in a
way that will produce quality pro-
ducts economically.
To enlarge this program, 900
acres of additional land for the

come more cooperation and finan.
cial aid.
More projects in forest grazing
are also being conducted, with an
eye to the value of native forest
grazing for beef cattle production
and to the effect Of this grazing on
the forest growth.
Breeding projects are also under
way. Purpose Of this work is to
determine the efficiency Of the
different breeds and crosses OF
beef cattle, sheep and swine in con-
verting feeds and forage into pro-
ducts for human use.
At the same time, the Animal
Husbandry workers have realized
that better production is not the
only goal in this program.
Funds have been made available
for the enlargement of the Meat
Laboratory, in which the freezing,
curing and aging of meat are to
be studied. Particularly emphasiz-
ed in this work are to be the
methods in which rancidity Of pork
can be controlled.
q. In connection with the Agri-
cultural Experiment Station, each
of these projects is being carried
as research work, but members Of
the Animal Husbandry Section have
also recognized the value of a
teaching program. And in keeping
with this idea, flocks and herd
typical Of the different breeds of
livestock in the state are being
maintained to train the students

FARM HOMES CAN
Be COMFORTABLE
BY PAULINE E. GORDON
N. C. State College

Farm houses, with all the mod.
ern conveniences, can be just as
comfortable as city houses, but
they must be designed for the
special activities of farm life.
One of the special features need
ed in farm homes is work room
a place in which the homemaker
can do such tasks as washing,
ironing, canning, preparing food
for market, and "hog killing" This
room should be located on the
ground floor, adjoining the kitchen
or back porch.
Mrs. Anne T. Page, home demon
stration agent in 1redell County,
says that the housing program IS
going forward rapidly in 1redeu
County. Mrs. Everette Fox OF the
Oakdale Home Demonstration Club
has her new home under way.
Mrs. Fox says, I'VE have been
planning our house TOR about SIX
wears. The floor plan includes
living room, den, dinette, two bed
rooms, bath, kitchen, small hall,
and back porch. Our house is IN
sulated and has central heat. The
information at club meetings on
house furnishings and home man
agement has helped me great
deal.
81 am well pleased with my
storage. I have basement, a
closet in every room and on the
back porch, and sweet Dutch
cupboard in the dinette. I have my
color schemes worked out for the
different rooms, too. The placement
of my doors and windows gave me
trouble, but the windows are now
placed to give me good wall
spaces for furniture, as well as
light and air. The traffic lanes
through the house are real good"
A house with well equipped stor-
age space is a great convenience
to the homemaker. Shelves, cup
boards, cabinets, and closets, or,
in other words, "a place for every
thing" makes house more COM
Portable to live in and easier to
keep.
In many old farm houses there
are few or no closets, but there is
often wasted space that can be
converted into the much needed
storage. Mrs. J. Roy Wilkerson,
of the Buckhorn Home Demonstra-
ton Club, Wilson County, moved
into an old farm house and found
that there was no storage in the
entire house. Today Mrs. Wilker-
sons home has well-planned stor-
age throughout the house. Room
by-room storage space was plan
ned and built.
Mrs. Wilkerson said, ''We first
planned the storage in the small
narrow room which had been used
as a bedroom. Part Of this room
was converted into bathroom.
The other part Of the room was
used for storage. Nice clothes
closets, fitted with racks, shelves,
rods, was built on one side Of the
room. On the, opposite side of the
room we built a cupboard with
wide shelves for blankets, quilt.
hat boxes, suitcases, and like
articles. At the end OF the clothes
closet we included a linen cabinet,
and underneath this we had space
for a built-in clothes hamper"
Mrs. R. c. Mcconnell Of the
Mazeppa Club, 1reden County, has
made many improvements in her
home during this year. The house
she lives in is fifty-four years old,
one of the type with too much
porch. The appearance from the
outside has been changed great
deal. The long, narrow, front porch
has been removed, leaving only
stoop protecting the entrance.
A nice, wide, living porch with an
eastern exposure was left on the
side.
