Need Phosphorus

Lacking phosphorus enough IN
their feed cattle may develop nu-
tritional diseases, the most common
of which is known as "creeps." For
a remedy, scientists recommend
phosphorus compounds dissolved IN
the drinking water or mixed with
feed. Bonemeal fed in a ~self-feeder
is a convenient way to supply phos-
phorus. For prevention there is a
third and indirect method of I'M
proving the phosphorus supply by
fertilizing ranges and pastures with
a superphosphate.

Cooking Ducks

Wild ducks can be roasted success
fully in an uncovered pan. Keep
the oven temperature moderate C3zo
degrees F). Allow 20 to 30 minutes
per pound of bird for roasting time.
Wild duck meat is not only darker
than tame duck but is drier. You
can keep it moist by laying a few
strips of bacon across the breast or
haste the bird frequently with the
juice of an orange-a flavor that>ls
especially pleasing with duck.

deaths occurred in the city, the
greatest devastation occurring in

Shoreditch, Clerkenwell, Cripple
gate, st. Giles and Westminster
quarters wherein the poor were
densely crowded. Of the 97,3O6
deaths recorded in that year, 68,596
rel attributed to the plague.

DOT Not

Hesitancy to use DOT because OF
its hazard to health is, in most in
stances, unjustiied. When used ac-
cording to recommendations, DOT
Insecticides are not dangerous-ex-
cept to the insects. They are actu-
ally less dangerous than such COM
mon Insecticides as lead arsenate,
paris green, sodium f1uoride or nico-
tine. One should always, of course,
handle insecticides of any kind with
care.

If enamel or paint has been spat-

can without scratching. Then rub

until clean. Then touch up the
dulled spots with very thin wax
paste. Let dry and then polish.

on the north side Of Princess street,
between Third and Fourth.
However, it was not until April
Of 1888 that the legislature passed
a bill naming the trustees of
Innes academy in the District OF
Wilmington"
And it was 1888 before interest
ed citizens of the town subscribed
enough additional money to carry
on the construction of the acad-
envy.
Owing to the ravages OF war
and other causes, the trustees ap-
pointed by Colonel Innes in his
will had recovered little Of the
lines property
When the citizens Of Whining
ton had subscribed the necessary
funds, the Princess street prop
erty, consisting of three lots, was
acquired.
But, long before the academy
building was completed, a theat-
-ical corps had oeen organized
here. This was the first group OF
ITALIAN players.
An arrangement was made be-
tween the Thalians and the acad-
envy trustees for the exclusive use
by the Italians of the lower part
of the building as a theater. Or
this portion of the property the
Thalians took a perpetual lease.
So the academy building went
up, although the little town boast
ed of scarcely 1,50O Inhabitants al
this time.
Then in later years the acad-
envy fell into ruins and passed out
of the picture a. an educational in
stitution.
But despite this state of affairs,
the Thalians continued to hold pos
session.
Their claim was resisted by the
University Of North Carolina I'M
der the law of escheats, the uni.
versity trustees maintaining Their
right to the property on the ground
that there were no heirs.
By way of compromise, the
property was sold and purchased
by the town. And by further agree
ment, half the purchase money
was to be applied to the erection
of a building which would be equip
ped with rooms suitable fo~ tneat-
rical performances.
Despite the vicissitudes, the
Thalians were carrying on.

City County Fail
To Receive Request
For Budget Rehearing

Neither county and city officials
last night had received a resolu-
tion from the Community hospital
in which the board Of governors
of that institution asked recon
sideration of budget requests.
The matter first came up al
tho weekly meeting Of the board
of supervisors. Commissioner
Harry Gardner, a member OF the
hospital board. asked if the resclu.
ton passed last Thursday by thai
group had been received.
Chairman Addison Hewlett re-
piled that it had not. Later, in
vestigation at the city hall reveal
ed that the resolution had not been
received there.
The resolution requested an
other joint meeting OF the city
county fathers to restudy the ask
editor appropriation of $4,000 tor
the operation of the institution for
the 1947-48 fiscal year.
At last weeks meeting the hos
pital group named a committee
to present their demands to the
city and county. The hospital
board commended that the $50, 600
request is needed for proper opera
ton of the hospital.
