COLLECTION of perfect eating" chick
- ems is constantly being made easier
by the scientific methods used on modern
poultry farms. It's remarkable what
present-day poultry growers are doing
in the development of plump, tender
meat BIRDS, specially raised for good
eating.
Just so you can be sure of yourself
every time, here's simple checklist of
qualities to remember when you buy
chicken.
sLook for light skin color with a
fresh, bright appearance.
sLook for tender, meaty thighs.
.Look for well-rounded, tender
drumsticks.
sLook for plump breast.
You may be sure all these qualities are
present when you see the tender-groWn
Swift's Premium tag attached to the
wing of the chicken. These birds weigh
from ~ to 81 pounds, and are scien-
tifcally raised and fed to be naturally
tender.
Now, here is a recipe for our favorite
way of preparing chicken to bring out
the natural flavor and goodness.
Fried Tender-Grown Chicken
with a crisp, brown crust)
Il Swift's Premium Chicken for
Frying
Il cup flour
q teaspoons salt
N teaspoon pepper
e teaspoons paprika
cup Swift's Brookfeld Butter
N pound)
Shortening
q tablespoons water
Rinse and droin cut up chicken. Nix
-four, salt, pepper and paprika in a
paper sack. Place chicken, few pieces
at time, in sack, and shake to coat
thoroughly. Heat butter and enough
shortening in a heavy skillet to give u
inch layer of fat. Place chicken in hot
fat, skin side down. Brown and turn.
Add water and cover Cook slowly 80
to 40 minutes. To brown crust, remove
cover and cook to 10 minutes longer.
Use -four left from coating for Pan
Gravy.

Sprinkler Irrigation
Continued from page g.

continued from page 81
the sprinkler line is set up about
80 feet from the edge of the field.
After that, 60-foot moves are made.
Chose Revolving Type
I chose a revolving type sprinkler
system for day and night operation.
Lateral lines and sprinklers operate
in each position about IL hours; this
puts on between 31a and 4 inches of
rain. I move the laterals morning
and evening. When haying or har-
vesting, we all turn to and it takes
only a short while to move the line.
One man can move and set up
about 1900 feet an hour. This cuts
time spent On irrigation down to
between az and 3 hours a day as
compared to IL or IA hours a day,
and one really gets the job done.
A 1,600-foot line Of ~sprinklers
will cover a little over Az acres a
day or it takes 10 days to cover ap-
proximately As acres with a 3k to
4 inch application of rain. This is
the proper amount of moisture for
alfalfa, pasture and most of the crops
grown in this region. With potatoes
I kept the top IL to 16 inches of
soil moist up to a week or 10 days
before digging time. Sweet corn was
irrigated on the same schedule as
hay and pasture with very good re-
suits.
Sprinkler irrigation greatly in
creased my first cutting of alfalfa
the first year. Instead of a scant 10
percent second cutting, I cut a
bumper crop from the whole field.
The third cutting was very good
also and furnished a lot of pasture.
1 also got two cuttings of alfalfa
from five acres of May seeding. 1t

THIS IS the pumping unit of the
sprinkler irrigation system used by
William ". Barnes on his farm in
Lewis and Clark county. Unique fea-
ture of the engine which powers the
centrifugal pump is that il uses pro-
pane and butane gas for fuel. Accord
ing to Barnes. this fuel costs less. is
more efficient and does not carbon up
the engine. The small trailer supply
tank is trailed TO the main farm head
quarters for filling from a large sup

There are robins in the lower part of the

HEART DISEASE A KILLER

Heart disease is rapidly becoming the chief
cause of death in the United States, being far
ahead of cancer, the second on the list of dis
leases which kill the greatest number of people
in the United States every year.
incidentally, of the ten leading causes of
death in the country, only one-tuberculoss-
has shown steady decline during the past few
years. Whether this is to be attributed to the
)steady campaign which is waged against the
}White plague, or not, we have no way of know
ing, but we suspect that there is some close
jconnecton.
Concerning heart disease, recognized au-
|thority reports that coronary sclerosis is some
times called the ''disease of the inteligensia'
because of the susceptibility of physicians,
bankers, lawyers and clergymen The charac-
teristics of the disease including the hardening
Iof the nerves, ligaments and blood vessels a.
round the heart and it's incidence is highest a.
nong those who do mental work and lowest a.
mong those who do manual labor
The Marion Progress naturally hesitates to
attempt any conclusion from these observations
but, apparently, the disease attacks individuals
who are prone to forget the Importance of ply
sical exercise while consuming their energies in
anxiety of mental worries. It would therefore
appear that, somewhere along the line of pop
ulSr education in this country, the physical ma
ture of man has been neglected.
If this is true, and we believe it is, we might
save the lives of future professional men in this
community by stressing athletic interests dur
ing childhood with the hope that, when these
individuals reach maturity, they will have sense
enough to continue what has been wisely be-
gun.

is YOUR HOME DANGEROUS?

We have called attention many times to the
danger that turks in the average American
home, pointing out that statistics show that a.
bout half of all the accidental deaths in the ma
ton are due to mishaps within the home.
One survey of large city reveals that more
than half of such deaths are caused by falls
Analysis reveals that nearly half of the falls oc-
Cured on the same level, more than one-third
of them on stairs and about one-sixth from one
level to lower level
The safety experts suggest that the number
of accidents caused by tripping over objects and
rugs on floors is of such size as to suggest eau
ton in every home. Moreover, the need for we'll
lighted stairways is important and everyone
should exercise and patience in using stairs
We call these facts to the attention of the res
1dents OF Mcdowell county in the hope that we
may help prevent accidents in the home It will
take only few minutes to look over your
home and eliminate some of the accident haz-
ards. Parents who do this may save their chill
dren from suffering and themselves from un-
necessary medical expenses In addition, they
may save their own lives.

RED CROSS NEEDS YOUR HELP

The month Of Marcn, l949, has been desig-
mated by President Truman as RED Cross
Month";" and the organization seeks to raise
by voluntary contributions, in a nationwide
campaign, a fund with which to carry on it's
work while the foundations of peace are being
established, and, in it's humanitarian SERVICE to
express the spirit of universal good will which
recognizes no barrier in human welfare
The Red Cross, one of three national organi-
cations chartered by Congress- undertook and
successfully accomplished tremendous task
during the active participation of this nation
in the first and second World Wars It still has
many duties to perform if proper attention is
to be paid to our veterans overseas.
In addition, it has long record of relief work
IN the peaceful years of our national existence
bringing aid, treatment and rehabilitation to
victims of disaster. It also makes it's contribu-
tions to the war against sickness, accident, suf-
fering and death.
We call attention to these things so that the
people of Mcdowell county will be advised of
the appeal and be prepared to make financial
contribution which will enable the Red Cross
to contribute it's work. During the war years.
there was general desire to take part in the
work of the Red Cross by financial contribu-
ton if not through personal service continu-
alton of this spirit will assure the success of the
campaign because people are just as anxi-
GUS to help suffering humanity in times of peace
as in times of warfare.

EXPECTS HIGHER TAXES

Spaker Sam Rayburn, OF the House of Re-
representatives., said that Congress "in all prob
ability will have to increase taxes to prevent
deficit financing.
The veteran legislator says that it will be a
reflection all of us if the nation has deficit
when national income is at such high level
He insists that there must be "enough money
to run the Government and to reduce this
$252,000, 100000 national debt every year, es-
pecally when we are prosperous"
There is no intelligent argument against the
Speakers position Nevertheless, with constant
ly increasing demands growing in Congress for
benefits to this group and that it is question
able whether the Government of the united
States can do everything proposed and still
have any money left over, despite the nation s
prosperity, to reduce the national debt.
Along this line, Representative Robert L.
Doughton, of North Carolina chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee, suggest that
newspapers tell the people that if they do not
want more taxes, they must do something to
hold down appropriations.

INSURANCE OR WELFARE

Several risky possibilities appear in the pro-
posal to require the states to pay unemployment
insurance of up to $45 week to the jobless
worker with three or more dependent children.
The Federal Security Agency is strongly consid-
ering recommending this amount to Congress.
Unemployment compensation under the So
cial Security Act has given protection to count
less workers out of job through no fault of
their own But as Sir William Beveridge, the
great British authority social insurance,
warns unemployment payments cannot be al
lowed to equal or exceed income during work
A very large numebr of workers do not have
average earnings of $45 week. Of the workers
with three dependent children in Massachusetts,
for instance 23 per cent earned $45 or less the
last quarter of last year. Only four states and
the District of Columbia grant dependency al
lowances for children.
It is also questionable whether unemployment
COMPENSATION should be broadened to take on the
extra cost of payments for children OF
the jobless. To do so would in effect, shift the
whole program from an insurance to 'wel
fare" basis-Christian Science Monitor.
