Mt. Zlon Club Meet* The Mt. Zlon Home Demonstration club held 11h January meeting lust Thursday afternoon at tho club house with Mrs. Wade Holley, presiding. The meeting was called to Order with the singing of "Faith of Our Fathers." Each member answered the roll call with a favorite verse from the Bible; then the minutes, were read by tho uew secrotary, Mrs. ' Henry Belvin. A short business session was held and Mrs. J. B. McCoy I tho troasurer, who had been given the deed for club house and grounds by the county, presented It to the club president. The uew chairmen were then appointed by the president. Our Home agent, Miss Fewell, started her afternoon work by giving tho county goal: "Every woman to Buy War Bonds and Stamps." She gave a very accurate account of what each amount In stampis and bonds would buy. Her talk was bo enthusiastic that It made us realize more than ever tho need of every dlino and the responsibilities of every farm woman. The need or growing more foodstuff than ever?feed ourselves and others?to abolish all the shipped in canned goods and other things that can be raised in our state and county. It's really our best way of helping to win the war. Time changes everything and war makes it faster, ho we've got to keep open mlndB and change with It. As Ashley Montagu said in his tluie, "How to Find Happiness and Keep It." "Of this you may be certain, that by keeping an open ininu you will live as fully as you can, while by keeping a closed mind you live as narrowly as you can." So wo must not say "can't" because wo can do more than ottestlanAabl etao ewer fromshrdlub we've ever done before, even with less labor, help, fertilizer And machinery. The Demonstration war "Poultry" uud was very interesting helpful and educational. Everything was covered from brooding chicks, sanitation, disease and grading eggs. Four new members Joined the club at this meting, these being Mrs. Howard Marshall, Mrs. T. P. Brown, Mrs. Q. D. Munn, Mrs. L. P. McClean.? Mrs. Henry Belvln, publicity chairman.

STATE MUST HAVE PULL SHARE VICTORY GARDENS CleuiHOn, Jn. 30?"8ouih Carolina luutil have her full charge of tho 13 million Victory Gardens which should ho grown In Iho United States this year to help moot wartlmo food production problem*?must have,"- says A. E. 8c hll letter, Cleniaou extension horticulturist. "11. W. Hochbaum, chairman of tho committee on Victory Gardens for tho U. 8. Doparttop^t of Agriculture, la calling upon Bain's people for six mlllon futSw flfrdeus and 12 million town and^W*P-gardens to make a real contrlbun*M\to the total civilian food supply/ SoJyUlefttor continues, emphasizing tho special need of the vital vitamins and minerals and fruits needed for the well-being of our civilian population. Here are the facts of tho situation: One-fourth of our total food production in 1943 will be noeded for our armed forces and to help supply our fighting allies and tho workers who make their weapons. Theslzo of our armed forces and the length of our battle lines grow dally. That means more food immediately and more for future use. Tho United Nation's food strategy is to build, with food, new power to throw against the Axis. Food from America made the combined American and British campaign of Africa possible. Thirty-five per cent of the 1942 pack of the most important canned vegetables was set aside for army and lend-lease needs. Over one-half of the 1943 commercial pack of vegetables will be purchased by the government. This means that civilians must depend more and more upon fresh supplies through home-garden i_.oduct)ion. The wartime burden on the Nation's transportation system will make it impossible to ship normal amounts of fresh vegetables over long distances; hence the need for producing more of the civilian supplies close to consuming areas. In short, the Victory Garden will contribute to the war effort on both the fighting front and the home front. It will reduce the demand on commercial supplies that must go to military and lend-lease needs; it will relieve the food transportation and distribution problems; it will reduce the demand for strategic materials for canning; it will enable the gardener to i supply his family with the means of maintaining good food habits so essential to health.
