“CLEAR ALL WIRES”
CLEMSON COLLEGE, April 8.—
During the existing national eco
nomic emergency, farmers and
farm women are giving more
thought to the development of sup
plemental sources of income, and
are seeking information that would
show themjiow to increase the
family revenue. Because of this
interest speakers onthe land-
grant college radio program sched
uled for Wednesday, April 19, from
12:30 to 1:30 p. m., eastern stand
ard time, will discuss various ways
in which the income of the farm
home has been increased.. How
Kentucky farm women turn their
;pare moments into money will be
presented by Miss Myrtle Weldon
?tate home demonstration agent of
Kentucky, and Mr. David Walsh, a
Connecticut farmer, will show tha
farmers can make their woodland. 1 :
pay. Mrs. Ola Powell Malcolm of
the United States Department o'
\griculture will give accounts of
farm families that have improved
their living standards and incomes
by carrying on supplemental ac
tivities. Music by the United
States Army Band will conclude
the program.
Land-grant college radio pro-,
grams are arranged by the land-
grant colleges and the United
States Department of Agriculture.
They are broadcast on the third
Wednesday of each month over a
network of radio stations associat
ed with the National Broadcasting
Company.
South Carolina farmers and
farm women may hear these pro
grams over WIS, Columbia; WPTF,
Raleigh; WWNC, Asheville; WSB,
Atlanta; and other stations.
National Cotton Week to be ob
served May I6 f to 20, offers itself
as an opportune occasion for
Southern merchants dealing ia.
foodstuffs including chain stores,
independent grocers and bakers to
identify themselves with an im
portant movement leading direct
ly to an increased consumption of
the South’s great crop. In addition
to making special displays of goods
packaged in . cotton containers,
these establishments, according to
George A. Sloan, president of the
Cotton-Textile Institute, can make
a material contribution of contin- *
uing benefit by insisting that flour
for Southern consumption be pack
aged in cotton sacks.
While Mr. Sloan points out th&t-
cotton containers are preferred by-
most milling concerns and are
very largely used, a survey just
completed by the Institute discloses
that flour shipments to the retail
trade in the South include, every
year, many millions of packages-
put up in other containers. One
milling concern alope with big
ness concentrated mainly in two
Southern states, has reported thaj
among its last year’s shipments,
there were upwards Of one milli&aU
retail units packaged In bags oth
er than cotton. In view of the fa’ct
that the bag used is specified hy
the establishments, purchasing the
flour, it Was considered- regret^'
