Hope, state superintendent of edu cation. Thirty-three scholarships will be given by Winthrop and 23 by The Citadel. The scholarships offered by Wimhron carry free tuition, $6J and $1S9 a year. The Citadel schol arships are more valuable, carrying something over $200 a year and free suition. It v/as explained, however, that a person must not only stand a competent examination, but must also be eligible for free tuition be fore he or she can qualify for the scholarship. The matter of eligi bility for free tuition is passed on by the* state tax commission. Mr. Hope said he would official ly notify the winners by letter to day. The University of South Carolina and Clemson are not offering scholarships this year. The legisla ture made no special appropriation for the awards but The Citadel and Winthrop are paying the cost out of a lump maintenance fund ap propriated to each. The Winthrop awards are as fol lows: Mary Ruth Opt, and Gladys Garrett, both of Belton, Anderson county; Rosalie Mathis, Blackville, Bai'hwell county; Katherine Lake, Pv.rtcn, Beaufort county; Dorothy 2.

Guest, Calhoun ing the first week of such activities, approximately 300 applications were received from Spartanburg County farmers and about 250 ap plications from farmers located in Florence and Darlington Counties. Mr. Daniel reported that the number of appraisers to put va^ua tions on the properties offered as security was increased to a point where within two weeks from the time this work was started it was well in hand in these counties arid it was decided to extend the acti vities over the whole state. Of the loans*applied for to date ah have been assigned to appraisers and ap proximately one-half of the pro perties have been appraised and more than $100,000 already has been disbursed, the farmers paying this amount to the banks to dis charge their obligations. The Federal Land Bank and the Commissioner’s Agent do not pur chase the obligations of farmers held by the banks; they make the loans to the farmers who in turn pay their obligations to the com mercial banks. The amount which the Land Bank can loan is limited under the Federal Farm Loan Act to 50 per cent of the appraised normal value of the land plus 20 per cent of the appraised insured value of the buildings thereon. The amount which the Commissioner’s Agent can lend is confined to $5,- 000 to any individual but the Agent’s loan, when added to all other indebtedness against the farmer or his property offered as security, may not exceed 75 per cent of the appraised value of the security. Where the farmre’s obligations to the local bank can be refinanced with the amounts which are avail able, the farmer’s debts are thus transferred from the local institu tion to the Federal Land Bank and the Commissioner’s Agent. Where the farmer owes the bank more than can be loaned for the purpose of refinancing, the banks have the opportunity to scale down the debt to a point where the cash* offered by the Land Bank and Commis sioner’s Agent is sufficient to dis charge the farmer’s debt. 1*; — Interesting 4-H Broadcast For .

This is not at all difficult, for they are among our most versatile foods and may be combined in many pleasing ways. The combination of meat and to matoes, while it is not new,’is one of the most satisfactory, for the flavors of the two foods contrast so well that they each enhance the other. And, from the standpoint of nu trition, the combination is an es pecially good one. Meat is needed in the diet for its excellent quality protein, the building material of the body. Also it contains the min erals, iron and phosphorus, which are most essential, iron for its help in building red blood cells, and phosphorus for its influence in building stfong. rigid, well-formed bones and teeth. Tomatoes are an excellent source of vitamin C, the vitamin which prevents scurvy and seems to increase resistance to di sease. A combination of two foods which singly have; an important place in the diet is valuable in nu trition. . ' There are many ways in which meat and tomatoes t may be com bined. Here are a few of them. These are suggested by Inez S. Willson, home economist. Fillet Mignon with Baked Tomato 6 beef fillets, cut 1 1-2 inches thick. 6 rounds toast. 3 tomatoes. 3 tablespoons butter. 3 tablespoons grated cheese. Salt and pepper. Have fillets cut from a tender loin of beef. Brown in Butter, and fry until tender, about 20 minutes. Cut tomatoes in half and place in a buttered baking pan. Sprinkle with grated cheese and dot with butter. Place in a moderate oven (350 degrees F.) and bake until to matoes are tender. Arrange the fil lets on rounds of buttered .toast and place a baked tomato halfi on top of each one. Lamb en Brochette 2 pounds lamb shoulder: 1-2 pound bacon squares... 6 tomatoes. 3 cnicns. Salt. Pepper. Have lamb shoulder boned and cut into inch squares of about 1-2 inch thickness. Slip a square of lamb on a skewer, a piece of bacon, then a piece of tomato,* another square of bacon, and so on until the skewer is pretty well filled. Lay on a cold greased rack and place over live coals or under an electric grill or gas flame. If gas is used have the skewers about 3 inches from the flame. Sear on,all sides, then lower the flame and finish cooking at a reduced temperature. It requires about 10 minutes for the broiling.
