The Sun
Probably many a homemaker dur
ing the past month has wished she
could get a bird’s eye view of food
supplies the country over. We are
presenting something of. that nature
this week in the following summary
of a report by the Bureau of Agri
cultural Economics on the National
Food Situation.
How well-stocked is the nation’s
larder? That is the question that
the woman who buys the family’s
food has had occasion to ask more
than once during the past few weeks.
This month, the answer to her ques
tion was forthcoming from reports
of the U. S. Department of Agri
culture.
The answer, in short, is that there
is on hand now or in prospect an
abundance of practically all kinds of
food. There’s enough to supply this
country amply for the coming year.
In many cases, not only is there
enough, but some to spare.
Perhaps of first interest are the
two great cereal foods—wheat and
corn. Ordinarily, the United States
produces each year more than enough
wheat for this country. 1939 has
been no exception. The large amount
of wheat left over from last year,
plus this year’s average crop add up
to abundant supplies for home use,
surpluses for export.
Corn is principally a feed crop.
But the large corn supplies on hand
now are important to the consumer
interested in future supplies of meat,
lard, and dairy products. There’s
about an average crop expected this
year. Added to this there’s a large
carryover from last year.
Ample supplies of sugar are also
available. On hand now are consid
erably larger stocks of it than there
were last year at this same time. In
addition, there is a reserve supply
left over from last year that could
be used in case of a shortage. And
to further insure uninterrupted sugar
supplies, all quota restrictions on
sugar imports were suspended by
presidential proclamation of Septem
ber 11, 1939.
The United States grows nearly
one-third of the sugar she uses. She
imports most of the rest of it from
her territories, from the Philipine
Islands and from nearby Cuba.
Total meat supplies for the rest of
1939, through 1940, promise to be the
largest in five years. Biggest news
concerns pork—which may be back
to pre-drought levels during the
coming year. Beef supplies are ex
pected to be adequate, may increase
a little over the past year.
As goes pork—so goes lard. This
year, of course, that means “more.”
Or to quote the economists verbatim,
“Lard production is expected to be
increased sharply and the total sup
ply of other domestic fats and oils is
likely to be large.”
“Not a lot of change”—seems to
sum up what the poultry estimates |
show for the coming year. There
may be a somewhat larger supply of
both poultry and eggs. Turkeys are
holding the poultry limelight now, be
cause of their exceptional abundance.
Fruit supplies for the last half of
1939, first half of 1940, should total
more than last year. Estimates for
these foods, however, are subject to
more changes than those for most
foods. But the most pessimistic es
timates seem to show ample supplies
for home use the coming year.
Of vegetables, there’s a large
sweetpotato crop in prospect, a
slightly smaller potato crop than
there was last year. Truck crops are
holding their own, providing ample
supplies of the other vegetables.
U. S. Planes Test Camouflage
CHICAGO.—Gaudily camouflaged combat planes of the Army’s
famous 27th pursuit group flew here from Selfridge Field recently,
presumably to display the new camouflage scheme for ground observers.
.COUNTY FAIR CATTLE
MUST BE TESTED SOON
All farmers and 4-H club members
expecting to show either Beef cattle
or Dairy cattle at the Newberry
County Fair must have their animals
tested for Bang’s disease within
sixty days prior to the opening of the
fair, according to J. L. King, Acting
County Agent.
Mr. King urges all farmers expect
ing to show animals to notify him by
October 1, so that the animals may be
tested when the State Veterinarian
tests the animals in early Ocober for
the State Fair.

Looking ’em Over
By LONNIE FRANKLIN
College Chatter
Newberry tied Catawba in a
game that for a first of the season
one was very well played.
The Indians looked good at spots
and not so good at others but it
will take a few games to get going
right and Coach Laval has what
looks to be a goood machine when it
once gets going. |
The Indians looked very bad both
at passing and in breaking up
passes as they tried sixteen, com
pleted only one and saw Catawba
grab four.
The tackling at times looked O. K.
but on the whole it wasn’t anything
to write home about. In fact th«
game ended just as it should have on
the face of the two teams’ play.
Now the Indians tackle Wofford
here Friday night and they are dop
ed to win over the Terriers but it
will take better football than last
week to cause any war whoops on
the hill. This is Newberry’s first
Little Four opponent and Coach
Laval will be after a win.
This week’s orchids for play in last
week’s game finds Collangello, De-
Bruhl, Holt, Power, Lambeth, and
DePrima heading the class with the
others not far behind.
The stadium should be packed this
weekend s 0 here’s going out on a
limb saying a good crowd will see
Newberry take its first win of the
season.
Newberry High
Newberry High won their opener
and Coach Hedgepath moves along
with chances for a better than ever
season.
Sometimes it seems fans don’t
give the Bulldog coach all he de
serves because he can’t have any
men just sent there. He has to
start from the ground with boys,
many of whom have never had a
football uniform on before.
I’ve seen him start with a set of
boys that looked so bad I’ve felt sor
ry for him but somehow Harry has
come up each season with a credit
able record and when he wins it’s
our team, but when he loses it’s his.
Let’s get behind those Bulldogs and
give them something to fight for.
The World Series
As this is written St. Louis and
Cincinnatti are fighting for the Na
tional League flag while the Yanks
have been in over a week.
The Yanks have now won four
pennants and three Series in a row
and look good for a win. Dickey of
the Yanks is a mile better than Lom
bardi of the Reds or Owen of the
Cards as Catcher Dahlgren of the
Yanks at first is a better fielder than
Mize of the Cards or McCormick of
the Reds with Mize the better hitter.
But Dahlgren can blast homers and
they offset singles in a short series.
Gordon at second for the Yanks hold
an edge over Joost of the Reds or
Martin of the Cards. Crosetti hav
ing his worst year at bat for the
Yanks at short is as good as Brown
of othe Cards or Meyers of the Reds
but Frank is a money ball player and
more valuable in a series. Gutteridge
of the Cards and Frey of the Reds
are just two guys named Joe com
pared to Red Rolfe at third.
That Yankee outfield of DiMaggio
then ain’t but one like him; Keller,
Powelland, and Henrich are far
above the Cards’ Medwick, Moore,
and Slaughter who are just as far
ahead of the Reds’ Berger, Carft,
and any others they use.
In pitching Walters and Derringer
will be worked to death for the Reds
and Junior Thompson has never seen
a series so we can forget Vandemeer
and the others.
The Cards are better all ’round
in pitching than the Reds. Warneke,
Bouman, McGee, Davis, ~nd Sunkel
can all go to the limit and don’t
forget Derringer and Walters have
over 50 of the Reds wins between
them.
The Yanks can trot out Ruffing,
Gomez, Hadley, Russ , Donald, Pera-
son, and Helderhand all the way over
the 500 mark.
The Y'anks are hitting 289, St.
Louis, 296, and the Reds 272 while
fildlings shows that the Yanks 978,
Cincinatti 975, and St. Louis 970.
The Yanks will win 4 to 1 over the
Reds or 4 to 2 over the Cards.
