I THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1964 THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA PAGE RVfi FARM NOTESlfflurs miiiuiuili.iiHi By COUNTY AGENTS NOTICE DAIRY FARMERS New and helpful advice in Dai rying! That’s what you’ll learn at the Dairy Field Day Program next Wednesday, November 18. Take time to attend. We know you’ll be glad you did. This meeting begins at 9:30 a. m. at the National Guard Arm ory. Specialists from Clemson’s Dairy and Ag Engineering will conduct the program on Mastitis Control, Herd Management, Free Stall Housing and Dairy Farm Records Program. Since the program will continue into the afternoon, plan to .eat lunch in Newberry or go home for lunch and return for the afternoon session. COOPERATE IN CENSUS TAKING Some time this month the cen sus-taker will be knocking at your door. Please cooperate by giving the needed information. It’s im portant that you do. Changes are happening rapidly in the field of agriculture. Except for the Agricultural census taken every five years, it would be im possible to keep track of these many changes. A questionnaire for . recording census information will be receiv ed by every farmer in the mail. This should be filled out, if pos sible, before the census enumerator arrives. You are assured that an infor mation you supply will be kept confidential and will be used only for statistical data. GET RID OF RATS Long have rats been the scourge of mankind. Each year we urge the control of rats, but top often good advice falls on deaf ears. Somehow, it seems easy to over look the damage caused by these destructive pests. So here we go again in hopes some will take heed and control rats and mice on their farms. Not only do rats eat our feed, but they contaminate much more. Research shows that every rat on your farm cost you up to $2C damage each year. For every rat you see there are usually twenty to fifty more you don’t see. Tbu can and should wipe out these filthy creatures. Baiting programs can be suc cessful. We’ve had good results in killing rats even'in poultry houses where there’s always a good sup ply of feed and water. John G. Seibert dies suddenly John G.

The Dairy Princess will be hon ored by the Newberry County Dairy Farmers’ Wives at a recp- tion in Newberry Saturday after noon. “Most beautiful, best personal ity, friendliest and most likely to succeed”—that’s how petite (5- foot-3-inch) Wilma Lea Blevins was listed in “Who’s Who” when she attended the University of Arkansas. And it all proved true last June 25 in Chicago when Miss Blevins won the Dairy Princess ci'own for 1964-1965. She took top honors from a field of 20 finalists, representing some 20,000 initial entries, in this 10th annual con test. Witi lesses plan Preliminary plans are now in progress by the Newberry Mis sionary Group of Jehovah’s Wit nesses for their coming three-day training program in Columbia. The announcement was given to this effect by Miss Georgia Le- Vere, representative of the local group, at a recent ministry-de velopment class at the local King dom Hall, 1817 Lindsay St. The conference will be held at Allen University. Miss LeVere said that upwards of 500 persons from some 17 South Carolina ci ties are expected to attend. The special gathering is an ex tension of the regular training pro gram in all local Kingdom Halls, where five different Bible classes are held each week. Miss LeVere said that “In the face of the growing tendency tow ard a moral breakdown, the Watch- tower Bible and Tract Society has chosen a theme, very applicable to our day: ‘Speak the Word of God with Boldness’.” The main discourse will be given Sunday, November 29, at 3 p.m. by James A. Thompson Jr., district supervisor of the Watchtower So ciety. His subject is “Our Divided World—Is It Here to Stay?” NSLI reopens for some vets South Carolina veterans interest ed in the new law reopening Na tional Service Life Insurance may obtain a “general information” sheet at the VA Regional Office, Columbia, Jake Wise, County Ser vice Officer, Newberry, said to day. This printed sheet gives a gen eral outline of what the law pro vides and what the veteran must do, and concludes on the reverse side with sample tables of monthly premium rates. A copy of this sheet may be ob tained by calling at, writing, or telephoning the Columbia VA Re gional Office. The VA reminded veterans, however, that no application could be made for the insurance until May 1, 1965. This date for reopen ing is set by law. Mr. Wise gave this brief resume of key facts which interested vet erans should know: Veterans are eligible if— a. They were originally eligible for NSLI between October 8th, 1940, and January 1, 1957. b. They now have no GI insur ance or less than $10,000 in cov erage c. They have service-connected disabilities and, regardless of de gree, they meet standards of good health or are prevented by their service-connected disabilities alone from meeting standards of good health. d. They had on or before Octo ber 13, 1964, nonservice-connected disabilities which are sufficient to prevent them from buying commer cial insurance at the highest rates. MH officials at convention The Newberry County Mental Health Association was represent ed at the annual convention of the South Carolina Association in. Co lumbia last week by Dr. and Mrs. Walter H. Beck and by Mr. and Mrs. P. K. Harmon. Dr. Beck, president of the Newberry chap ter, was presented a “distinguish ed service” award. Addresses and reports at the convention indicated that South Carolina is making rapid progress in expanding facilities for the treatment of the many thousands of persons in the state needing specialized service. Reorganization of the Board of Directors for the Newberry chap ter is underway, Dr. Beck reports, so that each of the seven major districts of the county will have two or more members on the Board to help carry out the work of the county association more ef fectively.

Chopped, cooked corned beef, either canned or home-cooked, makes a good spread for rye bread when seasoned with pre pared horseradish and whipped cream cheese. Combine 1 cup flaked salmon with % cup diced cucumber (seeds removed) and cup salad dressing for an interesting fish sandwich. For delicious open-faced sand wiches, use small strips of pumper- nickle bread, lightly butter. Top with a slice of hard-cooked egg and an anchovy fillet. Like liverwurst? For tasty sand wiches, use sliced liverwurst, sli /.ed hard-cooked eggs, and mus tard or chili butter on bread slices. This means add a bit of mustard or chili sauce and cream ing it with the butter for spreading bread. Chopped hard-cooked eggs and crumbled, cooked bacon mixed with ketchup and mayonnaise will be a favorite of the whole family for sandwiches or crackers. JUuuuJLrJIHlsul] • ITEM; A constant source of in spiration for women who sew is the wide array of trims and laces now available in pre-cut, most- wanted lengths and packaged in a style similar to standard no tion items. Because the Chanel influence is still strong, braids are increasingly important in the fashion picture. This year they have more texture and edge in terest; openwork allows various braids to be used together thus enabling the home seamstress to create her own individual border effects. ITEM: Vitamins are where you find them. Carrots and sweet po tatoes are a good source of vita min A. Peppers are high in vitamins A and C, and so are turnip greens, kale and collards. Lima beans, peas and young cow- peas (including black-eye peas) contribute appreciable amounts of thiamine and protein. * * * ITEM; Gummed labels on new pots and pans leave a sticky resi due which is almost impossible to remove without scratching the shiny metal surface. Next time, soak the label with carbon tetra chloride or lighter fluid to loosen the adhesive and then wash in hot soapy water.

Reception of the album proved to be so favorable that it was decided to follow up with another sound LP . . . Several months ago, Capitol engineers traveled to a track to record The Big Sounds of the Sports Cars, an album that contains an afternoon’s high lights from the exhaust pipes of the world’s leading Grand Prix drivers as they race their care around the circuit . . . John Surtees, lead driver on the factory team, is featured on first Ferrari. Billy Liebert is perhaps one of the most versatile and busiest of all musical directors in the coun try today . . . Billy, in addition to being an accordionist and pian ist, has worked as an arranger and conductor for Cliffie Stone’s radio and TV shows, musical director at CBS and held a similar post on the Tennessee Ernie Ford Show ... It was during his years with Ford and Stone that Billy became acquainted with country music and this convinced him that there is little difference between country and pop tunes. He summed up his philosophy once when he said: “Pop artists don’t apologize when they sing country songs any more . . . They’re standing in line for good ones to sing.” . . . Billy follows his convictions in his latest album for Capitol in which he takes « dozen country tunes that have be come hits and gives them the pop treatment . . . Among the songs heard are From a Jack to a King, Abilene, The Minute You’re Gone and The Tip of My Fingers. give the jewelers’ quality watch with the ’50 look! •• m • O/7/y $f4 95 . • I v All the expensive watch featuresl Shock-resist ant, dustproof, anti-mag netic, lifetime mainspring.
