The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

The Hemp Crop Is In DeKalb County
From the February 6, 2019, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1944, 75 Years Ago,
"According to E,E, Houghtby, all hemp growers in the area of the Shabbona mill have completed their part of the 1943 growers contracts.
"The first load of straw passed over the scales on October 26, and the last load was delivered to he mill on January 119, 1944. Hemp growers in Kirkland and Shabbona areas are to be highly commended for the excellent job that was done even in the face of great handicaps. Growing hemp was an extra load at a time when labor was extremely scarce."
