RIPE OLIVES MAY BE
EATEN IN SAFETY
!
Washington, Juno 5.?Ripe olives
have been restored to favor. It is
again safe to eat them. according to
government experts. The appetizing
delicacy which, by reason of a few
instances of imperfect j.?e?:ing, was
I.rought into temporary disfavor all
over the United States has been of-,
licially restored to its p:ace at the|
table, and epicures may oreathe a
sigh of satisfaction. Incidentally, the
bacillus botulinus, that i:ny organi-j
zation responsible for the ripe olive's

and henceforth must seek other fields
Secertury Meredith cf the Department
of Agriculture, in making pub
lie the result of a thorough investl
nation by government chemists of
cases of poisoning due to me eating
of ripe olives, said the trouble was
not due to the container in which'
they were packed, but to isolated
cases of inadequate sterilization j
Tho chemists found, he said that it
v:is possible to sterilize completely
l oth glass jars and tin cans. To
eliminate all possible fuiure trouble j
he said, the packers have adopted the
department';) recommendation that
the olives be subjected to no: less
than 240 degrees of heat :o preven;
the possibility of danger to ;:ie con ;
si'.mer. This increased sterilization !
I
it is said, in no way effects the flavor
or t!ie edibility of the relish.
Ov/I^.r to r-ejiulico, due the publicity
given ca?e of poisoning fronv
eating rips olives, according to the
packers, the ripe olive packing indus ?.y
has been practically destroyed '
the demand having fallen off 95 per
cei.v. So widespread was this preju ;
dice that the consumption of green'
olives was similarly reduced, although
no fatalities were traced to the use
I
of them. It is believed tnai the actio::

BETTER COWS AND
BETTER HOGS CAMPAIGN
From all reports it seems that
there will be a shortage of 34 per
cent in the wheat crop this year.
This is a serious situation. It
should cause the farmer to increase '
his corn crop this year. Just recently
I have seen more Western Hay
hauled to the farms of Abbeville
County than usual. The farmer who
deposits most money in the banks
during the present price of cotton |
is the farmer who first of all produces
on his own farm all the food
necesary for the family -and feed
for his livestock. We don't gain
anything by reducing the acreage in '
corn and other feed stuff and in
creasing the acreage of cotton, we
all know or should know that we '
can produce our corn and pork
cheaper that we can buy it. Home
grown products are better than that!
which we buy. The farmer who be- j
lieves he can buy his corn at $2.10 '
per bushel, meat at 30 cents a
pound and hay at $50 a ton should '
siudy these products. Why make,
cotton merely to exchange for the
above products. Cotton should be
more of a surplus cash crop than to
. v,T.p it, so to speak, for the es- J
Fontials of life?food. ;'1
Mr. J. V. Smith of the Arbor-',
ville section was forunate in having
the first heifer calf dropped sired ; j
bv the association bull. He was of- ,
fered $25 for the calf when it. was .
dropped, but he refused the offer. '
If the calf had been sired by a j
scrub bull, he might have given it to ]
some one. Mr. Palmer of Central :
community says he would not take

$50 for his heifei; calf. Another ?
farmer says he valued his heifer m
calf from an association bull at $75 r*
and still another farmer says he
might take $100 for his heifer calf '
sired by an asociation bull. This "* ;
shows what the members of our bull .J
associations think of good stock.
In Spartanburg county where a
bull association was organized three $
years ago ,the farmers are getting
$25 more for their heifer calves g
than they did before the association
existed. The scrub has no place on 1|
the farm today?help us eradicate
him. ^ 53
It is my plan to get better hogs
in the county. We need some real
foundation breeding stock. To this
end I am worKing to get a ,
boar of some breed into every
school district in the county. This I
will be accomplished through the B
pig club members and adults farmers.
Just recently I have purchased
25 fine gilts and boars, costing
from $30 to $35 each. Of the *
25 hogs purchased there were 19! 1
gilts and six boars, all being pur- ,
chased there were 19 gilts and six i the
boars, all being purchased from the'
very best breeders in the South.
The Planters Bank of Abbeville' ^
was generous enough to purchase
most of the pigs for the club mem- '
bers, giving the boys twelve montns
to pay for same. This is helping a' IV
worthy cause, because when you'
drill into a boy's life the necessity
for raising better livestock you ^
make a better and moi;e useful far-1
mer and citizen out of him. The'
bovs are the farmers of tomorrow ?<>i
\* , 1
and it is up to the parents and busi- ^
ucss men to make better far- nar
mors of them than we happen to be bol;
ourselves. As the farmer prospers
so the town or city men prosper. gjv{
Today when so many of our boys ster
are moving to the town we should
put forth every effort to counter- a h<
act same. *A year hence there will a n
