LUCKYSTRIKE cigarette. Flavor is sealed in by toasting COUNTY AGENT ORGANIZES COMMUNITY AGRICULTURAL CLUBS With th vassistance of Mr. B. 0. Williams, Assistant State uiud Agent, I have organized several Community Boys' Agricultural Clubs an the County. The object of these clubs will be primarily to pro-, mote farm Hfe. It is planned to hold monthly meetings with the clubs, at which a definite program dealing with different phases of farming, will be recited by the boys. There is nothing truer than "Knowledge is Power" and as soon as the farmer acquires the proper knowledge of scientific farming and an apprecia tion of farm life, we will 'be living amist a New South. It is also plan ned to give the boys belonging to these clubs entertainments of vari ous kinds. Farmers are too isolated, that is, they don't have their social gatherings and amusements that we see in the towns and cities. The boys will be urged to play baseball and f/wthnll basketball and other games, fishing trips and picnics will be given. The fojkxwng clubs have been or ganized : Donalds Boys' Community Agri cultural Club: Preident, Herbert Williamson; , Vice-President, Haynie McDonalds; i Secretary, Truman May.

ELLIS, Mga. mauve tribe little known Tehuclehes of Patagonia Have Many of the Characteristic* of North American Indians. Many are the strange and interest ing native tribes that are found in the Americas. Among the most Interest ing are the people of the ostrich, who inhabit au almost as yet unknown country, and in language, and char acter, and race, are altogether difi tinct from other Indians, says an ar ticle on "People of the Ostrich" in Boys' life. They live in the remote and almost legendary regions of the "land of large-feeted men"?a land, that like Chill, Peru, Mexico, and northwest South America, has its. story of the existence of a hidden city among the unexplored wilds of their Cordilleras. The Tehuelches of Patagonia, that vast peninsular end of South America, are scattered across It, from the Straits of Magellan and the Rio Ne gro?a territory of over 1,000 mlleii in length and 300 at Its narrowest A brave, active, athletic people, won derful horsemen, singularly expert with their weapons and Implements, who lead a wandering life, and hunt the wild cattle, the guanacos?and ostriches. For Patagonia is a borne of that splendid bird, which was there ages before men crossed its path in the faraway wilds of the in terior. To the Tehuelches, this fine bird is as Important in their existence as the guanaco, for they are a race of Hunters, and grow but little rood ror themselves. PREACHES FROM AN AIRPLANE ?i? Minister With Many Parithe* to Cover Put* Modern Mode of Travel to Good Uu. No (oiling church bells announce to the little communities scattered, through one section of America's great Northwest the periodic Sunday morn ing arrival of the region's most en terprising itinerant evangelist. In stead. they hear the coughing exhaust of an engine, as his airplane spirals down upon the village. Drawn irre sistibly by the novelty of the visit, they flock to the airplane, now at rest in a nearby field or meadow. They And the preacher on his feet in the pilot's cockpit of the plane "Sky Pilot," ready to begin his discourse. Explanation of this strangest of all the airplane's uses is found in the evangelist's decision, some months ago, that the time and energy required for | constant travel among distant parishes was seriously curtailing his effective ness. He decided to defy all precedent by allying aeronautics and religion. He first subjected himself to a rigorous course of training, and became an ac complished airman. He then pur chased hig plane, selecting a three seater of sporting type.

Women Crave Excitement ^ The wife of a very wealthy man was arrested with a group of bandits after a pistol battle with the police, in which the woman was shot, in the arm. She is a woman who has trav eled, is educated and bears every evi- J dence of refinement. The police saj j that there are many women of this . kind who work with thieves unbe- I known to their families. The call of adventure Is the prime motive. In a 1 raid on an East side wine cellar re- ' cently ten men and one woman were taken to headquarters in a patrol. All the men had criminal records. The woman is happily married to all ap pearances, and is a patron of the opera. She said the men and women In her set were dull and that she liked on/I mint?la wlfh the meL IV 5^1 V?fc UUW who lived by their wits and were not afraid of dangerous paths.?New York Times. The Chef'* Daily Manicure. One of the daily events i* the life of a chef in any of the large New York hotels is his morning manicure. Before he touches food, his hands are carefully washed and his nails are cleaned, cut and polished. The Job is not given to a sweet girl manicurist, but to one of the hotel physicians. He is always on hand during the day; should the chef acci- i dentally cut himself, the doctor will bandage the wound, as he Is there for I that purpose. Chefs are precious these days; many ij of the French ones?unable to get jj their daily bottles of wine?have gone II back to France, where the thought of !| prohibition can still be treated as a I joke, though even in France there are J heard ominous rumbles between the J Jokes passed at our expense.?Popa.ai | Science Monthly. To Jail by Airplane. Aerial policemen in San Franclnco are thus far the flrsfc to make use of the airplane to conduct a prisoner to jail, via the automobile patrol. The sky route offers the most direct passage between two places, and In this Instance the prisoner was trans ferred from the Alexandra county jail across the bay of San Francisco to the locality where an automobile patrol was waiting t<^ continue the Journey through the city. Where it Is neces sary to save time, the airplane can be of service, as in this case. When the air becomes crowded with machines, the arrest of violators of j the air-tififflc laws will undoubtedly become common and aerial patrols will no longer excite comment.?Pop ular Science Monthly. TREAT YOUR SWEET POTATO SEED WITH FORMALDEHYDE It is now time to bed sweet pota toes for plants the coming season. Due to the fact that there is a con siderable loss of sweet potatoes that can be attributed to the diseases carried from storage to the beds, and fields, sweet potatoes should by all means be treated before bedding. It is a fact that from 50 per cent to 75 per cent of the entire 9,000,000 bu shels }f sweet potatoes grown in South Carolina each year is lost through poorly disease selected seed disease plants infected plants and from inrnroner storage. Think of 4. 500,000 bushels of sweet potatoes thrown away each year, merely by neglecting the above mentioned facts. South Carolina produces enough potatoes to supply her needs, 'but because of the fact we lose over 50 per cent of our entire crop each year through rot we have to import potaoes. Every potato that is bedded this year in Abbeville County should be treated with a solution of formalde hyde and water. Go to your druggist and purchase a small quantity of formaldehyde, which Is a 4o per cent solution of formalin, and treat your potatoes before bedding. Use one pint of formaldehyde to 30 gal lons of water and soak the potatoes in this solution for five minutes. The formaldehyde solution will kill! all disease germs on the potatoes. Remember the strength is one pint of formaldehyde to 30 gallons of water, and soak the potatoes for five minutes. W. A. Itowell, County Agent.
