Watch Your Weather
During Christmas Day!
Remember Uiese old auperttl-
Uona about Christmai weather:
If the aun ahinea through the
apple tree on Chriatmaa day,
there will he a good crop the fol
lowing year.
If ice will hear a man before
Chriatmaa, It will not boar a
monte afterward.
Thnnder and lightning Chriat
maa week meana much anow the
reat of the winter.
Wet eauaea more damage than
froat before than after Chriatmaa.
If It anowa Chriatmaa night, the
hop crop will be good next year.
At Chriatmaa meadowa green,
at Easter covered with frost.
If windy Christmas day, trees
will bear much fruit.
Christmas wet gives empty
granary and barrel.
A green Christmas makes a fat
graveyard.
A warm Christmas, a cold
Easter.
Clemson, Dec. 17.—That the risiftc
sun of 1940 sheds “More Light on
Farm Living in South Camliim” is
the themo of extension chreuiar 177
, issued by extenskm specialists as a
guide in farm family plans for the
coming year, announces A. B. Bryan,
agricultural editor.'
With special emphasis on planning
for the cash income, foods for health,
home conveniences, marketing of
farm products, circular 177 throws
more light in these phases of the
year’s program.
The general outlook situation in
1940, reviewed briefly in the circular,
gives indications about prospects for
the main cash crops produced in the
fltate-rcotton, toba^o, livestock, fruit
and truck crops.
A second section of the circular
urges that farm family planning for
future security should include rural
; housing improvements, better buy-
jing, .producing and using a health
giving food supply, more poultry and
I eggs for the state, better nvarket-
jing of farm products, and careful
'attention to a clothing budget.
I The information given is particular-
'ly timely just now following the
I county outlook meetings which are
j being iheld over the state and the
I growing realization that planning is
necessary in each farm family for
the most satisfiaotory farm and home
agents or from tbe publication de-
ipartment at Clemson.

beginning in the
youthful reform
er of 19 who was almost stoned to
death preaching in slums and de
nouncing *‘rum.’’ Penniless and with
four children, the Booths worked
tirelessly in Lxmdon amid taunts of
critics, yet old General Booth lived
to banter with jovial King Edward
and be consulted by heads of Euro
pean governments.
He also lived to see the Salvation
Army become better established in
the United States than in England,
to see it acquire banks, insurance
companies, factories, public houses,
farms, hospitals and cadet schools,
all the outgrowth of the "expedi
tionary” force of seven lassies sent
here in 1880 under George Scott Rail-
son.
