And they wonder if production is down. The fact is, production is vastly up ' from those times of plenty. But ! folks are using more. And whole .new states and regions have started : using it. Listen to this from Wallace’s Far mer of Iowa, where a few years ago I they hardly knew what fertilizer was: “Have you ordered your fertilizer? , Unless farmers order now, dealers can't get supplies started out to the country from fertilizer b^nts. If : orders come late, a transportation j jam may keep shipments from arriv- i ing in time to do you any good.” That sounds like South Carolina. For Clemson's Woodtle put out iden tical advice a few weeks ago. We used to wait until we needed it and then, buy our fertilizer. The volume has gotten so great now that the-manufacturers have to work full time to supply the demand. And that, means that we must take it all along. For they don’t have storage for a full year’s supply nor the facilities to move it all in a short t. ne, as they used to with a far less volume. fertilizer usually applied High fertility and adequate seed ing* explain the wonderful winter grazing that we are learning how to have’ in this state. I have seen cases recently where fanners actual ly have more fine green grazing than their cattle can keep down They ’Anil cut hay there a little later. Now, folks, where that’s possible we have something And it is a mighty important •‘something’’. It gives us an advantage over most of the rattle country that’s real. And that grazing pays in milk and beef. • County agents have been con ducting tours in many counties so that others might see this winter’s grazing The average man who has cattle will likely come from one of those tours a changed man and re solved to have some of that good stuff next winter. I try to avoid being in a hurry. It is very simple. Start in time and you won’t be. SEEN ALONG THE ROADSIDE By J. M. Eleazer, Clemson Extension Information Specialist Colonel Robert E. Wysor, of this city, was honor gueut along with Mrs. Wysor at the “Military Day" activi ties held on the Presbyterian college campus Friday. He is shown above making the main addressi at a ban quet at which 250 ROTC students and their guests gathered during the evening. The miliUry unit paraded in formal dress before an approximate crowd of 600 before the banquet. Colonel Wysor, now retired, was pro fessor of military science- and tactics at Presbyterian for eight years. He served as commanding officer at Canv> Blanding in Florida during the war. Left to right seated at the table are Mrs. Wysor, Cadet Lt. Col. Marvin Gibbs, battalion commander of the college un’t, and Miss Jean Layton, of this city. > ~ -1 -I no longer comes from low-grade oleo oil nor from foreign vegetable oils. It comes from your own cottonseed oil grown there in your own country and from soybean oil perhaps grown in Calhoun, Orangeburg, Beaufort, or Edgefield counties. , And Dr. Wilds at Hartsville says the oil comtent of cotton seed can be increased by breeding. And he and John Wannamaker at St. Mat thews and others are breeding bet ter yielding soybeans that don’t shat ter. The future is interested in this thing. For, remember, the voice of history says, as population thicken in a country, it becomes necessary to eat more and more plant fats and proteins and relatively less from an imal sources. So why continue to tax the things that must sustain us more and more? Clifford Smith of Newberry coun ty has 180 head of fine dairy cattle. His farm is one of the most beauti ful I have ever seen. Wonderful green grazing blankets his lands the year around. He told a group there the other day that if they w r anted to have good grazing just double the recommended seedings and triple the A soybean that does not shat^M - ! We have that now. Cotton seed, an unsung major food product. We have had that a long time. Producers of nutritions protein feeds and vegetable food fats, these oil seeds grow in importance as pop ulations thicken. Years and silk. Vegetable fats imitate hog lard in that they serve the identical purposes of lard and are made to look like it. Yet the hog growers do not have, an unfair advantage over those vegetable fats in the form of taxes because a product of their’s Ixiks like lard. CITY SHOE SHOP Pitts Street Expert Shoe Repairing Clinton ond Goldville S. D. Dawkins Ai Son*. Dr. Hart In this world that needs food, it is high time to remove this tax on a human food source that is easily ago, when it didn’t matter, ’ capable of enlargement as fast as taxes, thought to be prohibitive, were levied against one of the chief prod ucts of vegetable oil, margarine.' That rocked on for a long time with little notice. For we were a young and rich country. We were still in that fabulous era during wheih we as a country lived by an-, imal fats and proteins almost entire ly. And when this lowly margarine from a plant threatened lordly but ter from an animal, we would have none of it arid slapped multiple taxes upon it. The vegetable oils from) which it was made was largely im ported then; so who cared? That went on for about two gen erations. The cry against the inaqui-J ty grew among those who must eat until at long last it looks like this unjust tax against a wholesome, nu tritious, and plentiful food will soon, be removed. We grow practically all of the oil into margarine now. In the meantime, we have had a great war. Butter has been so scarce at times that we couldn’t get it, even if we could pay for it, twice the price of margarine ,rts full equal in every respect! Milk is a great food. And we are told that all we produce and more is needed as such for drink ing, ice cream making, evaporating, drying, etc. And despite the very high price that butter has been, its production continues to go down ir. the country. And that despite the fact that the multiple taxes on margarine still hold. £3*'* « Artificial coloring is iir ^oth butter and margarine. Pound for pound the scientists tell us that 1 they are identical in good vailue. Yet to»get a‘pound of wholesome colored margarine, do you know the taxes that you pay? In fact you pay all of, them, for such taxes are usually passed on to the man who eats it. To start and go backwards with it, you pay ten cents tax on that pound of colored margarine. The re humanity needs it." And the growing needs for dairy products will likely take care of them in any volume of production that now seems possible. And to bring it home to us here, that margarine you buy at your store Folks wonder why fertilizer is ra ther scarce, whereas it used to be JOHN F.

Realizing the nervous system ,—as the key to health, the Chi ropractic Profes sion cbnfined its research to the study of the nerves and their relation to health. Research r e - vealed that ill health could be the result of nerve pressure, caused by a misaligned bone of the spine Further research re vealed that removal of this pressure resulted in restora tion of health. “It’s the nerves," says the modern doctor. But the nerves should not be numbed or cut. Have your Chiropractor locate and remove the pressure from the nerves WTien this is done, normal function will be re stored. For further information con cerning Chiropractic and what it can do to restore health, consult— DR. C. J. HART of Laurens He is located at 254 W. Main St., just one block from Post Office, next to First Methodist Church. \ Zook inside—outside - a//around Me car- (s tie ??mtAauti/i// LBUjfofertt tailer you buy it from has 4o pay a retail license of $48 a year. The wholesaler he got it from has to pay a license of $480 a year to supply it. And the fellow who makes it has to pay $600 a year for that privilege. All of this goes to the federal govern ment. And, on top of that, many states have additional taxes on it. And in 19 states they won’t allow it to be sold at all! No wonder the consumers in this country are waking up and asking that this gross discrimination against a good and needed food be removed. For the leading scientists of the country have declared the fortified margarine, that’s on your grocer’s shelf, to be the full and complete equal of good butter in every nu tritional respect. And it has been selling for about half the price of butter, despite these taxes. Once margarine .was made large ly from low-grade animal fats, oleo oil principally. It was then that folks started adding the oleo to the word margarine. Now it is made almost wholly from clean sterile veg etable oils, and there is no room for the prefex oleo. It is margarine, and nothing else. Webster’s dictionary de fines “margarine” as ’’artificial but ter”. And Congress in the Margar ine act of 1878 wrote out the follow ing: “The word margarine shall mean all substance, whether com pounds or otherwise, prepared in im itation of blitter, and whether mixed with butter or not.” Hayon and wool imitate cotton in that they often carry the same color and serve the same purposes. Yet we in the cotton country, nor any where else I know of, don’t tax rayon THE STYIEUNE DE IUXE 4 DOOR SEDAN WMto Nr+s optional ot •Mtm coat- j/or/t/ttmtue. view... an///row eirru rieuywint The most Beautiful BUY for Styling The most Beautiful BUY for Driving and Riding Ease ' The most Beautiful BUY for Performance with Economy Every test you make at the traffic light, on the hills, on the straightaway—and of gasoline and oil mileage at journey’s end — will confirm your own deep-seated conviction that Chevrolet is the most beautiful buy of all for performance with economy!
