ar.ri good health usually results in This column is not written to give
good marks. If your child does not an >' reader medical advice. My pur-1
. , , „ , pose is to appeal to colleges to give
do well in school or college, it prob- attention to the eating habits
of their students. Colleges insist that
the students be at classes at 9:00 o’-!
clock and remain in the class fifty ;
minutes, yet these same colleges have]
no rules as to whether the students!
spend five minutes or thirty minutes
on eating a breakfast which is far:
, more important than their class work.
When it comes to other meals, the,
policy seems to be to feed the stu
dents what they want which mostly
consists of starches, fats and sweets
which they should eat only to a lim
ited extent. Certainly, colleges
would oe justified in having a spe
cial table for those students behind
in their grades, insisting that—until
they get caught up— they have reg
ular meals, spend a half hour at the
table and eat a special diet. Frank-1
( !y.. I believe if colleges would spend l
■ more money on food, students might j
! '.earn as much m three years as they 1
now do in four, especially if in the
right climate
The above thoughts aUo apply toj
public school lunches. Most large
schools now have dieticians butj
these women are used chiefly to

If they don't supply the children)
'with enough hot dogs, coffee and*
cakes, the kids go on a strike! These
dietir.ans know what the children
should eat. but are largely helpless!
in gett.ng the children to eat prop- j
erly.
Certainly, the dietician should have |
absolute control of the lunches eaten
by the children who are behind in ■
the.r students This is only reason
able It would be giving the dieti-!
cian no more power as to lunches
than what the teachers now have as
lessons, hours, and behacior. Not (
only would such a special diet be a
leal help to the backward children,
but it might result in a better diet!
for these cchildren at home, this
would surely help their marks.

October Busy Month
For Alert Formers,
.Agent Points Out
Besides the usual harvesting ot
the m^in crops, there is plenty of
important work to do in October,
says County Agent C. B. Cannon,
making these timely suggestions:
Agronomy
1. Plant more winter grazing crops.;
fertilize liberally with a complete
fertilizer at planting, and top-dress
when 2 to 3 inches high with 30 to
40 pounds of nitrogen. 2. Plant small
grains on a firm seedbed for best re
sults. 3. Seed wheat after the first
killing frost. 4. Plant more winter!
cover crops to reduce loss of plant!
food and to add nitrogen. 5. Cover j
South Carolina with a “Blanket of J
Green” this winter. 6. Destroy cot
ton stalks as soon as cotton picking
is completed. 7. Be certain that the
grain sorghum and crotalaria are
thoroughly dry and mature when
harvested; then store in a dry place.’

1. Select varieties, adapted to your
section, and place* order for fruit
trees for home orchards with a re
liable nursery. Try some of the new
varieties. Get Extension Bulletin 89,
The Farm Orchard. 2. Treat peach
trees for borer control. 3. Plant win
ter cover crop and apply fall fertil
izer in orchards. 4. Thin out young
turnips, beets, kale. . spinach, and
lettuce to hasten development. 5. Ga
ther green tomatoes just before frost
and store in a cool E>lace; even half-
grown ones will ripen. 6. If the sup
ply of green is limited, plant im
mediately some Seven-top turnips or
other kinds. 7. Dig sweet potatoes
before frost; get Extension Circular
269, Handling, Curing, and Storing
Sweet Potatoes.
Agriculturing Engineering
1. In planting small grain set fur
row-openers to run as much as three
inches deep if possible. This may
prevent some winter-killing. 2.
Check over plows, cultivators, and
other idle machinery for needed re
pairs and cover all bright parts with
grease or rust-prevention compound.
3. Repair breaks or low places or ter-

t’s part of every street scene—something
you see every day.
Car owners in three different price classes
—all happy about the same thing.
One of them drives a new Buick Special,
which you see poking forth its new, bold-look
forefront at the left of our picture.
Another will tell you there’s nothing like
the Super’s “happy medium” of size and
comfort, power and easy handling, style and
standing. •
i
And if you’re looking for prestige, where is
your money going to buy so much as in that
handsome 18-footer, the Roadmaster, with
its 150-hp performance and really royal
bearing?
But all these good folks get together on this:
There’s no ride quite so soft and cushiony
as the Buick ride, whatever the size and
series. There’s no pow er quite so satisfyingly
lively as Buick’s high-compression, high*
pressure Fireball power.
Above all, there’s no “buy” like a Buick—
no car that gives you such a rich dollar’s
worth of smartness, handling, comfort and
liveliness for every dollar you pay.
So why not look the whole line over? Your
Buick dealer has these grand travel-mates
in a baker’s dozen of different body types
and sizes. Start your shopping in his show
room—and you’ll find that even on delivery
he has exactly what you want.
