By J• M. M JKAZ1SB,
Clcmson Collere Extension Infor
mation Specialist
County Agent Ezell of Newberry,
points out that farmers who planted
velvet beans last summer had little
trouble feeding their cattle through
the winter.
A hard winter cut winter grazing,
where a good reserve of fall growth
•was not built up. But where velvet
beans had been planted in the corn,
those fields were invaluable in win
tering the cattle.
The velvet bean was once a
great crop in this role in South

HADACOL Is
Requested
By Nurses
HADACOl Hslps Folks Suffering
Doficisnclss of Vitamins B u
B* Niacin and Iron.
Registered nurses, in increasing
numbers, are showing a keen in
terest in HAD
ACOL and in
the results that
are being se
cured with this
f reat modern
ormula. Re
quests have
been received
from many of
these nurses
for professional
samples of
HADACOL and
Mrs. Lovett many of them
indicated that they recommend
the HADACOL formula to pa
tients who are deficient in Vita
mins Bi, B., Iron and Niacin.
Mrs. L. D. Lovett, a registered
nurse who lives at 2205 Walnut
St, Philadelphia 3, Pennsylvania,
says this about HADACOL:
“I was down in Florida for the
past month. I had no energy so
several members of my family told
me to try a bottle of HADACOL
My sister, who is a nurse, was
taking a bottle so I tried a bottle.
I feel fine since taking HADA
COL 1 do private duty here. I am
50 years old.”
HADACOL can help you if
you suffer such deficiencies. Ask
your druggist for HADACOL to

Carolina. And also as a soil builder.
But in recent years it has almost
disappeared from our fields. I won
dered why and asked several folks.
The principal reason seems to be
the difficulty of getting good seed.
You just can’t hardly get folks to!
pick any for seed. And early frosts
often get them before many are ma
ture. They are hard to thrash too.
With interest growing in livestock
and soil building, the old velvet'
bean is worthy of returning to our|
fields. Of course, where corn is
to be mechanically harvested, they
must not be interplanted. But we
hog down a lot of corn now. The
hogs can go in there and get the
com, even though it might be wrap
ped up to a fare-ye^well with bean
vines. The beans are not much for
hogs, and some think they even
make piggy sows abort. Dry cat
tle and beef cattle do well on them.
And they will eat them on out
through the winter, as long as they
last. A ton of beans to the acre is
not unusual. And that’s a lot of
protein feed to make in addition to
the com crop.
On the first of January County
Agent Griffin of Oconee said.
“We have not observed a winter (
pasture in the past two weeks that;
had sufficient growth to jutify I
grazing. As a matter of fact, the
recent cold weather has had the ef
fect of stopping growth in all pas
ture crop plants and we have no
winter pastures upon which to graze
cattle in the county. Our hay crop
is exceedingly short, due to the
short crop of lespedeza produced,
and many farmers, particularly
dairy and beef cattle farmers, are
up against a real tough feed prob
lem. As a matter of fact, many of)
them will have to buy their rough
ages.”
All of which brings up the sub
ject of management. For that is the
thing we will have to master if our
grazing is to mean the most.
I learned something in Laurens
and Newberry in January. Saw
some fine grazing that was still car
rying cattle there. But is was al
lowed to carry a big reserve of sum
mer and fall produced forage into
the winter.
We are just in our ABC’s of this
grass thing. We know we can grow
fine grass here. And now the thing
to work out is our management of
it. We need summer pastures like
bermuda, da lias grass, and lespe
deza, too. And while they carry
,the stock, the ladino and fescue can
be making its reserve of growth to
take into winter. Then, ii it is a
i hard winter that stops growth, you
1 have something there to tide the cat-
| tie over.
And I’ve never been able to see
lit yet that we didn’t need a reserve
i of hay, silage, or straw. For, un
less you have irrigation, drought can
I parch your pastures into nothing at
times. And during hard winters,
we can’t get growth on the land,
unless we carry it in from fall.
Therefore, some rough hay, silage
or straw is good to have to fall back
on.
The straw can be saved from the
grain harvest. And good pastures
often need cutting during the grow-
thy part of summer to get weeds and
to take out a lot of the tougher
growth away so tender grass can
continue to grow. That makes sil-,
age or cures readily and can be
stacked for hard times like this win-'
ter..
Since corn and grain are receiv
ing more attention, their yields are
going up rather fast. And that calls ^
for better storage, safe storage. Ele
vators went up at Anderson, Easley,
and Florence the past year. And
they have served a most useful pur-'
pose already. While with County,
Agent McLendon of Florence, we
visited that one there. It had shell-,
dried and stored 42,775 bushels of
corn for local farmers. And the
local price has almost doubled since
it was stored there last fall. Such
storage makes grain and corn as
marketable as cotton or tobacco.
And a source of credit too.
Boys Are That Way
To me, as a kid, a railroad en
gine was about the most miraculous
contraption. And the engineer was
number one in my imagination too.
The only sort I had ever seen was
the little wood-toumer type that
pulled our trains through the Fork.
But to me they were the most
frightening, awe-inspiring things 1
had ever beheld. I was afraid to
get near them, as they belched forth
a steady stream of smoke, steam and
cinders. And in the winter it was
dark when our 6 o’clock daily mixed
train from Columbia hit our part of
the country. And then the engine
was a frightful sight for sure, belch
ing fire and scattering a shower of
burning cinders.
I often imagined I was the en
gineer handling that monater. (Com
pared to a modern mogul of the
rails, it was a veritable coffee pot).
Riding through the-bogs and quag
mires of the Julian woods once on
what we called a road, I imagined I
was driving that engine. I was with
a deaf cousin, in his top buggy, the
first one like that I had ridden in. I
imagined the large nut that held it
there by the side of the seat was the
throttle. By turning it back and
forth, I would give her the steam
and make the needed noise low with
my mouth. I was riding in my dream
world then until something hap
pened. »
That nut came off and that side of
the top fell down on me, scaring the
horse, and a runaway was narrowly
averted. I said, “The nut came off,
and here it is; I caught it.” He
thought that was a lucky coinci
dence, and I never told him any
better.
BLOOD PRESSURE
I
Corrected By Proven
System of Treatment
What better PROOF than expressions of appreciation from former patients — from people who
suffered the symptoms of abnormal blood pressure before coming to Dr. Hart. We have many, many
letters from former patients expressing appreciation and gratitude for treatments that put them on
the road to recovery. We know you are vitally interested in knowing what these people have to say
AFTER treatment by Dr. Hart. The following is one of these letters; read it carefully—it tells its own
story.
ADVISES SICK PEOPLE TO CONSULT DR. HART
“For nine weeks, I suffered with head
aches, dizzy spells and backaches. I was be
ing treated for low blood pressure but didn’t
feel any better. I had no appetite, was ner
vous and losing weight fast. I had no energy
and my feet and legs felt tired and weak.
Sometimes after eating there would be pains
in my stomach. My friends and neighbors
advised me to try Chiropractic, so I consulted
Dr. C. J. Hart, of Laurens,” says Mr. G. L
Moore, 16 Wallace St., Wattsville, S. C.
“After an examination. Dr. Hart found the
cause of my trouble and started treatment.
I began to feel better the very first day. I
returned to work and gradually but surely
gained my strength back, even though I was
working every day. I lost that tired feeling,
my headaches, dizzy spells and backache dis
appeared. My appetite returned and I gained
11 pounds weight during the first six weeks,
and worked every day during that time. My
digestion improved, bowel movements be
came normal, and it was no longer necessary
to take laxatives.
“It has been more than three years since
Dr. Hart dismissed me and I have had no
further trouble. I have continued to work
every day and feel good. I take this oppor
tunity to speak for Dr. Hart and what he has
done for me. If you are sick and suffering ill
health, I suggest that you consult Dr. Hart.”
Nervous System Is Key to Blood Pressure Problems
The maintenance of normal blood pressure is dependent upon
normal nerve action. Nerves which control heart action and nerves
which control the size of blood vessels are connected with the brain
and spinal cord. Irritation of these spinal nerves as they pass
throu£i the openings between bones of the spinal column may re
sult in a depleted nerve force and causing an abnormal blood
pressure.
Dr. Hart's wide experience and valuable training qualifies him
to correct disorders of the circulating system.
If you are suffering the symptoms of an abnormal blood pres
sure—such as headaches, dizziness, spots before the eyes or physi
cal weakness, you should have the cause of your trouble located
and corrected. You will want to have this done immediately because
it is dangerous to delay.
A Great Tragedy
One of the greatest tragedies of our times is the large numfber
of persons who go to their graves prematurely, due to various con
ditions which cause abnormal blood pressure. Each day many lives
are lost that might easily have been saved had proper treatment
been started in time and continued long enough. Even when treat
ment for conditions causing atonormal blood pressure has been de
layed, as a rule, much can be done to relieve the symptoms and
remove imminent danger.
Don't Take Chances!
You can’t afford to! It is the most costly thing in the woe
neglect your health. Don’t wait! Make arrangements now to
suit Dr. Hart. Let him And the real cause of vour trouble.
