Pajre Four THE CUNTON CHRONICLE ■ ■ Thursday, May 10, 1051 Sciatica Sufferer Throws Cane Away After Treatment • I began to jret relief from the ex cruciating pain almost immediately following the tirst adjustment, said Mr A I. Garrison, Rt 3, Laurens, S C. The following week I discard ed the walking cane and returned to my job. "Before consulting Dr. C. J. Hart, 1 was suffering with severe pains in my left hip, which radiated into my leg. 1 was having severe headaches and cramping spells in my lejfs every day. These cramping spells had been coming on for years and causing me no. end of trouble. After receiving Chiropractic ad justments trom Dr. Hart, I obtained relief from pains in my left hip, the headaches cleared up and the cramp ing spells finally disappeared.” —Adv. sum ECONOMIC LOSS DUE TO AUTO WRECKS DURING 1950 WAS $7,858,700 South Carolina's estimated eco nomic loss due to traffic accidents amounted to $7,858.T00 during 1950, Chief Highway Comm isioner Claude R. McMillan said yesterday. The total was one and a half mil lion dollars more than in 1949 when the loss was $6,329,100. The estimated loss included costs of each fatal accident, each non-fa- tal accident and accidents which cause only property damage, based on national standard averages, Mr. McMillan said. It did not. however, include an account for the misery and heart break suffered by victims' families, the chief commissioner added, since such losses cannot be measurd in dollars and cents. Mr. McMillan pointed out that the losses in each county rose or dropped largely in proportion to the number of fatal accidents in the | county. Laurens county lasses for the years 1949 and 1950 were $209,- I 700 and $110,000. CREDITORS NOTICE All persons having claims against the estate of James R.

Clemson College Extension Infor mation Specialist Long Cotton in Chesterfield Chesterfield has some communi ties that have long specialized in longstaple cotton. Very little is grown anywhere else in the state. But there’s still an oasis of it up there. County Agent Willis has five demonstrations in growing late strains of it this year. Long staple in cotton is a character that has been bred into it. Relax a little, and cotton goes back to what it came from. W. H. Jenkins at Clemson’s Flor ence station has been working for years at breeding some Sea Island cotton blood into upland types. His work is now far advanced and put out w’ith the growers of Ches terfield. It is these new strains that a promising strain or two has been Willis tries out every few years in demonstration plantings under farm conditions- The long staple cotton business is a specialty that just everybody shouldn't try. It calls for the right about handling, drying, ginning, promptly, and Special knowledge lands, plenty of labor for picking etc. With long cotton, you must get a good grade, or it w'on’t pay. Andarson Doings From 250 acres of pimento pep pers last year, Anderson county is putting out something like 1.200 acres this year, according to Coun ty Agent Hopkins. They are also fall tomatoes. He says it looks like holding community meetings about several hundred acres of them, too, this year. You are seldom out of sight of good pastures over Anderson. Hop kins says they now have 35,000 acres of improved permanent and temporary pastures there. The past year 21 of their farmers qualified for the 100-bushel com club. The 5-point Clemson Plan for growing corn is being widely used there, “and it’s filling cribs,” he says. Game Birds and Fish Ponds in Lancaster In Lancaster, 126 4-H Club boys are enrolled in their quail raising project. And County Agent Cannon tells me that these youngsters set out 64,000 lespedeza bilcolor plants for permanent bird feed the past winter. The number of fish pohds, too is growing fast in Lancaster. They build ’em by the score each year there. They serve several purposes. They grow fish. They furnish water for stock. And they are sure to grow into sources of water with which, farmers will soon be wiping out droughts at places. Your SCS man will help you plan and construct a pond, and your county agent has the Clemson bulletin by Sam Wil liams on building and maintaining farm bonds. Sam says an acre of properly fertilized pond will grow as many pounds of fish in a year as a properly fertilized pasture will beef. And look at the fun you’d have catching ’em! Beef CailU in Laurens I wonder if Laurens county does not lead in the purebred beef cattle business in the state? County Agent Cannon tells me they have 30 breeders of registered Herefords and 5 of Angus cattle. Of the CO bulls sold in the recent State Hereford Breeders’ sale, 17 were furnished by Laurens breeders. Largest Paper Machine The world’s largest paper ma chine is at Georgetown. It takes over 100 car loads of pulpwood a day to keep that mam moth outfit running. And the wood - j lands of this area supply that, as| well as the mill at Charleston, and some goes to out of state mills, too. For a while we feared what the pulpwood business would do to the future tunbar supply. Much ruin ous cutting at first did blast many an area. But as time goes on folks see new values in their woodlands. And they are heeding, more and more the advice of the forester to selectively cut, or at least leave seed trees. Thus in some areas per petual harvest is assured, selective ly cutting a tenth of the area each year, and getting around every 10 years. We are having to learn a whole new scheme of management for the woods, now that we farm them like a crop, only we don’t cultivate, just keep fire out. Boys Are That Way I was in strange country when our old wood-burner left Little Mountain, nine miles from home, headed for Laurens, 45 miles away. I was just riding to Laurens for fun. My father was the country doctor and he got me a pass. Soon Newberry was reached. I had heard my mother talk a lot about that place. She was raised in that section and went to school there. There I was 25 miles from home, the farthest I had ever been. I hung out of the window most of the time, specially when it was on a curve, watching those drivers roll. Up ^he road from Newberry I got a cinder in my eye that both ered me a lot and stayed there un til I got to Laurens and a man at the drug store put a flax seed in and chased the thing out. There at the Laurens depot I saw my first coal-burning locomotive. It was on the C&WC. It had a small stack, our wood-burners had very large stacks. I picked a piece of that hard heavy coal up and ex amined it minutely. Our charcoal was light. It was heavy. Ours soiled your hands a little; it a lot. I put a piece of it in my pocket and took it back home with me. That pocket never got clean again. At home I showed it to the folks. Then for years it was kept in a tray of curios on the whatnot there In the corner of the parlor near Uncle Sandorfs enlarged picture. After I returned from that great adventure in 4he outer world, the FINAL SETTLEMENT Take notice that on the 31st day of May, 1951, I will render a final account of ray acts and doings as Administrator of the estate of George Watson Meadors, in the of fice of the Judge of Probate of Lau rens County, at 10 o’clock ajn., and on the same day will apply for a final discharge from my trust as Administrator. Any person indebted to said es tate is notified and required to make payment on or before that date; and all persons having claims against said estate will present them on or before said date, duly proven or be forever barred. A. CLARK MEADORS, \ Administrator, ril 16, kids in the community asked me many questions about that strange land, away up there at Laurens, buggy that was a good two-days' 54 miles from home! By horse and trip. By train it was only 3 hours (18 miles an hour!) The world was sure getting fast. Time rolled on, and two, years ago I ate breakfast in Greenville and supper in Spokane, Washing ton! And on a jet plane now one could eat breakfast here, dinner on the Pacific coast, and then supper back here. MORE PEOPLE ARE READING THE CHRONICLE THAN EVER BEFORE!

Tax CLINTON BUS STATION East Carolina Ave. You’re the proud owner of a Buick— and the whole world knows it. But you—at the wheel—enjoy a long list of differences that go far deeper than looks. The ride is different—level and true. You sit the road with special assurance - because Buick’s torque-tube drive keeps rear wheels firmly aligned—soft coil springs on all four wheels soak up the bumps and bobbles—honest weight keeps yoti 6n a steady keel. Tmm I. HFNRY J. TAYLOR, ABC N.fworl, rmry Mondo* The power is different-eager and sure. Buick’s high-compression Fireball engine does wonders with fuel — and no matter what you demand in emer gency, there’s horsepower to spare. Handling is different—this car seems to steer itself on straightaway or curve -and swings lightly into parking spots inches shorter than you’d think you need. Capping it all, there’s the silken versa tility of Dynaflow Drive,* that takes all the tenseness out of driving - responds to your slightest wish with a surging swoop of power. No doubt about it, what you get in a Buick is far more than just a new car — it’s a whole new experience in get ting pleasurably from here to there. So why not explore this difference? Come, take a Buick over and find out how very much satisfaction smart money can buy. oceMMTM*. trim and modtlt art tubjret to eko*9t utlAoal notioo.
