Read what Mrs. C. M. Henry, a young Rogersvillc, Tenn., mother of four, did . . . 'For two years I suffered with gas on my stomach.

S C Picnics and Homecomings I passed a country church in the mid-statp the other day. A large! crowd was there and it was not j Sunday. I saw no signs of a fun- j eral or wedding either. So I stop-1 ped and asked some men who were ; sitting under a tree there by the road whittling and chewing the rag. They said it w^s a family reunion, and asked me to stay. 11 didn’t wanL.to butt in, even though that long pichic table told of treats to come. After talking with them a bit, I saw the ladies start drifting toward the table back there under the trees. Reluctantly I left. Community picnics now at lay by time are in order. Fond mem ories take me back to them years ago. And family reunions, too. I hear of a good many of ’em over the state. But surely there should be more. * * • Underground Insects Our insect man Nettles tells me that distinct progress towards the control of underground insects that burrow into potatoes is being made through the use of organic poisons in the fertilizer. The poisons show ing promise in this are aldrin and chlordane. In the Up Country it is the lar vae of the flea beetle that burrow into sweet potatoes. And in the j Low Country it is wireworm that| bores into Irish potatoes that caus-1 es considerable' losses. This pois-1 ons used against these pests have given promising results and the po-, tatoes did not take up objection- 1 able flavors as from some earlier; poisons thus applied. * * * . Of all things, gnat fever! Yes, of turkeys. The experts say it’s something like malaria. The men of Clemson have been studying it down in Jasper county.! The efforts now are towards keep ing this particular gnat from get ting on the turkeys. I’ll declare, new. ed that. Although I guess it is just a part of instinct to be afraid of that which we can’t see. Darkness immediately suggests hidden dan gers. If dangers are there, we can’t see them. So we fear it. We had an older cousin down the road that often came up to our house after supper. I can hear him now, yodeling, singing and yelling as he came. I thought he was very brave to scorn dangers of the night and go abroad in it by himself. But later, when I reached his age, night travel was taken for granted, and I had to go the gaits too. It was then that I adopted his tactics, af- er a few frighful experiences. Out there in the darkness of night, you can heal all sorts of things if you are quiet and of a mind to. But to pierce that dark curtain with whistling, song or yell is to largely break the barrier down. And then you proceed with a bit of confidence. One of my first trips, out at night by myself, it was a few^ hundred yards down the rapine to that cous in’s house. When I got about half way, a scurrying noise seemed to be all over the ground around me. I was never as scared before. A weak heart would have stopped then. In a moment their dog, that had met me up the path, reared up one me. I embraced it firmly as my heart toned down its pounding and my hair lay back in place. That was before I had learned to keep up a commotion while out in the dark. If I had been yelling, I wouldn’t have felt as eerie in the first place, and I wouldn’t have heard the dog scurrying among the leaves as he greeted me. So. from then on I adopted the tactics this cousin had taught me. And from then on I went about in the dark rather much unafraid.

Avoid Bruising Livestock About one out of every 10 hogs sold on the Chicago market shows bruises of some sort that ruins por tions of the carcass for food, a sur vey shows. A little over 60 per cent of these bruises were man made. Canes, whips, clubs, kick ing, prodding, etc., caused them. The use of canvass slappers that make a lot of noise but will not bruise the hog would remedy such bruises. Your county agent can tell you where to get them. And this same survey showed a little over one cow out ot 20 on that market was bruised. And these in cattle amounted ot more in dollars and cents than similar bruises on hogs. The bulk of those on cattle were man-made too. Our livestock marketing special ist, H. F. Livingston, Jr., points out the fact that the farmer pays for these bruise losses in the lower price received. So it is to his in terest to try to avoid them in get ting his livestock to market. Grass Is Immoral Grass was the first living thing the Almighty brought forth on this earth. I read that in early Genesis. During our year of clean-cultivated crops, we knew only to fight it. Now we study its culture and it promises us much. I like John J. Ingalls’ eulogy of grass. Here it is: ‘‘Grass is the forgiveness of Na ture, her constant benediction. Fields trampled with battle, satu rated with blood, torn with the ruts of cannon grow green again with grass, and carnage is forgotten. Streets abandoned by traffic be come grass-grown, like rural lanes, and are obliterated. Forests decay, harvests peish, flowers vanish, but grass is immortal. “Beleagured by the sullen hosts of winter, it withdraws into the im pregnable fortress of its subterran ean vitality and emerges upon the first solicitation of spring. Sown by the winds, by the wandering birds, propogated by the subtle horticulture of the elements, which are its ministers and servants, it softens the rude outline of the world. “Unobtrusive and patient, it has immortal vigor and 4 aggression. Banished from the thoroughfare and the field, it bides its time to return, and when vigilance is re laxed, or the dynasty has perished, it silently resumes the throne from which it has been expelled, but which it never abdicates. It bears no blazonry or bloom to Charm the sensse with fragrance and splendor, but its homely hue is more en chanting than the lily or the rose. It yields no fruit on earth or air, and yet should it* harvest fail for a single year, famine would de populate the earth.” + + * Boys Ar* That Way Earliest recollection carries me back to being frightfully afraid of the dark. ^ I think the tale of spooks and other things of the night told us by our colored playmates largely caus- THE ARMY STORE, Inc Pre- School EXTRA VALUES! - LOW PRICES!
