Happy Family
Reports
MRS. HAYNES AND FAMILY
"“ScalCs Indian River Medicine
Did Wonders for Me After
Nine Years of Suffering,” De
clares Mrs. Haynes. She Con
tinues: “My Little Girl Could
n't Eat, Seemed Weak and
Nervous, Looked Pale. Scalfs
Indian River Medicine Helped
Her So much That Fm Giving
It To My Son and Baby.”
Thousands of happy mothers are
depending upon Scalfs Indian River
Medicine to help protect their fam
ily’s health. For example, Mrs. Paul
Haynes, Corryton, Tenn., a Christian
mother of two lovely girls and two
sturdy boys, writes: “I had suffered
for nine years from severe spells of
stomach troubles with resultant loss
of appetite, loss of sleep, and a weak,
nervous, rundown feeling. Didn’t feel
like doing my work. I spent over a
hundred dollars for stomach treat
ments but didn’t seem to get any bet
ter. Then I turned to Scalfs Indian
River Medicine and it did wonders
for me. After taking a few bottles of
this grand somach tonic I felt much
better, then soon I had a good appe
tite with no longer a worry about in
digestion or other stomach troubles.
“My little girl had no appetite and
as a result she seemed weak and ner
vous and looked pale. I started her
on Scalfs Indian River Medicine and
soon she was eating heartily and was
so full of pep and energy she didn’t
seem like the same child, and now
I’m giving Scalfs Indian River Med
icine to my- four-year-old boy and
my thirteen-months-old baby. I can
not find words to express my thanks
for what Scalfs Indian River Medi
cine has done for my children and
for me.”
Why doubt? What Scalfs Indian
River Medicine has done for others
it may also do for you. You can’t lose
because here’s a rockibound guaran
tee of your money back on the first
bottle if not entirely satisfied. Get
your bottle of Sqalf’s Indian River
Medicine today.

Anderson Farm Doings
Diversification grows in the
farming empire of Anderson.
At Clemson’s recent Farm and
Home Week, County Agent Hop
kins came forward and received
the Grassland Farming trophy that
was presented Anderson county by
the National Fertilizer Association.
And Hopkins tells me that the
Borden Milk Station at Anderson
is receiving from 23 to 25 tons of
milk a day. This far exceeds their
early expectations when the sta
tion was built and the milk routes
started a year or two ago.

Nenmatode Control Works
County Agent McCord tells me
that the treated areas in tobacco
fields matured normally during the
past dry hot summer while adjoin
ing areas not treated against nema
tode fired and burned and much of
the leaf there was lost. King of
Marion reports excellent results on
tobacco too.
And County Agent Johnson of
Beaufort reports similar good re
sults on tomatoes.
This treatment is put down in
the furrow at fertilizing time and
costs from about $10 to $10 per
acre for material. County agents
j have the full instructions about its
use. You can get them there late
next winter when you might wish
to get ready to use this material
under valuable crops that are af
fected by this underground pest.
Remarkable results have been
secured in home gardens also.
Folks To Feed
The statistician figures there are
two and a half billion folks in the
world. And earth’s population is
increasing by 25 million each year.
eW have 155 million folks in this
country, or just a little over 6 per
cent of the earth’s total. For every'
person we have there are 16 to 16
others somewhere in the world also
hunting something to eat.
Our population increase is now
the fastest of any country on earth.
It amounts to 7,000 a day, or 2 1-2
million a year.
When We cfime Here, thefe“wefe
800,000 Indians inhabiting the land.
They had an average of 2400 acres
per person. Now we have 12 acres
of land, all told, per person. In the
world thers is an average of 14 ac
res per person. But ours averages
better land than the world as a
whole. And we are in the most
productive zone.
Holland has 10 million people
and 6 1-2 million acres of land.
That’s only two-thirds of an acre
per person. Yet they have a high
standard of living. Much of their
land was reclaimed from the rich
ocean bed, and it is farmed very
intensively.
These facts were brought out by
the famous Dr. Bear of Rutgers at
Clemson’s recent Farm and Home
Week. They help frame a picture
of earth’s future. They show us
where* we are headed. There pre
few fertile areas to add to ur pres
[ ent totals, except rich dry deserts.
All deserts of earth are not fertile.
But most of ours are. We have
1 150 million acres of that parched
land. We now irrigate 25 million
of those acres and a vast produc
tion comes from them. Dr. Bear
says we have water enough to
eventfualy irrigate perhaps 20 mil
lion additional acres of desert. And
likely the future holds the secret
for reclaiming sea water so that

bad luck to turn i around and go
back for something you forgot.
That is, unless you made a circle

We didn’t brag about good health

to make it change. And many of
our folks would not make a posi

were going to do or what they
promised to do. It was thought
that this was taking too much au

Power. Such statements were us

Regnery Fights
Density Cotton
Washington, Spt. 22. — Walter
Regnery of Joanna, S. C., chairman
of the American Cotton Manufac
turers .Institute today explained
the institute’s opposition to mak
ing high density cotton deliveries
on future contracts.
As head of the Institute's cotton
research committee, Regnery said
if the Cotton Exchange Monday
voted to permit this new type of
futures contracts to go through, it
would become a source of new
headaches for thfe American textile
plants
“Once compressed, high density
cotton cannot be readily restored
to standard density and conse
quently it is non-acceptable to
most mills which do not have the
specialized equipment for its pro
cessing,” Regnery explained.
He pointed out that the average
mill already has heavy investment
in complicated “opening” and
cleaning machinery needed to pro
cess normally baled ^cotton. In
most cases, textile plants would'
not have floor space necessary to
install additional sts of machinery.
Other Institute members also are
alarmed over the prospect of mar
ket chaos that could result should
high density cotton be deliverable
on futures contracts, the textile
information service stated.
Change Is Re jaded
Nek York, Sept. 22.— Members
of the Ne wYork Cotton Exchange
today rejected by a vote of 179 to
114 a proposal to make high dens
ity cotton deliverable on cotton fu
tures contracts.
The members acepted another
proposed amendment to the by
laws, however—to extend the daily
trading period by one-half hour.
Beginning Monday, Sept. 29, trad
ing on the exchange will close at
stead of at 3 o’clock as at present.
3-39 p. m. (New York Time) in-
The vote on this amendment was
227 to 14.
High density cotton results when
the fiber is tightly compressed
under extra pressure into very
hard -bales. The rejected proposal
would have compelled mills which
buy cotton for future delivery y)
accept high density bales.
Since more cotton can be shipped
in limited cargo space when the
compressed bales are used, export-
man’s available fresh usable water fers favored the high density plan,
might eventually be unlimited. | However, many American tex-
Over the non-desert portions of tile manufacturers opposed it, say-
our country we have a vast yield i n g accepting cotton in such form
potential to add to our production
with supplementary irrigation. We
must feed our growing millions
mostly by vertical farming, not by
lateral expansion. That is, yields
must be pushed up rather than
acreages out. And both experi
ment and experience sho wus that
a vast frontier lies there. Clemson
is experimenting and the county
agents are demonstrating the new
facts in the field.

Fall
The cicadas are buzzing their
last tunes of summer. Soon they
will be heard no more. The night
call of the katydid and the crick
et will be silenced by the frosts of
winter. The leaves will stage a
riot of color, turn brown, and fall,
leaving bare trees to stand against
the cold winds that blow. Growth
will case from the soil, and all of
Nature will take its rest.
As these things are happening,
it’s time to bum out the cihmneys,
clean and ready stoves and fur
naces, lay in the fuel supply and
see to the fall grain acreage.

Use soap and water to clean the

White lead paint is good for
