For comfort as well as beauty, use lotions on the vital spots such as hands, elbows, face, neck and knees. For faces which have dried out and become flaky, use a lubricating cream both morning and evening to help restore the skin’s smoothness. Use a generous amount at each time, and rmeove gently with quilted cot ton squares. Use non-drying skin .freshener to wipe away all traces of 1 cream. ,1 FARMS..... AND FOLKS By J. M.

Barbequed Turkey Our turkey business in South Car olina is a rapidly expanding one. Our growers are organized into the state turkey federation. It not only aims at better methods for growing ’em, but better methods of disposing of them and creating new demands | for this fine meat. At the recent state fair they had a telling exhibit : there in the main building. One of our Extension turkey men, J. E. Thaxton, who is stationed at I York, tells of a pioneering bit of ! work Jay Brown and Charles White- sides of York county are doing with turkeys. At present they are barbe- I cuing 16 turkeys a day and freezing them for the trade. Mr. Brown has developed a patented process • for ! barbecuing the whole turkey so as to i get a very fine product. New ma- 1 chines now being built will increase i their capacity to 100 birds a day. Charles Whitesides, who grows tur keys and also runs a large dressing to aid j equally use! A father’s threat to “cut off” his son’s inheritance; a doctor’s promise that another drunk may bring death; a wife’s threat to leave and take the children; an employer’s threat to fire him if he drinks again—all will usually fail to bring the alcoholic to sobpety. Seldom have suc*i tactics prevented the true alcoholic from taking a drink, for the simple reason •stark winter, when the woods are that he does not drink because he naked and bare, and a great stillrtess wants to—but because he has to involved in helping the alcoholic.

All you have to do is thaw it out, warm it, and it is ready I to serve, I understand. Thaxton says , it is taking well with the trade. New outlets for turkeys, outlets that make them easy for the house wife to get and serve, will help our expanding industry a lot. I haven’t eaten the York barbe cued turkey yet. But hope to soon and will tell you about it. I did eat it once at Sumter, barbecued by a local man, and it was simply deli cious. We live and learn. Yes, and have : better things to eat. Turkey, once a , Thahksgiving treat, is now becoming i an everyday meat. And why not? They are good and use feed effi ciently. Breaking Records In the past 10 years South Caro lina farmers have broken 116 crop and livestock yield and production records! These facts were assembled by Director Watkins. Some records have been broken as many as seven times. That applies to turkeys produced and purebred beef bulls in use. That means that each time we broke the old record we, of course, set a new one. And then t^e next year or so we in turn broke that, and so on. Although nothing, more exciting than a swamp rabbit was ever found | in those hard places to get, we got a thrill of adventure out of conquer ing em’ in the wintertime. Red ber ries grew on brambles there and of ten some very fine green holly full of red berries too was found. These served their purposes at Christmas time. Widow Tells Experience times in the last 10 years are, per cent of rough ginned cotton (only about 1 per cent this year), soybean production, and milk cows artifi cially bred. (Prepared by the staff of Fairview Inc., Ridgeway, S. C., A Christian Center dedicated to the rehabilita tion of alcoholics.) The alcoholic is sick, often se riously. His sickness may be of the body, it may at times be also of the mind, but it is always a sickness of the soul. Caught np in the grips ol^, terrifying forces that compel him to drink, even when he does not want to and knows drinking will bring ruin, the alcoholic may become cyn ical, hopeless, or bitter. He may be a prominent, business man, respected by his community.

But through it all'those who desire to help the alcohqlic must pray for MRS. BREWER AND PHYLLIS “Grief Caused Loss of Appe tite With Resultant Low Blood. Felt Weak, Nervous, and Rundown. Scalf’s Indian River Medicine Proved Its Wonderful Worth When I Needed Help,” Declares Mrs. Brewer. Tells of Case. In a sincere letter of praise for Scalfs Indian River Medicine Mrs. Vercie Brewer, Route 1, Corbin, Ky., writes: “My husband was kill-j ed while in the Navy in service of’ our country and our little boy, Wendell Ray, was killed while de livering newspapers. My grief was so great that naturally I couldn’t eat or digest my food properly for some time and as a result I felt weak, nervous, and rundown, and was told I had low blood. Scalfs Indian River Medicine proved a blessing to me in this time of great need, for it helped me to regain my appetite and to better digest my food. I am feeling fine now and have regained five pounds of needed weight. “After Scalfs Indian River Med icine helped me so much I decided to give it to my little daughter, Phyllis Ann, because the child had no appetite and naturally lacked weight and pep. I heartily praise Chalf’s Indian River Medicine for what it has done for both my little girl and for me. May God bless you that you may sell many, many more bottles of Scalfs Indian Riv er Medicine.” Mrs. Brewer is a sincere Chris tian mdther who loves to do church work.

Im- people on the land, our farmers are patience never helped yet in trying not doing bad at all. They are mul- i tiplying their efforts with power and ; machinery, and breaking records at every turn. As I ride with the coun- ' ty agents I see all of this. And I see their field demonstrations of the I new things and methods yet to come. With science in the saddle, our ag riculture will never stop. For our ex periment stations are ever digging into the unknowns in search of something that is better, as are our plant breeders and industrial scien tists in the agricultural field. Mules To Tractors The mule hasn’t gone from South Carolina farms yet. But he has lost a lot of ground in recent years. In 1920 we had very close to 300,000 head of work stock. Now we have just under half that. In 1920 we had about a thousand tractors on the farms of the state. Now we have about 35,000. Change, change, it is constant. One is led to wonder if the critter will eventually go entirely. I’ve rid den for many miles at a tkne through the busy* Corn Belt in June and sel dom ever saw a team at work in the fields. And I’ve ridden for endless miles through the dry-land farming areas of the Far West and I still have my first team to see working in the fields there! It is likely that the type of our fanning here will keep some of the old faithful critters with us for a long time to come yet. Boys Are That Way As kids, we reveled in the wild flowers of the, woods in the spring- time. And the hot days of summer were made merry with play down on our creek that led to the river. Fall brought its great bounty of wild things that we gathered and ate or stored as they ripened. Now that leaves but winter.
