The Red or While
Flower
By JAMES C. EDVARD
in Vanity
Fair: "Mother Ja the name for
God on tiie lip* end hearts of lit
tle children."
An old Jewish proverb says:
“God could not be everywhere,
so lie made mothers.”
when he became a Christian
Augustine (rayed: "If * am Thy
MtiM, O God, it is because Thou
didst give me such a mother”
Just before Admiral Dewey’s
squadron went into action
against the enemy 4n Manila
Bay, a sailor asked permission
to Jump overboard to get his
coat which dropped into the sea.
When his request was refused he
dived into the water anyway
When he climbed aboard with his
recovered coat he was arrested.
Asked by the admiral why he
had deliberately disobeyed or
ders, the young American re
plied, "In the pocket was toy
"mother's picture.” Admiral Dew
ey then ordered the sailor to be
released.
Abraham Lincoln said, “All
that 1 am or hope to /be, I owe
to my angel mother.”
Areaident Theodore Rooeevelt
declared, ’Tib state is greater
than its mothers.”
On Mother's Day our nation
pauses to honor the beauty and
the glory of motherhood. The
red flower is a symbol of affec
tion for the living, a token of
grateful appreciation of the
mother's rich love so abundantly
blessing her home.
The white flower wom on this
hallowed day is a tribute to the
mother who has passed into the
Great Beyond but who still lives
in hearts Of grateful love.
PLAN MENUS AROUND MEAT
Planning menus around the
meat dish is the easiest way be
cause meat has appetite appeal,
goes with many other foods, has
high nutritional value and is sat
isfying.
TOSSED SALAD
Few food habits could be of
more value to health than that of
taking a tossed green salad with
each dinner as do the FVench and
Italians.
48 per cent and protein of the
seed is 38 per cent The crop
can be combined with standard
equipment without exceed vs
loss of seed.
In addition to the South Caro
lina Experiment Station, four
other agricultural agencies have
been engaged cooperatively in
the steams breeding program,
and have contributed greatly to
ward the development of the
Pahnetto variety. They include
the National Cottonseed Prod
ucts Asmciation, Rio Farms, Inc.,
Edoouch, Texas, U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, and the
Texas Agricultural Experiment
Station. The Texas station has
recently released the second new
non-shattering variety, Rio, to
fanners in the Southwestern
states.
Limited amounts of registered
seed of the Palmetto variety will
be available to interested farm,
ers of the Southeast at the Clem-
son Foundation Seed Certifica
tion Department after April 1&.
Due to the limited amount of
seed, orders should be submitted
to the Foundation Seed Depart
ment immediately.

New Palmetto Sesame Opens Door To
Possible New Southern Cash Crop
Clemaon, May 1 — Palmetto,
a new non.Niattering sesame va
riety, has been developed and
released by the South Carolina
Agricultural Experiment Station,
according to an announcement
by Dr. O. B. Garrison, director
of the station.
The new variety represents
many years of constant research
by J. A Martin and J. H. Craw
ford, associate and assistant hor
ticulturist, respectively, at the
Clemaon station, and other agri
cultural workers in Texas and
South America. *
The interest in .sesame has
been inspired by the fact that a
new oilseed crop is needed as a
supplement for cotton seed in the
crushing operations of cotton oil
mills throughout the South. In
addition, many tons of the seed
are used annually in making
candy, cookies, and bread. Se
same can also be a valuable live
stock feed. After the oil is press
ed from the seed the resulting
cake or meal makes an excellent
high protein livestock feed. An
other important fact concerning
sesame is that the oil and seed
will keep for several years with
out becoming rancid.
With the development of the
new non-shattering Palmetto va
riety, the once ancient oilseed
crop shows promise for die first
time of opening up a new source
of iooome for our cotton belt
farmers.
Why hasn’t the crop been
grown extensively before? Al
though the first sesame seed
were introduced in America dur
ing the 17th century at Charles.
ton, South Carolina, die crop has
always been unprofitable be
cause harvesting had to be done
by band and labor costs were
high. Uneven ripening of the
seed and their habit of shatter
ing prevented production of the

The South Carolina Agricultu
ral Experiment Station became
interested in the crop and its
possibilities in IMS. The re
search man they selected for the
Job of unlocking the secret to
a new non-shattering variety
was J. A Martin, who has been
with the Clemaon Horticulture
Department since his graduation
from Clemson in IfiM. Today
Martin is probably one of the
best informed people on the sub
ject of sesame in the United
States.
Since IMS he and his associ
ates have been working toward
the development of a new vari
ety of this ancient crop which
is now very much in our future.
Today, after 12 years of research,
the new non-shattering variety
which ripens uniformly and can
be harvested mechanically is
ready for release.
The new variety was develop
ed from several promising non
shattering varieties contributed
to Martin by Dr. D. G. La ogham
of Maracay, Venezuela. Anoth.
ear important factor in the de
velopment of Palmetto was Dr.
Langham’s suggestion that the
multiple cross method of plant
breeding be used in the sesame
program. Martin’s decision to
concentrate on this method prov
ed sound. It produced a large
number of strains and varieties
from which the new Palmetto
variety was selected.
The yield of Palmetto ranges
from 300 to 1,000 pounds of clean
seed per acre depending upon
the location and weather condit
ions. The new variety has
drouht, root knot nematode, and
wilt resistance, but is susceptible t
to Bacterial, Altenaria, and Cer-
cospora leaf diseases which are
controlled satisfactorily by the
use of disease-free seed and seed
treatments. The seed color is
tan. Oil content runs around
