We hope the inunction brought to
prohibit the state treasurer from paying
out the extra money to members
of the general assembly holds good,
and that they will never receive it,
Their dilatory tactics should not be
paid for by the taxpayers* and The
Chronicle is glad to learn that neither
our representatives nor our senator
voted for or approved the extra pay.

Quite true, a live-at-home program
may not bring the farmer an oversupply
of money, but he will sure
knc/w where his bread and butter,
hum and eggs, molasses and pancakes
are coming from.?Yorkville

You Can't Always Tell ?
There is something wrong with the
patriotism of the man vvho meticulously
removes his hat every time the
flag goes by, und wbo goes into a
frenzy of applause every time the
campaign orator mention*., the flag,
but who studiously evades his taxes.
We would rather take our chance on
the man who pays his grocery and
subscription bill, and who gives an
) honest, return of his taxes to the
assessor than on the fellow who
jumps to his 'feet every time he hears
the tune of "America."?Clinton

A PSALM OF COTTON
Cotton, "thou art thy shepherd and
I am in want;
Thou hast caused me to feed in
a dry pasture, thou hast destroyed
my credit; thou hast led nie into
the paths of poverty, liens, lawsuits
and near nakedness;
Thou hast destroyed my soul and
my huppiness;
Thou hast caused me to go to a
banker with my hat under my arm
and mortgage the muscle and prod-uce
of my farm;
Thou hast caused me to live in a
rented house in full view of the
moon, while stars come twinkl math
rough the cracks;
Thou preparest a naked back and
an empty stomach for me in the
presence of my friends;
Thou anointest my head with ignorance,
superstition, poverty and unpaid
account*?how can I trust thee?
Thou hast kept my children out
of school, church and society, thereby
robbing them of that which is
good and noble, elevating and refining;
Thou hast caused me to go to the
barn and bring out the old fertilizer
sacks and ask my wife to make me a
shirt;
Now, behold 'as I stand amidst my
friends in my new shirt with these
inscriptions in full view; "Eighteen
?*'i' cent acid phosphate" on the
breast and 12-1-4" on the tail. ?Atlantic
Steel Company.
Breed Sows and (iills Now
Bight now is th\i proper time
breed sows and gilts in order for the
PlLr crot) to lx> ready for solo ;it tno
time, when hogs usually bring the:
highest price. If sows are bred now
the pigs will be farrowed in about
11.'? days. They will, therefore, be
about six or seven months old nexrt
March.
March and September are the two
usual price peaks in the hog (market.
These months are just ahead of the
months that the corn belt ships hogs
to the ?took yards and packing plants.
Kershaw county farmers should
breed their hogs and gilts the first
part of May and November, selling
two litters per year from each sow/
one in March and the other in September.
Be sure to use good males. If
there is not a good registered boar
in your community we will Ik- very
glad to help get one placed there.
Wry often, .several farmers or l-H
Club l?oys get together and buy a
good, outstanding boar. There are
a number of good, purebred, regi Jtercd
boars in the county for sale
by I-II Club boy-. Anyone interested
n securing a good boar can get a
h>t of boys and men basing them
for >ale by consulting the county

an inspirational address before

'"1 he ideals of the American Legion,"

ideals of America. The two are interchangeable."
Stressing somiypf the important*
functions of the legion, Mr. Llewellyn
said "one of the paramount
activities of the l>egion is the care
of disabled veterans and war widows
and orphans. The Legion has taken
a deep interest in this work since
its organization."
"Another, and one of the greatest
works outlined for the Legion, is
the leadership of youth. The youth
of today is watching us, and it is
up to us to set a noble example for
them to follow. The institution of
the Legion junior baseball league is
one. of the most ipotent agencies for
good work among American youth
that could have been established."

Mexican Bean
Beetle Control
ffx- , ,t jr
There jl no time for delay in combating
thi? year'* crop of Mexican
Bean Beetles. The beet poison to
use is magnesium arsenate mixed
with lime and used as a dust using
three parte of the magnesium arsenate
to five parts of hydra ted lime.
If magnesium arsenate cannot bo Obtained
the next best poison to use
calcium arsenate, one part calcium
arsenate to nine parts hyd rated lime.
There is less danger of burning wijfch
magnesium than with cullcium. The
liine and the poison must be thoroughly
mixed or burning may rpsult.
Be sure to get the dust on both
under ami upper sides of leaves. Apply
every ten days or two weeks after
the appearance of the beetle until
they are brought under control,
A good way to get the dust on
the under side of the leaves is for
two people to work together, the first
walking ahead and pulling the bean
bushes over gently with the back of
some tool like a rake:
Farmers who have gotten from the
county agent bulletin No. 72 on "Vegetable
Gardening" will find this information
along with other insect
control information on pages twentysix
and twenty-seven. The control of
blight on tomato may be found on
page twenty-eight.
If a spray is' desired it may bo
made by using one (1) pound of
magnesium arsenate to fifty gallons
of water or one ounce to three gallons
of water. Apply to under and
top sides of leave*. . "
For additional information on combating
insects and diseases apply at
the county agent's office, advises
Henry I). Green, the county agent.
