The record, however, seems to go to
one Terence MaoSweeney, once Lord
Mayor of Cork, Ireland, who died as
a martyr to the cause of the Sinn Fein
after a fast of ?6 days. Scientists
believe that the length of time the
human body can exist without nourishment
depends on height, weight
and age, the heavier or taller of two
persons probably surviving, the longest.
It is also believed that a man
can survive withoub food from 40 to
75 days if ho is not exposed to colds
and avoids physical or mental labor.
Thero are records, however, of people
who have died after fasting no more
than 17 days.
Frank Wolfe, an Oklahoma farmer,
presented affidavits from his physician
that ho had fasted 50 days and
Herr Jolley, a German, earned $20,000
for himself by fasting 44 days in
a glass cage and charging admissions.

JULY FARM CALHNDAR
What to Be IKwie Thla Month w
Outlined by Clemuon College
Clemson College, July 1.?There U
no let-up for the good farmer in July
say extension specialists, giving brief
?ood farming hints for the month.
Agronomy?When field work slacks
up, haul in grain straw, leaves,
swamp grass and other litter for the
compost "heap. Sow peas, soybeans,
or velveno twampsR. .<? ahrdlushrdl
or velvet beans pow and they will
make growth to turn under for soil
building. If old corn is not so good,
it is not too late to plant more,
Horticulture?Remove all broken
and diseased limbs from fruit frdes
immediately after harvesting. Pull
sweet corn shortly before meal time;
it loses its sugar rapidly. Place
fruits and vegetables in the shade at
once after harvesting, to hold their
quality. Plant second-crop Irish potatoes,
preferably Lookout Mountain.
l>ig tulips and other bulbs, dry them
out, and plant again in late September.
Insects and Diseases?'Control tomato
insects and disease with Bordeaux-lead
arsenate spray. Remove
and burn corn plants infected with
smut. Examine banded apple trees
every ten days and destroy codling
moth larvae. Dust cotton with calcium
arsenate if boll weevil infestation
reaches tfcn per cent. Transfer
and requeen bees.
Agricultural Engineering Construct
trench silo if needed, to be
ready when silage is ripe. Repair
and construct needed, farm tidings.
Plan to install wat^r system and other
farm conveniences. Continue the
two-horso cultivator, setting sweeps
for shallow cultivation. Investigate
possibilities of small streams for irrigating
gardens and truck. Recondition
dusting machinery for poisoning
weevils.
Animal Husbandry?'See that hogs
have all green forage they will consume.
Plant soybeans for late summer
grazing ? it is not too late.
Fence fields and be ready to hog
down corn in tho glazed or dent
stage. Provide hogfs some animal
protein, such as fish .flfeaTT skimmilk,
or tankage.^-' Weaax late lambs and
get ewes bred as early as possible.
Change cattle on pastures every 3
weeks if possible. Save feed by using
permanent pastuVes while horses
and mules are not working.
Dairying?Mow pastures frequently?the
mowing machine is the best
permanent pasture implement made.
Destroy breeding places for flies, and
use skimmilk-formaldehyde (three
gallons to one pint of formaldehyde
and one pint of molasses) in shallow
pans to kill flies. As milk production
begins to fall off on pasture, supplement
with balanced grain mixture to
hold normal milk flow. Feed up to
two pounds of grain daily to growing
stock to maintain normal growth. If
producing (cream for market, keep
cream^container in barrel or tub of
cold well or spring water. If retail
milk producer with surplus at this
season, dry off all low-producing
cows that are bred for fall freshening.
Poultry?Keep mash before laying
hens as this helps to keep their bodies
cool and stimulates egg production.
Reduce feed cost by culling
hens not laying and not taking feed
away from the whole group. Keep a
grain feed befqre the pullets and
start feeding a laying mash untiltft^
birds are at least five months
old. If troubled' with roup or chicken
p?x m past years, vaccinate pullets
when two to four months old.
