Avoids Dog; Cars Wrecked
When an auto smat#wss into a mondog
there is 'little news value
8::aeheil but when a dog on a wet
highway is the cause of a bad auto
collision there is plenty of news in
that lineup.
In trying to avoid striking a dog1,
a tar driven by Mr. Roger Turner,
of Winston, Mass., swerved from its
course on the right side of the road
and into the path of a heavy auto
traveling in the opposite direction
and occupied by Mr. and Mrs. N. Van
Dei-nay, of Peterson, New Jersey. A
collision followed, resulting in serious
injuries to two persons, 'minor
injuries to others and an almost complete
destruction of the front portion
of both autos.
The accident took place four miles
North of Sumter on U. S. Route 15
about 4 o'clock yesteday afternoon

Applications Now
Being Received
Field Sui>ervisor W. 0. Parham of
the Emergency Crop and Feed Ivoan
Office at Camden states that applications
for emergency crop loans and
feed loans are now being received
by the Kershaw County Loan Committee,
with offices located at Camden.
J,n accordance with the Act of
Coiugryss authorizing .the loans, and
regulations issued by Governor \V. I.
Myers of the Farm Credit Administration,
loans will be made only to
farmers who are unable to obtain
elsewhere seed, fertilizers, supplies,
feed or the necessary credit to purchase
such items. Loans will not be
made to applicants who can obtain
credit in the amount needed from any
other source, including the production
credit association.
Any farmer who has the necessary
security should apply to the "production
credit association first. If the
association is \inable to make him a
loan in the amount needed the farmer
will receive a statement to that
effect and will be considered eligible
to apply for a loan from the emergency
fund.
The regulations provide that the
largest loan to one farmer this year
is $500 and the minimum $10, but
no loan may be made in an amount
greater than is actually needed to
cover the cash cost of purchasing
seed, fertilizers, supplies, feed, etc.
I Loans will be made for the purpose
of growing and harvesting crops, for
summer following, for purchasing
feed for livestock; but not for the
purpose of purchasing livestock or
machinery, or for the payment ot
debts or taxes..
Loans will be made only to applicants
who are cooperating with the
Production Control Program of the
Agricultural Adjustment Administration.
As in the past, the security for an
emergency crop or feed loan will consist
of a first lien on the crop financ'
ed or on the livestock to be fed. A
tenant must also give a first lien by
getting the landowner to waive his
claim in favor of the crop lien; but
the landowner is in- no way obligated
for repayment of his tenant's loan.
| Checks in payment of approved
loans will be issued by the Regional
Emergency Crop and Feed Loan Of,
fice at Memphis, Term.; and not by
the field supervisor or the loan committee.

long limb extending beyond the edge
of the precipice. Sam decided it was
time to remonstrate.
"Wildcat," he said impressively,

How Potted Plants May
Be Forced Into Bloom
Those mysterious plants, such as
the tulip, hyacinth, lily and narcissus,
which refuse so persistently to be
forced Into early bloom, are ever a
puzzl^ to the housewife who tries so
hard to reproduce natural conditions.
Hut the truth Is that natural conditions
are not usually reproduced, says
Pathfinder Magazine. When bulbs are
planted In pots and put immediately
into hot, sunny rooms they have had
no time to form the necessary root
systems. In nature's process this is
done during the early spring months
when the weather Is still fairly cold.
To imitate this spring season It is necessary
to plant the bulbs in their containers
and after watering place them
In a dark, damp roller where tho temperature
stays at about 32 to 40 degrees.
After from three to six weeks
the pots should he placed near a cellur
window where they will get some sun
before exposing them to the full glare
and heat of the living room. If there
Is no cellar oj- other similar place of
storage, in which such conditions exist,
attempts to force any of the plants
are pretty apt to fall.
How Tunnel Air la Freshened
Ih the Holland tunnel ventilating
arrangements provide that under each j
of the two roadways is a fresh air
duct, at its maximum dimensions 20
feet wide and f feet deep. Entering
this duct at the rate of about a mile
a minute the air is diverted Into an
expansion chamber. 1 he sides of which
run the whole length of the tunnel.
About 12 Inches above the surface of
the roadway Is a continuous series
of slots which allows the air to enter
the tunnel proper. The incoming air
passes Into the tubes in .saves. At
the top of each tunnel is a duct into
which the vitiated air passes, the
whole ventilating current being accelerated
by huge exhaust fans venting
through tall chimneys ir. the ventilating
buildings at each end of the
tunnel.
How Auto Power It Lott
The bureau of standards says the
amount of power lost between the engine
and the rear wheels iti an automobile
will vary considerably, depending
upon the power delivered by the
engine and the efficiencies of transmission,
universal Joints and differential
gearing. Under favorable conditions
of normal load and speed, direct drive
and warm lubricant, about 9.~> per cent
of the power delivered by the engine
will be transmitted to the rear wheels,
this overall etficiency decreasing as
load Is reduced, if lower gears are
med, or if tho lubricant In transmission
and differential is cold.
How to Clean Marble
Wash the marble thoroughly with
soda and warm water to remove grease,
then apply oxalic acid by laying a
saturated piece of white cottou cloth
upon the spots for a short time. If that
destroys the polish it can be repol*
ished with oxide of tin and water applied
with a cloth. If the stains are
#not deep, rub the surface rapidly with
oxalic acid and water, and wash it off
quickly. To give the marble a gloss,
rub with chalk wet with water.
How Long Boys Remain Jockeys
A Jockey usually weighs between 9.")
and 120 pounds. Jockeys usually start
their careers from twelve to sixteen
years of age. They serve as Jockeys
until around the age of thirty five, tlie
age when the average man begins to
gain weight. However, some have
been known to serve until fifty years
of age.
How Veneli Calmed Sea
A canvas hag was used. It was coneshaped,
with a small hole at the peak
of the cone to allow oil to drip out.
It held about five gallons, and was
suspended by a rope from the bow of
the vessel.
How Li*o Oak Crowa
The live oak is a tree cf rapid
growth. One foot to 18 inches n year Is
considered rapid growing.

An Old Custom
One of the older residents recalling
the days bofi^.e the electric light
when nearly every home, especially
those in the rural sections, had its
supply of lamplighters. Tlio.se were
narrow strips of jxaper rolled into
long tubes about the size of a pencil,
crimped at one end and fringed.
Often they were made of different
colored pai>er and those made of
new.siHipers were not infrequent. They
were used to light the kerosene lamjxs
in the honiew, the flame being obtained
from a fire in the fireplace in win!

Against Forest Fires
"Burn a pine forest any time within
the next 12 months and you are
taking bread out of children's
mouths." This startling declaration
was made by Dr. Charles H. Herty,
celebrated research chemist, who added
that just as burning forests
causes untold loss, their preservation
at this particular time would
mean tremendous profit and benefits
to humanity the world over.
In a special message. Dr. Herty,
whose feat of producing paper and
rayon from the pulp of pine trees
has attracted world attention, pointed
out the importance of reforestation.
