Urges Farmers Study Use Of Strip Crops Spartanburg, May 23^ Every farmer in the South Carolina Piedmont haa at thin season an opportunity to see how strip crops control erosion on the demonstration and camp arena of the Soil Conservation Service. The demonstration areas are located in Spartanburg, Greenville. York, Anderson, Newberry and Lancaster counties. Alternate strips of green close-growing crops and cultivated crops plantled on the contour now present a vivid picture of this erosion control measure. Strip-cropping, according to EriiVst Carnes, state coordinator of the Soil I Conservation Service, is a form of crop rotation which minimizes sheet erosion, insures terraces against breaks, and improves the condition and fertility of the soil by furnishing a basis for crop rotation. Any close-growing or soil-binding crop that makes its maximum growth in the spring when the most Intense rainfall may result in erosion should be used for strip cropping, Mr. Carnes suggests, naming among such crops adaptable to Piedmont South Carolina the small grains, lespedeza, sorghum, sudan grass, sweet clover, soybeans, cowpeas, millet, vetch, alfalfa and sericea. STEVENS' REELECTION TO ROAD BODY FORESEEN Hock Hill, May 24.?A source here, close to state political affairs, predicted today that John T. Stevens of Kershaw. will be placed again on the State Highway commission under the new law which calls for election by the legislative delegations of the sevierjil counties composing this judicial ! district. | The source pointed out. that there I are 10 representatives aud four sen'ators in the four counties in the district and that of the total 14 only 5 ' will stand by Governor Johnston, : leaving the remainder to favor the old commission of which Mr Stevens j is a member. | Reports from all sections of Georgia j are to the effect that the planted I crops of cotton and corn are in a bad j way. with poor stands of both crops Jin all sections and farming operations are virtually at a standstill because 'of dry weather. | A man at Bradentown, Fla , threatening to jump from an eight story building, climbed down to safety af. ter he had been promised a prison I sentence of six months, the negotiations being made by a policeman 1 shouting from the ground. birds great travelers St Haul, M Inn.?Northward over sky ways that span two rontlnoius. na tire's in. pj,| navigators of the air swing on,.* more in cororful parade.

Scientists have tried to explain migration, What prompts the birds to start from South America? How does the same wren return to the same house year after year? These and countless other questions are unsolved. The migration began last month with the robins, bluebirds, blackbirds and waterfowl. These species winter principally in the Culled States Just below the frozen water line. In late April and early May came the seed-eaters?the same 30 varieties of sparrows that trek through Minnesota. The duck flight, was in full swing then. Hut the climax came in early May when the brilliant warblers, their gaud> forms glistening like jewels in the sunlight, fluttered north from points as far distant as South America. Shorebirds Join the northward tide in May. I .ate hawks ride the air currents, spiraling upward on a circular | staircase of the sky. Through Minnesota in tuid-May conies the golden plover that \ ios I with the world's record flyers. Every twelve months adults of this species i traverse an s.000 miles clips,, from the frozen arctic to the open pampas of Argentina. In early January they set out from South America. After nesting in the arctic, the old birds return, hopping off from Nova Scotia and flying 2,000 miles over the open Atlantic to the tii> of South America. The immature plovers go south as they came, through the Mississippi valley. Why? Nobody knows. Chimney swifts, birds with a tailless appearance seen commonly over city dwelling in the summer, come from no-one-knows-where. I heir winter flight has been traced to South America, but there the Jungle verdure "swallows. up" the birds for still another migration mystery. Early Summer Hints For Home Gardners Clemson. May 25.?June work in the home garden should emphasize two important features, according to the recommendations of A. E. Schilletter, extension horticulturist. These are preparations for a supply of vegetables in the lute summer and fall, and an active campaign against insects and diseases that might otherwise cut short the present supply. To be ready for the next season the specialist advises that the home gardener: Secure seed of lookout Mountain Irish potatoes for planting in July. and prepare the soil as early as possible to conserve moisture; make successive plantings of corfi?Stowell's Evergreen or Country Gentleman. beans (snap> ( bunch) ?Bountiful and Strangles* Green I'od, bean (pole)?Kentucky Wonder and McCaslan; transplant tomatoes, sweet potatoes, eggplant and pepper; make plantings of seed for later transplanting of collards?Georgia or Georgia Southern, cabbage?Succession and Gate Flat Dutch, tomatoes?New Stone, Greater Baltimore or Marglobe. To guard against loss by insects and diseases Mr. Schilletter recommends control measures as follows: Spray with six level leaspoonfulH of load arsenate in one gallon of water or Bordeaux mixture for striped eufttmber beetles; or dust with one part of calcium arsenate and twenty parts of hydra fed Bme. The same spray for tomato fruit wvfrms. but if water is used, add two teaspoonfuls of Kayso or six teaspoon fills of hydrated lime. Dust with one part of calcium, arsenate and six party of hydrated lime. Spray with 4-4-50 Bordeaux mixture to control fungus leaf spots of toina to, and late blight of Irish potatoes and tomatoes. The specialist concludes with the suggestion that Ly mulching tomatc plants with straw, leaves, or litter moisture will be conserved, resulting in a longer fruiting season. Pine May Replace Cotton In South ] I Anyone predicting, prior to a year [ago, ili,?t King Cotton would mhui be I replaced its the chief money crop of In- South, would huv e boon laughed' at One your ago tit ti oonforoiioo of scientists. Iii<lustriali>is and fanners In (H'urhorn. Mich., various new in(lustiial outlets Wore proposed fop products of the soil, th<' Object being to offset limiting production by plowing under crops or otherwise us a national policy. At that meeting Dr. Charles II Herty, research director of u savannah, (?a., laboratory, predicted that papermaklng from slash pine was destined to replace cotton as Dixieland s most profitable product 1 he doctor's prediction was received with considerable skepticism then but be was hack again at the second annual conference last week with more reports and more good proof that he was right and that this new industry already was developing rapidly tfinee last year, Dr Herty re ported, ?10.000,t?0t) had been spent oils being spent on paper mills in (ho South And mills, equipped to make pape;- out of slash pine, is all thut has been lacking to get (his Industry under way-there. Nearly all paper used in the United Stales has been coming from Canada and ^Sweden. Because of the high cost of transporting paper from across the Atlantic, ( anada has had utmost a monopoly in our paper business. It has been worth hundreds of millious annually to the Canadians. Some paper is made from wood pulp on this side of the line in Minnesota and Wisconsin, but this constitutes only a very small per cent of our needs. The slash-pine of the South will grow to a size large enough to produce wood pulp for pfiper in ten years. The growth in Canada requires twenty to thirty years. Millions of acres of cutover lands are lying idle and unproductive down South that can grow this species of pine tree in great abundance. Dr. H K. Barnard, director of the "farm chemurglc council," created by ' the Dearborn conference, which seeks I to find more outlets for farm products through the chemical industry, snys a Southern farmer could make a living with 40 acres of slash pine mere- j ly by cutting 4 acres a year. By the' time he reached the last l uc re plot j the stand of pine on the first would ; be ready to cut again. And there is growth large enough right now to be cut without waiting ten years for a first crop. Dr. Barnard reports that thousands of acres of slash-pine, marginal land, one thought worthless, is being bought up in the South in anticipation of the new paper-making industry which is threatening to topple King Cotton from his throne. So That's How It Started III 1X79 the late Melville K. Stone, founder of the Associated Cress, decided that Chicago should have a -penny paper to compete with the nickel ones. The stumbling block was that there were no pennies in circulation there. So Stone, then 2S. went to merchants to argue that | in the average person's mind 99 cents: was a much smaller sum than one dollar. He begged and pleaded and ] finally convinced them that odd prices would increase their business, and Incidentally start pennies circulating which would buy his paper. He sent to the Philadelphia mint for several barrels of pennies and became Chicago's first penny Importer. The idea took hold, his Daily News was a success and odd price bargains were born ?News-Week. J. B. ("happen of the Birmingham.

Rubson, envisaging another World War before 1950. which might bring destruction to the great aeubourd cities, advised college graduates today to plan their futures in interior America. The Massachusetts economist and statistician said in an address for delivery before Joint commencement exexercises of Hendrlx and Arkansas State Teachers' colloge.fi: "Frankly, I believe that you are to see very perilous times." "There will be no Kuropeun war this year, or perhaps for several years; but only a spiritual uwakenIng can prevent another great world war before 1960, into which the United States will necessarily be drawn," he said. "In this coming world conflict I should not be surprised to see destructions of the great dlles of our Atlantic and Pacific seacoasts. . ." Hab.son spoke on "Lesson I Have Learned from Hard Knocks." His advice to the graduates included: "Remain in the stute of Arkansas. Do not go to any seaboard city, whether it is located oti the. Atlantic or Pacific coast. Keep fairly well In the Interior of the country. "Avoid large cities. If a revolution lakes place, it will not be between capitalists and Socialists per se, but it will be between the people living in the cities and the people living in the country. If such a conflict comes, those living in small cities will have a great advantage. In such u conflict, the large cities have, not a chance. They could be starved into submission within a week." ITging acquisition of a time "with u patch of land sufficient to support yourself und family In an emergency," the learning of a profession or trade, emphasis on character und health, large families and "Interest in some church," llabson suid: "1 wish there was some way my words could be put in permanent form and stored away by you to be taken j down about the year 1960. Then you | will be wishing that you had taken j the advice of this old fogy who la j talking to you tonight." Harry P.

The storm wrecked four of the five rooms, the one in which he lay escaping undamaged. In the same state, high winds knocked the home of Robert Elmore off its foundation but didn't break an egg In a bucket containing ten dozen. Over In Georgia, VV. P. Sleigh, his wife and baby crouched against a wall in their home as the storm struck. The wall beside which they''Knelt was the only one of their home left standing. Two old cronies, William Maurer and Alexander Mahoney, aged 81 and 91, respectively, were walking about Soldiers Homo in Washington in the early morning hours. They bumped together and Maurer fractured a hip, subsequently dying from pneumonia. A coroner's vertdct read accidental death. A South Carolina night watchman In a lumber yard hid his whisky bottle under a pile of boards whon he reported for work. After dark he pulled out the bottle and took a long drink. But he got the wrong bottle, one containing poisonous soldering fluid, and died a few hours later. A small boy stood looking longingly into a candy show-case In a California grocery store. A large dog leaped playfully on the small chap knocking him through the glass into the middle of the case. Not a scratch was received from the splintered glass.?The Pathfinder.
