SUPER SOYBEAN DEVELOPED
A new soybean that yields two to
three times as much as old varieties
and is disease and storm resistant has
recently been introduced. Probably
its greatest improvement is that the
beans do not pop out before they can
be harvested, a fault that materially
reduced the yield of old varieties.
In recent years farmers have found
that disease has played havoc with
Mammoth Yellows, once the most popular
soybean. The disease cut down
the yield and caused the bean to be
mottled and dis-colored. Several
years ago a soybean plant was fohnd
in a fit-Id of Mammoth Yellows that
was not affected by the disease and
made a much heavier yield of beans
and a more upright stalk than Mammoth
Yellows. The beans from this
plant were saved, increased and tested
From this one planting a new
variety has been developed which
seem< to be far superior to any other
vari' ty for eastern Virginia and the
Car. ,it,as. The originator of this vah'ty
] w. Woods & Sons, in Richmond.
Virginia, has called it Wood's
Hll v Soybean, significant of its origin
T::. originator describes this bean
as t'niiows:
"N-ither have we introduced a new
P'an: 'hat has received such uniform
prat-.- from everyone as Wood's Yellow
Soybeans. This new variety with
!m autiful beans of a bright,
yellow color, similar to MamY?d)ows(
but half again as large,
ki'l* 'air to replace all other varieties
r- 'l. s section. It has been yielding
five to forty-five bushels per
'n( r" "M all types of soils and conditie>.v
while other varieties yielded
nr*!> a third to half this amount."
Judge I. M. MeekiiiH, of Elizabeth
City, N. C., aays:
"For thirty yearn I have grown soybeans
in a lurge way. Not until I
tried out Wood's Yellow Soybeans did
I find the success 1 was hoping for.
You induced me to purchase fifty
lAtshels of Wood's Yellow Soybeans
for seed purposes at $2.85 per bushel.
The price of tho seed seemed high
tor an experiment. However, 1 put
in fifty bushels of these beans this
season and have Juat about finished
harvesting the crop. It Is all, and
more, than any one could wish. The
yield and quality Is so far superior
to any other Mammoth Yellow beans
I have ever planted that 1 shall continue
to plant only Wood's Yellows.
The satisfactory results of this variety
of soy beans when compared to
iTokyos and other varieties leaves all
competition out of the question.
"Wood's Yellow Soybeans have a
; firm stem or stalk which supports
them against heavy winds and makes
I them easy to harvest with a combine,
j Then, too, they have overcome our
I worst trouble in this section?popping
(out if a bit delayed in harvest.
"The yield of Wood's Yellows is
phenomenal. Never before have I
! been able to get more than eighteen
to twenty bushels to the acre, and
'with the fifty bushels of Wood's Yell
lows planted by me this year, I am
'harvesting between twenty-five and
thirty bushels per acre, and my other
beans on different farms, (ordinary
Mammoth Yellows, Tokyos, etc.), are
turning from eleven to sixteen bushels
per acre. Same cultivation and
same character of soil.
"I am grateful to you for calling
to my attention Wood's Yellow Soybeans."
1 WHERE THE ANTELOPE ROAM
One-eighth of all ..the pronghorned
antelope in the world range on the
200,000-acre dude and stock ranch of
Charles J. Belden, at Pitchfork, near
Cody, Wyoming. Mr. Belden sends
us the picture reproduced on the cover
this month, which he names, "First
Call to Breakfast." These baby antelope
readily adapt themselves to feed-j
ing on cow's milk from the bottle, j
These animals differ from the true;
antelope in that they shed their horns j
each year and are therefore put In a
genus by themselves. Years ago, i
when the early trappers and explor-j
ers first forged across the Mississippi j
and started exploration of the Weati
they estimated, roughly, that about j
40,000,000 of the little animals roamed-j
the flat-land, but agriculture and rifle-1
men destroyed them unt^. at the be-,
ginning of the present century onlyi
a few were found in scattered bands j
over the West. Drastic protective j
laws were invoked and with the aid'
of certain notable cattlemen, the (
herds started to increase until now
they number 40,000( of which half are ;
found in Wyoming. They belong wholly
to the plains and foothills, havo
an abnormal curioeity, and are the
fleetest things on earth.?Our Dumb \

Lancaster Was Host
To Fifth District
With forty dot-torn present the Fifth
District Medical association meellllK
was held Wednesday at the Lancaster
Legiou Hall where a very Interesting
program was heard
Dr John C liuehanan, Jr.. of Wlnns
boro was elected as president of the
UHH0f-lat Ion with Dr McCants, of
Wlnnsboro. secretary, and Dr. Abel,
of Chester, vice president The next
meeting to be held this fall will' bo
held at Wlnnsboro
j A most interesting program was
rendered with tulks by Dr. Carl A
West, of Camden; Dr. John M. Settle,
of Croat Falls; Dr. \V B. Ward, of
.Hock Hill; Dr. John C. Buchanan, of
j Wlnnsboro; and Dr. Oren Moore, of I
, C barlotto. The address of welcome J
(was delivered by Col. H. S. Stewart
In behalf of the town of I^ancaster.
j One of the most Interesting talks
made at the meeting was on "Diagnosis
and Treatment of "Tularemia."
f by Dr. Settle, of Croat Falls, who
gave the results of his experience with
ten such cases. This disease is i-aus-l
ed by the bite of a rabbit, rat or other
animal and is sometimes raused by
Infection received while dressing such {
animal.
Of late years a number of such cas-1
es have occurred in this vicinity with
more of them being reported in the
Creat Falls area than in most places
in Lancaster county. Lancaster doctors
ostimate that about ten cases
have occurred here during the past
few years. Kev. A. K. Whitesldes,
pastor of the Unity A. R. P church
suffered this disease as the result of
a rubblt bite and ho was treated at
the Veterans Hospital at Columbia
for about six months. It Is said that
the disease is acute for about three
months and that a period of three!
months is necessary to recuperate I
from it. I
The first case of Tularemia to bo
discovered in this country was said
to have been in 1912 but in this secttlon
no cases were reported until several
years after that time,
j At this meeting Dr. W. II. Ward,
of Rock Hill, gave an interesting talk
on common anesthetics with cyclopropane
in particular discussed. Dr. J
Buchanan gave an account of some
I interesting traumatic cases which was
a record of severe wounds. Obstet-1
rlcal observations were mude by Dr.
Moore, of Charlotte, and Dr. Carl A.
West, of Camden, gave an account
of the surgical work in a small hos'
pital with especial reference to appendlcltls.
Following this program the doctors
! enjoyed a supper and then elected I

| Midway Club Held Meeting
The Midway Home Demonstration
Club held Its regular meeting Friday
afternoon, May 13, at Midway school
house, with Mrs. Sam West as hostjess.
The meeting was called to or-1
der by the president, Mrs. H. L. Hor-J
ton. Devotional was conducted by
Miss Ruby Horton and we sang "Carolina,"
and also "Tiritomba."
j Mrs. A. A. West read an interestI
ing paper on "Mother's Day." The
| secretary called the roll and read the
j minutes of the last meeting and and
they were approved. There were
! twenty-three members and four visitors
present. During the business
|hour the county library was dlscuBsed
and Mrs. T. R. Horton checked on
our monthly pictures to see that every
member had the correct amount.
The meeting was then turned over to
our county agent, Miss Fewell. First,
she gave us our last picture for the
month of may. The name of the picture
was "After a Summer Shower,"
painted by George Inness, an Amer-lean.
This picture represents the Impression
of a fleeting moment when
a storm cloud had rolled back and the
sunshine burst forth through the
meadow and its rays of light reflected
by the raindrops that makes the
[rainbow. Then she told us when the
I state short course would be. held and
also the county short course. Then
she took up our subject, "Lino and
Design In Costume." She told us
Design In Costum^." She told us what
was becoming for all figures. First,
the tall slender figure, tall broad figure,
short stout figure and short thin
figure. Then she told us different
fashions which middle age and old
age should wear that would be becoming
to them. Next Bhe said to study
the outline of desirable lines for different
types of figures. She said that
tall people could wear over-blouses,
peplums and use round or U necklines
Instead of a V neckline, and
other things to fit each type of person.*
The hints and suggestions she
gave us on the different designs In
our clo'thlng will surely be very beneficial.
She also gave Illustrations
of each type of person which was of
Interest and benefit." Then we had
with ns, Mrs. Thompson, who gave
us a talk on tuberculosis which everyone
enjoyed. We adjourned to meet
again In Jane at the home of Mra.

Bifc Ad Campaign
For Famous Beer
C. T Sloan addressed the sales i rg |
aniz&tion of ilif Marlon Coca-Cola Hot j
t H UK company at a special meeting
hold last night at the plant
Mr Sloan, who is president of the
Marion Coca-Cola Bottling lompany,,
local distributors for tho Jos Schlltz
BrewliiK Company, Milwaukee, Wis
cousin, discussed the 1938 Schlltz beer
advertising campaign In this region
"Camden bus been selected as one
of the cities which will receive an:
Intensive advertising program on
Schlltc beet1 In cobnectlon with similar
campaigns In specially chosen sections
of the country," Mr Sloan said.
"In promoting Schlltz beer here,
newspaper advertising in The Chronicle
will (ill an irfipprtant position
We believe' that newspapers are one
of the most effective mediums for toll- J
lug our message to the public. The!
wide reuder influence of The Chronicle]
should be an important factor in increasing
our volume of Schlitx busi-j
ness during the coining months.
"Camden ranks high among tho cities
of the country as a beer-drinking!
community," dnld Mr. Sloan. "For!
this reason, we feel that the new.
'Taste Schlltz Today' campaign will1
have excellent results In this city. )
"Judging from the sales of Schlltz
beer In Camden so far this year, sales
in 193S will double those of 1937,"
Mr Sloan said. He said that the demand
for Schlltz, known throughout
the world as "The Beer That Made I
Milwaukee Famous," has been unusually
high during the spring season.
Summer Legumes
As Soil Builders
Clemson, May 9.?One of the best
ways to tuke advantage of the provisions
of the Triple-A farm program
for soil building Is by planting summer
legumes, such as cowpeas, velvet
beans, soybeans and crotalarla, according
to R. W. Hamilton, state administrative
officers of the AAA in
South Carolina.
There is no reason why cowpeas,
for instance, shouldn't bo planted on
every farm, Hamilton says. Cowpeas j
are a valuable source of food during
the summer and winter months and
cowpea hay makes one of the finest
kinds of feed for livestock. In other
words, this is a crop that will help
every family increase Its food and
feed supply There are thousands of
families on farms in this state that
are not producing enough food and
feed for their home needs. 4n addition,
cowpeas and the other summer
legumes are fine soil-building crops.
While the time for planting varies
in different localities, these crops can
be planted almost any time during
the next two months.
Leaving summer legumes on the
land Is a practice for which payments
are made under the farm program.
A certain sum of money is available
for soil-building practices on each
farm. A specified performance in
connection with one of these practices
is expressed as a "unit," and
each "unit" carried out earns $1.60
yp to the farm allowance. Each acre
of a summer legume counts as one
unit; therefore, the cooperating farmer
will receive a payment of $1.50
for each acre of cowpeas he leaves
on the land. If he harvests his cowpeas
for hay he does not get a soilbuilding
payment for that practice,
but the hay will be valuable for his
livestockThe
American Southern Presbyterian
mission at Suchow, China, was
bombed by Japanese planes on May
10 and 11. No casualties are reported,
but property damage is great.
The unemployed of Cleveland. Ohio,
are threatening to go to the city hall,
and start a sitdown strike unless the
mayor and city council finds ways
and means of giving them relief.
Child Safety
During The Summer
Keep your" child's safety education
!resh in his mihd during the summer
nonths, urges Wilbur S. Smith, traffic
engineer of the 8outh Carolina {State
Highway department.
With summer Just around tho corler,
every child is going to spend
nost of his time out In the open playng.
See that his play is Bafe. I
Motor vehicle accidents, according)
:o "Accident Facts, 1937," issued by
he National Safety council, caused
18 per cent of all deaths for children
ip to 4 years old, 38 per cent of the
atalities from 5 to 14 years, and 52)
?er cent of those of young adults'
'rom 15 to 24 years.
During the first three months of J
!938t reports to the South Carolina!
State Highway department show that)
jlxteen children under the ago of 141
fears were killed when struck by auomobiles,
and twelve were injured.
Dne pedestrian between the age of 15:
ind 24 was killed, and eight injured.
Four children under the ago of 14
were injured riding bicycles which
:ame into collision with automobiles.:
is were six others between the ages
)f 15 and 24.
Exposure to accidents is twice as i
;reat to children during summer,
nonths. Parents can assume respons* J
billty for keeping the accident rate
lown by training children to avoid,
iccldent risks, and by seeing that
he child has a safe place to play. |
Six simple safety rules should be
jbserved by every child:
Do not play in the street or highway.
~ If playing such games as baseball,
do not piny too near a thoroughfare.
In the excitement of playing, you
might dash in front of an oncoming
vehicle to recover a ball.
Ride your bicycle safely. Obey traffic
rules as if you were driving a car.
Do not weave in and out of traffic.
Do not "hitch" rides.
| Do not ride on the running board
of a car. ?
If you walk on a highway, obey the
state regulation by walking against
traffic, so you can see oncoming cars.
If the child is a schol patrolman,
he should be encouraged to remember
his safety training, and to use his influence
with other children to avoid
hazards.
During recent years the safety work
of schools and various organizations
has brought about good results in the
case of child accident reduction, much
greater results than have been gained
in adult work.
Since 1928 child accident fatalities
have decreased 18 per cent, as compared
with a 91 per cent Increase in
adult deaths from motor vehicle accidents.
The decrease has been continuous,
indicating that it is a true
decrease.
In spite of this decrease, accident
statistics show that children are by
far the worst class of drivers. Seventeen
per cent of all drivers involved
in fatal accidents for the first three
months of 1938 in South Carolina
were minors.
Dr. Harvey Doak Wood, 92. one of
the oldest practicing physicians in the
United States, died Friday at his
home at Fuyetteville, N. C.
A party of five Polish airmen were
in Mexico City on Sunday, engaged
in surveying an airline from Warsaw
to South American points.
