MAKE FARM WOODLAND
PAY BETTER INCOME
Clemson. May 27.?Farm woodlands
properly treated will contribute
materially to the farm Income, says
M H Bruner, extension forester, announcing
the publication of Extension
Circular 171, Using Farm Timber
Crops for Better Income.
Proper treatment of the farm forest
consists logically of three steps,
Mr. Bruner explains: first, protection
from fire; second, thinning the
stand; third, selective cutting.
When woodlands are well managed
the thinning of stands furnishes Incidentally
fuelwood and pulpwood and
.eaves .the mature stands in better
condition for rapid development In the
production of poles, piling and sawtimber.
Circular 171 explains the value of
selective cutting, shows the Importance
of saving small trees for future
growth; tells how to cut the stand for
maximum returns, and gives Important
marketing suggestions. Copie
of the circular may be secured from
county farm agents or from the Pub
llcatlons Department at Clemson.

Juat it8 we sat clown lo rattle off
some "crusiu" comineni a loud
crash in front of the office indicated
u collision of some sort. Yes slr-e-e.
Truck driveu by u colored fellow
jammed iuto a passenger auto which
was hacking into the traffic lane.

What we cannot understand Is why
there should be any argument regarding
responsibility in a matter of this
kind. The driver of the uuto was to
blame, according to the law of the
road.
?
Speaking of safety regulations, the
thought occurs to us that it's about
time Uncle Sam stopped in with some
regulations ou federal highways.
Looks like the lame-bruins will never
get around to doing anything to curb
the evils.
*
How about a federal statute requiring
cars using federal highways
to carry inspection certificates showing
brakes, headlamps and the like to
be in perfect condition. And continuing
along the same line, why not a
federal law which will permit contiscation
of a car and imprisonment of
a driver who operates on a federal
highway while drunk. And to carry
the safety Idea still further, impose
a fifty-mile speed limit for cars ou
federal highways.
Uncle Sam has a way about him
that seems to get results. And we
believe that if federal highways had
the above regulations in force there
would be fewer Jollopies with no
brakes, no lights and bum tires in
evidence. In Virginia they put over
such a regulation on the highways
and some t>2.000 cars went to the
junk heap.
' A New York society writer is trying
to find out why gals pick out June
as the month to get married in. He
says the gals look their worst during
hot weather.
The cover page of the new Great
Lakes to Florida booklet is a fine bit J
of work. Camden is well advertised
and we are confident there will be results
next fall with a much greater
increase of motorists' from out of the
midwest. The Great Lakes to Florida
route originally went via U. S.
21 from Charlotte to Columbia, but
the Chamber of Commerce got busy,
enlisted the aid of Lancaster and Kershaw,
raised a purse, induced the
highway group to change the route
so as to take In 521 from Pinevllle to
Columbia.
Turning over the pages to the baseball
section?we are free to admit
that the Chiefs, Camden entry in the
Palmetto league, looks very good to
us. After the gang has met the ether
five teams In a home and away from
home series, we'll tell you more about
! our impressions. Looks as if Sum-:
I ter has a keg of dynamite to unload
on the other five teams?but you
never can tell.
It has been surprising the interest
the metropolitan papers have taken
in the Palmetto loop. The News Service
has received requests from all
of the big papers for a weekly summary
of league activities. So you see,
this is just another avenue for Camden
publicity, for every news story
will go out under a Camden date line,
Regarding that state semi-pro tournament
the National Semi-Pro Congress
wants to hold here next August,
we have turned the matter over to
the American Legion, and if that organization
decides to sponsor the
state meet, we will be there with bells
on to give it the publicity.
From baseball to fires is a big jump
but here we go. What we mean is,
we hope none of the readers of The
Chronicle became Imbued with the
idea that the Camden fire department
tossed too much aqua pura at the Ivy
I?dge Inn during the triple Are episode
at that old hostelry a wek ago.
Personally we feel the fire laddies
used good judgment. They did not
throw a lot of water on the first summons
but they did uncork a few gallons
on the second, which was quite
correct. And on the third, well it
needed a lot of rain to stop a blaze
that cropped out three times within
48 hours.
Getting Into the discussion on boxing?we
are reminded that Willie
Reddish, hard-hitting Camden heavyweight,
scored an eight round technical
knockout over Ous Dpraxio, a
Philadelphia heavy on May 24. Reddish
clearly was Dorazlo's master and
the referee stopped the scrap tn the
eighth when the Quaker lad was out
on hit) foot. >
?
The news that "Hod" Lynch will
wear a Hock Hill uniform this aeasou
It* somewhat of a ahock to us, as we
fully expected the red-head would be
a member of the Chiefs this season.
But we have been told that "Hod" can
pull down a real ealary by playing
for the Bleachqry team up that waj;
aud bo we just have to grin and bfcar
the disappointment. Wo conaufbr
Lynch the best high school pitcher In
the state the past several seasons.

A few jottings from Syracuse regarding
the Syracuse Chiefs. For a
starter let It be said that Tommy
Heath has gone on the suspended list
temporarily. Seems that this action
was taken to enablo Corbott to add
a few players. Moss, who was also
a backstop, has been sent to the Albany
club. So Dal Warren la now
doing the first string catching Job for
the Chiefs. Seems the handsome lad
is going good and has picked up well
In his bat work. Has two homers to
hia credit so far.
Some of the Syracuse players, writing
to friends In Camden, declare the
weather has been very cold to date
and this situation has affected both
players and fans. The latter had
wear overcoats In order not to suffer
from the chill.

Typewriters are not yet in universal
use, and the ability to write legibly

the fundamentals of a sound education.
Wilting is an art or skill
and must be acquired through Instruction

This comment is the result of an intensive

Limclic, l*1 s a supervisor here, who t
I said a garden is one of the fundament- 1
al requirements In the program of t
rural rehabilitation
The F S A borrowers have Kir- t
dens fenced to protect them from ant t
mala and which average about oU'?- i
half acre, although some are as large \
as one acre. Where apace Is avullable
for gardens la too small to motfi needs |
of the family, plans are also made for i
patches of com, potatoes and other t
i vegetables to supplement the food bud- t
'get. The minimum F. 8. A. objective
! Is live fresh vegetables all fall and <
winter and fifteen during the spring
and summer.
/Cash living costs of F. S. A. fatnl- '
,/ies are reduced not only by products I
taken directly from the gurden hut '
also by surplus vegetables and fruits '
canned. Seventy-five per cent of the -1
rehabilitation families In the county !
have pressure cookers used for homo 4
canning, or will purchase them this '
.vear, and It Is expected a total of 6,* 1
j 400 quart Jars will be bought?from 1
locai nieichants?bringing the average:up
to 336 per family, In contrast , to
' the average of 39 per family at the <
'time of comlug on the rehabilitation
program. |
In planning spring gardens thti ,
housewife and county home management
supervisor of the F. 3. A., Mrs. ;
Kva G. Irby, keep In mind what may ,
best be planted In other periods, as
a year-round garden Is a definite goal
In helping these families toward greater
security and Improved living. Many
of the families have had too little variety
in diet, with subsequent damage
to their health and the spread of dietary
diseases such as pellagra, and F.
8. A. seeks to broaden their food habits
by Inducing them to try new vego
1
tables, showing how to prepare ami 1
cook them with palatable results.
Orchards are available to few rural 1
rehabilitation fuinlltea and in order to
obtain fruit to balance their diet, ar- 1
rangomeuts are often made whereb> 1
labor or surplus vegetables may ! e (
exchanged for fruits of various kinds 1
Those living on farms under short
leases of course find It undesirable to
plant berries or other fruit requir- 1
lug over a year to roach maturity, but l
others with leases running from three
to five years are making progress <n I
this respect and further gains are e\- ]
pected If greater security of tenure is
developed in accordance with Kb S. A.
