Busbee, the Baron DeKalb achool community cannery felt the full effects of the war program of food conservation when its total capacity was taxed throughout last week. While a steady stream of produce had been pouring In since early June, it was not until the past ten days that the supply of vegetables and fruits became such that the people could make maximum ubo of the school cannery. The cannery is operated by the Baron DeKalb school with J. L. Talley, agricultural teacher, and Dorothy Ashley, home economics teacher, in charge and is conducted on a purely non-profit basis. When both containers and produce are furnished by the individual canner, there Is only a small over-head expense charge of one-half cent per glass container, or one cent per tin container. While Tuesdays and Thurs% days were originally set as canning days, the recent rush has kept it open throughout the week. PEANUT DIGGING TIME IT WAITS FOR NO MAN When peanuts get ripe, it waits for no man, says county agent W. C. McCarley, suggesting that Kershaw county peanut growers get ready for the approaching peanut digging time. Unless peanuts are harvested immediately when ripe, the nuts either shed off In the ground or sprout, the county agent declares. That means waste, and every peanut wasted helps to prolong the devasting rule of the "Axis Nuts." A peanut is ripe when the skin of the kernel is dark pink, when kernels shrink slightly from the shells, and when the inside of the hulls become dark. Placing the peanut stackpoles In the fields now during the slack period will save time later when the peanuts have to be dug in a hurry, the agent suggests. To cure No. 1 peanuts, place the nuts close to the stack pole and keep the stack flat. Wind a large handful of prae* around the top of the stack 1 to help shed water over the sides rather than through the center. Be sure to allow the vjnes to wilt before stacking. This usually requires four to six hours of strong sunlight. Campaign Itinerary Blaney, August 17, 10:00 a. m. llabou's Cross Roads, August 17, 4 p. m. Bethune, August IS, 10:30 a. w. Mt.

Reynolds was quoted as admitting his guilt and officers said, he told them Harris -"might have broken a window or two." Htnris denied he had anything to do with the deed which Sheriff R. B.

Twelve windows were smashed, broken glass and splintered frames strewing the grounds of the church. The church piano was found to be slightly battered and chairs were broken, apparently when the Intruder or Intruders used them as Improvised clubs on the windows.

Kendalls Run Wild To Trim Merchants That loud explosion that was heard between 7:30 and 8 o'clock Tuesday i evening was not an enemy bomb ^ just a blow up of the Merchants ! softball team. j After holding the Kendalls to a 12 to 2 score, the Merchants group ! proceeded to stage one of the most j spectacular aviation feats the arena has witnessed in many moons. Frankie Berry had been sailing on untroubled waters for three frames, but in the fourth he ran into the cyclone. The Kendalls, whose batting percentage has been below average all season, apparently chased the jinx and proceeded to shell Mr. Perry from the hill. Before the side was retired, 11 runs had pounded over the home station. The final Bcore found the Kendalls on the top end of an 18 to 6 count. The Millers had chalked up 17 hits, many of them for extra sacks, while the Merchants had gathered 6 blows from the brother team of Artie and Benny Robinson. Artie worked 4 innings and Penny 3. Taylor was doing the catching. Berry gaVe way to Watkins who finished the game for the Merchants with Garnett doing the catching. The Instructors, a^Diough out hit, took the Merchants^ to 1 in the afterpiece of the evening show. Feebe, who was pitching for the instructors, was nicked for 7 safeties, but kept them well spaced. Horton, for the Mechanics, gave up 6 hits, but the Instructors bunched them with errors. Chichester did the catching for the Instructors and Kelley for the Mechanics. Arthur Robinson was touched for six hits during the seven innings, two of them for extra sacks. Boykin yielded nine blows and two went for extra base clouts. Boykin gave two walks and Robinson one. Netthei1 team broke into the error column. Line score: Kendalls 4 9 0 Highs 2 6 0 Batteries: Robinson and Taylor; Boykin and Wilson.
