September is the time for vaca tions to end and the signal for children to return to school. All across the nation millions of eag er American children have return ed to the classrooms, and with them returns an additional traf fic hazard—the problem of more children on the streets and high ways.—— In the country many children will be forced to walk to and from school on the edge of main traveled highways, for lack of any other place to walk. Walking on the wrong side of the street, in dulging in “horse-play” and fail ing to look out tor on-coming traffic will present additional hazards to truck driver and mot orist alike. “Take a hint from the safe truck driver,’* Mr. Laney said. “Drive carefully in the vicinity of schools and playgrounds. En courage the children you know to respect signals and cross at cross walks. When in the country, look out for children walking along highways. And at all times stay alert for the unexpected activities of children.” “Safety Is Wo Accident” Is the motto of the National Safety and Courtesy campaign of the Motor Transportation Association of South Carolina. The professional truck drivers, the country’s safest drivers, are every day •rd through their state and national organiza tions. The average motorist can do his part in looking out for chil dren on the streets m and thereby improve the record of all motor vehicle and highways] e the rec operators.

C., was treated for a blow on the nose, the driver of the truck, Irving T. Moore of Celambia, received, no injuries serious enough to require medical attention.

Ferree. Clemson ex tension horticulturist. He says these practices go bond in band and full benefit cannot be derived from either alone. "A cover crop planted without an adequate application of proper fertilizer will not produce a suffi cient amount of growth to bo of •ay value in conserving and adding organic matter and nutrients to the soil,” be explains in the Extension Orchard Letter just released. "Like wise, fertiliser applied to peach orchards will not return full value without a cover crop, as a large percent of the nutrients would leach out due to the lack of some crop to conserve the nutrients and return them to the soil at a time when the peach trees can use them. ‘‘Growers should also 'consider the fact that the erosion existing in peach orchards is terrific," be continues. ‘‘Not only is a large percent of the.fertilixer applied tost but the beet topsoil is being wash ed away, particularly in the Pied mont. It la regrettable but a fact, that the average yield of fruit per acre on these red, eroded hills is the lowest In the state, and still owners of these orchards are in to any practice which would conserve soil and fertilizer and Improve yields.” Mb empha- For winter seeded alone, two or moire sown together. Or a mixture of small grains and legumes. IWa small (rains wuggeeted are ifp. oats and barley. Of th» throe, rye is the least desirable, and a mixture of oats and barley |i Mm moot dealt able. If rye Is uapd, it may be seeded at the rate of « pecks per acre, and If the note and barley mixture Is used, from fear to si; pecks per acre of each should be seeded, preferably the six pecks. The grain may ha seeded broad cast dr drilled In a strip 10 to 12 feet wide between the tree rows. For yie grain-legume mixture Mr. Ferree suggests Dixie wonder or Austrian winter pans with oats and bariey at the rate of SI pounds of peas and 6 to Speck. of oats and S pecks of barley per acre, oi 20 ponoda of vetch with fee same amounts of grain per acre. Rye er wheat may bo substituted in these mixtures at the rate of four pocks per acre. Havana, capital and chief port of Cuba, •* the commercial center of the west Indies.
