PREVENTED
By Observing Very Simple!
Remedy With Watermelons
FIELD SANITATION
IS GOOD PRACTICE
Watermelon Crop Grows in Im
portance as Boll Weevil
Advances.
It is easily possible to prevent
fitem-end rot of watermelons in transit
by treatment at time of loading,
say specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture. Losses
in watermelon shipments from Georgia
and Florida last year were extremely
heavy, according to reports
received at the Bureau of Markets
through its inspection service. By far
the greater part of the wastage was
due to stem-rot, though the disease
is subject to control by a simple method
of stem disinfection at loading
time.
Disinfect Stems with Bluestone.
Properly applied, the treatment con

of the melon at time of loading in the
car, so that a firm green surface may
be obtained, and application of a

This should contain <> per cent bluo-|
stone as a fungicide. Such a paste;
is now available on the market. The)
treatment is not elective when mel-i
ons are loaded with dead stems, a*
the fungicide is of service only when
it forms a barrier between the freshly
cut surface of a healthy green
stem and infection from without. As
the melons are packed in the car,
have the stem ends turned outward;
while a second man or boy with a
sharp knife cuts off a portion of the
stem and with a small brush applies
a dab of paste to the fresh surface.
One man can accomplish this treatment
without interfering with the
speed of loading and can keep up
with two packers. A quart of paste,
costing only a small amount, will be
needed for each car.
This treatment, first recommended
in the four Southeastern States in
1919, was fairly well applied in
Georgia and Florida that season. At)
that time the United States Department
of Agriculture was able to maintain
agents in the field for the pur-'
pose of demonstrating the correct
method of disinfecting the stems, and
the results of the work accomplished
were very satisfactory. Last year,
however, owing to lack of appropriaYOUR

lions, it was not possible to keep Mien
in the field for ourposes of instruction
and research, with tlie result that
progress in preventing1 losses from
this disease was greatly retarded.
This year the State colleges of aggriculture
at Athens, Ga., and Gainesville,
Fla., are prepared to give advict
and assistance to the melon grow
ers in the application of the stem
treatment. As a contrast to tho many
reports recivcd last year of cars curtaining
wastage amounting in many
instances to as much as 50 and occasionally
1 JO per cent of the load, the
uepartment ot Agriculture lias on 'iiol
a series of reports obtai md in UUi)
on cars shipped from stem-en !rot
territory and treated imler Mioci
vismn of an agent in the field with
axei Hge losses of lesr than '2 per cent.
Additional Precautions.
Field sanitation is an important
practice. All rotting melons should
be collected at least once a week and
removed from the fields, after which
the carts used for hauling shnuld be
washed with a 2 per ce.it solution of
bluestone. Melons should be carefully
handled to avoid any possible ,
bruises or cutting, especially the slash
ing of fruits that often occurs when
cutting them from the vines. The
cutters munt never touch or cut into
a decayed melon. Knives may be disinfected
with a 2 per cent formaldehyde
solution.
Melons should be cut with as long
stems as possible when harvested, and
they should be loaded within
a few hours after cutting. Before
loading, the car should be thoroughly
cleaned and provided with bedding of|
dry straw. The sides of the carl
should be lined with so,no heavy pa-!
per, and care should be taken to see j
that the ventilators are opened. Attention
to details of handling, loading,
and treating melons will materially
reduce losses in transit from stem-end
rot, and it is evident to anyone famil-i
iar with conditions at the market
that these losses must bo reduced if
the farmer is to continue to have a
market for his produce.

FEAR CAUSES FAILURE.
Many a merchant has failed in I
business when it was not necessary, j
Others have taken failure as a supposed
road to success in money get
ting, only to find out that it is any* J
thing else but a money-making way.!
In the course of twenty years ex-|
perience at the bar, the history ot i
j those who failed, some with apparent j
these men still bad off as to finan-1
cial condition, and many of them
gain as things turned out, shows!
finally down and out.
It does not pay to fail. It does
pay to have the backbone and nerve
to pull the business out in the face
of the most trying circumstances; for.
in the same way we study the his-1
tory of those who have toiled early
and late, and made ends meet in some
way arid went on and they have sue- j
ceeded. Therefore experience wiil show
that it does not pay to fail in business,
although it is an easy way out
of tlie perplexing problems that will
best even the smallest operator.
The old saying is always true, to
:he effect that honesty is the best
policy. Not only in the strict sense
,)f the word honesty, but in the sense
that it is best to so act that all the
world will have to know that you arc
honest.
In many cases of failure where
creditors lose nearly all they have
I r? \ m 4 r?/l " ? - * - 1 - ~
uMcnvt-u, me midjccus were iorced mof
what the creditors might do to
to failure mainly by unfounding fea*
them. Some cannot stand it to he
dunned for money when they have
none just then to pay. They will
not treat for still another extension
or pray for some kind of a compromise.
Fear eats them by day and by
j night. Finally they can stand the
stress no longer and at once make an
assignment, or file a petition in the
court of bankruptcy. Fear i.- a good
.thing in a way. It warns a man of
(danger, lie can then take -lops to
[protect himself. Therp is a kind of
| fear, however, that leads the sub:
iect too far. Under such stress as
this kind of fear can oeate, a man
is ready to get rid of everything he
can and at once.
Time is usually what clicy need.
Some will not ask for it. They
seem to be afraid to ask it. Here
igain is where fear comes in to work
its injury. *
Perhaps it is a good, really strong
! nerve that a man needs to get him
L rhro?gh successfully.

THE HORRY HERALD, C
THK HEIGHTS.
By Klla Wheeler Wilcox.
I cried, "Dear Angel, lead me to tlu
heights
And spur me to the top."
The Angel answered, "Stop
And set they house in order; make it
fair
For absent ones who may he speeding
there;
Then we will talk of heights."
I put my house in order. "Now lead
me on!"
The Angel said, "Not yet;
Thy garden is beset
By thorns and tares; go weed it, so all
those
Who come to gaze may find the unvexed
rose;
Then we will journey on."
1 weeded well my garden. "All is
done."
The Angel shook his head.
"A beggar stands," ho said,
"Outside thy gates; till thou hast given
hood
And soothed his sorrow and supplied
his need,
i. A 1 A II ?

The beggar loft me, sinking. "Now
at last?
At last tho path is clear."
"Nay, there is one draws near
Who seeks like thee, the difficult highway.
He lacks thy courage; cheer him
through the day.
Then we will cry 'At last!'"
I helped my weaker brother. "Now
the heights,
O guide me, Angel guide!"
The presence at my side,
With radiant face, said: "Look where
we are now!"
And lo! we stood upon tho mountain's
brow?
The heights, the shining heights!

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
From Specialists' Correspondence
With Farmers
Please advise what to do about
suckers on corn.?G. R. B. Walhalla. |
I note that you say the corn was
planted rather thick on well manured
ground. Suckers usually form
badly on land that is well manured
or is rich in nitrogen. The suckers
will be of considerable value if you
want to put the corn in a silo. If
not, they will do no injury to the yield
of the corn. In fact, it always injures
the corn More than it helps it to pull
suckers. No matter for what pur
pose the corn is grown, it will pay to
leave the suckers alone. This has
been the results in numerous experiments
in different states.
I would like information in regard
lo keeping onions during the winter
months.?J. W. H. Winnsboro.
Well-matured onions may be easily
kept throughout the winter by placing1
them in slatted crates or slatted
shelves and storing them in a cool,
dry place. The trouble is usually in
keeping the onions in good condition^
during the months of July, August!
and September. If you can Iceepj
them throuirh these months there is
usually little trouble in keeping them
through the winter.
My Horse is aflVcted with the
heaves; please advise treatment.?
J. FT. A.
There is no cure for this condition,
but the symptoms can be greatly relieved
l>v feeding less hay and more
oats. Feed the hay in the evening
and sprinkle it with water. Give the
j'tretced animal one table spoonful of
Fowler's solution of arsenic with the
feed twice a day.
Can you jrive ine advice on harvesting
and curing sage??,T. J. M. Meriwether.
The best ime to harvest sage is
soon after the plant begins to bloom
or when practically all of the leaves
have reached maturity. The entire
plant may be cut and hung up to dry;
or if you do not care to destroy the
plant you may remove about onehalf
to two-thirds of the branches.
Where sage is grown in a small way
the leaves are sometimes picked by
hand while green and placed in trays
and allowed to dry in the shade. It
is better to cure the sage in the
shade, as the leaves become parched
and crumble badly when placed directly
in the sun. After the leaves
have become thoroughly dried they
may be placed in bags, packed tightly
and hung on the wall where they
will get a free circulation of air.
My Queen is laying in the super,
i How can I prevent it??M. R. H.
Pace between the brood chamber
! And the super another super having
I frames and either full sheet foundation
or one-inch starter. It rarely
happens that the queen will go
through an empty super to reoch the
brood chamber above it. Instead of
using the empty super you can place
a queer evcluder between the brood
! chamber and the super. Queen ex,cinders
may be obtained from all sup!ply
houses for either eight-frame or
Ifn-inii'.ic nives.
