THE BAPfWBLL FBOPLB-flKNTHf Bk BARNWVLU SOUTH CABOUN A THURSDAY. DECEMBER t. tfST Fame of the Barnwell Ckb Market Spreads L. P. Wilson, of Ocala, Fla., Shipment of Pork SauaaRe. The fame of the Barnwell Club Market is being spread far and '■rids, according to Col. N. G. W. Walker, of Barnwell, who recently zneeived a letter from his daugh ter, Mrs. L. P. Wilson, who now lives in Ocala, Fla., requesting that Jm ship her some of the pork sau- sold on the market. Colonel Walker stated that he delighted to comply with his r’s request as he was cer- that the sausage, as well as other food products sold on the local market were of the best qaaltty available and that every precaution possible hd taken in their manufacture. Iss Elisabeth McNab, County Demonstration Agent, has ay moves in the past few which have brought the stan- of the market up on a par any market its size in the Every possible precaution has been taken to assure the cus tamers of the freshness of the food as well as the complete sanitation of the handling and preparation of it. To insure a variety and supply choice foods, various members af the market are designated on certain days to bring certain arti cles so that each market there will he a sufficiency of most of the saleable products and yet not so maeh that some of it has to be lost iff the farm women who sell their on the market. This sys- itic planning has meant much to both the buyers and the mar- heteers aa it has enabled both to be sore that there would be no loss on either side. GOOD LIVESTOCK CARE IS NEEDED IN WINTER County Agent H. G. Roylston Makes Several Worthwhile Sugges* lions to Farmers. FARM CALENDAR FOR DECEMBER GUIDANCE Attend Concert. Winter calls for good care of livestock, says County Agent H. G. Boylston, making these sugges tions for December: Animal Husbandry. 1. Graze hogs on winter fbrage —barley, oats, or rye. 2. See that the beef breeding has enough cheap roughages and cottonseed meal to prevent loss of weight. 3. Give sheep one-half pound of grain and all the hay they will eat. 4. See that all classes of livestock have shelter and bedding and pro vide extra bedding during cold snaps. 5. Repair fences during spare time. 6. Kill hogs for home use. Dairying. 1. Protect dairy cattle from di rect drafts and from rains. 2. Feed milking cows to limit of appe tite, good quality roughages pre ferably silage and legume hay. 3. Feed grain in proportion to milk produced by each cow. 4. Give dairy cattle access to pure fresh drinking water. 5. Graze cows not over two hours per day on win ter grazing. 6. Watch calves for lice. 7. Produce quality products 8. Keep rest barns well bedded for a big supply of manure. Poultry. 1. Make the poultry house free from drafts. 2. Examine the lay ing flock for lice and mites as an infestation of either will lower egg production. 3. Feed grain liber ally to keep layers in good flesh. 4. Get brooding equipment in order. Important Activities for Farmers Even in December, Says Coun ty Agent Boylston. Dance at CCC Camp.

Camp will be one of the first to open the Christmas Holiday Season with a daqce at the Recreation Hall on Friday night, December 10. The time of the dance will be from 9 P. M. to 1 A. M. The Hampton Hotfooters, the same orchestra that played for a dance at the camp in July will play again. There will be an admission charge of seventy- five cents to civilians and twenty- five cents to enrollees to defray ex pense of the orchestra. The public is invited. Even in December farmers must keep busy with important activi ties, chiefly looking towards the future, says County Agent H. G. Boylston, who lists these brief sug gestions. Agronomy 1. Weather permitting, turn heavy soils 'that have no cover crops. 2. Put cotton under cover to prevent loss of $5.00 or more per bale. 3. Clean up briars and plum thickets around edges of fields. 4. Bed down stalla and barns with leaves, pine; needles, or grain straw; the bigger the manure pile the smaller the fertilizer bill. Horticulture. 1. Prune fruit trees and hunch grapes get catalogs, and order seeds be fore seedsmen are out of desirable varieties. 3. If fruit trees have not already been set, do so this month; full or winter planting in the South is preferable to early spring planting. 4. Prepare hot beds for sowing in January. 5. Prune scuppernongs vines to Dec. 15. 6. Propagate grapes and ornamental deciduour shrubs from new cuttings. 7. Terrace all land to be planted to peaches before trees are set. Insects and Diseases. 1. Burn trash and weeds in gar dens and fields to destroy hiberna ting insects. 2. Burn orchard prunings to destroy shot-hole borers. 3. Plow under old stalks to destroy insects. 4. Burn twigs severed by girdlers. 5. Apply lime sulphur or oil emulsion dor mant sprays after trees are com pletely dormant. Agricultural Engineering. 1. Use tractors freely for belt jobs, sawing wood, feed grinding, etc. 2. Cut in cotton stalks and other material with a disc harrow. 3. Build and repair terraces now so that they may settle before the hard spring and summer rains. 4. Build or repair fences for better handling of livestock. 5. Store the cultivating machinery and grease parts that are likely to rust. 6. Purchase a few needed farm shop tools for machinery repair work during winter months. Surprise Birthday Party.

The Barnwell People-Sentinel Barnwell, South Carolina T T T T T T r r t 7 7 ❖ i T T | | I T T T T T T T T T ❖ t T 1 Berkeley, Calif.—Liquor is not the only cause of bad driving, accord ing to the department of physiology of the University of California. Among a few of the other causes, the department concludes, are hun ger. improper eating and the hyp notic influence of long, humdrum driving and road watching. According to Prof. Eric Ogden, good driving requires an even flow of blood through the brain, and this situation is affected by a lack of food and overeating. The obvious remedy for the man on the road, he insists, is to take frequent and light meals without any effort to compensate by intoxicating liquids. The fact that the driver is often compelled to gaze continuously at the white strip of road ahead while the motor drones along, also sets the stage of hypnosis, Ogden be lieves. In such circumstances, the driver may be likely to go too fast, and have difficulty in keeping on his own side of the road. Other physical conditions affect ing driving arc said to be vibra tion, muscular activity, anxiety, mental activity and fatigue as they all diminish the brain’s blood sup ply and impair the correct work-a ing of stable driving habits. In the opinion of Ogden, driving of an automobile should be as cas ual and as natural an operation as walking. The driver who finds it necessary continually to use his wits in order to avoid accidents, is more prone to run into them than one who drives instinctively. Inci dentally. Ogden is inclined to be lieve that the driver who is continu ally compelled to use his wits is likely to be more sensitive to alco hol than one who does not. Ogden believes that automobile driving courses should be incorpo rated in the high school curricu lum and that students should be subjected to a full day’s driving test to bring out any hidden men tal or physical defects that might affect their driving.
