Because of. t he fact that 1198 of
the 1515 reported deaths from tuber
culosis in the state last year were
negroes, a proportion of more than
three to ore of negro deaths to white
deaths, the South Carolina Tubercul
osis Association and its affiliated
county organizat'ons are giving
special co-operation to the negro
leaders in a number of counties and
to various interested agencies in the
observance of Nat onal Negro Health
Week, April 1-8.
The program includes educational
talks, the showing of slides and
films, the distribution of literature,
health programs in the schools and
the holding Of clinics for the discov
ery of early cases of tuberculosis.

Community Work
By One Club
While home demonstration work is
frequently thought of in relation to
the necessary activities of the house-
holdV especially in connection with
the selection and »preparation of
food, the construction of clothing, or
methods of doing var'ous household
tasks, the woman who is a member
of a home demonstration group finds
that her interests touch practically
everything that touches those in the
home in any way. The outside of her
home comes in, for attention as well
as the inside, and she reaches out
st'll further to those commun'ty mat
ters which also affect her family.
Here are some interesting gleanings
from a report received by the United
States Department of Agriculture
from the Woodsdale home demon
stration dub, in Brunswick County,
Va.:
“We chose for our community
work the serving of a one-dish hot
lunch at the commun'ty school. Last
winter during the coldest months we
served one hot dish free to all the
little school children in our two room
school. We expect to do the same
this year.
“In August our club members
gathered at the home of a member,
each brinigng what she could from
her garden, and canned 110 quarts of
tomatoes and soup mixture to be
used to serve hot lunches this wint
er.
“Every member co-operated with
the Garden Club by planting a rose
bush by her mail box. One member
took first prize at the county fa ; r
for having made the greatest im
provement in her mail box.
“Club members are making an ef-
fore to eliminate the bill boards
along the highway by refusing to al
low them to be put on their proper
ty.
“The school was furnished with
new seats for entertainments as

The large losses to oat growers
caused by the smut diseases ’can be
4 most wholly prevented by disin
fecting the seed with formaldehyde
shortly before sowing. One pint of
formaldehyde added to 40 gallons of
water is enough to treat 40 bushels
of seed. Spr : nkle the solution on the
seed while it is being shoveled from
cRie pile to another, cover with blank
ets and leaves for at least 2 hours,
or overnight. Care to avoid freezing
cr heating is essential, and if sowing
isf delayed the seed shoifd be spread
out and dried.
IXI
Weeds in the seed wheat are a
ccmmon means of increasing the
weed crcp on farms wherever wheat
’s grown. In an investigation to de
termine the amount and kinds of
weed seeds being sown with wheat,
55 samples of seed wheat are collect
ed from as many grain drills operat-
iog on farms in the main spring-
wheat areas of Minnesota, North and
South Dakota. Only two drills were
sowing clean seed. The seed wheat
in the others contained an average
i cf 2 per cent by weight of weed seed,
indicating that an average of 53,000
weed seeds per acre were being sown
on these 53 farms. When weeds in
large numbers grow in the field with
whea^ they crowd and shade the
' crop, and use moisture and fertility
in the soil that would otherwise be
availull e for the wheat. Clean land
and pure seed will result in the pro
duction of more wheat, and it will
/bring a better price on the market.
