E THROAT!
Any little soreness in the throat grows rapidly worse if
neglected. Crush some tablets of genuine Bayer Aspirin
in some water, and gargle at once. This gives you instant
relief, and reduces danger from infection. One good gargle l
and you can feel safe. If all soreness is not gone promptly, 1
repeat. There’s usually a cold with the sore throat, so
before gargling take two tablets to throw off your cold,
headache, stiffness or other cold symptoms. Bayer
Aspirin relieves neuralgia, neuritis, too. You may use it i
freely, it does not hurt the heart.

CLEMSON COLLEGE, Feb. 6.—
South Carolina farmers would do
well to return to the old-fashioned
practice of raising some mules and
horses, says O. M. Clark, extension
farm management specialist, who
states that unless breeding of work
stock picks up materially or the
mechanization of agriculture goes
much further soon, a shortage of
, work stock will be upon us within
the next few years.
Considered from a long-time
point of view, the use of tractors
and trucks for farm work will
j probably increase in importance,
j but for the immediate future there
i will probably be some decrease in
, their use, Mr. Clark believes. “But
even with a continued increase in
1 the mechanization of agriculture,
, the outlook for horses and mules is
i such that for those who are in posi
tion to do so it would probably be
desirable economically to make
plans for raising some colts. There
are many farms in South Carolina
, on which colts oould be raised with-
; out great expense,” he continues.
| “If the prices of farm products
stay low as at present it will be
difficult for most farmers to buy
j their replacements when their
I present work animals are past
their period of usefulness, and if
the prices of farm products go up
horse and mule prices will be high.
While horse and mule prices have
come down appreciably since 1929,
they have declined only about half
as much as has the average price
of all farm products. If prices of
farm products should within the
next few years go back to the 1929

HIS METHOD
Many leaders have dared to lay out ambitious programs, but Lhis
is the most daring of all:
“Go y® into all the world,’
the whole creation.” '
Jesus said, “and preach the gospel io
Consider the sublime audacity of that command. To carry Roman
civilization across the then known world had cost millions of lives and
billions in treasure. To create any sort of reception for a new idea
or product today involves a vast machinery of propaganda and ex
pense. Jesus had no funds and no machinery. His organization was
a tiny group of uneducated men, one of whom had already abandoned
the cause as hopeless, deserting to the enemy. He had come proclaim
ing a Kingdom and was to end upon a cross: yet he dared to talk his
faith in that handful of followers? By what methods had he trained
them? What had they learned from him of the secrets of influencing
men?

We speak of the law of “supply and demand,” but‘the words have
got turned around. With anything which is not a basic necessity the
supply always precedes the demand. Elias Howe invented the sewing
machine, but it nearly rusted away before American women could be
persuaded to use it. So his biographer paints a tragic picture—the man
who had done more than any other in his generation to lighten the
labor of women is forced to attend the funeral of the woman he loved
in a borrowed suit of clothes!
Nor are men less stubborn than women in opposition to the netv
idea. The typewriter had been a demonstrated success for years be
fore business men could be persuaded to buy it.
Almost every invention has had a similar battle. Said Robert Fu 1 -
ton of the Clermont:
“As I had occasion daily to pass to and from the shipyard whera
my boat was in progress, I often loitered near the groups of strangers.
The language was uniformly that of scorn, sneer or ridicule. The loud
laugh often rose at my expense; and the dull repetition of ‘Fulton’.?
Folly’. Never did a single encouraging remark, a bright hope, a warm
wish cross my path.”
That is the kind of human beings we are—wise in our own con
ceit, impervious to suggestions. Nineteen hundred years 'ago we wera
even more impenetrable.
“To the whole creation.” . . . Assuredly there was no demand for
a new religion; the world was already over-supplied. And Jesus pro
posed to send forth eleven men and expect them to substitute hU
thinking for all existing religious thought!
