Farm Family Diets
Need To Be Improved
CLEMSON, July 6.—“Many rec
ords of farm family diets in the
Piedmont section of South Caro
lina were found to provide less
than the standard amount of one
or more of the nutritive elements”,
says Miss Ada M. Moser, research
specialist in home economics of the
South Carolina Experiment Station.
This statement Miss Moser makes
! Jfh connection with her study en
titled, “Farm Family Diets in the
South Carolina Piedmont”, pub
lished as Circular 53. This circular
Is based on the study reported in
detail in Station Bulletin 300,
•'Food Consumption and Use of
-Time for Food Work Among Farm
Families in the South Carolina
Piedmont.”
**A shortage of iron was the most
frequent deficiency found in white
family diets and the deficiency
was more common in summer be
cause fewer leafy greens, less sor
ghum syrup, and less lean meat
were used than at. other seasons”,
Miss Moser points out.
For improving the nutritional
value of farm family diets Miss
Moser recommends/
1. More milk should be produced
for home consumption. A quart
per person per day is not too much.
2. Whole com meal andjor whole
wheat flour should form a good
share of the grain products used.
^ 3. Vegetables and fruits the year
round more than pay their way in
Improved nutrition.
4. A good share of the sugars
should be in the form of sorghum
(or cane) syrup, especially in low-
cost diets where eggs, lean meat,
and vegetables are not plentiful.
5. Some eggs and lean meat
should be included if possible.
6. A well planned food produc
tion program is the best way to se
cure these improvements.

Handwriting Index
To Character, S. C,
; : Professor Says
COLUMBIA, July 8.—Does hand
writing reveal character?
“To a certain extent, handwrit
ing may reveal some’traits, such as
artistic ability and manual dexter
ity in general”, says Dr. G. A.
Wauchope, professor of English
language and literature at the
University of South Carolina.
“Handwriting indicates the type
of nervous system, the ability to co
ordinate, but it is not an infallible
guide,” he continued.
“Thackeray, who was a large and
very masculine man,'wrote a small,
effeminate hand.”

The 2,000,000th
V-8 Ford
DEARBORN, Mich., June 13.—
The 2,000,000th V-8 Ford—the one
millionth Ford built in less than 12
months and approximately the 23,-
000,000th Ford ever built—was pro
duced today at ^he Rouge Plant of
the Ford Motor Company here.
Henry Ford, founder, and Edsel
Ford, president of the Ford Motor
Company, watched the final as
sembly of the historic Ford. The
car started at once on a 2,700-mile
journey to San Diego, Calif., where
it will be placed on exhibit in the
Ford Exposition at the California
Pacific International Exposition.
The completion of 1,000,000 Fords
in less than a year since the 1,-
000,000th V-8 Ford was manufac
tured June 19, 1934, recalled Mr.
Ford's prediction late last year that
the Ford Motor Company “would
build better than a million in 1935.”
The 2,000,000th V-8 Ford is the
fourth historic Ford car which has
blazed a transcontinental trail to
the Pacific Coast, each over one of
the four principal trunk highways
between the Atlantic and Pacific.
Back in 1909, a Model T Ford,
then virtually a newcomer in the
automobile field but destined to
become the most famous type of
motor car ever manufactured, dash
ed across the continent from New
York to Seattle to win the Guggen
heim trophy in a transcontinental
race ending at the Alaska-Yukon-
Pacific Exposition. Mr. Ford him
self greeted the winning Ford car
at the finish.
The next historic Ford to write
transcontinental history was the
10,000,000th Ford, another Model T
which, after it came off the final
assembly line at the Highland Park
plant in 1924, was driven from New
York to San Francisco over the
Lincoln Highway. .
The third was the 20,000,000th
Ford, a Model A. After it was
completed at the Rouge plant in
1931 it was driven to New York and
thence across the country to Los
Angeles and San Francisco.
The fourth Ford to make trans
portation history was the 1,000,-
000th V-8 Ford which was manu
factured at the Rouge plant June
19 last year and driven to Chicago
where it was placed on exhibition
at the Ford Exposition at the
World’s Fair.

My Experiences
In 4-H Club Work”
(Virginia Freeland)
When I first began attendin'^ the
4-H Club meetings in our school.. I
was in the seventh grade. My first
project was Foods No. 1, and my
agent was Mrs. Nell Stallworth.
\fter each meeting I would come
home and prepare some dish that
we had been taught to make in the
’lub. The work was so interesting
that I often wondered why it had
and is very suitable for a blue
room, because it has light colors
in it. Another picture I chose is
one of a bench, watching a little
red bird singing up in the tree.
I studied Clothing the next year,
and at the end of the school year
we had a dress revue. My dress
f hat I entered in the contest was
of blue dotted swiss with ripples
and gored skirt. I felt very proud
of that dress, even though it didn’t
win first place.
This past year we have had a new
leader in our county. Although we
miss Mrs. Banks, we feel lust as
proud of Miss Harvey, whom we
all have learned to love just in this
not been started before then. There
would be an awfully lonely feeling short time that she has been with

in me now, if it were not for club
work helping me to try to do my
best in everything that I under
take. And then, I have five per
fectly lovely short courses to re
member.
My first camp was held at Lan
der College at Greenwood. Never
will I forget the thrill that first
camp gave me! We sang club
songs, held morning watch and
vesper services—which I never
failed to attend. They were so in
spiring. That year we made tarns.
They were already cut for us and
we lined them with net. For the
next three years, we attended camp
at the same place: The last year at
Lander, we were in camp with
Saluda and Greenwood County club
girls. I had the nicest time that
year!
There were so many new people
to meet and new friends to make^.
and all the girls were just charm
ing to chum with. The rooms be
ing over crowded that year, my
agent gave me a guest room by
myself. The first afternoon after
I had arranged my room in order,
I went out and closed the door.
When I tried to get back in that
night, to my astonishment, the
doer was locked. Evidently the
spring lock on the door had fast
ened as I had closed the door. I
spent that night with my “next
door neighbors”, as Mrs. Speake,
who had the key, had already re
tired. After that experience I was
particularly careful closing the
door.
That same summer, I attended
the State Short Course at Winthrop
College. Words cannot express the
lovely things we did at Winthrop
adequately enough. All I can say
is, that I had a grand and glorious
week at Rock Hill and enjoyed ev
ery minute of my time there.
Last summer, we went to Charles
ton to the Citadel for our short
course. Mrs. Stallworth Banks in
formed me the afternoon of our
arrival that she wanted me for one
of her leaders. I had eleven girls
in my group. We had a nice time
seeing the sights of Charleston to
gether. All the girls were just as
sweet as they could be. During
our stay there we visited the Art
Gallery and Museum, the two places
I thought most interesting. Other
places of interest were the News
and Courier office, the Municipal
Pool, and the Globe Theatre. On
July 4th we went over to the Isle
of Palms, where many folks were
celebrating the occasion.
During the 4th of July, there
were some battleships anchored at
the dock. They had to come to
port to fire the shots at twelve
o’clock. We were carried to Fort
Sumter on one ship, “The Sprigg
Carroll”, where we spent an entire
afternoon on the island. We were
also taken on a tour to Fort Moul
trie where we visited Oscala’s Dun
geon. Many of us already knew
the story of the brave Indian Chief,
who was captured there under the
flag of truce, and who later died in
that dungeon. Hampton Park af
forded interest to many of the girls,
who liked to watch the animals.
Everyone was sorry when this camp
ended.
In my second year of club work,
we took Foods No. 2 for our proj
ect and we learned many useful
things about cocking, that I hadn’t
known before. Each summer I
canned the required number of
jars of fruit and vegetables in order
to complete my club work proj
ects.
Room Improvement was my next
rroject. My interest in club work
decidedly increased during this
y ar, for I like to try to make my
room neat and pretty. I made
laundry bags, curtains, pillow slips.
s>.oe bags and dresser sets for my
room, which is painted light bluo
v. ith dark brown woodwork. I had
a vanity stool made to place before
my dresser, and covered it with
cretonne. I spent much time se
lecting pictures for my room. I
finally decided to use as one of my
pictures one I had made at short
course. It is a picture of a moth
er holding her child in her arms,
us. She has shown much interest
in our club meetings and we have
already had our Achievement Day
and are looking forward to our
short course, which is to be held at
Camp Long, near Aiken, S. C.,
sometime in August. We had Mrs.
Johnson as our honor guest at Mc
Cormick on Achievement Day. She
was with us just that morning and
for lunch, as she had to attend
Achievement Day at Edgefield
that afternoon.
This year, I had again as my
project. Room, Improvement,
have completed three pairs of cur
tains and hanged them in my
room, varnished all of the furni
ture over, and enameled the bed
The looks of the room have cer
tainly been improved and I am gp-
ing to repaint it this summer.
4-H Club work has meant more
to me, a country girl, than I can
ever be able to express. It has
given to me higher ideals in life,
caused me to feel a deeper patriot
ism and love for my country and
the people who inhabit it; club
songs inspire me, club short courses
entertain me, and club work inter
ests me as does nothing else.
I sincerely hope that every per
son in this universe, and especially
our own United States, will sooner
or later come to realize as I do the
great benefit and need of continu
ing the great work that the 4-H*
clubs are doing, and raise 4-H club
work on a pedestal and to even
greater heights than have already
been attained.

Ham As Basis For
One-Dish Meals
It
i/—»
BY PATRICIA DOW
The smoky twang and full flavor
of cured ham gives it no end of
versatility when food combinations
are being sought, and, whether the
combination be one with bland
flavored vegetables or fruits of de
cidedly characteristic flavor, ham
may be used with equal advantage.
Cooking meat with vegetables,
says Inez S. Willson, home econo
mist, is good from the standpoint of
flavor. Besides it is a great help to
the housewife who has to find time
for outside activities and who can’t
afford to spend her entire time in
the kitchen cooking and washing
dishes. And very often the com
bination dish may be cooked in the
oven and need very little attention.
Ham and Potatoes en Casserole
Meat and potatoes are usually re
garded as the mainstays of every
meal, and these make a splendid
combination for the baking dish.
Place a thick ham slice in the bak
ing dish and over it slice the pota
toes. Pour milk over it, cover, and
bake until both potatoes and ham
are done.
Ham and Noodles
As an interesting substitute for
ham and potatoes, • try ham and
noodles en casserole.
Place a layer of broad cooked
noodles in a baking dish. Q«'cr it
place a layer of chopped cooked
ham, theri another layer of noodles,
and repeat until the dish is nearly
full. Pour over this 2 eggs beaten
with 1- 1-2 cups milk. Dot with
butter and bake in a moderate oven
for about 40 minutes. Serve with
a well-seasoned tomato sauce.
A crisp vegetable salad, and a
dish of fresh fruit might well com-
olete this easily prepared and *ie-
iciously appetizing meal.
Peas and carrots are always rooc’
with ham. These may be add*d tc
a potato and ham casserole, or Jiey
may make up the vegetable part o
he dish. They are especially good
for a ham pie.
Hanr Pie
Place an inch layer of well whip
oed mashed potatoes in a b^t're^
baking dish, their a half inch
r .._ r r.f chopped ?oo!ic1 ham. Cov-
"r with a layer of drained peas, o
and carrots. Cover with an
other layer of hanr and repeat un
til the dish is filled'. Pipe a border
of mashed potatoes over the top
and set in the oven to brown the
potatoes and heat tile meati andj
vegetables..
