H. Stewart, assistant agricultural engineer of the Extension Service, who is giv-; ing special attention to this work,; “Five rural electric cooperatives have been set up in the Extension Service program of rural electrifi cation in addition to the Aiken •County Cooperative, which was started some two years ago”, says Mr. Stewart. “In these five oo- pleasant world to live in or not. i been approved b£ the Rural Elec- We rather suspect that it might trification Administration in Jack a great many of the elements !

The only word which can describe such a state of human affairs is chaos. There could be no government, no common purpose, order and discipline would be gone with the winds. The only way a nation can get along with its neighbors and the people of the nation get along with each other is by a judicious mixture of reason with emotion. The greatest danger to any nation is to let the collective emotional impulses of its people run away with their reason. ✓ That is something to think about, to keen in mind in times like these. There is no question whatever that the emotional sym pathies of the American people are preponderantly with England and France against Hitler and ■Stalin. Out of that emotional tendency may come such encouragement to those who hope to profit oerson- ally, financially or politically from war, that forces may be set in motion to play upon our sympa thies and move us as a people to get into the war ourselves. Every American needs more than anything else today to bring all the power of reason to the control of thoughts and acts. For nothing is more certain than that, if we let our emotions run away with us and take a hand in the European struggle, beyond selling supplies to any buyer who can pay for them and take them away, we are heading straight for the ruin of ourselves and our children, whether the side with which we sympathize wins or loses. Purebred Herefords To Be Sold, Nov. 3 Columbia, Oct. 28.—No herd will long continue to be better than the sires used, says J. R. Hawkins, extension animal husbandman, calling attention to the sale of purebred polled Hereford stock which will be held Friday, Novem ber 3, 1:00 p. m., at the sale bam of J. W. Conder Company at Fair- wold, three miles north of Colum bia. Fifteen good polled Hereford bulls showing sufficient type and quality to head high class com mercial herds and 16 heifers suit able for the foundation of pure bred herds will be offered at this sale. Mr. Hawkins announces. Hiese animals were selected by B. O. Gammon, secretary of the American Polled Hereford Breed ers’ Association from the R. O. Harvey herd at Wicheta -Falls, Texas, and present a fine oppor tunity for herd improvement by farmers and breeders interested in beef cattle production. X “All Around The Farm” tBy D.

It seems ^odd that Mme. Cesar Ritz, widow of the man whose name is synonymous all over che world with hotel luxury and com fort, should make a study of hotels in the United^ates. But she has been here investigating American hotels and pining up new ideas for her continental establishments. Mme. Ritz is chairman of the board of management of the Paris Ritz. She has been in the hotel business all her life, her family having owned a hotel in Monte Carlo before her marriage. What she was especially inter ested in adopting for French hotels were cleansing tissue, cig arette with the breakfast tray, and the numerous kinds of hot breads and rolls on the breakfast menu. * * * A new vocation for Turkish girls is aviation, and the second rank ing woman flier of that country is Miss Naciye Toros. She is iust twenty-four, and was in this country recently visiting the World’s Fair in New York. Upon her return to her native country she became one of five women among a staff of one hun dred and fifty instructors attach- i ed to Turkkusu, the aviation school under government super vision. Miss Toros has three hundred hours of solo flying to her credit, and just before she left Turkey to come to the United States she made a goodwill tour covering 4,- 500 miles. She has made two parachute jumps. * * * Belgium has two women depu ties, two senators, six provincial councilors, two hundred and eight municipal councilors, fourteen w i j - burgomasters, twenty-six alder- build soil fertility and conserve twenty-five municipal secre- moisture in the ground for times tnri ’ anf / fortv _ onp ^nnirinal do you thrive, Tanner also Can farming suppose, unless the grows?
