They have used that cut for a long time. It is all smear ed and caked up in some cases. And that makes my face look aw ful dirty. Spring Is' coming, and that’s a time to clean up a bit. I hope the papers will all run their cleaning brush over my face a few times by then. Or do you wash those cuts in gasoline or something to clean 'em? Choir Singing CONTEST/ Program EVERY SUNDAY WKDK Sunday NEWBERRY RESTOCKING QUAIL The local wildlife committee is really rebuilding its game birds In Newberry. ; Feed comes among the first things in such a program, accord ing to County Agent Ezell. The 4-H club boys have planted 26,- 000 lespedeza bicolor seedlings this winter. The soil conserva tion district supervisors have secured and distributed 60,000, and the wildlife committee has also gotten in 60,000 bicolor plants. And the setting of this birdfood plant has been going on there for some winters now. Ezell tells me that they find their birds in the vicinity of these old er plantings. The bicolor seed lings are secured from the state game department. They started out with 60 pairs of partridges three years ago. The next year they increased that to 100 pairs, which they carried on during the past season. Eggs from these are hatched in the incubator there on the game war den’s farm Where the birds are kept. He is Herman Wise, and his wife largely handles this part of the bird project. The day-old birds are furnish ed to farmers who equip them selves with a suitable brooder for raising them. And then at the proper age, they are released on the farm. The past year 3,876 young birds were furnished to. 81 farmers. With the grassland farming that is already so well on its way to Newberry, one can fore see, from this interest, a thriving game bird population once again there, where they almost became extinct a few years ago. 3:30 P.

As we change from Jfeo much row-crop to more grasland farm ing, we need fewer folks on the land. Income per acre can be kept high. We will fill In with machinery. And that will leave more dollars for the folks that are left. This trend is all to the good. Industries are coming fast to every section of the state. They are absorbing people from the land. That #111 be felt on the farms. And we will have to continue to make adjustment^. In the end, we will likely all be better off. For the farm pie won’t have to be cut into so many pieces. Grassland farming! You should see it as I do, when I ride with the county agents back through the byways, where most of the folks live. This state’s agricul ture is being made over. And by a pattern that aims at perman ence. Many of the agents are having their winter grazing tours now. To Join them will bring a revelation. a good year on the farm. BOX* ARE THAT WAY I The bW . covered . wagon show brought many wonders into our restricted world of 1902 In the Dutch Fork. : For the past two weeks I’ve been telling you about that great event. Today I want to tell you of the crowning act. We had seen the monkey put his cracker in his water to soften it, and then when it dissolved, we saw him mix it up good and drink the entire thing. We saw the slight of hand man and heard our first talking machine with great wonder and considerable misgivings. Blit as great aS they were, they didn’t touch the mov ing picture. That was saved for the last of the show. The men up front were asked to get the two lan terns down and blow them out. They had let the fire die down on purpose and the embers were covered with ashes so tl\ere would be no light In the room to mar the picture. They lit up something on the table there at the back of the room. It sputter ed and fizzed like it might ex plode. But soon it settled down to a steady purr. Then, very dramatically, the uan announced, “f-Adies and Gen tlemen, get ready for the treat of your lives.” And, with that, intense light flikered on the bed ;heet that had been tacked up at the other end of the room. Forked figures jumped across that field before the picture came. Then all of a sudden there it was a railroad leading right up to you. And to our perfect con sternation, away up the track we could see a train coming right at us! As It approached, a bit of restlessness grew in the \room. Everyone seemed to forget where he was, and to feeL that he was alone, standing there in the mid dle of the track, with that mon ster of fire and steam coming ’‘ight at him! As it got closer it seemed to come faster. Someone opened a shutter and a half dozen folks jumped out of thq window; Mo thers drew their children close to them and awaited the conse quences. Several screamed out and the show-man announced there was no danger. The film COUNTY 4-H CLUB CONDUCT MAIL BOX NAMING CAMPAIGN 'There. ,are mdny.' mail boxes throughout Newberry Coupty with no name or other Identification on them. Most people are known by their neighbors, but it would be of much value to others If more of the rural people had names on their mail boxes. Realizing these facts the 4-H club boys have launched a cam paign to encourage their families and neighbors to put names and box numbers on their mail boxes in neat legible letters and numerals. Proceeds from this county wide campaign will be used to repair and Improve the facilities of the two state 4-H club camps. Camp Long is near Aiken and Camp Bob Cooper fs near Manning. These two camps offer a weeks vacation to about 7.000 4-H club members from all over the state each- summer. Did ybu know: That your mall box should be 44 ipches high (from the bottom of the box to the top of the ground under the box. That according to the Manual of Postal Regulations: “The owner shall place his name on the box In neat black letters, about one Inch high on the side of the box that is visible to the carrier as he approaches it.’’ j Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Hendrix and their two children. Anne and Billy, were In Lexington Sunday afternoon for the funeral of Mr. Hendrix’s niece. 7 broke before the train quite got there. After a ten-minute pause to fix it. it was run again. And when the engine finally got there and looked like it was jumping right out of the screen at you, there were squeaks all dver the place, and two men fell back wards from the top of the wood box where they were sitting. Soon the lanterns were lit again. Folks rubbed their eyes to see if they had been dreaming, and wondered if they hadn’t been seeing things. Arfti the talk about that train running and spouting steam and smoke there on that sheet In our schoolhouse never ceased around there for weeks. .

He said It is when we have a lot of money and not enough stuff to spend It on. Yes, and that runs the price of the stuff up. Then the easier money won’t go around, and we are right where we were, or worse off. Farmers produce things. They have stuff for sale. And the world seems to want Just about anything we can grow. So there should be a good reward for the products of our soil, labor, and capital this year. Yes, if we can keep the costs down within rea son. Our Dr. Rochester tells us that it looks like all of the ele ments going into the cost figure on the farm will be higher too. And that just calls for wise plan ning and good management.

Instead of the flat-topped pistons used in other cars, Buick uses a turbo-top piston, like this: So the inrushing fuel whirlwinds into a com pressed ball that adds a super-urge to the downstroke of the piston.
