MOVING FAST
Tomorrow is my birthday, the
57th one.
My father died 4 years younger
than that. And I thought he was
an old man! But when my crowd
gets together, we still speak of
“us boys.”
Life is sort of like a footrace.
You start of£ slow, and can hardly
remember from one birthday to
the next. But, as the finish line
gets nearer, the pace is quickened,
and you finish off.the last lap or
so in a fast flourish that seems
to just keep you hanging up new
calendars.
1 can well remember when a
* ■
new calendar lasted a long time.
And it got all fly specked and yel
lowed with age before it was time
to take it down. But now the
one it seems I hung but yesterday
still looks new, with its pages all
used up. I guess modern tech
nology and science account for
that illusion. Screens and or
ganic poisons have made flies
scarce. And papermaking has
been improved to the point that
it does not now fade and yellow
so with age.
In our day, this is a fast mov
ing world. Dollars flow. But
they won’t stay in your pocket
much. And our economist, Dr.
Rochester, tells me that the new
year will see that aggravated.
Farm costs will be up a bit, and
farm product prices dow r n a bit.
That calls for close figuring and a
little tighter operation, if you are
to have the needed dollars left.
Higher yields of crops and bet
ter handling of livestock, dairy and
poultry offer us a way out. And
there is still room in both of those
directions.
For instance, two farmers in
Greenwood irrigated some of their
corn the past summer. The ir
rigated part in one case made
12.4 times more corn per acre
than the non-irrigated part, while
the other case made 13.3 time
more! An irrigated pasture in
Richland carried a bit over 3 cows
per acre for the whole past year,
while nearby pastures were only
exercising grounds for much of the
year, And so it goes.
New yield potentials! We have
’em in better seed, better stands,
better fertilization, better conser
vation farming, and the like. And
we are beginning to clinch the
benetifs from these things with
supplementary irrigation. For the
trend that Dr. Rochester spoke of
makes it necessary.
CURING GOOD MEAT
We are now right in the very
shank of the butchering season.
Have you been able to cure good
meat? Some have. But many
haven’t. Clemson has the simple
directions which, if followed, will
give you good home cured meat.
They are contained in Extension
Bulletin 77 entitled “Pork for
Carolina Farmers.” It is free
from your county agent.
There ,are two general classes of
shrubs we plant around our homes.
One sheds its leaves in winter
and the other does not.
Either sort can be reset now,
says our man Schilletter, But
bear this in mind. Shrubs and
trees that shed their leaves in win
ter are best planted just aS^soon
after the first killing frost comes
as possible. This is for the rea
son their roots grow some in win
ter. Therefore, set early, they are
ready to go then when spring
comes.
Those that do not shed their
leaves, the evergreens, transplant
a little better out a little later in
the winter, just before new growth
starts. But they can be planted
when the others are, if that is
more convenient. Those with
large green leaves, like the holly
and magnolia, are more likely to
live and grow off faster if you
pick about half of the leaves off
when you set them out. Also do
any needed pruning or shaping
then. Those leaves evaporate
moisture from the plant. By tak
ing a lot of them off, you save
the strain on the root system that’s
been crippled by replanting. Those
that shed their leaves do not have
this drain on them when trans
planted because it is some months
before leaves come on them. And
by that time, early .set ones have
put out a lot of tiny feed roots.
For other information about
transplanting things and beautify
ing your place, ask your county
or home agent.

Yes, folks, we are mighty proud these days, for we are putting milk at your door and in the stores, also,
in our attractive new cartons. We already are noticing your response to them as indicated by the way sales
are increasing. We are glad that you like them and assure you that we do, too. Take advantage of the little
spout on the new cartons which allows you to pour milk in a steady stream, rather than have it spill all over
the sides. Much time, experiment and expense has gone into our conversion, and we sincerely hope that you
will continue to enjoy enriched fresh milk in the NEW cartons. To help you get the type milk you want in
a jiffy, may we remind you that HOMOGENIZED milk is in the ORANGE and RED carton. PASTEURIZED
milk will be found in the MAROON and GREEN carton and CHURNED BUTTERMILK is in the bright
green and red carton.
Yes, COBLE says when you reach for milk, “REACH FOR ME!”

GOOD READING
At The Library
“Our Garden Soils” by Charles
E. Kellogg gives information to
meet the needs of cultivators of
kitchen gardens, flower beds,
lawns, or other plantings about
the home. Specific, up-to-date in
formation that is useful in all
parts of the U.S.
“Testimonies” by Patrick O’
Brian is a novel peopled with ab
sorbing human beings. Both peo
ple and settings are realistically
drawn, yet the book has a poetic,
idyllic quality. It is the story of
the life of a Welsh woman, out
wardly uneventful, Inwardly, vio
lently emotional.
“The Juniper Tree” by Faith
Baldwin is a moving novel for a
wider audience than the author’s
usual following. It is the story
of one man’s victory over grief.
‘The Frontiers” by John Starch-
ey has recently been published
after a ten-year delay for security
reasons. It is an adventure both
into recent history and ideas.
“Tallulah” by Tallulah Bank-
head is the autobiography of the
tempestuous actress. In this she
gives the true facts of her life, her
lack of inhibitions and disregard
of conventions, but denies that

The
STARS
By LYN CONNELLY
U OLLYWOOD ad agencies see
^ a new trend in daytime radio
schedules now that Bob Hope has
moved into the afternoon field
on a five-a-week basis .... If Hope
should cut in on the soap opera
audience or battle On even terms
with Arthur Godfrey, then look for
a drastic shakeup on the daytime
air schedules . It goes without
saying that stars on the night shift
of radio will be moved around by
their sponsors to get away from
stiff television competition ... It
might be added here that Curt Mas
sey’s sponsor got the jump on most
of the agencies a year ago by put
ting Massey On two networks, both
in choice late afternoon times.
Dinah Shore moved into Beverly
Hills from the valley to be near
NBC-TV . Now NBC-TV has
• moved out to the valley! Doris Day
is set to do a Dinah Shore-type
TV show when her current contract
at Warners’ expires . . . CBS is
interested and attempting to close
the deal now ... If it goes through
her hubby will produce . . . Mere
dith Willson has had 16 offers of
cats since it was noted in the pub
lic prints that his favorite feline.
Fedalia, had disappeared . . . John
Baer will play Terry in the TV
series of “Terry and the Pirates.”
PLATTER CHATTER
CAPITOL:—Stan Kenton is back
with a strong record that should go
big . . . “Lonesome Train” is its
title and Stan gives it everything
. . . “Taboo” is on the flip side
. . . Johnny Standley combines with
Horace Heidt in a unique disc—
two parts of “It’s in the Book”. . .
Nice job . , . \ good contrast is
given by Merle Travis in “I’ll See
Yon in My Dreams” backed by
“Cannon BaU Rag”. . . And for
jive fans, try Ramblin' Jimmie
Dolan’s latest—“Nicotine Fits” and
“Hot Rod Mama.”
COLUMBIA:—Sammy Kaye does
a fine job on that cute little novelty,
“WaUdn* to Missouri”. . . Back has
“One for the Wonder”. . . Toni
Arden and Jan Arden combine
voices in “Where Did the Night
Go?” and “Blow Out the Candle”
. And Ken Griffin at the organ
turns out one of his best discs in
“JRosary Lane” with a vocal by
Ted Stanford . . . Reverse has “In
a Chapel by the Side of the Road.”

Lamps had to be cleaned about
once a week, or you could hardly
get any light through their smoked
chimneys. I often did that job
as a kid, as I was the youngest in
the family and my hand would get
in there to clean them out.
We used newspapers at first. A
ball of that would get the loose
soot out. Then we would wash
them with soap and water, rinse,
dry, and rub with a clean towel
until they shined. Then for a
few nights they really lit the place
up.
My wife's sister had a sad ex
perience cleaning the lamps once.
They had one of those shiny met
al-base lamps for thejr parlor. She
was cleaning it up, for her beaux
was coming that night. To test
the oil, She stuck her finger down
in it apiece and pulled it out. Not
seeing any oil on it, she forced
her finger away down in it. It
fitted so tight in that threaded
hole that it wouldn’t come out.
She got scared and started pulling.
That made it worse. And soon
the finger started swelling. Her
daddy arrived about then, as the
others were trying frantically to
help her. He tried too, but could
do no good.
Finally they had to send for
the tinner. He came with his
snipper, gouged a hole into the
base of their valued parlor lamp,
got his tin cutter in that hole,
and then cut carefully to her fin
ger. In a little while he had
freed her.
She says, “You talk about sweet
relief, that was it.”
with which she has been falsely
labelled.

A SLOW OVERHAUL of the tax
T*- laws is planned by tax ex
perts. Right now, Colin Stam, chief
of the congressional tax staff, is
going through returns on 1,100 ques
tionnaires sent to corporations and
individuals concerning the tax set
up.
. Most of the replies tend to indi
cate that tax relief is needed.
Some special problems of tax re
formers are: co-ops. investment in
come of life insurance companies,
workers’ pensions, welfare funds
and other benefits included in tax
able income.
The House Ways and Means com
mittee wants a tax revision bill
passed in 1954 and plans to start
hearings on it next year.

The State Department says that
the recent Czech purge shows that
Stalin is still mighty but that he
fears Titoism. Czech Red leaders
had bungled and let living condi
tions in their pation become worse.
Popular feeling against Commu
nism was growing. So the trials
had to be staged, with Slansky and
the other defendants as goats, to
create a diversion of attention by
the public from bad conditions.
The next U.S. secretary of state,
John Foster Dulles, plans to make
hay of satellite resentments against
Russian domination when be takes
office. The Czech purge will pro
vide him good ammunition.

Woods’ resignation as price con

The GOP, despite promises to
work for a return to the gold stand
ard, aren’t hopeful that tha return
will be realized. They are afraid
that the United States couldn’t do
it alone and believe that few other
nations would agree to a sudden
change in monetary standards.
GOP detectives have made plana
to spy out the secrets of the Demo
cratic administration when the new
administration takes over. •The
question" is: how far will they go
in their probes?
They may not be too harsh in
their investigations because the
voters might think newly-discov
ered old Democratic scandals are
new GOP scandals.
Discovery <^f more scandal In
government may rock even the
GOP boat.
Investigations take time and
money. 7 They would complicate
matters for Republican office hold
ers. Ike’s, bureaucrats won’t want
to take time off to run up to Wash
ington and do a lot of testifying.
They might have to answer some
embarrassing questions t h e m-
selves.

The Republicans will make
R.F.C. loans harder to get They
want borrowers to make more ef
fort to get money from .private
lenders. They look with suspicion
upon borrowers who rely too much
on federal help. The R.F.C. has
relaxed again since the days of
clean-up man Symington.

Consumer credit hit $23 billion
by the end of 1952. This is bother
ing the Federal ReserVfe % Board.
The board feels that retailers are
taking too big a risk encouraging
customers to go too far into debt.
Tighter money for business would
prevent retailers from being too
liberal in offering credit.
