FRIDAY, MARCH 27, 1953 THE NEWBERRY SUN PAGE THREE men over More than six times as many men of your age will die of lung cancer this year as died in 1933. Our re search scientists still don't know why. They do know, however, that over half of those who will develop lung cancer can be saved... if they get proper treatment while the disease is still in the silent, symptomless stage. That's why we urge you to have a chest X-ray every six months no mat ter how well you may feel. For more information call us or write to “Cancer," care of your local Post Office.

Paysinger, Distributor FARMS AND FOLKS By J. M. ELEAZER Clemson Extension Information Specialist ‘BLUE TAG SEED” “Blue Tag’’ planting seeds are something rather new in South Carolina. The legislature of 1946 made this improved seed work possible for the state, and in 1947 it was set up at Clemson under a farm er governing board, with Bob Gar rison in charge. Under this able leadership, the work has progressed to the point that goodly quantities of “Certi fied Blue Tag Seed” of our most important crops are now available each season. These are farmer- produced seed that are grown un der proper supervision and from seed direct from the breeder. They are inspected in the field for pur ity and type. And they are cleaned and tested before being given the famous “Blue Tag” 'designation. And when all of that is done, the farmer can feel that he is pro tected and getting the best in those sealed and labeled “Blue Tag” sacks. Some states do not have the strict requirement that their “Certified Seed” be first year from the breeder like ours does. That means you might get seed bear ing this designation that are sev eral years from breeder. And we know from experience, that some seed can “run out” a good bit in that time. Our cotton man, Sam Williams, tells me that some out side “Certified” cotton seed of that sort are being offered in our state now. Bab Garrison tells me that our local certified seed growers had a fairly adequate supply of “Cer tified Blue Tag” cotton seed for this year. If you have any trouble locating your needs, your county agent can likely direct you to re liable supplies. And this applies to adapted strains of certified hy brid corns too. ROUND KERNELS Hybrid seed corn is high-power ed stuff that’s awful expensive to produce. But it takes so little of it per acre, it’s folly to fool with anything but the best. Breeders and experiment sta tions have found that every grain on a hybrid ear carries the same inheritance. But there are some u ’Processed at the mine to remove all impurities. SAVES WORK - BURNS LONGER TREATED FOR DUSTLESS DELIVERY •» Farmers Ice & Fuel Co. Phone 155 round grains on the ends of each ear that we have been in the habit of discarding when we got out out seed corn in the past. In the case of hybrid seed corn, these round grains are screened out, and they too are offered as seed corn. But most folks are prejudiced against them. Our ex perts tell us that this is a mis take, as the round grains are just as good for seed purposes as the flat grains. In fact, the round ones are a bit smaller, you get more of ’em, they will go further, and they cost less. To plant them properly you will need to get a soybean plate for your planter, our corn man Woodie tells me, and adjust it right for the size round grains you have. There is not enough good seed of the adapted hybrids to fill the bill this year. Therefore, folks need to know about the full values carried in the round grains that are available too. KILLING STUMPS Sprouting stumps are a pest in pastures. I asked Sam Marbut, one of our foresters, how to get rid of 'em. He said you can kill ’em with Anmate. Simply cut a V an inch across the top of the stump or gash it around on the side with an axe. Fill the cut with the Anmate crystals and cover with paper oi; something to protect from a show er that might come before they take up moisture and soak in. The material is poison, so handle ac cordingly. The Anmate can be gotten from most seed stores. IRRIGATED ALFALFA Back before the past two dry summers, they had an irrigation experiment on alfalfa at Clemson. Even that year, which was not a specially dry one at all, the irrigated alfalfa* showed a clear profit over the other of $40.05 per acre after deducting all irrigation costs. The only real dry time that sumer was in June. Then the ir rigated part produced 1.06 tons per acre, while that not irrigated made .27 of a ton per acre for the June cutting. - Irrigation is insurance- And, goodness knows, that’s what the farmer needs. For generations he has seen a goodly portion of his yield potential go up in the smoke of the blistering droughts that af flict us. LADY ASTOR HERE . . .

Eggs can be decorated by the dozen and, if they’re freshly hardboiled, eaten after wards. If the yolks and whites are blown out, they can go into a cake, an omelet, or scrambled eggs before the decorating begins. So it’s fun that’s not really expensive. For reasons probably best'*> known to hens, white eggs take more readily to dye than brown ones. Beet juice will turn out red and pink eggs, blueing creates blue ones and spinach juice produces green. Or, you can use a 10-cent package of commercial dye. With some odds and ends such as small artificial flowers, feathers, Blow out contents of the eggs by making a small hole at each end with a darning needle. Stick a small piece of tape over the ends so they won’t crack. sequins, bits of ribbon or velvet, confetti, crepe paper, pipe clean ers, and clear tape, you can create imaginative designs. To make an Easter bunny, at tach a fluffy tail of absobent cot ton to one end of the egg, using a little circlet of clear tape with the sticky side out. Shape ears from pink or blue paper and at tach them with, tape. Draw in the eyes, nose, mouth and whiskers with crayon. Sev eral of these bunnies can be set in a nest of Easter grass sprinkled with tiny artificial flowers. This can serve as a centerpiece at an Easter breakfast. A bird is just as easy to make as a rabbit. Use tape to attach small feathers for the wings and tail, then tape on a piece of folded paper for his beak. Draw in the eyes. For legs, bend short lengths of pipe cleaners under the egg and fasten them with tape. By using clear tape with the sticky side out on an egg, you can sprinkle confetti, sequins, red sugar, dried parsley or bluing granules over the egg and get col orful effects. To do this, dip tape in materia] you’re using and run it the length and width of the egg. Secure it with a piece of tape underneath. m Wmim * 1 Mllii H m " - d §tiP ^ Ip * -' v ,j i I i : :f < f:-.: / V . 1 i'' ^ <. y '•</? £ .
