OUR HOUSEHOLD
CONDUCTED BY LIZZIE O. THOMAS

I will be glad to send you some
NUNS next spring or October
would do for setting them outfit
you want them. I read your articles
with much interest in The Journal.
Have cut some out and put away
for reference. I am afraid I've
bored you terribly. l started out to
write you a note of thanks for your
helpful letter and "just see what I've
done! With very best wishes 1 am,
Sincerely,
MRS. M. J.
We have had a cold rainy season:
This is the 10th day Of June and
many farmers in this valley have
not planted corn. There are acres
and acres not yet broken and too
wet to pillow. If frost comes early
there will be many bush-..5 of SOFT
corn to be fed to hogs and stock.
I learned last fall a new wrinkle
about corn and hogs. 1t does not
take as much old corn as new tC
make them put on flesh. This place
has a good sized bunch Of pigs now
and when the September crCE OF
pigs comes the sows are supposed
| t. be in a pasture, but rain has kept
the sorghum and peas from being
planted; last years rye still Keeps
this bunch growing. The farmer
would rather have soy beans thar
| anything in that line, but there
never has been anything like soy
beans to draw rabbits. There were
two "patches," an acre in one anc
| 2 acres in the other, right at the
barn, and the rabbits literally clean
ed them up. The two acres was
replanted and a reward Of rs cents
each offered for rabbits killed there
One man, working near the place
killed seven before they decided tt
let them alone. Bush velvet beans
and whippoorwills are waiting for
chance to be planted.
In conclusion, let me assure al
who have written to me that theil
confidence is appreciated. Where

Lockjaw Attack Fatal
To Textile Worker

GREENWOOD, S. c., June 49,
Mr.. John Bowie, worker in the
weave room of the Grendel mills,
died Monday night from lockjaw,
said to have resulted from an acct
dent during the morning.
1t is said that a pulley burst and,
in an effort to save the belt, Mr..
Bowie pushed it off with a broom.
The broom became entangled and
he was hit by it.
He was not considered seriously
hurt at first, but tetanus developed
later and he was taken to the hos
pital for an operation, which proved
unsuccessful.
He was born and reared near
Donalds, and came to Greenwood re-
Gently from Chester to take posi-.
ton here. He is survived by his
wife and two daughters, both OF
whom are married, and two young
err sons. The funeral and interment

SHALL WE HAVE
ANEW STATE?

PHOEN Ariz. - Herbert
Hoover, secretary Of commerce, with
his keen grasp Of world economics,
keynoted the governments attitude
toward development of the Colorado
river when during the course of the
Colorado river commissions western
hearings he said:
"The only new hope Of relief from
the national -billion-dollar taxa
ton burden is to increase the coun-
try's wealth, by production and eco
nomicS. .
zone avenue is the development
Of national resources.
And one of Americas greatest ma
tional assets is the Colorado river.
1t would eventually contribute
81 900 100000 annually to the ma
tional wealth.
at is possible to visualize the ad-
dition of practically another state
to the United States by increment
through power"
Mr.. Hoover favors the construc-
ton of Boulder Canyon dam-great-
est dam in the World--as the first
of a series of unified projects on
, the Colorado. lie wants 10 Se9
things started.
More than any man on the com
mission he heads, Mr.. Hoover ap'
preciates the folly of delay in add
ing the new fields, homes and in
dustries which co-ordinated reclama-
ton of the Colorado river would con-
| tribute.
The purpose of the commission,
representing the seven basin states
and the federal government, is to
frame some formula for allocating
the Colorado's waters which would
| forestall and prevent impending
litigation and Interstate obstruc-
! ton.
"If each state maintains inflex-
ible rights" Mr.. Hoover said, III
will be rs years before the first
stone is laid at Boulder dam.
"And it would practically be war
| if the seven states on the river
were to rely upon the United states
supreme court for decision of rights
| in the basin.
There will be needed 10 great
dams on the Colorado before it can
be completely utilized"
Hoover insisted that whatever is
done must keep to the fore the
greatest good for the greatest num-
Der of people in the United States
| Only one witness at all the field
hearings of the commission contend
ed for power over agriculture. A
host unhesitatingly placed priority
on irrigation.
"They," said Mr.. Hoover, Struck
the keynote of American thought
Far better to have thousands OF
homes spring up in this western land
than slUms created in the midst OF
| the great open spaces"
Out of the waters of the Colora
do, properly husbanded under the
proposed scheme, could be created
One hundred and twenty-five
thousand farms on lands susceptible
of irrigation.
Six million horsepower electric en-
ergy, to be transmitted hundreds OF
miles from the power sources.
Vast development Of mines moi
now profitably worked.
Ranches for thousands Of ex-ser
vice men.
In short, the equivalent of E
wealthy new state.

Modem Maids
Modem Maxims
BY MARGUERITE MOOERS
MARSHALL


The rough diamond husband be-
came unpopular when woman dis
covered that life was too short to
spend all of it polishing him off.
Quarrelling with a lover is like
the circus performers feat of stick
ing his head in the lions mouth.
Nine times out of ten nothing hap
pens. The tenth occasion spells ca
tastrophe.
Bobbing the hair is of course no
more final than getting married, but
you're as likely to regret one move
as the other, and it takes even
longer to grow your hair than to get
divorce.
AS a critic, the man who berates
modern woman for her dress,
morals, manners-or lack of the
same-is almost as impressive a
spectacle as the dog that sbarks at
the Twentieth Century express.
When woman is afraid of her
husband he gets the discredit for
being a brute, and when he's afraid
of her the world also b1ames him
for being a fool.
Home is a vastly overestimated
spot: it's furnishing is nondescript
it's cooking inferior, its inhabitants
i'll hammered.
The female of the species, in a
vindictive mood, sometimes plans
how she can hurt most the man
she loves best. But when he just
functions automatically, he-being a
man-will Guido her finest Torque
mazda effects!

The Best Time to Plant Permanent

Inc Best Time to Plant Permanent
Pastures
E. D. P, Fitzgerald, Ga,
writes: have two acres Of low,
moist land on which was seeded
last fall a mixture of oats and
rye. 1 would now like. to seed
1t to carpet grass, Dallas and
Lesdedeza. Would you advise
sowing among the oats and rye
= and narrowing in or could the
seeding be deferred until May?
Once a stand of these grasses is
obtained can the land be sown
to fall crops without risk OF
destroying the seed?
We do not think it advisable to
attempt to seed carpet grass and
dallas grass at this season of the
year. Lespedeza can be sown after
the ground has warmed up, but by
that time the oats and rye will be
practically mature and it is doubt
ful If the Lespedeza had best not
be sown the next season, after the
carpet grass and Dallas grass have
already obtained a stand.
In seeding grasses of the charac-
ter you mention several methods of
practice may be followed. If the
land is open and can be cultivated
then prepare a seed bed. Sow the
grasses in the autumn as soon as
favorable season is obtained and as
early as you can get the work done.
Cover lightly with brush harrow
or weeder. The LespedeZa could be
sown the following spring, say
about April in your section. A light
narrowing would be of some ad-
vantage, but if this would disturb
the other grasses previously seeded
then it is best to avoid the use Of
the harrow.
I do not believe you will find it
practicable or desirable to try to
grow crops on land which you are
expecting to devote to grass. In
other words, the grasses mentioned
will not compete successfully with
other crops such as growing
cereals. These will tend to shade
out grasses Of the character indi
Gated. Lespedeza, as you know, is
primarily a summer growing le-
gume.

Your horse is undoubtedly suffer
ing from a more or less pronounced
case of Indigestion. 1t may even
have assumed a chronic form by
this time. 1t will take careful feed
ing and good management to cure
him of this trouble if it is of lolS
standing. IT has been brought aboat
primarily Que to the fact that you
are feeding an unbalanced ration.
Corn Of itself is net a suitable con-
Centrate for horses. 1t is too heat-
ing, ard it does not contain enough
mineral matter or protein. These
lefL'ts Co be largely overcome by
proceeding as follows: Take 600
pounds Of corn or corn and cob
meal and nix with 200 pounds of
oats. 100 pounds of bran, and 100
pounds cottonseed meal or clean,
bright peanut meal. 1t is desir-
able that the corn and cob meal be
made from ear corn that is free
from rot and molds. Next, provide
your horse with plenty Of clean,
bright hay which is free from dust.
This is a matter of the utmost i'm
portance. Molds have produced in
digestion. Much of the hay We
make here in the south contains
mold because it is carelessly har-
veted and cured. I think it will be
good practice in the case Of any
kind of hay which you feed to chop
it up and moisten it with some water
containing a little salt. The con.
centrated ration might then be mix
ed with the roughage ration. This
will necessitate the horses chew
ing and masticating his feed more
thoroughly. He may have acquired
the habit of boiling food. Nothing
will produce indigestion more quick
ly than the formation Of this habit
Be sure to water your horse be
fore rather than after meals. DC
not work vigorously soon after
meals. Feed about Is pounds Of the
grain mixture per day when he is
doing hard work, and not more than
8 or 10 pounds if he is Idle or doing
little work. Give as much roughage
as can be eaten up clean. Work
regularly. The observation of these
suggestions should result in the i'm
provement of his condition.

LET CURVES TAKE PLACE
OF THOSE HARD ANGLES
Exercise, Fresh Air and
Wholesome Food Will In
crease Weight and Build
You Up Generally
BY DORIS DOSCHER
Copyright, 1929

NEW YORK.-When the body is
below normal weight, it Is usually
due not only to nervousness, which
we discussed in our last lesson, but
to a certain tautness Of the muscles
that control the diaphragm, and to
the inability to assinilate the food.
If you have overcome the taut-
ness of the muscles Of the spine
through the last lesson, you can
readily realize how much benefit
is derived from the control OF the
muscles around the waist. These
muscles react on the digestive sys-
tenn. 1t is not the quantity of food
you eat, but how your body takes
care of that food, which not only
regulates your weight but to a GER
tain extent governs your health.
1 have given you for today's les
son an exercise that will give you
an opportunity to stretch and flex
the muscles around the waist line.
You, know that muscle which is not
used very much soon deteriorates'
and it is most important. if you
wish to gain in weight, to increase
those muscles that support the
ribs.
There is another object to this ex-
erclse. I want you to cultivate your
imagination so that you will feel as
if you are pulling a weight. This
gives an extra strain to the muscles.
It also slows the pace at which you
execute the movement and is very
much more beneficial for your par
ticular need.

Marked Deterioration In Many
Crops Due To Lack Of
Rain

ATLANTA, Sept. 18.-The semi

Southeast is as follows:
CORN-Late corn suffered eX-
tremely for lack Of moisture during
the early part of the period. Local
showers benefited somewhat in the
last few days.
COTTON-Picking is progressing
with extreme rapidity. Drouth has
resulted in Fastening maturity.
Picking almost completed in the eX-
IRENE southern portion, and has be-
come general as far north as Ten
nessee. Deterioration is very mark
ed especially in the north portion of
the belt. Bolt weevn unusually
active in North Carolina, but some
what checked by drouth in other
states. The Florida sea island cotton
is maturing a good bottom crop.
WHEAT AND OATS-Increased
acreage of winter grains expected.
Preparation commenced where soil
and moisture conditions permit.
TOBACCO-Harvest well advanc-
ed toward completion. Quality is
good in the old belt Of North Car
Dina, poor in the new belt of Car
DINA, and fair in Tennessee.
HAY-Large proportion of the
hay harvested. Much Of it falling
under average due to lack of mois-
ture.
PASTURE - Marked deteriora-
ton except where benefited by To-
cal showers.
PEANUTs-0utlook poor oven
