LANDON WINS BIG
OVATION in THE EAST
Continued from page one)

the Republican nominee urged
$4,000 cheering Republicans in
this birthplace of the constitution
to take an oath" that the Liberty
Bell shall not have rung in vain
100 years ago.
The Roosevelt administration,
Landon charged, "wields the same
axe" that has destroyed old world
liberties: it has used public funds
four money"-to create 1.-THE
most sinister political machine in
our history" and it has sQuan-
dered tax money in extravaganceS
for which 1.-The little fellow" even
tually will pay.
1t was a rip-snorting type of
political rally-robust with cheers
and bright with political placards.
There were prancing banner-wav-
ing precinct workers in the aisles
and sedate dignitaries of the
party were seated on the stage.
Every seat in the banner-draped
convention hall was packed by
$50 p. m. and preliminary speak
crs kept the crowd cheering-or
booing the mention of Gov. Geo.
Earle-in between the music of a
band. James A. Farley also came
in for a hearty boo. A hcckler
who shouted for the New Deal
created a brief connection.
1t was seven minutes after he
had been introduced when the
nominee, with the aid of officials
on the stage, finally waved the
crowd into sufficient quiet to per-
nit the speech to start.
Landon got the crowd into a
roaring, enthusiastic mood when
he asked series of questions as
to "who is going to pay" for the
New Deal extravagances.
To each, he answered: 1--WE
are" And the crowd answered
with roar, ending with great
shout of 1--WE are" when he asked
who was going to put the New
Deal out of power.

In this day of uncontrolled soil
losses it's time for farmers 70
awake TO the value Of their soil.
There are several ways the farmer
may employ TO save the Soil-our
greatest natural resource.
Of all the methods of erosion
control there are none so effcc-
tive az rcforesting the steep slopes
and mountain sides that are found
in our county. The forest growth
is natures own method Of con-
trolling erosion.
These steep hillSidcS may be
reforcstcd by planting white pine,
Virginia shortleaf pines and To-
Gust on them. The seedlings may
be planted six by six feet, which
will be about 1000 trees per acre.
Tree seedlings may be purchased
from the state forester at Raleigh
ut very small cost.
The soil is not our only great
natural resource which is being
our forest and timber are
used at a very rapid rate with very
little replacement.
If the farmer only realized it,
he could make his farm forest one
of his best assets. If the forest is
properly handled, it may be made
to return 6 per cent interest on
all investments, including taxes.
A forest properly handled will

produce from one and one-hali tt
TWO cords of wood per acre cacf
How may the forest be properly
handled? BY simply doing timber
stand Improvement work. This Is
done by cutting out all of the un,
desirable species of trees ana
thinning out others that are crowd
ING each other. All dead and dis-
casCd wood should be removed IN
order to give the other trees Il
chance.
At the present time we are us
mo our timber three times rs fast
rs il is growing. How much longer
can we do this without taking some
measures of refOrcSting some OF
our poor hillsidcs and improving
the growth of our present forests?
North Carolina uses annually -four
and onc-half million cords valued
at Sl3.O0O,000. This wood cut in
eight-foot lengths and piled four
feet high and four feet wide plac-
ed end to end would reach across
the Atlantic ocean and back and
have about 100 miles to spare.
Realizing that our soil and for
CstS arc two of our greatest nat
ural resources. why not plant one
to save the other; thereby, killing
two birds with one stone. In adj
dition to this. it will protect our
water sheds and prevent our lakes
and reservoirs from sitting full Of

HEART WORM REMEDY

The comparatively new treat
ment for heart-worm infcStatior
in dogs has given good results in
most cases when used by practic'
ing veterinarians, according to q
check made recently by biologists
of the United States bureau OF
animal industry.
The treatment, which was per-
fected by biologists of the bureau
and has been used for more than
a year, consists of injections into
the blood stream of the drug
known as Fuadin. Dogs affected
with heart worms may become
greatly exhausted when hunting
and many of them die.
In checking the effectiveness of
the remedy, the bureaus study
showed that out of a total Of 1000
dogs treated by the method, more
than 90 per cent were restored to
usefulness. Blood tests of dogs
that had received treatment show.
ed that the microscopic parasite
had disappeared from the blood
stream. The remedy is therefore
considered the most practical
means of treating heart-wOrm dis,
ease in dogs.

TREE RINGS REVEAL
STORY OF WEATHER

Periods of good growing wealth
Ell have alternated with poor ones
through the last ESQ years, but
there has been no general trend
toward either dricr or a wctter
climate in the Pacific Northwest,
according to the records made by
tree rings in the forests of North
ern California and Eastern Ore
gon.
EntomologiStS of the United
States department Of agriculture
studying the relation of tree
rings to drouth cycles and bark
beetle epidemics - since 1923
have analysed thousands of meas
urementS from 1240 ponderosa
pines-centurieS old--in IL local.
ties in the northern great basin re-
gion and in the area drained by
the Columbia river.
The growth pattern of these
trees, the study shows, has been
woven by the weather, the rings
increasing in width with increased
precipitation. Ring growth has
increased or decreased also as the
discharge from the Columbia
river has risen or fallen.
The tree ring measurements
show that, in the area where the
study was made, the growth pc
Rod from 1917 to 1885 was criti-
cally subnormal because of lack
of precipitation and lowered water
tables. However. it does not
necessarily follow that dry year
in the Pacific Northwest comedies
with a dry one in the Midwest or
the East. In several previous dry
periods growth was subnormal for
a greater number of years. In
none, however. was it so far below
normal as in the last one. Growth
in l93l-the most severe year
was 80 per cent of normal.
The average ring growth from
1900 to 1919 was identical with
the general average during the
past 6 centuries, bearing out the
generally accepted theory that
climatic history repeats itself
through the ages.

Ships Many Tons
OF Package Bees
French Canadian Priest
Active in Line

MONTEGUT. La, Oct. 27.-
The Reverend Joseph Marie Coul'
ombe. 5l-year-old French-Cana
dian priest. combines the duty OF
shepherdmg his flock with that OF
keeping bees.
He conducts his parish like the
simple village priest he is, build
ing religion for the church, min
istering to the sick and needy
and in his spare time conducts one
of the largest apiarieS in LOUIS
lana.
last year Father Coulombe
shipped seven and a half tons OF
package bees to buyers. That Is
$4,000 pounds Of bees, and when
you figure the number of bees to
a pound, YOU have some idea OF
the millions he sent out to all
parts of the United States.
The business he conducts is the
Red Stick Apiary. The church has
a rule that a priest must not UNI
dcrtakc 70 buy and sell at profit.
Father Coulombe'S bee business,
he explains. is not Il business ven
ture. A priest is permitted to
profit by creating-by the paint
ing of pictures, carving, writing
or production. Father Coulmbe
produces bees.
From the profits he deducts
the small sum necessary for main
tenance of his frugal way of life.
The balance goes to aid the pow
erty-stricken and to improve the
educational and religious institu-
tons.
Fifteen years ago, Father Coul-
ombe became interested in bees.
The church recommends that
priests in secluded regions adopt
hobbies, and Father Coulombe
found his bees. He started with a
few SwarmS and they proved so
interesting, so profitable that he
began to lay in supplies, equip
ment and few Italian queen
bees.
The business has grown from
year to year. Orders now come
from all over the United States
and Canada. The apiary supplies
one of the largest mail-order
houses in the nation.
The busiest bee season begins
in April. From January until DC
tober each year, Father Coulomoe
employs five men VINO Supp0r'
themselves and their families by
their work.
From the proceeds of his bee
business. Father COulombe hopes
TO provide medical and prenatal
care for thousands of children
born annually in the backwoodS
of Louisiana, without the slightest
scientific aid.

Sweet Potatoes
Gain Ground AS
Dairy Cow Feed

FAYETTEVILLE. Ark, Oct. p.
(UP..-Sweet potatoes are a COM
mon dish on most Arkansas Ia
blcs. but feeding the roots to
dairy COWS is q new idea that Is
gaining ground.
V. /. Gregg. extension dairy
man of the University of Arkansas
College of Agriculture, explains
that the dairy COW falls off in milk
production when the grass season
ends. This is because the animal
needs fresh succulent feeds if the
maximum production is to be
maintained.
The sweet potato will supply
this lack i'm the cows diet, accord
ing TO Gregg. Experiments show
ed that sweet potatoes when fed
at the rate of two pounds Il day
for each 100 pounds of overweight
Of the COW. which is half the
amount of Silage necessary, pro-
duccd 81 pounds more milk daily
than those cows fed on Silage.
Experiments also showed that
sweet potato vines can be pastur-
ed without material injury to the
Weld of tubcrS. Cows grazed on
sweet potato vines produced lit
tie more milk than when they were
grazed on Sudan grass or soy
beans. The results of three years
experiment in grazing tests show
ed a 1873 per cent decrease in the
Weld of tubers but an increase OF
30 pounds of milk per COW pei
day over permanent pasture, anCi
a feed replacement value OF
$l4.S2 per acre.
