TB Deaths Are
Increasing In
These War Times

An increase in the tuberculosis
death rate in 81 states during the
past year may portend a general
wartime rise in the incidence OF
this disease unless every effort is
made now to control it, DR.. Felix
j. Underwood of the state board
of health warned.
1--WE have been able to avoid the
threatened wartime rise in tuber-
culosis in Mississippi and some
other Southern states up to now
DR.. Underwood said and added:
But we must recognize this
scourge as a most serious problem
and continue to urge intensified
ton of the campaign against it. II
is particularly important right now
to expand as much as possible the
good work being done by the Tu-
berculosis Association. l hope ev-
erybody will help these volunteer
workers by the liberal purchase OF
Christmas Seals. The value OF
their case finding, educational and
other programs, financed solely by
these cheerful little Christmas
stickers, is beyond estimate"

wise the rows. This eliminated the
grass and weeds and covered the
nuts slightly deeper. Subsequent
civilizations consisted of running a
small heel sweep, set as flat as
possible, between the rows of pea
nuts. Climatic conditions were ia
vorable for good growth.
On August /, 1943, six hogs (Po
land China, Duroc Jersey cross
averaging 176 pounds each, were
turned on the peanuts for 6-weel
period. In addition to the peanut
they received 100 pounds of SO per
cent protein feed. At the end O.
the 6-week period, the hogs av-
eraged 240 pounds each, or a ne
gain of "a pounds each. This was
the equivalent of 480 pounds OF
meat per acre from the peanuts.
During 1914 the test was con-
tinued under the same conditions
so far as possible. Because of dry
weather Immediately following
planting, only about two-thirds Of
stand of peanuts was secured
Continued dry weather prevented
the nuts from filling out as well
as they did in 1943.
On August /, 1914, five Duroo
Jersey pigs, averaging 80 pounds
each, were turned on the peanuts
for a 4-week period At the end Of
4-weeks they showed a net gain Of
40 pounds each or the equivalent
of $50 pounds of meat per acre.

Use Peanut Crop
ToProduce Low
ostPorkCrop

One way to produce pork econo-
mically in most sections of Mis-
sissippi is to let the pigs harvest
a peanut crop. By doing so, the
South Mississippi branch expert
ment station at Poplarville has av-
eraged 365 pounds liveweight OF
pigs per acre during the years 1943
and 1914, thereby securing a gross
return of over $50 per acre.
The results are reported in No
vember's Mississippi Farm Re-
search by 7. E. Ashley, superin-
tendent of the South Mississippi
branch station, who stated that the
project will be continued for 8
number of years to secure definite
information on the feeding value OF
peanuts expressed in terms of pork
produced per acre.
In preparation for the test g
fenced area containing eight-tenths
of an acre was prepared and plant
ed to the Spanish variety of pea
nuts. The land was broken level
and 500 pounds of 4-8-4 fertilizer
per acre was distributed in the
drill before planting. The peanuts
were planted in early May in rows
"a inches apart, and about II inches
apart in the row.
After the peanuts had terminated
and the plants were showing through
the ground, they were cultivated
with section harrow going cross

prospective husband very directly
just what kind of wife he thought
he wanted Compliments about my
big brown eyes would not get me off
the subject either"
Three essential abilities are de-
sirable in wife in order to heighten
her chances of marital happiness,
according to Mrs. Dixon who lists
them as homemaking ability, COM
petent sex knowledge, and BUSH
ness training that will enable her
to earn her own money if necessary.
With these, plus the sense to &C
quire a hobby akin to one followed
by her husband-to-be, and the TECH
nique of making friends that will
not only enrich your home life but
help your husband in business, the
1914 bride will have an excellent
start toward domestic bliss
Smyrna times., 1944-03-16

OF primary importance in the
self-education Of a potential wife
and mother must be the willingness
to accept her new husband for
what he is-not what she wishes
him to be, Mrs. Dixon writes.
AS a means Of approaching the
problem as honestly as possible,
Mrs. Dixon recommends that the
potential bride ascertain in advance
just what kind Of wife her pros
pective husband wants.
Having fallen in love, I'd con-
,ider whether or not the basic me
was going to suit" she writes. "a
man usually has definite idea
about the kind of wife he wants.
If his mother has been both lovable
and adequate, he is inclined to want
wife somewhat like her. I'd look
that mother over carefully, and at
some suspicious moment I'd ask my

Smyrna Landing is having a
boom this year such as has not
characterized it for more than a
score of years. The industries of
generation ago-sailing vessels,
wod, slaves, bark, lime, etc.-have
given place to those of different
character steamboat, phosphate
manufacture and tomato canning.
The Transportation Company,
which is doing so much to build up
industries and give employment to
labor, has about "a men in regular
employment in connection with the
phosphate factory and steamboat,
not including those called in on
special occasions. ]. B. Counsel
man & Co. have with the 9 and 10
can makers, carpenters at work on
their second and larger building,
workmen to number about 70.
There is besides the phosphate
works of l.. M. Price, not yet run
ming in full force. Such being the
case, it is not surprising that va
cant houses are filled and that
others will be in demand.
