Thanksgiving

of the Constitution. President Madison
also set a day to give thanks for the
peace during 1915, but it was not until
the time Of Abraham Lincoln, in 1863,
that we had a national Thanksgiving
proclamation, setting apart the third
Thursday in November as a day to be
observed.
Our Thanksgiving Day in the United
States, then, is relatively young, but it
has taken hold more firmly than any
other Thanksgiving Day in any other
country, and has spread to the various
corners of the world.
1t is one of our most-enj Dyed holi-
days, a colorful observance and an in
spiration. To many Americans it signi-
fies the coming end Of the year, the
completion Of most of the harvesting
of the year. the end of the football sea-
son and the beginning of several hunt
ing seasons.
In observing Thanksgiving Day this
year, we can only hope that by the time
Thanksgiving Day, 1862 rolls around,
the world tension over Berlin and the
threat Of communism will have been
overcome.

VIRGINIA and Massachusetts are hav-
ing a friendly discussion of which
observed the first Thanksgiving. The
Hon. John J. Wicker, Jr., of Richmond,
recently carried the argument to Mas
sachusetts along with Virginia turkey,
ham, etc. The fact is that the first
Thanksgiving was celebrated in Virginia
at Berkeley Plantation before the Puri-
tans landed in Massachusetts,, but the
friendly discussion still continues.
In our short memory, Thanksgiving
was regarded with almost the same re-
verence as was shown for Sunday. 1t
was customary for families to attend
religious services and afterwards to
gather around the table and a bounteous
dinner, including turkey and pumpkin
pie.
In some instances churches were de-
corated with farm products in order
that the members of the congregation
might see what they had to be thankful
for.
The first Thanksgiving proclamation,
issued by any President, came in 1889,
when George Washington ordered a
day of Thanksgiving for the adoption

clothes from the design
ing boards of Helen Rose and
Irene.
Both share a common
background of having de-
signed for the screen. Irene
left many years ago to go
into wholesale designing in
the California market. In
1858 Helen Rose took on her
added duties.
The Oscar-winning MGM
studio designer became a
California couturier almost
by popular demand. So many
women wrote in wanting the
dresses she designed for such
stars as Cyd Charlse, Eliza

call that she, too, turned to
the mass-produced market.
She still is under contract at
MGM.
So well is her House Of

with work tables, dummies,
patterns and toiles pushed
back to make room for the

CHARLESTON, city of

seat of secession, trembled at
the threat of Federal inva-
sion as 1851 drew to a close.
An old city, it was founded on

By 1860, Charleston
South Carolina's largest me-
tropolis, more aff1uent and
influential than ever with the
development of the cotton in
dustry-was fervent with a
spirit of new independence:
freedom from central govern
ment. South Carolinians had
fired the first shots of the war
at Charleston, but now
Charleston was feeling wide
open to assault by one of the
Federal invasion forces
which had already seized
three Southern defense
points along the Atlantic
coast.

Huguenots had named the
area after their own King
Charles TX. Among the early
settlers were wealthy plant
ers who emigrated from the
West Indies, bringing their
Negro slaves with them. Olive
oil, wine and silk were to
have been the principal in
dustries. The nature of the
soil and climate along the
coastal flats proved ideal for
rice-growing, however, SO
that crop became basic to the
economy. Slaves-Indian as
well as Negro-rapidly be-
came another mainstay of the
economy. AS time went on,
Charlestonians grew increas-
ingly proud, birth-conscious,

Many lawn disease problems

This program differs in that
we apply the chemicals before

This program is dependent

COW will not consume as much hay
when the concentrate feeding rate
is increased For example:
If dairyman is feeding hay and
he steps up the rate of grain feed
ing, the COW will eat less hay so
the dairyman will have a cost diff
erent from the quoted price for the
feed consumed. If the dairyman is
feeding a low-priced hay, the net
cost of his grain will be higher if
he replaces some of the hay with
grain.
Here are the major calculations
that may be made with Caskey's S

Caskey-who has had electronics
as a hobby for many years-design-
ed the "Cowculator" with the aid of
his son, David l.. Caskey, who is
student at Massachusetts Instit-
ute of Technology majoring in ele-
ctrical engineering. They built the
computer in their Linthicum, Md,
home.
Born in 1907, Caskey grw up on
a cotton and small grain farm in
Fannin County, Texas. He received
a BIS. Degree from Oklahoma Ar
NJ College in 1929. Following eight
years as chief control chemist for
the Oklahoma State Board of Ag-
riculture, Caskey resigned to enter
Cornell University where. in 1910,
he received his Ph.D. Degree in an
imal nutrition. That same year he
joined Southern States Cooperative
as director of its quality control
laboratory.
In 1916 Caskey was appointed
director of Research and vice pres
ident of Cooperative Mills, a post
which he still holds.
