We fast on beans and peas,

That summer gardens please.

T ,. e cabbages tire just immense,
such cukes and bantam corn!
Along the paths tall asters nod
And bees make busy hum.
What man could say there is no God
When autumn days are come!
A whine of winds and storm clouds

The s ow lies .cold and deep,
In carved, white drifts; tucked warm
away
My garden’s fast asleep
Long evening
hours I sit and plan,
den by providing the seed for them. 1
Of course, under the present fed
eral relief program no one need be
deprived of the opportunity of hav
ing a garden, for we understand that
the local relief agencies are anxious
of the opportunity of furnishing seed
to those who are unable to purchase
them, in order that they might have
a garden.
Let us not forget that this is the
season when we should get the fever
for very soon many of us will get
another kind of fever, and we wart
to get the garden planted before it
comes time for the fishing bug to
bite us.
Paragraphs Here and There
President Thompson has made a
worthy suggestion: He suggests that
the best time to pay your dues for
the coming associational year is
when you receive your pay check on
April 16, as the increase you will get
at that time will more than take ,care
of your dues, ar.d since you have got
used to doing without the 6 per cent
you can apply the first that you re
ceive toward paying your dues. A
fine suggestion, we think. 1 wonder
how many brothers can be counted
on to do this. Don’t be numbered in
that class of “put-it-off” this spring.
We all intend to pay our member
ship dues in the association, the

illation that another Brother died
during the week of March 3-10, add
ing another to the long list of deaths
during that week. Bro. R. L. Wil
liams, of Boston, Thomas County,
died on March 5. He was a member
of our association, and carried insur
ance in th' group division. This is
the way we learned of his recent
death, through the widow making in
quiry about the collection on same.
We haven’t definite information
about funeral services. surviving
relatives, etc., but we hope to give a
more extended account of his illness
und death in these column,' later.
Mrs. Mayo’s Death
We announced in our news col
umns last week the death of Mrs. J
P. Mayo, wife of Rural Carrier J. P
Mayo, of Richland, which occurred on
Tuesday evening, March f>, at 8:45.
Through u misunderstanding, it was
stated that she died from injuries
sustained in an automobile accident
which occurred two weeks previously
However, we wish to correct this as
her death was not caused from this,
but from kidney trouble and the aft
er effects of the flu.
She is survived by her husband, j is similar to that devoted to cotton

Rented Cotton Acres Must Be
Representative
Cotton producers in Taylor county
who have signed AAA contracts are
again reminded by the county agent
that rented acres must be repre-
sei itutive of the area cultivated by
the producer this year in order to
establish compliance with the cotton
production adjustment contract. The
purpose of the reduction of from 25
to 35 per cent in acreage is to
I achieve a similar reduction in pro
duction. .
There is no change in the 1935
contract from the regulations of last
yeur in this regard and producers
are not entitled to rent poor land to
the Secretary of Agriculture under
the cotton contract while planting
better land to cotton.. County' and
community committeemen will again
give special attention to the rented
land and will determine whether it
feeds—corn, silage crops, summer
hays and grazing. There will not be
abundant feed produced this yea:
unless this is done now and prices
for bought fe?d will likely remain
high ftr some tiro.
“Some dairymen are right now
feeding the best quality of silage
from a trench silo and keeping their
cows in good production. This silage
in some eases has cost the farmers
les than $3.00 a ton.
“Sometimes the cows get into the
growing crops thru a weak or brok
en place in the fence. March Is a
good time to go over the fences und
make needed repairs, to proven*
trouble later on. Good fences, kept in
good repair, are a valuable asset to
the livestock man.

With spring actually making its
appearance within a few day s in its
cfficial capacity, it is time for us all
to get out the garden tools ar.d see
that they are in good shape and
art selecting the seed that we wish
to plant in that garden this year.
There are not many who haven’t
ever had the desire to plant a garden
if we had the available space and
watch it grow to maturity during the
spring and summer months. It is
true that if we are to realize any
thing from our efforts a method of
systematic fertilization and cultiva
tion must be adhered to, but we are
always rewarded for these by the
produetton of just the kind of vege-
, tables we like most.
Knowledge of the potential ncces-
have all the necessary paraphernalia
to enroll you, so let the $3.50 be
coming forth.
After more than 17 years out of
the service, we are happy to report
that Bro. J. W. Perdue, formerly a
carrier a tKatlileen, Houston. County
has been reinstated in the rura^ de
livery service and assigned a route
at Perry, Ga., which was left vacant
through the recent retirement of Bro.
F. M. Culler, who reached the age
limit last fall.
We have been wondering just how-
many rural carriers have availed
themselves of the opportunity- of
visiting the State Capitol while the
legislature was in session, and look
ing in on one of our members, Bro.
G. M. Gammage, performing his du
ties as representative from Terrell
County. Brother Gammage is a re
tired rural carrier, a past president
of our association and very soon af-
tei his retirement was elected as
mayor of his home town, Bronwood.
and afterward defeated one of Ter
re! 1 county’s leading citizens for the
honors of representing that county

It seems that the newspapers and
other agencies in ar.d around Atlanta
are not getting the response that
they should from the appeal they are
making for the contribution of dimes
150,000 of which they are trying to
raise to provide funds to build a suit
able housing quarter for the Candler
zoo which has been offered the city
of Atlanta, and since the rural car
riers of Georgia are interested in
every good move that will help—n
only Atlanta but the whole state, I
feel that we should have a part 'll
providing funds for this great cause.
This addition to the zoo at Grant
Park will mean a whole lot to the
people of this state outside of Atlan
ta, so let me suggest that you send
along a few dimes to help out in
raising the amount necessary to build
the quarters to house the animals.
Then when you visit the city you can
visit the zoo with your .children and
be proud that you had a little part in
this great achievement.
Funds can be sent to either of the
Atlanta papers, or to Lewis Gordon,
trustee, Citizens & Southern Back,
Atlanta, or if you desire that con
tributions from the rural carriers be
concentrated, you may semi them di
rect to the editor of these columns
and we will see that they are sent
in. Come on, carriers, let’s help out
in this worthy cause, for after all,
everything that helps Atlanta helps
every other citizen living in the state.

A CHILD’S LAXATIVE
SHOULD BE UQUID
{Ask any doctor)
For your own comfort, and for your
children’s safety and future welfare,
you should read this:
The bowels cannot be helped to
regularity by any laxative that can’t
be regulated as to dose.'That is why
doctors use Jiquid laxatives.
A liquid laxative can always be
taken in the right amount. You can
gradually reduce the dose. Reduced
dosaye is the secret of real and safe
relief from constipation.
> The right liquid laxative dose gives
the right amount of help. When
repeated, instead of more each time,
you take less. Until bowels are mov
ing regularly and thoroughly without
sny help at all.
The liquid laxative generally used
is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It
contains senna and cascara, natural
laxatives that form no habit — even
in children. Its action is gentle, but
sure. It will clear up a condition of
biliousness or sluggishness without
upset. Every druggist has it.

save major service opera

that you drive your car in
