MP&#@ never known Jackson
~ ecounfy farmers as a whole to
produce as much feed as they

sons they never produce enough is
that they do not plant sufficient

plant plenty of corn, cow peas,

grain and hay crops go as to have
an abundance of needed feed for

Clarke County Rural News
By ANN DOLVIN
Now that Queen Ann’s hand
kerchief lace is so pretty growing
wild all over the country, I have
been interested to learn how the
dainty flower was named. Queen
Ann had lovely hands but a most
homely face. The design in the
handkerchief was patterned after
the plant. Queen Ann used her
handkerchief to show her pretty
hands and to screen her face. This
flower can be colored very suc
cessfully by the use of powdered
wax crayons from the dime store.
It works in well and can be used
effectively in decorating.
The County Dress Revue has
been scheduled for July 17th at
4:30 o’clock., All Home Demon

girls may enter this revue. Let
ters will be gotten out Monday
with details of the euntests. Two
prizes have been offered, one for
the Lest dress worn by the women
and the other for the girls. Se
lection as well as construction
will be congidered in the judging.
| Goats’ Milk
We were interested in Mrs. S.
W. Bliss’ use of goats milk which
she uses all together. “We have
the angora goats,” she says. “They
give two quarts at each milking.
We whip It, make it into ice cream,
and drink it whole.” She plans to
churn it soon. It does have a nice
but slightly different taste from
cow's milk. The children like it
very much. Mrs. Bliss has been
interested in the selection of food
made by the goat. They are very
particular about what they eat.
They like the choicest green grass
and hay. They never touch the
bitter weed or the wild onion.
A new meth@d of treating droop -
ing chickens was learned this
week. A 4-H club girl has sug
gested that you try a drop of li
quor. It will make them dizzy but
they will feel much better in the
end. She also gjves her chickens
tomato juice which is concentrat
ed Vitamin C, and cod liver oil
for Vitamin D. The A and B vita
min is gotten irn the food. She
thinks the cod liver oil has been
helpful to the chickens. She
treats for deficiency diseases be
fore they are underway. Good
Juck was reported with the chicks.
Only one out of sixty have been
lost.
The friends of Mr. Allen Collier
will be sorry to know that he has
been ill. The symptoms of typhoid
fever have been noted. Mr. Col
lier says he feels better.
