ox GUANOS Increase Farm Profits. You Can Increase Farm Profits By raising the level of crop yields— By improving the quality of crops grown— By increasing the fertility of the soil— By buying plant food instead of brand names. It is the plant food in the bag that counts; the more units of plant food in the bag, the lower the cost per unit. High Analysis goods can’t be made from low analysis materials. Are Your Plants Pikers? There are twenty-four hours in each day. Make your plants work every one of the twenty four. The growing season is short.

C., in 'besieging the eities of Belium and Platea, burned pitch and sulphur un der the walls of the cities to break down their defense by suffocating the defending troops. Every British aviator flying over Afghanistan carries a letter sewed j into his coat stating that if the bearer is returned unharmed to the British lines, his rescuers will receive ten ■ thousand rupees or approximately | $3,500. THE HARTWELL SUN, HARTWELL, GA., APRIL 3, 1925 Inventor Had Taken No Chance of Loeing Surely, the Scotch are the moat tol erant people In the world, as they bear the brunt of moat of Its so-called humor. But there la considerable basis for the well-circulated theory that the Scot la canny. Here Is an authentic yarn, vouched for by Harry Turnies In his “Some Victorian Men" that Il lustrates the point. When Bessemer, the genius who gave to steel his name, came to make his discovery public, he put a lump of the famous steel in his pocket and made his way to Nasmyth, of steel-hammer fame. Placing the metal on Nasmyth’s desk, he told him that he had made an extraordinary discovery which would revolutionize the whole metal world. Then came a little incident which shows what wonderful heads these Scotch financiers possess. What do you think Nasmyth said to thia excited in ventor? “Eh, mon, it's vary risky to show your wonderful invention. The world is very dishonest.” To which the inspiring inventor re plied : “Right, Mr. Nasmyth. I just calcu lated whom I was coming to see, so with my last half-crown I registered the invention on my way." Lenny Really Didn’t Know Weight of Hog If old Lenny Foskett was anything more than deliberate, he was exasper ating. He moved, spoke and lived at his own sweet will, and no one had ever been known to budge him. He came into the village store one morn ing, threw himself down on the bench in front of the counter and announced that he had just killed his prize hog. “Guess how much he weighed, boys,” he drawled. “Two hundred and seventy-five,” ventured one of the loungers. Lenny shook his head. Others offered suggestions; the guesses grew so brisk that it began to sound like an auction. All sorts of weights were given, but to all of them Lenny merely shook his head. The others began to lose patience. From mere curiosity they began to long pas sionately to learn the weight of the hog and pass on to another subject. “Well, for heaven's sake, how much did your old hog weigh?” somebody demanded. ‘’We've guessed every fig ure possible! How much did he weigh?" Lenny yawned. “Hi —hum. 1 dun no,” he drawled. "I ain't weighed him yet."—Youth’s Companion. Man-Made Earthquake It is believed that the numerous small earthquakes recently reported from the Midlands of England are due to the handiwork of man. In excavat ing for coal and iron the miner cuts away millions of tons of rock and coal and piles It on the surface, thus set ting up all sorts of stresses. In July, 1913, dwellers near the coast of Car narvonshire were startled out of their sleep by loud subterranean rumblings, while the earth quivered over an area of many square miles. It was found that a considerable area of land lying between the Rivals granite quarries and the shore had started to slide sea ward. The fact was that the waste of the quarries which for years has been dumped on this lower ground, had proved too much for it, and had set the whole ledge sliding, producing a very good imitation of a real earth quake. Tree-Climbing Fish In India there is a fish known as the tree-climbing perch. Technically the scientists call it “anahas testudineus scandens." By means of Its fins and gills this fish can travel overland from one body of water to another. Its breathing apparatus is adapted for life out of the water. Stories about this fish’s ability to climb trees should be taken with liberal portions of salt. The United States bureau of fisheries in forms us that these tales of Its tree climbing propensity “are heritages from early travelers and are largely mythical.” However, the climbing perch has been known to work its way upon stones and inclined tree trunks. This is as close as it ever comes to climbing trees. —Exchange. She Wanted a Change Betty had only lately been Instructed in the matter of evening prayers, and her performance was exemplary until the occasion when she startled her mother with the petition: “Bless Thy little pig tonight.” She was reminded that the correct word was “lamb,” but refused to re turn to orthodoxy. At last, when pressed for the cause of this stubborn naughtiness, she re pliefl that she was tired of being a lamb. “Every night,” she protested, “it has been lamb, lamb, lamb! So to night I'm going to be a pig, and to morrow night I am going to be an ele phant.” Gelatin as Food The potential energy of gelatin is calculated to be even more than that of some fats and albuminate, and yet in the body it Is very inferior In the production of energy. It cannot, therefore, take the place of proteins for growth and repair and must be regarded solely as an albumin sparer. Neither can It replace albumin, the loss of which still goes on to some extent even when gelatin is eaten in large quantities. It Is used in the body very much like the carbohydrates and fats. 1. e., not as a tissue builder, but as a fuel food.

Wife Was His Memory “Your story of the absent-minded minister,” writes a contributor to the Youth's Companion, “reminds me of a minister whom I knew in a little Wis consin town many years ago. He had a wretched memory, but for all that he was nothing less than a saint. "His absent-mindedness was chronic. He seldom could remember his text, and, being averse to notes, he depend ed on his good wife to come to his rescue. He would lean over the pulpit and say, ‘What was my text for today, my dear?' “She would tell him, and he would them proceed to preach a fine sermon from it; “One Sunday after the singing of the second hymn he opened his Bible and, leaning down, made the usual re quest: ‘My text for today, my dear?’ “ ‘I don't know, I'm sure,’ composed ly replied his wife. ‘You forgot to tell me I’" Butterless Land The supply of fluid milk In the Do minican republic is fairly adequate, and although it is in general use for adults, modern methods of production and distribution do not prevail. A large amount of condensed, evap orated and powdered milk is Imported into the country each year and one or the other of these preserved milks Is always used for Infant feeding. No butter is made anywhere in the re public and the demand for this com- | modlty in the local market is met by importations chiefly from the United ! Rtates and Denmark.
