“Where Your Dollar Does Its Duty.”
—OUR—
WEEKLY SMILE
(C.J.T.—Phila.,Pa.)
The Hartwell Sun reporters
(“Enoch” and “Charlie”) in conven
tion assembled, at the Automat, Bth
and Chestnut streets, Philadelphia,
on Monday, July 6th, voted to send a
message of best wishes to Mrs. J. W.
Morris, Social Correspondent, and
George Clark, Jr., Sport Contributor,
whose absence from the convention
was greatly regretted. It was the
unanimous conviction of the assembly
that The Sun had made great strides
during the past few years and it was
agreed that the time was not far
distant when this shining light of
northeast Georgia would become an
enterprising semi or tri-weekly.
Louie and Leon Morris were again
elected editors for another year.
James T. Magill was reelected head
of the job department, and Charles
Sokol general utility man for the
whole outfit. Delegates to the con
vention enjoyed the week-end of the
4th at the “world’s playground,” At
lantic City. The largest crowd of
people in the history of Atlantic
City was there and the beach was
literally covered with beautiful wo
men*. Both of the delegates agreed
that the “scenery” was beautiful to
behold.
Enoch Benson’s exit from Philadel
phia’s newest hotel, the Benjamin
Franklin, had the appearance of that
of some tourist who had come to
Philadelphia on his rounds, seeking
pleasure at the expense of his own
fortune. A bell-hop with golf sticks
hung over his shoulder and a grip in
either hand escorted him to the west
entrance to this magnificent hotel
where a uniform-clad doorman open
ed the door of the cab which car
ried him to the Baltimore and Ohio
Chestnut street station. An em
ployee of Gimbel’s who witnessed it
all, remarked, “He’s a ‘dead game
sport,’ isn’t he?” I answered, “Why,
he hails from Hartwell, Hart county,
Georgia.”
And Hartwell’s paving program is
at last on paper. Folks, this will be
Hartwell’s one big step forward. But
don’t think that the election will be
carried unanimously in favor of the
program for, unfortunately, there
are in every town and community
men who are not far-sighted enough
to see the real need of street widen
ing and street paving and they -will
vote “agin” the proposition on the
ground that it will increase their
taxes. They don’t stop to consider
the boost it will give the price of
all property in the county. Some
will argue that they should not pick
out just one road and pave it with
out paving all of the other leading
highways but of course this can’t all
be done at once time. Let’s get the
first one paved. The others will
“work out their own salvation.”
Don’t be an old fogy. Vote “yes”
when the time comes and you will be
helping your children and your chil
dren’s children. We must go for
ward !
It is most interesting to me to read
in The Sun that the tree under which
I operated my first store (consisting

Nine out of ten doctors will tell
you that cow’s milk is the next best
food for babies to mother’s milk.
Dr. John P. Sutherland, former Dean
of the Boston University School of
Medicine, in an address before the
meeting of the American Institute of
Homeopathy, in New York City,
some time ago, disagreed with this.
He also stated that he believed that
milk as a food for adults did more
harm than good, “For,” he said, “A
food that was intended for infants
certainly has nothing to offer a fully
developed man. He stated further:
“It is not generally known yet
what varieties or quantities of min
eral salts are to be found in well
'developed human brain cells, but cer
tain very definite elements are there,
and the elements must be supplied
in the food given to infants and chil
dren and the growing body, for the
body cannot create these elements,”
said Dr. Sutherland.
“The opinion is here ventured that
given a more appropriate food the
mental power of the race could be
materially improved. Brain cells are
formed early in the growth of the
embryo; being recognized as special
ized cells as early as the second
month.
“Provided brain cells are well
started during pre-natal life, the suit
able proportion, quantity, and variety
of chemical elements must be sup
plied to keep up subsequent growtht
and activity. Nature unquestionably
planned to have the human mother
supply her offspring with a perfect
milk, capable of offering the baby all
the varied substances needed to de
velop bones, muscles, viscera, blood,
brain and other organs and tissues,
which together form the ideal child.
Are these things supplied by cow’s
milk or by the average mixed and
artificial diet upon which young hu
manity is fed?

Fruits and Vegetables Important In
Family Diet.
The amount of fruits and vege
tables in the diet has a very definite
influence on health. These foods
provide the minerals and vitamins so
necessary to health, says Miss Susan
Mathews, nutrition specialist at the
State College of Agriculture, and are
helpful in maintaining the neutrality
or slight alkalinity of the blood and
tissues. Milk, fruits and vegetables
are non-acid forming and tend to
neutralize acid in the system, while
meats, eggs and all cereal foods leave
an acid ash in the tissues.
“It is therefore the duty of those
at the head of the family to see
that a supply of vegetables and fruits
sufficient to meet the needs of the
family the year round is provided,”
says Miss Mathews. “There should
be an all-year garden and canned
foods through the winter months
when the number of vegetables which
can be grown in the garden is limit
ed.
“The requirements for the family
should be based on the following:
“Vegetables, other than potatoes
and dried beans, should be served
twice daily; tomatoes, three times a
week; fruits, once daily; and eggs,
at least once per day for children.
“In Georgia it is possible to get
at least one fresh vegetable from the
garden each day during the winter
months, and since two are required,
it is, wise to can one vegetable per
day for this season. This depends
however on the location. Those liv
ing in the northern part of the state
can more than those living in the
southern part. For the majority it
is desirable that there be provided
one canned vegetable for each day
from November to May 1."

GROWING FALL IRISH POTATOES
Select a low moist place, something
like second cotton land, break well
with a two-horse plow and harrow
several times and if possible prepare
the land several weeks before plant
ing time. Lay off the rows three
feet apart using a middle burster
with a good point on it, so as to get
a good deep furrow. Put 300 to
600 pounds of a high grade fertiliz
er per acre in the bottom of the fur
rows, running through these furrows
with a subsoil plow to mix fertilizer
and soil together. Drop the pota
toes in bottom of furrow. Plant
the potatoes 12 to 18 inches apart,
stepping on each piece as it is drop
ped. Cover with a good size ridge;
the potatoes should he covered 6 to
7 inches deep. Don’t cut the pota
toes until you are ready to plant;
the cuts should not be exposed to
the sun and light any more than you
can possibly help, which makes it
advisable to plant early in the morn
ing or late in the afternoon.
Don’t cut the potatoes into too
small pieces; use medium size pieces.
For instance, a potato the size of a
hen egg should be cut in not more
than 4 to 6 pieces. Good time to
plant is from the middle of July to
the middle of August.
I think the Lookout Mountain va
riety is the best potato for the fall
crop. Cultivate as you would other
crops. »(
