"Pigs is Pigs"
AND CROPS ARE CROPS
Yet they’re much alike at Feeding Time
• Strange, isn’t it, to think of
pigs and crops this way ... but
science presents more and more
evidence every day to show that
food requirements of animals
and plants are much the same.
Animals need vitamins. They
could starve to death on chemi
cally pure food. So could your
crops, without vi talimpuri ties .
Chilean Natural Nitrate sup
plies the vital impurities—sup
plies them in Na
ture’s own balance
and proportion.
These vital impuri
ties are the rare
elements — iodine,

Better Breakfasts
SUSS
WHY not make tomorrow a
red letter day by including
a dish reddened with tasty
tomatoes in your breakfast? It
will look good, it will taste good,
and, with the proper accompani
ments, it will start the day off
right. Here is a suggestion for
such a breakfast menu:
Orange Juice
Oatmeal with Cream
Poached Eggs in Tomato Sauce
Toast Coffee
Poached Eggs in Tomato Sauce:
Press the contents of a No. 2 can
tomatoes through a sieve, and
bring to boiling in a skillet. In
this hot liquid poach four eggs,
lifting them out when done onto
buttered toast on a hot platter.
Meanwhile hare one small chop
ped onion sautding in two table
spoons butter. Add two table
spoons flour, stir smooth and as
soon as the eggs are out of the
tomato juice, add it slowly to the
tomato juice, stirring until
magnesium, lithium, stron
tium, and many others. They’re
all there, combined with nitro
gen, to make your crops strong
and healthy.
Chilean Natural Nitrate is
ideal for your crops. It is na
tural, the only nitrogen that
comes from the ground.
For your own protection say
“Chilean” when you order ni
trate. Two kinds —Champion
(granulated) and
Old Style. They are
both genuine. Both
are natural. Both
are Chilean. And
both give your crops
the vital impurities.

That Old Debate
There is an old debate as to
what is the best part of break
fast, but everyone agrees that
good or bad coffee makes or
breaks it. Tastes differ as to the
palatability of various coffee
blends, but everyone is agreed
that you can’t make good coffee
nut of any blend unless it is
strictly fresh.
So why not have it fresh? The
way to do that is so exceedingly
simple that it is no more of a
problem to a bride than it is to a
veteran housekeeper. There are
many blends and brands of coffee
now packed in vacuum cans and
they all stay strictly fresh till
they are opened. Be sure that
the words “vacuum packed” are
on the can of coffee you buy, and
you will have solved that part of
your coffee problem.*

NEWSPAPERS, MOVIES LEAD
IN CHOICE
What do people do with their
spare time?
In an effort to determine what
Americans do with their leisure
hours and their luxury money the
National Recreation Association dis
covered some interesting things, a
mong them:
Theaters get most of the luxury
money.
Newspaper and magazine reading
takes most of the leisure hours.
This discovery gives to theaters
and newspapers a cause for rejoic
ing and at the same time places a
great responsibility upon them.
lit
Newspaper and magazine reading
headed a list of ten things that are
done and enjoyed most by all peo
ple, young and old. married and sin
gle, during their free hours. The
other nine in their order are:
Radio, movies, visiting or enter
taining, reading fiction, auto riding,
swimming, writing letters, reading
nort-fiction and conversation.
Thus newspapers and magazines
head the list of time-takers.
X X X
Theaters, movies and stage com
bined, are favored with more luxury
money than other entertainments.
The average American spends, ac
cording to the survey, $7.70 in a
year on these.
Other items are cigars, $6.20; pipe
and chewing tobaccos, $5.15; cigar
ettes, $5.10; soft drinks, $4.50; con
fectionery, $4; musical instruments,
$2.20 and chewing gum, 41 cents.
Any way the thing is figured, the
public expresses its preference for
theaters, newspapers and magazines.
According to the survey 22 cents
of each dollar is spent for luxuries,
24.5 cents for necessities, 1.5 cents
for education and 8.5 cents for
crime.
Only a small amount is spent for
education. That is where the obli
gation rests as to newspapers and
magazines and theaters. It is ob
vious that these have a wide influ
ence on the thoughts and conduct of
the American people.
More ought to be spent on edu
cation, but since it is not, the news
papers and theaters must recognize
their obligation and use their influ
ence to the best ends possible.
At the same time they should re
joice that in these years of depres
sion they are enjoying the patronage
of the American public. For the
newspapers, we are able to say here
that the compliment is recognized
and we believe we can say the same
for the theatres. —Notheast Geor

UNLAWFUL TO BURN OFF LAND
Warning that it is against the law
to set fire on farm lands, as given by
Loy E. Rast, regional director of
the Soil Erosion Service, of Athens.
“People are rather careless with
fire,” he said. People burn off
hedges, sage fields, and other places
under the impression that it will de
stroy a dozen or so weevils, but at
the same time they are destroying a
thousand dollars worth of small
trees and timber. It is against the
laws of Georgia to set fire after
March 1. Following is thb law:
“No person but a resident owning
land or a person domiciled thereon,
outside of a town or incorporation
may set fire to the woods on the
land except as stated.
“Fires may then be set.
“After notifying all adjacent land
owners for at least 24 hours before
fire is put out. Firing woods may
be done if above notice is given be
tween January 1 and March 1 and
at no other time during the year.
“Any person that wilfully, care
lessly, or negligently sets or causes
to be set fire to any land or marsh
es so as to cause loss to another
shall be guilty of misdemeanor.

TRAIN CRASHES INTO SCHOOL
BUS
Washington.—Roaring through the
fog and rain around midnight, the
Baltimore & Ohio’s St. Louis-to-
Washington flyer crashed into a
school bus filled with singing high
school students.
Before daylight the death list was
placed at 14 with the number ex
pected to rise after a complete can
vass of Washington and Maryland
hospitals and Rockville, (Md.),
homes.
The children were students of the
Williamsport (Md.) High School.
They had attended a chemistry show
at the University of Maryland at
College Park, near Washington.
Starting back to Williamsport at
11:30 p. m. with the boys and girls
singing merrily, the driver took a
back road, the shortest route to'the
main highway to Williamsport, which
crosses the railroad tracks just east
of Rockville.
“Just as we came upon the tracks
I saw the headlights,” said Percy
Line, 30, of Hagerstown, Md., the
driver. He said he had been driving
slowly because of the fog and rain.
“It seemed to me the headlights
•were literally staring into my wind
shiled,” the grief-stricken driver,
continued.
“I stepped on the accelerator and
we were almost clear when the smash
came.
“It was as if a giant hand snatch
ed us into the air and tore the bus
apart.”
The bus was carrying 27 students
of the school’s senior chemistry
class. They were in charge of Miss
Louise Funk, 27, their teacher.
The driver and teacher were a
mong the few who escaped serious
injury because they were riding in
the front of the bus while the train
smashed into the rear of the vehicle,
virtually cutting it in two.

SOUTHERN RAILWAY
WILL AIR-CONDITION
PULLMANS AND DINERS
An extensive program of air-con
ditioning of Pullman and Dining cars
on regular trains throughout the
South, and between the South and
East, North and West, has been
started by the Southern Railway. Air
conditioned cars will be in use on all
important through trains by June
Ist, according to announcement by
E. E. Barry, Assistant General Pas
senger Agent, Atlanta.
Among the trains passing through
Georgia that will be equipped with
air conditioned Pullman and Dining
cars will be Trains Nos. 37 and 38
and the Piedmont Limited between
New York, Washington, Atlanta and
New Orleans; Trains Nos. 29 and 30
between New York, Washington,

DUST STORMS STRIKE SOUTH,
MOVE NEARER TO GEORGIA
Memphis, Tenn. —A dust storm en
veloped the south and southwest to
day.
Borne by a stiff wind out of Tex
as, the worst dust storm the agricul
tural south has known in years, set
tled over north Louisiana, Arkansas,
Mississippi and Tennessee.
Residents of Memphis, Little
Rock, Jackson and other cities awak
ened in darkness. All over the af
fected area motorists traveled with
their automobile light burning.
The dust was choking at tinrfes.
As the day wore on, however, condi
tions improved as the sun came out.
All trace of the visitation probably
will have vanished by tomorrow, me
teorologists said.
Because of the poor visibility,
plane schedules were suspended here
and at Shreveport where the storm
was fairly heavy. Schedules may be
resumed late tonight or tomorrow.
Surgeons at leading hospitals post
poned major operations because of
the seepage of dust into operating
rooms, making sterilzation of in
struments and wounds difficult.
Dr. Wallace P. Moore, county
health officer, said hay fever victims
suffered, but there was little other
damage. L. J. Kerr, county agricul
tural agent, said the dust did not af
fect vegetable or flower gardens
and fruit trees, “except to make them
dirty.”
The thick haze covered all of Ar
kansas, partially blotting out the
sunlight. The storm was so heavy
at Logview, Texas, that visibility was
limited to one block. The storm
came to Fayetteville, Ark., after 10
days of rain. The dust storm sub
sided early in the morning, however,
causing little inconvenience.
FERA TO BUY GEORGIA LAND
Washington.—The FERA is plan
ning to acquire 125,000 acres of
land in Middle Georgia—loo,ooo
acres of hilly land which is unsuit
able for, and will be removed from,
cultivation, and 25,000 acres of good
farm land.
Families on the sub-marginal land
will be removed to the 25,000 acres
of good land, Representative Vinson,
of Georgia, was advised today by the
FERA.
The land will be acquired in the
following counties, the government
probably paying from $4 to $5 an
acre for the unsuitable land, and
from $8 to sl2 an acre for the
fertile land: Baldwin, Putnam, Wil
kinson, Hancock, Jones, Twiggs and
Green.
The families who will be removed
from the unprofitable land will be
placed on fertile land “purchased in
their own counties so the counties
will not be depopulated,” Vinson was
told.
Some of the submarginal land al
ready has been purchased. It will
be reforested.
