Ford Truck Caravan
To Visit Here Apr. 17
Next Monday, April 17th at 8 a. m.
this city will be visited by three spe
cial representatives of the -Ford Motor
Company who will bring with them
three model trucks, one a 95 HP 101”
Cab Over Engine Tractor, one a 112”
Special Delivery Panel with 60 HP
Economy Engine, and the other a 157”
95 HP Stake Body Truck with two
speed axle.
These trucks will be on display at
the local Ford dealership, Cairo Mo
tor Co., where they will be available
to local business concerns for trial
use with their own drivers and for
“On the Job” demonstrations by the
Ford Motor Company representatives.
These trucks represent only a few
of the many Ford models available
to truck users. The 1939 Fbrd V-8
trucks climax twenty-one years of
Ford truck-building experience. To
day practically every hauling and
delivery requirement can be met with
these new units. They are designed
to give the best possible service with
the greatest economy. And Ford econ
omy means over-all economy—deliv

“DON’T GIVE UP” IS
ADMONITION.—
In the last two minutes of the last
quarter of a football game, with the
score 3 to 0 in favor of the opposing
team, the University of Southern Cal
ifornia’s team on New Year’s Day
scored a touchdoWn against Duke and
changed se , em,ing defeat into a spec
tacular victory. E. F. Schewe, in the
Nasjhville Christian Advocate, says:
“The moral is obvious: Don’t give up
until you have to—and then don’t."
A successful lawyer said of a very
youthful colleague, “He doesn’t know
the value of the last ten minutes! . . .
In these distressed times many of us
are down in the doldrums and oftimes
we feel that we cannot carry on. He
calls to mind the careers of some who
have struggled magnificintly against
great odds and changed seeming
ure into true success, among them;
Leonardo da Vinci, Homer, Milton,
Pope, Carlyle : Beethoven, Fanny
Crosby, Elizabeth Barrett Browning,
Robert Louis Stevenson, Helen Keller
and Abraham Lincoln.

COUNTY AGENT'S
NOTES
By H. L. Trussed, Jr., Co. Agt.
Better Methods Make High
Yields Of Peanuts.
County Agent H. L. Trussed, Jr.,
this week advocated better cultural
methods, plus the use of good seed and
closer spacings, as a means of produc
ing higher yields of better-quality
peanuts.
“Georgia’s 1938 average peanut
yield was 800 pounds per acre, an in
! crease of 60 pounds over 1937,” the
county agent pointed out. “This in
creased yield is due largely to improv
ed cultural methods used by farmers,
as well as favorable 'weather condi
tions.
“Last year’s yield of 800 pounds was
also much higher than the average
yield for the past 10 years,” he con
tinued. “No doubt, this indicates im
proved cultivation and the use of bet
ter seed by peanut growers in the
! state.” ,
Mr. Trussell offered these sugges
tions for producing good quality pea
nuts on a profitable basis:
Soil Selection and Preparation. For
best results, a sandy loam soil with a
good amount of organic matter should
be' selected. Peanuts should not follow
peanuts, but should be planted in ro
tation with other crops that have been
fertilized liberally with fertilizers high
in phosphorous. The rotation should
contain summer and winter soil im
provement crops. The soil should be
prepared by plowing and harrowing
thoroughly.
Fertiization. Peanuts do not re
spond to fertilizer like cotton and
corn, but if 1 they do not follow a crop
'well fertilized with a complete fertil
izer or a fertilizer with a high per
centage of phosphorus, the use of 200
to 300 pounds ofa 2-10-4 fertilizer per
acre is recommended. Farmers are
reporting good increases in yield by
the use of 200 to 300 pounds of super
phosphate or 400 to 500 bounds of ba
sic slag per acre.
Seed Selection and Spacing. Plant
ing seed should be hand-picked and
only the well-filled, bright-colored nuts
kept for seed. Close spacing is essen
tial for high yields. In a spacing test
at the Coastal Plain Experiment Sta
tion the yield per acre for peanuts
planted in 3-foot rows and 18 inches
in the drill was 1,131 pounds as com
pared with 1,356 pounds for those
planted in 30-inch rows and 6 inches
in the drill.
Cultivation. Rapid cultivation with
a weeder when the plants are small,
and careful cultivation thereafter to
keep weeds and grass in check, to
maintain the stand, and to permit the
setting of nuts, are essential for high
yields. ,
Most of the imported cod-liver oil
is used to supply vitamin D in feeds
for livestock, particularly poultry.

Southern Women
Reply to Query I
Wherever they go, the “Touring
Reporters” find eager answers to
their question, “Were you helped
by CARDUI?”
Of 1297 users queried among
those of 12 states, 1206 stated
CARDUI benefitted them. That
is 93 out of every 100!
Users everywhere are glad to
tell how CARDUI has made
them want and enjoy food; how,
with its help, they gained
strength, energy, were thus re
lieved of the symptoms of “func
tional dysmenorrhea” due to mal
nutrition. Many also say that,
when symptoms indicate the
need, CARDUI in larger doses
helps “at the time” to soothe pain.

N OTHING takes the place of a good side dressing
with Natural Chilean Nitrate of Soda. The truth
of that statement is demonstrated every year on count
less farms throughout the South.
Side dress with Chilean Soda and give your crops a
natural lift just when they need it. Weeds and grass
can’t steal it from the plants. Use it regularly so your
crops can have full benefit of its natural fertilizing and
soil improving qualities.
Natural Soda costs no more — you can get it any
where.
