WASHINGTON, D. C-- Wash
ington is not altogether unac
customec to seeing a member of
its foreign diplomatic corps offi
cially eliminated by a revolution in
his home country.
In past cases of this sort, how
ever the obliterated plenipoten
tiary's embassy or legation has not
evaporated, too. The incoming
overseas government always has
been prompt to send a new emis
sary to take over the duties of his
kicked-cmt predecessor without
much of a break in relations, if

There is little doubt these days
the mind of farmer Amos Kirbv
about the services rendered by mod
ern American industry.
Farmer Kirby recently wanted
only enought blashing powder to re
move a stump from one of his fields,
He asked for a couple of ounces of
powder at the local general store
operated by Mrs. Emma Bunning.
Mrs. Bunning did not have the pow-!
der in stock so she phoned an order
to a Wilmington, Del., manufactur
er, and thereby hangs this story.
The manufacturer loaded the
small can of powder on an empty
freight car. The car was shunted
onto a barge and towed across the
Delaware River to Camden. Since
the law forbids storage of explosives \
in a railroad yard overnight, a spe-'

state department thereupon treated
Austria as an independent nation,
granting her certain trade benefits
and withholding them from Ger

THE GOVERNMENT of Ben

other kind.
Everyone, writes a music
critic, should learn to play some
musical instrument. “If only,"
off the radio, “in self-defense.”
Even Napoleon Which was once
afraid of Austria, gives
you a rough idea of what can
happen in six generations.

Fable: Once upon a time a
musical genius gave the best
years of his life to perfect a mel

was adopted as the theme song

Maybe the real reason the
threatened European war hasn’t
broken out is because the na

not buy this one on the install

Herr Hitler, one-time obscure
Austrian paperhanger, is cer

good—with a vengeance.
It's the average American
citizen who isn’t worrying too
much about the impending

Superior Cotton In
South Is Urged
It is advised by many of those who
have made thorough studies of the
cotton situation from a worM-wide
standpoint that South Carolina
growers should devote their efforts
sr sszs
ig well known that there has been
an over-production of cotton, it is
not generally known that there ha'
been an increasing demand for the
better grades of cotton at substantial
premiums. The production of such
cotton, therefore, appears to be the
solution of the problem facing the
growers cf the South. This can best
be accomplished by following the
recommendations of the Agricultural
Colleges and Experiment Stations
It is of greatest importance to
plant varieties of cotton which are
known to produce cotton of superlor
staple length. There are many good
varieties selecting a suitable variety
of cotton, it is essential that, proper
attention be given to the matter of
fertilization and cultural methods In
order to produce the greatest pos
fible yields,
Recent publications by the Ex
periment Station of South Carolina,
North Carolina and Georgia show
tbR t; a high ratio of potash in the
fertilizer applied to cotton is of
prime importance in the production
bf h)Rh yle)ds of ^ qU alitv of cet
toft now in demand. In addition, it
is significant that those growers who
are consistent winners in the state
wide 5-acre cotton contest, make a
practice of applying plenty of potash
M their crops. Many of these high
produoeni are finding it profitable to
use K hlgh ratio of potash in the
fertilizer mixture applied before
planting, and to supplement this
with additional potash as a side?
dressing at chopping time. Second
applications are especially important
on soils where cotton is inclined to
rust.
When an ample amount fo potash
applied, large, well-developed bolls
are produced, the staple is better
snd more uniform, rust is prevented
or controlled and picking is madp
easier
izssxss zz
ab le. As a consequence fertilizer
mixtures containing from 6 to 10 per
cent potash are rapidly growing in
popularity and the cost is wily a
few cants per acre more than is
paid for mixtures eontainging 3 and
4 percent of potash
Looal Woman: “My husband is the
only mam who ever kissed me.”
Neighbor: " Are you bragging
complaining?”
JIM KELLY, Tennille, Ga., says: “In 1937
I used 400 pounds of 6% POTASH fer- m
tilizer per acre and top-dressed with nitro
gen and 100 pounds of MURIATE of
POTASH. On 202 acres I ginned better
than 240 bales, averaging 500 pounds and
on one 14-acre plot I ginned 22 bales. My Wim
gin turnout and staple were good ^'
and my crop was free from Rust.” Jag Is
—L. *. 1. JENNINGS, Samien, Ala., aayi: “I operate six plows snd on one place where I
| used extra NV POTASH on seven acres I made 1200 pounds of seed cotton per
acre against 700 pounds per acre without the extra potash on the rest Of the plana.
Anybody could walk down that field and tell the potash cotton to the row. Whaa
is-. I pooled my cotton I got credit for full staple on the potash cotton, but not Oa
f m any of the rest. On lots of places where I didn’t use extra NV POTASH the oOttan
rusted badly and some of it died in July.”
C. t. JOHNSTON, fesMt, Ga., saysi “Folks told me that part of my land was
‘cotton-sick’ because cotton grown there rusted so badly. In 1937 I listed on
200 pounds of KAINIT par acre before planting, used 400 pounds of 4-8-6 at
planting and later top-dressed with 150 pounds of 13-0-12. The cotton did not
'
rust. I averaged a bale per acre, the staple was very good, and the gin turnout
was excellent. A tenant said: ‘Boss, where you used extra potash we got a good
ftm picking, a good second picking, And a good third picking, but where you
didn't use the extra potash we didn’t get but one picking and that One wasn’t
so good. » l»
L. t PEPPERS, AlbertrilU, Ala., styst “In 1937 I produced 22 bales on 13 Seres.
I used 400 pounds of 4-8-5 fertilizer per acre at planting and later t tiifirogeg.

dying, but the extra potash helped to correct this condition. My son had
tome cotton fertilized just like mine, but without the extra potash. Hit
% * cotton rusted but mine did not and my cotton was much easier to pick.”
F I W. W. KELLETT, of J. P. Relief! A Son, Fountain Inn, S. C, says: “For
vk three years we have used 3-8-10 cotton fertilizer where we used to use
3-8-3. Although our section suffers from Rust the extra potash in ths
I 3-8-10 has prevented Rust And given larger yields. The extra potash
•■ • ■ also produced larger bolls, which were easier to pick, and an improved
staple. We averaged a bale of cotton per acre for the last three years.”
