Canned Products
Pay Dividends
For Mrs. DeLoach
For a quarter of a century, Mrs.
S. E. DeLoach of Sumter county
has been winning from $30 to $40
in prices with her canned pro
ducts at fairs throughout Georgia.
She hasn’t missed a year since
1915 and her honors have come
from such places as Southeastern
fair in Atlanta, the Macon fair and
the County fair in Americus.
Mrs. DeLoach raises the vegeta
bles that go into the cans that get
the blue and red ribbons on a one
acre plot of land. This year she
canned 800 cans of vegetables and
fruits, but she doesn’t depend on
fair prizes for her money—she
sells a vast amount of her canned
goods to stores and direct to cus
tomers.
In addition to heir canned pro
ducts, she sells milk and butter.
She has two dairy cows. Then, too,
she derives some farm income from
the sale of chickens and eggs.
This year she raised 400 fryers.
Thirty four years ago, Mr. De
Loach suffered a broken back.
Since that time his wife has play
ed an important part in the opera
tion of the farm. Her husband’s
farming knowledge has helped a
lot, but there were things he could
not do that Mrs. DeLoach has been
able to attend.
Mr. and Mrs. DeLoach have had
nine children, eight of whom are
still living. All of them have been
members of the 4-H clubs, and to
day they have seven grandchildren
who are clubbers. When the
children were at home they help
ed with the farming, but since all
have r«wn up and ha- e left home
it has been impossible for Mr. and
Mrs. DeLoach to see after all of
the farm. So they have disposed of
all the land except 70 acres, which
is now in pastures.
The one acre of land given over
to the garden, from which she
obtains some of her prize canned
goods is the only land on the farm
that is now in cultivation. Seven
ty acres of land are in pastures,
which are used to graze the milk
cows and beef cattle of a son-in
law of Mrs. DeLoach.
Twice a year Mrs. DeLoach hir
es help in har garden, but she
always does the rest of the work
herself. She employs a man to
break up the ground and to plow it
once. She does all of the hoeing,
gathering the crop and putting it
up in cans.
In addition to winning prizes at
the fairs for her canned p-oducts,
ten years ago she won a $40 gar
den prize from a fertilizer compa
ny for the best garden in har sec
tion.
A farm woman who has a w E
and a way—that is Mrs. S. P
DeLoach of Sumter county. She
has a will to work in order to help
along with the family budget. And
she has a way of taking the prize
ribbons at the fairs, which also
add to the family coffers and gives
her the satisfaction of knowing
thr' she really knows how to put
up a quality home-grown pro
duct.

I like paths across new-turned sod
That tie two country homes to
gether,
By a borrowed cup of tea or lard
In cluod or sunshine weather.
I like the little crooked paths
That stand for good .straight liv
ing,
Of practicing the golden rule
Of taking and of giving.
It is a common practice among
breeders and some dairymen to
feed a portion of skimmed milk
until the calf is about six months
old.

Need for Accurate Personal Records
In Present Day Living Seen
Records are becoming more and
more important each day. They
are needed in many ways, For
*hat reason all records should be
kept in a safe place where they
i are accessible. In addition to your
1 self, family should know
your
where you keep your records, in
eluding your life insurance poli
rieSi and y our Social Security ae
count number card. They may
need them in the event of your
death.
Every worker should make a re
cord of his valuable papers. First,
he should have a record of his Fed
eral old-age and survivors Jnsur
anee account with the Govern
ment. This means that he should
have a record of his Social Secur
ity Account number card, It
means also that if he and his fam
ily are to get all the insurance to
which they may be justly entitled,
each employer for whom he works
should have a proper record of his
Social Security account number
card. The name of the worker and
the number of his card should be
reported by his employer to the
Bureau of Internal Revenue every
tinm tire employer makes a tax re
turn. A few small employers think
they have to report a worker’s
number only once. His number and
his name should be reported every
time a tax return is made under
the Social Security Act.
Each worker in commerce, busi
ness and industry should write to
the Social Security Board once a
year for a statement of his wage
record account. In writing for this
statement, the worker should ad
dress his letter to the Social Secur
ity Board office located nearest
him. He should be sure to give the
date of his birth and the number
of his Social Security account
card. He should sign his name just
like he signed it when he received
day. In the event of a worker’s
death before age 65, if his child
gets his insurance under the
amended Social Security Act, he
his card. He should not send his
card, but the number of the card,
together with the date of his birth
and his present address to which
he wishes his statement sent.
Each worker should keep a rec
ord of the date and place of his
oirth. Proof of birth is becoming
more and more important each
must first prove that he is the
child of the wage earner. This also
may be necessary before the child
can inherit the wage earner’s prop
erty. Suppose someone, after your
death, denies that your child is ti e
legal heir to your estate, be that
estate ever so small. Could he
prove that he was yo u child and
entitled to share in your estate?
The best proof of ago. the best
proof of parentage, that anyone
can have is a birth certificate. Do
you have a birth certificate for
e u h cf your children? Is the birth
of each of your children properly
recorded with the Sta*e Bureau of
Vital Statistics? It would be wril
for you to check up on it while
you are thinking about it.
Many people who are row old
do not have a birth certificate. In
sofar as they know there '■$ no way
to prove their age. Berore a retired
