THE HOME LAUNDRY—
The one great privilege of rich and
poor alike is clean clothes. Water Is
free, soup is cheap, and sun and fresh
air everywhere. We like to fed clean,
and like the feel of clean, smooth clothes,
This cleanliness is the strongest sup
porter of good health. The skin is made
more active by fresh clothing, which
absorbs impurities given off by the skin.
Clean, boiled clothes do not curry dis
ease germs. Clothes that are kept clean
and free from stains last longer than
when cure is taken.
Preparation For Wash Day.—It is
well the afternoon before wash day to
get randy for the wash by mending any
torn or worn garments. If some id' the
garments are very soiled It is well to
put them to sunk over night In cold
water. Hindis should lie removed before
the wash, as fresh stains eotne out more
easily than old ones. If possible deter
mine the chnrnetor of the stain before
anything Is done toward removing it.
Try the simplest method first. Choco
late and cocoa stains may bo removed
with borax and cold water, For tea,
to the child what the foundation is to
the building. The foundation, then,
must come in early life, ns it is impos
sible in inter life to make a strong,
healthy person on n weak foundation.
A child that is underweight docs not
necessarily look sick or even very thin.
It is possible, and often true, that he
is getting the best kind of food; but Ids
system, for some reason, mny not prop
erly assimilate it. It may lie possible,
too, that the child is unusually bright,
or ho may appear laay. Undernourished
children are more susceptible to disease
—the child who takes all disease* first
These physical ailments and diseases, in
turn, leave the child less able to with
stand disease in the future.
The physical examination of the Mur
ray Street School children showed, from
tlie fifty-one weighed and measured,
twenty-eight to bo more than 7 per cent,
underweight. Threo were overweight 7
per cent. Seventeen of tho number Imd
defective tonsils, and fourteen showed
signs indicating adenoids. The percent
age of underweightn in this school, how
ever, is less limn those shown by u num
ber of schools in the State where simi
lar examinations have been given.
Frequently the correction of the diet,
together with the formation of propor
health habits, will greatly improve con
ditions without medical trentmeut.
While nutrition clause* are primarily for
the children who nro underweight, the
entire school will bo benefited by the
talks concerning food habits.
A healthy, normal, properly trained
child will cat heartily of plnin food set
before him throo times a day. If the
right kind is prepared properly |ind
served regularly, and he ih not permitted
to eat between meals, tho average child
will remain well, be happy, and develop
normally, physically and mentally. The
child who demands sweets and fancy
foods hasn't tho proper food habits, amt
should bn given plnin, substantial food,
with no food of liny sort between meal*.
Sometimes children need food between
meals, but In-such eases a slice of plnin
brand or tonst will satisfy. - A glass of
milk may be given with tho bread to
the rhlhl who is underweight.
l'ropur food and regular habits will
work wonders with a child 's tendency to
bail temper. Not only tho health,
weight, physical and mental develop
ment of children, but their disposition,
depends greatly on how and wlint they
eat. I,mine Hollins.
PRICE BELOW COST.
Husincs* Magazine.
There are many good reasons why the
farmer should 'materially reduce his cot
ton acreage in 1021. There is on hand
very large over supply of cotton, for
which there is little demand. Tho mills
1 running on half-time or less. The
price is belotV cost of production. The
export trade is negligible. Foreign
countries have little purchasing power,
and no one knows when foreign trade
will increase. The mills in this country,
when run on full time, can use only
from 0,000,000 to 7,500,000 ball’s an
nually. In view of these facts, I be
lieve we will have in 1021 the Inrgest
reduction in cotton acreage wo have
ever had.
A safe system for the new year is to
raise a iietter garden, more small grain,
greater forage crops; provide for your
own meat, enough corn to supply mom-
liers of tho family and the livestock
kept on your fnrm. A complete program
was worked out by members of the State
University extension divisions of Ten
nessee, Mississippi nnd Arkansns, held
in Memphis the latter pnrt of Decern Ivor.
Tliis program will fit every cotton-
growing State.
THE FARM BUREAU PUSHES FOR
WARD.
Progressive Farmer.
A single fee should admit the farmer
anil his wife to membership in the fnrm
bureau. This is tho recommendation
made by tho American Farm Bureau
Federation nt its recent annua! meeting.
This decision mnrks a long stop forward
in the rapid progress of the fnrm bu
reau movement. For how can problens
of home nnd farm nnd community be
met and solved without the aid of the
farm woman? While the responsibility
of selling the farm products nnd buy
big tho farm equipment and supplies
naturally fulls on tho fnrmer, the advice
and co-oporntio» of tho farm woman can
bo of immense help. Oftentimes the
farm women are tho first to sco the com
munity needs as thoy affect tho home,
tlie school, and the church. Tho RCtion
of tho American Farm Bureau Federa
tion is hut a tnrdy recognition of wo
man ’* sphere of usefulness, her ability,
resourcefulness, and power in matters of
rural government and development. The
farm bureau lenders of the South have
recognized this from the very first.

MURRAY STREET SCHOOL TO
HAVE A NUTRITION CLASS—
We realize that the malnourished child
of today is the young titan or the young
wumn of toniortow who falls by the
wayside, iff, mid unfit to meet tlie re
sponsibilities of life. Extensive weigh
ing and measuring school children
throughout the United States lias shown
thut nearly half of them do not weigh
enough for their age and height. It is
our problem, then, to correct this condi
tion. The proper weight for height is
once.
The program, in ehnrge of Circle No.
1, whoso lender, Mrs. D. 8. Cuttlno, iinil
arranged everything to develop a zeal
for service in missions by furnishing
information in n demonstrative manner.
Pictures of the most interesting bn tid
ings of institutions supported by otir
church at home nnd abroad were dis
tributed, to be matched nnd descriptive
foot notes read by their holders. Then
cords nnd pencils were given, with n
request to write answers to "Wlint nro
you going to do to mnko the society
a greater blessing in the years to eoiuef"
The answers were inspirational, ono by
our president expressing the wish of one
af biblical history ”l'or an understand
ing heart" to lend these women in paths
of service. Mrs. T. K. Atklpson, whose
curd marked perhaps the highest stand
aril of excellence, fearing she could not
attain unto it, very naively said she was
writing fur the others. The answers nil
hint the true ring: "Frey more, pay
more, attend more regularly, do what
1 nm asked to do." These were read
by the authors, whom the leader Imd
told to be brief and to the point, unit to
remember to keep tho promises.
A ribbon-pinning contest oil the State
map where ••Vasliti," a home for un
protected girls, near Thomasville, is lo
cated, was attempted by some blindfold
ed Indies.
The musical numbers were given by u
quartette of Nownan’s talented musi
cians. nml would have elicited admira
tion from any audience.
After the regular hour the guests were
invited into tlie sun parlor for u social
half hour, where ten and sandwiches wore
served.
Mrs. Thompson will soon take her nn-
nunl Hitting to Florida, where she goes
to see tho close of drear winter in a
laud of summer sunshine, returning later
to Georgia to greet young Spring; hence
she enjoyed this farewell mingling with
her friends and co-workers in the mis

Brands Story False
D URING the past month, reports have come to us that at farmers’ meetings
charges have been made, sometimes direedy and sometimes indireedy, that
this Company has adopted a policy of refusing to supply repair parts for old machines -
in order to compel the purchase of new ones. This statement is absolutely false.
Such a policy has never been considered by this Company nor suggested to it.
Ordinarily we ignore such reports, because we have learned that any large
company, no matter how fair and high principled, is subject at all times to unjust
criticism. The facts are this Company has always recognized the importance of
repair service and has used every effort to make IHC service the best. We believe
we can truthfully say that the repair service furnished wherever this Company’s
goods are sold is equal if not superior to that furnished on any manufactured line.
"We call attention to the fact that machinery “Fix-up "Weeks,” instead of being
something new and originated by the farmers in 1921, as some seem to think,
were really an outgrowth of the movement started by manufacturers and dealers’
associations in connection with the Council of National Defense as a war con- ’
servation measure. Perhaps no other agency has done so much to promote
“National Repair Weeks” as this Company.
The farmer needs machines which will be efficient and economical. If his old
machines can be repaired so as to render efficient and economical service, he
would be foolish to purchase new ones. Whether the farmer utilizes and repairs
his old machines or buys new ones is a question for him to determine. But in
making his decision, we give to every farmer who owns any IHC machines the
assurance that a full stock of repair parts will always be provided by this
Company..
Today, our repair stocks on the territory available for the farmers are 21 per
cent greater than ever before at this time of the year. An average of a quarter
million pounds of repairs are shipped from IHC factories for every working
day in the year. Thirty million dollars’ worth of repair parts are now ready, as
insurance for the farmer when he needs this service.
In every International Harvester Works manufacturing orders call for repair
parts first and even when furnishing them has meant cutting down production
of hew machines for which we had orders, repairs have always had preference.
At every onqpf our 91 branch houses trained men are on duty to see that all
orders are filled and shipped prompdy. Thousands of dealers scattered every
where with an assortment of repairs in stock are always ready and willing to
render every assistance.
This service which this Company has rendered through the years to those who
have purchased its machines has been a matter of great pride to the Company,
and is the foundation of the cordial good-will existing between it and its customers.
We feel it is due the Company and those who have purchased its machines
that we give the widest publicity to the fact that this service of repairs will be
maintained and improved, and that any charges to the contrary are untrue.
