WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT
VITAMINES
Most interesfelhB experiments in
nutrition have brought, to us a
knowledge of wlml the vitamino
does for the hotly and in what
foods it may be found.
For want of a better way of in
dicating the three vilamines thus
f■ir discovered, they are called fat
soluble A, water soluble B, and
and water sou bio 0.
A and B are the important
growth promoters and are found
in many of the same foods,
A is eallod the anti-rachitic,
vitatninc, or the preventer of rick
ets. Ii is also a specific in certain
oyo diseases.
B is the atiti-ueimlie vitamine,
and the lack of it in the diet
causes terrible soourgos of beri
b:>ri in some parts of the world.
0 is the anli-seorbutic or the
preventer of scurvy.
Fortunately these vitaminesare
found in our common foods, Milk
contains all three of them and is
particularly high in the growth
promotors A and B.
It is in the cream of milk that
A, i lie fat soluble, is found, and
butter, eggs, the glandular organs
of animals (liver, kidneys, etc.,)
furnisli rich sources.
Spinach turn ip greens, cabbage
Col lards, lettuce, string beaus,
okra, asparagus and other leafy
and succulent vegetables contain
vitamino A.
When ono realizes that in ad
dition to the easily assimilated fat
and sugar which milk coiiluijhs, it
supplies vitamiues for growth,
lime and phosphorus for bones
and teeth, and furnishes just about
the highest quality protein »r
body-builder in existence, one is
in full sympathy with the nutri
tion specialists tvho nro urging
“one pint of milk per day for
adults and one quart for chil
dren. ” —Mirs. Jano S McKimmon,
State Homo Demonstration Agent
in Tlio progressive Fanner.
DEMAND FOR OATS
1 .There is no doubt that Southern
commodities that carry a label
are having a travel just now a
rocky road—tlio is is our own fault
if thoy do. But there are iv great
many Southern farm products
that are sold in bulk and do not
gooutinlinor glass eaus or in
fancy cartons with fancy colored
labels on them; and though the
s dliug of these bplk goods was a
imrd matter a year ago yet today
finds us iu a very different status.
1 know right now a tremendous
demand for Fulghum Oats and
this demand not only obtains in
the South where wo know this to
be the best of all oats but it ob
tains in the West where this oat
now is beiug used in place of the
inferior Burt Oats; but not a bu
fihel can be bought! Why is it? It
is because the farmer last fall
thou rht lie couldnt sell them later
on at the higher prices for seed
purposes and so being a little
short of food he fed them up to
bis horses at feed oat prices.
There is here every year a tre
mendous demand during Decem
ber. January and even until the
middle of February for Fulghum
Oats and that demand generaly
goes unsupplied, fix.

The Twelfth District Dairy As

KEEP A COIN*
We have heard a great deal dur
ing the past .two years about “the
spirit of unrest" iu , this country.
Isn’t it rather the spiritless dispo
sition to rest that has held back
the dawning era of prosperity?
Health, happinssand success all
depend upon work. Indigestion
insomnia, irritability —all are the
outcome of too much indulgence in
idleness and the jazz program that
follows
Not one individual in ten exer
cises more than a part of his given
power—the power that he actually
possesses for progress and pros
perity- All of us live within the
limits of our possibilities to earu
more and to be more.
Most men work\with one chief
aim in view, when they reach six
ty/or seventy they propose to re
tire. The real fact is that the man
who works earnestly and energet
ically until he is sixty or seventy
cannot afford to retire.
The expectency of a man’s life,
a‘.cording to those who have made
a study of the length of life, is
nvo-thirds the difference between
liis present age and eighty. Let a
well man retire from business at
the ago of sixty-five, he will pro
bably live until seventy. Let him
continue to keep busy and bis atu-
§al expectancy is death at seventy
five.
This statement, should be enough
to encourage any man to remain
in the business harness and to
throw off the f§ Hsh plan of re
tiring at any certain age-
The way to extend your life and
to make it more valuable to your
self and to others, is to engage in
some interesting work and never
once drro to stop and take an in-
vatory of your ills that you are
sure to inherit in business.—Jones
County News.
SING A SONG.
We heard a young man sinking
as he worked in the store, a lew
days ago The sound of his cheer
fu.l voice arose above the rumble
arid helmed through the place. We
were glad to hear him singing at
his work.
The voice of-the wife, singing as
she hushes about her kitelieu, is a
joy forever.
Singing lightens labor. If you
can’t sing audibly, hold song in
your heart.
Whether song be light and gay,
or sweet and sad—it is music, and
music cleanses the understanding,
encourages, inspires, and lifts our
hearts and minds above the com-
Tnon things of earth that harass
and try us.
Those who love music al
ways have a source of happiness
and the power to appreciate the
joys and the griefs of others.
Sing.—Ex.

Just a Word Why
Churches Should Advertise
The writer was in Syracuse, N. Y., one Sunday last August.
He was detained because of an accident to his car. He wanted
to go to church that night, but he didn’t know where to go.
He picked up the Syracuse Sunday paper and looked through
it from the front page to the hack, but there wasn’t a word
about the church or the church services. As far as the papers
were concerned that city might have been churchless.
But it wasn’t so with the movies and other houses oft
entertainment. Oh, no! Their invitations were spread in large
advertisements all over the page. There were a dozen or so
invitations to go out on Sunday night for amusement, but
not one to go to the House of God.
Possibly the church notices appeared in the Saturday
issue. They generally do, but this was Sunday and the
Sunday paper was the one available. The amusement
places do not overlook the Sunday papers.
There may have been many more in the city with the
same thoughts and desire as the writer. He happened to
remember that sometimes the churches have bulletins in the
hotel corridors, so he took the trouble to go downstairs.
Being a Methodist* he looked for the Methodist churches.
There were - two on the board, so he picked out one and
took a chance. ^
We suppose that some will say that a man or woman
who wants to go to church will find a way. That’s true,
but why permit the theatres to have the monopoly? Isn’t.the
church a business ? If it isn’t, it’s lime it whs. Think it over.
