Conservation of rubber is vital to Victory and
the cooperation of everyone is a national necessity!
Southeastern Greyhound Lines, already in all-out ef
fort, now goes still further. It is cooperating with the
Governmental recommendation for 40-mile-per-hour
maximum ... to conserve tires.
War-time travel has reached unprecedented volume
. . . facilities and equipment have been pressed into
service of military men on duty trips and furloughs,
government men on important missions, war workers
between defense plants and homes, civilians on busi
ness.
It's a big job to maintain accommodations to meet
the increased demand and provide emergency serv
ice. Butl Far bigger is the all-important job of
every possible contribution toward Victory. Com
pared with that, a few minutes additional running
time becomes a very small matter.
We've got to win ibis (far. Rubber Is needed,
urgently, and Greyhound has pledged its coopera
tion to conserve It.

CONTROL GRASS IN
PEANUTS. AGENT SAYS
Keeping early grass under
control is necessary for good
peanut yields, according to
County Agent W. T. Middle
brooks.
He pointed out this week that
when glass accumulates in the
row and gets to the bunch stage,
it is difficult to remove. Aiso,
in many cases the peanut stand
will be reduced and the remain
ing crop will be damaged,
to Keep grass under control
vir. Middlebrooks advised run
ning a weeder or drag harrow 1
over the peanuts either with or
diagonally across rows at regular
.nlervals from the time peanuts I
appear above the ground until
these implements begin to injure
the plants. First cultivations are
possibly most important, he
warned, since they kill grass be
fore it gets a good hold on the
ground.
In case peanuts get too large
for weeder or harrow cultivation,
the agent said subsequent culti
vations should be made with im
plements that will keep grass
under control and work as small
amount of dirt as possible to the
plants. He suggested that one
or two hoeings may be necessary
to get bunch grass out of the
row,
“Let’s make Hounton county’s
yield per acre goal for 1942 not |
less than 1,000 pounds of pea
nuts,” Mr. Middlebrooks urged
tamers. Ttiis 1,000 pounds per
Here over the entire state would
mean approximately 82,000,000
pounds of extra oil for victory.
High yields per acre are more
profitable to the producer and |
will be a bigger contribution in
winning this war, the county
agent concluded.
SANITATION. CHECK
ON FOWL PARALYSIS
The first rule in prevention of
fowl (range) paralysis is sanita
tion. Neither drugs, tonics,
medicies, vaccines, bacterins.nor j
special feeds have been effective |
in either preventing or curing
this “mystery” disease of poul
try, according to County Agent
w. T. Middlebrooks. The di
sease causes about half of all
poultry disease losses and costs
poultry raisers millions of dollars
annually.
Exclude visitors from poultry
premises, says Mr.Middlebrooks.
Keep the brooder house clean,
dry and ventilated: avoid over
crowding and overheating; and
get the chicks outdoors early.
Provide chicks with an adequate,
well-balanced diet and clean,
fresh water.
Special care should be taken
to brood chicks as far away from
mature birds as possible, and
rear them on clean grass range
that has not been occupied by
hens the year before. When an
outbreak of fowl paralysis be
gins, he suggests disposing at
once all birds showing symptoms
of any form of the disease.
Fowl paralysis investigations
conducted for several years by
State experiment stations and
the U. S. Department of Agri
culture have failed to reveal its
definite cause, but they have
shown that paralysis is only one
way this disease affects poultry.
It may affect the birds’ eyes,
cause marked changes in the
blood, thicken the long bones, or
cause tumorlike formations on
internal organs.
When the disease flares up, it
often kills as many as 50 percent
of the birds in the flock. Only
in rare cases does a bird com
pletely recover. The agent
points out that newly hatched
chicks are most susceptible with
their resistance to disease in
creasing with age. Generally,
however, the greatest number of
chickens become affected be
tween 4 and 10 months of age.
Women Drivers Careful Buyers
When a woman buys a motor car
she is far more critical than a man
of the car’s interior. Not only does
the woman automobile buyer de
mand beauty and durability in the
upholstery fabrics, she also insists
on material that will be easy on the
clothes and easy to clean.
Intellect Based on Chemistry
Scientists have found that the
water balance of the brain is inti
mately bound up with the acid base
equilibrium. The epileptic brain is
an alkaline brain, it was discovered.
Recent experiments at the Univer
sity of Maryland indicate there is
a “chemistry of human intelligence.’'
It was further learned that the dia
betic brain is an acid brain and, if
not balanced by proper treatment,
results In retarded mentation and
•tupor.
