No pleasure Is comparable the standing upon the vantage- ground of truth.—Francis Bacon A Little Chip From Hickory Hill The rains came! There are no words to express our appre¬ ciation of the wonderful rains we had yesterday. Gardens, fields and yards were suffering, this morning everything is holding ip its head and looking so bright and green they seem to be say¬ ing ‘Thank you, oh lovely rain •" Have you seen "Unconquered?” If you haven’t you should. We saw it Sunday night and ii made me realize all over again what a price those people paid for the land you and I live on today, enjoying freedom and all of the things there are on this old earth to enjoy. What a price, What a price! I dreamed the other night of you Little shanty in old Shanty Town; There was a moon, all gold and round, It was so peaceful, not a sound! There was a rose bush a twin¬ ing, About your columns white; I stood on the front veranda and Watched the silent night. A gentle breeze stirred the pines Then the very stars seemed to sing, As I stood there in my dream I knew it was a long ago spring. The little house was empty, Those who lived there had moved away; There was a lonely ache in my heart, Weeping, I remembered an¬ other day- Ranger’s Report FIRES May 1—45 acres burned on Dan Massengale and Harrison property in Slygo.

USE OF DDT POWDER Sprinkling of DDT powder in places where it will be covered and out of sight is a good safe way of stopping many house¬ hold insect pests before they get a start. Both the housewife and handy p.’.an who does repairs can very well keep a supply of DDT pow¬ der on hand to use whenever the chance arises. Typical ex¬ amples of times and places for DDT dusting are: In replacing linoleum for kitch- n floors; dust lightly in cracks n the floor and an area six inch¬ 's or more near the baseboard When carpets are up for clean¬ ing, dust with DDT before re¬ laying them. If baseboards are loose, use an insect powder gun to distribute DDT in crevices be¬ fore replacing or re-nailing Cracks likely to be hospitable to Insects may be dusted before painting or repainting. See that there is DDT under the shields end around pipes where plumb ing goes through the floor o r wall. Used in this way DDT is effect¬ ive for a long time. Bed bug ■•prays have proved effective for at least a year in careful tests. Sheltered from sunlight, DDT is likely to last long. Covered and out of sight and touch, it is not hazardous to pets and children. w Smokey Says: V f .. burned over words esn s', erosion, gr.d st’ r i f-. | which ain't so .or /L New Salem News Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Adkins of Dayton Ohio are visiting their parents, Mr. and Mrs. K.

If there is DDT present when the insect arrives the chances are excellent that the pest will not live to multiply its kind. Cattle sprayed with DDT will make more effective use of the food consumed. 50^ wettable DDT can be bought- This ma¬ terial is to be mixed with wa¬ ter. Barns and outhouses should be sprayed also to destroy flies. It is also very effective as a spray on screen doors and window's.
