ATLANTA, July 16. — Arthur J.
Burke, 49-year-old colonel in the U.
S. Marine -Corps, left recently on a
mission in memory of his dead wife
—a mission to Brazil to determine,
if possible, why a certain tribe of
Indians never have cancer.
These Indians are the Mundurucu
tribe. They live in the wild jungle
area, some 1500 miles inland from
Rio De Janiero.
Burks learned of this tribe of peo¬
ple who never have cancer after his
wife died, and he visited the Indians
last winter to make preparations for
a more exhaustive mission.
He wants to collect some of the
Indians' strange herbs and medi¬
cines; he wants to learn their habits;
he wants to learn about their diets.
He intends to bring all this infor¬
mation back and turn it over to can¬
cer experts in the hope that they can
determine what causes Mundurucu
Indians to be immune from cancer.
Colonel - Burks is giving all the
proceeds of his wife’s book, “I Die
Daily,” to the Memorial Hospital in
New York so that the hospital may
continue its research in cancer.

Pasture of C. V. ASH
tember This pasture was planted in Sep-
1946. Previous to planting,
heavy applications of lime, phosphate
and fertilizers had been applied
It was sown to Ladino clover,
meadow fescue and Rescue grass. It
was not grazed until the spring of
1947. The tall grass shown in the
picture is rescue grass, and is more
than waist high. Note that it is up
to the back of the cattle.
The growth of the clover and grass¬
es were exceedingly heavy, so much
so that these cattle have made but
small inroads on it during the spring
and summer. There is now (August)
sufficient grass and clover to sup¬
port these cattle until next spring.
The past winter was a little more
severe than the average winter, yet
there was no injury to these plants.
The pasture comprises about an
acre and is located on the Neel Gap
highway, line. near the Lumpkin County-
THE RIGHT KIND OF FLOOD
CONTROL
The Tennessee river used to be a
terror, too. But the T.V.A. went at
harnessing that river in a scientific
way . . . Rain in the T.V.A. basin
doesn’t have a chance to go wild. It
is controlled from the moment it falls
by soil conservation methods, contour
and strip farming, low-water dams,
and finally by the reservoirs, them¬
selves. — From an editorial in the
Tulsa Tribune.

1 WHITE COUNTY’S SOIL
! White County, Georgia, has good
j reason to be P roud of its 1- ecprd in
? 01 ’ conservation. Seven hundred of
1 ]ts 900 farmers are enlisted in that
movement—the highest proportion, it
is said, of any county in the United
States. Three hundred and fifty of
these mountain farmers have planted
Ladino clover and grasses to make
improved pastures, which can be
grazed for 10 to 11 months of the
year. The Cleveland Courier, a po¬
tent factor in this progress, an¬
nounces that a Ladino Clover Fes¬
tival will be held Aug. 22, at which
time farmers and businessmen from
all parts of northeast Georgia will
gather at Cleveland for common
counsel and good fellowship and to
hear an address by the chief of the
United States Soil Conservation
Service, Hugh H. Bennett.
It is movements like this that we
have to thank for the widening vic¬
tory over soil erosion, an enemy
which, if unchecked and unconquer¬
ed, would rob us of our richest ma¬
terial treasure. Long years of edu¬
cation and patient toil were required
to ent bring^ achievement. White county There to its pres¬
prejudices were old
to break down, old inertias
to overcome, old despairs to be con¬
verted into courage and faith. But
once the conserving and creative
ideas had gained a fair trial, they
moved steadily forward. One demon¬
stration after another convinced the
skeptical, as gullied hills were
clothed with trees and barren fields
grew green and fruitful with cover
crops.
Thus White county found the way
to a new prosperity; and its example,
repeated throughout Georgia and the
agricultural common country, is a key to our
salvation.—Editorial in
The Atlanta Journal, Aug. 4, 1947.

Messrs. Mayo and Terry, salesmen
for the Georgia Oil Company, made
a stop with me last Tuesday. They
had found me out through the me¬
dium of the newspapers. Mr. Terry
has a sister who is employed by the
Gainesville Daily Times, and related
to Ernest Terry.
We are as dry as a powder house
here. The ground hasn’t been wet in
nearly a month. The stormy Atlantic
is running over, but is doing us no
good now. We had a dry drizzle on
the first Dog day. but all signs fail
in dry weather. 1 believe a wet spell
is near. Our little crops look not ?o
good. The early crops are already
cut off. I have about an acre made
with a shovel that is clean and Mr.
Leaman Trusty gave me some cab¬
bage plants and they are as blue as
indigo. The most of my crop is very
late and dry weather is not hurting
it so bad. It is well shaded by pigeon
weeds, poor Joe and dewberry vines.
The weatheF is getting a little hot
but I intend to clean it out by
Loudsville campmeeting, for I’m
liable to get snake bit in fodder -
The late crops hardly ever hit the
seasons, but much better late than
never. It behooves us to make what
we can. Corn is now over $2 a bushel
but flour is off a little. It should be
cheap for in the U. S. A. there was
pi educed about 1 1 - bushels this year
more wheat than ever. So much of
our products are going to Europe
they will be high for some time.
