Honey Crop Depends On Care of Workers (7?.i/ TV. C. Mancss, Asst. Co. Apt.) Now is the time of year to watch our boos closely if we want to get a large honey crop. The honey flow Is now on and It is up to us to give the bees a chance to store up hone;.;. There are two or three things of im portance for host results. First, we should have our bees in patent or modern hives with good comb founda tion. Second, the bees should be strong. Tt may be that the bees are weak and if so a new mated queen in troduced might be all that Is needed. The third thing which Is important Is to give the bees plenty of space as this helps to prevent swarming and en courages greater honey production. Supers with comb foundation should be kept on hand to place on the hive when needed. / 0. L.. Sams, extension college bee specialist, will be at the county agents office at D o’clock Thursday morning, and will be glad to talk with any farm ers Interested In bee culture. Several apiaries will also be inspected during the day. '( Here - There Over the County (J. A. Olazener, County Agent) W. D. Deaver*s winter hay demon stration is attracting the attention of many folks In the Davidson River and Glade Creek sections. Mr. Deaver has thirty-two big shocks of fine quality hay on his acre demonstration. Many who have seen It estimate that each shock will cure out 200 pounds of hay which would give him a yield of over three tons per acre. Mr. Deaver prepared this acre well last fall, fertilized It using a mixture of lime and phosphate at the rate of about 600 pounds per acre. He seed ed a mixture of 2 bushels of wheat, one bu.shel of barley and 26 pounds of vetch, using a grain drill to distribute the fertilizer and sow the seed. Mr. Deaver will follow the winter hay crop with soybeans for hay, seed ing them at the rate of 2 bushels per acre and will use about 600 pounds of basic slag. He should get at least two tons of soybean hay from tills same acre. Following the soybeans he plans *o sow It to a winter cover crop of vetch and rye or crimson clover and during the winter Mr. Deaver plans to broadcast ten tone of stable manure, all of which will be turned next spring and. the ground planted to row crops either com or vegetables. Find A Footing VONWO L. GUBGKR, Republican nominee for Congress, cdviscs buy ing mountain land tor homes. .His article below is very timely. My admonition to you, you my own folks of the mountain? of the West, Is to take the first dollars you can save and go buy you a little place some where, near to 3ome mountain town of course, If you can get It. the price Is cheap now. Taxes will not always eat us up; some day we will not only get the $1,000.00, the whole of It, homo owner, occupied exemption you voted for in 1936, but more. Let's all get back again on the land; me the first. I love It so. But it may be that running around, I can help us all, we will know some day, maybe In the fall. Anyway, please let me point out that the "Holy Bible" in the very be ginning says: Genesis, Chapter 1. Verse 1 "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." Read the rest of the chapter and you will see. God then created cattle, fish and fowl and all; afterwards man: and In same chapter gave man, you and me, dominion over them all. Then read the whole chapter and see how many times earth is used, and may I point out that earth is next to Heaven In all creation. Get on the ground Is my craving, and again let me recommend it to all of you. Forry departure from It has been my way. If I had made my bread by “the sweat of my brow” up to now. my physical form would not so much be in a bow. Anyway, let’s use our hearts, muscles and brawn; our minds will rest then, till break of dawn. Vonno L. Gudger. Two Major Disasters Recorded This Week Two major disasters of the week, bringing death to many and destruc tion of valuable property, formed head line front page news in the daily press throughout the country. The Atlanta hotel fire, which occur red early Monday morning, resulted in the death toll of 33 persons trapped in the big five-story Terminal hotel and total destruction of the building. The origin of the fire is as yet undetermin ed, though the theory has been ex pressed by officials that a short clr suit or defective mechanism in the ex haust fan of the hotel restaurant kitchen may have started the fire. The second tragical disaster of the; week was the Lockleed transport plane, missing since Monday, which was Are You Honest ? You should be, at least with your wife! Bring her to The Canteen oc casionally, she will enjoy the rest, and the family will enjoy the good food we serve. CANTEEN Clyde Hamilton, Prop. found Wednesday near Saugus, GaUt, with the nine on board all dead and the plane demolished and burned. The plane was a new twin-motored Lock leed, which left Los Angeles Monday afternoon for St. Paul, Minn., to be delivered to Its purchaser, the North west Airlines company. The passen nr, wen mainly offlctale of the alr cnft ooopeny, and members of their famines. Investigators had not reach ed the scene of the accident Wednes day afternoon, but It Is thought that cause of the tragedy was due to thick fog and poor visibility In that vicinity of the mountains. __ To My Friends In Transylvania Due to the severe and critical illness of my wife, I fear that it will be impossible for me to call on my | friends in Transylvania County during the Primary Campaign, and. trust that this message through the County Paper will explain my failure to do so. N I feel that the good people of Transylvania County know me well enough to know mt I ha\e their interests at heart, and that I always stand ready and willing to serve them to the very utmost as their Representative in Congress. I am counting on my friends in the Democratic party of Transylvania to join with those of the other counties in the Eleventh District to come to my aid at this time, and for your trust in me I shall return faith ful performance as your Congressman.
