Two boys were crossing a bridge. One boy thought the other was stingy. To teach him a lesson, he held up a coin, tossed it into the river, and said, '‘See?" A little further on they met a poor blind man. The second boy took a coin from his pocket and put it into th< blind man’s hand, i hen, turning to his churn, he said, ‘‘See?

TFIE GOVERNOR’S RADIO ADDRESS On Monday evening of this week governor Gardner gave one of the finest addresses yet made by the governor. His theme was that em phasized most during his adminis tration —live at home. But to this he added a word of encouragement. The depression, said he, ended in Sept., ’SI; the panic set in but it also came 1 to an end in February. ( He begged the people of North t Carolina to invest their money in r, North Carolina. He said that at just ‘.his time North Carolina bonds and eal estate were our two best invest rents; the bonds are worth par any where. a good sized farm can be lugbt todav for what a 50x100 foot Jllll p. is would ha”e cost in 1926.

Some Alabama paper has endorsed 1 iin because "H*- is practically the only living American of prominence who could sit down and talk compati bly with Washington, Jefferson, Madi son and Monroe, if those immortal li ' Uee* ia ( gi tit-., were to return foi :* visit." Deep thinking! Sound logic! Incon trovertible argument! I may be—l am the very poorest politician voting; but I don’t inind confessing that the alcove, “reasoning” sounds silly to me. I honestly don’t believe there’s enough likelihood of those intellectu al giants “coming back for a party issue to be made of having some one elected to talk to them. Anyway, if they come, they’d probably he too hor rified for words. We have an unusual experience at our house. On Tuesday of last week came a flock <>f wax-wings to the big holly tree just outside my kitchen door. 1 believe wax-wings are called cedar-birds around here. At any rate, there they were in almost incredible numbers, feasting on the holly ber ries. Each bird was as neat as a pin, with (‘very feather in place, every crest was worn at the jauntiest pos sible angle, and every tail showed its scalloped border of yellow as the own er flitted from twig to twig. They seemed to feed in squads, with a sen tinel posted in a plum tree near by. As soon as one lot fed for awhile and left another group of birds took pos- j session of the tree. All day they ate. 1 leaving before sunset, and coming next morning by eight o’clock. And by Thursday night the holly tree j showed the effects of such unbounded ! hospitality. It had been stripped of berries, except for a few branches that almost touch the kitchen window. The birds were afraid to go there, and sat in nearby trees frankly expressing their opinion of a man who would build his house that near their cafe teria. Hut on Saturday they began feeding from those limbs also. They would peer in at the window, look ing for all the world as if they wore black masks. I had never before noticed so closely the peculiar ap pearance given by that band of jet black nocross the eyes and at the side of the head. By Saturday night the birds had ceased to be a novelty. I wondered why they did not go on with their migra tion They had completely spoiled the looks of our tree, so far as berries ■were concerned And 1 was no longer interested in their chatter. It was another case oi outstaying one s wel come. I began to remember the fact that those birds had not sung one song since coming to my tree. And 1 never did appreciate a guest who made it plain that all he came for was to eat and rest. When they departed on Tuesday of this week 1 was more than willing to speed the parting guest. And, yet, I am not sorry they came, even if the holly tree is now as bare as was Mo ther Hubbard’s cupboard. j And now here is that list ot bache | lors. 1 have had help in making it, I and hereby express my appreciation of it. Should a name be omitted, it can be published later, if desired. And should there be one in the list who is not yet twenty-one, that, too, is a mistake. We have done our best. No names have come in from outsulo our immediate community. I feel as I imagine a boy scout does when he has done his good deed for the day. If any girl is single around (here after this, it will not be my fault. Un conclusion I can only remind them of the old poem which advises: “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again."

C„ March 21, 1932. N. B. Ye Bachelors When the would-be good offices of the editor’s wife have failed, been ig nored or spurned, the editor has two more possible solutions to this age long problem. We cannot promise any better success than the wife’s pl m offers- hut what did she prom ise? We give them as an additional hopeful (ncouragement to the lone ly and the lovely. Here they arc: A Kentucky legislator proposed that all the bachelors in that state be rounded up at the end of each year so that the unmarried girls can take their pick. Then if this fails 11 1> this: The director of a Chicago civic organization reports that more than 100,000 lonely women sought husbands through matrimonial agen cies in the United States in 1931. Our sympathy naturally goes out to the men in this onslaught of the ladies, so we suggest to them a pos > ihle way out. As a leap year foil, I four Ashland, W is., youths have form ic 1 what they term “The Buzzard i club” and have shaved their heads |to make them less attractive to pro tposals. Some of our fascinating and charming young bachelors may have to resort to such extreme measures to escape these modern sirens who are being assisted so zalously by one who knows exactly how to expertly ! put through a leap year proposal. Bachelor friend, the maids will get you if you-don’t-look-out! Two items in the press are quite sufficient without comment on what lengths the liquor lovers will go: ! New York hotel and restaurant men are threatening to boycott merchants who do not back them in their fight j for liquor. And here is the other: The navy’s : ranking officer is tryimr to blame j the Lindbergh baby kidnapping onj prohibition. TI KKF.Y RAISING. The first ten to twelve weeks after hitching is the critical time with young turkeys. Once safely by this period the birds grow well and if given reasonable care will return a pi ofit. Raising poults is not so greatly different from raising chicks, except that more space is required for the young turkeys. “Newly hatched poults do not learn to eat so early as baby chicks and few will begin to notice teed until at least 36 hours old. So instead of throwing the delicate poult a hunk of corn dough made with clear water and containing little food, give it a good palatable feed of chick starter or hard boiled egg to which has been added part of the egg shell, finely pulverized, and a few corn bread crumbs. The hunk of dough is likely to upset digestion and cause a sour c-rop The other kind of feed contains protein, carbohydrate and fat to compose a balanced ration. Resistance to disease can be in creased by breeding from strong, un related birds and by the use of good feeds and good feeding methods. The only insurance the turkey car. take against blackhead is to keep the poults in partial confinement for the first ten or twelve weeks. As they grow older, they must have more space'. The portable type of brooder house is bests for poults and this house should he placed in strictly fresh soil and moved every eight or ten days. A low wire around the house will keep the young turkeys from ranging too far away. After the house has been moved six times, the poults may be transferred to a larger and practically free range where they can feed ove-r the stubble fields, cow pas tures or wooded land. As fall approaches, the- poults must be given more feed. All they can eat at least twice each day is a good practice. CARE AFTER PLANTING TREES ANI) SHRUBS Do not leave the soil heaped up around newly planted trees, shrubs or evergreens Rather leave a depres sion around the plant, cupping the soil, so to speak, so it will receive and retain the water supplied by rainfall rather than letting this run off aw*ay from the plant. Trees set out on lawns should not have the grass or sod grow tight up to the tree. A space about the tree should be left open to the size of the hole dug when planting the tree, and the top soil should be kept cultivated all sum-J mer just as one would cultivate m garden. The depression will for catching and holding the wjJw, and the cultivation will greatly Aid in j fl PPO ♦ m n* ——J !

XNTI.NG DAYS AHEAD Make haste, for there are busy day - '* ahead. The sun is shining a bit warmer and is staying with us a little longer each day. Almost be fore you know it. you will find your self busy putting your garden in shape. 1 he lure of the outdoors will claim you completely and. as you work the soft soil, delighting in the smell and feel of the newly turned earth, yon will find little time for planning. Do your planting at once. Decide what you want to do with your garden and grounds this year and then, when it comes time to don your work clothes, you will have the satisfaction of \ nowing that every effort brings you closer to completion of a carefully thought-out garden Planning makes the successful gar din as truly as planning makes for he > uccessfully built house. Probably Right. Mr. Y ounghub was declaiming to his wife. "Next to you, my dear, work is my greatest blessing. In fact, if I didn t have work, I wouldn’t have you.” Bookkeeper: “Are you troubled with dyspepsia?” Stenog: “Only when I try to spell it.” More gas stations than banks am Hi n r robbed. Which shows where the money is. A citizen is a man who demands •v t ‘ or roads, bigger schools, a nevr postoffice—and lower taxes. —Nash- ville Southern lumberman.
