SOU Years Ago In England
In the English homes three
lundred years ago pipes and to>acco
were put on the table afer
supper and smoking was genral
for they believed that smok-!
ng "dissipated the evil humours j
if the brain".
First European pipes were I
nade in England after a Virginia j
day model. Within 50 years, pipe j
moking had gained such popularly
that many England school j
hildren carried their pipes to
chool to receive proper instrucion
in smoking?Irish Tobacco!

| The object of this demonstra- j c
tion is to show how much more: ii
profitable it is to feed hogs free' y
of internal parasites as compared j
with hogs or pigs that are loaded j ti
dAiim Ufith WAVma j u
There are 8 different kinds of p
worms that live on the inside of, a
hogs for a period of their lives i b
and, of course, the hog ar pig | d
plays host to these worms while,ti
they are inside its body. The eggs'l'
that these worms lay are micro- j f
scopic, and most of the eggs are; h
covered with a double shell so r
that they are more or less im- v
mune to changes of temperature. [ p
Therefore, these eggs are capable! d
under average conditions of lay- a
ing around in mud holes and on d
the bare ground for a period of a
year or more, and then can be | tl
picked up by a pig and eaten and I a
will hatch in the pigs stomach]a

Fair Bluff Awaits
Market Openings
Three Big Warehouses Put '
In Readiness For The
Opening Thursday Of j
The 1939 Selling Season i
Fair Bluff's tobacco market is j
in complete readiness for the
market opening Thursday, Aug. i
3rd. The market's three ware- j
nouses and the town's merchants
and business houses are well prepared
to handle the increased
patronage of the tobacco season.
Fair Bluff has enjoyed a steady
growth in sales of tobacco for
the past several years. In 1937
the market sold approximately
2,700,000 and 1938 sold 3,857,394
pounds for an average of $23.48, j
which average topped all markets '
in the border belt. Townspeople
snd warehousemen are determined
to maintain this enviable record j
this season. Besides enjoying the j
distinction of leading the border
belt in highest average paid in
1938, Fair Bluff also enjoys the;
honor of being the oldest mar-1
ket in the border belt and the j
second oldest in the South Caro-!
ina belt. C. B. Townsend is!
3ales Supervisor.
POWELL WAREHOUSE
Powell warehouse is owned and j
average 157 pounds per pig which j
means that they had made a gain
3f 1.15 pounds per day per pig'
since weaning age. I do not con- j
aider that this gain since they
(vere weaned is near as good as it
ivould have been had they had
iccess to fish meal at all times j
is well as corn, or if they could
save been feed one-half fish meal I
ind one-half cotton seed meal, j
the two being thoroughly mixed j
together before putting in the |
feeder: that mixture to be fed in |
connection with corn.
A very good pasture for sum- j
ner grazing consists of soybeans'
Planted in rows. You will find
hat the hogs will eat the leaves j
tnd by using Biloxis, you will
'ind that they will, after being
grazed, put on another crop of'
eaves. In fact, they will put on
1 or 4 crops of leaves if not
rrazed too heavily at any one
:ime. If you are interested in confolling
worms in your hogs, your I
:ounty agent has bullentins in the j
>ffice treating on this subject.
