To be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.? Romans 8:6. To find fault is easy, to do better may be difficult.?Plutarch. VFNARI.E LAWSON. BELOVED CITIZEN Few men have come to Warrenton and within such a short period- of time become as much beloved as was A. Venable Lawson, victim of a tragic accident onj Sunday afternoon. Eight years ago he came here from his home in South Boston, Va., and his conduct in his daily walk of life was such that when news reached here on Monday morning that he had been drowned in Alabama the previous afternoon citizens in every walk of life felt that they had suffered a personal loss. The world in most cases is prone to judge a man by his financial success, but success or failure here has little to do with the valuation of such men as was Venable Lawson. He was above that kind of valuation. Highly respected because he was of that type that wins respect, it was not this that brought him so close to our citizens. He reached the heart because he was lovable, and he stayed there because he was gentle, clean and fine.. Venable Lawson no longer walks with us. His soul has entered another realm, but the spirit of the man lives in the hearts of thost: who knew him, and his influence, like all that is good and beautiful in this world, lives on. We reproduce below and make a part of this editorial tribute to the life of Mr. Lawson, an editorial from The South Boston News, published at South Boston, Va., his birthplace and home before coming to Warrenton: a. Venable lawson "Scare had he need to cast his pride Or slough the dross of earth; E'en as he trod that day to God So walked he from his birth? In simpleness and gentleness And honor and clean mirth." South Boston has had its. share of tragedy and more. Shock after shock has fallen on the hearts of us until we are numb with paintoo numb to fully realize this, our last great loss, A. Venable Lawson. And yetIn a sense we have not lost Venable Lawson. Tight locked in our hearts are memories that we cannot lose?memories of companionship, of friendship, pure and unalloyed, of a hand outstretched to help, of a smile that had a healing force only those whom he has helped could know. Few of us have the gift he had. Truly he could "turn aside to help the weak without ostentation." The world is better because he lived in it. We are better for having known him. There was something beautiful about his modesty. He thought so little about himself that he never for a moment realized what his life meant to those who knew him. And, grim fact, it took stark tragedy for us too to realize what ne meant to us. "A new commandment give I unto you?that ye love the l-ord thy God. . . . And the second is like unto it?that ye love thy neighbor 83 thyself." Somehow we shall never think of these words without remembering Venable Lawson.

Warren ton, North Carolina tmwm????n:??m?ircreramsmt 1 MOSTLY 1 PERSONAL By BIGNALL JONES A pall of gloom was cast over Warrenton on Monday upon receipt, of a wire from Alabama that Venable Lawson was drowned on Sunday. A fine citizen, the head of a ; lovely family that added much to the life of the Warrenton, Venable Lawson lived in the hearts of our citizens. He was the pal of Mack, Shorty, Dick, Graham and Cy, but he was my friend, too. I knew him I for years, under all Kind 01 concutions) at play, at work, in conversations that reveal the true character and worth of a man. He was clean, courteous, gentle, a lover of sports, an excellent sportsman. To me the world has been a brighter, more beautiful place because I have been privileged to know such men as Venable Lawson. I feel a personal loss in his untimely death, but mixed with that feeling is a sense that I am richer because 1 have known him. I was glad to receive a letter from Jim Kerr this week. Jim is now working with the Brown & Williamson Tobacco Company in San Francisco, Calif. He and I used to pal around quite a bit while he was principal of the John Graham High School a few years ago. It will come as good news to his friends at Warrenton that he expects to arrive here next week to spend some time with his parents, Congress- ! man and Mrs. John H. Kerr. "Dear Mr. Jones: "I am quite sorry that you misinterpreted my intentions in send- J ing you the joke you referred to in ' the last Warren Record. "I was not 'standing aloof criticising,' nor was I saying that poli ticians are a 'bunch of hypocrits' I merely tried to pass on a joke which seemed to me pretty good and at which I do not think officeholders would have taken offense. "Perhaps you thought the communication was from a politician. As a matter of fact, it was not even 'he' who sent it. It was a lady.

It was quite natural for the above correspondent to have reach ed the conclusion that I was reproving""iier in my article of last week, inasmuch as she contributed the article that proved to be the theme of this column at that time. However, the custom of wisecracking at politicians is too wide spread for the article to have had any personal application. Incidentally, a gentleman called up the office to know if I had reference to him. I smiled as I read a telegram from Dawson Alston on Sundry morning to his father, Mr. Van Alston, announcing the birth of a daughter the night before in Milwaukee, Wis. Dawson had added to his announcement, "Wife, baby and myself doing fine." ^ k Afton Items $ Mrs. Joe Lewis Pinnell of Newport News spent tne week end "Witn ner parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. ,W. Burroughs.

After following the rainbow through several rooms she finally came to the end where she found a basket full of many useful gifts. After this the hostess served ice cream and cake. Farm Questions And Answers Question?Should breeding cockerels be selected now for use next faU? Answer?The first point to consider is whether there is a need for new blood in the flock. Unless a definite system of breeding has been esablished it is best to introduce new blood from a known satisfactory source every three years. If new blood is not necessary then go ahead and select the large boned, early maturing and early feathering cockerels from your home flock. Be sure that only birds of high vitality are selected. Select about twice as many cockerels as needed as this will allow for late culling. . Question?How can I cure the scours that is prevalent in my herd jof calves? I Answer?When the first symptoms appear the individual calf should be isolated and the milk feed reduced at least one-half. Legume hay should be replaced by grass hay until the troubledisappears. Give the calf a dose of one to three tablespoons full of castor oil, depending upon the age of the calf, mixed in a pint of fresh milk Following this a teaspoonful of u mixture composed of one part salol and two parts each of subnitrate of bismuth and bicarbonate of soda should be given and repeated at six hour intervals until the diarrhea is checked. This trouble is caused by improper feeding such as over-feeding, using dirty pails or boxesj irragular feeding or feeding milk too rich in fat. These should be checked and corrected before putting the calf back on the regular diet. Question?How much feed will it take to "harden" out 75 pound pigs for the early fall market? Answer?This depends upon the condition of the animal at start of feeding period. The accepted formula requires 35 pounds of fish meil or tankage, 160 pounds of com meal, 22 pounds of wheat shorts and 220 pounds of com for a twelve weeks feeding period. Rations for different weight animals and for snort or long ieeairig periuus are contained in Extension Circular 143 which may be secured from the Agricultural Editor at State College upon request.

Contracted Acreage foi ] Cotton and tobacco growers who mj are under reduction contracts are be being cautioned by Charles A. pi, Sheffield of State College to make th careful measurements of their f0: planted and rented acres. ac He is also urging them to designate which acres have been set Y aside from cotton or tobacco production so that the committeemen who will make a check of the acreage can do so as rapidly as possible. w< It will be to the farmers' advan- ar tage, he said, to have their produc- * tion as nearly in line as possible. *! Growers who have planted more than their contracts allow will be *r' required to reduce their acreage or 111 cancel their contracts and refund any rental payments they have re- be ceived. 8e After the committeemen have siJ made their check, government suvveyois will make a recheck of a few farms chosen at random to deter- e(3 mine the accuracy with which the first check was made. Corrections cr will be made when neoessary. er The check will also be made to di determine whether the growers ac have retired from production land which is of good average fertility and whether they have planted or. cr the rented acres any crops which Ci are prohibited under the contracts, wi Farmers who are not complying j pr with their contracts in every way at will be given a chance to do so.

Due to drought conditions in the iddle west, the contracts have en modified so that a grower can int forage and feed crops on all e rented acres. He may also grow r sale such crops on non-rented res, says Sheffield. ret Time To Plant Needed Feed Crops Since the drought in the middle ;st has igreatly reduced the nount of hay and feed crops, the jricultural Adjustment Adminisation has authorized the giowth such crops on all land withdrawn om the production of basic crops ider reduction contracts. There is yet time to plant soylans, sorghum, corn, Sudan grass, rman millet, and a few other hilar crops, it was pointed out by san I. O. Schaub at State College. The amount of fertilization needl will vary with the type and contion of the soil and the kind of op planted, but he advised grows to fertilize sufficiently to proice good crops. County agents can Ivise individual farmers what ferization is necessary. With the curtailment of the feed ops out west, he said, any North irolina grower who buys his feed ill have to pay exorbitantly high ices. Under the circumstances, I farmers should produce enough ed for their own livestock.
