P , sf I 7 I I cussing the matter later, Mr. Boyd ' laugnea ana.saia the crop had been worked only once.- Wet weather prevented the first workouts, and the beans grow in spite of it, and had made good. He sold all his beans at the cannery. One of the newest, and perhaps most modern cattle farms in Hay wood, is the T. L. Gwyn farm, on Highway 284. The barn is mod ern in every detail, built accord ing to specialists. The grounds are fenced into lots, which per mits segregation of cattle, , while a stream of cold water runs through each lot. The barn is equipped with electric lights. A new project just started on the Gwyn farm includes 125 pul lets. The -new 65-ton silo was com pleted recently at a cost of $226. The farm has 17 acres of crop land. The 33 fat steers in the lot lined up as if on parade as the tour drove onto the property. Of particular interest was the loading platform, which fits into one of the stall doors and permits loading of cattle on a truck direct from the barn. The cost was placed at 75 cents, by Perry Trull, mana ger of the farm. The platform was built of scrap lumber. The thoughts of 4,000 pounds of ice cold watermelons at the Joe Rose farm at Balsam hastened the tour to the last scheduled stop. "On top of the world" in the haze of the Balsams, the group saw prize Aberdeen-Angus cattle, against a background of a modern barn, and workmen pouring con crete on a 70-ton silo. Mr. Rose has already used a car of lime on his 80-acre farm and has another car on order, as he is preparing to put 65 acres in bluegrass. The barn is a show place, painted white, it brings about a sharp contrast from the sleek black cat tle. Every stall in the barn has running water. The center of interest centered around the prize bull, which won third prize at the International Livestock Show in Chicago last fall mm ! O' SSwl- 1 - I Mr. Rose has 2 car loads of steers which he is fattening for the Baltimore Steer Show. This will be the first time that any cattle south af the Mason and Dixon line, has been shown at the Baltimore show, and the fact that these cat tle are from Haywood is worth a lot, it was said. Of special interest was the calf creep, where shelled corn and mo- Need a Laxative? Take good old Ift a top-seller y all over ike Soutlt I A OKAY SON-LETS I SHOULD THINK tL.

This week I motored to Atlanta to meet my husband who arrived on the streamlined train that leaves Miami every third day in the afternoon and arrives in Atlan ta the next morning at 7:12 Cen tral time or 8:12 Atlanta time, or 9:12 Day Light Saving time. Af ter breakfast, my husband wanted to head straight for Balsam and Wayneaville .' in the mountains, where nature's air conditioning system really works. If Mrs. Wilda C. Prevost, Hazel wood, had not asked me to solicit lasses feed is kept for the calves and in such a manner that the cows cannot get to it. Mr. Rose takes the position that Haywood is the ideal place for breeding cattle, and then have them "finished" in the grain growing centers. . While the count was being made of those from each township, Mr. Lynn announced that Mr. Rose was workiiiff 100 ner cent with 4-H club boys in getting purebred stock in all sections of the county. - The AAA committeeman, D. J. Boyd, Sam Ferguson and Thurman Davis were presented to the crowd, with the explanation that it was through their committee that Hay wood farmers received $63,000 in soil conservation payments last year. A number of guests were pre sented, including A. L. Freedland er, president of the Dayton Rubber Manufacuring Company, who in vited all to attend the formal open ing of the new plant on the night of the 23rd. At the stroke of five, the 4,000 pounds of watermelons, which were donated by Joe Rose, went under the knife, and the "face washing" began, and the fifth annual farm tour came to a close. Wherever you saw a group of women, it was safe to bet that in the m-nter was Miss Mary Margaret Smith, home demonstration agent. While the tour this year wasn't designed so much for the women, thev Hid eet in many good point ers, and the association must have been profitable judging Irom the expressions on their faces during the day. . It had been a long day, but a most afisfnrtnrv tour in every way. Every one seemed pleased and well repaid for the time spent. One thing that was noticed In - i mnA o wrr nn every n waa that elaborate preparations are underway for ; the Livestock Show in September.

Federal Insurance Now Available On 1942 Vheat Crops Farmers of Haywood county can now get insurance on their 1942 wheat crop against all unavoidable hazards, such as drought, insects, fire, flood's, plant diseases, storms, hail, winds and other unexpected Over at Jo Rose's farm last week, I met up with the farm tour, I don't know much about cattle, especially Aberdeen-Angus the kind Rose had, but I liked being with the farmers and their families. They are the backbone of Hay wood county and I like the way the editors of this paper favors and fosters the farmers' interest where ever it it is possible for him to do so, for he realizes that what helps rural residents helps everyone. I am clH ta see the farmer really being appreciated, for they have had a touch row to hoe. Mr. Russ has liad a lot to do with the better farm program in Haywood county. Mr. and Mrs. Clyde De Shields, Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., are building a rustic cabin in Balsam Heights. George1 Bryson got the building contract. Mr. and Mrs. Everett Russell, Key West, Fla., are enjoying sev eral weeks in a cabin at Bulsam Heights. v Mrs. Oscar J. Beck returned with her brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Lindsey and her sister, Virginia Lindsey, to Ot tumwaj Iowa, for a visit. The Lindseys had been visiting friends and relatives at Balsam. On the motor trip up, they stopped at Anna, III., ta visit Mrs. Lindsey's mother and at Clarinda, Iowa, to visit a sister of Mrs. Beck's and the Lindseys. Mrs. Beck will return to Balsam in about three weeks. In a recent letter, Mrs. Beck wrote, "The thermometer is just 103." Mr. and Mrs. Mack Morris have returned from a week's visit to Mr. Morris' sister and her family at Hamilton,, Ohio. ' Dr. and Mrs. Gordon Ira, Jack sonville, Fla., are .enjoying' sev ernl weeks visit in the Burgman rub in. Three mtmbera of the Jackson county board of commissioners, Ash, Howell, and Fisher, were itt Balsam this week seeking to establish a higher elevation and lower mileage for property owners in this section. ": Mr. and Mrs. George Fenton and Mrs. Kaymond Crowder motorea to Washington last week and then to Raleigh where Mrs. Fenton un derwent a slight operation. After dismissal from the hospital in Ral eigh, Mrs. Fenton returned by train to Asheville and was brought on to Balsam in the car which was driven from Raleigh by Mrs. Crowder and Mr. Fenton. Mrs. Fenton's many friends at Balsam wish her a speedy recovery. Mr. and Mrs. J. Hubert Graves and family, Wabapso, Indian River County, Fla., have been spending some time 'in their recently built cabin, near the Balsam Fish Hatch eries. Mr. Graves is a member of the Florida legislature. , Mr. and Mrs. Will Geisler, New ark, N.J.r have returned to their The log cabin home of the Roses' has truly blossomed like a rose under Mrs. Rose's magic flair for color line. Most girls who marry men from other parts of the coun try forget about bringing their hus bands down to the old home place, but not Mrs. Rose. They have put a lot of money in their farm and home and it has helped this sec tion of North Carolina. If more Haywood county girls would fol low Mrs. Rose's example more of our land in these parts, would blossom like a rose! damages. This insurance is offered bv tht federal government through the AAA proeram. The insurance guarantees 75 per cent of normal yield as set up under the agricul tural conservation program. Any person growing wheat in 1942 who is interested in insurance on this crop is asked to call at the county agent's office on or before August the 30th. No ap plication for insurance will be taken afer that date. This type of insurance does not require cash outlay since a wheat note plan has been developed for paying this insurance. That is to say the coat of the insurance can be deducted from the 1942 larm payment. The cost of the wheat insurance will be for the most part for farm era of this county, one-half bushel of wheat per acre. This depends upon the market value-of wheat on July 25, 1942. Because butterflies symbolire im mortality in Chinese myth, says an article in the magazine Natural History, jade carvings of butterflies were often buried with the dead in old China. Why Wait?
