Odum’s Jersey
Wins Medal
Columbus, O.—Triple Louisox
ford Queen a registered Jersey
cow owned by Howard W. Odum
of Chapel Hill, N. C., has com
pleted a production record of 9.531
pounds milk and 530 pounds but
terfat which has qualified fie for
the Silver Medal award of The
American Jersey Cattle Club,
with headquarters in Columbus,
1 Ohio.
The record of Triple Louisox
ford Qdeen was made on 305 day
actual production at the age of 3
years and 5 months. All her tests
were verified by both the Uni
| versity of North Carolina and The
American Jersey Cattle Club.
In compiling this record she
produced more than two and one
half times as much butterfat as
the average dairy cow in the
United States.
She has also been officially
classified for type by The Ameri

NOT SINGULAR,
BUT PLURAL
Travelers in the vicinity of Lake
Waccamaw may be fascinated to
hear natives talk of the hurrah
bushes In Green Swamp, but they
will look in^vain for this botanical
specimen. ■ ’
When a lumberman is working
in the marsh, and if he encounters
a dense growth of” gallberries,
myrtle,.. bays, laurel, bamobo,
huckleberry, they lose their indi
vidualism and automatically all
become hurrah bushes.
Hence, there is no such thing as
a single hurrah bush, but there
are, instead, unbearable millions
of them.
-o
COMPLIMENT.
If you travel by mule through
the Great Smokies (which we do
.not recommend), and if a Chero
kee Indian offers your mount
some corn, you should feel highly
complimented. This was a ges
ture reserved only for the most
distinguished guests of the tribe.
The staple of the Crerokee diet is
corn—prepared in' a score of ways
—and they believe that com was
given by the Great Spirit only as
food for me?n.
