THOMAS JEFFERSON,
DEMOCRAT
On the 13th of this month, occurs I
the anniversary of the birth of J
Thomas Jefferson, in 1743.
It is well for the nation to remem
ber the author of the Declaration of J
Independence and the man who wrote I
the Statute for religious freedom in
Virginia and succeeded in establish-1
ing the University of Virginia. These
were the things for which he asked I
to be remembered, although the epi-j
taph that he wrote for his monument I
made no mention of the fact that he I
was twice the President of the United I
States.
Jefferson was a democrat who be-1
lieved in and cherished its ideals. In
cidentally, he regarded agriculture as I
the best occupation for men and the!
foundation of all other wealth. He J
was a scientific farmer in his day and
constantly endeavored to improve
methods and introduce new crops.
It might not be a bad idea fori
Americans, in this day to become ac
quainted with the life, works and!
writings of Thomas Jefferson, the
"Sage of Monticello." In his life and j
in his thoughts are lessons for us all.
HERE'S A GOOD IDEA!
This will sing the praises of the
officials and police of Danville, Vir
ginia, who have launched a campaign
against motorists who press the but
tons of their strident automobile
horns unnecessarily.
Policemen, it is reported, watch
especially for drivers caught in lines
of traffic who immediately blow their
horns the moment the green light
appears. Moreover, they keep an eye
on the impatient motorist who, when
he has nothing else to do, delights in
Masting the air with the full output
of his horn.
This is a good piece of work. We
hope the practice spreads throughout
the United States and that indiscrimi
nate users of automobile horns will
be fined until they leern better.
I FIGHTING YELLOW FEVER
The international health division
I of the Rockefeller Foundation has
vaccinated 1*068,252 persons in Bra
zil with a sew vaccine against yellow
I fever.
I This undertaking is interesting be
cause of the belief, a few years ago,
tld fla extermination of a mosquito
I carrier would wipe out the scourge.
However, about two years ago, the
Rockefeller Foundation investigators J
discovered, in die jungles of South |
I America, a mysterious and formerly Jl
unsuspected carrier of the <fiseaae,d
whose method of transmieaion re- I
I mains undertermined. Consequently [I
tiw vaccination of dm Brazilians has II
been undertaken aa a preventive mea- II
sure while research workers attempt II
I to locate the new carrier.

WOK RARELY jOLLS
Every one? in a while we hear
somebody comment upoa the feet that
somebody "worked himself to death."
As s matter of fart, If any, individ
uals have ever worked tfcecdaelvee to
death. Peoople get physically tired,
not by the exercise or exertion fan
volved, but rather through a lack of
interest in what they are doing. -4*
example, going bock to childhood is
the case of the little boy, too tired to
hoe his mother's garden, but not too
tired to play a game of football.
A boy, or a man, interested in
what he is undertaking, forgets fa
tigue. Of eourse, the thing can be
overdone, but it is rare. ,
POLITICAL OUTLOOK
While it is much too early for any
political prophet to risk his reputa
tion by predicting the outcome of the
presidential election in 1940, because
almost anything can. happen in the
year and a half that will elapse be
fore the American people go to the
polls, it is interesting to note that a
survey conducted by the American
Institute of Public Opinion, indicates
that at the present time a bare ma
jority of all voters with opinions say
they would like to see the Republicans
win the presidency.

N'OTHING takes the place of a good side dressing
with Natural Chilean Nitrate of Soda. The truth
of that statement is demonstrated every year on count
less farms throughout the South.
Side dress with Chilean Soda and give your crops a
natural lift just when they need it Weeds and grass
can't steal it from the plants. Use it regularly so your
crops can have full benefit of its natural fertiliaing and
soil improving qualities.
