Thursday, July 18, 1912.] THE CAROLINA UNION PARMER Page Eleveu Local Notes CEPHAS SPRING PICNIC. Last Thursday, July 11th, this Local gave their annual picnic at Mr. S. P. Cooper’s. Other locals and also the farmers were asked to join us and bring their wives and children. The result was that before 10:30 a large crowd had assembled in the lovely grove, which is an ideal place tor a picnic, and everyone seemed to be in just the humor to enjoy an outing. A table had been constructed to accommodate the entire crowd, and It fairly groaned beneath the weight of the many good things on it. There Was fresh lamb, shote, fried chicken, delicious country cured ham, home blade bread, pickles, salads, deviled aggs, etc. The sweets were as var ied and tempting as the first course The weather was pleasant and made It an ideal day to spend in the woods. There was plenty of lemonade and Ice water for everybody all day. A number of the prominent business nien of Henderson were there and none appeared to enjoy it more, and they agreed that Cephas Spring Union knew how to have an' up-to- date picnic. The speaker that was expected failed to come, and Mr. J. B. Hoover and Lawyer T. M. Pit- nian, of Henderson, made very good talks. Brother A would, after Primi tive custom, give the exhortation. Of | course I learned later it’s the light ning that kills, still it’s natural when we see the former to expect the lat ter. Well, I see the goat looking, so I’ll close. I would advise, if he gets this, you must see that he masticates it well, lest your office be minus a goat for the future. M. M. HALL.

Extract from write-up in Reliable Poultry Journal after watching the “Wonderful Work” of OCULIM for two years: At the Madison Square Garden Show this year the Hancock Inocu- latum Co., of Salem, Va., had a dis play booth and demonstrated the woith of “OCULUM.” The pres ident of the company took the writer up on one ot the balconies and showed him a game hen in coop No. 2340 which had won sec ond. At the Palace show two weeks before, this hen was nearly dead. Three doses of OCULUM were ad ministrated to her. At the Garden, OCULUM also cured a fine Dorking cockerel that had been imported from England and that “went oh” in the show. Already, in fact over a year ago, such good men as Messrs Hawkins, Latham, ?radley, Fishel, .tc., had un qualifiedly endoised OCULUM and this year the Hancock Inoculatum Co. came into the biggest show in America and began at once actually to cure the birds.
