Shelby perhaps has more clubs, and social organizations for wom en per capita than any other town or city in the country. In spite of which few more democratic towns may be found. Which, nil will agree, Is rather unusual. A young lady of the town—and in telling her age it is sufficient to say that she is now a member of such clubs ns the Tuesday After?" noon bridge club and the Contem porary Book club—noting recently that girls from 10 to 12- years Of age in one of the local schools had formed a social club, known as the "Jinks blub," opined that "It is the same old Shelby." "The first club I belonged to," she said, "when I was around 10 or 12 years, was the D. A, U. P. club, which meant, 'Do As You Please The next was the 'Hobnob', and so on. They just do It here." And it seems as If they do. Which is only natural, ns the same .In stinct, which moves little girls to play house and wear mother's dresses (except that there's little difference in the length these days) and little boys to wear dad's hat and play doctor, also causes the young girls do wish to follow moth er in Her club nnd social move ments LAST WEEK ONE OP THE FEL LOWS on the street informed the department that a school boy ask ed him' on February 12 what the flags were flying for, and declared that when told In honor of Lin coln’s birthday the youth wanted tp know Just who Lincoln was. Somehow or other we discounted that story, or sprinkled it with saw, SO-to speak. But since Hint yam was related one of the city school teachers vouches for another Incident, which, Indicates. thnt chil dren In this fast mot in g age caw very little about hiktory. The teacher along about the birth anniversary ot Robert E, Lee was using the observance of the date in convenient style to hear her his tory class, “Who was Lee?'1 she asked. “Robert E.

J IN RELATING A .)OKE LAST week this eolyum said that when a man has many wives or a wom an has many husbands that is polygamy. And along came the ever alert, paragrpher of the Greensboro News to cast a ray of light upon, our ignorance by in forming .that when a woman has many husbands "that Is polyan dry." Sobelt, and since it is men tioned wc suppose that is where we got the modern word tor the word that, was modern 10 years ago) ■’Poltyanna,” Tor a jwlyandrous woman must be more or less opti mistic, or Pollyamiaisli. Incidentally', wo noticed that a Sunday feature writer in the Greensboro News recently termed the present pettlng-partv, rolled hose, thinly-dressed age as the Brazen Age, whereas we have long labored under the Impression that the Brazen age followed the Silver Age. somewhere along about 250 to 400 A. D. So there! SOME YEARS BACK THIS department, mentioned the fact that a certain number of bales of cot ton were picked inside the Shelby city limits that year, and it wasn't a week until some of the large papers were giving us that "Hee haw, country town' stuff. But despite the attention we drew to our city farmers we cannot re frain from passing on the Infor mation that a sawmill Is now be ing operated within the corporate limits. Such being the case here this de partment might make a good ref eree for the perpetual belt-letting out contest between Charlotte and Winston-Salem. THE BIG SPORTING WRITERS say that the main trouble with Young Stribltng, tire Georgia box er. is that he hasn't the fighting instinct, or Isn't mean enough, so to speak Our tip would be for Stribllng's manager to get in touch with Ar Unrr Sides. Shelb/ . m tUhntakej. Sides was going to fight "Kid" Hombuckle on his program here Saturday night, but the "Kid" de veloped the fighting instinct so rapidly that lie couldn't wait and last Sunday he knocked out him a man with a stick of cordwood. Many Southern boxing fans be coming tried of Sharkey's boasting may want that green stick of cord wood shipped down to Miami.

PUTNAM Dahlia Grower, Itlark Mountain. North C arolina. | Dahlia bulbs should be planted after danger of frost Is over—in April or May. Plant in rows three or four feet apart and in hills about three or four feet apart, one bulb to the hill. I find better re sults. in digging holes from 10 to 15 inches in depth, then putting in a little bone meal -and some rich dirt. Plant the bulb and cover with eight to ten inches. of rich soil. A little manure mixed this way seems to keep moisture sup plied to the plants all summer. This method would be too slow in planting a large number of bulbs, but the rows could be opened deep with a plow I find by planting the bulbs deep there are more I bulbs to the hill. I have a large | number of clumps containing more than 100 bulbs each. A slake, live tret" in neignt, should be driven at a distance of I 10 inches from the bulb at planting time, and when the plant is 18 inches high it should be tied to the stake, because as they rrow they are easily broken and blown down. It is possible to begin with dahlias at a small cost by buying some bulbs and exchanging for other kinds and colors the following year. In 1920 a friend gave me about 12 bulbs. One hill came up as a re sult of my planting these bulbs. The , next year my friend moved away, leaving a few hills of dahlias which I looked after. In the fall I gath ered the bulbs and started anew' in 1924 with 100 bulbs. I exchanged ( bulbs with my neighbors for colors II did not have. I have only bought $5,000 worth of bulbs and now have over 50 kinds and colors, from the tiny Pom Poms to the large deco rative Cactus and Show. I have over 10,000 bulbs and plan to plant more than $1,000 worth of Pom Poms and Cactus Decorative this year. When frost has killed the plants, cut the stalks oil near the top ot the ground, and with a shovel or spade lift out the roots and- leave them in the sun for a few hours to dry. Leave all the dirt on the clump that will stick to them, and store in a cool cellar, dumps upside down. Do not cover the clumps until they dry for a week or so, and. as the weather gets colder, cover with dirt. The clumps can be stored either In barrels or boxes if you do not havp a cellar, or they can be hilled outside by covering so they won't ’gfotj wet.

This discovery carries no implicit * tiori that for countless uses women folk have been wasting time in over washing. for the tests were applied to a product of the machine age, a washing machine. The discovery was a by-product of the main pur pose, which was to determine what soaps possess five greatest cleansing properties Dr. F. H. Rhodes, professor of in dustrial and chemical engineering who directed the experiments, found that olive oil soaps, which include pure car-tiles, are the best cleansers Standard types of soap flakes were ranged a close second. Dr. Rhodes said he found surprisingly little dif ference in the cleansing powers of pure soaps. The period of time of greatest cleansing varied with type of ma chine and slae of the batch of clothes but as a rule it was 7 1-2 to 15 minutes. After that tire mater ials in the wash tended to absorb a grey hue from dirt washing back into them. ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE. Having qualifid as administrator of the estate of T. VV.

I have found it to be a fine medicine to give them for colds and indigestion. I have three little girls, and when I see one of them fretful and ‘droopy* in the morning, I begin treating her with a course of Black-Draught. It is not long until she is lively and well again. I make a tea of It and give it to the children, as they take it best that way. “I take Elack-Draught for con stipation and indigestion.

December 28th, ’928 Mr. T. Ross Alexander, Statesville, N. C. Dear Mr. Alexander: In answering your letter about my cotton crop this year will say that I made a very fine yield considering the fact that we had a poor season, as I picked 175 bales of lint cotton from ,140 acres. For a good many years I lest a lot of time shopping around, trying to see where I could buy the cheapest fertilizer, and made about }/i of a hale of cotton to the acre. I found out a few years ago that I was on the wrong track and changed my method of trying to make money growing cotton by using the cheapest fertilizer, and instead, tried to figure out how cheap I could grow cptton. I tested several brands of fertilizer with the result that I am growing about a bale and one-third to the acre now, where I used to grow three-fourths of a bale, but I did not do this with cheap fertilizer. My increase in yield per acre has come since I began using "AA QUALITY” Cotton Fer tilizer. While this brand of fertilizer costs more than most other brands of fertilizer, the continued use of same has enabled me to cut the cost of my production per pound of cotton almost in half. In addition to these facts, the mechanical condition of "AA QUALITY” Fertilizer is always fine. Yours truly, W. C. EDWARDS. j ' Greensboro No. 1—228
