rr Nobody’s Business By Gee McGee For Sale: 7 Farms. As I have possibly stated before, apart from being afflicted with an ingrowing toe nail, I own a few farms, and as I am too busy trying to make a decent living, I let my land out to tenants. I have several fine tenants and then I have several ather tenants. I have one tenant in particular vho can fix anything in the world about an old Ford from grinding ier valves and adjusting a tail-light -o pulling lire motor and re-plac lng a main bearing, but believe It or not, he can’t tighten a nut on a plow handle, or tack a plank'ln the floor of his front piazza. Why, he can't even use a lap-link. I paid this fine man a visit the other day. He and his son had an | old Ford apiece under my 2 sheds. My farming implements, consisting of a mower, a rake, 4 plow-stocks, and a 2-horse wagon, were out in the weather. The younguns had my check lines made into a sW.ng under the old shade tree. And he broke the handles out of my 6 cotton hoes last fall and used them to knock cotton-stalks with. The gears and bridles for (he mules were scattered about the front of the barn so’s the stock could walk on them and not get their SPECIAL THE “thrill” of the picture!

If you are X tempted to use “any old” fertilizer be cause it costs less, don’t do itt Most of all, your crops need nitrogen—natural nitrogen— and that means Chilean Nitrate. I’ve arranged for a big supply of Chilean Ni trate in new 100 lb. bags. It’s cheaper than it has been for years. Better get your order in now, so you won’t be sorry later on. CHILEAN NITRATE Is original “Soda” —the natural nitrogen fertilizer that has been used for a hundred years in the South with best results. It increases yield and qual ity of every crop you grow. It’s indispensable as a side or top dressing to insure against loss. And when you order your fertilizer, be sure to say Chilean Nitrate to your dealer. That one word, “Chilean,” is your protection and your dealer’s too. Chilean means the real thing —the nitrate all crop champions use. Remem ber the two kinds—Original Chilean (Crystal line) and Champion Brand (Granulated) both natural nitrate. LOWEST PRICE in years NEW 100-lb.

A few days ago, I saddled up my | 19 and 28 Ford coop, an ddrove to! a semi-distant city on business and! pleasure bent. As I neared the place of my intended rendezvous—I began to read signs which said—“Stop at the Ru^dorf. 300 rooms, 300 baths. 2 dollars and up." Well, that hotel read like a mighty good hotel, so I says to myself, says I—"Guess I'll stop there. Am little afraid to try out one of their 2-dol lar rooms, but there coulddent be anything wrong with their 3-doi lar rooms." So I got myself a 3-dol ■!«r room, Speaking or pea soup, you should have spent a night in that room The steam fumes from the kitchen came right through the window into my douboir. You see, it was so hot in that, place, l had to keep the j window histed all the time. I could tell from the way those odors odored just exactly what they were going to have for supper. (The looking ; glass in the bureau made me think \ T was crying when I gazed Into it j for the first time so's I could see how to comb my bald head.) T missed it exactly one vegetable and two meats. I said collards, but it was spinach, and I guessed roast chicken and ham, but it was fried liver and hamburger. I smelt the toast scorch and tasted the onions that went Into the hamburger pan, and I knew the coffee was too weak after the secondwhiff permeated my > bathroom. i Nearly everything was its bad or der in the room. The bath-tub had no stopper, the hot water ran out of the cold water spout, the lava tory leaked and the bed was made up backwards. After they got through with supper (but it was dinner down in the dining room), the janitor chunked up the fire in the furnace, and he almost smoked me out. I had a manuscript in my pocket that I needed to have corrected, so I called on the public stenographer —fAge, 47; height, 6-12; weight, 99; hair, false; teeth, ditto; painted up, yes;; perfumed, only by nature.)

The name. Shelby, und •.r.3 name Cleveland, are great names ill North Carolina. These names have a glori ous history. Back In 1780 on October 7th a man whose name was Isaac Shelby and another man whose name was Benjamin Cle'”‘'md faced a crisis at Kings Mountain These noble men stood nt the breach d urine a crisis in our oat tie for liberty. They did not flinch, but went straight forward into bat'le for a cause. These men and their comrades won the day. Another noble man in this crisis was John Sevier. He left two sons dead on that historic battlefield. One was just 16 and the other was 18. Itaac Shelby became the first Governor of Kentucky. John Sevier uecrmc the first governor of Tennessee. Shelby’s name has r living m mo ment in the noble little city of Shel by. Benjamin Cleveland has a living monument in the far-famed couty of Clcvelad. A crisis in the life of a school ■.Imply means that the people ot the section which it serves have tn op portunity to stand by It and stand1 for it. That was an inspiring scene a few days ago at the First Baptist church of Shelby when all the Bap tist pastors of tilts territory .5*'-id In a circle with hands ani nco-ts united saying, "We are ;n the breach for the life of Bolling iprlngr college. We are behind it w a Man It means too much to hundreds ct young people of our section, ft shall not die." These pastors have iitgh' the spirit of Isaac Shelby and lb o Jamln Cleveland. A young woman in Cleveland county just a few days ago gave $30. An old Scotch farmer gave $X’. paying up his contenlal pledge In full. Another Cleveland county farm er gave $30, paying his pledge In full. The spirit of ghelby and C Ic eland still lives in Cleveland crun ty.

Note that Camels are completely en closed in an outer transparent cover of moisture-proof cellophane and sealed air-tight at every point. We call this outer shell the Humidor Pack. It differs from the ordinary cello phane pack and while it is egg-shell thin, it means a lot in terms of cigarette enjoyment. It means, for instance, that evapora tion is checkmated and that Salt The Humidor Pack insure* that. It prevents the fine tobaccos of Camels from drying out and losing any of their delightful flavor. Aside from cheap tobacco* two fac tors in a cigarette can mar the smoker’s pleasure: Fine particles of peppery dust if left in the tobacco by inefficient cleaning methods sting and irritate delicate throat membrane. Dry tobacco, robbed of its natural moisture by scorching or by evapora tion gives off a hot smoke that burns LaKe tity can now have as good Camels as Winston Salem. •While Camels are made of a blend of the choicest Turk ish and mellowest domestic tobaccos, it is highly impor tant, if you are to get full benefit of 25 HAY CHART OF CIGARETTE MOISTURE I.OSS 4 Avrrugr 50 packages h Unwrap p*cil hrliifr Gliulnt Wrapped PacLa^r Regular Cellophane Wrapped IWIup Camel Humidor ftek Moisture proof Cello phene—Seeled Air Tight I ■>«»*_ I iftt-bnrgh I'rstin^ L alio rat on Report \°13(W73-Jani?.193l The Pittsburgh Testing Laboratory chart above graphically shows you that only the Camel Humidor Pack delivers cigarettes to you in prime condition the throat with every inhalation.

Cherk ? difference younelt It is-i* y simple matter to check the difference between Humidor Packed Camels and other ordinary dry cigarettes. First of all you can feel the difference as you roll the cigarettes between your fingers. Camels are full-bodied and pliable. A dry cigarette crumbles under pressure and sheds tobacco. If you will hold a cigarette to each ear and roll them with your fingers you can actually hear the difference. The real test of course is to smoke them. And here’s where the new Humidor Pack proves a real blessing to the smoker. As you inhale the cool, fragrant smoke from a Camel you get all the mildness and magic of the fine tobaccos of which it is blended. But when you draw in the hot smoke from a dried cigarette see how flat and brackish it is by comparison and how harsh it is to your throat. If you are a regular Camel smoker you have already noticed what proper condition of the cigarette means. But if you haven’t tried Camels in the new Humidor Pack you have a new adventure with Lady Nicotine in store.
