W&ile the Congressman is strongly in favor of making potatoes a. basic commodity under the Agri- ctiltural Adjustment Act, and is ready to lead the fight for that pur pose, he 'stated that th most vital thinjj for the present was the cur tailment and regulation of the 1933 crop. He thinks that there is great opposition among the growers to the proposed "marketings agreement now being offered for signatures 'nd be lieves that it "ought to be vitafly ,a mended.

The year 1934 has been a record breaker. Here's the story; of "last week's catch: I went to the barn to find a hens nest and I heard a hen say "tut-tut" I recognized her signal of danger and peeped in the dark stable and 1 I ' rattle snake in a coil What was I to do? No weapon and no man in sight, so I used my hog calling a bility on the two men on the place. The hired man soon loomed in sight. Keeping my eyes on the snake I dis patched the hired man for my bet ter half and a gun, - as nothing but a gun would get the snake. The gun was soo nforthcoming and the shot went true but two heads instead oi one began to strike at everything in sight A pitch fork soon pinned him to the ground and such music these two rattlers rattled out. The music lasted until their life blood ebbed away. The two big five foot rattlers were quickly dispatched to Belhaven for I like to, as the old darkies say, "kill am, show urn and tell um about it". ' . ... , Yes times have changed and in stead of killing one every season Fm killing four or five. I'm wondering if Vjicle Sam can't devise some plan to reduce this surplus crop or rattle snakes. If so, I'm ready to sign. Robert or "Gus" Gaylord who is manager of Simmon3 Store in A wendaw. S. C. writes that he has read with interest the snake stories published in the Times. And he has one too. "Gus" writes that he was sitting in front of his store one Sun day afternoon recently, scanning the Sunday paper. He happened to look down aid at close range came a 4 1-2 foot black snake fronij unjder the store. He yelled for help and Gilman Robert of the CCC, came to bis res cue and killed t&e snalta. Gus says he doesn't like snakes and if help hadn't been forth coming quickly he probably wouldn't have stopped running until he reached Belhaven.
