One family put a low dam a-
cross a draw, and had a splen-
did garden in the irrigated plot
below the dam.
Of the new vegetables tried
out by these gardeners, the Por-
ter tomato, Swiss chard, New
Zealand spinach, tendergreen,
curled endive, parsnips, salsify,
Canadian field peas, and Mexi-
can navy beans have proved
their worth.
Three tenant families had the
best gardens among the demon-
onstrators.

GAME ENDS TRAGICALLY
Gamsville. Ga.—In a game o''
“mad dog,” Oscar Savage, one of
the children, took a gun from a
wall rack to shoot the “ma< j
dog.” The gun discharged, strik-;
ing Bertie Mae Thomas, 8. fatal-
ly wounding her.
Conflicting voices have been
raised in behalf of the farmer
since the Supreme Court deliv-
ered its fatal thrust to the AAA
Naturally, one does not expect
-omplete agreement even among
experts. Suggestions are many
i and varied but there seems to
I be no reason to become excited
ver the adoption of any parti-
cular plan.
How to accomplish the pur-
pose and solve the problem of
distributing the benefit pay-
ments is what puzzles. Under
the AAA there was a flat per-
centage cut, with payments bas-
ed on a parity basis. The new
rogram of soil conservation
ould require, it seems, some
' thcr basis of payments but
just what it will be remains un-
certain until legislation is com-
pleted.

Bj Minnie Fisber Cunningham
Extension Service Editor
The new system of farm aid
which the Administration is a
dopting under the pressure of
the Supreme Court decision is
one that it intended to adopt
even if there had been no such
decision. The outlines were
I don’t know’ how newspap-
ers got into the world, and I
don’t think God does, for He
ain’t got nothing to say about
them in the Bible. I think the
Editor is the missing link we
read of, and stayed in the bush-
es after the flood and then
came out and wrote the thing
up, and has been here ever since.
If the Editor makes mistakes,
folks say he ought to be hung;
but if the doctor makes mis-
takes he buries them and people
don’t say nothing because they
can’t read and write Latin.
When the Editor makes mis-
takes there is a big law suit,
and swearing and a lot of fuss,
but if the doctor makes one
there is a funeral, cut flowers
and perfect silence. A doctor
can use a word a yard long with-
out him or anyone else know-!
ing what it means, but when
the Editor uses one he has to
spell it If the doctor goes to
see another man’s wife he
charges the man for it but if!
the Editor goes he gets a charge
of buckshot. Any college can
make doctors to order, but Edi-
tors have to be born”.—South-
ern Journal.

The gardening report for 1935
from Hemphill county sent in
by the home demonstration a-
gent, Miss Sadie Lee Oliver
makes interesting reading. The 1
goals for the year were for each
gardener to plant one perennial
vegetable such as asparagus;
plant one small fruit; and three
new vegetables never before
used by the family.

hard to keep in mind the lineup
of various farm organization-.

would have conditional benefit

perative need of some action to

I has been, or may be adopted, is
certain to be far from perfect
and errors in administration art
inevitable. Nevertheless, the

should have a generous measure
of support in order to give it an
adequate test in meeting the
needs of agriculture.

LAS DRINKING
DECREASED?
Sixteen years ago .the Eigh-
enth Amendment to the Unit-
’d States Constitution, the Pro-
ibition Amendment, becanu
effective. It was repealed on De
mber 5, 1933, largely by rea
son of argument that drinking
would decrease and violations of
be reduced.
The facts seem to raise some
doubt as to whether or not
drinking has decreased. Before
national prohibition there were
77,790 saloons whereas it is
estimated that now there arc
more than 200,000 retail out-
ets; in addition, beer and light
vines are sold in restaurants,
groceries, drug stores and other
.daces.
Deaths and accidents due to
drinking drivers and pedestians
e reached a high point. Dr.
eron W. Kilmer, police sur-
gc-on, of Hempstead, New York,
id a paper before the New
ork police chiefs in which he
.owed that the number of
■inking drivers in 1934 increase
d over the figures of 1933 elev-
:i times more than the number
cars.
Alcohol is preventing more
ople from getting Hfa insur-
ace thaan during prohibition,
fhe Northwestern Life Insur-
es Company reports an in-
of 149 per cent of alco-
lolic indulgence as a cause of
ejection among men and wo-
men under thirty years of age.
Applications in the spring of
1935 showed an increase of sev-
i.nty-four per cent in the pro-
portion of applicants using al-
cohol as compared with the
time period in 1932.
It was rather surprising re-
cently to read that more pris-
oners are in Federal prisons to-
for violating liquor laws
during prohibition. Dis
spirits released from bond
from around six million
lions during the last year of
prohibition to nearly 82,500,000
lions in 1935. The National
ic Federation last year told
the Senate Finance Committee
illegal selling was depriving; services were held,
federal and state governments ____________
f $300,000,000 in collectible
revenue.
Nor has the repeal of prohibi-
! ion reduced the amount of
£ irinking by women. Police rec-
ords for Washington show that
there were 986 arrests of wo-
men adults for intoxication dur-
ing the last dry year as against
1,525 such arrest for the wet
year ending June 30, 1935. Ar-
of women between the
of seventeen and twenty-
one, while few in number show
similar increase.
The manufacturers of alco-
r ic beverages have not dem-
rtrated themselves to be in
ested in temperance, as many
1 edicted prior to repeal. At
he convention of the United
Brewers Association in
ber a woman home econo-
editor gave the trade sug-
ions on how to increase the
of beer. She urged them
to overlook the younger set,
, “It is the teaching you
now for our younger genera-
n that is going to help you
se the percentage of beer
by women.
