Miss Merle Hendrix, who has the dis
tinction of being Pickens county's most
successful tomato grower, has started
on her second year's club work in a
way that makes us believe that another
record is to be made. One-half of her
one-tenth acre was set in tomato plants
two weeks ago, just as the other half.
was sending forth a good stand of
0A "Kentucky Wonder" beans. "Truth is
stranger than fiction, " and we hope to
give you later a story in facts of this
bean patch which will recall the time
when you listened with wide open eyes,
parted lips and strained ears at ".Jack
and the Beanstalk. Miss Hendrix has
also had quite exceptional success in
growing tomato plants this spring.
From the amount of seed givon by the
home demonstrator she has Fuld 2,0001
plants besides setting her own patch.
Several hundred more -lants are on
hand. If other club members in the
county can or have done so well, let us
hear. "Speak up and 'specify' your
self." While we only mention this one
member of the club especially, all others
are busy, too, and are making splendid
headway.

Condemn Cheap Newspaper
'Ithica (N. Y.) News.
There is not much weeping over the
passing of the dIollar-a-year weekly
newspaper. Most readers appreciate
the fact that a decent living cannot be
made by the publisher under existing,
conditions. We honestly believe the
majority of intelligent people condemn
the publisher who is afraid to demand a
rdonable remuneration for his labor..

ER CENT FOR POSTAQI
A Confession
(James Edwin Kerr in Columbia State]
I wish I were a boy again
This grown-up life's a cheat;
I want to paddle thru the rain
I want; to go "bare feet."
I want to feel the funny grass
Come trickling thru my toes;
I hate this front of bluff and brass
I hate these "Sunday" clothes!
I wish I had my old big hat
And fishing rod-- I wish
That Johnnie Jones was here-hod drat!
How we two boys could fish!
I'd love to sit there by the creek
With no one 'round but him,
And play and prank it for a week,
And fish and fish and swim!
I wish I were a boy again
This grown-up life's a cheat;
I want to paddle in the rain
I want to go "bare feet!"
