Mrs. Oglesby, 92, Recalls Old Days In Virginia In Birmingham News Story The daily Birmingham, Alt. News recently published for its leaders a feature story about Mrs. Nellie Oglesby, 92. a former Buck ingham county resident now liv ing at Bessemer, Ala. The writer of the feature story twines his yarn about Mrs. Ogles by's fondness for recalling so happily the days in Old Virginia. Ife writes of her memories: "For instance there is the old- ■ eight room farm home in Buck ingham county, where she was; bom tnd lived happily with a large family. She proudly exhibits the picture of the home with its typical Southern surrounding veranda. She tells hcwr it housed the father, a Confederate veteran, the mother who made the rule* for a Godly Baptist home, six brothers and five sisters. Parents Natives Her father was Simeon Allen, of Cumberltnd county, and hoi mother. Martha Dunnavant Al len. of Buckingham county. They lived at Enonville from before the Civil War until their deaths in 1910 and 1913. They had cele brated their 68th wedding anni versary before the first one passed on. Mrs. Nellie Oglesby, subject of the Birmingham paper's feature story, was third from the young est child In her Buckingham days, she was widely known a ; a writing teacher and she still writes a beautiful hand. Many years a widow now, M;.. Ogelsby lives alone in Bessemer, but has a host of friends who en joy looking after her. She is a go-'d conversationist and she lis tens to the radio. "Nobody was ever so blessed as I am with friends." she says. Friends Help Now Hei friends perform such serv ices for her as putting in the coal and kindling, marketing, looking after the laundry and such thine She stays pretty well to her bed room. but keeps a paddle at the side of the house so friends can knock for admission When she want-, some one in the neighbor hood for t favor, she rings a large dinner bell on the front porch. Still the cultured Virginia lady despite her 92 yeats. Mrs Oglesby lives above the adversities of de clining years that distress many fi Iks. She remembers so happily the former years. Other memories are of her girl hood. with many girl friends and beaux. Also, the visit to Alabama for a visit with her brother, Eg bert. who was a railroad man. She met tiie man who was to become her husband on this visit. Married In 1897 A memory that brings a twinkle is that of her wedding in Enon Baptist Church, Enonville, in 1897. Friends from three counties • ■ame to the wedding, she recalls. There had never been a prettier wedding in that part of Virginia, with six couples oi bridesmaids and groomsmen The busiest years were during her married life as wife to her husband-farmer at Green Pond, near Bessemer. Mr. Ogiesbv was a leading Presbyterian elder and he worked by his side in the church. Her saddest backward glance is of the death of her husband 30 rears ago. At his death she gave their home and 40 aeres of land to the church at Green Pond a: a memorial to Mr. Oglesby. After the death of her husband she moved to Bessemer, where she has been since. Gone now are father, mother, brothers. . at t . husband. •'That is what life hr.tigs u# to at 92." ■tie comments now But even though they're si! gone, ttie as s'nations were fine and sweet and memorv of the good life has a way of keeping faith and spirit bright — even at 92 Curdsville News.

"Period Furniture." Shi’ said. "The term, 'period furniture.' is suggestive of the attempt, developed since 1850. to classify various types of antique furniture in groups according to the period ol their origin and popularity. These groups are named either after the monarchs. English or French, under whom given styles oi furniture flourish ed. or after the designers of given styles. Colonial Furniture "American colonial furniture is classified in two «ays. Since the joloniul period exit tided over nearly a century ann a half, pro ductions of that Mini are some times designated by the name of the English soveuign during whose reign the English cabinet makers produced Inc examples which American workmen follow ed. “The more convenient classifi cation recognizes tlnec more or less distinct colonial periods—the early primitive penou. represent cd *"a 1 v ijv ri'p'. ' .- or ‘ liuirii which were made by local car penters to supply individual needs. Such pieces arc distinctly utilitarian and owe whatever beauty they may posses to the sincerity and innate artistry of the workman, rather than to studied effort. A later period, showing conscious copying of the styles of the gieat . English cabinet makers, Chippendale. Heppclwhitc. and olheis. by pro fessional American cabinet mak ers. In this period much of struc tural strength was sacrified for grace, elegance, and lightness of contour and ornament. The third period is the American Empire period, noted lor the coldness and formality of design, and often poor taste, characteristic of the Empire Period in Europe, but re lieved by some American pieces, especially the sofas and certain chairs of excellent workmanship." Nine Groups Mrs. Elliott staled that she had found period furniture to be classified in nine groups. She gave die names and dates of these groups and then gave a short description ot each witn emphasis on those periods or styles which are most likely to be •een m homes today.

Second In Scries Primary Teeth Are Important Factors In Normal, Healthy Child Development (Editor's Note: American Dental Association sponsored the fifth annual National Chil dren's Dental Health Day, Mon day, Feb. 2, to focus public attention on the need for more dental health education and eare for children. The Farm Tille Herald, in co-operation with Farmville dentists, pre sents the second in a series of educational articles about den tal health for children.) Jane. 18. graduated w ith honors from a mid-western nigh school, last June. He^ intelligence quo tient qualified her for college. But Jane decided to take a job as a scrubwoman in a downtown of fice building at night. She said she didn't have the funds for col lege. even though scholarships were hers for the asking. The real reason for this flight from reality was Jane's embar rassment over her appearance. She didn't want people to see her because she had a severe defor mity of the teeth. They were out of position. Her cuspids Jutted out high in the gums, so they looked like fangs. Her incisors or front teeth were widely separated. Her upper jaw protruded over her lower. Jane's condition is known den tally as “malocclusion,'' meaning irregularities in tooth position. A survey by the Chicago Board of Health showed almost half of Chicago's school children had the condition in varying degrees. One of the chief causes for it, the survey found, was premature loss of primary, or first, teeth. The survey concluded that a ' dis eased primary tooth can be as hazardous as a diseased perma nent tooth.” Here is what happens when a primary tooth comes out too early becaaise of decay: teeth on either side of the gap tend to drift together and close the va cant space. A few years later, when the permanent tooth Is ready to come in, there isn’t room for it where nature intended. It may. therefore, push its way through high up in the gums. With teeth erupting in odd po sitions in a growing .law, the child's facial symmetry may change decidedly. In this tele vision era. when society is more conscious of the value of beau tiful teeth than ever before, this can be a personal tragedy. No one knows how much .juve nile delinquency stems from the rebellion of a dentally deformed voungster against a society that .tjeerihgly called him "rabbit face." or "Andy Gump," or "drip ping teeth." Social workers believe there are hundreds of girls like Jane who gave up life coals at an earlv age and retreated from the world. The story of primary teeth neg lect doesn't end with a lost per sonality. Well-functioning teeth are a. necessary part of a child's digestive apparatus, particularly I in a period of rapid growth and i development. With the capacity | to chew affected, proper foods j often cannot be eaten. Neglected primary teeth can be I a factory, too. in gum disease so ! prevalent in later life.

' Xeus For Veterans VA Sounds GI Insurance Warning Hundreds of Vir„.nia veterans stand to lose thousands of dol lars In lapsed OI tcnn life insur ance during 1953, unless they reinstate and renew ihosc policies before the expiration date of their policies. In making this announcement. Veterans Administration said the policies involved arc lapsed term National Service Lift Insurance 'NSLIi that were issued to two groups of World War II and post World War II veterans in this area. The first group were World ! War II veterans who took out NSLI policies while they were in service during the year 1945. The second group were World War II and post-World War II veterans who took out term policies while they were in service during 1948. The first group had policies with 8-year terms to run. and the sec ond group's policies had terms of 5 sears, both of them expiring juring tfie year 1953. In Virginia, approximately 24. 500 veterans are aifected and stand to lose about $195,000,000. If veterans in both groups do not wish to lose altogefher the insur ance coverage under these poli cies. they must reinstate them before the policies expire. VA said. Otherwise, unuer present laws, they will not be eligible for further GI life insurance. Policies may be reinstated by applying to a Veterans Adminis tration office. If tiic policy has been lapsed for three months, the veteran must pass a physical examination. The payment of i wo monthly premiums is also re quired. President Eisenhower has or dered the Bureau of Labor Statis tics to revive, until June 30. its old cost-of-living index and to publish it along with the revised index which will be the govern ment's official index for public policy purposes. The Service of "Mr. 4%” is reflected in Jefferson Standard’s * 46th Annual Report MORE PROTECTION FOR MORE PEOPLE. Jefferson Standard during the past year continued to grow in stature and in usefulness to the insuring public. New life insurance placed by the company's lieldmen in 1952 ex ceeded $153 million, a 209r increase over 1951. Insurance in force reached a new high of $1,136,600,000. a gain of $97 Million for the year. Today Jefferson Standard is providing a measure of financial security for more than 350,000 policyholders in 29 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Payments to policyholders and beneficiaries during the year just closed amounted to $13,500,000, bringing total payments since organization of the company to $226 Million. Assets ot the company increased by more than $28 Million to a year-end total of $324,852,407. Investment earnings were maintained at a high level throughout the year, and JefTcrson Standard for the sixteenth Near leads all major life insurance companies in rate of interest earned on investments. "WHO IS MR. 4%?" Mr. 4% represents the Jefferson Standard Jefferson Standard, now guaranteeing 2':rc on policies currently issued, has never paid less than 4',' on policy proceeds left on deposit to provide income.

Farmviilc, Virginia 1 altered as second-class matter at the postoffice at Farmville, Virginia, under An of Congress of March 1R~9 Member . Virginia Press Association Member National Editorial Association _Fill DAY, FKRKl'ARV 20, 195:;_ Farmville And Industry P*ARM YILLE has made steady, substantial industrial growth during the past twelve years. Interesting statistics gather ed by the Herald in an editorial of-March 19-11 point to the fact which too often is overlooked. In 1921, from records and estimates we find 252 employees in industrial work with an annual payroll of $112,699. In 19-11, says the editorial, eleven industries employed 925 with an annual payroll of $575,000. In 1952, ten firms employed 797 with an an nual payroll of $1,626,600. These figures are approximate and are used only to show the trend. Manufactured products include shoes, building materials or millwork. pack ing boxes, garments, dairy products, and printing and laundry services. No addition al industry has been established in Farm ville during the past twelve-year period, however a steady growth and development are indicated in those well established. Another important observation is the diver sied nature of the local industries. One or more additional manufacturing plants would complement the present plants and attract additional local labor, thereby furnishing additional payroll for the trade channels. Industry is attracted to locations best suited for its particular operation. Trans portation. water supply, availability of a suitable site and employees, either trained or callable of training, are major considera tions. Many other factors enter into the selection of a location, some being peculiar to the type of product. Each of these fac tors is considered in competition with those to be found at other locations. Selection of locations is highly competitive. Quite often the locality is expected to provide some assistance. Some years ago when industry began to move south, many towns vied with each other in extravagant offers. Firms seeking new locations now are looking more carefully at the natural advantages, secondarily considering local offers of financial nature. However, manu facturers quite often desire locally provid ed housing for their employees, or financi al backing in securing a suitable building. The Herald suggests that the business men interested in locating additional in dustry in Farmville organize a development company with a constituted board of direo tors and officers. Sufficient capital could be paid in or pledged to promote and develop the local potentialities. An inform al group, the Chamber of Commerce or town officials can and have served as point of contact for industrial survey and promotion but an organization constituted for the purpose, with financial standing is ulti mately necessary to effect the location of a plant. Past experience will bear this out. A practical step would be to organize the development company first and then pro mote the advantages of Farmville. One or two well-adapted industrial plants would be desirable. You Asked For It EVIDENT EISENHOWER has ordered sharp restrictions dn tin* spending authority of all departments and agencies in tile government. This was his first major effort to balance the budget and reduce un necessary expense. In taking this action the President is fulfilling his campaign pledges. Reduction of federal employees is going to hurt somebody. Those who are cut off . will have to find employment in private in dustry. possibly come back home and find their places. Demand for clerks, steno graphers ami secretaries is active in most communities and it shouldn't be too diffi cult for private business to .absorb efficient employees whose government service is dis coid imied. Actually, Budget Director jloscph M. Dodge, sent out the notifications to the de partment and agency chiefs. The letter of instructions is reported to have contained orders for a curb on the hiring of new em ployees and limitations on new construction projects. The instructions also prohibit government units from increasing their ex penditures above the .January level. Dodge also reportedly asked for sugges tions as to revisions downward in the hud get proposed by former President Truman. That budget contained expenditures of $78,600,000,000. Mr. Truman estimated receipts at about $10,000,000,000 less than that amount, thus indicating a budget de ficit of approximately ten billion dollars. The Eisenhower move to balance the budget, and cut Federal expenditures, is a weldame move and one which has been long awaited by the American public. One can only hope it is the first of a number of major efforts to cut out deadwood, elimi nate unnecessary spending and reduce the level of expenditures generally. It is the hope of most Americans that the efficiency of their government can be increased by a reduction in the number of employes. It is well known that some feather-bedding in government where employees have actually become so numerous as to impede efficiency of operations. While we assume that Mr. Truman was completely sincere in his belief that the budget could not be cut further, we cannot accept a theory which presumes the vast multitudes of government workers to be absolutely essential to the last man. We hope to see thousands of jobs eliminated and billions of dollars saved, and any lesser result from the Eisenhower Administration w ill In' a disappointment. ' Mi \\ ay Back (Ji'iuTalissimo Cliiany Kai-shek recent l.v responded to President Kisenhower’s de neutralization of Formosa with a statement reiterating his determination to reyain < hina. The leader of Nationalist ('hina called the Kisenhovver decision "not only judicious, but militarily and morally sound." The most interest iny part of Kai-shek’s statement was his announcement that the Chinese Nationalists would not seek the in fantry of any other nation in the effort to reyain < hina. In addition to other assur ances. he said: "I would like to assure our friends abroad that the Republic of China will not ask for aid in yround forces from any nation to achieve our yoal." It. oi course, remains to lie seen whether Kai-shek, with the limited manpower at Ids command on Formosa, can build and lead an army strony enouyh to rout tin- Chi nese Communists w no will, no doubt, be aided by Russia in any renewal ot Chinese • civil war. However, the intention not to use foreign infantry, is all-important, and Pile can only hope that it will be adhered 1". even il it means delay in the regaining of China by the Nationalists. There are methods which the United States can adopt which would help the Chi nese, and which might bring about long term pressure to enable the Nationalists to reconquer their homeland. These methods consist of naval blockade, and other pres sures. both economic and political. (Jen-: eralissimo Kai-shek, in the meantime, could stage commando raids on the coast, deudop a larger Chinese underground force and encourage all Chinese to throw off the shackles of Communist domination. This process might conceivably require some years before the full eflects would be felt. However, it is superior to the alter-1 native, which would require United Nations troops to help Kai-shek do the job, and is the logical approach to the Chinese prob lem. The goal of the Eisenhower Administra tion. regarding China, 'should he, and ap parently is, to do everything short of in voicing l nited States soldiers in the de veloping battle for China.

Answers—Plus! I.csson for February 22, 1953 AN February 22 we celebrate the birthday of a man who tit is said) claimed he could not tell a lie That is an exaggeration. Al most any man can tell a lie if he tries hard enough. But even if this were such a wonderful world that literally nobody could tell a lie, it might still not be the ideal world. For what is most important is not choking back the falsehoods, important as that is. The big thing is to tell the truth. And it is even harder to tell the truth and tell it right, than to keep from lying Truth can be told m a dull way so that no one listens to it If truth is worth telling it ought to be pointed. —and when we say ' point ed" we mean that three ways. * * * Pointed At— For one thing, truth may as well not be told at all if it is nut pointed at somebody. There's no use tell ing your deaf old grandmother about the circus; she's nut going rhere is nr use telling a small baby to keep his face c 1 e an There's no use giving a lecture on space-heating to an audience of Hot t e n t o t s; they "r e hot enough already. You’re talking to the wrong people. ,,r- foreman Truth ought to be fitted for. and pointed toward, the people who need it The Master-Teacher him self showed how this is done Much of Jesus’ most vital teaching was I directed to what we would call "hecklers " Sometimes their qucs- j tions were meant to trip him up ’ 'like the three recorded m Mat thew 22) Sometime they were j asked from mere curiosity, .scene times they were* desperate gi p- ; mgs for light But whale vor the ! motive. Jesus ah-, ays guv< them answers—plus, lie would take ad vantage of the moment to push m a pointed truth If only preachers and Sunday school teachei s and politicians too would spend more time answering the questions peo ple do ask. instead of questions they don’t ask! Sharp Enough To Stick There is another sense in which truth, to be effective must be paint ed. It lias to be the opposite of dull. Now there are situations where truth can be dull, and wel come. If you are looking up in the encyclopaedia the population of North Dakota, or trying to find out what niacin is. you don't want to be amused, startled or entertained. You just want plain fact, plainly stated. Professors and other studi ous people arc trained to absorb truth no matter how dully it is presented. It's a poor student w ho can t learn as much from a dry professor as from a witty one. But most human situations are not in class-rooms. Truth that is not dry. ought not to sound dry. Truth that's worth remembering ought to be told in such a w ay that it can't be forgotten. Again, our Lord's teaching was of this sort. He never told a dull truth, and he never told his bright truth in a dull way. His sayings are all point ed; they have a way of sticking in the mind What he says flashes in the eye like sunlight on steel. There was no one around taking notes wh' ii Jesus spoke His say ings are remembered not because somebody had a ;.d notebook but because what hr said, stuck. “To The Point" What do wc mean by a point less jokr or a pointless remark? Wc mean, of course, that the thing was not worth saying, however true it may have been. Wc want people to speak to the point. If we are going to listen to them wc w ant them to be saying something that is worth saying, something we'll be worse off for not knowing. Now again Jesus' teaching was | pointed truth in this sense. It was relevant truth, it was truth dealing with specific situations. He came I "down to brass tacks’’ as we say His teachings did not float away up in the clouds, they came down to earth and walked there. They ' had to do with people's real prob lems. And what we shall find out. if wc study Jesus’ teachings faith- ; fully, is they deal with our prob lems today too.

There are no clouds above my head, The azure blue's the sky. 1 gaze on the sparkling water That ripples there until The ripples all have vanished and The water's calm and still. 1 can only see the surface And have no way to know If the ripples on the surface Affect the depths below. And about our lives, 1 wonder If ripples there once start, They affect the surface only And fail to stir the heart. Whether ripples on the water Affect the depths below, Is a thing I cannot answer. I have no way to know. That the stream of Life when rippled, Oft leaves an inward strain: Tho calm and still its face may be In heart it brings us pain. I know because I have met you. Then from you had to part; And the ripples on Life’s surface Lie buried in my heart. This heart you stirred will never be Jlist as it was. again ; Tho your presence gave me pleasure. Your going brought me pain. 1 do not blame you for it now Because this had to be. I shall cherish you forever Deep in my memory. My lift enjoyed the ripples when They played upon its face, But scars within my heart The years can ne'er erase. The world sees only tne surface And has no way to know About the joys and t he sadness Down in our hearts below. That the ripples on Life’s surface Affect the heart below, I answer ves, and that's because I have a way to know. 1.. I >.

Birdie May Bau h By Ted Kesting • 'I he one big question in the mind of a man or boy who is thinking cl buying a boat in kit form is. ''Can I put it. together so I'll have a good boat? Willard Crandall, expert on all matters concerning boating, says of course vou ran if you're at all handy with tools. Just the same, there are some "howevers." You've got to pick a model of good de sign. one suited to your water ways. your load and your motor or y u may not have anything worth putting together. Don't make you first attempt anything as large as an outboard cruiser. Practice with a pram will give you fundamental knowledge that can pay off if you want to tackle a big boat later. Practically all kit boats are made of sheet plywood For mak ing assembly easy, there's nothin t like plywood. It makes a good boat for most small boats there is no better material. Plywood has one drawback, however—it does not take abra si n too well. If you want to keep your boat always tied at a pier, or K you are going to drag it on shallow bottoms or pebbly beach 's. usually it'll be best to pass up .he plywood and kit idea. A true round-bottom b at can't be built from sheet plywood. It won't bend that way. That's why you don't find canoe kits on the market: that's why you can’t buy an old-time "resort type " rowboat ;ii kit form. But you can buv. in a k::. an outboard runabout that, acts much like the standard ready-made roundbottoms tha.t are widely sold. There isn't much vmuul to the bottom, but neither is there to the standard outboard roundbottem It wouldn't have the speed the public wants, if there were. To gel down to it. with kit boats is with all others, most important :s how rood the design is—all lines of the design That's more im portant often than whether it Double Check I heard and saw where the Democrats were trying to pass a tut in taxes to the Republicans up in Washington and the Ad ministration don't want it. And tlie Democrats are gi ttnig togeth er in all sorts ol conclaves for tlie good of the party an. for the good of the county—and that the Republicans can't produce the •uighful atrocities that they charged the Democrats with dur ing tlie great campaign of 1952. WHO ever thought L.ey could?— Folks just fooled themselves. Now we are on that long long trail- and it's a winding. Lincoln days and Jackson days Bond-a montli and if n you don't watch 'em they'll be back together again. So mixed you can't oil one from tother. As the skunk said when the wind changed—now it all comes back to me. One guy writ in saying . . be kind to birds—the dove brings iicace: the slo:k. he brings exemptions—both tax and draft. At least the White House is still open to Democrats .... mighty handy fellers .... any body want ing any advice. Thanks for reading J. Marvin Brown Bleeding Wounds Do Not Endanger Our Friendly Trees Around February and tradition al St. Valentine's Day. freedom has more than its quota of "bleeding hearts " That is because! some arboreal friends, notably maples and to leaser extent birches, have a profuse sap flow from bark wounds. But tree friends needn't be alarmed. This is a seasonal phenomenon. Actually, the bleed ing. which on cold days may form spectacular "icicles ' ordinarily is not harmful to the tries. Amateur tree docs frequently wsualize this display as comparable to the loss of blood in humans. Nothing could be further from the truth. Invariably, howevei. appeals for help flood tree experts in all parts of the country. Woined home o\\ ners are reassured in short order that everything is as nature intended. Loss of sap seldom perils the trees. Dramatic pioot is the thriv ing maple sugar industry in Ver mont. New Hampshire and other sections where native maples thrive. Ai nually. these trees are taliped for their luscious product. Some nave been giving of then sap for more than a century with no apparent adverse effect. In bleeding, the sap so spec tacularly spilled consists mainly of water. This is easily replaced by the root system. Sugar and some minerals are included in the run-off. But normally healthy trees continue to thrive. Florence was the capital of Italy for the country s first six yeacs as a kingdom classes as round.

THE CHURCH UD THE COMMUNITY The Church on the corner or at the crossroads stands for three of the most important phases of community life—the social, intellectual and spirit ual development Of its people. _ Within its hallowed precincts the rich and the poor, the high and the low meet on common ground and learn to share each other’s joys and sorrows. It is the social center of the community, where people learn to mingle and cooperate and be friendly. The accumulated knowledge of past ages was pre served and transmitted to us by the Church and its religious institutions. The Church pioneered in modern education, built great colleges and universi ties. and works in full harmony with the schools in every community. But the Church performs its highest and holiest mission in the realm of the spirit. All its other services are contributory to this supreme end, that it may teach men to know God and love and serve Him. It opens up a vast new world of faith and hope and joy. t the church for all . .

Poor Seed At Any Price Is Always Too Costly to Planter Progressive farmers recognize that the kind and quality of seed they sow largely determine the value and quality of their crop. They have learned they cannot save money by" buying uncleaned or Superficially cleaned seed from I a neighbor or cheap seed from an unknown truck peddler with- ; out documented tests of its pur- | ity and germination. Experience has shown such "cheap seed" is really the most costly seed they can buy. Yet a large part of the seed grain used for sowing is only farm cleaned. Much of it is sown as it comes from the com bine or thresher, a practice that should be discouraged. Where the fields have been kept relatively free from weeds and the farmer maintains a seed in crease plot for each variety grown, so that the seed is kept pure and as free as possible from weeds and disease, the use of farm-cleaned seed grain for iarge acreages may be defended, but this advice does not apply to small - seeded legumes and grass seeds. It is out of the question for every farmer who wishes to sow' alfalfa, red clover. Ladino. clov er, hairy vetch, bromegrass, orchardgrass or any one of many other legumes and grasses to produce his own seed, or if he does produce it. *o obtain the high quality, disease - free and weed-free seed he desires for sowing. The seed industry has millions of dollars invested in regular and special seed cleaning machinery. I 11 1 — ■ —i n . ' ■ i"» ■■■■ . Wha* Makes Good Seed 1. Adapted variety 11 High yield records 3 High quality of crop 4 High seed purity 5 Small total weec. seeds (1. Freedom from noxious weeds 7 High germination it Freedom from diseases The L>.” id.mts operate their o. i: i seed-testing laboratories, employ skilled workmen and technicians, to process, refine and control the quality of farm seed from its . original country-run or rough cleaned state into the high quality standards required by present day agriculture Considered on price alone, the difference between high-quality recleaned and farm-cleaned seed is very little. Take red clover, at 50 cents per pound for high quality, tested seed against say 35 cents for the unknown qual ity. the so-called “baigain" seed. At 10 pounds per acre, the differ ence is only $1.50 pci acre. The seed cost is small com pared with the expense of pre paring the land and doing the seeding. It is certainly folly to risk a poor stand or invite an m fectation of weeds or disease when for so little more these un necessary risks can be avoided. Recleaned, refined, tested and tagged seed is the most econ omical seed to use. It gives you the kind of crop insurance you Want at low cost. PERSONAL DEBTS The Federal Reserve Board has reported that the personal debts of Americans totaled $23,975,000. 000. at the end of 1952. Rotation Helps Control Tobacco Plant Diseases Plan to follow a definite rota tion in the tobacco field. S. B. Fenne, plant pathologist at VPI, says blackshank. rootknot. and in fact, all soil borne diseases are always much more severe if tobacco is grown in me same soil year after year. He cites some results of tests at the Chatham branch of VPI Agricultural Experiment Station, which point up the value of rota tions. There, researchers have found that a two-yeai rotation of tobacco wheat, and led top the first year, followed the second year by W'heat and red top, re sulted in a good yield of high quality tobacco. Rotations including a legume such as vetch or clovei usually in crease the pounds of tobacco and also the yield of coin which may follow, but unless caie is taken there is danger of producing Heavy, rough tobacco. If corn fol lows the legume it will remove I much of the nitrogeh in the soil and should result in high quality tobacco. Production Tests Bring Recognition To Prince Edward Guernsey Cows, Bull J Some of the herds of members of the Dairy Herd Improvement Association of Prince Edward have been making valuable re cords which have been recognized by the American Guernsey Cattle Club and by the Bureau of Dairy Industry of the United States De partment of Agriculture Announcements have been re ceived recently that two Guernsey cows in the herd of W. B Gates Sons of Rice have made excellent records of production. Evergreen's Golden I.ady. a ten year old Guernsey has just produced a re cord of 11 009 ixiund.s of milk and 537 pounds of butterfat and was milked 596 times while on test. She is the daughter of the famous ■sire. Midvicw's Golden, that has 46 daughters and one son in the Performance Register of The American Guernsey Cattle Club. Top Jnn'or Cow Another re corn made by Cherio >f Molly Brook belonging to W. B Gates Sons, Rice, has pro duced 8.439 pounds of milk and 460 pounds of butterfat. This re eord has also just been released by the American Guernsey Cattle Club from official records of Herd Imorovement Registry. Cherlo was a junior four-year-old and was milked 594 times while on test She is the daughter of the outstanding Guernsey sire. Mid view Majesty's Independent, that has 22 daughters in the Perform ance Register of the American Guernsey Cattle Club. Proven Bull Also just received is informa tion that Guernsey bull, Midview Charmer’s Prank, belonging to F . H Johns of Parmville. has just ' completed a record which places | him in the proven sire class, since ! six or more daughters of this bull ! have produced an average differ ence of 1.791 pounds of rnilk more than their dams and average but - ; ter fat production of 103 pounds more than their dams. These records are gathered by the D H I A Supervisor and indicate the progress being made by these dairymen having the production of their herds check ed monthly. Gus Hammond, of Roanoke, has recently been em ployed by the Prince Edward D H I A and is responsible for gathering such records as those indicated above.

UIRCMM ELECTRIC RHD POWER CORIPRHV SEED TREATMENT OF SMALL GRAINS ADVISED AT VPI Seed treatment of spring oats is 1 particularly important this year to control loose and covered smuts . —diseases which have caused! widespread losses in recent years. S. B. Fenne. plant disease special- I 1st at VPI. says theie was much I more smut on oats than usual in 1952, and this means more seed will be contaminated. Second blights also can be largely controlled by chemical seed treatment. Fenne's advice: Be sure all small grain seeds are thoroughly cleaned Defore treat ing. A cleaning Job will remove all undersized, shriveled, diseased grains, and will leave a more uni form lot of seeds to be treated. Proper cleaning also will remove weed seeds that may be present. Treat at least 24 hours before I planting with one-half ounce of 1 ceresan dust per bushel of seed. Treatment may be done several i weeks before planting if the seed , is stored in a dry place. A mixing machine, such as a barrel, a cement mixer, or an old churn, will be needed. A chute ar i rangement called the Minnesota Seed Grain Treater is easy to use. It saves time and does a thorough ; job. It is easily built on the farm, : and plans are available from county agents. Treat the seed out-of-doors, or in a well-ventilated room, and store out of reach of animals. Treated seed is poisonous, and therefore should not t>e fed to livestock. Fenne points out that seed treatment of spring oats pays for itself many times in increased crop returns.

The intention of the deed from Willis Jackson, i widower, to Myrtle McDaniel was intended to convey the interest of all the children of Willis Jack son and his then deceased wife and that the proceeds from the sale were actually distributed Mwwif those heirs and that the failure of the aforesaid heirs to sign the aforesaid deed was only through ignorance of the fact that they were necessary parties. And further, that oy a certain deed dated the 6th day of March 1691, of record in the Clerk’s Of fice of Cumberland County in Deed Book 36. page 263. one R. S.
