born late in the 19th century, is the
real Fountain of Youth. Industry
has made it possible for men and
women to see more, do more, live
more in 30 years than their ances-
tors did in three score and ten.
Mechanica| devices have lifted the
burden of drudgery so that men and
women no longer are middle-aged
at 40. Afodern Americans turn the
half-century with youthful vigor.'*
The power of advertising has
given us these benefits of the mod-

More than four centuries ago, an
imaginative Spanish soldier of for-
tune listened to fantastic Indian
tales of a fountain that restored ,
youth. He believed these yarns, and,
in 1513, set foot in Florida tn his
search for eternal virility.
Ponce de Leon was disappointed.
He failed to find his magic spring,
and died without knowing that he
had stood on the land that was to
give man a lot more living in the
normal span of life .,. and actually
to extend his life by years!

Grasshopper* Doing Damage
The “jumbo” grasshopper is re-
appearing in many communities
this spring, but seem to be doing
more damage in the Valley View,
Spanish Fort, Prairie Point,, and
Ringgold communities in north-
ern part of‘the county, and some
damage on the prairie west of
Bowie, according to County Agent
A. S. Elliott.
Bait materials are available at

MBhalf -the bran, and all the

tion before leaving the mixing
stations. At present the station at
Montague will be the only one to
operate.
Truck Crop Insects
This is the time of year all the,
pests begin to Show tip In the
gardens anji truck patches. Per-
haps the harlequin bugs, squash
bugs, cucumber beetles—a 12
spotted and a striped one—and
tomato fruit worms are, our worst
pests, and are the hardest to Con-
trol* The best treatment is to
use rotenone dust, or spray. This
rotenone comes in a commercial
mixture that contains 4 per cent
of 5 per cent rotenone, and is too
strong to use direct on plants.
For vine crops such as water-
melons, cucumbers, cantaloupes,
squashes, and pumpkins, take one
part of the commercial rotenone
mixture, and mix with 5 parts of
lime. Use 10-15 pounds of this
dust per acre, -being sure to get
ik on the bugs. For other plants,
use commercial sulphur instead of
lime.
. To control the common plant
lice, use “Blackleaf 40” or nicotine
sulphate as “a spray bn dusf
For red bugs or "Chiggers” on
the lawn—>use 1’4 pounds of com-
mercial dusing sulphur to each
1,000 square feet of lawn.
Early watermelons, cantaloupes,
and tomatoes may he “sidedres-
sed” now-with 6-12*6, or a 6-9-3
tolxtufe^’ppiied at tfee rate of l°0
pounds per acre applied 18-24 j the following
inches from the plants in the "That which hath been is now;
' and that which is to be hath al-
ready been; and- God requireth
that which is past” (Ecclesiastes
3:155.--—:-------- ■ ■ " - ■ ■ --------
The Lesson-Sermon also in-
cludes the following passage from
the Christian Science textbook,
“Science and Health with Key to
the Scriptures!’ by -Mary - Baker
Eddy: “When we realize that
Life is Spirit, never in nor bf
matter, this understanding will
expand into srff-completeness, I
finding all in God, good, ahd
needing no other consciousness”

Before becoming too ardent ]
over prolonged sunbathing, one
would do well to remember that
many a vacation or week-end has
been ruined because the blistering
and illpess-producing power of
the sun’s rays on tender skin was
insufficiently appreciated.
Some persons are susceptible
to sunburn but don’t tan; other
individuals tan over a longer or
shorter period, but the same gen-
eral rule applies to all—“don’t
overdo.” —
Most sunburns, according to Dr.
Cox, are similar to first-degree

over-exposure, reach the blister-
