COMING FENCE LAW TO BRING OPPORTUNITY Wl)en Free Range is Abolished Many Farmers Will Have to Sell Cattle. Clemson College, Nov. 15.?January 1, 1922, will see the closing of 1 /the last free range in the state. A < great many people do not realize that i this means that thousands of head of ? native cattle must be thrown upon i the market., This is not encourag- ' ing to the owners of these cattle i when they reflect that people all ' fiver t.hf? rnuntrv are beiner asked ? not to sacrifice their cattle now. An * alfnormal condition exists at present * - because many fanners have felt < forced to sell their animals to raise 1 a little money. This condition makes t the price of beef cattle very low i and especially is this true of the I thinner classes of cattle such as < these native animals are. s Undoubtedly much of this free ; range stock will be sold to be c slaughtered, but this is lyt neces- r sarily true of all of it. When we * consider that native cows. crossed 11 on purebred bulls will produce calves c which will vjeigh on . the average *= - - . A , la two hundred pounds more ai two years of age than those from native r bulls; that the pick of these cows can be bought very cheaply; that ^ the quality and uniformity of their v calves for sale insure a higher price per pound; and that the price of g purebred bulls is less than ever be-ia fore, is it not well to consider the t( advisability of keeping a goodly i si i percentage of the best of these fe- hv males on the farms of the state? jl* Much of our land is good for little ji else than grazing, and at the price ti required, the purchase of these ti animals, if properly managed, should, c< ^be a paying investment. jai The low price of feed at present [P1 should encourage those who have w it to buy up some of the good, young thrifty animals at the low price for Q1 which they must be sold, thinks S. Sl D. Sims, Extension livestock special-jsn ist There is usually a very close P1 margin in feeding cattle, but selHorn run feeder stock be boucht at f? one to five cents per pound, the ^ price at which the comparatively y< thin native cattle are selling. These 01 Animals are accustomed to rustling cc for themselves and can be used to harvest velvet beans or corn and se velvet beans to advantage. It is & hjghly important that they shall not ^ ~ be literally given away. FINDS MONEY te 1 * * Iron Men Dug Up From Scrap Iron ^ Heap. ci Ashburn, Ga., Nov. 15.?While ^ Smith North and J. R.

Clemson College, Nov. 15.?"Farming Under Boll Weevil Conditions" is the title of Extension Bulletin 48, prepared by the Extension Service of Clemson College and now ready for distribution. The publication is being issued to help meet the present conditions and is full of information, instruction, and suggestion for farmers in regard to best farm practices n-the presence of the boll weevil. Calling attention to the fact that South Carolina is now having to face ;he same conditions which other Sou ;hern States have faced one alter an)ther in the onward march of the joll toreevil, Ithe publication stresses, irst of all, the importance of leaning thoroughly the new methods and jractices for successful farming unier new conditions; and urges that :ince there is no single new crop vhich promises to take the place of otton as our main money crop and 10 combination of crops which can >e recommended to all alike, our farners must expect to continue to grow otton and should undertake the mowing of new money crops only on i conservative scale, as plunging in tew untried crops will bring on prob?ms as hard to solve as are the probsms of growing cotton under boll weevil conditions. TKe first section of the bulletin, is iven to a discussion of recommend- 1 tions for cotton production, with at- 5 ?ntions to such important matters as ) talk destruction, and other clean-up- i rork, thorough preparation of the 1 ind, planting of improved varieties, J adicious fertilizing, rapid cultiva- ? on, collection of weevils and punc- < ired squares, and the use of winter ] aver crops. These various subjects < re discussed in the light of the ex- 3 erience of cotton farmers in other i eevil- infested states. < ,The second section discusses the s jestion of making the farm self- I ipporting in order that the cotton rown may be in the nature of a surus money crop. S?ess is laid upop ie production of staple food and ^ ied crops for landlord, tenant, and irestock; provision for a good alljar home garden and a good home ? chard; provision for enough dairy >ws and poultry to supply all the imilies on the farm; and the con- J :rvative development of the hog, drying, and beef cattle industries to ; into a well balanced diversified s irming. t: The third section, devoted to sys- ^ matic soil building, discusses crop * ?tations with specific recommenda- " ons for the severll sections of the a ate, summer legumes, winter cover c ops, drainage and terracing, and 0 te judicious use of lime, livestock J anures and cominercial fertilizers. * Brief suggestions are made in the * tter part of the bulletin concern- * g the adjustment of*contracts be- s ?een landlords and tenants to meet P >w conditions; co-operative effort in ^ oduction, standardization, and n arketing of farm crops and the need specific county programs of safe P rming by each county in the state, a a Blanching Almonds. tl Almonds can be easily blanched if A >u put them in verv hot water and e t them stand for about two mines.
