LANDS ARE ROBBED BY WINTER RAINS Uncovered Hillside Soils Lose Tons of Fertility Annually That Could Be Saved. TERRACING WILL SAVE I! Laying Off Terrace# on the 8lopea and Growing Winter Cover Crops Will Save Millions to 8outh Carolina Farmers?Hillside Erosion Especially Coatiy In Piedmont 8ection of 8tate. South Carolina fanners, and especially those In the hilly Piedmont section, need to terrace their lands to keep the soil from being washed away by erosion, which Is a wearing away caused by wind and rain. The erosion caused by rain water washes thousands of tons of soil annually from the lands of this state, with a consequent loss of fertility. Nature's method of preventing erosion is to keep the soil covered with trees, leaves, and grass. Man's method Is to terrace and grow winter cover rrona. A terrace Is a ridge of soil thrown up in such a manner as to prevent water from flowing rapidly down a hillside or slope. Only 6teep or rolling lands need terracing. Use a leveling instrument in runntag lines for terraces. One can be had for from $12 to $25 and can be used for many other kinds of work on the farm. It is necessary also to have a "hillside" plow, so that the dirt can , be thrown always down hill. After determining on the line of the terrace, by the use of the leveling instrument, begin on that line and throw the first furrow up hill. Going above it, using a hillside plow, throw the next furrow down hill. Throw each succeeding furrow down hill until the proper distance has been covered to get an elevation of about three feet. This system, having the terraces about three feet high and vertical, will give what is known as the level bench terrace, the land between any two terraces becoming a level bench with no fall in any direction after a few years' cultivation. The level bench terrace is best suited to most of the farms in Piedmont Sonth Carolina. The strongest and highest terraces should be located, as a rule, near the upper edge of the hillside field, because if the top terrace breaks it is well nigh impossible to prevent the torr^rps below from being swept away. Run a terrace or ditch at the upper edge of the field to care for the surplus water which may come from an adjoining field, pasture or woodland. Such surplus water often proves too much for any system of terraces to control. Crossing terraces with teams, plows or wagons will form depressions that will allow water to break over and start gullies, which weaken and destroy a terrace. Avoid this by leaving at the end of the field a sodded slope to be used as a road to get from one terrace bench to another. EXTENSION DIVISION. Clemson Agricultural College. HOME-MIXED FERTILIZER Farmers Can Save From Three to Five Dollars Per Ton by Mixing Materials at Home Farmers can save from three to five dollars a ton by mixing their fertilizers at home. Three other advan tages of home-mixed fertilizers are stated as follows by Clemson College authorities: 1. It is possible to know definitely from what sources the ammonia In your fertillizer is derived. 2. It is possible to prepare for each crop the special grade of fertilizer best suited to it. 3. There is a saving in freight, hauling, and distributing, by not having to handle a lot of "filler" that ia put in ready-mixed fertilizer. Farmers can get Circular 10, "Home Mixing of Fertilizers", by writing to the Extension Division, Clemson College. i * USE WILT RESISTANT SEED. Somebody estimates that the South loses about ten million dollars annually as the result of the ravages of cotton wilt and root-knot. South Carolina bears a large part of this loss. It is not difficult, however, to protect ones cotton crop from wi#t. The use of wilt-resistant varieties of cotton is the course urged by the botany division of Clemson College and this divis"?
