The Longtown Farmers Meet mg Most SuccessfuL One of the most successful of all the meetings held in the county was the one held Tuesday night of this week at the Long town school house. Farmers of both races for miles around came in great numbers to hear the speakers on the matter of farm preparedness. The school build ing was taxed to its capacity!and then there was not room enough for all to find seats and many remained outside the doors. The speakers of the evening were Rev. J. J. Montgomery, Thos. M. Seawell and R. S. Rutland. Each of these speakers make a most impressive presentation of the conditions before us and of the plans and relief as mapped out by the county committee. There was much evidence on the part of the-audience that the sugges tions of the county ~committee would be carried into effect. Two other meetings will be held in this section next Sunday for the colored farmers. One at White Oak church at twelve o'clock and the other at Olivet at three o'clock. Before the meeting adjourned a committee consistinx of Messrs, R. C. Reeves, W. E. Wilds and J. C. Stewart was ap pointed to co-operate with the people of the community in an effort to see that the suggestion of the county committee is car ried out The Nation's Life was at Hazard.

Moore & Company, Inc. Winnsboro, S. C. Corn Selling at $1.72 * a Bushel, Wholesale WORTH SAVING, ISN'T IT? When feed your work stock a ration of COTTON\ SEED MEAL with corn. Dr. Tait Butler says that if you are feeding your mule 14 lbs. of corn per day, you can take out four pounds and put in two pounds of cotton seed meal and get better results. Four pounds of corn is worth 12 cents today. Two pounds of cotton seed meal is worth four cents---a saving of 8 cents per day on each animal fed. In 365 days you would save $29.20, if you put into practice the advice of Dr. Butler, who is conceded to be the highest author'ity on feeds and feeding. It is as necessary to SAVE as it is to PRODUCE, and "Saving" and "Producing" are the watchwords of today. In The Progressive Farmer, of March 24, 1917, -Dr...Butler. recommends the following ration for work stock when cotton seed meal is used. (1) 1 part cotton seed meal by weight to five parts of corn. (2) 1 part cotton seed meal to 4 parts corn, 4 parts oats. (3) 1 part cotton seed meal to 10 parts oats. "To be fed with usual quantities of grass hay, corn, fodder." * These are war times. Corn is human food. BETTER SAVE IT. A pint to a quart of cotton seed meal fed daily will produce good results. South Carolina Cotton Seed. . Crushers' Association Columbia. S. C.
