Agricultural ^
Department
Diversification The Thing.
Practical Ideas On Farm
Work Gathered by Senator
Smith On His Alabama
Trip.
Columbia Sta'e: Hon. E. JL>.
Smith r- u;n cl i? tois cry yes
ter.iax a teri.onn .'join Montgomery,
Ala., where tie delivered an
ado're>a t'? the Alabama Sta'e
Fair association.
Mr. Smith, :r? speaking of the
lair exhibits at Montgomery,
said:
' 1 was especially s'ruck with
the fact that ifarmers of Alabama
put into practical use the
idea of diversifieaiion. With
them divers'fication i< not mere
theory, but at fhe fair crounds
each individual farmer fs grained
his individual 6pace to exhibit
the entire product of his
farm.
'Ibis includes everything thai
he rai-es on the farm and ihere
is exhibit* d by ' he farmer even
the frui' in preserved form.
Each farmer gives to the committee
the amount ot the various
crops that he has ra sed o.? his
farm, the ; -ofit he made, it any,
the cost and all items tint are
considered necessary.
"1 believe that this was the
main feauture ot the Alabama
State fair exhibits and it would
not be a bad idea for the South
Carolina Fair association to
o.O.r.t u?
? "[/? IUI3 c, ill 11113 11II1"?
wtiwu our own lair is almost here
it would he well lor the farmer*
to consider this :dea of diversilied
exhibits."
WILLIAMSON CORN PLAN.
It is well known 'hat iht
Williamson corn plan has dont
wondera in the production ol
th:s necessary product on tin
larm. The plan has been given
wide publicity and its men's
are being discussed in man}
other Siaiet. Mr. Smith lountl
that in Alabama there was a difference
of opinion between tho-e
farmers who ha'i tried the Wil
liamson corn plan and the ag
ricultural d ^artment.
"There is a confl c< noing o:i
in Alabama, said Mr Sini'li
"between the agricultural department
and some of the farmera
as to the efficiency "f the
Williamaou corn plan. M my
farmers who have tried this
method pronounce it a decided
success. The agricultural de.
partment believes tli it there another
method-" of growing corn
that are better than the one advocated
b\ Mr. Williinmon.
TO FINAM K 'I'llK CHOI'.

THE COTTON CHOI'.
A- t<? *liis year's cotton crop
Mr. r?ii:Ii rta'ed 'bat the opmi
ion as expressed bv thos^1 who
' kn w <*o iditions in the Southern
States 'hit 'be crop will n t pxc-ed
12,000.000 bale*. Ill s ibout

las' > ear's cr<?p. Mr. Smith i
talked wilh ta mers of Alabama,
I Mississippi and Georgia and his
i conclusion on the size ol the cop
1 is based upon he opinions ex- .
! pressed by these persons.
"The price ol cotton will no
higher," eaid Mr. Smith. "The I
revival ol tride should do much
to bring this ab ?ut."
The crop in South Carolina is
r-rnaller than last year and the
same is true of Alabama and
Georgia. Texas shows the lean
decrease in the cotton crop. Tne
quality ol 'he yield is much better.
Had a Close Call.

How to Stack Hay Without
Stack Poles.
"F. <A."' in Progressive Farmer..
Place bru-h or wood on ground
| b or 10 leet wide and as long as
it will require 'o hold all the
hav 'ha< is convenient to carry
to this place. I'lac the hay on
this piace same as if making
. munds'ack around a pole, ex?
cept it will not have any poles
f and will be long. Draw it in
on the sides to a sharp point like
i the ro- f ol a house. At the en<is
j let it be straight up, riot drawing
r it in any.
1 lhis is better than stacking
. around poles in small stacks
: ^ ' u will not have ho much waste
because there will not be as much
ol it exposed to the weather as
if you had a lot ol small Hacks,
i You O'ti make small stacks this
way or large ones. Mase them
t according io your amouni ol hay.
1 have put fifty acres ot 1 irtre
^ro'Aih ol pea vines in une si ac t
. ml 1 have only put lluee loads
i in a stack. It wi.l be less irouble
than diguing holes and get
, tiny: poles.
There is but one trouble in
, making such largo stacks: you
. can'i get oir a small amount of
it as you want it. Tnis can be
remedied by getting a h ?y knite
and cutting off what you want to
move. You can cut througn a
' larue st ick in less than an hour
Can cut. i! as la'4 as one man

Doctors
say take Cod Liver Oil?they
undoubtedly mean Scott's
Emulsion.
It would be just as sensible
for them to prescribe Quinine
in its crude form as to prescribe
Cod Liver Oil in its
natural state. In
Scott's
Emulsion
the oil is emulsified and made
easy to take?easy to digest
and easy to be absorbed in to
the body?and is the most
natural and useful fatty food to
feed and nourish the wasted
body that is known in medicine
today.
Nothing can be found to take
its place. If you are run-down
you should take it.
