f ' WEEKLY BUREAU News to Publish "Wan Benefit of Many (Address all communications relative to this department to Hon. E. J. Watson, State Agricultural Commissioner, Columbia, S. C.) If any one had any doubt as to whether or not the South Carolina State Bureau of Marketing was helping the farmer to dispose of his surplus products the following note received from a farmer near Radgeway in Fairfield county ought to be convincing: "The Bureau is the finest thing I yet. I advertised 125 bushels of Cleveland Big Boll Cotton Seed through it and soon sold all at 90 cents the bushel. I also sold 41 puuuus oi Angora wooi ax. a seasonably price. 1 also have sold unite a number of pigs through the Bureau at good prices. Could have sold five times as much Cleveland ' Cotton Seed at the same price. Long Jive the Bureau." \And then from way up in Oconee ear Westminister a farmer writing to get some registered hogs and other stock says: "I think that the Bureau is rendering the people of South Carolina a great service, and I for one at least appreciate it." This week also a farmer in Sumter county received an order for two of his country hams at 20 cents the pound from a man way down in Lakeland, Florida, who had seen these hams listed in the bulletin.

Many - people have learned by costly experi> i nee how not to handle them. s Some people make the mistake of (1 giving fattening cattle thc finishing touches by feeding extra heavy allow- ( j ances of cottonseed meal during the j. last few days, which Invariably loos-'t i ens their bowels to such an extent j that they arrive at market so gaunt j . and so (llthy that they can scarcely 1 be recognized by. their owners. Ex- ' , cessive feeding of corn, or any other concentrate, will have the same ef- j feet, and should be avoided. A steer should not be full of water v , -v v hen he starts for market, as that is (| not to loosen his bowels. If he is be- ' c ing fed silage, or any other succu-'s l'oit or watery feed, that should be f cut off during the lost two days be- j f >re loading on the car. In fact, f during the last 24 to 48 hours be-! fore shipping he should have nothing j to eat but an abundance of good. ^ sweet, well cured hay, and that j I should be timothy, Johnson grass, j redtop, or sorie hay of that nature, ^ as alfalfa, clover, peavine or any j other legume hay is apt to have a loosening effect. lie should have very little water ( during the 24 to 36 hours previous ] to the time he arrives in the sale . pens at market, where he will then drink water freely and he ready for j i a good till of hay. ^ Handled in this manner he will f. look as full, as clean, and as near .
