F. <ir?|K*s Under Glass. "Where can I buy a book on the culture of grapes under glass, a book of real practical value?" Charlton's "Crape Growers' Guide" deals altogether with the cultivation of grapes under glass, and is a practical book by a skilled grape forcer. It is published by the Orange Judd Co., New Yora. Sugar Cane. "I have seen it stated that sugar cane, or ribbon cane as we call it, makes seed in the southern part of the United States. Is this true or not? In my section the stalks have to be bedded and again planted in the spring." I have never heard of the sugar cane blooming or seeding In any part of this country. I believe that it does Beed In Cuba, but no farther north. Umbrella China Trees. "Will a China tree trimmed to one Btem make the umbrella China tree, or is the latter a distinct species?" No sort of pruning of the ordinary China tree will make the umbrella China. While not perhaps a distinct species, it is a permanent varietal form which comes true from seed. Iloth belong to the species Melia Azaderack, and the umbrella form originated in a sport or natural mutation which has been maintained. Strawberries Mixing. "Will the Progressive fall-bearing strawberries mix with the springbearing sorts if planted close together?" Plants mix only from the crossing of the flowers of one variety by the pollen of another, and the seedings grown would show the cross, but plants near by cannot mix. The plants of the lall-bearing strawberries might run in among the others if the runners are not- watched and might in that way get the two mixed, but if the runners are watched they can easily be kept separate, and both varieties will keep pure. Nitrate of Hoda for I/ettuce. "We have a good lot of lettuce from seed grown in August and transplanted to rows about a foot apart. It has grown well, and I want to know if nitrate of soda will help it, and I do not want to over-do it and hurt the plants. Pleaso advise." Nitrate of soda is excellent for pushing the plants to heading. It should be applied at the rate of 150 pounds an acre between the rows when the leaves are dry, avoiding getting any on the plants. In yout i section you should be able to heat?| this lettuce in November. But when the nights get <ttiite cold it will be well to cover it in some way, either with cloth or merely with pine straw. Horse Itadi.sh. "1 would like information in re gard to the sowing of horse rad-1 ish and where the roots can he had . t Horse radish is planted in early spring from root cuttings. I plant l? between the rows of early cabbage. Punch holes with a dibble or crowbar and set the cuttings straight in the hole and pack the soil to them. After the cabbage is cut the horse radish is cultivated through the season arid dug in the fall, and the side roots trimmed ofT for planting the next season. Cut the top of the root square across and the lower end slanting so that you can tell top from bottom. The best variety is the Maliner Kren, which you can get from any of the leading seedsmen. Cotton Anthracnoso. "I wish some information in regard to rotten cotton. Can I give the seed any treatment that will not destroy its germination and will prevent the rot? The idea that it comes from the soil and not the seed must be wrong, for some of the same seed were put on land never known to HTCM'KHOIjDERS' meeting. Ivancaster, S. C., Nov. 21, 1916. Notice of Meeting of Stockholders: Please take notice that a meeting of the stockholders is called to consider the question of liquidating, winding up and dissolving The Lancaster Publishing Company, on the 22nd day of December, 1916, at Lancaster, South Carolina, at the office of the Company, nt 11 o'clock a. m.. and to take such other action, if the meeting so desires, as may be necessary for the stockholders to take, or which may come before the meeting. | If the Company should determine by a majority vote of all the shares of the capital stock of said Company, that 'said winding up, liquidation l t I t HE LANCASTER NEWS ' WANT TO KNOW MASSHY grow rotten cotton and it rotted this year? I assume that you refer to the boll rot or anthaenose. This is carried {only by th eseed. It may be possible that treating the seed with formaldehyde as we do for oats smut mnv have some effect, bm I know of no experiment demonstrating this. Hotter get clean seed from healthy cotton. It is not carried in the soil, but a good farmer will not plant cotton after cotton, but will farm in a good improving rotation of crops and legumes. Serradella. Mr. E. C. Sanford. who gives no postofflce address, writes that he has a package of seed from a Western seedsman marked "Tested and Reliable Clover?Serradella." lie wants to know about the "Clover." Serradella is Ornithopus sativus, and is not a clover at all, though it is a legume. It will grow on poor land, but is more a weed than anything else and not to he compared with the true clovers, which all belong to the genus Trlfolium. People have gotten to calling many legumes clover, such as bur clover and Japan clover, neither of which are true clovers. The serradella has some value, but very little as compared with crimson clover, red clover and alsike clover. Oats anil Wheat. "I have just read the front page on winter covers, and want to make some exceptions. Oats will do well here put in with a grain drill during any open weather before the first of March, and I believe that wheat would do well, too. We do not have frost before November 1 to make it safe to sow wheat on account of the Hessian fly." You overlook entirely the purpose of a winter cover. Of course you can sow oats in your section in late winter. but in the meantime the hare soil will be losing fertility. You could sow wheat likewise, but make no wheat. In fact, your section is not a wheat section. Oats sowed in September will make a good winter cover and will make far more oats than the aame oats sowed in late February or March. The idea of a winter cover is to have a green growing crop on the land all fall ano winter to prevent loss of nitrates from the soil. .Making Compost. "I notice that the Red Devil lye is recommended for mixing in water and sprinkling over manure or compost to cut it down and fine it. What is your opinion of this?" The Red Devil lye is made of caustic soda. It will add nothing of value to the manure, and in the cutting down you will lose value instead of gaining anything. The place for manure is not in a pile but out on the field and spread as fast as 'made. If loses less there than in any way you can handle it. Adding the Red Devil will simply be a waste of the cost of the lye and the labor, and you will be losing ammonia from the manure in the pile. Get the manure out as fast as possible after it is made and spread it where some plant roots will find it. I cover my garden all over thickly with manure in the late fall and let it lie all winter, and It dees far hotter than nt o n ii ro nnnllAd * * ni>|incii in nit; spnns. inn on the land is the beat place for manure, and do not imagine that you are getting potash in the lye. for there is not a particle of potash in it. I? you will read the label on the cana you will find that it is soda, and aoda will not take the place of potash. We can afford to pile and turn manure for the garden and frames, but it does not pay to spend time and labor over a compost heap for tb < farm crop.- Let the manure go out as far as it will and farm so that you will make more feed and feed more stock till you can have manure enough to go over the whole corn field. When a farmer does that he is on the high road to success. and dissolution shall be made, the same will be done under the statutes made and provided. This notice will be mailed to yon. and also will appear, by publication, in The Lancaster News, the same be tng thirty-one days prior to the meeting hereby called. r. e. wyi.ie President and owner of 19 share* |of stock.

Rock Hill, Nov. 25.?Members of the stalT of the Southern Sociological (Congress last night closed their (week's conference in Rock Hill and Itoflnv tliov l?f? iui vjrrvcnvuie, wnere a conference will be in progress next I week. The final meeting last night was largely attended and the enthusiasm was high. It \mis decided to petition the city council to make provision; j for employing a public or (ommun-t jity nurse and there is little doubt hut! , that the city will adopt the plan suggested with the beginning of the new year. This action was recommended by the mass meeting alter . j tlie workers had recommended than I a visiting nurse be secured. The re-| |ports of the members of the staff, while pointing out many matters that' need prompt and grave attention, j I were not as adverse as some may bave supposed. The workers pre-, sented cold facts as to existing con-' ditions and made suggestions for the relief needed. Many of the suggestions have been made by local people interested, but they were presented in a more convincing way last night. The need of an extension of the water mains to all parts of the city was stressed, Just so much as was the use of shallow wells condemned. The necessity of the extension of the sewer lines to all parts was pointed out, it being jdeclard that until this is done the I city can not be as healthy as it I.should. The present water plant and | sewer system, so far as they extend, j were praised by the surveyors. In j making the recommendations it was pointed out that all the improve- | ments could not be made at once, but I would have to come about gradually. I The speakers urged that the citizens keep working at the subject until every house, white and negro, was provided with sewer connections. [| Following the reports a local chap- ' :ter of the Southern Sociological conjgress was formed. Mayor W. (i. J Stevens was elected as president, Mrs. Alex Long, vice president, and P. B. Condon, secretary-treasurer. Mayor Stevens, who presided at the 1 meeting, expressed the intention of the city council to carry out the rec- i otnmendations made, in so far as was practical to do with the present in- i come of the city. He was in hearty i sympathy with the movement to keep I people well. He promised to give the i best of his attention to his work, DO T BY oui WHICH UT 111 Lancasl F: I 3 Have JP*' %MV>riey tScmkmsS Club. Coine in; get a bank book FREE.
