COMING FENCE LAW
TO BRING OPPORTUNITY
Wl)en Free Range is Abolished Many
Farmers Will Have to Sell
Cattle.
Clemson College, Nov. 15.?January
1, 1922, will see the closing of 1
/the last free range in the state. A <
great many people do not realize that i
this means that thousands of head of ?
native cattle must be thrown upon i
the market., This is not encourag- '
ing to the owners of these cattle i
when they reflect that people all '
fiver t.hf? rnuntrv are beiner asked ?
not to sacrifice their cattle now. An *
alfnormal condition exists at present *
- because many fanners have felt <
forced to sell their animals to raise 1
a little money. This condition makes t
the price of beef cattle very low i
and especially is this true of the I
thinner classes of cattle such as <
these native animals are. s
Undoubtedly much of this free ;
range stock will be sold to be c
slaughtered, but this is lyt neces- r
sarily true of all of it. When we *
consider that native cows. crossed 11
on purebred bulls will produce calves c
which will vjeigh on . the average *=
- - . A , la
two hundred pounds more ai two
years of age than those from native r
bulls; that the pick of these cows
can be bought very cheaply; that ^
the quality and uniformity of their v
calves for sale insure a higher price
per pound; and that the price of g
purebred bulls is less than ever be-ia
fore, is it not well to consider the t(
advisability of keeping a goodly i si
i percentage of the best of these fe- hv
males on the farms of the state? jl*
Much of our land is good for little ji
else than grazing, and at the price ti
required, the purchase of these ti
animals, if properly managed, should, c<
^be a paying investment. jai
The low price of feed at present [P1
should encourage those who have w
it to buy up some of the good, young
thrifty animals at the low price for Q1
which they must be sold, thinks S. Sl
D. Sims, Extension livestock special-jsn
ist There is usually a very close P1
margin in feeding cattle, but selHorn
run feeder stock be boucht at f?
one to five cents per pound, the ^
price at which the comparatively y<
thin native cattle are selling. These 01
Animals are accustomed to rustling cc
for themselves and can be used to
harvest velvet beans or corn and se
velvet beans to advantage. It is &
hjghly important that they shall not ^
~ be literally given away.

BOLL WEEVIL CONDITIONS
Important New Publication by the
' Extension Service.
Clemson College, Nov. 15.?"Farming
Under Boll Weevil Conditions"
is the title of Extension Bulletin 48,
prepared by the Extension Service of
Clemson College and now ready for
distribution. The publication is being
issued to help meet the present conditions
and is full of information,
instruction, and suggestion for farmers
in regard to best farm practices
n-the presence of the boll weevil.
Calling attention to the fact that
South Carolina is now having to face
;he same conditions which other Sou
;hern States have faced one alter an)ther
in the onward march of the
joll toreevil, Ithe publication stresses,
irst of all, the importance of leaning
thoroughly the new methods and
jractices for successful farming unier
new conditions; and urges that
:ince there is no single new crop
vhich promises to take the place of
otton as our main money crop and
10 combination of crops which can
>e recommended to all alike, our farners
must expect to continue to grow
otton and should undertake the
mowing of new money crops only on
i conservative scale, as plunging in
tew untried crops will bring on prob?ms
as hard to solve as are the probsms
of growing cotton under boll
weevil conditions.
TKe first section of the bulletin, is
iven to a discussion of recommend- 1
tions for cotton production, with at- 5
?ntions to such important matters as )
talk destruction, and other clean-up- i
rork, thorough preparation of the 1
ind, planting of improved varieties, J
adicious fertilizing, rapid cultiva- ?
on, collection of weevils and punc- <
ired squares, and the use of winter ]
aver crops. These various subjects <
re discussed in the light of the ex- 3
erience of cotton farmers in other i
eevil- infested states. <
,The second section discusses the s
jestion of making the farm self- I
ipporting in order that the cotton
rown may be in the nature of a surus
money crop. S?ess is laid upop
ie production of staple food and ^
ied crops for landlord, tenant, and
irestock; provision for a good alljar
home garden and a good home ?
chard; provision for enough dairy
>ws and poultry to supply all the
imilies on the farm; and the con- J
:rvative development of the hog,
drying, and beef cattle industries to
; into a well balanced diversified s
irming. t:
The third section, devoted to sys- ^
matic soil building, discusses crop *
?tations with specific recommenda- "
ons for the severll sections of the a
ate, summer legumes, winter cover c
ops, drainage and terracing, and 0
te judicious use of lime, livestock J
anures and cominercial fertilizers. *
Brief suggestions are made in the *
tter part of the bulletin concern- *
g the adjustment of*contracts be- s
?een landlords and tenants to meet P
>w conditions; co-operative effort in ^
oduction, standardization, and n
arketing of farm crops and the need

Many Persons.
New York, Nov. '15.?At lea's
nine persons are believed to hav<
been burned to death in a tenemen'
house fire early this morning. Fiv<
bodies, all unidentified, were founc
huddled near a doorway on the fiftl
floor of the building, and firemei
later found three more bodies, non
of which was identified. Two mer
and one woman were seriously injured,
while , thirty others vj$r<
treated for aibrasions land shock.
The building, a five story tenement,
was occupied by fifteen , fami
lies. Investigation . showed the fir<
had originated in a basement and
roared up through a shaft to the second
floor, where it "mushroomed,"
spreading through the four upper
stories of the building.
Many of the people who lived in
the tenement groped their way to
windows, where they clung to ledges
and screamed for help. Postoffice employees
from a substation across the
street saved many befgre the firemen
reached the scene. One man became
exhausted while clinging to a
window lfdge and fell to the street,
suffering a fractured skull.
