DUSTING DEMONSTRATIONS
GIVE EXCELLENT RESULTS
With the beginning of cotton pick- |
ing, the dusting demonstrations con- <
ducted on seven farms about Abbe- (
ville are showing excellent results 1
from dusting with arsenate.' Mr. T. <
M. Cheatham, Manager of the South
ern Cotton Oil Company, who is in 1
charge of the work issues an invi- <
tation to all the farmers of Abbe- i
ville County to visit the fields and ]
examine the results for themselves.
When given a careful examina
tion on September 1st, the dusted
areas showed 25 to 75 per cent more
bolls on the dusted than on the un- i
dusted arears and the dusted areas
showed less than 5 per cent of the
bolls punctured while the undusted
showed from 15 to 60 per cent of the
bolls punctured. Each field has signs
showing which section is dusted and
which was left as a check plot so
that anyone can visit the fields at
any time and study the results for
themselves.
Mr. Cheatham will be glad to take
parties of farmers or others,interest
ed in cotton growing to the fields
and explain the demonstrations to
them at any time if they will apply
to him at the oil mill.
The demonstrations are located
on the farms of R. B. Ferguson, G.
E. Mann, McKenzie & Johnson, W.
F. Nickles, W. H*. Long, W. A. Ste
venson and Dr S. G. Thomson. Those
of Ferguson, Mann, McKenzie &
Johnson, Stevenson and Long are
conveniently located on highways
where they can be examined in a
few minutes by anyone passing in
an automobile. The farmers of Ab
beville can readily determine in a
few minutes spent in any of these
fields whether cotton can be raised
successfully under boll weevil con

SECRETARY DAVIS
IN FAVOR OF BEER
Chicago, Sept, 2.?James J. Davis
secretary of labor, announced a
stand in favor of beer for steel mill
workers in a chapter of the autobio
graphy of his life, which is now on
the press.
As a preface to his observations
on that subject Secretary Davis
likened the temperature in the tin
mills in the summer tiime to the
fourth of July in Abyssinia.
"Water doesen't agree with the
stomach as well as does beer," is
one sentence in his autobiography
Secretary Davis quotes himself dir
ectly in conversation with what he
termed an "uplifter."
In another chapter the secretary
I writes:
"Capitalism, as the communists
. call it, is an imperfect system. But
I it is the only system that has ban
. ished famine Under communism
and feudalism there was hunger.
"Nature is using communists,
r slackers, sick men and fools to un
; d ermine the race that has con
quered her. The man who says, quit
work and divide our cake and eat it
I is opening the way for nature to
strike suddenly with a famine.
"The man who advocates 'one big
. strike to destroy our capital is the
secret agent of starvation."
FOR TREE AND I
PLANT INSPECTION
Shippers Should Apply to State Crop
Pest Commission
Immediately
Clemson College, Sept. 2.?Deal
ers in nursery stock, sweet potato,
cabbage and other plants who de
sire to ship during the fall and win
ter should make application to the
State Crop Pest Commission imme
diateiy. ims will enable the com
mission to make regular schedules
for its inspection officers, which
will be a saving in money to the
grower a saving in time, says Prof.
A. F. Conradi, Entomologist for the |
Commission.
In making these inspections it is
of course to be expected that pref
erence is given to earlier appli
cations, and in order to be able to
make up a schedule th.it will take'
the least time and expense, the Com-,
mission should have these applica- i
tions in as early as possible. It isj
requested that applications be made
so that the nurserymen may have
the inspections made 'duripg Sep-j
tember and early October, while
the firstv inspection of sweet pota-j
toes should be made in the field
during the first week of Septem
