Many a garden, in South Carolina has grown up in weeds. Get it to growing again. Plow it or spade it, manure it if the ground is not as rich as cream and plant vegetables for fall and winter use. Later on, about the first of September, sow a row of some early variety of head lettuce and radishes and a planting of snap beans. About the middle of September plant winter onions and spinach. Keep the garden going. In South Carolina when you say greens you mean turnip tops. The domestic science folks tell us that we should use spinach for greens because they contain more iron than any other salad vegetables. Spinach is an especially good addition to the diet of children. Now is the time to plant it for early fall use. Sow a row or two by the garden. the seed rather thin in the row, the rows 24 inches apart. If the rains are seasonable and the soil as rich as it should be with proper hoeiner it will be ready for use in Octo ber. A sowing about the middle of September will supply greens throughout the winter and early spring for spinach is about as hardy as salad onions. Keep strawberries clean. If allowed to become infested with weeds, the plants will become weakened through competition and the quality, size, and number of berries produced next spring will be reduced. Vigorous strawberry plants set now and kept free of weeds until frost wiill give a good yield of extra (large berries next spring. I It is not too early to order fruit trees and vines. Decide upon the kind you wish to grow and write for nursery catalogues, a list of varieties best adopted to your surroundings and other information TEN SUGGESTIONS I FOR MILK CONSUMERS I * Keep Milk Clean. Covered and Cold. Clemson College.?Milk consumers who would get greatest satisfaction and benefit from money spent for milk or for the keeping of home dairy cows should give heed to the following ten suggestions, says J. P. La. Master, Chief of the Dairy Division. 1. Buy only the best milk obtainable. It is the cheapest in the long run. 2. Consult the health department before selecting your milk dealer. 3. Buy only bottled milk if possible. Dipped milk is often dirty and deficient in cream. 4. Take milk into the house as soon as it is delivered, and place it j in the refrigerator immediately. I Bacteria increase rapidly in milk J which stands in the sun or warms up, and such milk will sour quickly. 5. Keep milk in the original bottle | in the refrigerator until the moment of serving. JVlilk which has been pour- ; ed from the bottle should not be returned to it. 6. Keep the bottle covered with ; a paper cap or an inverted tumbler,' to prevent the entrance of flies and dust, which may carry dangerous^ bacteria into the milk. 7. Keep the refrigerator clean1 and sweet by means of proper drain.! age and frequent washing with scald-1 ing water and sal soda, since milk! quickly absorbs unpleasant odors' and becomes less palatable. 8. Wash milk bottles as soon as; emptied, by rinsing first with luke-j warm water and tnen witn not wa-i i ter. If there is an infectious dis-j ease in .your house, do not return! bottles except with the knowledge of; the health department and under' conditions which it may prescribe. j 9. Return enfpty bottles prompt.] ly and do not use them for anything except milk. Remember that they; are the property of the dealer and; represent cash. 10. Remember that clean milk, i properly cared for, is one of the best' foods obtainable. It is nourishing, digestible, and usually economical. GARDEN SHOULD BE KEPT IN. SHAPE DURING WINTER j Contmue to plant beans until the first of September. The Bountiful is the best variety for fall planting. English peas may be planted in the middle of August for harvest in early November. Plant an extra early variety. Lettuce seed may be sown now and transplanted as soon as plants are of sufficient size. Big Boston, Iceberg and Hanson are excellent varities. Plant onion sets in early September. They will produce edible onions during November and December. Transplant celery during the last part of July and the first part of August. Giant Paschal and Perfected Hartwell are good varities. Celery planted at this season must be bleached with soil. Spray grapes with Bordeaux mixture after harvesting fruit. This is necessary in order to retain leaves until killed by frost.

A problem in marketing: If a potato in town is worth two in the counitfry,who gets the difference? Weeding is as important in growing good livestock a? in .growing good crops. A dollar saved is a dollar made Well, a green winter cover cr>p may save $10,00 per acre in plant food. If two cows will produce 12,000 pounds of milk per year, why feed and care for three to do it? Advice from a successful swine grower: "Rape for spring and fall is a forage crop that no hog farmer can afford to overlook." Clean-up days are all right, but let's put more emphasis on making and keeping the farm premises Itautiful. eJ ISafiSiKfiHHRHBflffl \ antile Co. 1 i i i my Departments i j 9 j roRE || WG DAILY j!
