Farmers to Ship Cotton. 0 f&umty Agent Carwile returned |from Columbia, after a meeting there .Monday of the Clemson College field workers in the interest of the Export Corporation, inspired over the fact that the Southern farmers and busi ness* men are no longer dependent up .on the New Yo\rk Exchange to mar ket the cotton for our people, as they have been in the past. Among the things brought out in this meeting are: Over 81,000,000 have been sub scribed in South Carolina by 5,000 subscribers; the Organization Com mittee will apply for a charter on the 12th of this month; then stock will be sold in the other Southern states; some of the cotton will be shipped in the month of December; the Corporation will buy cotton and Avili handle cotton on a commission i>asis; the Corporation will have very efficient men in the field to buy and handle the cotton. Also, the Clemson agents planned a series of meetings in the counties of the state. Below is the schedule for the meetings in Edgefield county: Monday, November 15, ll a. m.

The club boy who is working and" planning for a big profitable yield should select an acre that will be cleared of crops early in the fall and break it deep. Eight inches or more is considered deep plowing but if a turn plow is used, it should not go [more than two inches below the pre I vious seed bed. That is, land that has [been plowed four inches will not [stand over six inches this year with a turn plow and eight inches next I year. Not only is fall a good season for seed bed preparation, but it is an excellent time for working into the land organic matter which is badly needed by most soils. Cornstalks, cowpea and velvet bean vines and other litter, if turned under early in fall, will have decayed by spring. Just before'the fall plowing 10 or more two-horse loads of manure to the acre, if available, should be broadcasted. Applied at this time, it will be thoroughly decayed by spring and ready for plant use. The last step in fall preparation is a winter cover crop. Rye is the safest and surest one and will do well on nearly any kind of land. A fresh deeply broken seed bed is not be?t for rye or other small grains; but in spite of this, rye will make a good spring pasture and much geen or ganic matter to turn under. It may be sowed from the middle of summer to November. Oats and vetch are al so good crops but not so sure as rye. They do well together.-P. 0. Davis in The Progressive Farmer. Change Sows and Pigs to Green Feed Gradually. A reader has a field of "velvet beans ready to put hogs on. Will it injure three sows and their 22 pigs two weeks old, to turn them on these velvet beans?" It will not injure the sows and pigs to turn them on these velvet beans, but certain conditions should be con sidered in changing the feed of 'breed sows suckling pigs. In the first place, it is not good 'practice to turn a brood sow and 1 young pigs on green feed, if she has not been accustomed to it, and allow her to eat all she wants. The change should be made gradually from dry to green feed, or the milk flow may be so stimulated as to cause the young pigs to suffer from scours. When the pigs are older they will take all the milk the mother can produce, but when young they may not be able to do so. Young pigs turned into a luxuriant green growth, especially during wet weather, sometimes suffer from an irritation of the skin. We think it would be a good plan to grease the pigs before turning them into a green growth, especially in damp weather. It is also doubtful if it is the most economical to force these brood sows and pigs to get all their feed from the velvet beans. A very small daily feed of corn or some other such dry feed will probably pay.-Progressive Famer. MEN'S SILK SHIRTS. A shipment of men's silk shirts ar rived this week. $7.50 values at $4:95. .
