At those meetings it ls planned to group orders for vetch and clover seed so that the best prices obtain? ablo may bo received. At present vetch and clover aro considerably higher than last year, many quota tions of vetch seed being from IG lo 20 cents f.o.b. other cities.

At several pasture field meetings last week there was shown great in terest in pasture building. NOW IS THE TIME to start pasture building and NOT APTER loading up on moro j stock iban can be economically fed. S. L. Jeffords, pasture specialist, With as last week, advises that good pastures) mar . ?' milli up on bottom i ?and n;ul good upi..nd:-? whore tho fol Slowing mixture is Bovril this fal!: . Six pounds BaUls grass, six pounds rod-top or Herd's grass and two pounds white Dutch clover per aero, PO wu during the middle to last of ; September. Prepare tho soil by run I liing over with a disc harrow. Sow each of the grasses and clovers sep arately, then roll with a packing cul tivator or a log rojje-r. If the soil is very loose, roll before and after sow ing the seed. Save half tho Dallis grass seed for spring sowing, scatter ing it over the other mixture in the spring, along with ten pounds of L03 pedeza or Japan clover in tho spring. On medium or poor uplands only j Bermuda and Lespedeza, with a little iwhltOjDutch clover, is recommended. 1 Seed are being ordered now for some pasture demonstrations through a local dealer, and a few others may be Included in the order if notified nt I once. At last quotations lt ls esti mated that seeds will cost about $3.5 0 on acre. All tho grasses and clovers re-seed, and lt will not bo necessary to order again ,nor will it ho necessary to keep the cotilo off these grasses after sowing. Some limo and acid phosphate may be tried as a fertilizer, separately. A Tri-Town Fair. A citizen suggests that Oconeo county should have a county fair that will ropresont the entire county and not any certain part of the county, and about tho only way to do that properly is to have a COUNTY PAIR that rotates each year to a different town. Space for exhibits will bo pro vided under a spacious tent, which tent will bo owned jointly by tho three towns-Sonoca, Walhalla and Wejllminster. Prizes and othor ne cessities will bo oblainod Jointly each year from all three of tho towns. Since Oconeo seems yot like "all flnul-divided into three parts" Ibis suggestion of a rotating tent and ii rotating fair seems the fairest Idea that an unprejudiced mind could en tertain toward a solution of the place to hold a fair, Il is tho only fair proposition for a county-wldo fair that has been put forward, lu tho opinion of tho wriotr. Let us hear from thoso who are interested, What, do YOU think about the matter? Do you want n meeting in your town to discuss lt and ACT UPON this suggestion? lt I? almost too late to act this year, but NOT TOO ATE for concerted action. In'tho first placo, If one town pre pared for tho fair alono Ihoro would not bc near tho intorost taken over the county at large that would bo taken If it were known that all the towns were pulling togother for a real county fair. Then, In the second place, it would fall heavily upon ono town to finance a fair every year all by Itself. pion, in the third placo, a t'rl-towu associatlou would assure the pcoplo that tho fair would function for at least three years, and each town could strive to make the fair better each year. Let your views be known at onco, especially the business men of tho throe towns, for there mus b^ . certed action without dela.> i the fair starts this fall. Tho Doors Aro Open, Tho South Carolina Cottop Grow ers'^ Co-operative Association have been welcoming new members this month ami must soon close the books for the beginning of business this fall. Many heard Dr. Clarence Poe, edi tor ofvUie Progressive Farmer, speak at Seneca a short time ago. Dr. Poe, convinced many that co-operative marketing of cotton, as woll as other 'farm products, was tho right way to do it. "Many people WISH for better cotton prices, but it takes more than r. wishbone to bring them "about, lt takes lots ot BACKBONE and JAW BONE," ho said. Those who do not join the association now, but simply "WAIT* TO SEE MOW IT WORKS." aro comparable to tho slacker who would let others fight for his country and then bo on hand to enjoy the blessings of peace, without having earned them, according to Dr. Poe. Nine Southern Slates will market this fall through their ?o-operatlve associations a good pa/t of the cot ton crop. Tho Trl-Stato Tobacco Growers' Association is now market ing tobarco co-operntlvoly in this State, North Carolina and Virginia. Tho growers rushed in to sign con tracts during a "let-in" period, ac cording to last week's Progressive Farmer. Tho association is giving the farmer a far bettor deal on to bacco, and we believe lt will do tho same for the cotton farmer. There's an opportunity to join your fellow-farmer now and sell W1 TH him and not AGAINST him. Got a ?notract and sig?, lt. Captured 1,000 Grown Weevils. J. L.
