Huies for Successful Hog H?lsing. 1. Conti brood sows should always hnvo a balanced ration, suillclont ex orcise, and a good hod. 2. Farrowing rails, no matter of what material they are made, will bo worth their cost. 8, .Many of tho pigs aro farrowed between midnight and dawn, and it pays to be there. .1. A good, dry bed, changed of ton, makes up for a lot of othor Imper fections. Plan to have a supply of dry bedding handy at all times. a. Contrary to popular belief, hogs cannot thrive In tilth. Avoid manure piles, dusty stalls and stagnant pools. Probably more troublo with pigs starts with suckling a sow that has boen lying in a stagnant mud bolo than any oilier cause, unless Ic bo dusty pens. 6, Plenty of clean water should bo handy at all times, for tho pig drinks often if be bas the chance. 7. Plan to have clover, alfalfa, ? rape, rye or soy beans al all times on the farm, and cheapen the cost of product ion. (Jet Only Pest Seed Potatoes. Reports from some of the North ern seed potato growing States indi cate that if weather conditions re main favorable, a nuinhoY of the common seed-borne diseases of this crop will be serious this year. Mar ket run seed from this crop is apt to be diseased. Thal Southern potato growers should insist on being supplied wilii "certiilod" seed is thc advice of the plant pathologists. Such seed has been inspected in tho tield for purity of variety and for freedom from dis ease, mid while it Is not guaranteed lo be absolutely freo from disease, it is guaranteed to have boon exam ined by disinterested Inspectors nod to have passed certain rigid tests. It. therefore, is tho most uniformly higa grade seed to bo found on tho mar ket. Thoro may bo occasional lois of uncertified seed which are as good, hut (here arc many others that arc much poorer. Any one who cannot go North to inspect tito crop from which his seed pettitoes come can still have expert inspection if he insists on getting "certified" seed, in order lo he sure, t!ie dealer should bc required to show a copy of the cort i ilea te or other evidence that the potatoes he ROMH aro actually certified for seed purposes. (?rowing Mature Onions from Seed. There is evidence of a considera ble tondency on, the part of farmers in some sections to grow onions for market. Tho horticultural division has propnred a brief circular on the growing of onions from seed, in or der that those interested may have definite information un this subject. Tho following suggestions on varie ties, planting and cultivation are given as of timely interest to pros pective onion growers. Planting.-Pest results will usu ally be obtained by planting the seed during October. However, they can bf. grown very successfully, if plant ed in very fertile, well-prepared soil, in late Februnry or early March, and will produce marketable onions by .J"- middle of June. Onion seeds that arc planted in tue fall will produce or onions and will mature a lil tle earlier than tho spring-planted f:rop. When planted in Hie full the seedlings must bocomo well cainb il .! beforo very cold weather in order that they may not he injured hy the icvere cold of December and January. If the lops tue injured hy ila- cold it will not seriously injure tlie hu las, as growth will begin aga ii. a- soon as Hie weather is, fnvorw blo, Onion tows are laid off from 12 to I.", inches apart and the seed planted in thc drill. Thc seed should he cov ered not more than Vu to of nil inch deep. In spring, when tho on ions are large? enough to handle, they should i?e thinned out to from :'. to i Inches apart In tho row. These thinnings may bo used to fill in any vacancies that may have occurred, !n the row. Those transplanted should have 2-3 of tho lops cut off. Varieties.-Tho host varieties of onions io grow from seed for com mercial purposes arr? Prlzolukor,Yel low (Hobo Danvers and Sol uh port Globe. Those are onions of large size, attractive ap poa ra nco and very mild davor. Borumda onions, of which tho Crystal Wax variety is probably the most satisfactory, will do only fairly well In fha Piedmont roglon, as thoro is moro danger of their being Injured by cold, but tboy do well In tho coastal region. Cultivation.-As soon as tho on ions uro 3 to 4 inches high they should ho cultivated, using an ordi nary wheel hod. It ls very necessary to continuo this cultivation, espe cially after every rain, until the on ions begin to bulb, li iTic onion held is allowed to become baUly In fested with grass or weeds, lt will be very expensive to eradicate . them. Therefore, It ls very necessary to . dos troy till grass, and weeds as soon as they appoar. i Tho Fruit Tree Liar. Prof. A. F. Conrudi, entomologist for '.ho South Carolina Sta to Crop Post Commission, charged with the enforcomont of regulations regard ing nursery stock, is out gunning for tho unscrupulous fruit tree agent, and is appealing to tho buying pub lic for aid in suppressing this dan gerous nuisance Below is Prof. Con radi's warning appeal: "Romomber that it is unlawful for a fruit treo agent to operate in this State without an agent's license. To obtain this license doos not require cash, but lt does require tho agent to furnish satisfactory evidence to tho South Carolina State Crop Pest Commission, Clemson College, S. C.. that he is a responsible man and will comply with tho law. If ho has a delivering point In this State, his shipments must bo accompanied by an agent's tag furnished at cost. "Remember that some of theso agents have wonderful stories to loll about their stock. Are you gullible enough to believe them? We (aro trailing some of them now and we will prosecute without hesitation. We will co-operate with every hon est tree agent who sells what he i ?> resents and will help him in every way possible; but let us all band to gether and show the unscrupulous tree liar thal South Carolina has no uso for him. He has done enou.rh damage. Tho Legislature has made laws with teeth in them to get such cheats, and wo ask tho co-operation of every one In tracking these fel lows io their lairs." Move Child's Bowels with "California Fig Syrup" I lui ry, mother! Even ti sick child loves tho "fruity" taste of "Califor nia Fig Syrup" and it nevor fails to open tho bowels. A teaspoonful to day may provent a sick child to morrow. If constipated, bilious, fe verish, fretful, has cold, colic, or If stomach ls sour, tonguo coated, breath bad,, remember a good cleans ing of tho little bowels ls often all that ls necessary. Ask your druggist for genuino "California Fig Syrup," which has di rections for babies and children of all ages printed on boitlo. Mother!
