E. D. SMITH CALLS
A_NNUUAL MEETINI
,South (Carolina Division Cotton Groi
ers' Association For Feb
ruary 5.
Mr. E. D. Smith, president of tl
South Carolina. Cofton. Growers' ass
elation. who is recovering from a r
cent illness, wtis in the city yeste
day.
".I have just returned from t
meetin 1 of the North Carolina divi
ion of the Southern Cotton assoei
tion.'' said Mr. Smitlh. 'The atten
anee was spi:nldi d; practically eve:
counl\ in the .State g'rowinig' Cott<
was represented. The ibusiness men
Charlott e were me i,ent and took
ctiv part in the mein". Some
or 30 warehouses hind been construt
ed during the past year all of whi
were well patronized.
"The outlork for the incoming ye
for the further progress of the Sout
ern Cotton associ.ation is exceeding
flattering. The North Carolina i
vision is profiting by the experien
of the past. and the incoming year w
see an effort made for the negotiati<
of fuiids sufficient in each county f
taking care of the members who w
need mon y on cotton. I hope tih
,every county in South Carolina w
sepd delegates to our meetinw -hi
convenes in the city of Columbia i
FPbruary 5. 1908. It is a;bsolute
essential for the welfare of our c
ganization and for the welfare of o
people that we solve the problem
how to make our cotton the basis
loan, so that we can hold it witho
creatin< too great a stringency
money. The old aim and object,
whidh we are bending every effort,
how to meet the obligations of thc
who own cotton without forcing t
owner to sell his cotton when t
price is not such as we deem a prop
one. This can only be done by conci
of action locally through the wai
house and the local bank. The gi
nens' report, issued today, indical
the final yield of possilbly less th
j.500,000 bales. Yet in the face
this, the future market went off son
thing like 35 or 40 points. It is cc
ceded by all parties concerned tb
the American mills have less cott
hought than at any period for a nu:
ber 6f years. They are attempting
meet this condition by curtailing t
production, that is, running onsh
time. It will tfake an enormous ci
tailing to meet the deficiency in t
supply, for, should thevy con1sume o
million bal'es less th'zn last yea,r, fr<
the present oudoo~k t'h're would st
be from one million to a mili.ion a
one-shalf les t'eau it would take
supply' their "bdn att- ned. From;
the information at my commaa-d, t
baliance of the cotton yet to be sc
is in comparatively strong hands, a
will be uninfluenced by the. fluct
tion in the market until the level sh
-meach that for which they have plh
.ged themselves.
"The election of officers for the
suing yea.r devising ways and -mea
by which to meet the conditlions ti
confront us are questions of such i
portance tas to command a, full
tendairee at our annual meeting
Febru~ary 5, 1908.''
$1,000 A YEAR FROM TURKET
A Connecticut Woman's Way
M~aking Money.
"'White Holland turkeys have a
ded $1.000 a year to my income I
the~ .ast three years,'' Mrs. E.
Munson of Connectient tolM a S
reporter when asked to suggest wa
by which women in the .country mig
make money. "B ing a farm'er's w
and living some distance in the cot
try, 'I am aceustomed to work, so
don't mind putting in my spare tia
on poultry.
"When some seven years ago
decided that I wanted to try maki
money of my own I talk'ed the m;
ter over with my husband and
both agrea.d on turkeys. He had
preference for the bronze. becat
they were the largest and, he h
heaird, the hardiest.
"I had a longing for the wh
Holland, because I wanted som'ethi
ornamental. I hadn 't any oti
reason. and I knew a(bsolutely nol
ing about raising turkeys.
''As t' bein.ning I bought two s
tings of eggs. All the eggs hatch
but so mahny of tlhe young chicks di
that onlyV eighteen birds reached n
turity. There were ten hens a
eighh~ coeks.
*"Fortunately. they were all v
orone birds. I decided to keep
the hens and one of the cocoks I
stocks. selling off the seven othe
My husband had agreed to give
the Iood needed for the first t
vear's, so I invested the money:
eired for my extra turkeys in eg
"When the spring came arou
again I knew quite a good deal m<
a +ou rais inukeys than I 'had I
prviols season. As a consequence
iso many chicks in
compari=oii with the number hatch
e.1 as I had lost the year hefore.
"'The autumn of that year after
selecting my young breeders I sold
the balance for upward of $200. 'The
le mon.y went into the bank, and be
Sfore tile .Ond of the following year
e- by j..r the lair;est half had gone to
r- pay for focd. That. year my profits
amoutet?d to over $300.
e The fourth year I in'creased my
flock and ny profits were more than
a- d 'bled. I: the fifth year I eiea.r?d
1- $1.000 for the first. time. and feeling
-that ny fkk e es hoge M2..l
1 couil comftorta)ly manage I have
i ket the number a)Out th' sami.
nl \ h oug,h I hadl no .-eason fur se
?5 in . \ihite Iolla)nd turkeys bevond
t- my lve of their beauty. I now know
h many i,lts in their favor. The
first is that I believe they suit the
r clImat, ot c0'Cnnecticut better than
.I either the bronze or the ordinary do
v (mestic tt.rkey.
i- "'Then their color enaibles me to
e pick my flock out from those of my
i neighbors. They don't get mixed. and
n when they happen to stray, which is
or very seldom, they are easily identi
iii fied.
;t. They are more (omestie and re
ill quire a -maller range. They are not
ih nrvous. and are so ,gentie that. any
>n one to whom they are accustomed can
ly pick them up.
r. "'Though a size smaller than. the
ur bronze turkey, they are larger than
of the orddnary domestic fowl and an
of ideal market bird. When properly
ut fattened their flesh in yellow, deli
of cate in flavor and very juicy. 'Their
to breast is very large, which is anoth
is er point in their favor for table use.
se "My methods of rearing them are
,e very simple. In he winter my flock
he roots in a large and very airy
er shed and have access to a 'barn in
rt which is kept plenty of good, clean
e- chaff and grain litter. When the
n- weather is unusually severe all their
es food is ~warmed and spiced with
an pepper. For the cold months I use a
of mixture of wheat, b.uckwheat and
t- corn almost exclusively.
n- "They are never kept. indoors even
at in the coldest weather, except in
on case of rain. 'They go out into the
n- snow freely,- although the doors of
to Itheir shed anid barn are' always left
e Io,en for them.
rt "'It has to be admitted that until
--a turkey passes its third week it is ah
e extremely delicate bird, but by ob
e serving a few rules it .may be easily
m pulled through this dangerous per
ill iod. To be successful with the young
1id birds you must see tha.t they have
to plenty of the right sort of food, that
d their troughs and coops are kept
e clean and th:at they are kept from
d getting wet even in the dew.
1id "'For f)od I begi:n with bread sea
a- soned~ w.ithu j per an c urd!s, and let
ll them erraduall,y work into hard grain.
d-As a rule e urkev will begin to eat
grain freely when it is about the size
n- of a pigreon. I .dve wheat 'and buck
s wheat hbefore corn. E,ven to_ grow1
at turkeys I give corn span ng.y, ex
- cept during t.he coldest weather.
t-" Earth en vessels or old iron pans
n make the best tronghds for drinking
water or sour milk. I would never
recommend the use .of wooden vessels
S. for such purposes, as it is next tc
impossilble to clean them, and nothing
of is so sure to breed disease among
fowls as a dirty drinking vessel.
"It is my rule to keep the young
d- birds confined until they are able tc
'or fly over the two foot high fencee of
N. their yard. After this they' are a
tin lowed to ruxn with their mother, but
ys I am careful to keep them in in wet
-it weather a.nd until the dew is off in
Lfe the mornings.
na "As a rule, after.the third wee1t
I if a young turkey has been proeperly
ne cared for it should be able to stand
almost anything. There are some
I years in which care over them should
ig be ext.ended once week and sometimes
t- even three weeks longer. A clear
e season, when there is- plenty of sun
a light, is mueh 'better for young tur
se keys than rainy or culdy weather.
ad "I have been urged to use gluter
meal and gluten feed by other tur
ite key breeders, who say that it is just
rig as good as the whole grain and much
er cheaper. That it is cheaper in price
:h- I must admtit, but it has never beer
proved to my satisfaction tha.t it was
st-, as healthful for the fowls, or that
ed young birds hatched' from tire egg5
ed of gluten fed hens were as vigorou.
a- ",I am foaid of my turkeys, and
rid while I make a point of killing ofi
every chick that is not up to the mark
o- it gives me pain to do it. When therE
all are no puns chicks in a brood it
or makes me very happy. So I am not
rs. wiline to try any food that I am not
a- sure will not inerease thre numbe)r of
to ittle creatures for mel t:o put t(
-- death.
. "iThough I am in the buein'ess foI
add the money and am willing to try any
re little economy that promises a say
k, .n, T .am nont wiliino- to risk 'th'e
health of my birds. Good food pr<
(duces :ood -birds, and even when tb
best food is gen,?rously given thei
is a. fair profit in turkey raising.''
