NEWBERRY FARMERS COOPERATE. c 8 Clemson College, April 2*3.?The c Cooperative Association of Newberry j furnishes a good example of how easy it is for farmers to get together and profit by cooperation. This association was organized several months * ago under the guidance of County a a oront t M Mills. It has p. Dresi- C dent, a vice-president, a secretary- t treasurer, and five directors. The i sec re tary-treasurer acts as business i manager for the association under the j supervision of the directors. c The association has only a small capital stock,?$1,000 divided :nto 100 shares at $10 per share. This stock has been subscribed by 100 1 actual farmers. The business of the * association is done on a small margin and non-member farmers may buy or < sell through the association on an i equal footing as to price with the i members. However, the members de- t rive an extra benefit at the end of + vo-ar in tVio r?f * During the first three months of its existence the association transactev a business of $40,000. The bulk of this business was in fertilizers, all of which was for cash, the fertilizers being handled directiy from the cars : - the farmers' wagons. The saving to the farmers on this $40,^00 business was about ten per cent. At this rate the annual business of the organization would be $160,000, and the saving to farmers would be $16,000. County Agent Mills, with his usual modesty and conservatism, says: "We hope to save the farmers, during this season at least $10,000. This sounds pretty big on a $1,000 capital, but you must understand that the S 1,000 is just a nest egg, and that the farmers who patronize the association furnish the money to keep things moving." J One Man is Crew of Curious Torpedo Boat. Recent naval tests have disclosed the remarkable characteristics of a new form of miniature torpedo boat, so low in the water that it has almost the invisibility of a submarine, according to an announcement in the May Popular Mechanics Magazine, accompanied by several interesting illustrations of the curious craft. It is operated by one man. It is but 40 l feet long, and weigh 8,500 pounds P with its single torpedo. The entire * L forward half of the boat is the torI pedo chamber, and that part of the ' hull is U-shaped to conform to the big: projectile, while the deck above 5s hinged along: one side to permit the ? fcw?sda-??Lbe hoisted in. To discharge it. ^he whole~1^7TT^ed-Jiiiw^nlate is lifted up like a gate, flooding the ^ chamber and permitting the torpedo to go forth on the power of its own propeller.?Popular Mechanics. ^ ; c Contenment While You Wait. { Browne?So you're raising a gar- j den. ^ Towne?Yes?you see it makes me r more contented! j.

Clemfion Colle^a. April K.?The ontinuous growth of tho South Cnro tna Poultry Breeders* association :s , typical illustration of the fact that olpful associations succeed, while Iioso that do not profit their mem>er? are doomed to failure. The Tesent State Poultry association was Tfaniied in Columbia four years ago o hold an annual Stats Poultry > how, to enable poultrvmen to buy sultry supplies and food through he annual meeting and banquet, and o create a greater confidence in the poultry business and those engaged a it. Seventy members were enrolled he first year and the association took nrer the management of the poultry [apartment of the South Carolina Itate Fair and conducted the first Itate Poultry chow. The success of he show, which placed the name of he owner of every, bird on Its cocp, ,nd had printed cards filled- in with he selling price of all birds for sale, fas Immediate. Owners profited by , he advertising th?y obtained, wane Ire visitors profited by kno-^ng who fwned the chickem they admired and irhether or not they were for *ate. k> successful has this system b<v ome, that last year $1,500 was paid izhlbltors for birds told during the how, and Judge Nixon referred to he South Carolina State 6how as the est managed and best selling show t? had ever attended. In. contrast wnn mti sovouij mnuters four years a*o, flfty-teur new aembars hare joined the Ats-oclatien a the eleven weeks since tlie first <4 anuary and the members for the 'ear will not be less than 250. While he South Carolina Poultry Bro?4ers' .ssociation offers the members several hundred dollars in sweepstakes ,nd cash specials at each state poulry show, this inducement is not the >rimary one in securing and holding , large membership in the -Carolinas nd Georgia. Confidential letters mailed to the nembers mention the kind of incutators, brooders, poultry supplies, oods and poultry magazines that can io recommended after thorough in-estigation as suitable for South Carolina conditions. In some cases as ;r?at a discount as fifty per c?t is offered the members. of the State 3oultry association, and the saving aade by a member on on? transacion will usually pay for many years he annual dues of one dollar.

Remedies Sur^sstsd Clem son College, April 12?With j the coming of spring and fresh pas- J turps a great many farmers, milk j producers, an<l consumers are con* i fronted with the usual, and to a cer-! tain exi.ent inevitable, flavor and odor of onions in milk products. The j presence of onion flavor in milk does ! not indicate that the milk containing this flavor has been produced or handled under unsanitary conditions, nor does the presence of the flavor and odor render the milk nr.v.w !esome for human consumption. But the onion flavor in milk, even to a slight degree, is such a pronounced and unpleasant one to the great msuj jority of consumers mac irora ? coia-1 mercial standpoint all milk 10 affect- j ed is unfit. Creara from this milk j may be used for butter making. though the resulting butter will still retain the objectionable flavor to a marked degree. At a result of this trouble in milk, many producers and dealers suffer every spring considerable financial less, a part of which, at least could be avoided if proper precautions were taken and prepara* tion made fcr the short time during which the trouble arisss. As to remedies and treatment ot "oniony" milk, tfie only sure and effective means lies in prevention. If onions are present in the pasture they must come out, or the milk cow must be kept cut'for several hours prior to milking time, else the milk viU surely have the characteristic objectionable odor and flavor. Should the onions be few, or should they be confined te a limited area, it might be possible and advisable to pull up the plants by hand before seed are produced and thus eventually rid the pasture of them. On the otner nana, j if the pasture Is badly Infested the J only course to follow la to take the milk cows off the pasture early in J the afternoon, at least four or five* hours before milking time. The onion plant, is one of the first! to begin growing in tbe spring, and j' the cow, with her natural craving for j green succulent feed at this season j of the year, is not at all particular j about what she eats while the grai-; ing is so scant. In this connection i a grazing lot of rye or rye and barley, j or clover and barley serves a double; -- -11 a ! purpose. If tfte cow is aiio^cu *1--, eess to *uch grasing lots far an hour j or so eaoh day not only will her milk i flow be very much Increased but her. hunger for green feed will be satis-: fled to such An extent that she will j be more oareful about grazing on! wild onions while In the pasture. The onion flavor In milk !? o*lyj oae, though perhaps the most pro-; nounced and objectionable, of many i food flavors which often get Into milk from the cew. Such feeds as ' rape, rutabages, eabbage and wet brewer's grains, whe* fed either Just prior or during milking, often impart J -?.A Ak^AAtlMftMA ' cjuit? prono^mcyvj uhu y^?""vs,,v*7 flavors to milk. Any of the above!' feeds. however, may safely be fed Just after milking or several hours: before milkinf without affectinf the, flavor of the milk in any way. So It is where conditions make H necssjary to grraie milk cows on enion In-; fested pastures. If the cow* are turned on these pastures immediately; after milking it the morning and then driven up about noon, there Bhonld be little if any trace of onion flavor in the milk. Especially is this true where the cows are allowed to graze on green grazing lots which art, freo from the wild onions or where a j good grade of corn silage is fed as a succulent feed. j Various methods of removing the ; onion flavor and odor from milk soj contaminated have been tried out j with little success. Perhaps the most j common as Trtll a? the most effec-1 tive treatment is that of aeration.! But even with this method, the J amount cf the objectionable flavor j and odor removed is so small that It! is impossible to render contaminated milk free from taint. Summary. 1.
