"There is no state fa in the United States that can raise a 1) horse or mule or pound of pork or dairy products or pound of mutton any cheaper than can be done in the State of South Carolina. We now know that the boll weevil will invade South Carolina, for he's here. And it now behooves the people of this state c to diversify their farming so as tole raise everything that the farmer will need for food for himself and family and for live stock on his farm. What Jij' little cotton he grows will be his own'and he will be able then to name his own price. In fact diversified ag riculture is the only system by which a farm can be made a business inter- - prise. Now, let's see if the above statement as to the cost of raising colts is a fact: "A farmer needs only one andl one- ! quarter acres to pasture andi~ riise all ! the feed a colt will need from the time it is six months until it is threI i years old1 and ready for the collar. Howv would I planit thmis land to d(10! this ? I wvill answer iroim experienice. Sow thme one-quarter acre in llerumda grass and the acre lot in oats. wheat i and vetch. Sow by Octobier 10 and cut about May 15 when the grain gets.n the 'dough' state. Immediately bre ak this stubble and plant in corn of ! some early variety. "I would build a stable in one cr rer of the grass lot and make a loft to hold two andl one-half tons of hay, s to have the feed handy, I would r duce the fertilizer andi improve the lot every year. At the end of threI years when the mule is sold I wvould ll have at least $35 worth of feed on hand. "Instead of a farmer buying a imnle every year or two, he should raise at ! least one or two every year'. The mares wouldI perform about as niuchlii farm wvork as mules up to the veryiv foaling time andh the farmer would ! be saved the expense of buying fresh stock- from time to time. "I have been farming 39 years and I have never bought a hoise and I ! dhon't use mules. I bought a filly colt for $30 before I was marriedh and I - have raised every horse that I have used on my farm ever since. '[herei i no good in a mule when lhe lies (Iowa ! and (lies, but a mare will leave the farm well stockedl when she goes and i will have done as much wvork as the ! muleCs. "The amount of money sent out of i South Carolina for niules and hiorses is a shame, when we considler that it could all bo saved, and that we would by raising more live stock grow more grain at home insteadh of buying it ! also at fancy prices. Recently I had some of the inspectors of this dlepart- !! ment to take a census of mules and horses bought in snic of the on I DR. LYNCH SPEAKS AT MEDICAL MEETING Asheville, N. C., Nov. 10.--That the short-sighted American policy of underpaying instructors threatens not only the nation's intellect, but al so its life. was intimated by Dr. I Kenneth M, Lynch, of Charleston, S. C., whose discussion of the "Medical Teacher" was one of the features of the the many conferences of the Southern Medical Association, in ses sion here. The general association opened with the largest registration in its history for the first day, 1,000 members being present. l)r. Lynch told his colleagues that the existing condition, which, he said, was deplorable, resulted in men act ing as teachers in Southern medical colleges for salaries of $1,500 per year, whereas they ought to have at least $5,000 salaries, he said, causing many of the teachers to seek other work and itnerior men to seek posi tions as teachers. L. A. Peprinc, of Memphis sanitary engineer United States Public Health Service, told the national committee on malaria, one of the sections of the general association, that the time has come to stop calling the mosquito by that name. He said the insects should be called birds, declaring that there are several hundred varieties of mos cieitoes. le urged, that the breeding of mosquitoes be prevented rather than that they be killed Railways of the country must prevent malaria purely for economic reasons. H1. W. Van Hiovenbergh, sanitary engineer of the St. Louis Southwestern Rail. road, told the committee, and he illus trated his point by telling of numer ('xis instances where men were sick for several weeks before they knew 'he trouble. - o GOVERlNMENT WILL ISSUE QUOTATIONS ON COT'l'ON AND COTTON SEEI) Washington, D. C., Nov. 12.--To give to producers and others infor mation regarding actual cotton prices in theri local or near-by important markets, the Bureau of Markets of the , United States Department of Agricul ture is inaugurating a cotton price quotation service and will issue re ports from five important points in - the cotton belt. C'oton seed prices also will he covered. The first report is to be issued from Memphis, Tenn., the district immed iately surrounding that print other reports will follow from district head quarters at Atlanta, Ga.; New Or leais, l.a.; Charlotte, N.

GETT, Cashier. Here -are some of the startling res: In .Lee county, 1,300 head bought, rage price $225, total $295,000; lington,.1,200 head, average price , total $250,000; in Sumter county ),000. The inspectors visited the lers an got this inforimation. so horses and mules could have n raised in those counties front ling to three years old under the ten I have outlined, at a cost of D per head, and by that method land all the time would be im ved. I would be willing to make good it any .man would lose who would ow out honestly and sincerely the hod I have outlined. And he will a better n.le or horse than he kl buy in Missouri or West Ten see or Kentucky. To raise good :k mules, it is necessary to have a re to weigh not less than 1,250 to 10 pounds and the best for breeding 'k stock are grade Jercherons, -half to three-quarters full blood Of course, judgment must be d in buying mares of good confor tions, good heads, feet and legs; I bred to a good jack. The offspring I give entire satisfaction if the colt given plenty to eat. The trouble ut raising colts in the South has n that they are put in a dry lot ich . is called a pasture, and the t has to turn the rocks to get a le grass. A colt will not be sue s if you don't give him enough to By the system I have outlined in outset, he will have all the feed t he can eat. If those counties that I have re red to had raised their stock in ir stock in their own barn lots and tures, they would have saved thou ids of dollars directly and many re thousands indirectly. Not in h case, but in a general way the .ith has been buying too much on a lit-corn, oats, hay, flour and ba t, all coming from the Vest to be id for in the fall of the year. And it's the very reason why the pric< cotton has always been depressed st think. 'If we had no .pplies to pay for in fall of the year, our cotton would ours, not somebody's that neve: meed a hand to make it. Therefore ;ay: "The boll weevil is our friend.
