?40E88YCLASON'8 OMONSTRAIN ACEM A couple of our leading farmer wish to ship some hogs to market. be tWqon the first and fifteenth of Oet'o ber.Y These gentlemen have probabli h#lf A car'.- I would like to be assure of enough other hogs to make up F full car. If youhave a few head tha 1 can sell at that time, write mi once and make arrangements abou shining yours with the others. Th( exa41 date will be made known as sooi as Oslble. I '16k for this ma tter of co-opera tive - iirketing of pork to become on( of important phases of farminp int county. We. will do our best to take care o your ipterests in selling these hogl and if possible see that you get th full market price for the class of stuf that you put on the market. Remember, that if you are expect mag to iarket any hogs by the fifteen th of October, they should be gottei off of any such feeds .as peanuts o soy beans and put on a full corn fee< to give them a smooth, hard flesh Soft hogs will be docked on the mar kets, so do not have them soft. Following this shipment I hope t( ship at least one car a month during the winter, and of course more i 6 necessary. If you have porkers for sale writ me and full instructions regarding shipping will be furnished you. Next year is going to be anothe fine year for the farmer to live a home, and for his livestock to live a home. Therefore don't neglect plant ing your small grain crops at the pro per time. I think that most farmer can well afford to plant a few acre of wheat.. It is foolish for us to plan anything like a crop of cotton in 1922 -and we are going to have more lan, than anything else. For your wheat select a good piec of land, nQt Your poorest, and prefer ably one having a fair amount of cla in it. If there is not too much litte on the land prepare it by thoroughl disking with a good disc 'harroi Where this can be done, I prefer it t plowing the land, as we need a firr seed bed for wheat. If necessary t plow do this some time before plant ing in order to give the soil time t settle, and if a roller is available I will probably pay you to pack th land somewhat. I am having a number of inquirie regarding vetch, and am encourage to believe that we will have a fai acreage of this valuable winter legum planted. Planted with rye oroats i makes an excellent grazing crop fo hogs and cattle, a fine hay crop; an best of all if instead of being cut of it is turned back into the soil man dollars vorth of high priced nitroge BATTERIES You have aright to expect more than tbe ordi nary service Giom an Exide Battery. tA DWIN and WOODIRUIFF Summerton, S.

It seens taily certain that the big creamery Will b established in Flor ence.

Therefore, if you have not done so write me for a blank to be filled out by you showing the approximate sur plus that you will have to sell. It now looks very much as though Clarendon County is going to have a hog show this fail. Interested parties have been working along quietly try ing to put over this show, and as said r before it now loolks as though their efforts have not bden in vain. I know F that there are lots of farmers in the county who ha~ve some mighty good hogs. Hogs that would look good in a show ring almost anywhere. But not everyone knows this, so be sure - you have them out at the County Show. It will do you good and will help to make a creditable show. In addition you may win a good prize. The show ring is the place to adver tise your hogs. Good premiums will be awarded fat barrows as well as the breeding stock. Why not select some of your best stuff today and begin now to fit it for the show. The man who has good stock to begin with and then fits it for 3 the show ring is the one that is going to win. Don't ruin the chances of a good hog by not having it in show condition. r This show should do much to stim t ulate the hog industry in Clarendon t County, and a couple of good sows on _ every farm will do much toward mak Sing the farm more profitable than it 3 has been in the past. The premium 3 list and the (late of the show will be t announced soon, as will a list of those subscribing to the fund to be used in putting on the show. I am glad to note that Mr. A. L. Luce has begun work on his sweet po tato curing hous2. This house is to r be built according to the government plans, and should be a success in every way. The house is to be a 5,000 bushel capacity plant, and will be located on the siding near the depot. It will therefore be very convenient for ship ping the sweet spuds. t t W. R. Gray, County Agent. s SIINN[RION N[WS e The cotton crop is far below what t ;yas expected even thirty days ago, r Many of our farmers are only getting I from three to seven bales on from r forty to sixty acres of land. And the situation is becoming alarming, as it a is a fact that many of the land rent ers will not make anything like the rent, and just what the outcome is going to be is yet a problem unsolved. But in discussing this matter with Mr. C. M. Davis, one among our oldest, and honored citizens recently. Mr. Davis said: "There must be spirit of co-operation, or a spirit of live and let live, between the landlord and the renter, and between the landlord and the merchant. In other words it seemed but reasonable that the land lord should take say one bale and let the merchant have one bale, and by so doing, the landlord, the renter and the merchant might be able to bridge over the boll weevil londition. But if the merchant fails of course the renter will be out, on account of not having any one to help him along text year, and of course this will orow the landlord out, as Ie will not have any one to work his land. Mr. Davis further said that he was prae ticing just exactly what lie is pireach ing, and knows that lie is doing noth ing hut h3is duty. We belove Mr. Dais has exactly the right ioea as to the above, and wve believe it is going to take the best mi . and the bc. brains in this country to hold the p~eo. ple and1( the business together for the next few yeairs. And if there ever was a time in thd hiistory of our coun - ry that men should be men, it is this very time. And wve are unwilling to believe that wve have any men in this great southi fhi(d 0f ours who wvill set hback and enjoy the best in life, with a rererve of mioney andl merchiandlise ind let any one suffer in a time like we are~ certainly going to pass through we are certainly going to pass through.

Frank Baker, a young Jew ish merchai.t, left yesterday for Washington to procure a natent on a recent invention of his with which he assuires his friends th it the boll weevil will surely be pit to rout. Fro mthe meagre' informa :on released by Fr:znk it seems t1.it his machine will be operated only during the (lark hours of the night and is equippiel with a light which, when the weevil is disturbed from his peaceful slum bers by a projecting piece of the machine, he will be attracted by the light and fly to certain death and (lestruction. It is possible that local interests will buy up the patent rights and make bumper erops here while the rest of the world continue; to plant cotton to feed the weevil.
