Sent out 743 circular letters. ' These were sent principally to corn' and pig club members, furnishing in- j formation, pertaining to club work. > 8.

In these communities and clubs, was bought and mixed about 1500 tons at a saving of about $7,500. 9. Vaccinated hogs enough, giving both serum, or single treatment,* and simultaneous, or double treatment, which gives life amunity, to hogs enough, valued at $5.00 a piece would have paid county agents salary several times over. 10. Vaccinated 108 head of cattle i against black leg. Value these cattle at $15.00 each would amount to a i saving of $1,720.00 to stock raisers of the county. Without this vaccine exposed to this disease will, in most cases, contract the disease and be lost. v 11. I had under my superyision 74 boys in corn club work. These boys grew 39^6 bushels of corn at a cost of an average of 61 cents per bushel, making a net profit of $1559.

To ;hese children, I have delivered that many purebred pigs, everyone registered or subject to registration. Some 3f these children have made remarkable records in pig raising. This pig club has put more pure hog blood in Lexington county, than any other project that I know of. The banks have assisted in this work, by furnishing money to buy pigs for some of the children who were not able to pay cash, they gave their notes with father's endorsement, and had use of the money one year without interest. 13. I assisted in worming, pruning and spraying 30 orchards, of 4,500 trees. We have some as nice home orchards in Lexington county as any where. Also a couple commercial orchards. one of 16,000 trees. It is a fine one. We held several pruning and spraying demonstrations in different sections of the county where the farmers gathered and received first hand instruction as how to plant, and care for home orchards. . 14. We have held several demonstrations in soil building, where we demonstrated the growing of both summer and winter legumes to enrich the soils of the county. We are still urging the people of the county to plant a very much larger acreage to these crops, in order that we may reduce the enormous sum of 50 million dollars paid last^year in the State of South Carolina for commercial fertilizers. We are urging the farmers of the county to plant plenty of food and feed crops to supply the county, and be sure we plant plenty. Then grow a little cotton, and grow it as economically as possible. I am urging the farmers to put on what I would call a balanced agriculture. That is to plant plenty of home supplies, and stop the sending out of the state of South Carolina annually $111,000,000 for supplies that we should be growing on our farms. J. W. SHEA AV Count Agent.
