COTTON" CROP CONDITION'S.
Yield Much Below Normal for South
Carolina.
Saluda, Aug. 3.?According to report
issued by B. B. Hare, field agent
of the bureau of crops estimates,
.United States Department of Agriculture,
the condition of cotton in South
Carolina on July 25 was 71 per cent
of normal, or a decrease of 7 per
cent since June 25. The condition on
July 25, 1918, was 83 per cent or nor
normal, 71 per cent on the corresponding
date in 1917 and 74 per cent
in 1916, the ten year average being
77 per cent.
It is noted that the deterioration
since last report of June 25 was due
to excessive rains and lack of cultivation
inoident thereto. Rainfall was
lighter In the northwestern counties
during the month and the prospects
for a good crop in that section are
very promising. There is much grass
in many sections, especially in the
Central and Southern counties. The
plant has made abnormal growth in
practically all sections during the
past two weeks, the distances between
joints being longer than usual which
would indicate a yield very much below
normal.
Condition reported by counties is
as follows:

DO.VT PULL FODDER.
Clemson College, August 4?A circular
issued by the Extension Service
several years ago on the bad practice
of fodder pulling contains some very
convincing facts and proofs that
should be considered again just at
this time. Experiments on the farm
or Mr. R. Coker, at Hartsville, were
thesource of the facts and conclusions,
some of which are here given.
The results of experiments for four
years on the Coker farm show conclusively
that if fodder is pulled when
the bottom leaves begin to turn there
is a loss of at least 24 per cent in
yield of corn. If pulled when threefourths
of the leaves are dry, there
is about 10 per cent decrease in
yield. The 1913 experiments showed
a decreased yield of 27.3 per cent
when the fodder was pulled early,
and the 1912 experiments showed a
decreased yield of 13.1 per cent when
pulled late.
But the above represents only a
part of the total loss, since much 1
of the loss comes through the effect

on the yield of the next year's crop.
Seed corn taken from a fodderpulled
field is much lower in vitality
then seed corn taken from a
field properly matured and developed;
consequently, when such seed
are planted a decrease in crop yield
necessarily results. And not only
will the yield be lowered but the
quality of the corn also, for an>thing
which tends to lower the yield
will i *-? mnot nococ oonco mnro in
ferior and waste corn.
An experiment to determine just
what loss there would be fr?m
planting "fodder pulled'' corn as
compared with properly matured
seed showed that there was a decrease
of 7.2 per cent.in yield; and
there was 12 per cent of rotten corn
as opposed to 2.5 per cent in the
other, which means a total loss of
16.7 per cent from the use of "fodder
pulled" seed.
Add to this 16.7 per cent loss the ^
first effect of fodder pulling (24 per
cent decrease in the preceding year's
crop.) and you have a total loss of
40.7 per cent. Is it surprising that
the yield if corn in the South Is
so small?
What is the answer? Stop pulling
fodder. Plant more hay and stop
pulling fodder; but to those who
still feel that they must pull fodder,
let this be said: Leave at least two
or three acres of your crop unpulled
from which to select your seeed corn
for the following year, so that yon
may keep up the quality of your
seed and not suffer the second of
the two losses set forth above.
