Where ever be Is, .bis clear profits per acre at best are small—and in thousands of cases his crop is produced at a loss. Inveklgatlons made by the 0. S. Department of Agriculture in grow ing an acre of cotton show that the following items cost practically the same regardless of the yield: man and mule laboi*, rent, seed, and im plement depreciation. If the yield be 300 or 1.800 pounds seed cotton per acre, these items of cost rwmain sp proximately the same. Yields of a bale per acre are not uncommon and usually return a fair profit to the grower. Bale-per-acre yields can be made only through proper fertlMza tion. however.

I have been — I am now, and, always intend to be —100 per cent for Pres byterian College. ( B. DILLARD Next to Casino Theatre Clinton, S. C. Last Thursday those students that contemplate the ministry as life'work organized for the purpose of working on the campus as an individual group to better the Christian conditions on the campus and make a study of the Presbyetrian church in its govern ment and other matters pertaining to the ministry. It is the idea of the ministerial club to group together with a purpose that has not heretofore been practiced at P. C. There are many that are go ing into the ministry and do not know the work, the church organization or the problems which they must face in their life’s work. Their aim will be first to aid in campus activities and then make a study of these other matters concerning future work. They hope to carry on a sort of class in some of these problems with a mem ber of the faculty or the pcesideat as leader. Little will be done with this until next year. A committee will be chos en to draw up a constitution so the organization can begin the first thing next year. P. A. Roberts was elected as presiJent, Hazelwood as vice-presi dent, and J. H. Pruitt as secretry and treasurer. There are about thirty men in P. C. that are studying for ministerial work. Around these men a sol’d organization should develop that will take an outstanding part in the life of the elfmpus. No farmer expects hjs dairy cow or hen to produce large quantities of milk or eggs, or his hogs to gain in weight, without proper feed. Like these animals, the cotton plant must be fed, too, if big yields are to be made. D. R. Coker, the famous plant breed er and cotton authority of Hartsville, South Carolina, states: *‘L side-dress my cotton with 200 or more pounds of nitrate of soda per acre;- dividing it into two OT^Sore applications. 1 pre fer nitrate of soda,” he says, “because of its immediate availability and al kaline reaction.” Circular No. 36 of the South Caro lina Experiment Station states that from five tests made in 1928 an aver age increase of 340 pounds of seed cot ton per acre was made from the side dressing of 200 pounds Chilean nitrate applied just after chopping. Valuing seed cotton at 7 cents per pound and “soda” at 12.50 per hundred pounds, a profit of $18.80 per acre was made. !o Side-Dressing Cotton Pays, Says Moss B. L. Moss, of Soso. Mississipl, one of the South’s most successful cotton farmers, deemred In a recent article in “The Progressive Farmer” that “growing cotton under boll weevil con ditions without fertilizer is like fat tening hogs without feed—It simply can’t be done. Cloee observation con vinces me that there is no more cer tain way of increasing yields than by the liberal and lntelllg?rnt u.se of com mercial fertilizers.” For twelve year:" Mr. Moss has found it profitable to side-dress his cotton witb 100 to 200 pounds Chilean 1 Babb Is President Of ^sing Seniors J.’’A. Babb, of Gray Court, was elected president of the rising senior class at a meeting held on Tuesday morning. Babb is a popular man among the students and is a leader on the campus. For the past year he has served as vice-president of his class, and in the recent student body elec tions he was also named as one of the senior councilment for the coming year. Babb immediately took charge of the meeting and proceeded with the election of the other officers. D. D. Beckman of McClellanville, was chos en as vice-president. Beckman is also captain-elect of the football team. Other officers who were named at this time were secretary and treas urer, J. E. Means, Greenville; his torian, L. R.

Cotton side-dressed with 200 pounds per acre remains a rich green In color, sets fruit rapidly, and holds a large proportion of wbat it set. Cotton not so side-dreesed, in my ex perience, tends to turn yellow and sickly In July, and when this happens shedding is sure tu’ be excessive.” Since plants cannot talk the best we can do is to make close observe lions, as Mr. Mo68''has done, and do our best to feed the cotton plant so that it can produce large acre yields, it has been found from experience that the period during the first to second cultivation after chopping is a hungry stage in the growth of the cotton plant. A liberal side-d rest log of Chilean nitrate then will increase 1929 yields and profits.
