tern of livestock farming as a supple
ment of the production of cotton and
tobacco.’’ ' .
In addition to Dr. Long, three other
authorities at Clemson college assist
ed in a comprehensive year-end sur
vey of agricultural conditions. They
w'ere Prof. H. W. Barre, director of
the experiment station; O. M. Clark,
extension ^economist in farm manage
ment, and W. C, Jensen, agricultural
economist of the experiment station.
They pointed out the low prices for
faTQu.products, falling off of the de
mands ’for these products caused by
the business "depression, and other
signs of “hard t,imes" hn the farm,
and said that something must be done
if agriculture is to survive.
Dr. Long advised the farmers to
first produce more dairy products,
poultry, hogs, fruits and garden pro-i
duce to meet their home needs and
have a surplus to sell.
In conjunction with this, he, Mr,
Clark and Mr. Jensen urged that the
farmers give special attention to the
following points:,
1. Efficient and economical meth
od? of farming, .lowering costs wher
ever possible and keeping the farm
mulea>^ tractors and other farm equip
ment busy as nearly as possible the
year round.
2, Rotation of crops, planting win-

Total capital stock would he $1,-

Mr. Fant made it plain that the
proposal “is for the exclusive purpo.ie
of beihig presented to the
of the Peoples State Bank of South
Carolina and its 'branches, only after
a thorough examination has been
made and the proper appraisal of the
assets has been completed.”
“A consolidated statement,” Mr.
Fant said, “will at that time show the
exact status of the bank’s affairs and
if the depositors wish to consider any ■
plan of reorganization offered by in- j
t^rested - financiers/ they have the ]
right to either accept or reject such 1
