-V'-' ^ PAGfijnCHT Faim Outlook b Better For 1940 Demand For Farm Products To ' Be Stronger, Says Extension Service Bulletin. ^ CI««nson, Dec. 31.—“The ^ Agnciri- iuml Outlook for South Ceroline, Stars Of “G<we With *^‘ Wind^ 1940,” is the title of circular 1776 published by the extension aervice of demson college to give farmers and ettter citizens the essential facts that will help in a clear understanding of the fanning stiuation and the eco nomic conditions which effect agricul- tuie. Pointing out that the geneial out look for 1940 is more favorable than iy39 and that the defnand for farm ptxKlucts as a whole is expected to b<' stronger, the circular discusses briefly the geneml situation, the ef fects of the war. and production costs, for 1940, an<^ then pa-esents data and conclusions j’egarding the outlook for \ aiious crops and livestock. ' Oops <liscu.ssed include cotton, cot-1 ton seed, t<ibacco, peaches, Irish pota^i toes, jrvs'eet potatoes, watermelons and tuther truck crops. The livestock dis- <ni.ssions cover hogs^ dairy cattle, beef cattle, work stock and -poultry. In all cases there is infirrmation on supply, <k-imand, and conditio-ns affecting the prospects. Circular 1776 is of course free for the a-sking, and may be had from Vivien Leigh-fright), playing the role of Scarlet 0*fltara in the film version of “Gone With The Wind,” and Clark Gable, In the role oi Khett Butler, shown with Margaret Mitchell, author-Vf the book.
