Rev.lday. \.- 1 . tv ™i-x™ ✓ j Mr. Easterby stated his pasture was mowed a few days ago due to his 35 head of cattle not keeping the grass eaten down. y Due to pasture treatment causing good growth, 65 to 70 head of cattle could be grazed on the pasture. Be fore the treatment the pastureland Union ; was practically worthless. * ‘ On practically every farm in Lau-^ rens county there are small acreages of bottoms or lowlands that would make excellent pasture if lime and superphosphate was applied and un dergrowth removed. There are a number of improved pastures thoughout Laurens cotinty and an increased interest in further developing pasture land. The striking thing about applying lime and superphosphate to pasture land is the rapid growth of clovers, apd pattle prefer to graze on the treated area rather than on untreated land.

Helen Foster spent several days August Gardening |August is an -important month for fall gardening returns. One thing should be attended to promptly when wing rutabaga turnips and that thin them to a stanfl just as as possible. This should be done when the plants are ritft over two inches high. It is recomntended to thin them from eight to ten inches part in the drill, one plant• to the dfifl. By so thinning, it will prevent them from becoming shanky. The following seed may be sowed: Rutabagas—plant at once; extra ear ly Purple top,"“White Egg—plant up to Sept. 15; Beans — U. S. No. 5, Stringless Greenpod, plant up to September 1; Beets — Early Winder, Detroit Dark Red, plant now; Car rots — Chantenay, Imperator, plant now; Corn — Stowell’s Evergreen; Trucker’s Favorite, plant now. / We must not overlook leafy vege tables. The following plants should be transplanted at once: Collards— Georgia Southern; Celery — Golden Self-Blanching, Giant Pascal; Cab bage — Charleston Wakefield, Late Flat Dutch for heads this fall; Toma toes—Marglobe, transplant at once. Insects are always on the job— which is destruction to *the garden. Red spider may be controlled with superfine sulphur when the air is still and the temperature is 70 de grees or above. Harlequin bugs (Cal- ica bugs) and squash bugs are two difficult bugs to control by spraying or dusting. There is a powder on the — market now known as sabadilla dust that will kill both. Gardeners sometimes have trouble with blosscm-end rot of tomatoes. Usually this is caused by insufficient moisture. Where practical, tomato vines should be well watered. A good mulch of leaf mold or straw around the plants may be used in holding the moisture. Agents To Attend Conference Miss Louise C. Fleming, county home demonstration agent, and C. B.
