He pointed to them, recalled their heavy rainfall, the streams that came from them, and the potential water power there. He called attention to the ma- ny small farms and the native stock of hard-working folks on them. He pointed to the cotton fields that spread from there ,to the coast. Then he said, “Watch this area.

They esed various rate. H. J. Z.eg- ler nscd 200 pounds of the 4-10-6 in which a half pound of each of these poisons had been added. His was on very bad wire worm land.. Where the poison was used he got 20 bushels per acre. Where no poison was used he got no corn at all. At Clemson’s Edisto Station at I Blackville a half pound of chlordane per acre with fertilizer gave a yield of 26.5 bushels pef acre. The check J with no poison under it made only 15.3 bushels per acre. County Agent Shelley, of Barn well put on a test with it on one farm. There three-tenths of a pound of BHC under the corn with the ; fertiliser gave a yield of 26 bushels ] ! per acre, while that without the poi- ! son made but 5 bushels per acre. This year a lot of this fertilizer with bits of these poisons in it is being used. And the Edisto Station is continuing its trials under various crops. We are wondering if this thing might work against such trouble some things as root lice, bud worms and white grubs in the soil. Surely we are maki»g progress in humanity’s fight against bugs. In last year’s tests, the worse the wire- worms were, the greater the differ- ; ence in yields. In all cases it seemed to control them. Our Advantage By the first of February the bliz- j zards out West had killed 81,000 cat tle and 97,000 sheep, according to] government estimates. And in addi tion, they had weakened and half- starved countless thousands of oth ers. The calf and lamb crops from j the stock that survived is thought; to be seriously affected too. All of 1 this had happened up to February 1. That month too saw a whizzbang. of additional snowstorms and bliz zards in that stricken part of the great cattle country. And while all of that disaster was striking, the Southeast was basking in a spring-like winter, during which green grazing flourished! Yes, our advantages are real. Not imaginary. Community Tree Plantings Years ago towns and communi ties in the Old Country put opt corn-] munity forests. Now these are sources of wood, lumber, and public revenue. Timber has been so plentiful in this new country of ours that we haven't seen fit to do anything like that. But we are approaching that point now. And our forester, Bill Barker, tells me that 32 schools and one church in 22 counties made the I start in this direction the past win-1 ter by setting out 73.000 pine aeed- ings on lends set aside for that pur pose Student labor was used.
