Last year the committee alloted 140 tons of T.V_A. and 40 tons of A.N.L. nitrogen to farmers for an nual grazing and permanent pasture. There is no profit made by handling the nitrogen through the agricultural committee. Defoliate Cotton Many farmers are asking about defoliating cotton to prevent lower cotton bolls on the stalks from rot- tening and to speed up opening. De foliating when used right is profit able. but if used wrong is coetly to the farmer as the leaves are killed as if a killing frost came. Cyanamid dust should not be ap plied to cotton until the bolls of cot ton from which cotton is to be har vested is at least *5 to 30 days old. If applied before that period the bolls will give low percent turnout and be cracked. W. C. Netties and L. M. Sparks. Jr., Extension Entomologists, of Clemson College Extension Service, recommend 20 to 25 pounds of Cya namid applied to cotton leaves while damp. The fertilizer grade of Cyan amid or the Aero dusting Cyanamid gives practically the same results. The fertilizer grade of Cyanamid is no doubt cheaper in price than the Aero dusting Cyanamid, but there is no doubt, difference in the dusting quality or easiness to distribute Those who expect to use Cyanamid to detoliate should check this matter with the dealer as to the fertilizer grade passing through the dusttng machine. Indications are that many farm ers will defoliate their cotton this year due to rank growth, and it is hoped the material will not be ap plied too early and damage the cost ly cotton group. Veterinarian Now Located Dr. William D. Mayfield, veterin arian, has moved to Laurens and lives in the old Mack T. Roper house, 918 West Main Street, across from the West End Grocery Store and the Simpson Florist. Dr. Mayfield has not been able to get a telephone but hopes that one will be installed at once as promised by the local telephone office. He plans to open an otfice in the city as soon as suit able place is located. Dr. Mayfield states that he is well pleased with the practice he is getting so far, de spite the fact that he has no tele phone for people to call him. Special to The Chronicle.
