K. Lewis, state veterinarian.

"Judging from the number of applicationa on file, the department will test approximately 50,000 birds this season. "Poultrymen who have not already made application to have thoir birds tested this season should do so at ohce in order that the work may be completed before the beginning of the hatching season. Those interested in the work shpuld write to the Clemson livestock sanitary department, 408-417 State Office Building, Columbia, S. C. It is hoped that all pure-bred flocks in Kershaw County will be tested. Every one interested in poultry should join the Kershaw County Poultry Association.

A dairy and poultry campaign is to be launched soon and it is hoped that everyone in the county will take an active interest. < - BETHUNE-NEWS NOTES Interesting Items as Related by Our Regular Correspondent ??^une, "Now 12?The announcement of the marriage of Miss Mildred Waters to Mr. Claude M.

Old and worn machines are replaced by the most, modern types, ancient business methods are scrapped, and managers and salesmen key themselves to the task of putting now business on the books. The farmer of today knows that he cannot afford to use less efficient methods than those in other industries. If he finds that the returns from his farm are not what they should be, he asks the* reason why. Losses must henceforth be turned into profits. ? Severn 1 problems have to be dealt with in making this change; The low grade fertiliser must go. It is oxpensive to handle 100 (rounds of material to get 10 or 12 pounds of plant-food, and besides, such u fertilizer t jo often becomes a dumping ground for low-grade inert products. No fertilizer should be used which contains less than IB to 20 per cent of plant-food. It is enough to handle 80 pounds of combining or carrying materials to 20 pounds of plant-foci. It is now possible with new materials that ard coping into the market to make a drill able fertilizer that will contain 50 pounds of plant-food in 100 pounds of material. Low-grade fertilizers find no place among tractors, riding cultivators, $-row potato planters, elevator diggers and other modern farm machinery. The highpowered fertilizer, rightly used, 4toe3 well with high-powered machinery. Ac id soils must be limed. There are now hundreds of/y^ thousands of acres of land in Eastern United States, where the yields of the ordinary fnnn crops, such as corn, wheat and hay are much below what they , > II ^ might be simply because such crops as clover, alfalfa, vetch, soybeans and other legume crops cannot be successfully grown ih U> b$ found in the lack of available lime. In the majority of cases a half ton to a ton of lime material to the acre, applied onte in fouror live years, woutit work a wonderful improvement in the matter of legume crops, and these in turn would greatly improve the grain crops. It is true that corn, wheat, hay, cotton and some other crops are supported by the nitrogen gathering crops?the legumes and most of these require a well-ljit)^d soil. Even the potato cannot- b^' grown indefinitely on an acid soil. When this is attempted the tubers gradually diminish in size until the yield is less than half what it should be. The use of lime is strictly a business proposition. One-half ton to one ton of lime or limestone per acre once in four or Ave years is not ex-! pensive, and thousands of the ;iiost successful farmers testify that it pays. ? The cost of production must he j cut. With the keen competition of the 20th Century, farmers are learning what other business men have already Jearned, namely, the importance of cutting the cost of production and thereby increasing the profits. It has been said of the packing industry that it saves all of the pig but its squeal, and it is a well-known fact that the industries to make a critical study of cost of production with a view to utilizing all byproducts with rigid economy. For Success, the farmers of today have found it necessary to consider the following questions: Have I carefully saved and used all the manure that has been pro duct'(I on the place? Have I followed the practice of having seed tested for purity and germination? Has my land always been thoroughly prepared so that the seed has a fair chance of germination? Have I given sufficient study to the problems of farm drainage and crop | rotation? Haye 1 estimated how much I might have saved had I put into practice well-known methods of controlling insect, and fungus diseases? Have I been as careful as I might have been in the matter of neatness and quality and1 quantity in putting l up packages of fruits and vegetab'es for the market? Have I studied the fertilizer requirements of my soil with particular reference to the crops that 1 am growing? * Have I squarely faced the fact that it is contrary to the laws of nature to take from an acre of land, for a period of 20 to 40 years, more plantfood than I return to it, if I would have my yields increase rather than decrease ? The farmers who study these quesI tions most carefully, and act accordingly, are the farmers who survive and succeed. In the process of re-adjustmef.t that is now going on in agriculture, there are many marginal farmers who are bing crowded out and compelled to take other employment. Those ; who are left will more and more op| erate their farms on a business basis, with returns more nearly equal to returns to ?>e had in other lines of business.?By A. W.
