Price per annum $2.00, payable in advance. Friday, November 15, 1929 Senator Couldn't Get Here. , ''i It was a great disappointment to liis many friends in this section that Senator Please could not get here for the celebration last Thursday. In writing to Mr H. <j. Garrison, the chairman of the fair committee he said: "On account of the consideration of certain Items in the Tariff Bill which will be of special interest to our people, it is necessary thut all Senators he in their seats or be accounted for hy a pair; and if the cement and some other provisions are reached next week, which they probably will be, it is absolutely necessary that ' he on the floor. In addition to this, I suppose you have noticed the inquiry here as to affairs in the District' of Columbia.- Being a prime1 mover in that matter -and a member of the committee, it is necessary thut I be present. "I am therefore, of necessity compelled to forego the great pleasure of being with you and my other friends next week as I had planned. It Ih a great disappointment to me, because I hud already prepared my speech, with a tribute to Kershaw county and her people and a sketch of the life and character of Judge Kershaw which I was very anxious to deliver." CAMDEN 18 FORTl'NATE Garnden is fortunate in the establishment of a first-class airport, AV'c " congratulate Camden and we envy thein for we believe that while an airport does not mean much to any town at present that it will in the future. Jt is hardly conceivable that the airplane will ever take the place of the automobile for every day use l>ut for passenger transportation the airplane routes are an established business and bid fair to become the greatest means of travel in this countvy. For the carrying of freight and express the air routes should make great progress in the near future. No one has ever been able to predict conditions in the future with any great amount of success hut from what has already taken place it is only reasonable to assume that air traffic will greatly increase during the next ten years.?Lancaster News. ??._ Survey Showtr Large Cows the Most Economic Producers. The small, refined dairy cow may look best, but the big, roomy cow pays most profit to her owner, according to a survey made by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. In making the study large and small cows within one breed were compared, both purely rods and grades of fcvery age being included. On an average the largest cows? those weighing 1,T>00 pounds?exceeded the smallest cows ?those weighing 800 pounds-?by OS pounds of butterfat per cow. Their cost of feed was $20 higher, but they returned $411 more per cow in yearly income over cost of feed. An analysis' of figures obtained in the sui\cy shows that as tfize of cow advanced 100 pounds for each group there was a fairly uniform gain in production of milk and of butterfat, in cost of feed per cow and in income above feed cost. On the other hand, there was slight decrease in the butterfat test, but this was not enough to merit special attention. "Though the group figures always favored the large cows, it was found that many individuals among the large cows in each breed were unprofitable producers and that many small cows in each breed were profitable producers. Therefore in selecting dairy cows of any breed it is not wise to select on the basis of size alone. Size, however, is a factor of great importance." Dairying is coming to Kershaw county and it will be well fot us to consider these points when purchasing cows, states Henry D. Green, County Agent. According to figures gathered by the South Carolina Cotton Manufacture a<-ociation and published - w11 k, the average wage of cot : n..'.'. operatives in this state - Tbe-c figure are based ot : a, ; !>! .of J! mill- scattered - a1?'.

South Carolina cotton mills consumed 99,810 bales of cotton in September. Locates at Kershaw Collect Seed Loans Mr. J. P. Miley, field agent farmera seed loan department of the UnL ted* States Department of Agriculture was in Camden Tuesday and tells us that he will be located at Kershaw for the purpose of collecting up the loans made to farmers 'for seed last spring. Kershaw is. - more centrally located for the territory he serves, and those who want to get in touch with him can do so through the office of Henry I). Greer), the county agent. Mr. Miley tells us that it is very important that the farmer* repay this money as early as possible. It; depends altogether on how they pay up this loan as to whether the department will come to their assistance again should the occasion wurrunt another loan, While here he gave out some figures showing the amount borrowed and what had been paid back so far. South Carolina shows up as well as any state with the exception of Georgia. South Carolina fanners borrowed $1,322,794.60 of which 01 per coPt or $H 12,417.90 had been n.-.id hack up to November 1, 1029. kc:haw county borrowed $17,072.7.6 of j which $0,624.80 or only 37 per cent has been paid back to November I. North Carolina had paid only 28 per cent up to November 1. Virginia had paid or)ly 11 per cent; Florida had paid 66 per cent; Alabama had paid 47 per cent; Georgia borrowed $2,122,120.09 and has paid back 31,021,649.76 or 77 per cent. Recapitulation for all states: Amount loaned $6,643,290.84, amount collected $3.403,476.03 or 00 per cent, interest paid on loans $88,577.10, total collected $3,492,053.09, balance uncollected $2,139,814.91.

INCREASE COTTON YIELD BY UftING A ROTATION Clemson College, Nov. 9.?Tlfct ber. eflt of crop rotation, even ovei a short period of time, is admirably shown by u 20 per cent increase secured in a test couducted on the fsnr of Messrs. W. B. and J. A. Fletcher in Marlboro (bounty in 1028, says Br. T. 8. Buie, head of the agronomy division. "The experiment was begun in 1028, one series of plots being plan' | ed to cotton continuously and toother* to a two-year rotation of <. '* ton, corn and soybeans. The sair,e fertilizer treatment was made to tin? two sets of plots. "In 1028 cotton followed the corn and soybeans which were planted for soil improvement on the rotated plots ami cotton followed cotton on the continuous plots. The average yiehl secured on the plots planted to continuous cotton was 1,400 pounds of seed cotton per acre. This was a very satisfactory yield, but oh the adjoining plots, under conditions a nearly identical as possible axcc; that corn und soybeans were in tl >. rotation, the yeild was 1,085 ponplof seed cotton per acre. A clear ga n of 285 pounds of seed cotton^ p. i ai re was noted for the rotatlouy evi ' though it had not been in effect but two years." \ ? Proper rotation of crops and soil building are two of the most fundamental needs of Kershaw county farmers. It is advisable to use a < gunie in the rotation wherever po> sible, states County Agent Green. ? " ? ~T" / Wiley R.
