Nov. 25.?Recently ( a aeries of evening elass meeting? were held at Blaney high sehool for adult farmers, by P. B. Whters, teacher of vocational agriculture, in1 1 the Blaney school. A study of winter cover crops as soil improvements crops was made in these meetings. The legume winter cover crops, especially vetch and Austrian peas, gave V good results where they were planted and turned under as a cover crot>. In11 one of the tests studied, it was found < that corn yielded two bushels per 'aore where a crop of vetch was turn- j ud under as a cover crop than where j 200 pounds of nitrate of soda was I used and no vetch turned under, | Although the vetch and the Aus! trian peas gave very similar results, most of the farmers are planting the vetch due to the difference in the price of the pens and the vetch. About 1,000 pounds of vetch'seed have been purchased and planted thus far. The fq^wing farmers attended these meetings: Walter Miles, Boy- J kin Rostf? Dorf Rose, J. T. Ross, W. I). Sanders, J.

Starting With Sheep Ciemson College, Nov. 20.?Though the site of flock with which one should start will be determined by the amount of experience, the amount of pasture and feed Available, and the shed or the bam room, it is usually advisable to start with email flock of 12 to 86 ewes, and a purebred ram, says Prof. L.'V. Starkey, chief of animal husbandry, in suggesting ideas about starting u sheep flock. The breeds of sheep best adapted to South Carolina are the Hampshire and Southdown, Prof. Starkey believes. High grade ewes will cost from 112.00 to $16.00 per head, but low grades may be bought at from $6100 to $8.00 per head. In either case a purebred ram is' essential ior real success* r~ Three facts in favor of farm flocks of sheep are thus stated by Professor Starkey: Shelters for sheep should keep the feet and backs dry and prevent drafts. This may be done with a very cheap structure. It is not necessary to grind feeds for sheep for they are the most efficient grinders of. any of the farm classes of livestock. - " -v ~~ . . ":'T " Sheep will consume about 90 per cent of the plants that grow in the fields of South Carolina and 'thdy help to improve the pastures by sleeping on the high bare spots.
