It remained for a Massachusetts
man to come down here and study
our situation and take the initiative
in the matter of seeding for re-for?
? X * estation. We are carrying a news
story in another place where Mr.
Henry l\ Kendall, of Boston and
Camden, will soon begin setting out
pines,- walnut and other seedlings on
quite a vast tract of land owned by
the Wateree Mills of the Kendall
Manufacturing Company, involving
an expenditure of thousands of dollars.
Mr. Kendall is vitally interested
in the Carolina*, operating
large plants at Camden, the Mollohon
and Oakland Mil)* at Newberry, a
large mill'at Edgefield and thelThrifi
Manufacturing Company at Paw
Creek, N. C., makers of Curity
-. . Gauze, used in hospitals all over the
world,,
--- it hi to be hoped that ho has set!
in motion a plan whereby many of
the abandoned trncts of land throughout
the south Can be re-seeded and
' made to bear timber, resin and turpentine,
which once constituted one
of the greatest naval store industries
^ of the South. It furnished employment
for thousands of laborers, who
since the abandonment of the forests
have drifted to other pursuits.
The chief drawback in this undertaking
is said to be the lire hazard,
but we learn upon j^nd authority,
that there are men who own thousands
of acres of land adjacent to
Camden who expect,to let it grow up
in timber, and if enough can t>e interested
iu the re-forestation program,
that a government lookout
will be built here to watch out for
forest fires and stop them in their
incipient stages.
SOl'TH CAROLINA AOAIN FIRST
J. J. Whilden, of Sumter wins
twenty-nine first prizes out of thirty-one
on his Rhode Island Reds at
a poultry(show at which the field was
the United States and Canada, the
meet bei,ng held at Toronto, Canada.
It ^ioems when South Carolina really
tries she comes out first in all departments
of life. Qne day John t.
, Patrick, of White Oak, Fairfield
county, wins first place among 400,000
4-H Club boys, and Gerald II.
Preacher wins first place among essayist
among contestants from the
universities and colleges of the Southeast.
So the list might l>e lengthened
from the highest per ccntago of Congressional
medals in the World War
to greatest yields of corn. A great
, little state is South Carolina, or at
least it has some great people in it
? maybe not enough to put all of the
other "across," hut still an encouraging
number af great people.?Columbia

Every poultry fancier in the United
States and Canada has heard of
or will hear within the next few
weeks of Sumter, South Carolina, if
they did not know of the existence
of such a place. J J. Whilden and his
prize winning Rhode Island Reds at
the Toronto show put Sumter on the
...ap of poultry worid in the most
-striking manner. The poultry journals
of both countries .will carry the
news of his pre-eminence as a breeder
of the finest Rhode Island Reds
in the world and his town and state
will receive the sort of publicity that
U -<> Worthwhile that its value as
advertising cannot be estimated in
dollars. Sumter has become, through
Mr. Whilden's achievement, the capital
ci'y of the Rhode Island Red
kingdom, and he merits the hearty
congratulations ami sincere thanks of
h;> fellow citiz.T.s, Sumter Duiiy

Fertilizer Cover Crop
Bring $5284 per Acre
Clemuon College, Nov. 30 -An expenditure
of $13.24 per acre for fertilizer
and a eover crop will give a
return of $52.84 from cotton field#,
declares K. W. Hamilton, extennlop
agronomist, who aay* Mr. Boyd Atkinson
of Marion County has harvested
five acres of cotton that clearly
shows the value in dollars and cent#
of the application of the fundamental
principal# of soil, fertility. Research
work ha# #hown that the turning
under of a legume crop will not
only directly increase the yield of the
following crop, but that it will a)#o
give the soil the ability to utilJ^e
added commercial plant food# to a
much greater wfuH^nciu^
"Mr. Atkinson used Austrian winter
field pea# a# hi# cover crop, and
a home mixture of^OO pound# of acid
phosphate, 200 pound# of nitrate of
#oda, pnd 50 pound# of muriate of
pota#h per acre a# hi# fertilizer,"
continue# Mr. Hamilton. "The cotton
that followed neither fertilizer nor
cover crop co#t $10.40 per acre to
grow up to picking time and gave a
yield of i d und lint r.'u'".' ; $ "1.
C<gt'?r. t< I'r-v'.iv- a oyer crapf, : v.i
with > ,ettilt/.ei, cost $14.52 per
acre and yielded $24.25. When the
home-mixed fertlizer wu# u#erl without
it cover the cost was $10.52 per
acre and the vulue $30.50.
"When the fertilizer was used
where a cover crop had been turned
under, the cost per acre was $24.00^
and the yield was valued at $01.35 per
acre. In other words, the $4.12 spent
per acre in putting in a cover crop
gave a return of $15.75. Fertilizer
alone, costing $0.12 per acre, gave a
return of $22.05. Cover crop and
fertilizer together, costing $13.21 per
acre, gave a return of $52.K1?'J
Local Experiments
The one thing that Kershaw County
soils need most is humus. The
two best ways to get humus are by
first using a legume crop and second
! by manure.' Mr. <L F. Watts, of near
Lugoff, made 52 bushels and one peck
j of corn per acre following Austrian
winter peas turned under just before
planting the corn. This corn also received
good fertilizer as well as the
balance of Mr. Watts' corn. However,
the plot adjoining this 5 aero
demonstration received the same fertilizer
but no Austrian peas, produced
very much less amount of corn per
acre.
Lawrence and Cobart MeCallum,
sons of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh McCallum,
of near LugofT, are members of
the 4-H Club. They planted hairy
vetch on their group acre of the corn
and turned the hairy vetch under before
planting the corn, and made a
splendid yield. One of the boys acres
produced less than (50 bushels per
acre, but the other ones over (50
bushels per aero* These three demonstrations
are on typical upland
soils with their full share of sand
and they clearly show what can be
done if the farmers will use these
modern business methods of farming.
Livestock and legumes used intelligently
will make our fauning successful
and will build our soils to a
higher state of productivity, says H.
I). Green, the county agent.
