Says Utilize Forages To Best Advantage Ckmson College, July There is ? ar, in ueing forage crops to get 1 most out of them, states Prof. I , v Starkey, animal husbamlnian, ' .ho th?>ks that the value of suceuZ palatable forage is often underotti meted and that frequently it nutans ? saving of one-third of concentrates necessary to make a given mount of gain. ''Soybeans may be grazed down so rlosely that they will 'not put out .train" says the specialist, illustrate Sr his point. "As soon as two-thirds of the leaves are grazed off, the hogs my be shifted to Another lot and the rtated lot given an opportunity to come out and be ready for a second grazing- If the number of hogs is not sufficient to graze off as many as two-thirds of the leaves, the lot may be?grazed continuously. i "It is the general opinion that if Sudan grass is kept,clipped with a mowing machine and allowed to put out new growth, the hogs wilt relish it more and make better gains than if it is allowed to grow tall and woody. The same, thing is probably true ',(f the winter forages when the spring growth becomes rank. "It i- a mistake to allow a few hog- to graze a large field of forage on heavy clay soils While the soil is wet, Limited acreage may be grazed ^ hile the land is wet, especially on lands which contain some sand. "Rape, which furnishes good grazing on fertile soils, should not be allowed to grow top tall. If mowing . machine or scythe is used to keep the plants cut back, the growth will be less woody and more succulent. "The carrying capacity of coarse forages is frequently misleading. If. the forage is so coarse and unpalatable that the hogs do not consume it readily, it is of little value." Gates Hill Club Met The Gates Hill Home Demonstrationtion Club held its regular "meeting Thursday, July 6th, with seventeen members and 8 visitors present. Mrs. Tidwell gave a very interesting report from the Short Course. After some bu>iness was discussed Miss Atzkr.za. a girl from the Philippine Islands, who gave a brief but interesting talk concerning extension work in her home country. Then Mrs. W. C. West told in a very pleasing manner how to make bird baths and bird houses. During the sociaJ hour games were played and the hostess served cake and iced tea.

Stre.ni. and Kiah-Kormer Statu. formerly all of upper South Carolina abounded in fish as well as in [fame. Brook, or speckled or mountain trout, native to this country, were plentiful in the mountainous streams of Oconee, Picikens and Oreenvillo counties, as the records of Mr. C. L. Newman, of Raleigh, indicate, u|> to 30 years ago. In the upper Piedmont creeks and rivers were to be found an abundance of black, bass, the "trout" of most of South Carolina, Eastern pickerel, or "jackflsh," redbreast, bream and other tine pan fish, just as abundant as they were in the southern and coastal parts of the state. In those days all of upper South ( arolinu was heavily wooded with valuable forests. Old writers nven.tion the "unbelievablo extent and density" of these woodlands. Possibly few of our sportsmen ynd other interested poisons realize that these wooded areas had any bearing on the fiesh life and the flow of ou? upland i streams. ! 4As a sample of this former stream flow, Simms' geography tells us that the Saluda river, now a shallow bod of rock throughout its entire length, 90 years ago was navigable throughout old Edgefleld district, which went up into McCormick county, to a boat carrying fifty bales of cotton. In those days,', the science of forestry, -iVhich tells of the value of wooded areas,., not only for timber, but in regulating the flow of streams, prevention of erosiojT'SWtt supplying fish food, was practically unknown and not at all practiced in South Carolina. Protection of watersheds, which regulates stream flow, is now recognized as one of the leading functions of forests. So long as the heads of the streams, or watersheds, are surrounded by woodlands, th? streams flow boldly and evenly, which, of course, is the ideal condition for fish. The plant life attracts insects which provide the fish with food, falling into the water from branches or beingwashed by rains. Soil erosion is prevented, keeping the streams clear. When the forests were cleared away from the rich soil to make way for farms and cities, many springs dried up. The flow of the streams was greatly cut down. Rainfall was not retarded by vegetation, so that the water ran off swiftly, carrying fertility with it, and washing away practically all fish food that clung to the rocks of mountain Streams or to the banks, at lower levels, or that would have drifted slowly so fish could uae it. Also, water vegetation was reduced. From the same causes, in times of drought, many streams now have insufficient water and practically no food for fish. In addition to this, many manufacturing plants now dump refuse into these streams, adding pollution to the other destructive conditions. Fish go with forests, and when the forests were destroyed by early settlers whg believed they were unlimited, most of the fish went with them, man putting on the finishing touches, as will be discussed later. ii>' 1 Twenty thousand applications have flled notices as wanting work on the Muscle .Shoals projects.

I think it 1m fine to be able to pray J in public when called upon to <io so. It seems easy, but I believe it is very! (litlieu 11 to the untrained and I am! like that. I have never felt that I "could make the grade," and I am not expected to make public prayers at my church or anywhere pl$y. ..A few Sabbaths ago, u' friend call-J od by and picked me up and took me to his church. It was a strangeI church and ho is a praying man. I Nothing suits him better than to be called upon to lead in prayer. He took me in and sat me down in the amen corner. That's where he sits! regular. : . I knew very few. members of the I congregation and had only a casual! ^quaintance with the preacher. Af-I ter the first song, I began to realize! that I occupied a very dangerous po-| sition indeed and was liable to bel called upon to pray, I began to sweat! and perspire. The preacher... .seeingI me with blder Jones.., .certainly ex-j pected me to be a praying-in-public| guy. ..I didn t know what to do. My face! turned as red ns a lipstick and my! nose began to itch and my eyes were] j running water. I was sick at the! stumniick and otherwiso uncomfort-j able and my clothes were too tight] all over and my left shoe was pinch-] ing my big toe something terrible. I ] tried to help sing the next song, but ! my mouth was so dry I couldn't utter a sound. ..The preacher got up and opened] his Bible and read a few verses and announced?-"Brethren, we will now] have a siege of prayer." lie started the "siege" off. I knew he was going] to call on me just as soon as he got] thru. I thought once of fainting so's I wou^d be carried out. I suffered pangs -of death during those minutes. ] His prayer ended and he called on Bro. Brown who was sitting by me. ( . .1 knew my time had come. I began] to try to think up a nice short prayer. The only thing that sounded prayer-] ful that crept into my mind was: "o| Lord, make us thankful, for these and all other blessings." In another sec-] ond I found myself repeating. . . . | "Now I lay me down to sleep." That's the only prayers I could possibly] think of and I was sweating faster] and faster. ..Bro Green prayed next. He was 2] seats off. I saw the preacher watch-] ing me from the corner of his right] eye, and I knew I'd be next. I twitch-] ed and squirmed and wiggled, and ] you could hear me breathing up in] the choir. The. suspense was awful.] I was sick enough to die. When I came to a minute or so later, I had ] torn 26 pages out of .a song book and ] was chewing up the backs. About] that time, the preacher took his text] and then came the collection. I was ] thankful for all blessings and dropped] in 2 dollars, every cent I had.. In 30 ] minutes, I was a normal human being.] That'9 the closest shave I ever had] except the time the train ran into my] car. | ..There are two distinct kinds of] reckless drivers in the world today,] vizzly: the guy who pokes alonjg in] front of you to show you how slow] he can drive, and his brother who] squirts by you at 75 m.p.h. to show] you how fast he can drive. As for] me and my house, give me the fast-j idiot every time. COTTON LETTER I NEW YORK, July 12.?Bombay reported rain in the Red Sea region after the close, and that's why Liverpool came in higher than New Or-| leans, however, the feelings of the bears were not hurt as they were expecting boll weevils in Texas last fall at 4 o'clock, and the decline had been discounted in Manchester, and probably elsewhere. October eased off in sympathy with Wall street when call money advanced from Mitchell to Morgan. Bonds were stronger than usual when the pound sterling reached a new high for the season, therefore we advise straddling till one day next week. ..A railroad commission or a public service commission has no control :>ver telephone companies and public utilities except when rates are being raised. In other words, this portion 5f our government has the power and authority to raise rates and permit service charges, etc., but just try to put rates down if you please. Maniamuses and all other kinds of dammus-ses begin to clog the supreme " :ourt from the front door to the row >f spittoons in front of, the judge's iesk and that's the end of the beginn'ng. War-time rates and depreslion service, plus surcharges, are the uling factors today. ..Franco reminds me of 'Bud Smith. He rides in a Cadillac, plays golf 3 times a week, spends the month of June in Canada, July at the beach, and August in the mountains; keeps : a butler, 2 cooks, 3 chauffeurs, 4 gardeners, and 2 door-men, btrt he won't pay his grocery and doctor bills, j or renew his notes at the bank. There's no more excuse for cancelling I those foreign (after-the-war) debts than there is to cancel all Liberty Bonds and taxes. . .It's just how you look at it. Billie Crumb ran down the street the other afternoon with nothing on but BVDs and sandals. Bob Brown decided to walk down the street with nothing on but BV.Ds and shoes and hat. The probate judge had .Bob on the way to the asylum in 5 hours, but Billie was being hailed as the coming marathon-er of Hoopersville. ..It seems that 3.2 beer has 'begun to register a few kicks.

The Fourth of July was celebrated at Winnsboro by a Home Coming for all the people of Fairfield county and the opening of Fortune Spring Woods as a public playground for the whole county. A swimming pool, fed by the spring has been completed, an American Legion headquarters building is to be opened and a Boy Scout camp and hut are to be provided. The site has remained intact for a century and was willed to the town by a negro named Fortune, who was the body servant of 'Oaiptain John Buchanan during the Revolution and later of Lafayette, to whom he was loaned by his master. In 1825 Fortune made his way on a mule to Winnsboro to see Lafayette again. He lived on the place given him by his master unt^l his death.
