Two Economy Plans
To Winter Beef Cows
Glemaon College, April 11.?The
secret of economic beef production in
South Carolina liecs in carrying the
breeding herd through the winter at
low cost yet without losing much
weight, says Prof. L. V. Starkey,
cilia#-"animal husbandman hero, who
tolls us the secret at this season ho
that proper preparations to this end
may be made' during the growing
season.' Two methods the specialist
gives briefly for carrying cattle
cheaply through winter.
One system calls for dividing tho
corn land into two parts, planting
Corn and velvet beans in one part
and corn alone in the other. The
corn land which has no beans is to
bo seeded to rye early in October.
The corn from the velvet heart' area
is to be snapped in fall and the
cows grazes! on the velvet beans for
the first half of tho winter. For tho
last half of tho winter they may be
grazed on the rye area. During
periods when the land is too wet. for
grazing on rye the cows may be maintained
on the stover which has been
harvested from this area.
Another system calls for planning
now to hold in reserve certain graz-1
ing not to be used until winter. The
plan is to hold in reserve two acres
of good Bermuda grass per cow. This
should not be grazed during tho latter
part of the summer. When tho cows ;
arc turned on this pasture they are to.
bo fed enough cottonseed meal or j
cottonseed cake to keep them from I
losing weight. If the pasture is good, i
three pounds of cottonseed meal per j
head per day should bo sufficient.
Kconomic wintering should enable I
the farmer to sell a crop of calves
each jfear and realize a net profit of
at least $10.00 per cow,'Mr. Starkoy ,
concludes.
James Daer, 31, notorious Louisiana
convict, who refused to stay behind
prison bars, is dead. He was killed
by a guard when he made an attempt
to get away Monday night.
Aged Educator Dead
Bishopville, April 12.?Charles M.
Furman, former head of the depart- |
ment of English at Clemson College, I
died late today at the home here of j
a daughter, Mrs. W. M. Herbert, of'
a heart attack. He was 93 years old. '
Profesor Furman, who retired from
the Clemson faculty some years ago,
had been active and in good health
until about three weeks ago.
General News Notes
South Carolina mills use more cotton
annually than is produced in tho
state, J. Hoy Jones, stato commissioner
of agriculture, commerce and industry,
said in an address at Columbia,
owing to the growth of manufacturing
being faster than that in
agriculture. The 2118 textile plants
in the state, lie cited, employ 00,032
men and women and pay out $40,004,007
annually in wages.
0. A delegation including Speaker
Vlibson, Co}. J. Monroe Johnson and
others, made an argument, apparently
successful, before the PWA for an allotment
of $325,000 to build a bridge
and approaches six miles long over
the Peodeo river at tho MarlboroDarlington
county line, where a ferry
has operated since the Civil war,
called Cashua ferry. It would ntake
a shorter route from Hodnettsville
south.
A report made to tho American j
Hankers Association convention at
Hot Springs, Ark., shows that during
a period of six months 87 persons
connected with banks were killed and
73 wounded by bank bandits in robbing
banks over the country, and that
money losses totaled $1,257,000.
Prof. Vernon Cook, of the University
of South Carolina, killed a 34pound
wildcat in his room at Columbia.
A charge of stealing an automobile
was preferred against Webster Manton,
bridegroom of six weeks, in a
warrant sworn out at GetTney, by his
father-in-law, W. H. Potter, promi- .
nent planter of the Ashworth community.
Mr. Potter told officers his
daughter gave Blanton a check for
$3,500 with the understanding that
Blanton was going to Shelby, N. C.,
to purchase material for the purpose
of erecting a new home, instead of
going to Shelby, Mr. Potter said,
Blanton had the check cashed and disapjx'ared.
Richard K. Park, 10 years old, died
in Spartanburg this week from aniline
poisoning,Ccftbised by spilling a lot of
the dye on his leg while working in a
j printxn;oom at Lyman. He became
I unconscious in an hour and a half,
and died live hours after the accident.
Aniline prevents the blood corpuscles
from carrying oxygen, when absorbed
I into the body through the skin.
Wilbur Yoliva, overseer of Zion
City, 111., and he that professes to
believe that the world is Hat, took
away the school books of 400 school
children and sent the children home.
There's row on in Zion City, but Voliva
excused his actions by saying
that the school district is without
funds to carry on.
Lawrence Gainey was held by the
coroner and jailed at Darlington, for
killing a child throe ye?ars old, by hitting
it with his automoibile.
