By using this booklet as a guido our farmers will be able to have green vegetable? all year says Henry D. Green, County Agent. . . > Turnips.?Jn view' the general food situation and especially regtirding Kershaw County's supply, 1 strongly urge that everyone that can do so plant an unusually large patch of turnips. Turnips are planted both for salad and for the roots. When planted for salad, the variety as Seven-top is probably the best variety to plant in fall for early spring use. The ?eed should be sown during October to produce salad during fall, winter, and early spring. This is a very hardy variety and very popular for salad purposes. For spring use, Extra Early Purple-top and Improved Redtop Globe are excellent varieties for both salad and turnips. The rows should be three feet wide and the seed planted in the drill and covered not more than one-half inch deep. If for salad, the plants need not be thinned bilt may be permitted to grow thick in the row. If grown for their roots, they should be thinned to three or four inches apart in the row as soon as the plants are large enough to handle. For Winter turnips the Rutabaga is probably the best type to plant. Rutabagas should be sown 'between August 15 and September 1. The plants should be thinned to eight inches apart in the row. The roots will grow rapidly during the fall and before freezing weather they'should be harvested, the tops cut 'and the turnips banked in soil very much the same way tuj sweet potatoes are banked, except that there is no need to cover them with straw. The turnips are placed in piles containing five to ten bushels each and covered eight to twelve inches deep with soil. The top of the bank should- be rounded and slightly packed, so as to form a good water-shed. When banked in this way, they keep in good condition until March. The banks may be opened at any time, a portion of the turnips removed, and the dirt replaced and nacked as before. Collards.?'Collards are planted very generally in the 'South. The seed are sown about June 1 and the plants transplanted about September 1. . Collards are grown in very much the same way as cabbage, and the j ung plants raised and transplanted in the same manner. Collards do not form hard heads like cabbage, but are very hardy and are never injured to any extent even during our most severe weather. The season for collards is during Dece'mber, January, and February. This is a very desirable vegetable for the South, as it comes in at a season when, as a rule, vegetables are scarce. As the plants grow to considerable size, they should be set three feet apart in rows three and one-half to four feet wide. Georgia is one of the best varieties. Kale.?Kale belongs to the cabbage family. It is very hardy and the seed may be sown in open ground early in the spring or in early fall. It is recommended, however, that they be plapted in fall. The plants will grow off rapidly and furnish an abundance of salad during the fall and winter months and early spring. Kale does not form heads. The leaves are used as salad as the leaves of turnips, it is probably the most hardy and satisfactory winter salad plant known. The seed should be sown in open ground in a well prepared seedbed and covered not more than one-fourth ihch deep. Rows should be three feet wide and the plants thinned to three to six inches apart in the row. Curled iSiberian is probably the best variety under cultivation. Mustard.?'Seed sown in September and October will produce greens, jnder favorable conditions, in five weeks. Mustard is quite hardy and will remain in good condition in the >pen ground throughout the winter. !t is sown and cultivated in the same way as turnips when grown for salad >r greens. Onions.-?.For early spring onions he seed should be planted in the j >pen ground during October. The land ihould be thoroughly prepared by 1 keep plowing, and barnyard manure ipplied at the rate of 10 to 12 tons >er acre. This should be thoroughly worked into the first four or five nches of soil by repeated harrowng. The rows are then laid pfl 15 nches apart and the seed planted in he drill and covered not more than me-h*t*4ac)v-<teep. The young plants will become well established before reezing weather and will not be inured by the cold. As soon as the weather turns warm in the spring he young seedlings will grow off apidly. They should then be thin- v . - -i ' -vr-1 ned to stand not closer than three to four inches apart in the row. Onion seed may also be sown about March 1 to 15, and will produce good onions by the last of June. If the seed are sown late In spring they will make very little growth, and for this reason, where large bulbs are desired, early planting is a^is^d. Galley 2 of green's stuff. | Onions are also grown from sets. These may be planted during October or November, in rows 15 to 18 inches wide three to four inches apart in the row. These will produce bulbs of good size in early spring. Onions grown from seed will always keep through the summer and the follow-1 ing winter much better than those I -grown from sets, and as onions canl be produced much more cheaply from 1 the seed, this method is especially recommended. | Prizetaker and Danvers have proved to be excellent varieties. I The potato or multiplier onions are! always grown from sets. These may J be planted in early fall or early I spring. One set will divide during 1 the season and produce from six to 1 10 medium-sized onions. These keepl better during summer than the other I type of 'onions. Radishes.?Radishes should ' bel planted in early spring, about March! 1. The seed are very strong and, vig-| orous and come ufi in a few days,! and are ready for use in four to sixl weeks after planting. For a succession the seed should be planter! every two weeks. Radishes may also bel grown during the winter months in I hotbeds or eoldframes.. The coldframel usually afford sufficient protection tol prevent injury by cold. Radishes! sown in the open ground during September and October will be ready for use, under favorable conditions, in about five to six weeks. The varieties^ recommended are Early White-tipped Scarlet, Scarlet Globe, Crimson Giant, French Breakfast and Icicle. Spinach.?-Spinach is a very popular salad plant. The seed may be sown in either spring or fall. When sown in spring they should be planted about March 15. The rows should be three feet wide and the seed sown in the drill and covered one inch deep. As soon as the plants become well established they should be thinned to stand two to three inches apart. Fall spinach, sown early in Septem-! ber, will be ready for use during November. The variety known as Long Standing is recommended for spring use, as it is late in producing seed-stalks. Bloomsdale and Long Standing are both recommended for fall planting. For summer planting New Zealand should be used. This variety is branched and should be planted one to two feet apart in rows two to three feet wide. It will produce greens throughout the warm summer months and until frost occurs. The tender tips of the branches are used. In gardens infested with wilt Virginia Savoy should be used as this variety has proven very wilt-resistant says Henry I). Green, C ounty Agent. Good Snake Yarn u u I We have been guilty in our checkered career of telling ~a good many snake storjes, but none quite equal to this one, which is credited to the New i York Times. The editor does ntft j vpuch for the truth of it, and we ^ frankly don't believe it, but it is in- j triguing and entertaining at that, j Here's the yarn: "Driving slowly along a leafy lane a motorist saw a big snake coiled, ready to strike. As he stopped to observe more closely, he saw It bury its fangs in his front tire. Evidently it had pierced the tube, for the tire began slowly to deflate. This was j annoying, but the motoHst soon lost all emotion but that of wonder when he realized the snake's fangs were hollow, for the reptile swelled as the tire went down. By the time some 30 pounds' pressure had changed place, the snake had exploded in a thousand pieces."?Monroe Enquirer. Diphtheria and its Prevention Diphtheria ranks as one of Hie most deadly diseases among children, ? . there being about 100 dying: each week in the United States and Canada, with about fifteen times that number having the disease. About 83 per cent of all cases occur between the ages of two and Ave years. After a child is six months of ago it loses the natural protection secured from its mother and>tta . then susceptible to^he diseases., Therefore, it is scarcely necessary to use any test in a child under six years of age before administering the preventive dose or doses of Toxoid. Where formerly three doses of toxin-anti-toxin were given, now only one dose of toxoid is usually needed since it protects about 87 por cent of those taking it. In about eight weeks after the dose of toxoid is given a simple intracutaneous test is made by which it can be ascertained if the child has an acquired immunity (protection). If the test is positive, that is, a slight redness occurs at the site of injection, then another dose of toxoid is neoded, which is rare. This protection usually lasts until the child is about 16 or 18 years of age, which virtually, . means for life, since as oae grows older they acquire a natural immunity or protection that makes it a very rare occurrence for an adult to have genuine Diphtheria. No child need have Diphtheria since the method of prevention is so simp)s with almost no reactions either local or general. It is to be feared that a vast number of parents will put off having their children protected and let them- become exposed during the danger season from November to February when most cases occur. The protection is neither expensive, painful nor dangerous therefore, see ybur doctor at once for your child's . sake and avoid many times wishing that you had advises A. W. Humphries, M. Dd.t Director Kershaw County Health Department. A special commission will be appointed by the League of Nations at Geneva, whose duty shall be to try to bring a settlement of the differences between Bolivia and Paraguay over Chaeo Boreal, which has been a source of contention and much warring for many years.
