Lamar Richbourg, a student in vocational agriculture in the Liberty High School, Pickens county, made hay while the sun shone last year and as a result he is today $136.56 better off, representing his net earnings on his two-acre project. The hay was produced in two crops, according to a report on file in the office of the state supervisor of vocational agriculture In Columbia, the first crop being sown iri early fall. For this crop a mixture of vetch, Austrian peas, crimson clover, wheat and oats was used. When the hay was about six Inches high, it was fertilized with 200 pounds of natural Chilean nitrate per acre. The hay was cut when the vetch was in full bloom, making a yield of five tons. Soon after the first crop was harvested by young Richbourg, according to his report, the summer hay crop consisting ot peas, cane and soy beans was planted.

Slowly add to this mixture while stirring soap| flakes or soap powdor commonly used ; In washing. The soap will saponify l the oil and kerosene so that It will | mix well with the water, giving a i "sudsy" mixture. Apply this with a stiff brush to the affected partB of the animal or all over if the infestation warrants. Then clean all stalls and, If possible, spray with a creolin solution?especially the walls and crevices. Even with this treatment, there will possibly be a second outbreak in two ^ to three weeks due to batching of previously ..deposited eggs. ThiB will j necessitate a second treatment similar to tlfe first.
