WILD CHERRIES RIPEN IN SOUTH CAROLINA ^ The native wild black cherry of South Carolina is now ripe and hangs in drooping clusters from the trees located along our highways, roads and paths or even on the lawns and In the back yards of homes In our cities. The fruit is about a half-inch in diameter and Is dark red or black when ripe, its occurrence in clusters makes it conspicuous and easy t(, gather. The farm boy or girl is well acquainted with the pleasant acid vinous flavor of the fruit. Our birds, particularly the jays, feast on the fruit, well but not always wisely. They reach a condition similar to Intoxication, i I he white flower clusters occur in the spring and lend beauty to the landscape. In the autumn the leaves turn light yellow and russet in color ,111,(1 ,he tree thereby plays, a promin(,"t part in the riot of color in our woodlands. | The wood of this cherry Is used for lumber which largely goes to the furnj iture industry. A small quantity is | used for Interior trim and paneling. I e bea"ty and workability of wild cherry was well known to the early settlers of South Carolina as many pieces of Gur early and most beautiful furniture was made from the wood of this tree. . On account of the many benefits to , man and wild life contributed by this tree, farmers, landowners, sportsmen and the general public snouki protcc. jfrom lire areas where It occurs. Likewise. it should be given due consideration in cutting of fuel wood and in j oggtnii operations, states the South i t arolina Forest Service.

C. or bv wr|||nR (hp Kxtenslon Service, Clemson. S. (\ Due of the greatest inconveniences of most farm homes is a lack of ade '"'ate Storage space. There should be "mast one clothes closet for each bedroom, a linen closet in the hall ?r near ,h" ?>athroom, a broom closet near the kitchen, and a closet or at least hooks on the back porch or reai entry to provide for hanging outei work clothes.

Ten long term negro convicts who staged a sit-down strike at the Warrenvllle convict camp near here were placed In solitary confinement Saturday, while five of them nursed minor shotgun wounds as evidence that their camp superintendent intended to maintain discipline. The ten convicts, half of them serving life sentences for murder, sat down at the convict camp Friday, refusing to work. Captain W. R. Barkley, camp su-' perintendent, tried persuasion and pleading, but the negroes refused to move. Then he got out his shotgun and fired several blasts over their heads. When this failed to produce results he fired bird shot into the group of ten negroes. The sit-down strike ended immediately. i Dr. B. Tom Reeves, camp physician, said none of the convicts were injured severely enough to prevent his being put In "solitary." Names of the convicts were not revealed. . | Poultry Short Course For Aug. 31-Sept. 3 Clemson, July 17.?A program that will cover all phases of poultry production has been arranged for the eighth poultry short course to be held at Clemson College August 31 through September 3. "This short course in the poultry industry Is arranged to afford busy farmers, poultrymen and hatcherymen an opportunity to get more information on the fundamentals of poultry raising,'-' says P. H. Gooding, extension poultryman, pointing out that there are no requirements for entrance to the course. "The college poultry plant will be open at all times, and full opportunity will be given for persons to "become familiar with the methods employed in its operation." Stating that special emphasis will he placed upon culling, judging and selection, Mr. Gooding announces that an optional examination will be held in selection and judging following the course, and that persons successfully passing the examination will qualify as selecting agents to cull flocks in compliance with the National Poultry Improvement Plan. Rooms will be available in the college dormitories for both men and women without charge, it is announced, but persons occupying them must bring along pillow, pillow case, sheets single width), light cover and towels. Meals may be obtained at various lunch rooms on the campus for about $1.00 a day. With its fine summer climate Clemson Is a good place to spend a short vacation, and Mr. Gooding urges those interested to make plans to visit the Agricultural College and take advantage of the opportunity to attend the Short Course, thus combining pleasure with profit.
