Feed Out Figs
For Fall Market
Horcnee, July 17. "Hok prices
have already advanced on the large
marketh and higher than UHiial prices
from now until fall are expected, and
It would seem udvlaahle for furmers
to put spring plga on full food ua aoon
a? possible In order to get them on
the market before the fall decline In
prices begins," suys A. L. Dultant, oxtension
livestock specialist. "This
peak lti prices In recent years has
been about the last of August or the
first of September, with a marked
drop by October.
In feeding out these spring pigs
green soybeans will save considerable
grain, and corn and soybeans may be
hogged down to advantage. Fish meal
or a mixture of one-half flshmeal and
cottonseed meal should bo fed along
with the corn," he advises.
Explaining the basis for his recommendations,
Durant points out these
facts:
the icport ol the spring pig crop
released us of June 1 show.^that 3X,<99,00"
pigs were farrowed this
spring, which is 7.3 per cent less than
the number saved during the same
period of 1936 and, except for 1936,
the lowest in many years. This short
pig crop was due to the short corn
<io|> last year, which caused farmers
to breed fewer sows for spring farrow
This will mean fewer hogs to
market this fall. With a good corn
| crop in the corn belt this year, a largI
or than usual proportion of the gilts
| will, he kept for breeding purposes.
tints further reducing the number of
hogs available for market
I here are usually seasonal changes
in hog prices. Hogs are cheaper in
the winter when many hogs are going
on tiie market. There is usually
a rise in the spring after the heavy
winter run and again in the early fall
before the heavy shipments begin. If
corn crop prospects continue favorable
(and they are better than average
now), hog slaughter from now
through September will quite likely,
be appreciably smaller than during
the corresponding months of last year.

State Group Camp
Opening Announced
The most modern group camp- in
the entire Houth in h*lng opened and
operated by the Division of Park* und
Lands of the Koutli Carolina CommlsHlon
of Forestry during the month of
August. It is located on a beautiful
crystal clear lake of 300 acres Just
four miles south of Cheraw on highway
number one, in Cheraw State
Park, 't hirty cottages, each capable
of holding four campers, have been
constructed. For the leaders and councilors
there are five attractive cottages
und there is a large recreation hall
for meetings, indoor activities and to
take care of rainy days which are the
bane of campers.- Nearby is the most
Important building of all, the mess
hall provided with an excellently
equipped kitchen. An infirmary building
has been constructed as well as
comfort facilities and minor structures.
The water supply has been;
approved by the department of health, j
Th. *?ugh the cooperation of the'
state and national park service it has,
been possible to completely equip the
camp with all necessary kitchen and
mess hall equipment, cotH and mattresses
^o that all that is necessary
for the camper or groups of campers
to arrive at Cheraw by rail or bus
or at the camp by car with five dollars
per week per person for food.
Proper supervision will be supplied
for the campers.
The camp was constructed particularly
for group use such as underpriv-j
ileged children, crippled children, 4-H I
club boys and girls, Future Farmers,'
tann women,.boy and girl scouts, Y.
M. C. A.'s Y. W. C. A.'s, orphanages,
churches, groups sponsored by civic
clubs and all other such groups.
The campers and groups may be of i
any age but during the month and
In the cabin assignments may be ;
made according to organizations and
agos. The desirable minimum group
should consist of twenty persons but '
any number will be given considera- t
tlon. i
The opening of this camp gives or
ganlzatlons, groups and individuals ,
not owning camps an opportunity to i
send groups or individuals to camp 1
at a small cost. The effect of a week
in this camp will, invigorate many i
boys and girls and will give them a 1
week of pleasure which they will talk
about during the balance of the year j
and bring joy to the thoughtful indi- !
vidual or organization who made their 1
stay at the camp possible. It is anticipated
that cfimpers will gain In
weight and will come back home with
better bodies, memories of bird:; and
bees, and the enchantment and mystery
of the forest and eternal thanks
for their week in the high sand hills
of Chesterfield county. Arrangements
for campers should be made by wiring

the form and statute." etc.. and asked
"Whereof are you guilty or not guilty
?"
"Sati?" said Jim.
"Read it over." said the. judge; and
over again it was accordingly rend,
.and to the same Concluding intmrogai
tion Jim again responded, "sah?"
"See here, you." said the judge;
"lie is asking you if you took the
tiog or not "

And to my horror. Jim scratched
his head and. with a confiding smile,
, said
