Fine Yields Corn
In River Bottoms
What is said to by the finest large
corn crop over raised In Kershaw
county and one of the finest for the
state also, Is a field of 203 acres In
Bulmoul swump, five miles below
Camden on the Wateree river
I Belmont farm Is a part of the Mulberry
plantation of 6,000 acres, owned
'by David K. Williams, of Camden and
Tulsa, Oklahoma. The farm la In
charge of Ktrby Tupper.
Experts, including the county agricultural
agent, W. C. McCarley. estimates
that the largo field will average
70 bushels to the acre, which will
make a total yield of around 15,000
! bushels.
j This Is a river bottom field, and
soventy-five acres of the tract Is new
j ground, cleured up a year ago. The
j field Is protected by a 35 foot levee,
which parallells the river. The seed
j i.sed was the Golden Yellow Dent and
j no fertilizer was used under same.
Other farmers have perhaps made
I larger yields than 70 bushels In the
county, but It Is doubtful ir any have
i averaged that much on a field of 200
, acres. The State Farm, which is par!
tlally in Kershaw and Sumter connj
ties, and managed by Captain James
L. Glenn, made an avdrage last summer
of 50 bushels per acre on 500
acres. Most of this acreage wnn In
the Wateree swamp, about ton miles
below the Mulberry farm, and that
was the best yield ever made on the
State Farm. Cantmhi Glenn used 100
pounds of s>da under his corn.
