Sweet Potatoes In The Victory uarden Clemson, May?Where there Is enough room in the Victory Gardou for sweet potatoes, a few rows of thin excellent food crop could well he planted to help swell the food supply of the Victory gardener's lamlly. says A I!. Schilletter, Clemson extension horticulturist On the average farm sweet potatoes are usually planted in the field, hut \n hero space permits, the Victory garden in towns and cities could well afford to use any extra space for sweet potatoes. A row of early plants set now would provide \lues for later planting In June for the main crop. The early row could furnish early potatoes for August digging and use, and the vine1 cutting would provide tho main crop for later harvest and storage, Schllletter points out. Potatoes dug carefully and stored in regular ventilated baskets In the pantry or other convenient place will usually cure out and keep fairly well until needed In tho fall and winter. This is suggested as |a moans of storage where only a few rows aro grown In the Victory garden and a I f? w bushels aro produced. For taking care of larger <|uanti' i s. the A type sweet potato curing ii .use designed by Clemson college sp Tbilisi* is suggested. Clemson Leaflet 1'*. Tlie A Typo Sweet Potato!

War Bonds In Your Woods When any citizen prevents or stops a forest fire, he Is siTurlng a bond in the future of American forests, says County Hanger L. K. Smith. The ;iverage stand of pine trees In South Carolina increases in growth at a rate of f> per cent per year if fire is ke]>t out A much higher rate of interest can he expected from the same stand if both fire protection and a good selective cutting practice is carried on. A great many American citizens may feel that they are unable to purchase C. S. Government War Ponds, but everyone is in a position to 11 1 p their country win the war and a heit. r peace after the war by preventing and stopping woods fires or any fires.

(Good Land Makes Profitable Pasture Clemson, May?One way to heat the farm lal>or shortage, according to the experience of D. L. Brown, Lee county farmer, is to convert cropland to pasture and let cattle harvest the crop, says E. C. Turner. Jr., conservation specialist of tho Clemson Extension Service. Mr Brow n. w ho is a cooperator in the Lynches River Conservation disirict. lias found that land that will produce good cotton and corn, will also produce good pasture workers a, A in I ho district report. Fourteen acres of good cropland thai had produced 25 bushels of corn. 10 bushels of oat?, and a bale of cotton to the acre furnished 268 days grazing for 14 head of beef cattle or a total of 3,752 cow days of grazing on Mr. llrown'H farm in 1042. the first year the lund was used for pasture. Development of the pasture was started in the fall of 1042. Mr. Drown planted the 14 acres to oata and vetch, which furnished 6f> days grazing durtig February, March and April 11142. and 16 days additional grazing May !5 to June 1, inclusive. On March 20. 1012, Mr. Ilrown sowed Dallis grass, white Dutch clover, and common lespetleza on the oats and vetch, after an application of 700 pounds of basic slag per acre. Between Juno 15 and Docembor 15 tho pasture furnished 183 days grazing for the 14 head of cattle, making a total of 268 days grazing from February to December 15. D|AHrut year carrying capacity was hll^Pwcauso good cropland was used for the pasture. Mr. Ilrown was so well pleased with the result that he has fenced an additional 20 acres of good cropland to expand his pasturo acreage. Soil Conservation News (By V. T. Mullen The few warm days that we 'have had has certainly made serlcea lespedoza and kudzu begin to grow. A seven acre field of sericea on Ingleside riantation is up to an almost per feet stand. This field was planted about the first of April. A second year perennial strip of serlcea on a steep sloping field of Nick Watts. Farm Security Cooperator, will average possibly twelve inches in height at present. Karly grazing may bo secured from this plant and two cuttings of hay obtained later. Sericea should be seeded in April or May for vigorous second season growth, however, seed planted as late as June or July will give satisfactory results if weather conditions permit. Kudzu Is beginning to grow and good stands have been obtained from most plantings. Recent farm conservation plans have been written on the farms of J. D Watson, E. T. Bowen and Leslie Moak of the Bianev community. Additional funds have boon made available for continuation of t e drainage work now under way iu the Atkins Drainage District near Lynch burg. S. (\. according to Fred A. Thompson, District Conservationist of the Lynches Hiver Soil Conservation! District. With availability of these! funds, excavation has begun on a new , drainage canal which is another stop 1 in the plans for providing adequate' drainage to the farms in the drainsg" district, another canal having be.-u excavated some months ago and several old canals having already been re-worked. The canal now being excavated, when completed, will afford drainage to 25 farms where lack of drainage in the past has resulted in fair to poor yields of crops being produced on lands whloh when properly drained are capable of producing high yields of vital war crops. This work is being made possible through the cooperation of the Lynches River Soil Conservation District and the Atkins Drainage District. The Atkins Drainage District is like many other old drainage districts which were organized several years ago and which for various reasons have not provided the drainage that was originally intended, one of these reasons being that after the main canals were provided there was no one whom the farmers could call on to assist them with the drainage problems on their individual farms. With the establishment of the Soil Conservation Districts it is now possible for farmers to secure the services of tho Soil Conservation District personnel to assist them with their drainage problems. This is one of the many ways in which the Soil Conservation District Is assisting the farmers to increase the production of agricultural products needed in the war effort. Kendalls Rout Rival Instructor Team In Slaughter 17 to 4 League Leaders Mix, Hits With Cosily Boners To Add Up. That frocHcaome aggregation Kendall athletes ran wild on the soft ball arena last Friday evening t<J slaughter the Instructors from the Southern Aviation school 17 to 4 in a comedy of errors The flyers were baffled by the of firings of Artie Robinson, the one armed hurler of the Mill team and gathered hut four hits. One of these was a long homo run clout by Ktowel short stop of the Instructor gang and It came in the sixth fram to pave the way to a four run splurge that averted the white wash brush. Up to that time the flyers had not put a man as far as secopd base. The game, starting at 7:15 dragged so that It was necessary to terminate the burlesque at the end of the sixth because of gathering darkness. K. Clarkeson Ithame, whose pitching exploits have graced the pages of Camden softhall history for the past several years, essayed the comeback saunter against the Kendalls and he reception he got was one long to he remembered. The Kendalls pushed four runners over the count ;ng pan in the opening round on ono lone single mixed witlr three errors and a walk. In the second inning the Mill laddies hatted around and when flu? dust had cleared from the home base, seven runs, resulting from six blows and two errors bad been registered. To make a long story short, the Kendalls rang the hell in every one of the five frames, with three more in the third, one in the fourth and two i mho fifth. The Millers did not ake a turn at bat in the last of the sixth. The Flyers did not appear to be able to get coordinated, but that they will he in the race after a few more net-to-gethers was indicated by the manner in which they rose up and crash the score sheet In the sixth frame.

Home Guard Falters And Kendalls Grab Ball Game 8 to 3 For five innings those Home (luard si?i'tbailors staved off the offensive of hi- league leading Kendalls, but in the next three stanzas the community protectors put on their flying suits iml realv went aloft, in the city league game staged Monday evening. The score wax S to in favor of the Kendalls. Two home runs, one by Handsome Harrison of the Guards in the fourth with one aboard and the other by H. Minis of the Kendalls with two on in the seventh, featured the afternoon frolic. Lynch, hurling for the Guards baffled the Kendalls for four rounds and had his support remained on mother earth, would probably have chalked up a first win for the uniformed gentry. In only three innings did the slugging gentry from the Wateree bailiwick gather more than one blow and then, it was only two. But the fifth sixth and seventh innings were fatal to the Guards, the Kendalls counting three in the fifth and seventh and two in the sixth. The Wateree clouters chalked up two hits in the fj?^P4?ning hut failed to push a runner home. The fifth inning trip of runs resulted from two errors, a walk and Bonny Robinson's two sack clout. The two runs in the sixth same from two hits and an error in the left garden. In the seventh Minis' homer sent three Wateree lads scampering; around tho circuit. The Guards took the lead in the game in the first of the fourth when with two down. Ithodus was given a! lift on Bonn Robinson's error and I came home ahead of Harrison when, the latter blasted the ball to deep center for a circuit smash. Art Robinson of the Millers had the situation well in hand in the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth rounds, glv- j ing up but one hit and chalking up four strikeouts. In the ninth the Guards threatened, but some stupid . base running nipped the rally with but one run resulting. Tonight the Army battles the Instructors and with the latter group , reporting the return of their ''murder-j er's row," they expect to take the, measure of the Army. R. H. E.
