Never work garden soil when it is
slick and sticky wet, and never culti
vate the vegetables when they are
set with heavy dew or ratn. These
are two important gardening don'ta
to which Clemson horticulturists call
attention.
Early kinds of vegetables that were
planted in February and March, such
as beets, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower,
kale, * lettuce, mustard, peas, spinach,
etc., need to be cultivated frequently
and thoroughly, and should be given a
aide dressing of nitrate of soda.
Scatter this between the rows without
getting dt on the plants. In order that
an unbroken supply may be had. make
another planting of the vegeUbles
planted during March.
Make plantings now of the following
vegetables: beans, pole beans, lima
beans, squash, cucumber, okra, com.
Transplant tomato, sweet potato,
egg plant, pepper, to open field after
April 16.

So much tor the school itself and

But for the pupils themselves, what
have we done?
It is not necessary for me to tell
you that the hungry child, or the child
hurried away from home in the early
morning.. with little breakfast, is at
best, an indifferent pupil.
This legislature has-taken steps to
rectify that situation.
Today some 2.0(M)00 children, in
schools scattered far and wide over
South Carolina, have served to them
at low cost, er at no cost at all, well-,
balanced nourishing lunches. j
These free lunches, usually with
milk, have not o*Iy Improved physical

It is well known that the teacher
makes the school. A good teacher
means a good school. And what have
we. this legislature, done to enable
the teacher to meet the advancing
cost of living? The appropriation Act
of 1948 provided that the fiscal year
1943-44 the salary of each and every
school teacher In the public schools of
the State, who qualifies for and re
ceives State Aid—shall be increased
16 per cent per month. And this year
(1944) we added six dollars per month
to salaries being paid, so no man may
criticise ns for being unmindful of and
indifferuQt to our school teachers
We also passed a resolution request
ing the State Board of Education to
proceed at once -with plans for setting
up within the school system, a 12th
grade, and In conclusion I want to,
say that here again the legislature)
proved itself interested in the progress
