Elenxnr, Clemson Extension Information SpocisJist From the comparative rags ot tsn- ancy to the riches of farm owner* shlpi That is what I saw among the farm security clients of R. G. Donald in Darlington county. Seventeen of those former tenants he toQk on a few years ago hare paid for their farms that they had 40 years to pay for. If they needed it. Eighty of them hare made 2 or more pay ments in advance on their annual due dates. And there are no real de- llquencies. "Give us 2 more good years with tobacco and 80 per cent of these fami nes wfll have paid fdf Cfieir firms and all In fall,” stated the conservative and level-beaded Mr. Donald. It la great to see tenant families moving to that upper story of living, where htey own and can cherish the soli they stand upon and work with day by day. What a different outlook life must hold then! It was from poverty grass and bit ter weeds to excellent pasturage of clovws and grasses, without any seed- logs, In W. B. Bonn’s 66 acre pasture in Newberry county, Paul Ekell, the county agent, told me as we walked over It They simply applied phosphate and lime there a few years ago and the grasses and clovwa just came, while the poverty grass and bitter weed Jnat went Now a fine herd of dairy cattle find their sustenance there where formerly they only found exercise. Where electricity Is available In the low country I them putting It to work watering tobacco plant They'‘simply sink a shallow well and pump the water over tha.-bed needed.

Many states have' ordered it, and far-away California ordered a copy for each of their county agents. It Is free for the asking from yonr local county agent’s office or from (Hemson. As might have been expected with such a useful new product, there has been considerable profiteering in it. One town the other day I saw that 60 per cent wetable powder, whose normal retail price la about 76c, selling all the way from that figore to $1.76 a pound. And last summer when it first came in I saw 2 pea* cent solu- tkm selling in jugs at $4.60 a gallon— worth about SOc, but too weak to be very effective against most bugs.

Anyone planning to take the examtau tlon should write the Slxteuslon Ser vice. Clemson, S. C.. for material to ' study In advance of the short course. Farm Ponds—New Ciroulbr A farm pond shonld be favorably lo cated to be of any economic benefit, says C. y. Phagan, extension agiicul- torsi engineer. In the new extension clrcnlar 276, farm ponds. There are several natural or physi cal characteristics that must be con sidered in choosing a pond site, says Mr. Phagan. These Include the slope <rf land, location of spillway, source of water supply, depth of pond, siie ofdrainage area, and type of subsoil. From the standpoint of slope, the most desirable pond site is a small Valley with steep sides and gradually sloping floor. - Managing the farm pond for fish production is not a one-year proposi tion but a continuous process, says 8. A. Williams, former president of the South Carolina Fish and Game association and coauthor of Circular 276. Farm Ponds. There are six main points to be considered In connection with manag ing farm ponds for flah production Mr. WUliams says. These are proper stocking, adequate food supply for the fish, flood control, weed control, watershed control and fishing. A properly built pond properly man aged should give good results over a period of years. Circular 276 gives complete Information on building and managlnf farm ponds. Copies may be obtained from county agents' offices or from the publication department at Clemson. ' ' _ years ago cotton was 9c, hogs 6c, to- Clematm to uirbeatTlihple guide tottjww 8c a^ ao on. Labor saving—we see it at every turn. And this electricity that le reaching more and more fUrms Is In for a lot more farm Jobs than we have thought of In Its connectioa accord ing to our rural .electrification special ist, G. H. StewarL Do you see those “hundred day flowers’’ blooming along your drive way and in your background plantinga now? Fm talking about that distlne- tlve Southern plant—^tbe crape myrtle. Easy to grow and effected by few enemies, every home In this state should have some of these beautiful, long bloomers growing around it. The Improved watermelon pink sort now adorns several of Samter’s streets, and they are avenues of rare beauty. This great plant Is worthy of more attention than It gets over our state. We often try to grow a lot of diffi cult things that materialize Into little, while this vigerous stand-by is ne glected. Let’s resolve now to plant some crape'myrtles this winter. DDT—the wonder insecticide! A farm user of It told me In Ander son the other day that those letters meant ‘‘doubled delirium tremens” for Insects. That red plck-uj? truck you see run ning over Anderson county Is not a fire track. It is Assistant County Agents Hopkins and Stallworth put ting on DDT demonstratioiu In at least one bam In every community. Hopkins says, “That stuff Is so Im portant that we want our folks to know about it and how to use it and believe me. they are using It. Results are like magic.'” And that la the story of DDT every- t gA tha Tftty ^practical bnlle- tiu -published on Its farm and home use by Mr. Nettles of Clemson has Its use I have yet teen.
