Getting Started With the Dairy Herd j Clemson College, Oct. 10.?Oconee County's Jersey Bull Association is ! now in its fifth year and some good j grade herds are being founded, ac-; cording to C. G.Cushman, Extension j Dairy Specialist, who quotes E. T. j Petty, a member of the association,' as saying that it is a big mistake not j to purchase some good registered ( cows along with the association bulls.! Mr. Petty's statement is as follows: "The biggest mistake the association ever made was in not purchasing one or two heifers at the same! time we purchased the bulls. As a re- < suit we are just now getting started' with grade herds when it might just j as well have been purebred herds if j one or two purebred cows had been: used as a foundation by each man in-1 stead of grades." This is a significant remark, thinks Mr. Cushman, which might well be taken note of by members of the new bull associations organized through- ' out the state. There is a great deal in Mr. Petty's statement. It stands for itself and comes from a man who has realized his mistake by actual experience after five years have passed. Rations for Suckling Pigs. Clemson College, Oct. 10?While! it is true that a sow will usually produce sufficient milk to keep her' pigs in good thrifty condition, it is advisable to feed the pig some additional concentrates. Any one of the following rations suggested by Prof. L. V. fV,?, A nimol Wnc ?Md,rKt5 V , VjiiiCl Ui. tuu auiiUMi AA ww bandry Division, will be relished by the pigs. 1. Soaked shelled corn 100 pounds; skimmilk or buttermilk 300. pounds; pasture. Nutritive ratio 1:5.27. 2. Corn meal 60 pounds; middlings 35 pounds; tankage or fish meal 5 pounds pasture, Nntritive ratio 1:5.60. 3 Soaked shelled corn 85 pounds; tankage or fish meal 15 pounds; pasture. Nutritive ratio 1.4.66. Young pigs make more economical grains tlian they will make when they get older, and for this reason the opportunity to feed them well while young should not be neglected. It is usually true that rapid gains are more economical than slow gains,? an additional reason for supplementing the mother's milk. Possibly the main reason why pigs should be taught to eat early is that when they are weaned they know j how to eat and are not stunted. THE AUGUSTA CONFERENCE. The Williston Way. We published last week an interesting article recently appearing in . the Augusta Chronicle regarding a meeting to be held in Augusta soon. * ~ ' * * * ? A- 1 ~ ^ ' The purpose oi in IS IS iu uave piavucal men who have had actual experience thoroughly discuss the methods that can be used to best insure a cotton crop fox the South in 1923. In talking with the editor of The Chroni cle a few 'days ago, we caught the inspiration of this meeting and believe that this proposed conference is a move in the right direction. There is already a great scarcity?almost a famine of cotton?and the world is looking to the South to raise not a bumper crop but a crop of say ten to twelve million bales a year. The South can do this in spite of the boll weevil and by living at home and raising other thirigs continue to find in cotton a good money crop. All , success to this conference. The Way will be glad to be of what aid it can. In this connection, too much emphasis cannot be laid on the importance of the three meetings being held in Barnwell county this week on this subject. Two such meetings will be today, in the morning at Blackville and in the afternoon in Williston and tomorrow morning, Saturday, in Ranw.M], An exnert will speak along the general lines of growing * cotton under boll weevil conditions c laying special emphasis on destroying no? all cotton stalks which is the most important thing that can be done at this time. For fear some may mis- ( c understand, let it not for one moment be felt that all this talk about how to * s < grow cotton means that cotton is to be depended on as in the olden days. It is too treacherous but it is a fact that had just as well be faced that cotton will be planted and in fact it 1 seems impossible to get along with-, out planting some, then the thing to do is to learn how best to grow that c which is planted so as 10 avmu a total failure. Xo large yield can ' ever be expected again. When the s farmer has done all lie can, the ! 1 weather conditions play a most im- r portant part. Some of the best farm- j' ers in Barnwell county this year 1 didn't make a bale- to ten to twenty 1 acres but they were rained out. The weevil didn't do it. Above all things, the farmer has learned to plant a small acreage and look after this. Renew your subscription today. FIRST WOMAN SENATOR. Mrs. Felt011 Is Strong for Both Protection and Prohibition. .Mrs. Wm. H. Felton. the first United States woman senator, who has been a leader in many good works and words in Georgia, in the course of an interview printed in the Baltimore Sun. gave emphatic endorsement of a protective tariff and of prohibition. On these questions she said: "We of the South should hail a protective tariff as a real blessing. We cannot expect our industries to thrive if we allow foreign manufacturers to come into our country with their goods made with labor 10 to 20 times as cheap as we are able to get it and undersell us. "Our manufacturing in the South is in its infancy. We need to stand by and help. And, unless we can sell our goods cheaper than a man from China, or Japan, or Germany or France, we cannot hope to see thein grow. There's our cotton. We. are just J beginning to see how much more valuable it is going to be to us when we get our own mills to spinning so that we won't have to ship it way up to New England and then buy it back at 20 times the price we were paid for it. What if Japan, with her labor pratically nothing, could bring manufactured cotton goods into our country and sell on an equal footing with our own mills?how long would our plants survice? "T'/3 rnto orortr firms fnr a tariff JL U vuic C ? gi J ixmu J.V& u VU4 AM. that protects!'' Mrs. Felton's views on prohibtion are straightforward. In a single syllable she quickly answered a question put to her regarding agitation for the moderation of the Volstead act. "Xo" 9he answered quickly. Mrs. Felton said: "I'd a million times rather cut off my. good right arm than see whisky brought back into our country. Or, for that matter, see that splendid prohibition act modified in any degree. "If you could have lived when I was young and could have seen the wretchedness it brought to many, many homes right here in my own county, you couldn't ask me if I would like to see it even modified. "Prohibition! God bless that glorious congress that made it a law in our land to prevent the use of intoxicants." i ?? GROWING BURR CLOVER (W. E. Prothro, in Williston Way) Burr Clover may be raised to advantage on many of our Barnwell county soils, thereby building up the land and making most excellent pasture when grown in combination ^ rtn TVi f rxr r\ OriTT ? >> itii uci muua 51 aoo. 1 ucot tnu ing pasturage the year round. On heavy clay, or botton land where there is plenty of moisture, burr clover succeeds well. It takes some time and patience to get a full catch of burr clover, but when once established on land it is as near a permanent crop as can well be, re-seeding each year without having to be sown. The seed do not all come up it once, and if there is a good stand of burr clover and it is cultivated .dean for one year, there will come up 1 good stand the following year. tVhen once established on land, there s no crop that will enrich the soil luicker. Should it be desired to olant the land to corn where there is 1 crop of clover growing, it can be lone, leaving a "balk" in centre of ow with enough clover to re-seed and, and the balk can be later )roken out, leaving plenty of seed or another season. Burr clover may )e planted any time during October >r November in this section. A very iasy way is to run a sweep furrow in ?otton rows and sow the seed on top >f ground in the furrow. The seed >hould not be covered but sown and - ATf v*rill r% 6it on suriace, wucie cucj win luuic ip and if season is favorable, and not 00 dry, it will make a fine growth :he first year on good rich land. It s a very good practice to put some ompost in furrow and run the second ;ime to get a start. It is advisable .0 not pi:;nt too large an acreage at mce, but begin with small place and jpread it from the seed bed. A very good way to scatter this crop is to sow seed on terraces, and this will be 1 large help in distributing over field. The writer has no seed for sale, and this article is written for purpose of interesting our people in :his great soil builder. The time ias arrived in Barnwell county where >ur soils must be built up more cheaply than with high grade fertilizers applied to cotton. Burr clover will supply plenty of nitrogen which is the most costly ingredient used in fertilizer, and with the addition usually of acid phosphate alone large increase of production may be had when a Tnn nf hnrr plover is grown. Should there he any interested and would like to see a sample of what it can do, the writer will be glad to shovf results of this crop grown with Bermuda, on a lot right in the corporate limits of Town of Williston.
