Ackson writes I
on stock law
Mr. Editor:?
I don't know that it will bo worth
much for mo to write now, but I
have decided it might help some.
The matter would be luughable if it
had not got to the place where it
is so serious.
I attended two of the free range
meetings in Conway last Spring in
order to try to keep things from
happening as they have. They gave
me the chance to speak 011 one occasion,
and I told them th it >ve had
the stock law, and the thing for us
to do was to begin to prepare for it.
I told them they might send throo
of the best lawyers in Conway to'
Columbia and thev could not rcpe.v
the law, that it would not be considered
a local matter any longer.
The thing is now settled for good
and maybe some will be benefited
by my experience.
I have been in Horry County for
twenty years or more and have never
tried to raise stock in the woods. I
hear of a good many who have torn
down their fences which I think is a
mistake. One acre of cleared land
is worth more for a pasture than ,
ten in the woods. .
The best plan is to fence off a I
small place, the size would depend <
on the number of stock one would
want to keep, and plant it in some
kind of grass, and I do not think
there is anything1 that will beat bermuda
for this section. Where a mail
has a small family, and would only
want to keep one cow, and raise
meat for his own use, one-half acre
would be a plenty, and then by having
some of his farm fenced his
stock could get the run of it during
the fall and winter. A mighty sorry
fence will keep stock in, where very
often it takes a mighty good one to
keep them out. 1 remember very
well when the stock law was passed
tn Marion County, my Father had
me to haul rails from around the
field and fence the woods for pasture.
Soon the rails were burned up
or rotted and the pasture gone. So
it was not long before he only tried
to keep one cow, and as he expressed
it, he would buy two or three
barrows in the spring to raise off
of, and he had home made meat
nearly all the year, and milk and butter
about all the time. I am glad
to see that both factions are agreeing,
and that there is no wrangling
over the matter. The matter is settled
henceforth now and forever, and
in less than five years ninety per
cent of the people will be glad
that it is settled as it is. So
tets quit discussing it, and go to discussing
the question of raising better
stock, and let the ladies who
have ham and all sorts of good
things to eat that they want to give
W. L. Mishoe, and Uncle Jerry, drop
them a note and tell them to come
around.
The serious tiling referred was
that the men who had more stock
than they could manage under stock
law conditions did not dispose of
them last summer when they could,
have gotten pood prices for them,
thinking' the law would he repealed,
and had to sell them at a sacrifice.

MARKED GROWTH IN DAIRYING
SHOWN IN SOUTHERN STATES
In the Southern States the work
conducted by the Dairy Division,
United States Department of Agriculture,
to promote dairying: and the
consumption of dairy products has
shown marked results.' The efforts
la^t year were directed largely toward
increasing the use of milk and
dairy products on the farm through
campaigns for cows on every farm
and improving farm dairy products
by practical demonstrations in
school?; nnd in farm kitchens. In
liOuisiana 274 cottage-cheese demonstrations,
207 butter making demonstrations
and 286 demonstrations on
milk products were made, and 26.
meetings were held. As a result?2.093
families were reported as using
more milk, 178 cows were brought in
where there were none before, Si
boys' and girls' clubs were organized,
and much improved dairy apparatus
was purchased.
In South Carolina tho activities resulted
in the increased use of milk in
1,384 families and in the purchase of
7.'? family cows. Sixty demonstrations
were given in butter making
and 38 in making other dairy products.
The work in Mississippi resulted
i?i placing 322 family cows in 11
counties and in the purchase of 2,040
pieces of improved dairy equipment.

I WHY NOT GROW
STAPLE COTTON?
____
Clemson College.?The length of
staple plays an important part in
determining- the price of cotton, and
for this reason the long staple varieties
of cotton bring a better price
than do the short staple. It is
natural that this should be the case
since the longer the staple, other
things being equal, the better the
grado of cloth that can be produced.
However, the long staple varieties
have not had the popularity that the
short staples have had, due in main
to the fiict that the long staple varieties
which were formerly grown
gave pooi* yields of seed cotton.
This defect of the long staple
varieties is now being overcome by
the breeding methods employed by
some of our best seedmen. In the
past few years varieties of long
staple cotton have been prooduced
whose yield of seed cotton compare
favorably with some of the popular
short staple varieties, says G. H.
? i i ?
ironings, assistant agronomist. Ivor
J instance, in the 11)20 cotton variety
test at Clemson College, in which 22
varieties wove tested, Delta Type
Webber, a I 5-16 inch staple, stood
fifth from the top. Wannamaker's
Cleveland, a 1 inch fibre, led the list
producting 1672 pounds of seed cotton,
while the Delta Type produced
1584 pounds.
Other long staple varieties, such
as the Webber 40 and Webber 82,
1 Vi inches; Hartsville 12, 1 Yt inches;
Dixie-Affifi, l V? inches; Keenan, 1M
inches, may also be counted upon
to produce good yields during average
years. The Dixie-Affifi is alsc
a pood well-resistant variety. All
of these are early long staple varieties
and may be expected to succeed
under weevil conditions.

GOOD FKRTILIZER WORK
IN NEWBERRY COUNTS
Olemson College. ? "Tuesday wai
holiday, but I got out two now
articles on the economical use o
fertilizer for 1921, giving some horn
mixing formulas and approximat
cost of each per ton," says T. M
Mills, Newberry County Agent, ii
a recent report. "They were pub
lished in Friday's county paper am
on Saturday I had many inquirie
and consultations concerning fertili
zers and home mixing. Home mix
ing this year showfv a saving o
about $10.00 per ton over read
mixed goods and I am cxplainin
this to the farmers through the coun
ty papers and on the streets and i
my office. I am determined thn
every reading man in Newberr
county shall be informed so that h
can act intelligently in the matte
of fertilizers. I am tolling ther
where and how thoy can buy thei
fertilizers co-operatively and sav

IMPROVEMENT
IN EDUCATION
I
Washington.?Illiteracy is decreasing
in the nation, according" to census
bureau returns from the first
three States in which 1P20 enumeration
has been worked out on the
subject.
In Alabama where the percentage j
of i'literacy was found to be 22.9,of,
the tota' population over ton years
of aire in 1910, the 1920 percentage
was 1G.2.
In Arkansas the percentage dropped
from 12.G in 1910 to 9.4 in 1920
and in Delaware from 8.1 in 1910
to 5.9 in 1920.
Illiterate persons under the census
bureau tabulation include all these
unable to write
In all three States the percentage
of illiteracy in the rural districts
\vas somewhat gTeater than in the
cities. In Alabama 17.8 percent of
rural residents were found to be illiterate
and 10.4 percent in cities;
in Arkansas 13.6 per cent of the
rural population and 0.5 per cent of
urban, in Delaware fi.l per cent for
rural districts and 5.7 per cent for
urban. 1
In both Southern States a higher
percentage of illiterates was found
in the negro population than in the
white, although the proportion of il-i
literates likewise declined among tlie1
nr>jrroo? liotwppn 191ft Jind 1 <)9.ft Tn'
Alabama 31.3 per cent of negroes j
were found illiterates, while 0.4 pri^
cent of native whites of native per-1
centage were illiterate while in Ar-;
kansas 21.8 p.er cent of negroes were
illiterates and but 4.0> per cent of
whites of native percentage were included.

SMALL DAIRY FIRST AID
TO GENERAL FARM
Clemson College.?"Mr. T. L. John
ston, of Fairfield County, who has
been running a small dairy for many
>iears, tells me," says County Agent
K. H. Lemmon, in a recent report,
"that the cash from his dairy, consisting
of eight cows is practically
running his five-horse farm. Mr.
Johnson says that with very little
assistance, which he has not had so
far, he will be able to operate his
five-horse farm through the season
with the Droceeds of his Hniw
"Mr. Johnston has a fine herd of
high grade Guernsey cattle, rand says
that the Osceola velvet beans, which
he is feeding to his cows now, are
largely responsible for the profit he
is getting from them. He gathered
a splendid crop of beans last year."

DOGS THAT DESTROY
SHEEP SHOULD BE SHOT
T\s sheep-killing dog constitutes
nnc of the greatest menaces to the 1
sheep industry. Such dogs not only j
1:?U sheep, hut keep out of the sheep
business men who are otherwise inclined
to go into it, say specialists
the United States Department of
Agriculture.
Sheep-killing: dogs work both
singly and in groups, but usually in
twos or threes. They do not limit
their attacks to the flocks of thej
immediate vicinity in which they
are kept, but travel for miles in
all directions, spreading; destruction
in the flocks with which they come
in contact. Because their work is
so often done under cover of darkness
it is almost impossible to catch
them in the act of worrying thej
sheep, hence they can seldom be1
positively identified.
After a dog has once formed the(
habit of killing sheep it seemingly i
becomes a mania with him and he!
is seldom if ever broken of it. He
not only destroys sheep himself, but]
leads other dogs to, the work. No i
consideration should be given such j
dogs; and if additional losses from:
this source are to be avoided, they j
should be killed as soon as their
habits are known.
o
When the mills are all going and
new factories are being established,
this community will enjoy a still
larger amount of business. A large
business is being clone here and has
been even through the so-called de- J
pression. While other places lagged
behind, Conway has been coming
ahead all of the time.
