TESTED ANQ PROVEN There is a heap of Solace in Being Able to Depend Upon a Wellt Earned Reputation. For months Conw.iy readers have fceen the constant expression of praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and read about the good work they have done in this locality.

Y. | BOLL WEEVIL POISONING IN 1922 I Clem son College, Feb. 2.?Poisoning cotton with calcium arsenate may be expected to pay: 1. When used on high yielding land. 2. When weevil infestation is heavy. 3. When the poison is properly applied according to a correct schedule. 4. When weather conditions are reasonably favorable for poisoning. Farmers planning to poison this season should secure a copy of Circular 162, United States Department of Agriculture, "Poisoning the Cotton Boll Weevil," which may be obtained from the extension service, Clemson Colege; the Delta Laboratory, Tallulah. La.; or the United States De-1 partment of Agriculture, Washington, X). O., advises Prof. A. F. Conradi, entomologist. This circular contains less than throe pages of print, but the information is to the point, and no farmer should undertake poisoning before studying it and. making sure, th,at. he understands thoroughly every step in the operation. Farmers are cautioned that poisoning is a serious and complicated operation, and that no one should undertake it unless he has determined to do it correctly. Many failures result from improper application, due to the lack of effort on the part of the farmer to inform himself. No one should be disappointed at failure the first year because poisoning must be learned just as we have had to learn other processes in farming. Those having had no experience are cput'oned to fro easy rnd not undertake too much the first season. Poisoning, like most farm operations, is not fool proof. While it has been demonstrated that the weevil can be poisoned profitably with proper methods and machines and under favorable weather conditions for poisoning, the farmer is also cautioned that unfavorable conditions and improper methods will undoubtedly cause complete failure. Regardless of how much poisoning the farmer intends to do, soil building should be kept up vigorously. i\nv successful poisoning* program is dependent on high yielding land. There is no evidence that poisoning will p,ay on poor land. It is no more expensive to poison an acre of high ( yielding land than to poison an acre of poor land. I Any ono intending to poison should ' begin right now and got information and study it hard aiwl seriouslv, and should take up the matter with the county agent so as to enable the extension service to keep in touch and .assist in every way possible. Ql'ttSTIONS AND ANSWERS From Specialists' Correspondence With Farmers Can fruit trees be planted safely in March? It is better to plant during Janu* arv and Fobriviry. Spring-pbinted trees never do as well as those planted in the la<e fall and winter. What varieties of Irish potatoes should 1 plant for market??B. C. C., Mayesville. The Irish Cobbler and Spaulding's Early Rose are grown more extensively than any other varieties, and the yield has proved to be greater than from any of the other early sorts. The Cobbler is more popular than the Rose, and would probably be best for you to plant the Cobbler on account of the greater demand for this variety. My horse's feet are very hard and dry. Please tell me what to do to make them soft.?R. H. S. in w.nfAi* nml th#?n nnnlv lin seed oil. This should be done daily :for a week or ten days. \ What is? the matter with the onclosed apple twigs? J. K. B., Timmonsville. This twig is inhabited by a fungus often seen forming incrustations or woody twigs. It is not parasitic and does little or no damage, but is unsightly. The usual spraying schedulf for plant diseases should control without difficulty. What is the matter with the po tatoes which I am sending you? Wil they do to plant??L. D. S., Loris. The potatoes seem to be affecte< with an unusual type of scab. Trea he tubers with corrosive sublimate o formaldehyde before planting. Wheri the disease is in the soil, as seems t< be the case with you, an applicatioi of 500 or 000 pounds of sulphur flou or flowers of sulphur per acre befor planting will usually reduce the dam age considerably. What are the best varieties of pr !*.: cans for me to plant? P. M. S R Rid Seville. Stuart, Schley, Delmas, and Mone Maker. Stuart is probably the mo? -K dependable variety, bein# freer fro] disease, of stronger growth, am] more regular bearer. Schley pre Ru.-: duces a superior nut, but is more sus pS.: ceptible to pecan scab. Mone Maker and Delmas have not bee , j planted to any great extent in th: state, but are now being recommen< fc,by pecan experts who have mac ?\ K^% v* /*< 1 ) -,' v' v L a thorough study of these varieties. Please advise me as to top-working seedling pecan trees. P. L. C., St. Matthems. For a number of years we have been observing pecan trees that have been top worked. We And that it is an exception were any of these topworked trees have proven profitable. I would not advise you to attempt to top-work the trees on a-i extensive scale, but if you have only a few trees on your premises I think it would be advisable to do so, provided of course, the trees are not producing nuts of fair quality and size. When is the proper time to spray poach trees for San Jose scale and with what solution or mixture? J. G. E., Kingsburg. With lime-sulphur spray at any time during: December, January, February, when the trees are leafless and dormant. We are sending you under separate cover Extension Circular 25, which is a spray calendar, and also Extension Circular 30, which gives directions for making lime-sulphur spray. This spray can also be purchased on the market as a liquid and as a powder. n FEBRUARY FARM CALENDAR Things to do This Month Agronomy Continue the clean-up job until it is done.

CONM MEN OF BUCKS UP IN ANGER ' They Do Not Like the Location of The New Highway CLAIM THAfTT SHOWS FAVORITISM Individuals Make Effort to Obtain a Further Hearing Before The Board Since the decision of the boards, fixing the location of the new highway from Conway to Georgetown, has been announced and the people have understood it; objections have been raised to it thick and fast; much complaint is heard on almost all sides except from those who live along the old route from Bear Swamp to Klondike. The people of Bucks township in the section extending from the township line down to Martin's Hill are incensed over what they term as a rotten deal. They praise H. P..Little, who took the position from the very first that the road should go by Greenwood church, thence by way of Martin's Hill to the neighborhood of Port Harrelson. The people of the Pee Dee portion of Bucks township say that they have stood in need of a good road for all these years; that they have paid out their good tax money the same as others have done; that they have taken their part of the burdens of the past and now they are not allowed to reap any benefit from the experience. It is'indeed true that their's is a section of the county where improvement is much needed and has been needed for a long, long time. Good roads through it would make it a garden spot for the growing of truck and large food crops for the markets. This new highway would have placed them within easy reach. Those who have looked at the matter from an unprejudiced standpoint are obliged to agree with this group of the people that the location of the road by the Greenwood route would have done the most good to the most people. From the standpoint of expediency and the permanent good of the county, the road should have gone the route that H. P. Little advocated. Some of them applied >to the chairman of the board for a hearing on ' the question, even after such a decision had been made. They were informed by him that it was now too late; that the application had gone in for the route as described in the last issue of the Herald. Still there are many who aim to take some action if it is possible in some way, according to statements made here the latter part of the week. A TONIC flrove's Tasteless chill Tonic restore?
