WHAT SPECIALISTS SAY * .1.. .. c t ..i i: c> t. \ t anrij tn .iviiviuiis nm?nii D. T. Herman, Aiken.?An increasing number of men are expressing themselves about the future of the hop business and the general opinion is that hogs are going to be one of the staple crops because there is always a market and generally a good profit in the b usiness. S. D. Sim?j, Florence.?People are more interested in producing everything which they need on the farm. They are more interested in the cash pork proposition than the Sale of breeding stock. It seems that lack of money is the only thing keeping many farmers from getting further irfo-the hog game. 1). C. Badger.?This past month a new bull association (Jersey) in Calhoun County has been organized. Or? purebred Jersey-bull has already boon purchased and is^ now *at St. Matthews, this purchase* having been made by Chas. B. Wfiltriey, o fBeaufort. Another bull has been purchased from B. R.

Aiken.?The tendency towards further organizations and co-operation of the various trucking districts seems to be quite pronounced at the present time ,andkI firmly believe that some advisory work in this line will be of great value to our seryice and to the farmers during the coming fell and winter months. \.

Some give indications of becoming heavy producers, while others will be just boarders. If chicks were hatched in February, March, and Anvil, they should be fairly well developed; and, in fact, some are already laying. Only strong, healthy, vie-orous pul"iofv r?:ir? stTiirm un under P eaV>: e(??f production, according to N. R. Mohrhof. Extension Poultry Specialist, who says that not only must they hive health and vigor, but they should also have breediwr qualities for egg production behind then**. Tho^-e are pullets that we want in our /locks. Rut even in the lv?st of flocks we are fifoi 11 rr to find scrut) pullets. By scrub pul'ets we mean weak. nonvigorous. slow maturing1 birds. Pullets that prive indications of poor proproduction should be "canned" to prevent them from eating up all of the profit that is made by the producers. Now is a pood time to cull out and dispose of all pullots that are weak, that sho wsigns of low vitality, and that have poor body conformation. Look over your growing stock now and eliminate the scrubs. o DRINKING EVIL ON HIGHWAYS (Continued from Front Pa#e.) day, one white man and several negroes took the National Highwaj above Conway as the place for their to consume monkey rum and native fermented grape juice, first taking uf all of the right of way with the battered old Ford, and afterwards getting so drunk that some of the crowd were dead to the world when a policemar had to be sent after. Thanks to the policeman who standi guard about the streets here, botV day and dight, the streets are usuallj free of such things as this, but those who enjoy such pastimes have learner to tret in a car and take to the road; near town. After they have partaker sufficiently of the refreshments pro vided for the joyriding" they have n< correct idea of where the town limit! lie, and often they are not capturei but taken while drunk asleep by th< TOAd or within the car. The best way to break this up is t< watch for them and place heavy fine: for speeding as well as for beinj drunk on the highway. On last Sunday afternoon there wa a car stopped near the side of thi road not far from the residence o Dr. J. A. Norton, and one of the mei who had been seen in this part: earlier in the day was dead to th< world from strong drink. o Wives of congressional medal o honor men have been invited to ac company their husbands to the Ameri can Legion national convention ii New Orleans, October 16-20.

ARE BUILDING BETTER SOILS C 1 e m s o u College.?That South Carolina farmers are coming rapidly to realize the increased importance of better soils under present agricultural conditions is.evident upon all sides. First a few outstanding pioneers in this work, such for example as J. Wade Drake, of Anderson, S. C., and M. P. Harris, of Bishopville, led the wa> under the preaching of the Extension Service workers, and now scores of -farmers are following suit, as may be seen from extracts below from county agents' reports. J. R. Clark. Richland.?I am convinced tliat soil building crops in the wn \r nf u-i.W 1 - - ICgUI!IC> CJSJJt" Clil 1 I J' will aid materially in breaking up the weevil. We have a clean cut example of this on the farm of Mr. Patterson. The' weevil was much later in appearing in the fields where green winter crops were grown, and as a result, with anything like a half favorable season, Mr. Patterson would have made an excellent crop of cottQn. The farmers that have seen or heard about this have been greatly impresed by it and are going to try the same thing. H. K. Sanders, Chester.?There is much interest in vetch and crimson clover seed for fall seeding among farmers but the price is so much higher than last fall that the farmers will not be able to plant as much as they would like to.

Tiller, Chesteriield,?The crop of peas, beans and other crops seeded for soiling crops are very promising in ^pite of too much rain. We are planning a county wide campaign in There is every indication of an increase in acreage, as a larger amoynt of clover crop seed has been saved in the county this year than ever before. . S. E. Evans. Marlboro.?Prospects are very good for increased acreage iit winter cover crops this fall. Farmers are how buying seed Mtwl nisi kino* ni'^nnviif inns fnr nluntim* A. B. Carwile., McCormick.?The acreage of crimson clover and bur clover will be increased this time, but on account of the high prices not so much hairy vetch will be sown. We have some good clovers here that are building up our soil. S. C. Stripling, Cherokee.?On Friday, July 28th, the first "Soil Building Day" ever held in the county was held at Limestone College. About seventy-five farmers were with us during the entire day, and I feel they were interested in the three subjects of "Weevil Control," "Pasture and Forage Crops," and "Growing Legumes." Since the meeting several of them have been to me for further information and assistance. 1 A. H. Chapman, Greenville.?I am again stressing the importance of winter cover crops for soil building and as a protection against the weevil, r looks as if the farmers of Greenvill County will plant the largest acreage of crimson clover and other crops that we have ever had. Ernest Carnes, Spartanburg.?A great deal of interest is now manifest in the purchase of crimson clover and hairy vetch. No doubt our acreage will be the largest in history. 1 have assisted farmers in getting prices and the nurchasimr of five cars of lime stone for alfalfa and clovers. o CLIPPINGS FROM CLUBDOM There are approximately 500,000 boy and girl club members in the United States. There are approximately 2,000 club boys in South Carolina. There are f>2,793 white boys in rural South Carolina who are within the limits of the club age. Anderson County prohably has the largest community club in South Carolina. This is the Townville Club, with more than forty members. Lancaster County probably has more club boys than any other county. with more than one hundred and sixty members. Lexington County usually turns in more complete record books than any )ther county. Charleston County, for the first 'ime in a few years, has a large club enrollment, with over 100 club boys. 11 ' | ierty of 0 CO. e disposed of U LAND . ,J No. 4 I 00 For $6,000.00 D ir that i| .

Practically 80 per?cent of ihe club boys in South Carolina belong to organized community clubs. Club work mixes a little wholesome recreation along with the farm work. The record book is an important [virt of club work. Every club boy 'should immediately get his record up-to-date. The motto of club work is "To make the 'best better." A fine aim for the clubsters. o PLAN ROTATIONS NOW Clemson College.?This is a good time ?f the year to plan a systematic crop rotation and begin to put it into operation. The wisdom of using a crop rotations has been proven by numerous experiments and by the experiences' of our best farmers. It is nof more important than ever before. Every farmer who has not already done so should make a ,at.art on a rotation, advise;* Prof. C. P. Blackwell, Chief of the""* Agronomy Division. | Land to be planted in small grains t can be planted now. Land to be * planted in cotton next year should be t set aside now and should be plowed J deep this fall if it is a heavy soil, t and if it is a. light soil it should be ,1 plowed early in the spring. It should )j be worked into a firm smooth seed t bed early in the spring in order to t give an early growth of cotton. . \ Land to be planted in corn next t year should be planted to a cover ( crop early this fall. If the land has cotton on it this year, the cotton ] stalks should be plowed under be- j fore planting to small grain .as a cover f crop. '{ judgftnot and i be not judged ; 1 On a recent Sunday evening Dr. | Gordan preached to his congregation i on the Bibical prohibition of judging, j His discourse was timely and the lessons taught will not soon be forgotten \ by those who were so fortunate as to < hear him. I He said that the churches in Con way suffered from the tongue of the < self constituted judge; that the city j is suffering from this poison practice; ] that individuals ?were victims of and ] in constant danger of this evil doer. Dr. Gordon charges the censorious person with hindering religious, so cial, political and industrial progress. He warned his people against the dan- j gerous habit and with convincing ! force drove home the Truth "For with what jurgment ye judge, ye J shall be judged."

Roberts, B. P. Par- ? | cer, all patrons of the Aynor school, vere placed on the stand and testified ;o the good management of the school 1 flairs during the last year or more, md they all stated that they had no occasion to complain. The Rev. L. F. Westbury was the ast witness introduced by the responlent. He denied that he had been a nember of the so-called Westbury jommitte to inquire into the school af"airs, and said that he was not present .vhen this committee called on Mr. Hagood. He said that he had been ^resent when Mr. W. P. Lewis made lis report to the citizens' meeting ifter visiting the office at Conway and retting figures showing the money ;h.at had been spent for the item of M-r>0.00 before mentioned. He said ,hat the statement^made by Mr. Lewis lad been equivalent to accusing* Ha?ood and King of misappropriating ,he school funds and that he heard ,he matter discussed in terms which vere hard and that he disapproved of ,he way the statement had been made )n that occasion. A powerful argument was made by Mr. Scarborough in which he insisted ;hat for the better interests of the school at Aynor, that Mr. Hagood should be removed and another man lppointed who would get along in harnony with the rest of the school >oard. He was eloquent in drawing >n the imagination and citing examples from history to illustrate the [joints he wished to drive home. Ho ;ook up the argument made by the ittorney for the respondent and jointed out the weak spots in it. After hearing the arguments on joth sides, the board retiied and came mt with an order which refused the grayer of the petition to revoke the ippointment of Hagood, and passing >n other phases of the case as it ap- y geared in the order itself which was printed in full in the issue of The Herald of last week. ? o The entire capacity of the parking yards of the Illinois Central and Louisville and Nashville railroads in New Orleans has been reserved by prospective visit^fcs to the American Legion national Convention in New Orleans, October 10-20.
