The pioneer teacher "boarded around", generally staying two weeks iA a place. This was unsatisfactory \Jj/hc teacher because he was always on the move, and unsatisfactory to the patron. When "boarding around" ? -?- 1^-1 LU Oecame lmpossioie or unaesiruuie teachers selected their own rooming and hoarding places. Because there is no home for them in the district where they are employed, many teachers are suffering the inconvenience of driving- or walking miles to their schools and large numbers change from one district to another at the close of each school year because of poor living conditions. In 1005 a rural teacher in Walla Walla County, Washington, asked a school trustee to put an old cook wagon in her school yard so that she would have a place in which to live. Every home in the district had kindly but firmly told her that they could rot give her room and board. This old cook wagon was the first teachl ers' cottage in the State. Now there ,V are nearly 400. Approximately 4,-' ' " 000 teachers' homes in the United States are now occupied by 12,000 teachers. Teachers' homes have been acquired in different ways. Some have been donated by public-spirited citizens. The Virginia community leagues last year built five for the schools of that State. Some are old mk school buildings, after they are reM' placed by modern buildings. h r X - t?* \, TI ?????I?y SPUD CROP IS i SLOW COMING The Irish potato crop has been extremely slow in maturing this year. By this time last year and perhaps the year before, and the year before that, the crop was either sold and returns received or the crop was in process of being shipped and sold. The cause of the lateness ,pf the gathering is to be found in the cool weather of the season. Bugs and other insects have been busy while the days and night? were cool, and thus the plants have been held hack later than usual for this crop. tast week the growers were hauling barrels out and this was tafcen as a sign that the digging would begin and soon what there is raised will be ^ ioped off and placed on the markets. The crop is very short. There was not a good stand of plants. The Myrtle Beach Farms Co., the largest nlanters of this crop in the county, is said to have hardly half a crop. Reports from other and smaller farms of the county shows a shortage just about as bad as this. For the past several weeks the local market has been supplied by n?>iwnfo crnrrlpns and bv some CTOWerS who planted a very small acreage and managed to get the crop forward enough to be dug early. These have been sold here and they have supplied "he local demand for the new potatoes. The prices realized have been, .good as compared to some former years when local sales were made here. O' CAKE OF STRAWBERRY BED AFTER HARVEST Clemson College.?After the strawberries have been harvested, the beds should be cultivated clean throughout the summer, the runners removed, and the soil gradually worked towards the crown. If the bed is allowed to grow up in grass and weeds during the summei>only a partial crop of inferior berries will be produced the following spring, for the strawberry produces the bloom buds in embroyo form in the late summer and fall and it is necessary, the horticulturists remind us, that the plants be kept in perfect condition during this period. The strawberry bed should be fertilized in September with about GOO pounds of 8-4-4 fertilizer per acre. This will encourage growth during the fall months and have the plants go into winter quarters with ample foliage to protect them from the cold weather during the winter. Care should be taken not to apply the fertilizer too late iti the fall* or to use to heavy application of nitrogenous f prfrilisr.p rs. DILLON FARMER NOT WORRYING "No, I am not worried over the boll weevil," says R. S. Moore,of Fork, Dillon County. "Before the i oli weevil got here I took a gloomy view of the future, but since he is here and I have found out what kind of animal he is I arp not afraid of him. The boll weevil and co-operative marketing will save the farmer from bankruptcy. If we had continued to plant every acre of land we could get in cotton the South would have been bankrupt in a short while. At the present time there would have been a surplus of from thirty-five to forty million bales of cotton and the chances are you could not have sold it at any price. I have been farming all my life. Before the boll weevil came along I had been planting 20 acres to the plow, divided as follows: Sixteen acres in cotton and four acres in corn. From the sixteen acres I got an .average of ten bales of cotton which at the average of 10 cents a pound gave me $500 for mv cotton. Now I am dividing the 20 acres as follows: Six acres of cotton gives me three bales which at an average of 20 cents a pound turns out $300, and 4 acres of tobacco which will average me $200. You will see I am getting as much money from 10 acres as I used to get from 16 acres in cotton. That still leaves me 10 acres. I plant this extra 10 acres in corn, peas, wheat, oats and potatoes. When I planted 16 acres in cotton, I had to buy the most of my feed and farm supplies,.and it took a good portion of the cash proceeds from the cotton crop to buy the other things which I am now raising at home. Since I have adopted the plan of planting to each plow 6 acres of cotton, 4 acres of tobacco and the other 10 acres in feed and foodstuffs, I have cut my fertilizer bill in half, have reduced my farm expenses by 50 per cent and am building up my lands by a process or rotation." Mr. Moore is one of the largest farmers in the county and farmed so intelligently that he\ always made money on his farms even before the boll weevil came aloncr. He savs his net profit? are larger under the diversified plan as outlined in the foregoing, and even if the boll weevil is exterminated he will not go back to the old plan of plaAtmg a large acreage in cotton and bUyirtg his feed and foodstuffs from the west.?Dillon Herald. - - -O ? 1 y Colds Cause Grip and Influenza LAXATIVE BROMO QUININE Tablets remove the cause.

Letters in which this post was tendered him were signed by Lieut. Col. Harry C. Kramer, general staff, C. R. C. The duty of this advisory board would be to furnish information on the selective service system, it was explained. Others named for this board were as follows: Hugh S. Johnson, Harold S. Stephenson, Winfield S. Price and Claude A. Hope. In making the offer Mr. Kramer said, "I have selected you for this first body because of your exceptional knowledge of draft conditions." Mr. Buck's knowledge of the draft system was gained in serving on the local board during the war and in the office of?the judge advocate in Washington. NEW KIND OF STILL Whiskey Double-Distilled in One Boiling Sumter, May 31.?A newfangled still was discovered Wednesday afternoon near Shiloh by Rural Policeman W. J. Frierson and Magistrate McElveen, who made a raid in Pudding Swamp. The still was a fifty gallon copper one, and consisted of three containers, connected with square piping, so that the whiskey could be double distilled at one boiling. This is the first time a still of this kind has been found in the county and the first time in several years a Veal still has been found in the Shiloh section. With the still were 240 gallons of mash which were destroyed. The still was brought up to the sheriff's olfice where it was seen by many today as an object of much curiosity. o SUPPORTS ASSOCIATION 9 Clemson College.?W. J. Sheely, Extension Livestock Specialist, and secretary of the South Carolina Livestock Association, has received from Gov. Thomas G. McLeod, a letter endorsing the action of the South Carolina Livestock Association in calling upon county officers to enforce livestock and tick eradication laws in those counties still infested, in order that the livestock progress in the lower part of the State may not be further retarded. The resolutions, adopted by the as" sociation at its recent meeting in Charleston, and the letter of Governor McLeod regarding these resolutions are given below: "WHEREAS, the success of the livestock industry in the Coastal Plain i-oufo nrw-vn tVio ennndv of I ^OVO U J/\/H VMV v* vaw.a w ? ticks. "Be it resolved, that all pood citizens make it their business to see that all violations of the laws relative thereto be promptly prosecuted. "That county officers, especially the sheriff and the rural police (in those counties having such) be urged to see that livestock and tick eradication laws be strictly enforced so that the quarantine laws can be raised as soon as possible. "That a copy of this resolution be sent to officers of counties affected." Governor McLeod's Letter. 'Dear Mr. Sheely: "I thank you for copy of resolution passed by your associataion in regard to the enforcement of the tick eradication and stock laws. "I note that you are asking the county officers, especially the sheriff and rural police, to see that these laws are enforced in order that the quarantine may be raised as soon as possible. I most earnestly join in your request to these officers and trust that they will see that the law is enforced; first, for the reason that if is the law of the State of South Carolina; second, for the reason that the quarantine being on against our cattle depreciates their value and debars them from market, necessarily to the loss of those engaged in livestock raising. "Yours very truly, (Signed) THOS. G. McLEOD, Governor." GARDEN SUGGESTIONS By C. C. Newman, Horticulturist Plant cabbage and collard seed during this month for transplanting in August and early September. These will be ready for use during the early fall and winter. Plant tomato seed now in the open ground, and when the plants are about f> inches high transplant to the field. These plants will continue to bear until frost if given proper care. When transplanting tomato plants in hot weather, it is well to use a plant that is 6 to 8 inches in length, setting it in a deep furrow leaving only " or 3 Tf ic WAII ICavcn uut \J l tuc iiu. *v to shade the plants for two or three days. Just before frost the green tomatoes can be gathered and stored for winter use. Tomatoes that Are not more than half-grown at the time of frost will ripen up uniformly if kept in a cool place. Tomatoes gathered in early November can thus be kept , until Cluftetmas. , ! Transplant -eggplants and peppdrs .

JUNE 7, 1923 v FOR FARM PROPERTY < FIRETROTECTION Williamsburg County Farmers' Mutual Fire Insurance Associa- ! tion Organized. Kingstree.?At Kingstree on Satur- i day, May 5th, Mr. Bright Williamson, 1 president of the Darlington Fire Insurance Co., and Dr. W. H. Mills, { Field Agent in Agricultural Finance, of Clemson College, addressed a large crowd of farmers of Williamsburg county on mutual fire insurance. Afterwards they assisted in organizing the Williamsburg County Farmers' Mutual Fire Insurance Association. 1 Williamson County has, according to the 1920 census, a value in farm buildings of $4,331,755. This compares very favorably with the amount in other counties where there are successful farmers' mutual companies, as for instance. York County, $4,010,000; Newberry County, $3,668,000; Oconee County, $3,580,000; Darlington County, $4,401,000. The mutual fire insurance associations in these counties had in 1022, insurance in force as follows: Yo\k County, $2,304,900; Newberry County, $885,125; Oconee County, $1,716,278; Darlington Countv, $1,811,630. It is plain from these figures, says I Dr. Mills, that there i * a wide field for the operation of a farmers' mutual fire insurance association in Williamsburg. It now remains to secure an active board of directors and a competent agent and to campaign for business. Then home protecltion will be available to many persons in wnuamsourg county who are now without it. ? o SOY BEANS OR COWPEAS? Clemson College.?As the soy bean is replacing the cowpea on many farms, it is interesting to note some [ of the advantages that the soy bean has over the cowpea, as stated by R. W. Hamilton, Extension Specialist in velvet beans, soy beans and cowpeas. The yield of both hay and grain is larger from the soy bean. In an experiment conducted at several of the branch stations of the North Carolina Experiment station, where soy beans and cowpeas were grown under the conditions, the average yield of soy bean hay was 3,350 pounds per acre, cowpea hay 2,754 pounds per acre, soy bean seed 15 bushels per acre, cowpea seed 8 bushels per acre. When the acre yields are figured in pounds of protein produced per acre, the results are more strikingly in favor of the soy beans. The soy beans as hay contained 392 pounds of protein, cowpea hay 301 pounds of protein; the soy bean seed contained 280 pounds of protein, the cowpea seed only 84 pounds of protein. This high production of protein feed per acre is one reason why farmers are gettjng such good results from grazing; hogs on soy beans, Soy bean seed contain 30.7 per cent protein. Soy beans will produce a lull crop of seed under adverse weather conditions that will limit or prohibit cowpea seed production. Wet weather that will cause cowpeas to make all vine and no seed will not prevent soy beans from setting a good crop. The same is true of adverse dry weather conditions. Weevils do not injure soy beans as they do cowpeas because the soy bean seed are too hard. In the lower part of the State whene weather conditions and insect damage during the last few years have in many cases ruined the cowpea seed crop, the soy bean has produced a full crop of seed to the open ground as late as the first of June. These will fruit well in the fall. The eggplant is not planted as extensively as it should be. It is a delightful vegetable and should be grown in every garden. Cultivate the same as you would fall tomatoes. [jiy r;1 r?i 1 nnci r* n UJ U uj mQQ2Q2BXC3S3ZD CI DZQ3 EDI3 EQZD3 0ZB9 QIQQSESX&EBSED CI D H Weak | g Back p Mrs. Mildred Pipkin, of r I j j R. F.

A. Spencer, of Cheraw, sold $(500.00 worth of cream from an average of six cows milked in one' year, that year having been finished last February 14th. This represents ] actual cash from cream checks in addition to the skim milk, 3 nice hei- i fer calves, and manure from these cows. During March, Mr. Spencer sold $101.50 worth of butter fat from 8 cows and one cow in the herd paid for all the feed used in that month, according to reports from C. G. Cushman. Extension Dairy Sepcialist. The cows were not on full feed l>ecause spring grazing was not available, but it is worthy of note that this cow with an average daily production of 31 pounds of milk and an average butter fat test of 6.5 per cent, paid the feed bill. This gives her 60.4 pounds of butter fat for the month, which was sold for 50 cents per pound, or on A wi T i^uvtuv* v/v/w 111 v it u i nit'i and Mr. Spencer estimated the month's feed bill for these cows at $30.00. The average butter fat test of Mr. Spencer's herd since January has been 4.0 per cent though during this time he has had several fresh cows, which lowered his average percentage of butter fat. Three factors are making for Mr. Spencer's success with dairy catle, adds Mr. Cushman. They are home grown feed, a good grade herd of cows, and kind care and attention. His cows are grade cows but by careful selection he has cows that are probably above the average. He is keeping a daily milk record on each cow and can tell exectly where he stands. By breeding these cows to the bulls in the Chesterfield County Guernsey Bull Association he will by selection and care soon have a very enviable herd of cows. Mr. Spencer's conditions are very similar to those of hundreds of other farmers. In fact, there are many farmers, who, if they cared to,have conditions such as land, pastures, and buildings more suited to dairying than Mr. Spencer's when he started in. Are Your Shoes Comfortable?

Nancy Allen, who was indicted wi*h Shell Williams and James Williams ror violation of the prohibition laws, pleaded guilty to the charges in the :ase and her sentence was deferred 3n account of using her testimony igainst the others. Tim Bellamy, colored, was tried for violation of the prohibition laws. J. W. Rogers testified he went to Bellamy's house in November with a warrant. He found nothing in the house except a barrel which had contained wine in it. There was a bung hole in it. Three neignbors had gotten drunk there shortly before and witness went there to arrest them. He took them to tlifc magistrate and they told the magistrate they had gotten the wine from Jim Bellamy. Henry Farewell, colored, then testified he was drunk on "monkey rum," he had bought from Jim Bellamy. He was with John Stanley. He also bought red wine, he asserted, from the defendant. John Stanley also testified against the defendant. He was found not guilty. Irene Crosby pleaded guilty to the charge of grand larceny in taking about $200 worth of jewelry from the home of Mr. and Mrs. M. W. Collins, and she was sentenced to serve one year.
