Singing Different Tunes During the past few weeks a great many wagons have gone out of Pickens loaded with fertilizers. Thought the farmers were not going to use much this year, but. it looks like they are going to use a good deal. Guess it will be like the good old woman said some years ago. She said in the spring of the year she could hear the farmers, as they passed by her house with their wngons full of ferti lizer, singing "I am hound for the promised land, " etc. Then, she Said, in the fall, when their fertilizer bills came due and cotton was selling at a low price, as they passed her house she could hear them singing in a doleful, melancholy way. "Show pity, Lord; oh! Lord, forgive; Let a repenting rebel live." Look out for the old wagon next fall and listen for the same old tune.

COW AND RE~R PRODUCT ( These. no es are prepared by the dairy divisi of Clemson College, wvhicl1 will be. ad to answer any questioms peritair' g to dairying.] Are there any deadhead1s in I ur dlairy? If there are, wveed em out. Calves need~ plenty of shad( and shelter and they should alsc have free access to salt and fres2 water all the time. Nearer and nearer comes the ime for silo b~uildingt). Silage, remember, is the cheapest and best succulent winter feed. Running a dairy without keep ing records and testing is like running a bank wvithout keeping a set of ledgers. Keep records and( fire the deadheads cows. If you don't know what your cows give and you don't know what you give your cows, why (10 von keep co ws? Keep records. Keeping production records is only half the wvork. How much did it cost you to feed that cow that gave you 6,000 pounds of milk last yeai'? Keep records and keep them right.

Fife .Sears ago I thought 1 could not make a living without raiing cotton, but every year found me wiph the same old comlaint-nothink to begin miy taet crop oh. If I made money one year;I lost-it the next. My wife suggested that- we make a cha-e'she was always quot IngThe gresolve Farmer to me. I told her that folks with money could farm. that. Way but Dapoor 'mati had to make all cotton. But finally I decided I could Jio no worse by changing my plans. We had one milk cow and a bull. We lost the cow, bhen traded - the bull for two [lelfers and bought another cow, and in a few weeks she died. We bought another cow on cred it and began sowing clover and cowpeas and small grain. In the mbantime we ordered six pure bred White Leghorn hens and a cock. We sold enough butter, chickens and eggs to buy a Jersey bull calf, and I sold the only hog we had and bought a pair of Duroc-Jersey pigs. Re sult: We are living at home, have six milk cows, ten yearlings, a tine flock of chick ens, a pretty fair start of hogs, plenty of vegetables and fruit, and I consider my land almost doubled in value. My five years' experience try ing to farm according to the Progressive Farmer proves that a man can make a start toward better farming without. money to begin with.-F. R. Clifton in Progressive Farmer. From Shiloh, Oconee County Mr. Editor: If you can spare the space I shall be glad to send just a short letter from your sis ter county. Farming is on a boom in this community. The weather for the last few weeks has been fine. Thursday, April 6, our people began planting cotton seed, and now several are following suit. Small grain is doing well and nearly everybody has a large percentage of their lands sowed. As this is my first letter from this side I shall not write any personal news. I enjoy reading your correspon dent's letters very much, as the greater 6art of my life so far has been spent in Pickens county; So in reading Mountain Sprout Of Sunset I find he wishies to know when February has and will have five Sundays.
