Pickens School' End& Session The Pickens High school elosed a very successful session last, Wednesday evening with appro priate exercises in the school aulitorium.

Clemson college could be of more benefit to the people if.-the people them selves would obly take advantage of the opportunities the college offers. Every farmer who uses fertilizer contributes to the main tenance of Clemson college and it Is up to our farmers to get more benefit from this institu tion. The faimers of Pickens, Oconee and Anderson counties have a better chance to benefit from it than the people of any other county, because the college is located in these three counties and therefore easy for our peo pie to visit. The following letter is self-explanatory: Editor Pickens Sentinel: We believe that the location of Clem, son college in the corner made by the intersection of Anderson, Oconee and Pickens counties ought to make the college es pecially valuable as a source of ] help and information to the farmers of these three counties. Many of them, it is true, take advantage of these opportunities frequently, but the majority of the farmers of Anderson, Oconee and Pickens a r e practically strangers at the agricultural college. I can understand some of the reasons for this. The farmers know this is a big institution and most of them would be un certain as to where to go for their help and information after I they reached the college. More over, they do not know a. great many of the people here. It is my opinion that the farm ers of the three "home counties" of Clemson College should make proper use of the opportunities lying at their doors and should make it a point to use the re sourses of this institution when ever they need them. Accordingly, I have advised our farm demonstration agents in Anderson, Oconee and Pick ens counties to set aside one day in each month, on which day they are to come to Clemson College and bring with them all farmers who may desire to come. These county agents, two of whom are graduates of Clemson and the other of whom is fa miliar with conditions here, will be able to conduct the farmers about the college, pointing out to them various experiments andi taking them to the proper pliaces to get the informatioil they may dlesire. All farmers who have problems they desire solved1 for them should try to come with their county agent on these monthly visits to Clemson College. D~r. Riggs will be very glad1 to furnish dinner to the farmers at the small cost of 25 cents each. I should be glad1 to have you publish this letter in order that those farmers who are readers of your paper may be advised of this plan. Respectfully, W. W.
