Well, anyway, when it comes to etiquette Emily Post is a good one to tie to. ers in the Beauort and Charleston County tomato growing sections used 1,000 pounds or more of 8-4-10, claiming that the high potash con tent of this fertilizer made the plants keep their foliage better, gave a gen erally healthier plant, and that it made a beker quality tomato, but that th e Clemson Experiment Station did not have any data backing up these claims. “ • The Beaufort-Charleston tomato growers have tried many analyse® of fertilizer during the past fifteen years |ty-two (22) acres, more hr less, bounded North by lands of T. A. Allendale, April 15.—A tri-county, Greene; East by land 8 of W. M. Meyer medical society was formed here last night at th e meeting held at the’town hall, with 16 doctors present, Allen dale, Hampton and Barnwell Counties being represented. The organization will be known as the South. Carolina Savannah Valley Medical Society. Officers were elected a 3 follows: Dr. G. W. I. Loadholt, Jennys, presi dent; Doctor Peeples, Hampton County, vice-president; Dr. H. A. and most of them are using, as Mr. j Gross, Barnwell, secretary and treas- Watson stated, 1,000 to 1,500 pounds urer; Doctor Truluck, Orangeburg, of the 8-4-10 or 8-4-12 fertilizer, part under the crop and the rest at top dressing. One of my good friends told me district counseller, he and Dr. J. S. Matthews, Denmark, being the or ganizers.^ ' ~~ —— The trouble with Bishop Cannon that he thinks he’s a “Big Bertha’’ hen, as a matter of fact, he’s only trence mortar. We don’t know whether Ex-Gover nor Byrd’s suggestion that prohibition be submitted to a vote of the people is a good one or not. Both John J. Raskob and Bishop Cannon have ap proved the idea. We understand that some 700 or 800 new acts w r ere parsed at the last lamented session of the general as sembly. If a reasonable tax could be placed on all new legislation, to be paid by the legislators, the property tax levy could be entirely eliminated. Solon, a man of w’isdom was called upon by a ruler of ancient Greece for a solution of the difficulties in which the farmers of that age found themslves. He responded by cancelling debt 9 and restoring the farms to the tillers of the soil. Our present-day legislators are called “scions’ and are presumed to be men of wisdom. In central to the original Solon, however, must of them seem to think that a solution of the modern farmers’ difficulties lies in adding more tax burdens to their debt-bur dened lands. Mill, it was announced. The next meeting will be held June about some of his plantsTn his gar-1 ^ following a fish fry, at Deer’s den yellowing and asked me for a remedy. I asked whether or not he had used large amounts of lime on his soil, or whether there wa 8 present old lime mortar. Where your plants are turning yellow, it may be an indication that the soil ha g too much lime in it—that it is too sweet. If that is the case a very small application of manganese sulphate will change the color of the plants, generally inside of a week. Remember the name Manganese Sulphajt^, not magnesium sulphate. Your fertilizer man can 'furnish you this material. This applies not only to garden plant.®, bqt to field crops. Cabbage will respond .very quickly to the man ganese, where the grower has used excessive quantities of lime. Some of the Beaufort County cabbage grower s have had remarkable results with it. The University of Florida has pub lished a bulletin on the use of man^ ganese sulphate, write for it if you are interested. How thick can you leave sweet corn and make a crop, provided you can control the amount cf water the crop gets? This i 3 a question I have been asked recently, and frankly, I can’t answer it. Maybe some of our read ers can an-wer it. I would appreciate a letter from you. The corn is Country Gentleman, and is highly fertilized and planted under irrigation. Will two stalks every six inche 3 make? In reading the Market Growers Journal of April 1st, I read, with a great deal of interest the article en titled “Side Dressing Wisconsin Cab bage Profitably.’’ It would be of interest to South Carolin a cabbage growers, also.

The attention of those of our citi zens who have .strayed from the Democratic fold, and of others who may be contemplating such action, is respectfully directed to the column, “Barnwell 50 Years Ago,” in which i* reproduced this week excerpts from an editorial in The Abbeville Press and Banner and reproduced in The Bain well People a half-century ago. We quote therefrom: “Let us keep a!' vt * an undying hatred and sworn opposition to such tyranny as i 3 now being practiced on us.” How soon have our people forgot ten the rank injustices, ignominy and shame of Radical misrule during the teirihle days of Reconstruction! “Lord God of hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget! Lest we forget!” HOPOCATRUC By G. Chalmers McDermid. I spent three days in the Hampton- Allendale vegetable section last week t%l^ing tomato production to the can ning factory growers. The canning factory officials have offered $15 per ton fer first quality ripe tomatoes and this figure i s about $6 per ton better than that offered by Maryland canners. To my way of thinking, $15 for to matoes is as good- a bet as 18 cent cotton, because 6 ton s of tomatoes on an acre is not a big yield. Eighteen cent cottcn was made when Uncle Sam’ s dollar would buy a whole lot fewer necessities than it will now. Fifteen dollar tomatoes are a real good, bet, Mr. Canning Factory Grower, better cal! it. la the meetings held under the aus pices of the canning factory at Fair- fax, Mr. E. H. Rawl, Exten-ion Hor- tkalturalist recommended that the growers use 1,000 pounds per sere of 8-4-0 or 10-4-6 fertilizer. Mr. Watson, assistant extension hertkoltnrslist, stated at th e AUen- that meat of the grow- Clem-on College, Apiil 19.—It re cently cost a S. uth Carolina dairy man who did not feed according to production and condition $41.78 more to feed his five cow 3 fjr four months than it cost another dairyman to feed his five cows four months for almost exactly the same total milk yield, according to C. G. Cushman, exten-ion dairy specialist, who points out that this difference in feed cost is therefore so much difference ‘in profit due to use of intelligence in feeding. Other striking instances cited by Mr. Cushman from the records of the mail -order cow testing a-sociation now being conducted through his of fice carry worthwhile lessons. One herd owner has persisted in feeding every ccw in his herd the same amount of feed regardless of her size, age, condition, cate of fresh ening, or efficiency in converting fe’ed into milk or butterfat. A glance at the summary of his herd shows that it ranked 14th in amount of milk per cow per day, 15th, or last, in feed cost per day? feed cost per 100 pounds of buttorfat, and in the amount of milk produced, per pound in grain. A large herd of more than 100 cows showed a feed cost cf $1.11 per 100 pounds cf milk the first ftionth, which is-unusually godd for a herd of this size. The ownep ha s been suc cessful in further reducing the feed cost to $1.02 per 100 pounds of milk. The saving in feed brought about in four months by this apparently small saving ha s meant just $196.92 to the owner of this herd. Two cows were sold for beef from one herd whep it was found that over a period cf 91 day s they produced a total of only 1246 pounds cf milk and 71.3 pounds of butterfat at a feed cost of $40.32. Th e tw T o cows culled out produced milk at a feed cost of $3.24 per lOOjxmnds as compared with $1.51 per 100 pounds for the entire herd. This was 2.1 times tl^ herd On and after April 20, 1932, the State Finance Committee will receive subscriptions to State Tax Antici pation notes bearing interest at the rate of 6 per cent, per annum and maturing on an average of nine months from April 20, 1932.
