Clemscn College, June 2.—With
prominent visitors, including Assist
ant Secretary of Agriculture Rex
Tugwell, Dr. Frank Bohn, Senator
James F. Byrnes, and perhaps Secre
tary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace,
and with a well balanced general pro
gram in the making, Clemson College
Farmers’ Week will offer farm people
and other citizens an excellent menu
of good things this year, says Dr. W
W. Long, director of the Extension
Service, who is chairman of-the Farm
ers’ Week committee. The big gath
ering, which wilf be hetrt August H-
17, is the first since 1929 and special
effort will be made by all depart
ments of the college to make it
real success.
In general plan, says Dr. Long, this
year’s Farmers’ Week will be similar
to those held in previous years. Each
day will be a five-sided feast of
good things: (1) General meetings
with addresses and music for inspira
tion, (2) classes or instruction on all
charge; District 6, Rock Hill, office of
in
N.
Quality Store, D. L. Rice
District 7, Spartanburg,
Main Street, D. M. Bullington in
charge, and District 8, Greenville,
Fointsett Hotel, Grady Miller in
charge.
Mr. Mims said considerable confus
ion had resulted in the registration of
tfce trucks due to the use of the ex
pression "For Hire.’’
"This should really be ‘for compen-
aation* since the code provides that
anyone operating a truck for pay
comes under the code,” said Mr.
Mims.
‘Tor instance, a merchant may sell
a certain article in Columbia for $10.
But delivered to a town 26 miles a-
way, he charges $10.50, the difference
being purely a transportation charge.

practical demonstrations, (4) recrea
tion for relaxation and amusement,
(6) evening program for entertain
ment.
“Past Farmers’ Weeks were real
boong to farm people, thousands who
came have testified, and the State’s
agricultural college is now ready to re
peat this great service to the people.
With new facts and ideas to stimu
late, new visions to inspire, new
friendships to elevate, new scenes to
give pleasure, the occasion should be
a delightful outing and vacation as
well as a profitable course of instruc
tion,” says Dr. Long, urging every
body to make plans to come.
