RECENT FARM READING OF EXTENSION SERVICE I H. G. Boylston, Barnwell County farm agent, calls the attention of farm people and others interested to several new publications recently is-1 sued by the Extension Service of Clemson College, particularly to two that deal with the production and use | of dairy products. These two publications are Circu-| lar 157, “The Family Dairy Cow,” | and* Bulletin 100, “The Use of Milk and Its Products on the Farm,” the former stressing the production of dairy products and the latter telling | how to make the best use of these! products. Closely related is another recent I extension publication, Bulletin 99, “Permanent Pastures for S. Carolina,” carrying valuable information on | making and maintaining good pas tures, which are an important factor I in milk production, says Mr. Boyls-| ton. Two other Extension Service circu lars, issued in the spring, the county I agent thinks should be of interest and value to farm people, are Circular 155, ‘The Well Kept Farm Home,” dis cussing inexpensive improvements, and Circular 156, “The Cotton Con test—1937, showing results, conclus ions and suggestions regarding the| State cotton improvement contest.
