CLEMSON COLLEGE, April 22.— The continued decline in number of work animals on South Carolina farms is bringing about a rather serious situation as to farm power according to mule dealers who are in close contact with the situation, says J. T. McAlister, extension ag- ricmtural engineer. Regardless of the prevailing low prices of farm products, old and inferior mulcts have been bringing $15 to $25 more this year than last season. “These higher prices,” Mr. McAl ister explains, “are clearly the re sult of the decline in number of mules and horses being raised for replacements, and /the fact that it requires three oij more years to pro duce these animals. Recent fig ures show that there were on IS EE WELL WITH THE CHILD? _ * _ Sanders, Jr., other officers and .south Carolina farms January 1, teachers deserve commendation for 1933, 23,000 horses and colts and their untiring efforts to make this campaign a success. txs Reforestation Is Progressing A report from District Forester H.

The most effective spray is made, he says, by adding 1 1-2 to two pourids of lead arsen ate to each 50 gallons of 4-4-50 Bordeaux mixture. A good dust consists of 20 pounds of hydrated copper sulphate, 20 pounds of cal cium arsenate, and 60 pounds of lime. r . “The first application of spray ■or dust on Irish potatoes should be made as soon as there is any evi dence of insect or disease injury,” Mr. Lutken advises. “Additional applications at about 10-day inter vals may be needed to protect the new foliage. ^ “With tomatoes ifc is a good plan' o spray or dust, as a protective ‘measure, as soon as the plants have become well established after transplanting, and to follow with a second application in about 10 lays and additional applications is needed throughout the season. “Leaf-eating insects and tomato fruit worms can be controlled by lusting with one pound of calcium arsenate thoroughly mixed with five pounds of hydrated lime. It is best to apply dusts when the air is calm and when the plants are only diehtly moist.” eral orders for forest tree seedlings have already been received for planting in the different counties of his district next winter, is indi cative of a wholesome taking hold of the reforestation idea. During the past week Mr. Forsy the has been examining areas in various sections relative to planting the abandoned firm lands that have been “turned out” and left to the mercy of the washing rains. Now that tree seedlings are avail able from the State Forest Tree Nursery at cost, which is practical ly nothing as compared with their ultimate value, these landowners are able to plant them to trees, a crop that requires the minimum of attention, will prevent erosion and add appreciably to the primary re sources of the State. At the present time nearly , 700 pounds of tree seeds representing 14 different varieties are being sown in the Gamden State Forest Tree Nursery according to Mr. For sythe. Approximately 10,000,000 seeds are included, varying in sizo from the head of a pin to the nut of the Black Walnut Tree. Trees raised there will be distributed at cost to farmers and ii&erested land corners who wish to restore idle acres to productivity. The bulk of the seed are of na tive trees of commercial value for reforestation purposes. Slash pine, the most rapid grower of the Southern Pines, heads the list, fol lowed by longleaf pine, loblolly pine and black locust. During the season just passed many orders for forest tree /Seed lings had to be refused by the Com mission due to lack of trees, and this fact, together with the increas ed interest in tree planting, has re sulted in the increased number to be supplied this next season. Trees will be available in December of next year and win be distributed at cost for reforestation purposes. Because of the increasing de mand for forest tree seedlings Mr. Forsythe is urging all prospective tree planters to write to him now relative to an inspection of the area to be planted and the proper species of trees to plant, all at no cost to the property owner, so tha‘ orders can be filed and assured o delivery next winter. 164,000 mules and mule colts, a re duction of eight per cent from the previous year. With. 157,000 farms in the state, this is hardly more than one work animal per farm. Truly we have a state of one-mule , farmers. . “It is again becoming a iery common sight to see bulls and ox en being used as work animals, es pecially in the lower section of the state. Perhaps such a condition heartens these who have charged our present ills tq. machine use and who have advocated the retuin to the primitive forms of ‘power and machinery; but it must be realized that as a rule those using such equipment are doing so only be cause of necessity. “As a contrast to the cx and one- mul^ power there are some 4500 traetors on South Carolina farms, some of which are obsolete per haps or not operating for various causes. In spite Of the popular opinion against their use, this # form of power is destined to' increase rapidly slpce greater and more varied use can be made of tractors new' because of recent improve ments, and since Crop' proauction costs can be lowered to a greater extent by their use 4han by per haps any other type of farm, pow er. , . “A new small size tractor costing about one-third less than the next smallest size is more adaptable to the small farm than other models have been, and when farming op erations are reorganized to permit its maximum use, this tractor will likely replace four to five mules.” X /■ Plan Mining School At Clemson College Spartanburg Journal. A news story in the Charlotte Ob- erver tells of two little boys, aged .10 and 8 respectively, being drown ed in tire reservoir of a textile vill age near that city, they having evi- idently slipped away from home and i one fishing. The incident, tragic land deplorable, is admonition j;nough to parents to keep a look out for the little ones, especially where there is probability of them going to streams, ponds, pools or reservoirs, unaccompanied by ad ults or youths who know how to ewim. This early spring weather lures all to the open, old and young. : There is nothing more venturesome han the spirit of a growing boy, however tender his years. Child hood operates upon the assumption ithat there is always some means of afety and precaution thrown about him or her, without reasoning it out. That is why little ones are frequently struck down and maim ed or killed at school corners of the streets. They walk along without any heed to the approaching auto mobiles, oblivious to imminent death and danger, thinking of a thousand and one things incident to the school Me, or bent on get- ing heme. v X SCHOOL BUS CAUTION COTTON MARKET ADVANCING X.

CLEMSON COLLEGE, April 25.— In view ojf. the great interest in gold mining at the present time, 'Clemson College proposes to con duct a school for those interested in prospecting and working gold deposits.

The death yesterday in North Carolina of four children in a col lision between two school buses should serve to make every driver of such a vehicle more determined to take no chances whatever with his cargo of youthful lives. No one could have a greater trust im posed in him than to be responsible for the.safety of a group of chil dren and it is to the credit of school bus drivers in general that few such tragedies occur. What- few there are, however, are that much too many an5 it is not pos sible to exercise too much caution. —Anderson Daily Mail, April 22. tXt: Store Closing Notice We, the undersigned merchants of Plum Branch wHi close our places cf business at 6 o’clock p. m., Saturdays excepted, from May 1, 1933, to September 1, 1933.
