Test Cotton Seed
To Guard Againstfl
Poor Germination
Clcjnson College, Dec. 30.—Germ
ination tests made on the 1033 cot
ton seed crop show that seed irom
many sections of the state are of
very poor quality for planting pur
poses, according t6 R. W. Hamil
ton, extensitM Agronomist, wBb ad
vises that farmers play safe by hav
ing germination tests made.
“In view of' the necessity for
planting a reduced acreage under
the 1934 cotton acreage control
plan, it is highly important”, says
Mr. Hamilton, “for every farmer to
be sure that the seed he does plant
are of high quality both in breeding
and in germinating power.
1 “The South Carolina seed law
ompowefs the commissioner of ag
riculture to make teed germination
tests for any farmer asking this
' service.. Mr. J. Roy Jones, commis-
jsioner of agriculture,.Columbia, has
j installed modem seed-testing equip-
|ment and will be glad to make
germination tests on seed samples
£ent to him”, Mr. Hamilton states.

THE MODERN SMALL HOME
The small home of the future
will be a very different sort of a
place than that of the past. It will
offer, at a very moderate price, ad
vantages, conveniences and com
forts that were unknown even in
the mansions of. another time. It

t ities for originality in design and

a 1 perhaps, it will provide the
maximum of protection against
fie, tornadoes, hurricanes and
o.her destructive elements.
The objectives to be attained in
the modern home, are low first
cost, low depreciation, low mainte
nance and long-time economy. And
