The Edgefield Credit Production Association operating under the Intermediate Credit Bank of Co lumbia has been organized and ready to make loans to farmers in Edgefield and McCormick Counties who offer security to be approved by the Credit Bank. Such loans are strictly for crop and live stock rvoduction and not for refinancing old liabilities. Loans are made only to farmers and those who contem plate making application should do so several days in advance of their needs as it will take some ten days to get the application acted upon. Loans will be made for short pe riods. it being desired that none should run longer than nine months. A representative will be stationed in McCormick to assist farmers in that county. Those in Edgefield County should apply at the office in Edgefield. Those who wish this kind of loan should take advantage of the opportunity. J. H. Courtney, President. After' experiencing several days dT spring-like weather, we feel the sudden changes t& real winter weather. But we shouldn’t mind since the winter, so far, has been very mild. School had to be closed down this week on account of the epi demic of measles in the neighbor hood. During the past week there has been eight cases of measles in Mr. John Lindley’s home. Miss Frances Lindley has been real sick with measles. Mr. Lindley reports that all seem to be getting along fairly well at this time. Florence Hoffman has been con fined to bed for several days with measles. Sympathy is extended to the loved ones of Mr. Rant Brown of Greenwood whose death occurred Friday. Mr. and Mrs. P. B. Parnell of this place attended the funeral of Mr. Brown, father of Mrs. Par nell. Mr. Brown spent some time here last spring with Mrs. Parnell and all spoke of him in high terms Mrs. R. F. South, Miss Letty May South, Mrs. W. G. Mitchell and Mrs. G. W. Cade were Greenwood visitors last Saturday. Mrs. R. F. Moore •©! Elberton is visiting Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Cade Mr. and Mrs. James Gibert of Willington visited Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Harmon last Sunday after noon. Mrs. J. C. Link and two chil dren are visiting Mrs. Link’s moth er in Campobello. Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Link joined in with many other relatives in celebrating the 85th birthday of Mrs. Link’s uncle, Mr. Flemming near Elberton, Ga., last Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Link also visited an aunt of Mrs. Link’s, now 92 years old. Miss Cora Moragne and Mrs. S. E. Moragne were business visi tors in McCormick last Saturday Certified Seed For Irish Potato Crop Clemson College, Jan. 27.—The statement that good seed is half the crop is essentially true in ref erence to Irish potatoes, which are subject to so many serious diseases that it is not safe to use for seed any potatoes other than “certified seed”, says E. H. Rawl, extension horticulturist. This general statement Mr. Raw! makes in part answer to questions often asked by various farmers, especially unexperienced commer cial growers, local market growers, and home gardeners: Are nothem grown seed superior to southern grown seed? Are western seed as good as Maine seed? Are Irish po tato table stock suitable for plant ing? Certified seed potatoes are those which have passed two field in spections and, one bin inspection in the state where .grown”, Mr. Rawl explains. “As it is impossible to tell by. the appearance of the tubers whether th.ey. 4 are infested with the. serious Regeneration of ‘running out’ diseases,-such as mo T sale,, leaf-roll apd spindle tuber, and also because .external treat ments do not control ttyese troubles in eifcber ' it.' is safe to plant, anything but certi fied seed. “On the average there is little difference in the quality of certi fied seed from the several stater producing certified stock. Most of the certified seed stock used in this state comes from Maine, but seve ral of the western states produce high-quality seed stock. There fore, the important consideration is to obtain certified seed whatever the source. As an added precaution against disease trouble Mr. Rawls advises following the • practice of many progressive growers who treat seed for control of such diseases as rhizoctonia, black leg, and scab and spray plants in the spring for early blight and late blight.
