The prizes consist of two pure bred bulls, one beef type and the other milk type, pure bred hogs and chickens, and numerous prizes of choice corn Mr. H. P. Brawner, General Traffic Manager of the Atlantic Greyhound Lines, has announced widespread bus fare reduttiens to cities outside the state. The new fares went into effect January 15. The cost of travel to literally thousands of places—large cities and crossroad towns alike—are cut considerably. . Since Grey hound transportation, even before the fares were lowered, cost less than any ether type of transpor tation, this new reduction is naturally a matter of more than ordinary interest to all travelers. The public’s reaction to the lower rates will undoubtedly first be reflected' in an increase of bus traffic to the Florida and Gulf Coast resorts. Although Grey hound has already augmented its service to these mid-winter vaca tion areas to care for normally in creased business at this time of year, it is expected that still fur ther additions will have to be made to handle extra numbers of travelers who will take immediate advantage of the new rate cuts. Suggests Kudzu Has Important Place On Many Farms Of State'Sy is.' Green Feed Supply Needed For Poultry Clemson, Dec. 31.—Since many growing and laying flocks are confined to small yards with little access to good quality green feed, it is well to plan the 1939 green '--i supply in advance, John Matthews, assistant extension poultryman, suggests. “Each year a few choice handy patches may be selected to supply green feed”, the specialist says. “A seeding of rape may be made early in the spring, and this should last about six months. Rape makes an excellent and succulent growth on rich ground, and in order to obtain best growth the patches should be covered well with any good manure ex cept poultry manure and plowed early in the spring for the Tape seeding. “The rape may be plowed under in the fall and a thick seeding of rye, oats, or ryegrass made for a source of green feed during the winter.” BIG OPPORTUNITY WITH REAL FUTURE John Muir, famed naturalist and so-called “father” of national parks, will be honored by a fete at the 1939 California World’s Fair next April 22. xx A gigantic, state-wide celebra tion will lead up to the opening of the 1939 Golden Gate Internation al Exposition on San Francisco Bay’s Treasure Island next Febru- Well rated manufacturer, es tablished 30 years, manufacturing a specialty sold to farmers, in stitutions, and factories is in creasing his national sales force.

Chevrolet- December Sales Up Sharply Detroit, Jan. 9.—Continuing the sharp upward trend established in November, Chevrolet dealers sold 66,832 new passenger cars and trucks in December, W. E. Holler, general sales manager, an nounced today. This is an in crease of 13,229 units, or 24.7 per cent, over sales for December 1937. Used car sales during the same period increased 3,845 units, or 3.7 per cent, over those for December 1937, the figures being 107,231 in December 1937. Total units, new and used, sold during the month, were 174,063, Mr. Holler stated, as compared -vJth 156,989 in December of the r 'revious year. This is an increase f ■<7 074 units, or 10.9 per cent. “Especially significant,” Mr. Heller said, “is December’s sharp ~>c~casu over even November’s fine record.

In digestible pro tein analysis, kudzu, with a diges tible protein content of 12 per cent, compares favorably with the high-protein group of legume roughages, according to Henry and Morrison’s “Feeds and Feed ing”. Not only is kudzu high in food value, but it is excellent in its physical characteristics as it makes a very leafy hay and is free from large coarse stems. Its drought-resistant character and its ability to propagate itself on marginal land with a reasonable amount of attention give it a great deal of promise as a supple mental forage, grazing, and soil- conserving crop in South Caro lina. Extension Circular 164, Kudzu n South Carolina, gives detail in- rermation on the growing and uses of kudzu. xx The Farming Outlook For 1939 Published r nioi^p~ds of visitors to the 1939 California World’s Fair will remain in San Francisco or re turn later to tuke up residence in Northern California, after the Exposition ends. t\r Trees, shrubs and flowers na tive to the eleven states which will exhibit in the Hall of Western States at the 1939 California World’s Fair, will be planted around the building. x Hew to grow plants without soil will be demonstrated in a scientific exhibit, at the 1939 Cali fornia World’s Fair.
