your crop with Natural Chilean Soda — to supply quick

Chilean Nitrate is valuable not only as a source of nitrogen,

of other plant food dements naturally blended with it.

Some investigators are now ad
vising not to feed milk in large
quantities because it appears that
milk has little or no value in
checking the disease, and because
a high milk ration will cause a
watery diarrhea which creates an
ideal condition for coccidia to de
velop.
If accurate diagnosis shows that
the birds have coccidiosis, one-
third teaspoonful of powdered
crude catechu may be used in each
gallon of drinking water, this to
be kept before the birds for only a
few days.

Total of $70.13
Disallowed By
Public Welfare
Out of a total of $488,837.35 dis
bursed by the State Department
of Public Welfare during the first
five months of its operations, a
total of $70.13 has been tentatively
disallowed by auditors of the Fed-
°rel Social Securitv Board. This
in 1937. Because of prices secured
acreage increased from 4,200 acre 3
in 1936 to 6,500 acres in 1937. Cro
reports indicate that the acreage
this year in the state will note
11,500 acres, or almost 100 per
cent increase.
Since tomatoes are becoming an
important truck crop in South
Carolina, and acreage is also :.i
creasing in competing states, Mr
Prince is of the opinion that tb'
South Carelina growers should
make every effort possible to ship
only a high quality pack. In re
cent years, he says, the South Car
olina tomatoes have been receivr'-
very favorably in the eastern
terminal markets because of good
quality.
. Mr. Prince points out that the
Bureati of Agricultural Economics
reports show acreage in Georgia
for 1938 as 11,000 acres as com
pared with 4,500 acres in 1937 and
1,600 acres for the ten-year aver
age 1927-36. These increases with
those in Louisana, Mississippi,
and east Texas will give the group
of states in which South Carolina
is included a total of 64,490 acres
as compared with 49,400 acres last
year, or an increase of 31 per cent.
Much of the increase in the
acreage in South Carolina is by
new growers, and they should

Payne, “An intelligence of a cbBi

“It may be seen in gorgeous
masses in natural settings in
Poinsett State Park which is less
than an hours drive from Colum

ride from Sumter”, advises Mr. j
Walker. Over fourteen hundred I
people viewed the Mountain Laurel
at Poinsett on Sunday April 24.
However, to see it in mountain
settings go to Table Rock State
Park near Pickens, Oconee State
Park near Walhalla and Paris
Mountain State Park near Green
ville”.
The mountain laurel is also
found in many other localities in
South Carolina but in the State
Parks it is protected from woods
fires, cutting and from damage by
livestock. The nature trails in the
parks are located to take visitors
through or by the most beautiful
patches and masses of laurel,
thereby giving both young and old
an opportunity to view it at close
range or in pleasing perspective.

Outlook For Larger
Acreage Of Tomatoes
Columbia, May 2.—For the past
two years prices of tomatoes/
grown for market in South Caro
lina as “green wraps” have been
very satisfactory, states Geo. E. ‘
Prince, of the Clemson College
Extension Service Marketing Divi
sion, the price averaging $2.00 per
bushel in 1936 and $1.75 per bushel
Clemson, May 2.—To guide busy
farmers in essential farm activi
ties in May, Extension specialists
make these suggestions:
Agronomy
Do not ruin a good stand of cot
ton by chopping it all out. Leave
two or three stalks every 8 to 12
rnches.
For a profitable investment
make a side application of nitro
gen to cotton soon after chopping.
Plan to put all grain stubble
land into soybeans, cowpeas, or
velvet beans for soil-conserving
and soil-building crops.
Horticulture
Sow tomatoes for July trans
planting, collard and cabbage for
August transplanting.
Mulch tomatoes heavily with
straw or leaves to hold moisture
and prolong fruiting.
Do not cultivate beans while the
foilage is wet.
Apply nitrate of soda to garden
ciops if not growing well.
Do not cut young asparagus too
closely; fertilize and manure the
t._d after cutting season.
Insects and Diseases
Dpray fruit trees for curculio,
c. tiling moth, and diseases.
Spray pecans with Bordeaux to
control scab.
Sand apple trees for codling
noth by May 15.
Control Irish potato and tomato
(•■ceases and insects with Bor-
d aux-lead arsenate spray.
Arrange to poison the boll weevil
early.
Get ready to fight the screw
worm.
Agricultural Engineering
Keep working parts of farm
machinery greased or oiled, as this
