Oct. 14.—In 1941 there was an increase over the previous year of approximately 25 per cent in number of South Carolina farmers planting wheat and in wheat acreage harvested, says Thos. W. Morgan, assistant direc tor of the Clemson College Exten sion Service, citing figures from the state office of the Agricultural Adiustment Administration. “These figures show”, Mr. Mor- ! gan reports, “that in 1940, 39.960 farmers harvested 195.710 acres of ; wheat and in 1941, 48,887 farmers ; harvested 246.089 acres of wheat ; in South Carolina, or an increase of 8 927 farmers and 50,379 acres. “Representing an average of only a few acres per farmer, this wheat increase is evidence of the progress cf the Better Farm Liv ing program being conducted by the Extension. Service, the AAA. county and community leaders, and other agencies interested in rural welfare. “Last fall the Extension Service campaigned for more farm fami lies to pledge to grow 75 percent of their food and feed needs. Wheat for home use was one of the principal items pledged by these better farm livers, and this year’s impressive increase whll go a good way toward meeting their needs. A similar pledge campaign for Better Farm Living is being conducted this fall.” X Carolina Lasses Lead In Classes Columbia, Oct. 14.—Women ex ceeded men in scholarship at the University of South Carolina in the second semester last year, ac cording to figures recently released by the registrar’s office.
