- A Fencing Campaign I Clemson College, August 18.? A! wise man or wisely directed corpora- i I tion during periods of properitv will! make investments in permanent im- j proverients which later help to tide j over periods of depression. The same ! principle holds good in farming, says 1 acting director of extension, D. W. Watkins. This is the logical time to: invest money in needed permanent | _ improvements on the farms of South! Carolina, because, while there are | W some farmers who are not prosper-; ^ ous, the majority are more prosper-' ous than they nave been in recent; years. In addition to such improvements I as home water works and farm I omtomc nnp of the creat-1 ? csts needs is for more wire fencing. There has been without doubt a growing interest in livestock production for several years past Statistics show this to be true. The county ' agricultural agents and live stock specialists have assisted in the mar-' keting of forty-one cooperative carloads of hogs since the first ->f January. The business of pork production is sure to grow. The advent of the boil weevil will increase the production of all kinds of live stock.. More fencing is necessary if we expect to engage seriously ir livestock > production. Mr. V. W. Lewis, field loader in live stock extension, who first suggested a campaign to increase the amount of land under fence is securing wholesale price lists on wire from various manufacturers and j ~ with other specialist^* working out | _ . a plan by which large quantities of I RI wire may be purchased coo(>era:ive-! ly by farmers with the assistance of ^ county agents. Mr. H. W. Barre, director of the experiment station, is preparing an extension circular on A the creasoting of fence posts, and this circular will be available in the, near future. When this matter is , arranged it is believed that county agants and, ' specialists may render valuable ser- Bo vice to farmers by encouraging the >tn cooperative purchase of wire in car- Au Wo sinH Kir orivintr instructions and a 1 demonstrations in creasoting fence: -;n posts. wo 0 ' ed See the new finished MAJESTIC ; C . ? v range?sanitary, easy to keep clean,. ] econo tica), and a beauty.

This true story tells how War Sewif* Stamps built a aura protection round one Washington war worker id his family. Early in the war savings campaign i began a small systematic inveet*nt in Thrift Stamps, which ultimately grew until he had as in reelect of $100. He says he acquired La stamps without depriving himilf or family. The invaatmaut "just raw" out of incidantal savings. Presently this incidental money scamc scarce. The war worker and is family felt the burden of the wari? e high cost of living, and :be arx- ; ty and expense of extraordinary ill- ; sss of the two children. Then an- j ther blow fell. He awoke one morn- j lg to find that he had no place to ? vs. His residence had been sold and j p and his family were asked to va-; ite. He could find no houses for j mt within his meansf and waa eon onted with the necessity of leaving ^ M Hte/ VI I? HVM?? unily. He could not buy without taking a substantial initial payen t, and rsady funds were seemigly beyond reach. Then be thought of his War Savigs Stamps. He remembered they re redeemable on ten days' notice, ith accrued interest. With the proteds ef these stamps and such small ims as be could gather he made rst payment on a new home in the ihurbe. Recently he refused to sell it foi L,200 more than the purchase price.
