DID YOU SEE THIS ?
If not read it. It is something every man and woman in South
Carolina. shouM be proud of. Here is what President Meli qf
Clemson College reported to the Legislature: *
As England Sees Us
It is gratifying to note that the agent sent out by the Economic
Msnniatirm of Manchester, England, a few months ago to examine the
ooodition of cotton growing throughout the South, makes the following
report on the conditions as he found them in South Carolina.
?i find that the best farmers, the most systematic and by far the
most thrifty and economical administration of the farm is unquestion?
ably to be found in South Carolina. Here the cultivation of the soil
is regarded as a lifetime pursuit, and in the majority of instances I
found the farmer, whether landlord or tenant, a close student of the
branches of science which enable him to know the wants of the soil
and the proper means of supplying these wants The Clemson Agricul?
tural college has been a real blessing to the farmers of South Carolina.
Under its tutorage, young men have discovered that the cultivation of
the soil is the noblest, and by far the most profitable, occupation they
can enjoy."
