Science and brains skilfully applied to farming so Increase the yield a ad improve its quality us to make some knowledge of 'lie under-, lying principles of scientific farming taaentlaJ to the farmer of today. While it Is realist d that the lour years courae Is none too long to give a boy the foundation which will in? sure success In farming, it is als ? clearly laen that there are many practical farmers who have neither the time nor the m. ans to devote four years to a college, eourse and who would be greatly benefited by a few weeks spent at college. To meet such a demand the College offers a short course of four weeks during tin; month of January. This courae in agriculture ll a practical course in farming and is meant for farmers, it would aid the man who wants to farm en a business basis and who desires to net larger returns for his labor. The entire resources of the College ar t" at the service I f the Short Course students. This In itself is a liberal education. In their woik they may utilize the new- barns, the finest in the South; the m w dairy building; the Experiment Station grounds; the Col? lege (arm; the Horticultural plant; j the various laboratories ol the Agri? cultural Department; .and the general libraries. They are also invited to J take part in any student activities in which they Care to engage, January i'.rd. liMo inaugurates the beginning of the third session for short course students. The tirst two years of this course proved unusually success? ful, All who have taken the short c? use agree that it has. paid them many fold. The. work will consist of the fol? lowing subjects: animal husbandry, seven hours per week; dairying, three houri per week; soil types and soil management, five hours par week; farm machinery, four hours per weak; horticulture, three hours per week; veterinary science, two hours per Week! study of injurious insects and how to control them, tWO hours per week; plant diseases, two hours per week; and cotton grading, four hours per Week.

Today i have been in consultation \s i11) the Plant Breedera' Association of the sraie in effecting a, permanent organisation, and with Secretary Stevenson of the National i urn show to have' a Farmers' i don day during tin- corn show. We have agreed upon I a day, and tomorrow at Raleigh i will ' submit it to President Barrett and ! Seeretarj Davis of t li?? National Unh n. We wa.nL to pull t.fl the biggest Farmers' Union rally ever held in South Carolina. The reports com? ing in to Uro. Keid's tfflce today in? dicate that politics have subsided and our people are turning to the Farm ers' Union again. 1 do hope that Sumtes County will take s good stand toward tin- front, and it' our people and tiie loyal members will respond to lire Williams' efforts Bumter County Union will double Its strength bj February. * * ? The remarks of Mr. 1?. R. Coker, who was unanimously elected Presi? dent of the riant Breeders' Associa? tion, about the condition of the extra staple cotton market, and need of the Farmers' Union were very appro pi late. I wish that a stenographic report could be given of what he said. It would be an eye opener to some people. He said among other per? tinent remarks: "l have doubted the wisdom of calling upon the gov? ernment to aid us In marketing:, but conditions in the extra staple busi? ness have about convinced nrre that the Farmers' Union warehouse bill is along right lines, and l bope may be found constitutional." *? # A These tWO working together, the plant breeders for standard types of the best crops and the Farmers' Union for marketing standardized crops in a business-like way, will make a team that Will bring results. Watch tHero! and fellow farmers join us in those good works. E, W. D.
