S. r Newman, Director of tho Agricul. tural Department o/ClemsonCollege. Prof. \V\ S. Morrison, who 1ms charge ? of tho Department of History, and Prof. C. (> Upton, in charge of D.ii* ' ryiDg and Animal Husbandry, held a Farmer's Institute in Joncsvilio. Col. Newman gave tho farmers edvicc about tho preparation of tho soil and cultivation of several important i crops. Ho said : , "The soil should receive tho deep i plowing in the full when the land is i dry, and corn and cotton ought not i to be plowed deeper than two inches } after tlie plitnt gets twelvo inches i high. This mode of ploughing cuts . on the irrass and does not rftnlnrha 3 tho roots of tho plant. > One ncro of well prepared Bermuda , grass is worth uny two of alfalfa i' or bluo grass unywhero in the United Stules. , Fall cabbage may bo planted any 1 time from September until November 3 but tho bud should rest, on the , ground thus protecting tho stem f from the cold and cut worms. The worms would then cut the leaves and - nol the stems." Those nro a few of l tlie suggestions offered by this vete eran agriculturist who says,his life s bus been divided ihto periods of eight, i years experimenting in Alabama, (Jeorgia a?>d South Carolina, although e this distinguished educator comes I from Virginia and typifies the ideal t gentleman of the Old Dominion. n L'rof. Upton told us that Dairying o is a paying business and needs en i conrajjemorir, as no part ox tho covint try offers such u variety of forage i- crops useful to dairying as the Boutlx. it ' The Jersey gives milk five per cent, of which Is fat; while the Kgistelu la 1** n i i ii id the V . (13 k 12 mi. | I i ' 's Old Stand. I a producer of more milk not so rich, as Its per cent, is only three. Children should drink a great de?l of milk. One acre of Bermuda grass will keep three cows. i'rof. Morrison is a delightful speaker and has the hannv art ol holding his audience ev?-n wheu they are feeling the pangs of hunger, He made several pleasing remarks about Jonesville and its up-to-date hosiery work, llo mentioned the fact that Union county had sent only three students to Clemson College last year. Among many other facts lie told the farmers that in no year since Clemson has been in operation h- s there been under forty per cent, o' its students fanner's sons an-1 t henumber of farmer's sons there has been as high as sixty nine per cci t He says more boys go back to the farm than to any other profession. Next to the Agricultural student* cotnes the number who take the course in Electrical Engineering LJrdf. Morrison feels that Clemson College is doing the work that is so much needed. In a class of sixty this year, thirty of the young men had received positions before they got their diplomas, and some of these young men are now drawing larger salaries than their Professors who taught them. These facts go to prove that the man with the practical, tefehnicu! training is the one who is in demand, and will receive the pay. Prof, Morrison is the gifted nephew of South Carolina's notable son and educator, i)r. James II. Carlisle, ami hoisabrolhir of the teacher who died in Union some years ago. ^ s. c . Cheap Rules.
