FOR MORE AND BETTER FRUIT
In Bulletin No. 15 of the Farmin
(
er's Read in ft Course on Fruit
Culture, Mr. C. F. Niven, of sa
jClemson, says: an
"After working with farmers uj
in all sections of the State for A
three years, I am thorughly con- co
vinced that there is only one ob- an
stacle that prevents farmers J
from being well supplied with t?!i
fruit from their own farms the hi
year round, and that obstacle is Ri
the lack of proper care of or- pi
cbards." la
It is the expressed aim of the ti
writer in producing this bulletin in
to supply needed imformation to dt
the farmers along this line. in
Each fruit has been discussed P'
separately. Territories to which ti
the various varieties are suited hi
arc indicated; methods of plant- t<
ing, fertilizing, spraying, prun- VS
ing, budding and grafting are ti
given in a perfectly clear aud tr
understandable nniuner. si
This bulletin is free for the w
asking, aud in the hands of Ches 01
terlield county farmers should tl
be worth thousands of dollars to U|
the territory.
mi- . - ? ? ? 1
j.uere is prooaoiy no otner one pi
item in which Chesterfield eoun- hi
ty is so lacking as in good home- ai
grown fruit. A plentiful fruit ol
supply will have notonly a direct r(
linancial value but will uudoubt
edly improve the health of the U
community. li
A careful study of this bulle- ti
tin in connection with the excel- fi
lent demonstration work now be- Ji
ing done in this line by Mr. W. tl
J. Tiller, county demonstration w
agent, should prove of inestim- 01
able value to Chesterfield county ti
in the near future is
SOME TEUTONIC HYPOTHESES h
At last we understand why n
Germany has not whipped Eng- ^
land, France and llussia. It is ^
because that.countrv is not at .1;
war with the United States also. N
should war be declared be ^
tween the United States and s
Gerinauy, say the German naval
orticers, that country would be ^
relieved of the necessity of hav- ir
ing any further regard for the tl
United States and could set up N
her own sea laws and proceed at e:
once to destroy all merchantmen U
approaching the British Isles. w
"If England, then, is left to the U
f.i.~ -1 -4 i! ? * 1 * * 1
mue sue at ursi pianneu ior us,' u
say ithey, "when she is con- Ii
fronted by starvation, she will V
bo compelled to surrender un- n
conditionally, unless she wishes 01
to be starved out. With the fall
of England, however, Russia and
France will also automatically T
collapse like the organs of a body
whose heart has been bored
through. Then also America
will remain isolated and must d
for her part accept any conditions t<
which we impose, because in the
pc.oee treaties with our Euro- 11
poau foes we can, among other hi
things, also demand the handing ct
over of all large battleships and hi
submarines, whereby our lleet w
would become seven times the I
strength of the American navy, ti
Then America would simultane- tc
ously be compelled to surrender g:
and as a matter of course she ol
would not only have to give up ti
all the interned German liners, m
but also pay all the war expendi- at
tures of the Germanic powers
and their allies."

ORTHY AND MERITED TRIBUTES
Hon. Kenneth D McKeller,
?mber of the lower house of
ngress, but recently elected
S. Senator, recently made
s concrete statement as to
esident Wilson's excellent
inagement of affairs in the war
isis through which we ar?ssiug.
"For more than a year and a

i)st difficult circumstances,

id few could or would have
ne as well. For these twc
lings alone he is entitled to tin
ghest respect and deepesl

e. Our foreign policy is pecu

ve. The most of us agree tha
the past 19 months he ha?

lip, is at peace with all tin
orld Whether oue is for liin
against him, one must ad mi
lese facts. Let us continue t<
phold and sustain him."
Savoyard, the brilliant news
Eiper correspondent, pays tbii
igli tribute to President Wilsoi
id it is a just and true estimab
! the President's exalted ane
^sponsible position.
"The office of President of th<
nited States is the biggest pb
tical job in the world. It is te<
mes what it was in Grant's day
fteen times wliat it was ii
ackson's day, and it is a jol
lat demands the inexorable iroi
ill of a Jackson, or a Cleveland
r a Wilson to discharge its du
es. Grant handed his admin
itration over to Hamilton Fisl
nd Koscoe Conkliug. Ha.ye
anded his over to J hn Slier
lan. McKinley handed his ove
) Mark Hanna. But Woodroi
nlson, as emphatically as wa
rover Clevelaud or Andrei
ackson, is President himsell
o other sort of man is lit ft.
io job, and the tribe is might
mall."
While Congress is engaged i
unting for more means of rail

le government, Mr. Young, i

xcellent plan. It is to place

Model Orchards 1
O.te acre model orchards are
being set out in various sections
of the coontv by Demonstuation
Agent Tiller, assisted by Mr. O. ]
F. Rivets, of Clemson. i
These orchards are to be superintended
as to Druning, spraying
etc, by Mr. Tiller for a period
of three years and are to
s *rve as centers of instruction in
this most important branch of;
1 f irming, as well as to demon- j J

line.

says, have 6pent money liberal.

i ig to show for it, when They C

Failure was due to wrong meth
ods of pruning and lack of epray*
iog.
The orchard recently set out
" is on the property of Mr. J. U.
^ King, near town. There is one on
? Mr. Kaynor's place near Page

stratum orchard three years old
- on the property of Mr. L. L
a Parker at Pageland. Those who
- think Chesterfield is not a good
e fruit county shoul I see this one.
3 Good trees can be bought from
t Olemson College as low as three
0 cents each. Apples, pears and
nlums at 12'A cents and cherries
- at 15. Grapes also at a very low
s price.
3 | Mr. Tiller says that one reason
e why fruit trees in the county
1 have Rufi'ered so severely is the
difficulty of getting merchants
e to han-llc the lime-sulphur solui
tion for spraying. Hundreds of
a barrels should be used every
', year heic and the merchant is
a allowed to make 100 per cent on
b his investment for handling tlie
u cnenueais. 1 ne demand is alI,
