CHESTERFIELD MAKES * PROGRESS Dfcraraified Farming and Soil Improvam?nt Noticeable ft' * Chesterfield, May 29.?That Chesterfield is not being left behind the procession of counties in the march of farm progress but is rather among ;? ' the leadert is clear from the April report of County Agent W. J. Tiller, which shows that the county i3 making good strides in dairying, in fruit and truck crops, in forage crops and pastures for more and better livestock, and best of all in building up the soil for better production. The nature and extent of Chesterfield's progres may be judged by the extracts given below from the county agent's report. Dairying?During the month with the assistance of Mr. C. G. Cushmnn, Dairy Specialist and Mr. W. E. Wintermyer, Bull Association Specialist L! i 11 _ n irum rvasnington omce, ana mr. r>. J. Jeffords, Pasture and Forage Crop Specialist, we did some very effective work in the interest of dairying. The prospects are very bright for tin forming of at least one bull association in the county. These meetings were held in the county and considerable interestest was created. I have had numerous calls for assistance in orchard work, both home and contmercial orchardp. Durinj: the first of the month I advised 523 owners of home orchards as to applying the first summer spray for worms, and held three demonstrations on this work. The young commercial orchards are very encouraging; with the favorable weather the young trees have done well. The cultivation of these orchards has been done very satisfactorily. The truck crops, such as melons, beans, cabbage, and Irish potatoes, have been hard hit by the cold and wet weather The growers around Cheraw and McBee are arranging for marketing organization for the purpose of marketing these crops. Pasture and Forage Crops?The interest in pasture work throughout the county is very encouraging. 1 ant receiving calls daily for seed of different kinds and methods of seeding. I have started over fiftv Her muda pastures this spring. The temporary pasture work is going good and numerous crops are being planted for pasture purposes. The forage crops such as oats and vetch are very promising and the average is very good. This crop is being planted in practically every section of the county and has proved to be very satisfactory. The grain crop genei*ally is very good and a larger acreage than ever. Soil Building?The winter cover ! crop of rye and vetch has been! handled very successfully and the farto>_mers who are having their first experience are highly pleased; and from the results of last year's crops of velvet beans where they were used for soiling as well as for winter pastuie, there is every indication of a larger acreage this year than ever. There has been bought through the county! agent's ofiice in co-operative ship- j ments over one thousand bushels of velvet beans and soy beans, and still I Wee Somethii Spec Watch Oi It is our intent every week, beginr these advertisemeni n n Beginning aa of this week we are which includes Cofl Kettles and other us first-class goods at ^ D GREAT] Farme &.

Dr. Meigs ias had charge of the Government work on determining the possibility of supplementing home-grown and purchased dairy rations with minerals so vital in maintenance of the cow's health and the production of milk. As most of our soils are deficient in lime, this is an important matter with our dairymen. 3. Mr. E. G. Cherbonnier, St. Louis, Mo., on "Practical Lessons in Feeding the Dairy Cow for Economical Production." He has had experience with feed problems all over the United States and will give valuable information on what, when and how much to feed.

A social feature will be the picnic dinner with an abundance of good [ things to eat, and while dairymen and farmers from all parts of the State arc urged and expected to attend, the farmers of the immediate section of the State are especially invited to attend and bring basket dinners.
