Some claim that there is too
much waste in the corn stover.
The only waste should be the
pith and hard stalk, and both of
these make excellent bedding,
and is cheaper than getting leav-
es or using any kind of straw.
Some argue that the heavy
corn in the bottoms is too hard to
handle. This can be overcome by
planting a variety of corn that
will bear close planting, have
more ears and of course not 80
much stalk. If the corn crop of
the South is to be shire dded it
must be done by cooperation of
the farmers, and as l have said,
1T will make the small farm er
more feed than he can make in
any other way.
If you once get used to this
manner of handling the corn
crop you will never give it up.

tions and experiences. Mr.. An
derson said that once you get
your hogs to eat artichokes, you
can keep them well on nothing
but artichokes for five months
in the year, from November to
March exclusive, and that three
to five hundred bushels per acre
could be easily grown.
Mr.. g. w. Fairy, of Orange
burg, said, that in his experien ce
feed crops should be so arranged
and rotated that the hog gathers
his own food. Corn, he says, as
food all the year round would
make your meat cost tw elve to
fifteen cents per pound, especial.
ly if you had to go the expense
of grinding, cooking, "toteing"
it to them, etc. Mr.. o. Stribling,
of Pendleton, was called upon to
tell what he knew about feeding
hogs on cotton seed, and stated
that he has had marked success
In feeding seed cooked with tur-
nips which can be grown practi-
cally for every month In the year.
Don't feed on cotton seed alone,
and don't feed the raw seed,
which will poison the hogs very
often. Cook or allow to ferment,
either Of which seems to break
down poisoning elements. Reply.
ing to question of fencing for
hogs, Mr.. StriblIng said that a
rod of hog wire fence, % inches
high, would cost less than a
twelve inch board, 16 feet lon &
with post in the middle.
Mr.. B. Harris, ofPendleton, said
[ that if he could get his pigs far
rowed In March or April, he
could raise them for three cents
per pound on grasses, clovers,
and root crops, provided he killed
them in November or December.

More Cattle Needed.
The Subject InterestinglyDis-
cuSsed at State Farmers
Institute.

Extract from Clemson College
cor. the News and Courier: Hon.
Harvie Jordan, the president of
the Southern Cotton Association,
who was to have addressed the
meeting tonight upon the Agri-
cultural Opportunities of the
Southern Farmer, was delayed in
getting here, and his honr was
filled with the addresses of DR.. O..
A. Cary, State veterinarian and
director of farmers Institutes for
Alabama, who spoke upon the
Cattle Industry in the South. He
spoke of the recognized fact of
the lack of stock in the South,
and said that no system of Agri-
culture could be permanently
maintained without stock, because
the chief need OF lands in the
growing of cotton and other
clean.cuIture crops such as we
raise in the South, is vegetable
matter. Live stock is the key note
to the problem Of decreasing the
cost of production OF cotton and
other clean culture crops, es
pecially y since the great advance
In the price of labor.
We must quit trying to spread
our farms over the earth with
forty acres or more to the horse.
Gan the average farmer raise
more live stock and still produce
cotton to the present extent3 Yes.
by rotation of cotton, corn, peas.
etc. Nowadays a man is wasting
labor and energy trying to grow
cotton, If he can't make at least
bale to the acre, and the legum.
es will help to supply the vegeta-
bic matter to the soil necessary
to make bale to the acre, and
give food for extra cattle, which
will in turn pay for themselves
by enriching the land with ma
nures. Nitrogen, the most costly
element of plant foods supplied

by these legumlnous plants.


Iowa, Wisconsin and other rich
agricultural States owe their
agricultural fertility chiefly to
the very large number of live
stock raised there.
In raising cattle for market get
all the scrub cows you can care
for, and get as much pasture a.
possible In native grasses. An
acre Of good Bermuda grass will
support IS many cattle as any
acre of Kentucky blue grass in
the world. Vetch Is the cheapest
growth for cattle in the South.
Grade up your herd with thor.
oughbred males. Then fee d well
and get your beef on the market.
as soon as possible, by the time
they are two or three years old,
before they have eaten up the
profits, keeping them fat. To
supplement the grasses, a ration
OF corn and cotton seed meal
makes fine food, and will prob
ably, Judging from experiments,
make pound increase in flesh
for less than two cents.

How to Raise Hogs.
Practical Experience Of Farm
ers as Related by them at
State Farmers Institute.

Clemson College special in News
and Courier: After DR.. Mells
address Prof. Harper called upon
Col K. b. Watson, of Ridge Spring,
s. O., who is a veteran farmer of
sixty years experience, and too
we'll known as a progressive far.
! mer and fruit grower to need any
introduction to South Carolina
farmers. Col. Watson's talk was
upon Importance of the South's
raising its own meat, and it was
'ull of "meat" in every sense of
, .he word. He said that it is ma
turally hard to interest farmers
in the Importance of raising hogs
when cotton is worth ten cents a
pound. Notwithstanding that I'VE
can grow more corn per acre
than anywhere else in the coun-
try, yet we spend thousands of
our cotton money for corn, hay
and other provender to feed our
stock. No wonder that I'VE save
no money from our ten cent
cotton.
Here are some general prlnci
pies and pointers in the raising
Of hogs. Hogs ought never to see
Christmas, says Col. Watson
They ought to come after Christ
mas and go before Christm a land
rapidly fattened every day while
alive. Cleanliness is the most i'm
portant principle in hog raising
clean beds, clean water, clean
food, clean fresh grass. Woods
pasture, unless full of acorns and
plenty shade trees, is worth moth
ing much for hogs.
If you want to make more cot.
ton, feed more hogs and stock
and use the manure from them
Protect your hogs from the
weather. Chicken-eating hogs
No, hogs won't eat chickens, if
tnev can get any thing else to eat.
You will have no cholera in hogs
if you observe the principle of
cleanliness. Corn is the great hog
fattener,iand we can easily raise
more corn TO feed more hogs and
cattle, to make the land richer
to gIOw more cotton.
As to how to feed-give as great
variety as possible. If you use
hard corn, it ought to be boiled
or cooked or ground. Supplement
your feed with grasses, keeping
hogs ln.lOts and grass pastures not
too large.
Mr.. Anderson, ofNinety Six, rose
to give his experience on feed
ing hogs on artjchokes, and the

Special to The Herald.
CHICAGO, Aug 13-The Bryan
forces have selected Illinois as the bat
tleground for the so-called Progressive
Democracy in the preliminary fight
ing, which is scheduled to go on be-
fore the 1908 campaign.
The announcement was corroborated
by William Jennings Bryan in Paris.
The first skirmish will come at the
state convention August 81, and 1t will
be another engagement of fight that
dates back to SO with the Bryan men
and Hearst forces arrayed against the
Hopkins Sullivan machine. The lat
ter faction claims solid delegation
from Cook county.
Politicians see war in Sullivan's
old division between the so-called radi-
cal and conservative camps.
Bryan holds Hopkins responsible for
the Palmer and Buckner movement in
1896.
Headquarters for the Chicago branch
of the independence league of Illinois
was opened here today.
