The turning Of black and tupelo
gum to account, on So large scale,
is a matter of Importance in connec-
ton with the waning timber supply.
Lumbermen have always considered
it an inferior wood. Except for spec
ial uses, such as mauls, mallets,
boards for wagon and cast beds, and
for other purposes where a wood IS
wanted which will not split, black
gum has been rejected by farmers
and lumbermen. 1t grows over toI-

on the low, marshy lands near the
coast Of the Southern states. It finds
its ideal home in the Dismal Swamps.

SELECT, CORN SEED NOW.
Mr., D. r. Coker Gives Excellent Ad-
vice to Farmers.

In the current issue OF the Harts-
vile Messenger Mr. D. r. Co]ler, than
when! no man in South Carolina IS
mere Interested in hclpin@ The farm
r.s II ,he state, has lAo following:
October is here and farmers will
soon be ready to harvest their corn.
The corn crop of the country is the
best ever made, owing to the favora-
bic seasons and the general adoption
of the Williamson plan. The yield
however, is nothing like as good as
it would be if every farmer had sys-
tematically selected his seed corn
for several years past.
The time to select seed corn Is right
now and the place is in the field
Don't send your hands in. to the fields
to gather your corn until you have
yourself gone through it and selected
enough seed for the next years crop
Select only large low st ears on strong
stockv plants. Select ears from
plants that are properly spaced IN
the rows rather than from plants that
have great distance, for seed should
only be selected from plants that
have grown under normal conditions
After your seed has been selected
from the field 90 over the ears care
fully and pick out few Of the finest
Take only those which are well filled
at butt and tip, which are not effect
ed bv weeviIs and which have long
grains. These few best ears should
be planted in rows TO themselves next
spring and they will undoubtedly pro-
duce a seed that is superior to what
YOU now have. The balance OF the
ears selected from the field should be
used to plant the general crop nex'
wear: but no selection should bs
made next year except form the rows
planted from the few best selected
ears and if any one of these rows
shows a marked advance over tne
others only ears from that row should
be used to plant the seed patch the
following year.
. The tremendous importance Of seec
selection and plant breeding is not
appreciated as it should be by tne
farmers of this section and, we ear
Destlv urge our readers to heed our
advice and begin a system OF selec'
tion this fall. Nothing that we know
of is surer: to pay big dividends or
the time and trouble required.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 4.-The black

and this quality is very desirable IN
large cities where there is much trail

said to resist wear and tear as well

Wood re- eived a bad reputation as
