which the original experiments were
made. 1t is desirable. therefore, TO
maintain stations at different To-
cations upon those several Grades of
land which are known to lie the i'm
portant types Of the region. This has
been done in North Carolina. Sub
stations have been established
throughout the State on the more i'm
portant soils. as determined by the
federal soil surveys.
Then, too, it is important TO the
welfare Of Clemson itself that the in
stitution should be kept close to the
people, and nothing can so assure
this as the maintenance Of branches
in the various sections Of the COM
monwealth.-Colu Record.

Of in. in. 16 feet lumber,
bolt them together at one
end. sharpen the other ends
so that when folded the points
will come together exactly. Mark a
straight line from the point to the
center Of the bolt, and on this line,
about three feet from the points,
pieces. Open out the sides until the
points are 6 feet in. apart. Bolt the
cross arm on through the holes which
have been made, and fasten the BIO ce
to the top.
In order to mark the a." drive
two pegs in the ground 16' in. apart,
on which place the legs of the "A" !"
swing the plumb from the bolt at the
top; when it comes to rest, mark the
place were the string crosses the
arms. Change the legs Of the "A' on
the pegs, turning end for end, allow
the plumb to come to rest. marking
the place on arm where Il crosses.
Find the halfway point between these
two marks and mark it distinctly
zero.
Select two pegs 6 feet in. apart,
as nearly on a level as possible and
place the "a" on them, driving one
down if necessary until the plumb
bob string falls on the zero mark.
Now elevate one end Of the "a two
inches and mark where string crosses
arm and continue to elevate. two inch
es at a time, marking the place from
the zero. I, ., 3, etc. Then begin at
the other side and mark it in like
manner.
To use the "A" in terracing, select
points on the ground where the plumb
line crosses the zero. stepping from
one 10 another.
The fall in inches between any two
places may be obtained by stepping
off the distance between them, and
keeping a record Of the numbers
where the line crosses the arm, add
them ard multiply by two. this will
give you the difference in inches, pro-
vided, the slope has all been in the
same direction.
The rise or fall of a ditch or road
is expressed directly in per cent by
the marks on the arm.
The work cannot be done as rapid
ly as an experienced instrument man
can do It, using a level, but it has
the advantage that il takes only one
man to operate it, and that one Of
only ordinary intelligence.
The plumb bob will come TO rest
more quickly if allowed to swing in
bucket of oil or water. placed on the
ground just underneath it.

a Clemson experimental station is to
be established shortly at Florence.
1t would be desirable to have such a
station in each Of the four or five
chief natural divisions Of the State.
A central station can do excellent
work for agriculture, in discovering
improved methods Of fertilization
and cultivation, plant breeding, the
control Of pests and the like. But a
State. even n State SO small in area
as South Carolina, embraces many
differena types Of soil and full ad-

Seed corn which has been stored
through the wilmer under ordinary
conditions in South Carolina.
is often thought to need no testing be-
fore planting. But the high price of
land and the additional expense of
replanting the field demand that the
progressive farmer know more about
the quality of seed that he is to
plant.
The proper time to make the ger
minating test is about three weeks
before planting, so that if any bad
ears are found in the lot and dis
carded. the ears which are to take
their place may also be tested before
the seeds are placed in the soil.
A convenient sized testing box for
the average farmer is one that is "a
inches by "a inches, and about to
s inches deep. This box can be made
from six inch plank or a soap or
starch box sawed down to the desired
depth can ba used. This box should
nave q layer of ~ least 1vo inches of
wet sawdust packed tightly over the
bottom IL viii be found convenient
to wet the sawdust in an old sack by
letting the sack containing the saw
dusO soak in warm water for 20 to
80 minutes so that the sawdust may
have an equal moisture content
throughout.
Having completed the box, take
piece Of white cloth, which should be
q little larger than the box, and mark
off one hundred squares 2x2 inches.
Number each Of these consecutively
from l To 100, then dip this cloth in
to bucket Of water and stretch it
evenly over the sawdust.
When the tester is complete take
the ears Of corn to be tested ana
number each ear Then take six ker-
nels from each ear two from opposite
sides Of the butt. two from opposite
sides Of the middle. and two from op-
Dosite sides of the tip. See that no
two kernels are taken from the
same row. and if the butt and tip ker~
nels are taken one inch from the
end Of the ear. this will be an
average sample. Having taken the
kernels from the ear. place them In
the square which is numbered to
correspond to the number Of the ear.
Allow no two Of them to touch, place
them with the heart side up, and all
Of the tips pointing i'm the same dl-
r,ction. When grains from all the
ears have been placed in the squares
which correspond To the number of
.~c ear from which they were taken,
! place another piece Of wet cloth on
top Of them and cover this with to
> inches Of wet sawdust. Then place
the box i'm some place where IT
will remain warm. At the end of four
davs dampen the sawdust again by
sprinkIing some warm water over It.
At the end Of week the tester
should be examined by carefully re-
moving the sawdust and top cloth.
! rho numbers Of all SQUARES which do
not show big healthy sprouts should
hc ascertained. and the ears which
have the corresponding numbers
should not be planted.
