FARMERS SHOULD SAVE CORN
COMMISSIONER WATSON URGES
HOLDING FOR HIGHER PRICES
LATER ON.
Predicts Shortage i'm This State
Thinks Federal Estimate is Too
Large-COnditiOns Throughout the
Country.

Columbia, Nov. 3.-Predicting an
unprecedented price for corn next
year and challenging the federal GEN.
sus figures for the South Carolina crop,
Commissioner Watson of South Caro-
lima yesterday issued a statement to
the farmers of the State urging that
they conserve this years corn crop.
The statement follows:
Though the federal governments
preliminary estimate of tn corn crop
in South Carolina this year indicates
only about the same size crop as
that of last year there can be no
question that South Carolina has
raised during 1913 the largest and
best crop of corn in her history and
in my opinion the estimate referred
to is almost farcical. This / say
with an intimate knowledge gained
by personal observation of conditions
that have prevailed in every nook and
corner of the State this year.
Whether or not, however, we have
raised a bumper crop it is of supreme
importance that the farmers in South
Carolina be extremely careful to take
care of all the corn that they have
raised this year; that they carefully
restrain from wasteful use; and that
product.
There is a big shortage in corn
throughout the United States, Euro.
pean Russia, Spain, Italy, Hungary
proper, Japan, Bulgaria, Switzerland
and Tunis, and the preliminary esti-
mate of the worlds crop in Septem-
ber 25 calls for a total production Of
only 2,766,OOO,OOO which is 22.4 per
cent less than was raised in these
countries last year.
1T is manifest, therefore, that a
State like this which is still buying
corn from the West no matter what
its quality, will be in position this
year to realize excellent profits from
State interchange of corn.
I'm a letter to me from one OF
the largest houses inside the State
doing large business in corn the
manager Of the company says:
In our opinion corn will retail
from S1.25 to $3.50 per bushel the
coming summer, and We believe il
the matter Of high prices could be-
brought to bear on them, while we
have lot of forage and other diff
ferent feed stuffs, that they could take
care Of the corn until the summer
months when corn is always higher
than any other time in the year, and
another thing that we think would
hold the price OF corn down is the
planting Of large Oat crop which
would curtail the use of corn.'
THE statement made by the writer
of this letter 1 do not think is exag..
gerated and it is for that reason that
/ wish to urge every possessor Of corn
in the State to conserve the corn, de-
vote his attention Immediately to tho
planting of all grain and forage crops
that he possibly can, and in that way
get the full measure Of profit on the
corn that he has raised in the year
1913. This years corn crop is re-
markably free from moisture and is
in excellent condition to be saved
with the least possible trouble"

SWEET CLOVER AS FORAGE
by PAUL BIRD, iowa state College

by PAUL BIRD. IOWA State College.
classed as a noXious weed by a GER
tain experiment station, yet an Iowa
farmer, Frank Coverda1e of Delmar,
grows it for both hay and seed and
says he prefers it to red clover. He
says, Sweet clover hay is super
Tor hay. When properly gotten up it
is sweeter and better relished by the
stock than any other hay | have ever
fed"
Mr.. Coverdale obtains the best re-
suits by using twenty pounds of seed
per acre on freshly plowed and disced
sod land. He usually seeds about
May goth, the time varying somewhat
with the season. The clover makes
a good growth the first year and may
be cut for hay late in the season. The
second year two cuttings for hay
may be made or one for hay and one
for seed
Mr.. Coverdale has found by expert
ence tina. the best time to cut sweet
clover is lust before it blooms. The
stubble must be left at least ten
inches high at this stage or there is
danger of killing out. The hay, after
willing, is placed in cocks and cured
in the cock. BY this method the least
loss of leaves occurs and stems and
leaves retain much of their green
color.
The contention has been made that
sweet clover is difficult to eradicate.
1t is, however, biennial and if fol-
lowed by a cultivated crop, such as
corn, will be prevented from reseed-
ing itself. The experience of Mr..
Coverdale, where dying out followed
too close moving, certainly indicates
that the plant is not very hard to
eradicate at WILL
One of the most valuable character
stics of sweet clover is its soil I'M
proving qualities. Its roots penetrate
the hardest soils, break up the lower
layers, improve drainage and ON de-
cay leaves large quantities of humus
in the soil.
Most plants, especially legumes
used for soil Improvement are hard
to start in poor soils. Sweet clover
is an exception and will thrive and
do we'll where other legumes will not
grow with any reasonable amount OF
success.
AS a green manure, analyses show
that sweet clover ranks between al
falfa and red clover in nitrogen con-
tent, while the amount of green ma
teEial available for turning under is
enormous when compared with other
crops used for the purpose.
Sweet clover has been used on the
alkali lands of the west. 1t stands
much more alkali than ordinary crops
and removes much of it IN the stems
and leaves, when cut and taken off
the land
A biennial, sweet clover Ats we'll in
to the ordinary rotation of the corn
belt. Since a stand is obtained much
more readily than of red clover, it M
doubt will prove valuable to many
Iowa farmers.
