Some Experiences With Hairy
Vetch.

''some experiences with hairy
vetch" was the subject of paper
read uy P. N. Lott, demonstration
agent for Edgefeld county, at the
recent meeting of the agents at
Clemson college.
His paper follows:

There are many things in life
that astonish the thinking man. The
greatest of all in the industrial
world, is that agriculture, the moth
er of all the sciences, should be
treated in such slipshod way, be-
ginning as it did, and continuing
through the ages. The great Gre
ator commanded Adam TO till the
soil. Cain was a farmer, and we
suspect sorry one; for, what he
brought to the Lord must have been
very inferior stuff, else the Lord, in
leve and justice to man would not
have rebrKeG him. This one state
nent in holy writ leads to conclude
shat butchery and starvation of the
seil are sin, for again we read IN
Lew, 95th chapter, that God, from
Sinai, commanded Moses to estab-
sish a law that land should have a
rest every seven years and that
nothing must be taken from it dur
ing that year.
One of the first of the many
things to be considered is soil build
ing. Our record can not be main
tained, and advancement attained
unless we have foundation. All,
therefore, depends upon the proper
care of the soil. Time has struck
for abandonment of soil robbery. l
believe God knew what he was do.
ing when he made the many hun
dred leguminous plants, and that
they were for a special purpose,
namely, to increase the fe 'ity of
the earth.
The thinking man always does
things that are the most practicable
and remunerative, hence our plant
nag the legumes are of the greatest
utility. Peas and beans for sum-
mer. and vetches and clovers for
winter. We all know the value of
cow peas and the bean family. But
as my subject is winter cover crops
and hairy vetch, l shall proceed to
give my experience along that line.
I consider hairy vetch the greatest
annual leguminous plant that we
can SOW, either by itself or with
grain. have tested vetch stubble
with stable manure both on cotton
and corn. The cotton yield in seed
cotton was about 800 pounds pei
acre more, aud corn about, seven
Bushels more. This was one year
test. My opinien g chat l syesIa

sshas 2e pounds of s8elehl yeed5;soWn
to the acre on well inouufated soil
ls worth more than ten two-horse
loads of well trodden stsble manure.
] am not prepared to state the re-
suits of turning while green, 25
pounds of vetch seed and a bushel
of rye or wheat per acre, but / am
confident that it is greater than
stubble, because of the fact that we
get a great quantity of green hu
mus which is very important fac
tor in soil fertility. l prefer vetch
and wheat cut for forage. Two to
three and one-half tons of dry hay
80 the acre can be made and gotten
cat of the land in time for either
corn or cotton. If sown the middle
of September it can be cut April 20
or May l. For years my best crops
of cotton and corn have been made
ON vetch stubble-plots tina, pro-
duce $50 worth of hay per acre and
from 1900 to 2,40O pounds seed
cotton and so to 60 bushels of corn.
1t is often inconvenient to sow vetch
In all your growing cotton and
wherever it cannot be done / would
suggest sowing bushel Of rye for
green humus. This growing win
aer crop does DOT only hold the soil,
but catches the escaping nitrogen
sous gases, and when plowed under
returns about $40 per acre 10 the
fertility of the soil. Wherever the
winter cover crops are left off the
Hand deteriorates not less than So
and possibly IS per acre. AS to
how ! arrived at the above conclu-
sion, the winter covered plot with
the same amount of fertilizers pro-
auced between $40 and $l2 more.
Where it was not put on | had to
ase So to IS more guano to get the
came crop that did the year before.
Now, in conclusion, / would state
4hat if the farmer lived closer to
nature, knew more of nature, adopt
ed natures plan for building and
maintaining soil fertility and de-
pended less on commercial fe1tiliz
era, we would not only have more
money but be happier. If every
farmer in South Carolina would
dress his farm in a robe of green
for winter comfort and food for
aummer crops, we would not only
have the most progressive, but the
most beautiful State in the Union.
The State.

HERE are four pieces OF neckwear,
handsome enough to be valued posses
sions in any woman's stock of dress
accessories. Yet the materials of
which they are made cost next to
nothing. Fifty cents or less Is about
the amount which will buy thread and
braid for the handmade pieces. 1t
will certainly buy enough OF the all
over shadow lace to make the at
tractive collar and jabot, and cover
the expense OF the tiny buttons of
black satin used as finishing touch
on the pretty collar at the right of the
picture.
Hand work, tastefully and well
done, means elegance in dress aces
series. The crocheted collar is made
Of three separate pieces Joined to-
gether. They are an Irish lace pat
tern and not at all difficult to make.
There is an insertion an inch and
half or little less In width and from
IL to Is inches long, depending upon
the size of the neck to be fitted. Two
wider strips of the crochet are made,
each half as long as the insertion less
one or one and fourth inches. These
pieces are finished with a scallop
about the outside edges.
When all the pieces have been Gro
cheted they are sewed together as
shown in the picture. Baby velvet
ribbon in sapphire blue, or any pre-
ferred color is run through the edges
OF the insertion. This is necessary to
keep the collar from stretching at the
top. A small piece of wider velvet
ribbon In the small color is tackled in
at the front. Finally a tiny bow
made Of the crocheted insertion is
sewed to the velvet strip.
This collar should be stayed with
supports at the back and sides. It
will fit perfectly, as the lace will
stretch and spread at the bottom and
adjust itself to the neck.
The pretty fichu Is made of renais-
sance braid and floss, with three small
lace medallions inserted: one at the

DRY SCALE COVERED HEAD

2760 Tamm Ave, st. Louis, Mo-
my little daughters head began with
a dry harsh scale covering 1t. First 1t
got a white scale over the top and
then 1t got dirty brown scab with
pus under 1t. Her hair came out in
less than a week and her head itched
and bled. She had no rest. had her
wear a scarf all the time, 1t looked 30
badly. She was so sore and had such
big brown scabs on her head that the
teacher would not let her attend
school.
1--WE took and had her treated for
three months with no relief. She kept
getting worse until l tried Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. / used the Cuti-
cura Soap every third day and the
Cuticura Ointment at night. In three
weeks her head was well OF sores. Two
cakes of Cuticura Soap and one box
OF Cuticura Ointment completely cured
her." (Signed) Mrs. Walter Rogers,

HENPECK HAS LITTLE JOKE
For Once He Turned the Tables on
His Wife, and Surely Had
Right to Laugh.

Henpeck was in q state OF delight
all the evening; it was so evident
that at last we asked whether some
one had left him a fortune.
NO. but It is the joke OF the
age. l have been laughing all day.
This morning when l went into the
dining room at breakfast time there
was no meal visible. ] went into my
wife's room and there she was still
asleep. So unlike Bertha, you know.
| called her: Say, Bertha, It's eight
o'clock; I want my breakfast Not a
movement. l shouted; shook the bed;
brought in the frying pan and beat
the reveille upon 1t. All to no pur-
pose. What was / to do? Time was
passing and l didn't feel inclined to
go to work hungry. Get my own
breakfast? Not on your life. What
am l married for? Then a bright
thought struck me. ] took off my
shoes, crept as quietly as ! could along
the passage; a board creaked; in a
moment Bertha was awake.

middle of the back and one in each
tab at the front. A little study of the
picture will show how effectively the
fine braid has been managed so as
to make a snowy neckpiece without
spending a great deal Of time. Such
an accessory worn with a tailored suit
converts it into quite dressy affair,
especially II pretty hat is worn at
the same time.
Lace fichus are very smart and fash
ionable, as also are those OF net, fine
embroidery, batiste and machine-made
laces.
The next collar Ia of all-linen,
machine-made Cluny. 1t is made in
two sections set together with mar
row Cluny insertion. Those who know
how to make the lace will find this an
easy copy to follow. But in this par
ticular case the lace made by me-
chanical work is so nearly like hand
work that few can distinguish the diff
ference. The machine-made product
sells for q remarkably low price. Wom-
en- who are clever at designing use
remnants of Cluny edgings combined
with small motifs and narrow inser-
tons to make up lovely Goat SETS"
that is, collar and cuffs.
A piece Of striped shadow laco,
which may be bought from IA to
something over 20 inches wide. is uti-
lied for the collar and jabot. The
lace Is cut in strips and does not ravel
along the edges. A strip the required
length of the collar Is curved along it's
upper edge to fit the neck and then
hemmed all around and stayed with
wire supports at the back and sides.
A small triangular piece Is set on at
the middle front. This supports the
full ruffie made from two strips of
lace hemmed at the ends and with
edges joined below the triangle. A
dozen little buttons, satin-covered, or
little rhine-stones or pearl buttons,
make an elegant finish for this piece.
Three-quarters or even less of allover
lace will make two of these neckpieces.

pronounced "rib," or ridge than the
English fabric, and less luster. Al
though the French achieve exquisite
white they are not as successful as
English manufacturers in the dying
of black in this particular fabric.
One OF the smart new models for
fall is pictured here made of black
frame. The facing of white is espe-
cially admirable on this particular
shape, as it defines the graceful curve
of the left brim. White next the face
is becoming to everyone, and the
combination of black and white Grape,
when managed by a competent design
er, is brilliant and elegant above al
most every other.
Nearly all trimmings for Grape hats
are made OF Grape. They must always
be we'll made and used with modera-
ton. Mourning millinery, to be taste
full, must depend upon its display of
careful workmanship rather than it's
abundance Of trimming. Fortunately
there is no fabric which gives the
maker better opportunity to show
her skill than Grape.
The prevailing styles in shapes are
well adapted to this character of mil
linery. The small, close-fitting bon
net-like hats and the narrow-brimmed,
soft-crowned models, as yell as that
increasing number classed as Rem
brandt" hats, give the designer an un-
limited choice. They insure a becom-
ing hat for every one who will take
time to make the proper choice.
The hat shown in the picture is
very generally becoming Except for
the facing the frame is covered with

BIG FAIR FOR GEORGIA

have the largest number of successful
fairs of any state in the cotton belt
this fall The farmers of Georgia are
rapidly developing into modern agri-

remarkable advances compared to the
records of a decade ago. For a little
more than that length of time | have

hundreds of instances in every section

hinged upon the work of some man, or

The Georgia State Fair, to be held
at Macon October 81 to 81, is always
regarded by Georgians and the peopl-
at large, as being one of the greatest
fairs in the South, and there is little
doubt that this is correct, for the Geor

this fair into the right channels, and
