selves to Battle With Weeds
and Insect Pests.

AS a general thing the berry fields
after the fruiting season is over are
left to themselves to battle with the
insects and the weeds. Do not allow
this. Prune, cultivate and keep off
the insects.

feet high, do not delay; cut them of
at once. The growth Of the laterals
Will not be 80 heavy or so regular as
when topped while they are young and
very tender; nor will the bushes be
so well formed. Cut out all the canes
that bore fruit the past season and
thin the new canes to stand three in
a hill.
Keep down all grass and weeds as
they harbor many insects which prey
on the bushes and fruit and draw from
the soil moisture and fertility that
should be stored up in the plants for
next seasons growth.
II cultivated longer than August

the tips not ripening and the loss by
winter killing will be greater than IL
cultivation is stopped early; which
causes a check to the growth OF the
plant and allows a more thorough
ripening of the tips of the canes.
Just after the last cultivation or
about the time of the first freezing
weather, a light mulch should be put
around the hills. Then in the spring
as soon as thorough cultivation has
been given them, put on a heavy
mulch; IL the rows are about FIVE feet

rows and the hills
The mulch may be rotten straw, for

There was a novel excursion out OF
Anderson yesterday. The textile night

party and the trip was made in auto
mobiles.
Every member OF the party seemed
to enjoy the outing although the roads
were very dusty, and there had not
been enough rain this spring to
smooth out some Of the winter ruts.
everything was taken in a fine spirit,
even when the Brissey Lumber Com,
pany's biggest truck in the State"
loaded with IL passengers, broke
through the bridge over Six and
Twenty and there was quite good
natured scramble for terra firma. The
truck was driven by that expert chauf-
fer, Darby, who handled the situation
beautifully and got his party back in
the city last night by 8 O'Clock.
The party, most OF them, got to
Clemson In time to witness the base
ball game, which was q listless exhi.
bitiop. as Auburn. got four-run lead
by the second inning and Clemson
seemed unable TO overcome It. Webb
from Anderson played we'll, as usual
and was responsible for tks two runs
that Clemson got, the final score be-
in to 2. Clemson had three chances
to break up the game with men on
bases, but Clarksthe seasoned pitcher
from Auburn pulled out of the holes.
He will go with the New Orleans pro-
fessional club.
The Anderson visitors were shown
over the college and inspected the
te:cile plant. under the direction OF
Prof. Doggett head of the department.
Afterwards they were permitted to
enjoy the formation nf the cadet re4f-
ment for retreat and the lowering of

The trip made profound impress
sion upon some of the younger men
Of the party and they stated that IL

tdent Riggs made a very happy talk
I'm extending welcome to the visitors
and declared that the college will be
glad to have visitors from the mills
OF Anderson at any time and that ne
would be delighted for some of the
men who are now getting a taste OF
learning in the night schools OF be-
come members Of the student body at
the college.
Before leaving, the party called up
on b. Frank Mauldin to make q few
remarks on behalf of Anderson. This
he did IN n most effective manner
He said that in the party of visitors
were about score Of young men
whom he teaches at Sunday school
and he wishes to vouch for them as
Delng splendtd young fellows. He is
chairman OF the educational commit
