THE COTTON RED SPIDER.
Methods Recommended for Control
of This Insect Pest.

By A. F. Conradi, State Entomologist
and Head of Entomologist Division,
Clemson College.
During this dry weather one will
notice reddish areas on leaves of GER
tain plants. 1t is especially noticea-
BILE on violets. The leavs soon turn
brown and become dry and brittle.
Many people call it rust, but if one
stops to examine into the matter
closely he will find little reddish COL
ored mites on the under surfaces of
the leaves. The characteristic web
can also be easily noticed. This is
the red spider. 1t is a dry weather
insect, and if not stopped, it often
does serious damage.
The cotton red spider is one of our
most important cotton pests during
June, July and August. This, so far,
appears to be a favorable year, and
farmers should watch their cotton for
the first appearance of this pest. The
damage occurs in spots in the field.
Poke weed and violet plants should
not be allowed in and about planta-
tions, while underbrush should be
kept down as far as practicable.
AS soon as the first infested plants
are discovered they should be care
fully removed and burned. Blood red
spots will show on the upper surface
of leaves attacked. If this is not
done then the insects will spread from
plant to plant and in a short time
cause the ruinatiOn of large area Of
cotton. This migration has to take
place on foot, as the insects have no
wings. This makes it at once appar-
ent that to a great extent at least it is
everybody's own problem, regardless
of his neighbors.
Whenever the infestation spreads
and the infested spots become larger,
one Of several sprays may be given.
The most satisfactory of these is po-
tassium sulfde, recommended by Mr..
E. A. McGregor, Of the Bureau of
Entomology. This material costs
about 25 cents per pound, and the
spray consists of three pounds of po-
tassium sulfide in 100 gallons of
water. In spraying, the under sides
of the leaves should be thoroughly
covered. This is accomplished by
means Of an elbow of As Degrees A
short one-quarter inch pipe makes a
good extension rod, and in the abb
sence Of an elbow the end of this pipe
may be bent.

RESULTS OF TOP-DRESSING.
Best Times to Apply Nitrate Of SOda
to Corn and Cotton.
By T. E. Keitt, Chemist S. c. Expert
ment Station, Clemson College.

By T. E. Keitt, Chemist, s. G. Expert
ment Station, Clemson College.
Results obtained at the South Caro-
lima Experiment Station show that a
op-dressing with nitrate Of soda gives
good results on cotton, corn and small
grains. The increase is most marked
during a wet year, because this nitro
gen is already in an Immediately
available form, while the rotting Of
the organic sources does not proceed
as rapidly as usual on account of the
excess of moisture in the soil. The
amount to apply per acre varies with
the fertility of the soil and the pre-
vious fertilization, but we would sug-
gest from fifty pounds per acre on
poor land up, according to the fertil-
ity of the soil.
Early applications are coming into
favor. We recommend that the soda
be applied to corn when it is between
knee and waist high, to cotton just as
the shapes begin to form, and to
small grain in March. Care should
be taken not to SOW nitrate of soda
on wet plants because it is likely to
scald them. 1t is best to apply 1t just
after a rain, when the moisture has
dried off of the leaves of the plants,
then cultivate with a mulch forming
implement as soon as the ground is
dry enough to ploW.

HOG CHOLERA AND
HOW TO CONTROL TT.
BY DR.. M. Ray Powers, State Veteri-
marian and Head of Veterinary
Division. Clemson College.

There are two principal methods of
preventing hog cholera; one by the
use of serum, and the other by taking
care to avoid the methods Of spread
ing the disease, which are here out
lined briefly.
Hog cholera is spread by failure
properly to dispose of the carcases Of
dead hogs. Buzzards, dogs and other
animals feeding upon these carcasses
can carry Infection to other premises.
All carcasses should be burned or
buried Immediately, and buzzards
should be destroyed in communities
where they are not protected by law.
In communities where these scaven-
gers are thus protected, the law
should be repealed and the birds de-
stroyed.
Another very common method of
spreading hog cholera is walking
through yards or fields where sick
hogs are kept and carrying the infec-
ton on shoes and clothing to other
premises where healthy hogs are con-
fined. 1t should be remembered that
discharges from hogs infected with
cholera are very infectious, and the
owners should not go or allow any of
their help to go on premises where
there are sick hogs. Neither should
they allow neighbors to go among
their hogs when cholera exists in the
community. Healthy hogs should be
cared for by persons who have not
been where the disease exists, and no
one else should be- allowed near the
healthy drove.
Cholera may be spread by streams
receiving drainage from infected
premises, by buying hogs from prem
ises where the disease exists, or from
public stock yards, or by failure to
isolate newly purchased hogs until
their freedom from disease has been
ascertained. These three matters de-
serve careful attention.
When cholera exists in a neighbor-
hood every hog owner should estab-
lish a strict quarantine on his in
dividua premises. When the disease
exists on adjoining farms hogs should
be protected by injection with anti
hog cholera serum.
The sudden death of one or two
hogs should lead the owner to suspect
cholera. If upon examination Of the
carcasses cholera LESSONS are found.
all healthy hogs should be moved at
once to new lots or pens until they
can be injected with serum.
A farmer finding cholera among his
hogs should at once apply to the
Veterinary Division, Clemson College,
for serum, which is to be had at act
ual cost of manufacture, and should
secure the services of his county farm
demonstrat ton agent who has been
instructed in the use Of serum.
It is the duty Of all citizens to see
that the State law relative to prompt
disposal of carcasses is strictly en-
forced.

GROWING COWPEAS THE SOUTH'S
j. WONDERFUL LEGUMINOUS CROP
By ]. N. Harper, Director, S. c. Ex-
pertinent Station.

By J. N. Harper, Director, S. c. Ex-
pertinent Station.
The cowpaa is the best leguminous
crop for the South. 1t produces hay
fully equal to red clover. 1t resists
drouth and a stand is easily secured.
1t is we'll adapted to nearly every type
of soil in the South, and has few dis
eases and insect pests, and is Won
derful soil improver, as it not only
adds large amounts of nitrogen to
the soil, but also puts the soil in the
best physical condition. This crop
has been grown for a great number OF
years in the South, but it's full i'm
portance to Southern agriculture has
not yet been fully realized.
The seed can either be sown broad
cast or in rows. If wanted for seed,
they should be planted in rows three
feet apart and cultivated. When
sown broadcast no cultivation is re-
quired. However, more seed must be
used. The cowpea should not be
planted in the spring until the ground
is thoroughly warm and all danger
of frost is passed. While the cowpea
plant is we'll adapted to ali kinds OF
soils, it is best suited to a warm,
sandy soil. The hay from cowpeas is
fully equal to that of red clover and
the best varieties for hay purposes
are the Unknown, Wonderful, Iron
Clay, Whippoorwill, Red Ripper, Red
Crowder, Calico and the New Era.
Land containing the fungus which
causes wilt should be sown to the
Iron variety, which resists the root
knot and wilt disease. The best va

FIGHTING THE HOUSE FLY.
Use of Fly Trap, Screens and Spray

The house fly breeds mainly in moist

FREEING THE STATE
OF THE CATTLE TICK.
By DR.. M. Ray Powers, State Veter-
marian and Head of Veterinary
Division, Clemson College.

In July, 1907, the Veterinary Divi-
sion of Clemson College, in cooper,
alton with the u. S. Bureau of Animal
Industry, commenced tick eradication
work in Oconee, Pickens, Greenville
and Anderson Counties. Since that
date this work has been gradually and
Systematically extended until fourteen
counties are now free from ticks and
released from Federal Quarantine.
Systematic work has also been in
progress in six other counties for the
past year, and these should be in con-
dition for release this fall.
Prior to 1914 the expense of tick
eradication work was borne by Glenn
son College and the U. S. Bureau Of
Animal Industry. With the exception
of about $500 (received from citizens
of these counties) no funds were avail

roots, it requires little ammonia in the

When intended for hay, cowpeas
should be planted broadcast with
some other forage crop. German
millet and sorghum are probably the
best crops for this purpose. This sta
ton has obtained as much as seven
tons of we'll cured hay from sorghum
and peas, two and one-half tons from
peas and crab grass, and three and
one-quarter tons from peas and mil
let.
The most valuable part of the pea
plant is the leaves, and the hay
should be cured in such manner
that the largest amount of leaves pos
sible should be retained with the hay
For that reason the pea should not
remain long in the Swath, but as soon
as the leaves are dry sufficiently, the
hay should be raked in windroWs for
day or so, then it should be dried
out in cocks. A splendid way to cure
cowpea hay is to take it from the
WindroW and stack it on pole about
six feet long. driven in the ground
with crossarms nailed horizontally,
the lowest being about eight inches
from the ground.
The practical place of the cowpea
in rotation is after small grain. AS
soon as oats or wheat are cut, the
land should be disked and planted in
peas, sown broadcast, from four to
six pecks per acre. This crop of peas
will shade the ground and improve
the physical condition of the soil, will
add nitrogen to the soil and prepare
the land for the succeeding grain
crop.
AS coWpea hay is a most VALUABLE
food, it should always be cut for hay
However, if the object is to improve
the land the pea vines can be turned
under If the succeeding crop, how
ever, is to be a small grain, it is bet
ter to cut the vines off as the pea
vines will form kind of mulch which
will make the soil very loose and pre-
vent the proper rise of capillary
moisture to the small grain. Small
grain prefers a compact soil rather
than a loose, porous soil.
1t always pays to plant cowpeas in
corn at the last blowing. If an early
maturing variety is planted at this
time, such as the Whippoorwill, New
Era, or Taylor, the seed obtained will
far offset the expense and trouble Of
planting, and the peas growing in the
corn, instead Of hindering the growth
of corn, will increase the yield
slightly, and will put the land in bet
ter condition for the succeeding grain
crop. Small one-horse drills now be-
ing manufactured for the purpose of
drilling cowpeas in corn do the work
better than it can be done by hand
1t always pays to plant a patch of
peas mixed with soy beans as a hog
grazing crop. No machine has yet
been manufactured that will satisfac-
torily pick peas. The thrashing,
however, can be accomplished by
pea huller. which is far less expen-
sive than thrashing out with fail.
In the sandy soils of the Coastal
Plain, the wilt disease and root knot
disease is widely disseminated. No
method has yet been found for COM
batting these diseases. excepting the
rotation of crops and the planting of
wilt resistant cotton and the Iron
cowpea, which resists the wilt and
the root knot. Stored cowpeas should
always be treated with carbon bisul-
phide to keep away weevils.

in-law, Thos. G. Clemson. The answer
is that nowhere does it appear in the
records that Mr.. Calhoun ever wished
or planned the erection Of an indus
trial and technical college on the old
homestead. The complete story of
Mr.. Clemson's part in the founding of
the college is too long to be told here.
A Vast Plant.
The college tract contains over 1900
acres. On the property, there are %
principal public buildings, 70 dwell
ings and 64 minor buildings. The COL
lege has in it's employ 401 teachers,
officers and laborers. It's inventoried
property is $l,327,72S.57. The Off
GERS of the college send out yearly
over $4,000 letters and over $4,000
other pieces Of mail matter, most of
which give agricultural information.
In addition to the parent station,
the college maintains two branch ex-
pertinent stations-one near Summer
Vile and the other at Florence. One
more to be situated in the sand hill
section of the State, just as soon as
funds will permit, will complete a
system representing the principal soil
types of the State.
The enrolment has grown from 446
students in 1898 to 834. Originally
there were but two courses of study
now there are II. In addition to
these regular degree courses, there is
a four weeks course for farmers and
a one-session practical agricultural
course extending from October 1 to
June for men over 1S.
The college maintains 1913 four
year scholarships and 81 one-year
scholarships, the cost of which,
amounting to nearly $4,000, is paid
out of the receipts from the fertilizer
tag tax.
