The presence Of a label stating that

whether the trees are really Of the

Of soil available. But the Japs are
a patient. painstaking race. and when
we remember that the, creation Of
these dwarfs is national industry,
we can easily understand that the

long line of employees who follow each

South Carolina Is better prepared to-
day for the raising Of livestock than
ever before in her history. Not only
is there more dry feed and pasturage
in the state, but at last there are mar
kets also-good markets, that put the
South Carolina stock raiser on an
equal footing with the citizen OF any
other locality. Having made many
preparations and taken numerous pre-
liminary steps and after making two
actual experiments last year, the ex-
tension division OF Clemson College is
prepared now to undertake to super
wise the feeding and marketing OF
thousands OF cattle and hogs this win
ter and spring and is making arrange
ments accordingly.
The live stock markets Of the state
are at Greenville, Greenwood, ROCK
Hill, Columbia, Florence and Charles
ton. At each point livestock pens are
under construction. These cities are
concentration and selling points. A
man raising cattle and hoks will ship
them for market to the one Of these
points nearest to him. The railroads
have granted what is known as sell
ing-in-transit rate which will help
greatly in reducing the cost Of trans
portation. In short, the facilities for
marketing are already here.
Buyera COMING Here.
W. W. Long, state agent and direc
tor OF extension at Clemson College,
has made arrangements with number
of prominent stock buyers OF the east
ern markets to attend the sales In
South Carolina. There will be two
sales periods this season, one a mid
winter sale and the other a spring
sale, and the buyers will come to
South Carolina on these two occasions
and 60 from one to another OF the cen
trail market points. This reverses the
older order of things, under which the
South Carolina farmer shipped his cat
tie TO eastern markets and trusted To
his luck for what he could get for
them.
This cooperative marketing plan
has received wide attention outside
the state and a number OF leading
farm publications have noticed 1t faV
orably. 1t is also considered by the
United States department OF agricul
ture as one Of the best methods posi-

| ing farmers 30 to arrange their f.
nances that they can feed some cattle
this fall and winter.
How to Select Feeders.
Farmers who have not yet selected
their feeders should do so at once. In
choosing feeders, look for the animal
with the blocky form. Do not take
rangy, leggy stuff with shallow bodies.
The constitution of the animal has an
important bearing on his value as q
feeder. This is indicated by a short
broad head, broad muzk kle. open nos,
trils, large heart girth and clear eye.
Look especially at the h cad, as the re-
mainder of the animal g enerally CORE
spends to the head. Pick short
broad head.
Another important pd lint is feeding
capacity. Just as dairy COW Is
machine for turning feed into milk,
so is a beef animal a Machine for turn
ing feed into beef. Select feeders with
big feeding capacity.
Quality, which Is important also, Is
indicated by general form, fneness OF
hair, size of bone and horn and thick
ness of skin.
Farmers who have stock OF their
own breeding are advised to keep
them for feeding and not to sell them
off grass this fall. 1t is profitable to
finish cattle. The finished steer is the
one that brings the most money.
Care Of Cattle.
The care of feeding cattle Is most
important. There is much truth IN the
old Flemish proverb that "the eye OF
the master fattens his cattle" Two
men may give their cattle exactly tina
same feed. yet one lot of stun may &c
much better than another, merely De
cause of the difference in care. One
point to remember Is to watch the cat
tie closely for scours. When an animal
scours the chances are that 1t 1s get
ting too much feed or unbalanced feeo
Another point to be observed Is regu
larlty of feeding and watering. Let
ting steer go several hours past Its
feeding time may cause 1t to gorge II
self to such an extent as to develop
serious trouble with It's digestion. In
general, a safe rule is that the cattle
that are best cared for will fatten best

In a small city like this the vice of
rash judgement is altogether too COM
mon. Where people know nearly all
their fellow citizens there are some
who are so ungracious and so un. CHS
tian as to attribute an evil motive
when the actions are prompted by the
best Of motives, and they are rather
disposed to relish rumor that reflects
against a neighbor. Everybody COM
mits indiscretions, either wilfully or
through ignorance or weakness; but
harsh criticism and rash judgements
do not help the offender, but shove him
down. The golden rule should be ap-
piled in such cases.

Der of the petitioners were present with
their attorney, Ralph W. Crockett OF

titled to the inconvenience caused by the
failure of the road to make more stops
than 1t did.

said the road would do all in its power
for its passengers.
The commission reserved its decision.
