THE ONE-YEAR COURSE
IN AGRICULTURE

Realizing that many young
farmers throughout the State
could spare neither the time nor
the money to take four-year COL
iege course, Clemson College in
augurated three years ago the one
year course in agriculture. Many
a young farmer after finishing his
home school finds it impossible to
take a four-year college course.
The one-year course is intended to
give the simple scientific princi-
pies upon which good farming
rests. 1t begins October 1st and
ends June 1st.
Its purpose is to take young
man already a farmer and make
of him q better farmer.
The requirements for admission
are that the applicant must be 18
years of age, must have worked
on the farm for at least three
years and have had common
school education through about
the seventh grade.
During the three sessions in
which the course has been given,
III young men have been enrolled.
These men were between 18 and
80 years old.
In order to assist worthy young
men who have accomplished
something along agricultural
lines, there are 81 Scholarships
provided for out of the yearly in
come of the college. These scholar
ships are worth $4,000 per ses-
sion and free tuition and are
awarded on competitive examina-
ton.
One feature of the course is that
1t seeks to make community lead
ers. In addition to agricul-
tural subjects each student is
given instruction in parliamentary
practice and gets experience in or
ganizing and presiding over meet
lngs, institutes, etc.
1t is hoped that in few years
these men will become leaders in
all things looking to the good of
their communities and of the com
monwealth.

SUMMER SHORT COURSES
A Pleasant and Profitable Vaca-
ton.

Clemson College is this summer
offering four weeks course in
agriculture and cotton grading.
The course begins August 9th and
ends September 4th.
The school will be arranged SO
that one can get just what he most
needs. During the first week the
subject of dairying will be taught,
the second week animal husban-
dry, and the third horticulture.
For the last week of the course
agronomy, which includes field
crops, soils, fertilizers, etc, will be
the chief subject.
Any one interested in agricul-
turc will find it to his advantage
to attend this school when the sub
ject he is specially interested in is
being taught.
A special course for teachers
of agriculture has been arranged
and four weeks spent at Clemson
will result in greatly increased
efficiency. -Four weeks instruction
will also be given the winners in
the Boys Corn Club work of the
State.
Clemson College inaugurates
the first summer school in the
South for ministers interested in
rural affairs. A ten-day course
August 9th to August Goth, in
elusive has been specially de-
signed for them.
The entire equipment of the ag-
ricultural department will be at
the disposal of those taking the
four weeks courses. The farm,
dairy, dairy barn and all the lab
oratorics will be open for use in
instruction.
Popular lectures will be given
each evening by some member of
the faculty or other lecturer prom
inent in State or national affairs.
The college library will be open
during the whole four weeks with
it's 10000 books and many popu-
lar magazines.
Persons wishing to spend va
cation under the direction of a
competent faculty, with the ad-
vantages of well equipped labora-
tories, will find Clemson College
an ideal place for summer.

The enrolment has grown from

The enrolment has grown from
446 students in 1893 to 834. Orig
inally there were but two courses
of study-now there are 13. In
addition to these regular degree
courses, there is a four weeks
course for farmers and a one-ses-
sion practical agricultural course
extending from October / to June
| for men over 18.
Public Service.
But the trustees of Clemson
College have not only organized
an efficient system of fertilizer in
spection and analysis, by which
the farmer gets value received
from the tax he pays, and built
and maintained a great agricul-
tural and mechanical college, but
they have gone a step farther than
is required by their compact with
the people and have sought to re-
turn to those who pay the tax in
the shape of direct service, all that
could be spared over and above
the cost of operation and build
ing. The public service has grown
as the fertilizer tax has grown,
now reaching an annual total of
over 100000.
Clemson College, with it's plant
we'll developed, its patronage as
sured and ovcrflowing, its lines of
public service popular and eff
cient, has behind it creditable
record of achievement. and before
it future bright with the prom
ise of usefulness to South Caro-
lima.

BUTTERMILK THAT is
BETTER AND CHEAPER

All bacteria do not make trouble
and doctors bills. Some of them
make buttcrmilk and buttermill
is friend to health. 1t is a cheap
beverage and a good one, and is
an excellent food besides. It's nu-
tritive value is high, two quarts
of buttermilk being equal to about
one pound of beef steak. 1t has
also good medicinal effect.
Good buttermill1 can be made
artificially as follows: Add to
every gallon of skim milk about
half pint Of whole milk and
enough starter" or clabber to cur
die the mixture in six or seven
hours at ordinary living-room
temperatures. When the mixture
is thoroughly curdled put it in a
churn and chum it for half an
hour. After churning, cool the
mixture down to well water tenn
perature to prevent it's getting too
sour. After cooling, strain through
cheese cloth to remove any Jumps
or curd.
This simple process will give
a good, refreshing, tasteful bev-
erage that is both enjoyable and
healthful.

THE COTTON RED SPIDER.

During dry weather one will
notice reddish areas on leaves of
certain plants. It is especially
noticeable on violets. The leaves
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 colored mites
on the under surfaces of the
leaves. The characteristic web
can also be easily noticed. This is
the red spider. 1t is 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 fav-
orable year, and farmers should
watch their cotton for the first APP
pearance of this pest. The dam
age occurs in spots in the field.
Poke weed and violet plants
should not be allowed in and
about plantations, while under
brush should be kept down as far
as practicable.
AS soon as the first infested
plants are discovered they should
be carefully 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 short time cause the ruin
alton of large area of cotton.
This migration has to take place
on foot, as the insects have no
wings. This makes it at once ap-
parent that to q great extent at
least it is everybody's own prob
lem, regardless of his ncighbors.
Whenever the infestation
spreads and the infested spots
become larger, one of several
sprays may be given.

"ReinfOrcing" Manure.

Manure is the best Of all crop
producers, but manure needs ere
inforcements" to bring out its
greatest value and to supply mat
ter in which it is deficient. Be-
sides, the farms are few and far
between that produce enough
manure to fertiliZe all the land,
even by the most careful live stock
farming and by adding brought
feeds to the crops grown and re-
turning all manure to the soil.
Manure is especially deficient in
phosphoric acid and where crop
is fertilized entirely with manure
the addition of acid phosphate
will increase the yield. On sandy
lands, manure will not contain
enough potash to produce the best
crops.

ClemsOn's Graduates.

The one thousand men who
have been graduated from Glenn
son College are holding lucrative
and responsible positions in thir-
ty-three States and the District of
Columbia, in Cuba, Canal Zone,
the Hawaiias, Philippine Islands,
Germany and British East Al
rica. Strong evidence of the quail
ifications of it's agricultural grad
uates is found in the fact that
numbers of them have been given
employment by the United States
Department of Agriculture, while
Clemson engineering men are to
be found in the largest electrical
corporations in America.

RESULTS OF TOP-DREssING
Best Times to Apply Nitrate of
Soda to Corn and Cotton.

Results obtained at the South
Carolina Experiment Station
show that top-dressing with nj
trate of soda gives good results on
cotton, corn and small grains. The
Increase is most marked during a
wet year, because this nitrogen is
already in an Immediately avail
able form, while the rotting of
the organic sources does not pro
cced as rapidly as usual on ac-
count of the excess of moisture in
the soil. The amount to apply per
acre varies with the fertility of
the soil and the previous fertiliza-
ton, but we would suggest from
90 pounds per acre on poor land
up, according to the fertility of
the soil.
Early applications are coming
into favor. We recommend that
the soda be applied to corn when
1t 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 it lust
after a rain, when the moisture
has dried off the leaves of the
plants, then cultivate with a
mulch forming implement as soon
as the ground is dry enough to
plow.

TICK ERADICATION.

Great progress was made last
year in tick eradication. A larger
area approximately 1900 square
miles) was released from State
and Federal quarantine than in
any one year since the work was
organized along systematic lines.
Still greater progress is antici-
pated as result of this years
work. This is made possible by
the close cooperation Of the State,
through Clemson Agricultural
College, and the Bureau of Ami
NAL Industry, United States De-
partment of Agriculture, in their
systematic manner in conducting
the work, on the one hand, and
the hearty cooperation of the live
stock owners and progressive citi-
zens of the State on the other.
This work is supervised by DR..
W. *. Lewis, Inspector in charge,
Columbia, S. @. He and his able
corps of assistants are pushing the
work with all enegry and speed
commensurate with the appropri-
ations made by the State and Fed
eral governments, that the entire
State may be released from quar-
antine as soon as possible. Twen-
ty-one counties have been re-
leased; the work is in progress,
along systematic lines, in ten other
counties and will be conducted
along preliminary lines in the re-
naming thirteen counties this
year.
In the free areas a great interest
is being taken in live stock i'm
provement; pure bred sires are be-
ing imported to improve the pres
ent strains; more cattle are being
fed during the winter months, and
with the very satisfactory method
of marketing that is being con-
Quoted by the South Carolina ex-
tension department in cooperation
with the department of agricul-
ture in Washington, the live stock
industry in these sections is we'll
on to the road of success. In other
words, the eradication of the cat
tie tick is making profitable live
stock industry possible.
The benefits to be derived from
this work are of such far-reach-
ing nature that it bchooves every
public spirited citizen to lend his
moral and active support to those
engaged in conducting it, that our
grand old State may forge to the
front in live stock raising, po-
sition that she is especially adapt
led for and one that she Justly de-
serves.

BAGGING GRAPES.

Grapes can be grown in almost
any section Of South Carolina.
After the grapes have set, thew
should be sprayed with Bordeaux
mixture (see circular No. 25 is.
sued by Clemson Collegc), and
then be baggcd to protect them
from disease, birds and bees. Bag
ging also prolongs the ripening
season and after ripening the
grapes will hang on the vines for
q longer time without spelling
Strong Manila paper bags (sizes
No. 2 and No. 81 should be used
SO as to resist the weather and the
sharp beaks of birds.
The bag should be slipped over
the bunch and pinned or wired
closely about the stem. A pin hole
in the bottom of the bag will
drain off the rain water.
An inexperienced hand can put
on 500 bags day, and an cxpc-
rienced worker 1000. 1t will pay
you to bag your grapes.
