South Carolina is Octtcr prepared to
day for the raising OF livestock than
ever before in her history. Not only
is there moro 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 tho citizen Cf 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 Grccnvillo, 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 a sell
ing-n-transit rate which will help
greatly in reducing the cost of trans.
portation. In short, the facilities for
marketing are already here.
Buyers 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 spring
sale, and the buyers will come to
South Carolina on these two occasions
and go 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 tc
his luck for what he could get fol
them
This cooperative marketing plan
has received wide attention outside
the state and 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 possi
BILE OF developing the livestock industr,
OF the South.
Illustrated posters were sent from
Clemson College late in July urging
farmers to select their feeders In Aug
ust. In response to this many peopl'
wrote to the college asking wher'
feeders could be purchased and ex
pressing their intention to buy. Bank

ing farmers SO to arrange their fl.
nanccs that thcy 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 ,hc animal
with the bloclSy form. DO not take
rangy, leggy stun with shallow bodies
The constitution Of tho animal has an
important bearing OH his value as a
feeder. This is indicated by short,
broad head, broad muzzlc, open nos
trils, large heart girth and cloar eye.
Look especially at the mead, as the re-
mander Of the animal generally CORE
spends to the head Pick short,
broad head.
/ Another important point IS feeding
capacity. Just as a dairy COW Is a
machine for turning feed into milk,
II 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, fineness 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 the
same feed yet one lot Of stuff may do
much better than another, merely be-
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 IL Is get
ting too much feed or unbalanced feed
Another point to be observed Is regu
larity of feeding and watering. Let
ting steer go several hours past Its
feeding time may cause 1t to gorge it.
self to such an extent as to develop
serious trouble with its digestion. In
general, a safe rule is that the cattle
that are best cared for will fatten best
The feeding Of the cattle and hogs
for these cooperative markets will be
directed by the demonstration and ex
tension forces Of Clemson College. Tht
i feeding will be supervised directly by
the county demonstration agents
while all special cases will receive at
} tention from the livestock specialist

DEATH CAdAS SOURCE OF
HEAVY LOSS TO SfoCKMEN

The recent loss of 1900 head of sheep
near Prosser, Washington, from Zyga-
denus venenosus or death camas recalls
the warnings which the forest service
has for several years sent to stock
men in rgard to this plant.
Extensive areas of death camas have
been found in Routt county and other
portions of northwestern Colorado. In
one locality in Wyoming 500 sheep
died out of 100 poisoned, and in one
county it is said that 10000 died in
1909.
Zygadenus has q wide distribution
throughout the Rocky Mountain ranges
and is found in abundance in Colorado
and Wyoming. It has An average
height of six inches and its leaves are
grasslike in appearance. Each plant
has only one greenish-yellow flower
composed of = number of smaller ones
and at distance appears eone-shapsd.
The plant has also IN onionlike bulb

HOW THE sr1AWDH1Y
CANE 10 us

"When the first man was created
and mate WAS given to him, they
lived together happily for a time, but
then began to quarrel, until finally
the woman left her husband, and
started of toward the Sun land in the
east. The man followed alone and
grieving, but the woman never looked
behind. Finally the Sun took pity on
the man and asked him if he were still
angry with his wife. He said he was
not, and then the Sun asked him if
he would like to have her back again,
to which he eagerly answered, yes.
So the Sun caused . patch Of the
finest ripe huckleberries to spring up
along the path in front Of the woman,
but she passed by. Further on he put
clump of blackberries, but these also
she refused to notice. Other fruits,
one, two and three, and then some
trees covered with beautiful service
berries, were placed beside the path
to tempt her, but she still went on un-
til suddenly she saw patch of large
ripe strawberries the first ever
known. She stopped to gather q few
to eat and rs she picked them she
chanced to turn her face to the west
and At once the memory Of her hus-
band came back and she found her
self unable to 60 on. She sat down,
but the longer she waited the stronger
became her desire for her husband.
and at last she gathered bunch Of
the finest berries and started back
along the path to give them to him.
He met her kindly and they went
home together"
If you are interested in Indian
myths, you will find charming stories
in the reports of the American bu-
reau of ethnology. These may be
read in many libraries. The legend
about the strawberry is taken from
