CALHOUN FALLS


When the dam on the Savannah Riv-
er about two miles below Calhoun
Falls is built, the backing up of the
water will form lake about six or
seven miles long and about three miles
wide in the widest part; besides af-
fording a splendid body of water for
pleasure crafts OF many kinds, after
the lake is stocked with game fish,
and the shadows in the bays and in
dentations about the lake planted
with rice to attract water fowl, this
locality will prove to be hunters
and fisherman's paradise. wildwood,
row so much frequented in summer
by pleasure seekers, will be entirely
under water, but the high and wooded
hills about the lake will make up for
tie loss of it. In few years after the
lake comes into existence, the land on
its margin may be expected to become
dotted with hotels and many summer
cottages. An electric car line will be
run from Calhoun Falls, and perhaps
from Abbeville TO the lake, and this
locality will eventually become the
most popular summer resort of the

THIRTY THOUSAND
FRUIT TREES PLACED
Horticulturist Reports Interest in
Orchards to Be Greater Than
in Previous Years.

Clemson College.-Nearly thirty
thousand young fruit trees nave
been placed with South Carolina
farmers this season by c. F. Nlven,
assistant horticulturist in the extern
sion work of Clemson College. In
terest in home orchards is running
high and the growth in this line OF
work is greater than in any previous
wear. The Clemson demonstration
orchards have now been placed IN
all except six counties.
This information is contained III a
preliminary report made by Prof.
Niven. He says: :.
"People in the state are taking
great interest in their home or
chards. The demand for. the or
chard work has been heavier this
year than ever before. Besides a
number of old orchards that have
been worked over and put into
bearing condition. I have placed
among the farmers about 10000
peach trees, 1000 grapes, 1000 ap-
ples and some plums. Several far
mers in the upper part of the state
have also added cherries to their
orchards.
"These orchards are being deVel-
oped with the idea principally of
supplying fruit for home consulnp--
ton. A few farmers, in the Sand
Hill region, have planted for local
markets and for canning purposs.
cat the present time, demonstra-
ton orchards are being worked in
every county in the state except
six"
Bulletins on pruning and other
orchard operations may be obtained
by writing to the horticultural dl-
vision of Clemson College.

Girls Canning Club Work.

When the boil weevil was working
it's ravayes, the founder of the Far
mer's Cooperative Demonstration
Work, our Patron Saint of Agricul-
ture, DR.. S. A. Knapp, said that dl-
versifcation of crops and the raising
of home supplies would aid very
greatly in solving the problem. To
this end Boys Corn Clubs were or
ganized. AS soon as this work was
we'll started, DR.. Knapp set about
doing something for the girls. Ac-
cordingly in 1910 a limited number
of Tomato Clubs were organized in
South Carolina and Virginia. This
work has grown to such an extent
that the prospects are that in 1915
there will be an enrolment of 5O,-
900 girls under the supervision of
nearly 500 women agents in the Is
Southern States alone. The enroll
ment for 1914 was 33,173.
In our Canning Club Work, we
plan to do zone thing at time, and
that done WELL" The first year is
devoted entirely to the study of the
culture of tomatoes, although girls
are encouraged TO can anu preserve
other fruits and vegetables that grow
on the farm. Our club motto is
'"To Make the Best Better" and
when girls follow closely the direc-
tions given by the agent, their pro-
ducts easily surpass any other on
the market.
On the Girls Canning Club En-
blem are four HIS. They stand for
Equal Training of head, hand, heart
and health. During the canning
season the club members are taught
some valuable life lessons. She
learns value of time, the impor-
tance of absolute cleanliness, the
disaster accompanying delayed work,
the Importance of perfect honesty
and the greatest lesson of ala
love of nature.
