Do Not Pull Fodder,
Advises Clemson
A Costly Practice Yield
And Injuries Seed. Other
Good Advice.

Oh oho hoA NOouihS VI VIC COT II
crop Clemson College gives the
following good advise.
One Of the most costly mis-
takes of Southern farmers is fod-
der-pulling. Pulling fodder not
only reduces the yeild of corn
but also seriously Injuries the
vitality of the seed for the fol-
lowing year.
Experiments conducted in
South Carolina on the Coker
farm in Darlington County,
proved that when fodder was
pulled when the bottom leaves
began to turn, there was loss
of at least "a per cent, in the
yield of corn. If pulled when
three-fourths of the leaves we're
dry, the decrease in yeild was
about 10 per cent.
But this is not the only loss
from fodder-pulling. Pulling fod-
der has a serious effect upon the
next years crop by lowering the
vitality of the seed produced on
stalks from which fodder was
pulled. BY pulling fodder, there
fore, a man not only loses on his
current crop, but also damages
his chances for producing good
crop the following year.
A good authority on the sub
ject advises that if farmer feels
he must pull fodder, he should
leave at least two or three acres
of his crop unpulled and from
this select his seed corn. In this
way he can keep up the quality
of his seed and not suffer the
second loss from pulling fodder,
that which comes through plant
ing inferior seed.
MORE GOOD ADVICE FROM CLEMSON
Study and note the varieties of
your own and your neighbors'
vegetables this year and you will
be better able to make good
selection of varieties for your
next order of seed.
Are you making preparations
for your fall and winter garden?
1t is now time for planting ruta-
bagas and Purple Top turnips,
beets, fall beans, fall beets fall
cabbage and other hardy vege-
tables.
Do not be misled by tree agents
who says his trees are superior
because Of their high price. If you
want fruit trees, buy them
through your county demonstra-
tion agent, who will get good
trees for you at e asonable
price.
Clemson College urges farmers
to SOW large areas to oats this
fall. To this ADVICE is added the
warning that farmers should get
their oats in the ground early
aad not wait until late, as so
many did last year. The seeding
Of oats should begin about the
end of September.
Farmers are advised to SOW
enough wheat for home consump-
tion. The state has every reason
to feel satisfied with the wheat
nf last fall. Today
there are probably more flour
mills in South Carolina than ever
before and the railroads have
grsnted very favorable shipping
rates. South Carolina is now in
position to raise enough wheat
for her own bread and this is
what should be done.
