change No. 2; 1t will prove again and
again No. 3 and it will improve on

Mr.. Bob Hodges to whom the editor
refers has proved all this. Moreover,
there arc lots Of farmers here in Lau-
rcns county proving it every year We
just want their tribe to increase
Will a clover club help? Let's see:

communicate with me or the editor
within thirty days, Just how much
crimson clover seed he will want this
fall there is no reason in the world
why can't. through Clemson College,
buy this at once and save some money
in our purchase Of seed. This is being
done elsewhere and We can do it here.
2. The editor would like to publish
tho names Of this list from time to time
thus showing just how many Of us can
, cooperate along this line and who
they are.
3. After buying the seed your dem
onstration agent pledges himself to sec
that each one is given all the help pos
siblc in properly growing this clover
SO as to get best results.
t. This will give me list OF farm
crs all of one mind so that other CO.
operative measures will follow as the
day follows night.
This is a practical matter. Send
your name and address to me
with the amount Of seed you want a.
to 20 lbs. will SOW an acre. and we will

Senate Accccds TO Tillmnns Request

ton.
Washington, June Ex-senator Till
man has secured an additional $4,000
for the Orangcburs fish hatchery. Last
week Representative Lever made this
fight in the house, but it was lost In
asking for this money Senator Till
man presented letter from Sccre-
tary Redficld of the department of
commerce, showing the value Of the
institution.
The original appropriation for the
Crangcburg hatchery was $4,000 and
an additional appropriation OF $4,000
was subsequently made, the total
amount being $4,000 less than the
department regards as essential for
the establishment and completion OF
a modern fish hatchery.
An inspection OF the station made
by the chief of the division OF fish
culture this month reveals the fact
that there can now be used TO ad
vantage the sum of $1,000. which
would place the station in the way OF
realizing the high expectations enter
