ting Of iron peas
While out on this trip Mr.. Scale

with many farmers, gave very valu-
able information about fighting the
cotton wilt, and incidentally received
much practical information from
farmers who have successfully
eradicated this cotton pest,
1t was ascertaihed that hundreds
of acres of peanuts will be planted,
perhaps several thousand acres, that
wheat will be increased approximate
ly one hundred per cent. in this Sec
ton, and In other sections, several
farmers planting thirty acres of pea
nuts, and others from four to ten
acres.
The farmers are we'll pleased with
wheat culture. they like the home
| raised flour and the splendid grinding
facilities in this city and county. Ac-
cording to statements made it is esti-
mated that the greatest amount OF
crop diversifcaion and live at home"
| activities ever known in Sumter coun-
ty will be practiced during the next
| eighteen months.
Tobacco and peanuts were talked by

ganiZatiOn as was wheat, oats, hogs
