In the management of beef cat
tie for breeding purposes, the object
in feeding is to develop the animal and
maintain vigor and tone. Therefore,
feed rations rich in tissue4building
materials, protein and ash, and avoid
feeding excessive quantities of fat
forming feeds. Below are feeding
hints for South Carolina cattle
feeders:
Concentrates: Mix the feeds in
each group in proportions suggested
and feed as directed:
Group 1: Corn.and-cob meal or
ground barley or rice meal, 40 pounds;
ground oats, 40 pounds; wheat bran.
20 pounds. Ration: feed from 1 to
2 pounds of this mixture per 100
pounds live weight, exact quantity to
feed depending on age, weight, and
general condition.
Group q: Corn-and.cob meal or
ground barley or rice meal, 80 pounds;

Buy Directly From or Order Through
Home Agencies.
Buying at home or ordering
through home business establishments
anything not on sale in Sumter county
mercantile establishments, manufac-
turing, and mechanical establishments
of all kinds, and patronizing Sumter
county farmers and home labor and
professions means many thousands of
dollars kept at home for redistribu-
ton and for employing that many
more home men and women.
Every time you send a dollar away
for something that can be purchased
directly from or through some home
agency you are decreasing the amount
of money in circulation, sending away
unnecessarily commissions and pro-
fits than can just as we'll be kept in
Sumter county.
Try your home business establish
ments first, and then get them to or
der for you, if you can't find what you
want in Sumter county
The profits are at least kept at
home in this way. Don't send away
any job work, or other kind of work,
if you can help it. Give the home man,

Germs the opportunity to show what

The Sumter Tobacco Market-Acreasc
Buy at Home and Booster Trip
Talks.
While the acreage of tobacco to be
planted in Sumter, Clarendon, Lee,
and other counties tributary to the
Sumter tobacco market will be much
less than last year, nevertheless the
tobacco acreage record from free dis
tribution of tobacco seed by the Cham
Der of Commerce shows that the ac-
reage will be gratifyingly greater
than was expected early in the pres
ent year.

However, had not the commercial
organization purchased and distribut-
ed free seed, and advertised extensive
ly the fact that there are brighter
prospects for profitable prices during
1916 owing to the removal of tobacco
from the lists of contraband Of war,
there would scarcely have been one
fourth of last years acreage planted.

have said this.

In selecting dairy COW, it is neces.
sary to examine both her appearance
and her history. BY appearance is
meant especially those visible features
which indicate to the knowing eye
whether or not a COW has good dairy
capacity. In history is included both
the record and the pedigree Of the
cow. @
/ The picture Of Eminent's Bess, re-
produced here, shows better than any
description what the shape of good
dairy cow is. The dairy cow should
be finefeatured and angular, with
very little surplus flesh. She is a
combination of wedges, all tending to
come together at her head. That is to
say, she is narrower at the shoulders
than at the hips, looking from the
front: narrower In, the shoulder region
than in the rear. looking from above,
and shallower in the fore quarters
than in the hind quarters, looking
from the side. She should have a
large barrel, large udder and promin.
ent milk vein. sharp thin withers. and
a clean-cut, intelligent head, with
large. bright, expressive eyes. Her
skin should be soft and pliable. Final
ly, she should, 1t goes without say
Ing. be sound and free of disease. r-..e
But one cannot depend on looks
alone when selecting q cow for dairy

Counting the number of farmers
who saved their tobacco seed from
last year, with the acreage listed on

given in by those who secured seed.
there will be at least fifty per cent. Of

use. The best guide of all is the anil
maPs milk and butterfat record, as
found out by means of milk scales and
a Babcock tester. The records quot
ed below indicate how important this
is.
In the Clemson College dairy herd
were two cows equal in appearance.
Both were of good dairy type, as far
as could be seen. Yet consider the
following record Of years milking:

The labor involved in keeping these
two cows was the same. They were
Of almost the same weight and about
the same quantity of food was needed
to maintain their bodies. The differ.
ence in their value, then, is due to the
fact that, for some reason not appar.
emily to the eye, Dolly could handle
more feed and was so constructed that
she could return more milk per pound
Of food eaten than could Eurotus,
