COUNTY DEMONTRATOR
 ASKS COOPERATION

It gives me great pleasure to write to you good people of Nevada county.
 As you doubtless already know, l have the job as Home Demonstration Agent in your county for the coming year. My co-worker, MT. C. M. Fer guson, will be here this week.
 My work is to organize and main tain tomato clubs and poultry clubs among the girls over the county. Also to enroll members for the Home Dem onstration Club among the farmers wives.
 MT Ferguson will see after the corn, cotton, peanut and pig clubs. the building of dipping vats, vaccina- ton against hog cholera, etc.
 To the ignorant this work seems very simple and insignificant. To those who are better informed it stands for the betterment of country life as whole. There is absolutely no limit to the various fields of rural activity opened by this government extension work.
 l would like to say to the teachers in the county that am anxious to come to your school to meet not only the pupils but the patrons as we'll and talk to them about the work.
 All you have to do is to send me word that you want me to come and at what time. If can arrange without conflict to an engagement in some other part of the county, I will come
 Yours to serve you,

FATTENING HOGS FOR MARKET
For Best Prices Farmers Should Get
Swine to Packing House rs HAIR
dened and Well Finished Animals.

Clemson College, s. C.-The pack
ing plant at Orangeburg will be
opened in about a month, it is said.
And now that South Carolina farm
ers have a packing plant at their
door, they should market their stock
in the best shape possible. This is
not only for self benefit but it is de-
sired from both the packers and
consumers standpoint.
In case where hogs r fed pea
nuts and other rations which tend to
produce soft pork, for about a
month before marketing corn may
be fed to the hogs to put them in
a hardened condition.
Soft pork is not desired by the
consumer; the lard rendered from
soft-bodied hogs never sets well and
is undesirable, and soft pork never
cures so we'll as hard pork.
A ration composed Of two-thirds
corn and. one-third cottonseed meal
is an excellent hardening ration if

WHAT IS GOOD SEED CORN
Problem is Not a Hard One For the
Farmer to Solve.

Clemson College, S. C., Oct
A good seed corn is that best adapt
ed to the locality, is grown on the
most productive plants of a produc-
tive variety, is well matured and
properly preserved from ripening to
planting time in such a way as to
retain the full vigor of the seed,
says the extention division Of Glenn
son College.
Usually the South Carolina farmer
has not the time to apply the special
methods adapted for corn breeding,
but he can profit from a corn breed
er's work by getting the best pro-
ducing strains and further improv-
ing them by selection.
Varieties which produce most in
one region are among the poorest
producers even in q ,neighboring
state, careful experiments show
Also, ears from bodybuilding plants,
repeatedly produce more than other
ears that apparently are as good, and
seed preserved properly produces
more than corn held haphazard in
a crib, even though both lots germi.
nate equally. -.

BIG DROP PREDICTED
IN CANNED VEGETABLES
Food Administration Taking Steps Ia
Head OF Extortion If Practiced.

Washington, Nov. 5.-An immedi-
ate drop in prices on canned vege-
tables was predicted by. the food adj
ministration today as a result Of the
operation of the license system for
wholesale dealers. Many canned
goods, it was said, were bought by
dealers at low prices last spring and
can be sold at less than the present
market prices.
Dealers charging o than a rea-
sonable profit are liable to forfeiture
of their licenses to do business.
Retailers also will be controlled to
an extent. Those charging more
than the food administration consid-
ers just will find their supplies cut
off by wholesalers who will cease
furnishing them with goods.
The food administration today
warned dealers who have not applied
for license blanks that they will be
charged with violations Of the food
law if they continue to sell goods.
