KILL WEED SEEDS
. IN BARNARD MANURE
Easy Way to Prevent Land From
Becoming Infested With
Noxious Pests.

Clemson College, s. c., Oct
Barnyard manure may become bad
ly infested with weed seed on ac-
count of hay which contains various
kinds of seed being fed to livestock.
Too often the land is infested with
noxious weeds from this source.
This danger may be overcome,
says the agricultural extension d.
vision of Clemson College, by keep
ing manure in piles 6 to 10 feet
high from 4 to 6 weeks. The heat
and fermentation produced in such
piles has been found to kill practi-
cally all the weed seed with the
exception of a few on the surface OF
the pile! These ian also be destroy
ed by putting the surface manure
under the bottom Of a new pile. BY
this method the farmer may safely
use the manure from livery stables
or such other places. D.

says the animal husbandry division
of Clemson College. The cottonseed
meal should be increased gradually
in a period of 8 or 4 days until the
one-third portion is reached. If the
finishing period lasts longer the
cottonseed meal should be reduced
to one-sixth of the whole ration, and
the finishing period not extended for
more than 5 weeks. Cottonseed
meal should be used very carefully
as it has a poisonous effect upon
hogs if fed in large quantities Ion

BUY A HOME: THE
TENANT FARMERS
- GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY

The present high prices afford the
tenant farmer an opportunity that
may never come again-an oppor-
tunity to buy and own a farm and a
home. Cotton, tobacco and peanuts,
the South's principal money crops,
are bringing record prices, and ten
ant farmers all over the South have
more money ahead than they have
ever had before. The use to which
this surplus is put is going to deter
mine man va mans future-whether
he is to remain a tenant farmer or
become a home7oxner, working his
own land and living in the shadow
of his own vine and fig tree.
Right now is the time of all times
to make the supreme effort. Money
is more plentiful than we have aver
seen it, and certainly we will never
see Southern farm lands any cheap
er than they now e. In fact, out
Of our very plentitude must come
high-priced farm lands, because Of
the increased demand for them. AL
ready in the North and West lands
at $780,, $500 and $500 an acre are
practically out of the reach of the
poor man. He has no THE cash to
buy them, and if he buys on credit
it is almost impossible for him to
keep up thu interest payments, let
alone paying the principal.
Just SO surely as day follows night
similar conditions r coming here
in the South. Already Southern
farm lands in some sections have
gone up to SIS and 500 ar acre,
and it is u belief that the present
generation will see most Of our lands
at these figures and even higher.
This being the case, now is the ten
ants golden opportunity to become
q home-owner. And the privilege of
feeling ones own soil under foot is
worth the effort-worth all the saw
ing and privation that may be nee
essary; for, a old DR.. Knapp used to.

tunity pass.-Progressive Farmer.

FIFTEEN THINGS WORTH
DOING THIS WINTER

Nothing worth while ever "just
hppens." Some man will make, a
wonderful achievement and we say
he is "lucky"-never thinking to
look behind the success for the count
less hours of planning and toll that
brought the final victory.
So it is in business. So it is in
farming. Nothing is going to "just
happen 'on your farm. And with
this idea in mind, we ask, "What are
you planning to, do this winter" If
next spring finds you with better
farm buildings, more conveniently
arranged fields, more modern farm
equipment, or, a more richly stored
mind, or finds you better prepared to
serve your community, all these
things will be to- your credit. If
spring finds you just where you were
when fall set in, then that will be to
your discredit. I;
We don't know what your farm
needs most, but the following sug-
gestions are probably pretty good
ones for you to choose from:
l.. Remove all stumps, logs and
large rocks from your fields.
q. Terrace all hillsides and stop
all gullies.. !,
8. Drain all bottoms and swampy
lands.
q! Repair all farm buildings and
build any needed new ones.
s.. Overhaul all farm machinery,
putting up a toolshed if you haven't
n already.
G.. Install ~waterworks, or a heat
ing plant, or a lighting system.
z. Paint or whitewash all build
ings and fences.
8" Repair fences and if necessary
enlarge pastures.
9. Rearrange fields and clean out
any Corners" if so doing would
make cultivation easier.
10. Arrange for raising more
hogs and other livestock.
IL. Build a woodshed and have
it well filled with stovewood when
the season of rush farm work begins.
10. Read five books relating to
soils, crops, fertilizers, livestock,
farm management, etc.
IA. Read five books relating to
cooperation and marketing, rural
education, rural sociology, rural re-
creation, etc.
Is. Help establish a local farm
er's club or Local Union and farm
woman's club.-Progressive Farmer.

cal kind-furnishing the best of la
boratory facilities to TO the students.
The dormitQry plan has proved a
success, SO this would not be- merely
an experiment which might prove
costly in the end.
The annual cost to educate the
children OF Mineral County, exclusive
of the high school, is about $50 pei
capita. Az the present time the
cost OF the seven students in the hiel
school is about twice that amou
per capita. Ofcourse this is due to
fact that it costs as much To provide
library facilities. laboratory apparat

pupils as it deos for manv times that
number. However, when these ac
commodations are secured they are
not obtaiped for the toy who are in

advantages to be gained by securing

One fact that seems dill, u t fol
SO many people to grasp Is that The

who are in dlf ere II grades i'll the
high school as would be required to
teach ten times that number. High
school work is II grade work. The
student has fewer su ,jects, buG they
require, from their nature, more
time for recitalions, tue minimum
time set by the course of study TO be
forty minutes for each class. There
nre eight such periods of recitation
in the school day. AS each of the
four grades in the high school has
four periods one can readily see
that. us far as the time element only
is concerned. two teachers at least
are necessary to teach The four
