PLAN FOR MEAT PRODUCTION
Nothing Of More Importance Than Pas
lures, Peas and Peanuts-Start
Bermuda Pasture.
Clemson College Bulletin.)

If your policy is "live at home and
board at the same place." nothing
probably is Of more importance In the
meat production side of such policy
than the four P's- pastures, peas, pea
nuts and pigs,
Now is the ideal time for starting
bermuda pastures, and a little later
grazing crops Of peas and peanuts. A
bermuda pasture with a few ears Of
corn or an equal amount of good rice
meal daily will give gradual profit
able growth of pigs after they are four
months old. Previous to this time they
should have a full ration Of shorts,
preferably fed in slop. Feed them all
the surplus buttermilk.
Peas and peanuts planted at inter.
walls from now on should furnish cheap
finishing crops which win produce
pork at a profit If finished with corn
for two or three weeks In connection
Herewith.

The chiIdren's Poet.

In the st. Nicholas magazine Hide
garde Hawthorne gives a sympathetic
sketch of the life of Robert Louis
Stevenson, whose "Child's Garden of
Verses" is perhaps the most popular
book Of poetry ever written. His pas
sionate attachment to children is ex-
pressed best by Andrew Lang, whom
Miss Hawthorne quotes:
There was a, very pleasant trait
in Stevenson's character which, per-
haps, does not display itself in most
Of his writings his great affection
for children. In an early letter
he writes. Kids is what is the mat
ter with me. Children are too
good to be true He had a natural
infatuation, so to say, for children as
children little boys and girls
were his delight, and he was theirs"

ANY CORN LIFTS OUT,

Sore corns, hard corns, soft corns or
any kind Of corn, can harmlessly be
lifted right out with the fingers if you
apply upon the corn a few drops Of
freezone, says a Cincinnati authority
For little cost one can get a small
bottle Of freezone at any drug store,
which win positively rid ones feet Of
every corn or callus without pain.
This simple drug dries the moment
1t is applied and does not even irri.

Matches Illuminated Town.

In a Midland town a number Of
persons were fined for striking
matches in the streets on the
night of an air raid. The offense
may appear to be a trivial one on the
face Of 1t, but it is really not so, says
writer In Flight. In a recent series
of visibility tests with certain kinds of
light 1t was noted that on a dark night
the light Of an ordinary match was
easily visible at a distance of mile.
Hostile aircraft do not, as a rule, fly
at as low an altitude as mile, and on
the basis of the test just noted the
striking of single match would be
without import. But, according to
the evidence of a police superin-
tendent, although the street lamps
were all extinguished during the raid,
there was almost as much light as
though they had been lit, owing to peo-
pie striking matches to light pipes and
cigarettes.

Nothing but a purebred dairy sire
should be used In breeding grade or
scrub cows which are maintained for
milk and butterfat production.
The use Of a scrub bull can never be
considered as economy in any sense.
The purebred bull should be Of the
same breeding as the prevailing blood
of the cows, for crossing dairy breeds
only causes confusion and gains moth
ing in the end When a good indigld-
ual purebred bull is used on grade
cows the offspring almost invariably

tend the crops faithfully.

farmers. They must do their share and
tend the crops faithfully.
Farmers, in your unions, clubs and
other organizations, resolve to use the
best methods now. When the nation
faces crisis we must have the best
farming in its history. Labor Is short,
hence the best tools and all labor-sav-
Ing devices must be used to make 1t
possible for every farm laborer to
cover as much ground as possible and
do the most efficient work. Farm
women and girls have important work
to do in the garden, the orchard, in
raising poultry, and especially in can
ming, preserving and conserving our
food supply.
Your county agent and home demon
stration agent become more important
officers now than ever before. Your
state extension division at the agricul-
tural College will have still more inn
portant duties. Look to these for coun-
sci and advice in this new burden Of
extra work. The county agent will,
without doubt, have new duties and
responsibilities in the near future.
Farmers and business men, save the
breeding stock. Don't sell cows, heif-
ers, mares, sows, gifts, ewes or hens.
Keep them for breeding. If the breed
ing stock is sold where will you get the
means to supply the meat Of this
country?
Let us forget all past difficulties and
join in mighty effort to feed the
South. What can you do in the next 60
days?

Eounht with kiesslans.

An ancestor Of Count Won Bernstorff,
the dismissed German ambassador,
fought against America in our war for
freedom. The fact is brought out by
a passage in the Souvenirs du Che
Waller de Cussy.p Among the acquain-
tances made by the chevalier in 1920.
when he joined the staff Of the French
embassy in Berlin, was the court
chamberlain, Count Won Bernstorff,

while If a grade bull is used, no as
surance can be given that the get will
not be inferior to its dam.
AS grade dairy cows are kept for
butterfat production and are not used
to produce breeding stock, it is a very
simple conclusion that the bull calves
will be worth practically nothing ex-

for the preservation of one Of the most
beautiful of wild flowers, the column

This appeal win find sympathetic sup
