This system gradually changes to-
ward boil weevil system of crop
ping, and also gradually increases
the fertility of the soil preparatory
to better results in cotton produc.
ton during infestation. Extra la
Dor on cotton will be required under
boil weevil infestation, and the acre
age will of necessity be reduced.
Immediately upon the appearance
OF the weevil in or near the com
munity, the system should be chang
ed, rotating the Is acres as follows:
Divide the farm into 8 equal parts
of 6 acres each, and plant to corn
and velvet beans; 6 to cotton with
rye sown in the cotton middles in
November or early December for seed
productions; and 6 to peanuts follow
ing rye. The peanuts to be followed
by crimson clover for seed, and corn
and velvet beans planted after seed
are stripped. In this rotation cot
ton follows corn and velvet beans,
corn and velvet beans follow pea.
nuts with winter clover cover crops,
and peanuts follow cotton and win
ter rye.
The first system will aggregate a
gross income Of $9S7.

HELP THE oNE-HoRsE FARMER

Clemson College, Feb. 22.-The
great majority of our farmers are
one-horse farmers. They are usually
brushed aside with the advice "ge,
another horse" We should deal
with existing conditions until these
conditions are changed. and we must
help produce the means for bringing
about such a change.
The one-horse farmer works at a
disadvantage, 'tis true, Just as the
"one-horse" merchant with limited
means.
THE poor we have with us al
ways but the degree of poverty
may be made great or small in pro-
portion to methods of management
fjudiciously employed.
The boil weevil will immediately
affect the one-horse class more than
any other, and it is this class OF
white and negro tenants that usu-
ally become stampeded and leave
for uninfested territory. leaving the
more substantial farmer practically
helpless. We must therefore. give
timely aid to this class first"
