WANTS ENTIRE STATE

FOOD SAVING MOVEMENT

Herbert Hoover, United States
food administrator, is appealing to
the American people to join in the
food saving movement. He wants
100000 registered or pledged to
save food. The government believes
that food will be the greatest factor
in winning the war for America.
The South Carolina food admins
tration has been asked by Mr. Hoover
to register zoo, 1000 men,, and women
in the cause Of saving food. I write
to ask your cooperation in carrying
this message to the people of the
State. There is no more effective
means of reaching the people than
the county newspapers. The cam
paign to register South Carolinians
will be held during the week. of
October FL to 20. I urge that you
give your county chairman all aid
possible in securing a 100 per cent
registration. 81.

pairing to issue a short statement

department will be edited by Miss

C~ULTIVATING ALFALFA.

Clemson College, S. C.,-Cultivat-
ing alfalfa greatly increases its yield
under ordinary conditions. says the
agricultural extension division of
Clemson College. Of this most farm
ers are aware, yet many are in the
dark as to the best implement to use
in cultivating the crop.
An extensive Investigation with
many alfalfa growers in n of the
middle western states shows that
from disking an average yield of 3.9
tons an acre was obtained; from
narrowing, 3.S tons, and from no
cultivation, 3.4 tons. In narrowing
the spring-tooth harrow is prefer
able. ~
It is true that these results were
obtained under midile-western con.
ditions, but comparatively they ap-
ply equally to South Carolina condi-
lions.
