There are many varieties of the vel. vet bean. and that coming into more general favor Is what Is known as the speckled or 1o0.day variety. in that 1t can be planted. matured and gathered and out of the way in time for the earliest of the fall crops. The method of planting varies from row planting to broadcasting. If planted in rows. the rows should be about five feet apart and one and one-half pecSs are necessary to plant an acre. If broad easted bushel of seed are used and then narrowed In. About 400 pounds per acre of acid phospate will increase the yield. If used as a cover crop. the vines should be cut just before the pods ripen, or few can be allowed te ripen for next seasons seed, and let dry When dry enough they are turned under with large disk or turn pleV, and then narrowed and cross har- rowed to cut the lines into small pieces.

SUDAN GRASS SlLAGE
Result Given of Test Made at the
 Oklahoma Station.
Analysis at Several Stages of Curing Showed Little Difference From Corn Slage-Proved Good
 Feed for Sheep.

Sudan grass has been tried out as silage at the Oklahoma station. Bull letin 115 by C. K. Francis and ". c. Friedman gives the results obtained. Attention is called to the analysis of Sudan grass. IL being noted that it is "a feed of good quality. comparing fa- vorably with timothy and millet, and very much better than prairie hay"
 The crop grown for silage was drilled at the rate of IS pounds per acre. This gave Il rapid growth of fine stems. The grass did not pack readily when put in the silo and liberal quantities of water were added.
 A number of analyses at the sew eral stages of curing showed that there is very little difference from corn si- lage except in the greater quantity of fiber in the Sudan grass silage. Of the quality of the feed the authors say
 "One of the objections which has been raised against Sudan grass Is the difficulty of curing it for fodder. The character of the plant is such that if has been known to heat and spoil in the stack after being cured in the sun for so long as week to ten days. The crop is easily cured with prac- tcally no loss of silage, therefore the silo offers means for handling and satisfactorily curing this crop. there by overcoming the objection.
 "This Sudan grass silage was some what bulkler than corn silage. was of a light brown color, and had faint acid odor. No alcohols were detected by the uusual laboratory methods. The silage was fed to the college sheep, and. while proving n good feed, it did not appear to be relished by the ani- malls so well as the corn silage, but quite as well as that made from other grain sorghums, and was relished much more in this form than as cured hay"

TIME FOR REPAIRING FENCES
For Several Good Reasons Winter ts Best Season for overhauling
 and Building.
fCle,nson collaca p,,,a,,,,

Clemson College BulletinD
 Winter Is the best season for fence building and repairing on the farm. for more than one reason, and experts at Clemson college advise farmers to set aside some time for doing suck work of this kind as is needed.
 Fall and winter are more severe sa fences than spring and summer aDd they suffer much damage from fires which are started in aearhg, .I-sisf, wood One step In fence work. there fore, is to make certain that no piles of brushwood and deihi leaves are left at the fences. People scarcely realize how many fences are lost by fire be cause such trash piles are heapcd about the fence posts.
 One thing that makes this goal season for fence work Is the frequency of hard rains. which leave the ground soft and in condition that permits one to set fence posts rapidly.
 Finally, any job that can be doss on the farm in winter should be done then, because on most South Carolina farms It is the quietest season and there Is more time for carpentry and such work than at any other season.

CONCRETE SURFACE IN TASTE
Types of Architecture May Be Con- sidered That Could Be Attained
 Through No Other Medium.

Tn building permanently 1t is advis- able to select type of architecture that will not only avail itself of the natural quality of the building mate- rial. but will at the same time, be best adapted to an economical development. Simplicity of architectural lines rarely fails to give the quality of beauty. The iignified colonial houses of early New England and the Georgian houses of New York and Virginia offer models that may be easily followed in perma- nent materials. So. too, are those pe- .uliarly American adaptations of the Spanish, the California and mission types susceptible to the same construc- don Flat wall surfaces of soft gray concrete bring out the proportion and placing of doors and windows. White stuceo on a fireproof wall will give the same effect as painted woodwork. with all the peculiar charm of an old Pennsylvania country house with Its lime-washed walls. In fact there is no real limitation incurred by the selec- ton of a permanent construction; the choice is really widened and types of architecture may be considered that could be successfully attained through no other medium.
 It would be possible to continue al- most indefinitely discussion of the suitability of concrete surfaces, fin- ished as rough cast or as finely-tooled stone for interief wall surfaces, and of it's particular adaptability for fire place construction, and other interior tetails. At much less cost than if the designs were cut in natural stone, ar- listic ornamented work may be mold ed for exterior and interior decOra- ton. At small expense a limitless range of colors and textures is avail able.

without first draining out the water and removing the soft mud. The use of sods or similar material which ab- corb water readily is n waste of labor.
 Treat Ruts With Drag.
 On earth or gravel roads ruts are best treated with the drag. The raix- fer the weather the more often the road should be dragged. A liberal use of the drag with thin coat Of sand or gravel spread over the surface when softened by rain will frequently put poor earth road in such conE tion that 1t can carry heavy traffic fsr short time.
 On the other hand, sand roads give less trouble in wet weather because the moisture tends 10 hold the separate grains of sand in place.
 In addition to the pressing need fsr proper maintenance in order to ker earth roads passable nader the unfa vorable conditions frequently encous tered at this time, road work Is desh- ahle in the early spring in order that the road may become thoroughly cos 1 solidnted before summer comes.
 As has been pointed out, the addi- tien ef clay or gumbo 10 sand roads and the addition of sand to clay CT gHHlto roads improves the highway very materially If this work is done during moist weather, fhe materials combine much more quickly. Again. If grading Is put off until later in tkr season, the road will become very dusty in dry weather and will need additional attention later in the fgs.

Like the Germans.

Apropos of the murderous German air raids on open towns, Mayor Edwin w. Fiske of the Mount Vernon exemp- ton board said:
 Why, the Germans have no more regard for womens and children's lives than the old California justice had for the Chinaman.
 This Chinaman had been killed by drunken rancher, and the proof against the murderer seemed irrefut- able. The justice, however, wound up the case in short order.

Types of Bird Houses.

paint it brown or green and throw a little dry earth on it before the paint is quite dry. It must be made to look as old and weather-beaten as possible.
 Make your box deeper than it is wide and put the hole nearer the top than the bottom. Slope the roof from the back to the front, and let it pro jeet far enough to prevent sun, rain and cats from reaching the hole.
 It is much better 10 hinge the roof. as then you can clean the house out at the end of the season, which must be done or the birds will not return. Ii is wise te dust out the inside of an old birdhouse thoroughly with sulphur. Be sure you set the houses out of reach of cats, as they are the nestlings' worst enemies.

FALL AND WINTER WORK ON EARTH ROADS

In maintaining an earth road in tol- erable condition for spring traffic. the most important thing Is to get the water away from the road and to keep it away. To get the best results. this should be done all through the fall and winter. But, in any event, 1t will pay the county in the early spring to have the road man go over the road daily to see that drains and side dtches do not become clogged Ii Is at this time, also, that the road drag can be em- ployed to the hest advantage. By clearing roadway of slush 1t will pre- vent the water from soaking into and softening the subgrade
 Holes Cause Trouble.
 Mud holes. In fact, are the cause of most of the trouble on clay or gumbo roads. To get rid of them, the first step Is to dig q trench O the side and allow the water and mud to drain off. If necessary, the side ditches should he opened also. After this all of The soft mud left in the hole should be removed and the bottom of the trench filled with broken stone or coarse gravel in order to provide q drain that will prevent the further accumulation of water. Gravel if available is the best material for filling the old mud hole. f none enn he obtained. the hest earth on hand should be tamped down in three or four-ineh layers To at- tempt to fill mud hole by throwing in large stones Is fatal.

Evie Greene's Ghost Story.

Miss Evie Greene, the musical com ady favorite who has just died, used 70 tell story about a ghost which she firmly believed she had seen, says London Tit-Bits. The London core spondent of the Sheffield Daily Ieie- graph says the vision was at Sunder- land, when she was playing principai boy in pantOmime.
 Miss Greene was lodging in nsh- x'man's cottage, and one night, when she and some girls from the pante- mime were going to her rooms for sup ger, there overlook them on the stars she transparent figure of little sailor lad. his arms raised, his eyes closed' and his body dripping with water.
 The figure hurried up to the atuc f the cottage, and Miss Greene and her companions ran trembling into the nearest room. Afterwards they went sii over the house, but could discover no trace of the visitor.
 Next thing Miss Greene found her landlady grief-stricken. She had Just received telegraph from the owners sf ship in which her boy had sailed saying that the vessel had been lost with all hands.

 "Why, you told us that the violet had sepals. petals and a pistil, and l couldn't spell pistil.'

HOW TO MAKE BIRD HOUSES

 Be Near the Top.

Here are few suggestions that will prove helpful to anyone planning to build bird houses:
 Martins and sparrows are the only birds that build their nests in colonies. Martins are all too rare, and sparrows are all too numerous; so unless you have a large place and many bird houses do not build house with room for more than one nest. Make the house of weather-worn boards, or if you must use new lumber, stain or

Their roofs were low, matched with coarse straw and reeds, and there was usually but one window, high up under the caves. It was a long time before these were displaced by more solid structures.

Time Is Valuable,

Habit aecustoms us to doing most of the everyday things in particular ways, and we think of them only when they chance to be done differently. We sometimes get the habit of being late in keeping engagements, and feel that the loss, if any, is our own affair. It is also the affair of the one we keep waiting, as he may consider his time of much value.
