the production of food or who pre-
vents the wasting Of food is doing
something that counts. The sacrfic.
es of labor which every class i'm the
South will make in this great cam
paign to grow and save food will be
more effective in bringing this war
to victorious end than any other
single thing that can be done. LuCn-

not demanded as food crops probab-
ly will sell at higher relative prices
than any other crops Our allies
want food. We can supply food to
them. But first we must MAKE cv.
cry section of this country ae nearly

foodstuffs are concerned
"' The federal governments

food. Her patriotism will be meas

HOW TO USE THE ROAD DRAG


Clemson College, S. c., April
# a dirt road is properly built, the
'oad drag will keep it in good condi.
Ion. Like any other work there is
a best way to do it. These rules fron,
the Highway Magazine, tell how tc
get the right results.
Use light drag.
Haul it over the road at an angl,
so that Il small amount of earth is
pushed toward the center of the road
Drive team at walk.
Begin at one side of the road
returning up the opposite side
Drag the road as soon after every
rains as possible, but not when the
mud is in such condition as to stic;
90 the drag.
''Do not drag dry road.
Drag whenever possible at all
seasons of the year.
The width of the travelled way to
be maintained by the drag should be
from II to 20 feet; first drag "A little
more than the width of Il single wheel
track, then gradually increase until
desired width is obtained.
Always drag u little earth toward
the center of the road until it is raised
from 10 to II inches above thdges
Of the travelled way. -
IF the drag cuts. toe much. short
en- the hitch.
ThS>best results for dragging are
"Nained only by repeated applica-
ion

SEES MUCH HOPE
IN VELVET BEAN
To the Editor of The State:

| secretary or Agriculture Houston, IN
his able advice to the farmers of the
country to increase the production of
food crops, failed to urge the cotton
farmers of the South to plant velvet
beans of the early maturing varieties
in every acre of their corn. There is
10 other crop which offers such ire
| ncndous additions to food crops in
the cotton belt as velvet beans in corn
since they not only increase the yield
IF corn by supplying it with the sur
| plus nitrogen gathered from the air,
but yield as many bushels of beans
IS corn. Each bushel of beans in the
pod is worth in feeding value for all
classes of farm stock one and a third
bushels of corn. In many cases, the
yield of beans in this section the past
season has been two and three times
the yield of corn.
| High Feeding Value.
AS a feed for animals velvet bean
meal is superior either to corn or To
bran. Wheat bran is selling for $40
per ton at the mills, with high freight
rates, while velvet bean meal is sell.
ing around $32 ton, delivered.
In order, however, to realize on
relvct beans as stock feed, it is not
necessary to grind them. They can
&c fed in the pod without treatment
of any kind, or they can be soaked for
2i hours, which softcns the hard
leans, SO that more will be digcsted:
hey can be placed in vat, covered
with water, and live steam turned in
'or an hour, cooking them, and the
cooked beans will be more digcstablc;
~, cattle can be turned in the field
nd viii cat both vines and beans II
his latter plan is followed, hogs
hould follow the cattle to get the
pcanS that shatucr.
Soil Building Crop.
Velvet beans have an enormous
root system, penetrating the soil to Il
depth Of three or more feet, and thus
nave . wide feeding radius. In addi-
i,r to .rl, .,;I;n,. ,, I.I d..

@ say nothing of the fertility removed
' in the corn crop. But ten bushels Of
corn and 20 bushels Of velvet bean
per acre will be equivalent to a 3G
b bushcl corn crop, and the soil build
I ing velvet beans will put more fertil;
= y value in the land than the soil rob-
= bng corn can take out.
I Now, Mr., Editor. the velvet bean is
simply a valuable addition to the corn
crop. The corn provides the pole for
the velvet bean to run on. and tho
! velvet bean more than doubles the
value of the corn. 1t is preferable,
