A BAD VOLCANO

Java, an island in the Dutch East
Indies, has had a volcanic eruption
that cost 10000 lives and destroyed
10000 acres Of rice and other crops,
the hot ashes and hot mud doing mil
lions of dollars damage.
Java has population equal to that
of New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, H.

Here are cotton export figures that
are interesting, especially to the cot
ton farmer. Before the late war our
exports Of cotton amounted to an av-
erage of 8,839, ,6O4 bales. In 1918
the shipment fell to 4,G4l l,OOO' bales.
With the war ended and Europe in
great need our exports for the next
year or two should be enormous and
prices in proportion.

COUNTY AGENTS WILL. HELP
SHIP HOGS TO MARKET

W VINO expect TO sell hOgS, whether
one pig or Il carload should at once
fill out the cards that have been sent
them by the Extension Forces of the
Department Of Arriculturc BY so
doing now they vii! facilitate ship
mcnt to market when ready TO ship.
The questionarc that has been sent
out inquiries as to the number of
brood sows each farmer keeps. 1t
is also necessary that the department
be informed as to whether pure
bred boar is kept and, if so, what
brccd,aS we'll as the number Of hogs
weighing over l5O pounds will be
ready for market about October and
how many during; the w'n;"r
These questions have not been ask
ed as a matter of curiosity, nor for the
purpose of taxation; but that the far
mcr may be helped in disposing of his
swine TO the best advantage and with
no cost for ;hc service. 4 number of
hog raiscrs have failed to answer
these questions and seem to regard
the efforts Of the Agricultural De
partment with suspicion. The reason
for this attitude is beyond comprc-
hcnsion.
If any one in Chesterfield County
has been miSinformcd or is not full
! ly enlightened in this matter Mr.. Til
lcr will be only too glad to give full
| information Onlhc subject.
One Of the greatest drawbacks to
! the swine industry in South Carolina
in the past has been the problem Of
| marketing. Many farmers with few
surplus animals for sale have found
| it almost impossible 10 dispose of
| them and are discouraged and feel
| that there is no market for their hogs
or future for the business This is
IA mistake, for there are Il number of
| the best markets IN the United States
to which we can ship, and prices are
high as any time in the history Of the
| country. However, to realize the
greatest net returns it is necessary to
| snip in carload lots which few farm
crs in this section are prepared to do
TO relieve this condition Il number
! Of tn" County Agents in the state
! have adopted the plan Of cooperative
shipping where large number OF
| farmers with one or more hogs get to
! together and ship Il carload. Those
! shipping have realized three to four
! cents above the prICp on their Local
