community, where the farms are rea-
Gonably convenient to each other,
should all plant tobacco. The reason
for this is that this plan makes it pos
Sible to secure the necessary expert
advice and supervisio at the least pos
s;5.c expense, and in addition makes
possible the interchange of necessary
labor at the harvest season. This last
IS very important consideration. The
curing of tobacco is a matter of prime
importance, and for this purpose a
properly constructed curing house is
necessary. The curing houseseare not
necessarily expensive. For Instance,
curing house sixteen feet square,
which would be amply large to care
for five acres of tobacco, can be built
at a cost of $3.50. to $500. A house
eighteen feet square, which would be
large enough to care for seven acres
OF tobacco, would cost proportionate-
~ more If you decide 20 try tobacco
for money crop it is essential that
you first interest your neighbors in
the project so that arrangements can
nc made to secure the necessary ex-
pert advice. If tobacco looks good to
you we cannot too strongly recon-
mend that you arrange to visit the
Nichols and Douglas sections and find
out for yourself more about tho
trouble and the profit of tobacco
growing. You can make the trip by
automobile in day, and if it is made
it may easily prove to be the most
profitable trip you ever made. If you
have any thought of going in for to-
bacco as money crop we very
strongly urge prompt action so there
may be plenty of time to make all
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1919-11-19

done there is no reason why it might
not prove very profitable.
Corn can be made profitable cash
crop II the proper attention is given
10 it,. The corn weevil and the ra,
waste than the boil wccvi despite the
fact that it it's entirely possible 20
free the premises of both these pests.
The proper use of Carbon Disulphidc
IN correctly constructed barns will
free the corn of both the weevil and
the rat. Because it can be done it
ought to be done if for. no other rea-
son than to reduce the number O;
acres actually needed to De planted to
corr. to meet all of the farm needs.
Wccvil infested corn is unmarketable
and besides it is unfit for human con-
sm ption. Being rid Of the wecvil
and the rat and with proper attention
to quality ready market can be founG
for carload quantities of corn, either
shelled and sacked or in the shuck.
Velvet beans are not only a splen-
did soil improver but a ready cash
bringer as we'll. Large acreages could
be profitably planted. Velvet bean
II" al is on the market and is much
sought and highly regarded as feed
for cattle and stock. If. an acreage
sufficiently large to warrant the in
vastment is planted to velvet beans in
the section accessible TO Blackshear a
iced mill will be established here.
Tbs would afford local cash mar
kct for all the beans we could pro-
, duce.
! Hogs have always been main
source OF wealth in many sections
Il
that intelligent attention to breed and
! care will make them vastly profitable
to the farmers Of Pierce County. The
packing plant is coming nearer to us
al 1.-The time, and if sufficient nog
supply were available their buyers
would come to our local markets for
them. The farmers of Brooks Coun-
ty are finding in their hogs a source
of wealth. They sell every year thou
sands of pounds of cured bacon and
| hams at good profit. When the
! packing plant does not offer the price
/ they think they should have they kill
and cure. Every farmer has his own
curing house in which he uses ice for
refrigertion. He does not wait for
suitable weather but kills whcn the
hogs are fat and ready. By their
! method there is practically no loss
from spoilt meat The Brooks Coun-
" plan is worth investigating
Brooks County is not far away and
any farmcr there viii gladly show you
how it is done.
| Beef cattle can easily be made and
therefore ought to become a great
source Of wealth to the farmers of
Pierce County. Nature has given us
wonderful climate and splendid
range country that ought to be taken
advantage Of. The compulsory tick
eradication law will give US a tick
free county by the end of 1919, which
means it will be possible to introduce

the better strains Of beef cattle into
the county without fear Of loss. Every
attention should now be given to Sc
curing the foundation Of a herd, and
just as rapidlysas possible the infer
ior strains we now have should be dis
posed Of. tits just as easy, and costs
no more, to raise 1,2oO-pound steer
as a 600-pound one. There is whole
lot of difference in the profits. 9th

HOW SOME GEORGIA FAMRERS
ARE BEATING BOIL WFfvIL

How that the boil wccvl is in
South Carolina in large numbers, is
rapidly advancing and will sono raw
age the entire cotton area of the
State; the following liberal extracts
from letter written just one year
ago today by the A. P. Brantley Co.,
Blackshcar, Ga, to their customrs and
friends should be Of interest to South
Carolina bankers, business men and
farmers.
The letter is rather lengthy, but it
is wei worth reading, as it is appli-
cable to conditions existing today in
many South Carolina communities:
Blackshcar, Ga, Nov. 6, 1918.
THE time is now here when those
who make their living out Of the soil
must give serious consideration to the
question of what crop to depend up
on for money crop. The boil Weevil
makes it questionable if it is safe to
rely upon cotton as heretofore. While
we do not advocate the entire aban-
do"ment of cotton for the present at
least, at the same time it does not
now appear to be the part Of wisdom
to risk upOn that crop. Until we
t. 'r' "inp!" wisdom to devote
know more about the boil wecvil, and
how best to control his ravage, it is
only a comparatively small acreage to
cotton. Meanwhile, what will the far
mtr do? He cannot afford to stand
still. He must go farword or cease
to exist. and planting time will soon
be here! Plainly, therefore, decis-
ION must be reached and effective
plans accordingly laid. The desire to
aid you in this critical situation is the
simple purpose of this circular.
Tobacco looks good. and, after
pretty thorough investigation, we be-
iieve there is the possibility of splen-
did profit from its cultivation Far
mcrs around Nichols and Douglas
have made great deal Of money out
of tobacco this year. Our informa-
ton is that profits have ranged from
$1,000 to $4OO, and even more, per
acre. Tobacco does not require the
long growing season that cotton does.
The crop is made and the money is in
your pocket by the time cotton is or
Ginarily ready to be picked. There
fore, tobacco would not interfere with
cotton if you wish to devote an ac-
rcage to both. Further. It is believed
by those competent to Judge. that the
