SUDAN GRASS

OnG OF the greatest feed crops ever
introduced into the semi-arid regions
OF Texas, as we'll as into more north
ern climates, is Sudan grass. This
plant was introduced into the United
States from north Africa in about
1910 and first brought to Texas in
1911
The plant is we'll adapted to the
seml-arld belt and very dependable
yields are secured with little rain.
The writer was i'll Ohio in the fall of
1918, and prominent farmer told
him Athat he had had wonderful sue
jtess with his test plot and that every
tarl!er should have few acres of it
on his place Ohio is not semi-arid
This shows its wide adaptability.
1t is planted for both hay and seed
and it makes an excellent quality of
hay and is relished by all stock. 1t
can usually be moved twice year
tor hay. In sections where grown
extensively, one crop of hay is cut
and the second crop used for seed.
Where sowed broadcast a Weld of
three tons per acre may be realized
in q season.
Sudan grass belongs to the sorghum
f4mily. aWhere sowed broadcast
about Ito 20 pounds per acre of
seed az used, and where drilled about
eight nds of seed are used.
ri was first realized what an
iTS a.lt and dependable crop Su-
dam grass was, the seed reached an
enormous price, but the average price
= Tor the past few years, has been from
10 to IS cents per pound. Higher
yields of both hay and seed are real
lied when the seed are planted with
drills and the grass cultivated as
othe1 row crops.
CaEe should be taken in purchasing
seed. Buy only from the best seed
houses using pure seed.
Farmers in regions of less than Is
inches of rainfall should plant some
Sudan grass for pasture and hay
since it will furnish much pasture in
a dry season when other grasses are
hlled by lack of water-R. L.

NOW is TIME TO SELECT
SEED SWEET POTATOES

Sumter, S. C.-From time to time
we have issued letters regarding the
erection of storage houses for the
sweet potato, and have endeavored to
show the importance Of proper hand
ling Of this important southern crop.
We will deal in this letter with the Sc
lection Of seed to increase the yield
and reduce the loss due to diseases by
seed selection.
Potatoes are an important food crop
and are surpassed in value only by
corn in this respect There is no food
crop of the United States that suffers
so great loss relative to its value as
the sweet potato, which suffers an an
nual loss of at least SO per cent Of its
yield.
There are several ways to reduce
this loss. and one Of the most impor-
tant ways is by fall seed selection.
Seed potatoes should be selected from
fields planted from vine cuttings, as
potatoes grown from cuttings are us
ually free from disease. Go over ycur
field and carefully pick the plants
which show the qualities that are most
desirable. Before digging, examine
the main stem just above the potatoes
to see that it is not blackened inside
by stemrct, and discard any suspicious
hills.
Black-rot. another very destructive
may be found on the vines
just above the soil line and downward
causing black rotted appearance of
the afflicted stems. On the potato it
appears as black circular spots. and
it rapidly increases in storage. Only
those potatoes that show no signs OF
disease, are smooth, well formed. end
are from productive plants should be
stored for seed. These selected pot~-
toes should be carefully handled
placed in small baskets or crates anc
stored in we'll ventilated place Al

AROsEPINE NOTES

The farmers are all busy digging
potatoes and making syrup.
Mr.. P. Moore has sold his cold
drink stand and his house and lot and
has moved to Texas. Mr.. Moore has
been afflicted with rheumatism for the
past year, and he is now changing his
residence in the hopes Of gaining re-
lief. His son Walter expects to work
as bookkeeper for firm in Beaumont
and his daughter Miss Josie will take
up a business course in a Commercial
College at the same place. We all re-
gret very much to see the Moore fam
lily leave, as Rosepine has been their
home for many years and we have
grown to feel that they are part of
our little town. They have many
friends who will miss them very much.
Mr.. Moore sold his stand to Mr.. E. z.
and his home and lot to Mr..
