Virginia Leads Better
SireS CAMPAIGN in 1920

With more than $4,000 head of do
nestle animals in addition to poultry
enrolled in the Better Sires-Better
Stock movement, Virginia leads all
other states in the nation wide effort
to rid the country of scrub and other
inferior sires. The stock mentioned
is owned by 60 farmers, of whom
354 are in Pulaski county, Va. All
of these livestock owners have filed
with the United States department of
agriculture declarations that they
will not only use pure-hred sires,
but will follow methods leading to
further livestock improvements.
The bureau of animal industry,
which is handling the enrolment rec
ards, received from Virginia recently
seventy-two pledges in one day. Of
this number eighteen contained state
mentS thai pure-bred sires, including
rams, boarS and rooGters, would be
purchased. Cases of this kind show
that the movement is not only edu-
cational, but is gradually resulting
in the replacement of inferior males
with pure bredS.

IMPROVING Corn in Dillon

CLEMSON COLLEGE-The ex-
tract below from a recent report of
S. w. Epps, county agent of Dillon
county, is an Illustration of the way
estimable service to his country, and
it is at the same time good boost
for Boys Club work.
1.-TWO years ago We got about ten
bushels of Pee Dee No. 5 corn, which
we thought to be the best variety of
corn for this section. This ten bush
els of seed was pretty well scattered
over the entire county. The yielu
at the end of the session was very
satisfactory, showing an increase
in yield from ten per cent to as high
as fifty per cent. Here is where the
work of the Boys Corn club played
q very important part. One farmer
says that when his boy joined the
club five years ago he was making
ten bushels of corn per acre. After
watching his boy and following the
acre he had been able to increase his
yield, in three years, from ten BUSH
els per acre to twenty bushels.
1.-TWO years ago this same farmer 6
son planted pure seed on his. acre.
and his father was so we'll pleased
with the yield that he planted his
whole crop last year from corn
that he made an average of about
forty bushels per acre on his whole
farm. Il
Last year. we planted, over the
county, something over a hundred
bushels of this variety of corn, and
this year we bought all the seed we
could get from the Pee Dee Expert
number Of farmers had saved their
own seed.

The profits now being earned by
American and English cotton spin
ners and manufacturers, read like
the tabled romances of the Arabian
Nights. These mills are forced to
publish their dividends for the bene-
fit of their stockholders and the
public at large, hence the informa-
ton which comes out through the
press in startling distinctness.
From England comes the news
dleton and other cities in the Lam
cashire manufacturing district, are
declaring dividends from 500 to 500
per cent per annum on invested cap
ital. These profits are so eXtraor-
binary that the matter is being taken
up and discussed in the English
parliament. About SO per cent of the
English spindleS and looms operate
on American cotton. In this coun-
try we find published accounts of
nual dividends of from 200 to 400
per cent on invested capital 1t
would appear from these figures
that the price of raw cotton is far
too low and that the price of the
manufactured goods are far, in ex xc
the government and the people be-
lieve per cent federal bonds is a
legitimate rate of interest on capt.
tai invested in such securities, what
should the government and the peo-
pie think of any industry which ad-
yertises it's annual net earnings at
from 200 to 500 per cent on CAPT
tai invested?
Fair and Legitimate
The cotton growers are being or
ganized into the American Cotton
association to secure what is termed
a fair and legitimate profit on the
sale of their cotton above the actual
cost of production. This rule as
applied to the price received by the
growers for the 1919 crop will not
show net profit to them exceeding
per cent on white spinnable cot
ton, and On low grades heavy loss
has been sustained. To double the
present price of raw cotton would
still leave the growers far behind in
the race for profits which are being
SO tremendously earned by the cot
ton mills.
The American Cotton association
is deeply interested in the success
of the cotton mills, because they are
the legitimate consumers of the cot
ton crop. 1t is particularly DESTROYS
for the successful and wide extension
of cotton manufacturing in the

Sky Scraping Profits

south, believing that the spindle
and the loom should be operated in
the territory where the staple is
produced. But this association is OPP
posed to any system Of marketing
which provides for profit of. per
the growers, and the payment of
from 200 to 500 per cent to the
mills by the growers for their needs
of finished fabric. This is neither
fair or legitimate.
Solution of Problem
There is but one equitable solu-
ton of the problem if the prices for
cotton goods are to remain at ex-
listing high levels, and that Is fo-
a fairer division of the profits, in
and the manufacturers. Forty cents
per pound for cotton the coming
season will not cover the actual
cost of producing the 1920 crop. An
average of GO cents per pound to
the growers will not more than pay
1t is an utter impossibility for the
farmers to successfully compete
with the price now being paid labor
without a very material increase in
the price of the products produced
on the farm.
1t is an absurd proposition for the
cotton growers to quietly submit to
present prices for cotton which hard
ly cover the cost of production,
when every other interest which
touches the staple is making enor-
nous profits. We notice that cot
ton compress plant located at Au-
gusta, Ga, recently asked authority
to distribute a stock dividend of $40
900 on an invested capital Of $780,
900. A dividend of 1870 per cent in
less than twelve months operation
in another department. of the raw
cotton industry, and which mes out
of the pockets of the cotton grow
ers whose cotton was handled in that
particular plant. There are about
ESQ of these plants in the south,
all feeding out of the same trough.
Even the cotton buyers admit they
have made more money the past
season than ever before in the his
tory of the business. The cotton
growers alone have not struck pay
ing dirt" and this is simply because
they are not organized and market
ing their crop intelligently or scien-
tifically.

Secretary, American Cotton Associa-
ton.

FaII-SoWn Oats

Fall seeding of oats has numerous
advantages over spring seeding,
where the fall-sown varieties can be
successfully grown, as in the states
Florida, Mississippi and Louisiana
in Virginia and North Carolina, ex-
cept in the Piedmont and mountain
sections; and in southern and eastern
Texas, announce specialists of the
United States department of agricul-
ture, in Farmers Bulletin 1119, en-
tieled "Fall-Sown Oats"
Under the climatic conditions in
those states, the fall-sown crop usu-
ally yields better and natures earlier.
The land can usually be prepared in
better shape in the fall than in the
spring. Fall seeding interferes less
with other work. Poorer land and
less fertilizer can be used. The fall
soWn crop furnishes a cover for the
soil during the winter and prevents
washing.
The bulletin sets forth the varie-
ties of oats that can best be grown
in the south and details the soils and
fertilizers that should be used. 1t
is recommended that, wherever nos
sible, oats should follow a cultivated
crop. One of the best rotations for
the cotton-groWing section is: First
year, cotton; second year, corn with
coWpeas planted at the last cultiva-
ton; third year, fall-soWn oats, fol-
lowed by cowpeas. Outside the cot
ton-growing section, a good rotation,
including oats, is: First year, corn
with cowpeas in the corn; second
year, oats, with clover or grass
seeded in the oats; third year, mead
oW or pasture. Other arrangements
are also suggested.
The bulletin details the preparati

Use Ak When Disease
Breaks Out in Flock

Disease is one of the handicaps to
successful poultry keeping and
should be guarded against at all
times. Unless kept in a healthy con-
dition, chicks will not grow properly
and mature fowls will lose their
vigor and vitality and become unpro-
ductive and improbable.
1t is far better to prevent disease
by proper care and attention than to
attempt to cure a bird after it is sick.
Therefore it is important to watch
the flock closely at all times for any
signs of disease, so In case an out
break occurs it may be checked at
once. Prevention is always better
than cure, and all those who wish to
succeed with poultry should give
their birds such good care and keep
their houses so well cleaned and dis
infected that both fowls and chicks
will keep hardy and vigorous.
Some diseases may be treated sue
cessfully, while others of g. more
serious nature usually prove fatal
If only one or two birds of a flock
become sick it is usually advisable
to kill them Immediately (unless they
are choice specimens) and burn or
bury the carcasses, say poultry spe-
cialists in the United States depart>
ment of agriculture. If the birds are
kept and an attempt Is made to doc
tor or cure them the disease may
prove contagious and spread through
ont the entire flock

.$1,250,0OO Fortune
HANDS on Title

LONDON-Unless something I'M
toreseen happens the British treasury
and the Indian treasury will in
course of time, share the fortune of
G. W. Wallace, amounting to ST.
100000.
Mr.. Wallace, who was well
known East India merchant. left this
amount to be divided between his
sons providing that before they re-
ceived the legacy they should have
obtained a title not less than a
baronetcy otherwise the amount
should be equally divided between
the British and Indian treasury.
One son already has died without
issue and the other has just been APP
pealing to the courts to hold the will
invalid on the ground that it is con-
trary to public policy. He lost his
case, the judges holding that the de-
sire for recognition of public service
is neither mean nor unworthy and
that the law permits the utmost &C.
centricity to testators.
In giving judgment Lord Justice
Warrington remarked that a baronet-
cy was a barren title, involving no
duties to the state Or the public, ex-
cept those cast on every citizen. The
position is, therefore, that Captain
Wallace will have to get that bar
onetcy or the $1,250,000 will go to
the treasury's funds.

Suggestions Made for
Fiqht on the HeSSian Fly

The HesSian fly, one of the oldest
and at times one of the most de-
structive enemies of the wheat crop
in the United States. is again on the
increase. Specialists of the United
States department of agriculture
make the following suggestions for
combating the pest:
Practice crop rotation. Do not
sow wheat on stubble if it is possible
to avoid doing so.
Pillow under all infested stubble
and ruined wheat, where practicable,
soon after harvest.
Destroy all volunteer wheat by
narrowing disking, blowing, or some
other method.
Plow all land to be sown to wheat
as early and deeply as existing condi-
tions permit, and prepare a thorough
ly pulverized and compacted seed
bed.
Conserve moisture against period
of drought at seeding time.
Use good seed
Fertilize.
Sow wheat during the f1y-free
period, as advised by your farm adj
visor or state experiment station.
Adhere to the practices every year,
whether the fly is abundant or
scarce. They will help to keep it
scarce

The State Board
OF Etomology Saws:

ATLANTA, Cain view of the
prospective serious food shortage,
it is imperative that the ravages of
the aemy worm, corn stalk borer and
other pests now doing extensive
damage in many sections Of the
state, should be promptly checked
Many complaints from different
sections have come to State Ento-
mologist A. C. Lewis, of the de-
structive work of the army worm in
corn and alfalfa. There are several
year, and unless promptly checked,
it soon destroys an entire field.
The most effective remedy, Mr..
Lewis states, is busting the infested
crop with powdered arsenate of lead
Where the corn is over knee high
powdered calcium arsenate may be
used These poisons may be APP
piled with a hand machine, just as
calcium arsenate is applied for con-
may also be applied by shaking
through a sack. Frequently the
progress of the army worm may be
stopped by blowing wide furroW In
advance of them, and dragging los
back and forth over it to kill them
early in the fall in order to destroy
as many as possible of the hiberat-
ing worms.
The corn stalk borer, white worm
with black spots, that bores into the
corn stalk, is now forming a brood
that will lay eggs at the base of the
corn stalk to be Matched next spring.
The most effective method of con-
trolling it is to pillow up all Of the
infested corn stubble in the fall OF
winter and burn 1t.
The worms, the cotton square
borer and the cotton boil worm, are
now working on cotton to some eX-
tent. busting with calcium arsen-
ate, the same as for boil .weevil, is
the remedy recommended by the
state board.
