As to Fertilizers,

Fertilizer prices, as a rule, have
not descended to point where the
farmers feel justified in buying, as
is shown by the fact that a number
OF leading farmers Of the county met
with the county agent recently to
consider buying, and the offers re-
ceived were not accepted.
Farmers seem determined not to
buy rather than pay high price tor
fertilizer materials for the coming
year Then, again, there seems to
he too great difference in the ex-
change ratio between seed and meal,
as there seems to be difference Of
three sacks Of meal per ton in ad-
joining counties.

needs for milk, butter, eggs and
meat, and to utilize the feed crops
resulting from a diversified farm
ing program.
Farmers who are growing any
money crop for the first time are
urged to plant only experimental
acreages. In planting crops for the
home use, full acreage should be
planted so as to insure adequate
production even under poor crop
conditions.
Cotton.
The situation now existing in the
cotton industry is unlike anything
we have ever seen before. During
the war Central Europe was not
customer for our cotton, but produc-
ton was curtailed, SO that, notwith-
standing that fact, prices were main
tanned in keeping with costs. Cotton
growers generally believed that, fol-
lowing a cessation Of hostilities. Eu-
rope would demand normal supply
Of cotton. The following figures
from the Market Reporter, published
by the United States Bureau of Mar
kets under date Of Jan. 30, 1920,
will give a fair idea of conditions
that have operated to change the
actual situation from what it was

Crops for 1921.

(From Clemson Bulletin.)
The Extension Service, represent
ing Clemson College and the United
States Department Of Agriculture,
is advocating this year principles in
farming that have always proved
sound, even under the abnormal
conditions Of the last six years. The
principles, in brief, are as follows:
CD Soil building through the use
Of cover crops, legumes, livestock
and crop rotations. Economic pro-
duction is based on large production
per acre, and this means fertile soils
Economic production is synonymous
with profitable production.
(2) Living at home by filling our
barns, corn cribs, smoke houses and

Western foodstuffs for tenants. This
system should be corrected and the
entire farm made self-supporting.
The attention Of farmers is called to
the fact that the increased freight
rates will add materially to the cost
OF imported foods,uffs this year.
CD After the above has been
planned, arrangements should be
made for the economic production Of
the surplus or money crops.
In conducting our farming bust
ness this year it is particularly nee
essary to live and produce crops eco
nomically. AS one county agent has
expressed it. "This is year to patch
up. fix up and go ahead"
Closely associated with economic
production both for the market and
Tor ho&e use, and are two import
ant lines Of progress which the Ex-
tension Service is promoting. These
are:
First. The skilful selection and
use of pure-bred seed by commune
ties and counties.
Second. The improvement of our
livestock by the use OF pure-bred
sires, and an increase in number so
as to insure the necessary improved
livestock on each farm to supply the

AN OPEN LETTER TO TRUSTEES
And Teachers of OcGncc Co,,aty.
Plan Now for fC2i-22 Tenn,

The trustees and teachers should
plan now for their work for tho
scholastic year 19cl-22. E,ccs Won.
teachers before the present term en-
pires anyway. If your teachers have
given general satisfaction, make IN
"ffayt to keep them. If the teachars
are reasonably We'll satisfied, ,hov
should stay where they are. No
place Is exactly what is wanted ~,
no man infallible; but yours Is not
the worst situation and very likc,v
If you only knew what the other man
has to contend with. you would give
yourself the congratulatory pat on
the back. Let the trustees watch
closely and constantly after the well
fare OF their schools; visit your
school and invite neighboring trus-
tees to visit your school. Much in
terest may be stimulated thereby.
The position Of school trustee, when
properly filed, is not an easy one.
while that Of the teacher is no play
job itself. In electing teachers re-
member that you want those who
are not afraid Of work and those
who work for the best interest of the
children without fear OF criticism.
We want to eliminate the teaching
parents are having to do and put
this work on the ones who are quail
fed and paid to do it.
In the average home the over
worked mother makes sacrifice to
keep her children in school, and She
expects some return. The County
Board of Education advocates a six
hour day in the actual school room
work, not counting play time. How
ever, some teachers have five or six
hours play time, part Of which is
spent indoors and part outdoors
The idea is. when you pay for SER
vice, get service.
Let the trustees and teachers ex-
ercise great care in filling out the
claims. Specify clearly the amount
spent for teachers salary and the
mount spent for fuel, building, re-
pairs, etc.

ord, which was 1852, 900 bales in
the season 19l4-l5.
During the period Jan. to July
81. 1920, the worlds consumption
OF cotton was 1O,36G,165 bales. If
consumption Is as great for the cor
responding period this year, there
will still be left a "carry-over" of
9,855,20s bales on July 81. 1921.
We believe that the general eco
nomic condition Of the country will
make "A marked reduction in the
acreage of cotton necessary. Under
safe system Of farming, very few
farmers should plant more than one
third OF their total cultivated lands
in cotton. This holds good for nor
NAL conditions, not merely for an
emergency. Every farmer should
study the question Of acreage, and
should work out some system pf
crop rotation suited to his soils and
needs. County agents can be of
assistance for particular farms. The
following is three-year system
which may be changed in minor
ways to suit particular farms:
First ycar-Cotton. followed by
cover crop, such as crimson clover
or Abbruzzi rye
Second year---.Corn, with cowpcas
or velvet beans.
Third year-Small grains, follow
ed with cowpeas, soy beans, peanuts.

Sweet Potatoes.

service that sweet potatoes as

Potato Growers Association now has
an cfiicient system Of marketing the
sweet potatoes in effect in this State. |
and the demand for 1921 now ap-
pears to be good.

the safest crops which can be grown
in South Carolina. The new freight
rate from the corn belt to South
Carolina makes the price Of import
ed corn in this State higher than in
any other producing section.
Oats.
Where farmers have not been able
to put in a crop Of oats, we believe
that it is still time to plant on good
land, with reasonable chance of
making fair crop.
Fertilizers for 1921,
The following suggestions and
formulas for the use Of fertilizers
for 1921 are made by the Extension
Service in Extension Circular No. 24,
Farm Suggestions for 1921" now
ready for distribution:
The price now being asked by
many fertilizer companies for acid
phosphate is extremely high, some
companies still asking as much as
$50 per ton for this material. while
others have sold acid phosphate as
low as SIS per ton. We believe that
farmers will be able to get all the
acid phosphate they need for SIS
or less. The government has called
the attention of fertilizer companies
to the fact that acid phosphate can
be sold for SIG per ton.

him to do So. If he can sell his seed
and buy meal ut the same rate of
exchange. it will also pay him to do
SO.
The composition Of cotton seed
meal both vary considerably, but on
the basis of average analysis it re-
quires from 1000 to LOO pounds
of cotton seed meal to contain as
much plant food as ton of seed
The plant food in cotton seed is not
available as it is in meal, so we be-
lieye that one-half ton of meal is
worth as much for fertilizer as a ton
Of seed. But in making the ex-
change we must consider the cost of
making the trade, and to this we
must add the value of the oil con-
tanned in the seed
In the boil weevil district it will
pay to use some quick ammoniate
to hasten the early growth of the
cotton crop. Excessive amounts Of
ammonia will delay the maturity OF
the crop and increase the loss due
to boil weevil injury.
The following fertilizer formulas
are recommended for cotton this
year:
On heavy soils of the Piedmont
fertilizer analyzing 9-3- rs. for
home mixing:
Pounds.
Acid phosphate, 16 per cent. 1000
Cotton seed meal, per cent. 1000
