CRIMSON CLOVER

Clemson College. Sept. 5.-The av-

crimson clover is adapted in this state
it is one of our best wnter cover crops
for plowing under for spring crop.

roots of the crimson clover, work all

MCCnO0 OIL
If the soil does not already col-
tain the specific bacteria which live
on the roots of the crimson clover,
inoculation is absolutely necessary for
success. The only way to determine
this is by trying it, but if in doubt be
sure to inocluate as follows: Home
grown seed with the husk on may be
simply rolled in moist dirt taken from
the top six inches of an inoculated
field-one that has been growing
crimson clover, or red clover, or
white dutch clover. With clean
thrashed seed, it is best to moisten
the seed with a little water to which
enough molasses has been added to
make it just a little sticky, and then
stir into the seed some inocluated
dust which has been previously dried
and pulverized in the shade.
Failures are sometimes made with
crimson clover on very poor hard clay
or deep sand. On these poorest soils
it is safer to use rye and vetch as
winter cover crops. Crimson clover
is better adapted to a soil having a
loan or sandy loan surface, although
the poorest soils with proper manage
ment can be put into condition to
grow successfully crimson clover.
More failures with the crimson clover

4 WORLDWIDE RESPONSE

Although the international Con-

scheduled to meet until October II,
the answer to the call for delegates to
the conference is said to have received
a. tremendous response. In France,
Spain, Italy, Belgium, Australia, .'orto
Rico. and even far-off China, where
Miss Zung. of the Young Women's
Christian Association, will start on
her long journey, women are turning
eager faces toward Geneva, where will
gather the largest convention of work
ing women ever held in the history of
industry.
At this congress action will be
taken regarding the nature of me-
mortal to be established in the name
of Mary Macarthur, who was we'll
known in English labor circles dur
ing her life as head Of the British
Women's Trade Union League. The
sentiment in this country seems to
favor the formation Of scholarships
enabling a group Of women annually
to attend labor training schools.

The men of eighty-five and ninety
years of age are not the rotund, we'll

will, however, a man past middle age

When this is done, there is no reason
