Notes From the County Agent.

County Agent >Carwile has asked
me to call attention to the article
printed elsewhere in this issue titled
"Call the County Agents" 1t was
gotten out by Mr.. D. w. Watkins, of
Clemson College, to better acquaint
those who are not familiar with this
branch of agricultural work so as to
show them the real Importance at
tached to County Agent work, hoping
that the few pessimistic knockers
will become users and supporters of
the County Agent.
Also, we desire to call your atten-
tion to the article from Clemson Col
lege, printed elsewhere, that brings
out the best varieties of cotton and
grain as shown by the various expert
ments over the State.
The County Agent says that it is
not yet too late to put out home
orchard, though the earlier settings
usually do better. He can save you
money on your orders.
The spray to control the San Jose
scale must be put on within the next
few weeks, before the pink of the
buds begin to show. See the County
Agent at once if you want to do any
of this work. It will pay to follow the
recommended spray calendar for all
fruit trees, so as to control scale,
worms and rots. Fruit is too precious
to waste during these hard times.
The farmers of the McBee section
have organized to develop the peach
industry and berry industry. Part
of Edgefeld county has great soil
for these crops, and they might help
to make more balanced, diversified
farming system. A few farmers of
this county have been talking of
fruit and more fruit. What say you?

Don't Worry.

Everything black is not shroud;
Don't worry and be repining;
No matter how, dark the cloud,
Behind it the sun is shining.
Don't worry; just say 81 reckon
It's for the best in the end;"
Automobiles for the undertaken
come second,
But worry is his best friend.
Don't worry; this much I will infer
That worry if you but knew
Is the devils recruiting officer
That's working up his crew.
Don't worry; it just doubles the dose,
Makes your burden heavy to bear;
Remember, you'll reach your last
mile post
Soon enough without worry or care
So let worry go to the devil;
Let's work from sun to sun
With a hoe, plow, pick or shovel,
Make 1921 a plenty one.

They came on the Olympic Wednes-

home which you can never realize
till you get this far away.
Guess I'll stop and go to the "Win-

ladies smoking and drinking with the
gentlemen. You know that though it
sounds and looks awful, I don't be-
lieve these women are bad lot. They
are not as rule pretty, and nothing
like so trim and stylish as cur New

be allowed some indulgence.

"Call the County Agents.

Clemson College, January 8.-Do
you want to start a home or COM
mercial orchard or to spray properly
and prune the old trees?
Are you having trouble with your
livestock in any way or is it that they
are simply not profitable?
Is there some bug or worm or
spider attacking your field or garden
or crop?
Are you dissatisfied with the seed
you have been planting?
Are you sure you are following
the best method of fertilization for
your type of soil and crop?
Is the boil rot, cotton wilt, tomato
wilt of other plant disease rendering
your effort at profitable farming
vain?
Have you finally decided to grow
enough feed for yourself and family
instead of buying them, and are you
in doubt as to what crop and what
acreage you should plant?
Do you know the best method of
preparing, planting and harvesting
each of the crops?
If you know this, do you know
where you can obtain the necessary
amount of disease-free seed?
If any of these crops happen to be
legumes (and some of them will be),
do you know where to obtain most
economically and how to use proper
ly the right incubation for each le-
gume?
If you are thinking of buying some
fertilizers, or lime, or seed, or pure
bred livestock, or wire fencing, had
it occurred to you that the county
agent might be able to assist you in
making up cooperative order with
other farmers who have the same
plans, at saving to all?
Is there anything you need that is
obtainable from your state agricul-
tural college or from the United
States Department of Agriculture?
Have you got some boys that ought
to be enlisted in pig club or corn
club or some other kind of club?
Are you progressive-minded cit
izen living in backward community
wanting to enlist someone to help
diagnose and remedy the trouble?
Then, CALL THE COUNTY
AGENT.
The county agent is professional
man having a knowledge of the
sciences bearing on agriculture, says
D. w. Watkins, assistant director Of
the Extension Service, and farmers
who do not use him and find him a
course of information and profit SIM
ply have not learned what to expect
of him and how to use him.

"Speaking of service!" exclaimed the

except in New York." Fl f."
"Well,", grinned guard who was

too short to reach the telephones If
they were high, and others had to al

If they were low, we decided we'd have
'em arranged accordingly. So we have

in either Indignation or amusement
when a small girl, wearing a police

q fine of 10 cents for speeding.

the women, do, too. But the other

CARRIES STOOL TO WORSHIP
Woman at Jersey Resort Village Acts
as Her Own Usher on Sunday
Provides Own Seat.

Summer resorters get accustomed to
doing without the many little convent
ences of home life. They philosophy
ically accept conditions as being nee
essary to camping out" So oil stoves
take the place of gas ranges and they
carry water for the household from
the public hydrant down the bungalow
lined street, says the New York Sun.
On week ends most of the bungalow
colonies house added guests and the
kitchen and porch serve as overflow
bedrooms. Few of the churches IN
the summer towns are able to seat all
the worshipers on Sunday. But that
doesn't hinder the attendance. AT .
Jersey resort village the other Sun
day one woman was carrying camp
stool to church. Her neighbors
thought no more Of it than had they
seen her carrying bundle of gro
ceries from the corner store.
