OTHER cRoPs-coTToN is STILL THE MONEY CROP
HOWEVER, OTHERS SHOULD BE RAISED ON
: CONSERVATIVE BASIS -

duce cotton proftably under boil
weevil conditions.
Before relying upon boil weevil
information, we must be sure that
it comes from source that can and
does disseminate reliable informa-
ton from q, reliable sources and
adapting it to our particular needs
we~can adjust ourselves much more
quickly and economially to the new
conditions enforced by the boil
weevil. We cannot rely upon infor-
nation based upon one years ex-
perience such as the states west OF
Alabama have had. These states
have had time to adjust themselves
to new conditions and to adopt new
farm practices, whereas the newly
infested sections are still founder
ing around from one thing to an
other in an effort to find remedies
for the boil weeWil.
There is no single new crop
which promises to. take the place OF
cotton as our money crop. There is
no combination of crops which can
be recommended as a specific. =
Experiment has show that cotton
continues to be grown as the chief
money crop in the cotton states al
ready infested by the weevil.- 1t
would be well therefore for US to
continue to grow cotton, using the
best boil weevil control measures,
and to undertake the growing of
new money crops only on a. conser-
vative scale. We must simply: adapt
ourselves to the changed aspects of
farming and meet new conditions
with suitable methods.
Extension Bulletin 48, EARNING

been published by the extension
service of Clemson college, to aid
in the fight against he boil weevil.

ton that has been developed by the
experience with the weevil up to

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS
PRODUCERS ASSOCIATION
Abbeville County Women Plan To
Cooperate


The Home Demonstration Club
people of South Carolina under the
leadership of Miss Christine N. South
are beginning to realize that CO.
operative organization handling the
products of many producers is in a
better position to establish and main
tain outlets for these products than
are the individual growers. AS re-
suit we have a state wide organiza-
ton known as the South Carolina
Home Producers Association. This
organization, founded as it is for the
purpose of disposine of the surplus
products of the farms converting the
same into cash has the best oppor-
tunity to succeed as does any organi-
zation which fills a well defined need.
It is a well known fact that orga-
nizations brought into being as result
of an enthusiasm created by an zap
peal to prejudices or misconceptions,
are not nearly so secure as one Great
ed by we'll recognized need. Sue
cessful cooperative marketing ven
lures usually come from small be-
ginnings and are the result of. a
gradual permanent growth.

Develop Hog Industry.

Clemson College, Dec. Given
ty-seven counties in South Carolina
are not producing sufficient pork to
feed even their rural population,
according to the animal husbandry
Of Clemson College, who are urg-
ing the conservative development
of the hog industry in this state as
farm conditions will justify as the
meat bill is one of rhe: biggest items
in the grocery bill of the average
South Carolina family. Four hogs
averaging $50 pounds each will
supply pork for the average family
of five. The farm should produce
this pork supply.
All feeds for hogs save possibly a
little tankage should be home
grown. 1t takes approximately ten
bushels of corn and SIXTY pounds
of tankage to produce 15O-
pound pig. If the average family re-
quires four hogs, then it will take
forty bushels of corn and 24O
pounds of tankage to produce
these hogs. If buttermilk, soy bean
pasture, rape pasture or corn and
velvet beans and let the hogs do the
harvesting. :. =. &HH
Good pastures are absolutely
necessary for economical pork pro
duction in South Carolina and it
has been thorouhgly demonstrated
that good pastures will save about
two-ffths of the grain ration. One
or two acres of rape or rye for win
ter pasture and access to Bermuda
pasture for summer, will produce
sufficient grazing for a brood SOW
and her litter.
Sows are usually bred so that
they will farrow in March and Sep
tenlber, allowing 3 MONTHS 3
weeks and 8, days for the CESSATION
period. It is important to use only
purebred boars, as this is the most
economical way of improving the
herd. -

spite of the efforts of scientists
employed by the various southern
states and the United States de-
partment of agriculture, and IN
spite, of the various climatic condl-
tions encountered over the cotton
growing states, the cotton boil wee
vii has annually extended its opera
,tions, the advance line of this pest
having now moved entirely across
South Carolina leaving the state in
tested from the mountains to The
coast. Fortunately for the farmers
of South Carolina, says w. W. Long
director of the extension service,
we are able ito draw lessons from
the experience of other states over
a period of nearly thirty years, the
boil weevil having entered Texas in
1892. This should enable us to
avoid many of the costly mistakes
that have been made over and again
.by the cotton growers of the states
further vest.
Clemson Agricultural College
and the United States department
of agriculture have made special
studies Of the boil weevil problem
cooperating with every agency in
terested along this line. At frequent
Intervals reliable information has
been issued with the view of keep
ing our people thoroughly informed
regarding this pesssand the methods
of fighting it. In 1916 the college
was instrumental in organizing the
South Carolina Boil Weeyil COM
mission issued by Clemson in No.
:vember 1916, as Bulletin 20, con-
tanned practically all the reliable
information Of Importance that bad
been developed regarding the boil
weeva problem This report had a
wide circulation and was considered
to be so thorough and accurate that
the United States senate published
it in February, 1917 as a senate
document This document is now
available in revision form. Many
other bulletins, reports, and special
articles dealing with specific
phases of the problem have been is
sued from time to time. The extern
sion service, through the county
agent system, has kept this dnfor-
nation before the people constant
ly. AS a result the average farmer
of South Carolina was without
doubt better informed in the prac-
4ical phases of this subject than has
been the case in any other state at
the time of the arrival Of the boil
weevil.
Other. states have had this prob
lem to face, and while the y suffer-
ed severely they have demonstrated
that there are ways of dealing with
the boil weevil problem. Cotton is
being grown in spite of the boil
'weeviy. 1t will be grown in South
Carolina in spite of the boil weevil.
This is not the time, therefore, to
permit ourselves to become depress-
ed and pessimistic. Instead we must
study the problem thoroughly and
learn the methods and practices
which enable other farmers to pro-
