sUccULENT FEED FOR DAIRY
Modern Machinery for Planting and
cuItivatins Roots Makes Work
Less Laborious.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture0
With the development Of the sllo
many dairy COW owners have over
looked the value of roots as succu-
lent feed for cattle. Mangelwurzel,
teets, carrots, and turnips are the prin-
cipal roots grown for this purpose.
They are particularly adapted to the.
cooler and more moist portions Of the
country. The principal drawback to
their use is the labor Of growing, har-
vesting and storing them. On the
other hand, say specialists of the uni
ted States Department of Agriculture,
root crops have distinct advantage
for small dairies, as it is generally ac-
cepted that q silo will not prove eco
nomlcal where less than six animals
are being fed. Roots may be stored
In a proper cellar, or buried in the
ground, and can be taken out in ans
desired quantity without injury to the
remainder.
A surprising amount Of roots can
be produced on small acreage. A
yield of 25 tons per acre Of mangel-
wurzels is nothing unusual, while in
England, where roots are used almost
entirely to supply succulent food, the
yield per acre is increased still further
by intensive farming.
Other kinds of beets, and also tur-
nips and carrots, may be used. Tur-
nips, however, should be fed after
milking rather than before, as they
give bad flavor to the product. Vel.
low carrots impart desirable color
to the milk. For feeding purposes the
mangels will probably be found the
most practical beet. Among carrots,
the Long Orange Is recommended be-
cause Of its large size and heavy yield.
1t forms long, thick root, and is very
easily grown. The White Vosges or
Belgian is grown exclusively for stock,
and Is an even heavier yielder. The
rutabaga is recommended as good
turnip. The same soils and methods
Of cultivating are adapted to all three
kinds Of roots.
The soil should be we'll enriched, and
should be one that warns up quickly
in the spring. Most growers regard
sandy loan as best adapted to the cul-
ture of root crops, this being partic-
ularly true Of the early spring crop.

For later crops heavy soils can be en-
ployed, and muck soils are widely used
for the midsummer and fall crops.
Land that is in good physical condi-
tion as the result Of early and proper
handling, we'll supplied with available
plant food and rich in organic matter,
Is essential to best results. Appli-
cations of stable manure at the rate
of 20 to 80 tons per acre are adyis-
able, and this may proatably be sup
plemented by the use of commercial
fertilizer containing at least 2 per
cent nitrogen, 8 per cent phosphoric
acid, and per cent potash.
The seed Is sown In rows at least
80 inches apart If horse cultivation is
practlced, but under hand cultivation
they need not be more than Is to Is
inches. Ordinarily about g pounds
of beet seed per acre Is required. Seed
is ordinarily covered to depth OF
Y to / inch. AS beet seed Ia rather
slow In termination, the practice Of
sowing some quick-sprouhng seed
along with 1t is sometimes followed.
These plants serve as markers for the
rows before the beets are up. so that
cultivation may be begun before the
beets show above the ground. Radishes
are frequently used for this purpose.
Beet seeds come In clusters, and II
Is inevitable that thinning by hand
will be required.
Roots Intended for winter storage
are allowed to stand in the field until
just before heavy autumn frosts oc.
cur, when they are pulled and stored
In pits or cellars, requiring much the
same treatment as potatoes and sim.
liar root crops.
From 20 to 35 pounds Of sliced or
pulped roots. with proper grain ra-
tion and dry foliage, Is days ration
for an ordinary dairy COW. Thus II
will be seen that 21a tons will carry
a COW through the usual flve-months'
winter feeding period. An acre or two
of beets, carrots and turnips should be
enough to supply any herd which ts
not large enough to make silo profit
able. With the development Of the
;sugar-5set Industry many implements
ana :n,..:lotls of culture have been de.
yised which reduce the labor required
% grow root crops.

Lever Discusses Crime Con-
ditions.

"The Challenge to Authority" was
the subject of the address delivered
by Asbury F. Lever. of the federal
farm loan board in the chapel of the
University of South Carolina at the
formal opening of the institution yes
terday morning.
Mr.. Lever in approaching his sub
ject said that recently the pope had
made an address in which he named
the five greatest menaces of society,
placing the challenge to authority
first.
Mr.. Lever said that never was
property more insecure or human
life held less valuable than at the
present time. He said that the exis-
tence of crime did not disturb him
as it had been ever since the begin
ming of the world and would contin-
ue until it's end, but, he said, the
tremendous increase in the last few
years did alarm him.
Mr.. Lever gave authoritative fig
ures showing that in 1912 there had
been 5000 federal criminals while
in 1921 there are 10000. These fig
ures do not include state criminals
or any except those tried in federal
courts.
The restraints of the law, said the
speaker, are broken with utter dis
regard to consequences, and he gave
as causes the breaking of the prohibi-
tion laws and the laxity with which
these laws were enforced. He also
spoke of the unwhipped criminal and
the conscienceless profteer as con-
tributing influences, and included the
slowness of the courts as a minor fac
tor.
At the outset Mr.. Lever said he
might be choosing dangerous SUBJ
ject, but thought is advisable to a
group of youn: men preparing for
life land in closing said he looked for
a brighter future when the world and
the United States would be more law
abiding.
Mr.. Lever was given "ffteen"
upon the conclusion of his speech by
the members of the student body and
faculty present. The audience also
sang eve. Hail Thee Carolina" in
chorus and an orchestra played dur
ing the exercises.--The State.

"Up to the People.

The enforcement Of the prohibi-
ton law is up to the people of the
country.
No matter how honest, how vigi-
liant or how energetic officers may be,
they are simply tanning the wind in
an attempt to put down business
which is kept alive by the sympathy
and patronage of large number of
citizens.
Experience has shown that some
men who have been able to resist un-
usually strong temptations as officers
of the law fall for the hush money
and the bribe money which the boot
logger or blind tiger willingly parts
with as a necessary part of The cost
of operation of his business. Other
officers find themselves handicapped
by the attitude of the men who rank
otherwise as "among the best citi-
zens."
The federal enforcement division
in this state has fourteen raiding
men. How can fourteen men cover
forty-six counties?
They must depend on the sheriffs
and other peace officers of the coun-
ties. In some counties the state and
federal officers work in harmony; in
others there is not only lack OF
harmony and sympathy, but down.
right opposition and resentment.
1t is not only in South Carolina
but in all the other states.
Lack of sympathy as to prohibition
enforcement is not confined to some
county officers. Governors of states
do not hesitate to express their dis
like of the law. Governor Edge, of
New Jersey is a conspicuous example.
There is Governor Miller, of New
York, Judge and lawyer of the high
est rank, who said in speech in
New York city last Friday night that
"ths method of enforcement violates
personal liberty and breeds disre-
spect for all laws" He said further,
however, though he was personally
opposed to the Eighteenth amend
ment, he was in favor Of enforcing
all laws regardless of personal judg-
ment or taste.
That is the thing so many good
people are overlooking; that, regard
less of judgment or taste, the law is
the law and must be enforced.
Our officers must feel behind them
the moral support of citizens, and in
some cases they must feel the indig-
nation of citizens because of failure
to do what should be done to enforce
the law.
Not until citizens make this force
felt will there be any real respect
for or enforcement of the law against
the making and selling of intoxicat-
ing liquors. .-Index-Jo Journal.
