IN TAKING FARM INVENTORY
LIST MANY ITEMS AS SUPPLIES

On every farm at inventory time
there will be found miscellaneous
collection of all kinds of supplies, such
as purchased feeds, seed, fertilizer,
twine, nails, and lumber. These, TO-
gether with the amount of manure on
hand, are all listeh unter the head
ing Supplies" according to inven-
tory methods worked out by the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture.
Nails, bolts, screws, and the like can
we'll be listed as one item, regardless
of varying sizes and kinds, giving the
approximate number of pounds
Where a definite system of carry
ing such shop supplies is i'll use, as
is the case on some of the well-organ-
lied, large farms, the quantities of
the different items of this nature are
easily counted or weighed and apprais
ed accurately.
This kind of property, like ma
chinery and tools, has been bought by
the farmer and should therefore be
appraised at cost, plus any expense
incurred in getting it to the farm. For
example, if ton of barn is bought
for $44, $1.25 spent for freight on
1T, and rs cents worth Of man and
horse labor needed to haul it from
the station to the farm, the appraisal
should be made at the rate of SAC a
ton.

Good news bears repeating, and

this plan would overcome the great
barriers which our rivers now con-
stitute. Such bridges would be of
Statewide significance and the
cost of their construction is not
properly chergeable to any county,
and seldom to any group of coun-
ties. This fact has been response
BILE for South Cardinals slow prog
ress in constructing necessary
bridges.
"a. This plan would in the fu-
ture obviate the necessity for most
Of the county bond issues for roads.
The total of bond issues for road
improvements already authorized by
the counties of the State amounts
to some $23,000,000 but most of
these issues were for improvements
that would simply be supplemented
and made complete by the present
plan. In some case, no doubt,
counties would find it desirable to
provide for additional road i'm
proyement which would require
bond issues, but they would GER
tainly lose no advantage on ac-
count of the State work
rs. This plan provides for con-
tinuousness after the siX-year pc
riod. Any plan that is not con-
tinuous will necessarily be disap-
pointing because the needs of traf-
flee will continue to develop and no
provide before given date for
needs that will develop after that
date. At the expiration of the six
year period South Carolina would
still have about $3,00O,00O per year
to spend for road construction, in
addition to maintenance fund
sufficient to take care of the con-
struct"d roads.
&c The State Highway Depart
ment is at present supervising road
construction in conjunction with
the various countries to the amount
of $4,0O0,O00 per year, SO that the
proposed plan would be little more
than normal increase in its activ-
tiles. This means that the depart
ment would have chance to ex-
pand its engineering forces grad
ually without the necessity Of
sending outside the State for
trained road engineers, and at the
same time would be able to han
die the work with reasonable eff
ficienty.
50. The adoption Of more or
less fixed program, covering pc
riod of years would make for cf-
ticiency and economy. The pres
cnt procedure of planning as we
go, with no knowledge as to what
the appropriations of succeeding
years will provide for, not only
brings about waste on account of
incomplete studies, but is also
wastcful on account of the fact
hat it is impossible to coordinate
the order and progress of road and
bridge construction among the
counties, so as to employ the
States sources Of material supplies
to the best advantage"

BLASTING MOST EFFECTIVE
WIFE SOIL IS WET OR STIFE

In blasting stumps the nature of the
soil is one of the important factors
that must be considered in fixing the
size of the charge. The more resis-
tancc the soil offers to the force of
the explosion the greater will be the
force exertcd against the stump.
Hence, the United States Department
OF Agriculture points out, stumps in
loose, sandy soils must be more
heavily loaded than those in firm,
stiff soils. 1t is generally agreed
that so-called high-spced explosives
give better results i'm sandy soils
than do low percentage dynamites or
stumping powders.
Since water can not be compress
ed, its presence in the pores or open
spaces in loose soils adds something
to the resistance that is offered to the
explosive force and thus makes the

GOOD ROADS PLANS
FOR SOUTH CAROLINA
Expenditure of $34,O00,00O in Six
Years.
WILL BE PROPOSED
Highway System of 1000 Miles Can
BE Had in South Carolina

From the present ration Of federal
aid, an increase in automobile license
fees, continuance of the two-mill pro-
perty tax, levying of Il one-ccnt tax
per gallon on motor vehicle fuel
and the issuance of ten millions of
dollars in State bonds, South Caro-
lima can spend in the next six
years $34,000,0O and complete a
highway system of 1000 miles, of
which 600 miles can be hard sur
faced, according to the proposed
Improvement plan to be presented
to the General Assembly by the
State highway commission. The
full plan:
"Without increasing the present
property tax one cent the State of
South Carolina may spend approx
imately 34,000,000 and complete
within six years system of i'm
proved State highway comprising
about 1000 miles, more than 900
miles of which would be hard sur
faced and the rest surfaced with

get back more than it puts in for

other enterprises.
The fact that the hogs or the corn
crop bring in the most net money dur
ing the season is no reason for as
suming that all the activities Of the
farm in the future should be devoted
solely ito hogs or corn. 1T may be
that the Keeping of cows is partly re-
sponsible for making the hogs so
profitable, or that the growing Of
wheat, clover, or other crops in rota-
tion with corn makes the latter crop
much more profitable than it would
have been if grown alone. #l

follows that, especially in, sandy soils,
better results will be obtained in

Some of the other diseases for which the rate increased are whooping cough, mea- sles. cerebral hemarrhage, congenital debility and malformations. puer- peral fever, scarlet fever. and ap- pendicitis. The fatalaties caused by automobile accidents and injuries show an increase from 9.4 per 1OO,- 900 in 1919 to 10.4 in 1920.
 A marked decrease is shown in the death rate from tuberculosis. which was HAP in 1920 as compared with 125.6 in 1919; also in the death rate from influenza. 71.0 in 1920 as against 98S the year before.
