TRAINING YOUTH.

4 professor in Boston university believes that the
youth Of this generation who are reared in the city

they have had experience with everything that llveE

home. They have gone barefooted while nshing in
summer and they have trapped in winter. wading
through the SHOWS. They have been given the fullest
possible acquaintance with animal and vegetable life.
lie says he would do the same thing with girls, If he
had them. According to his theory such training Is
needed to make them alert and hardy.
The reasons that prompted him primarily to give
mis- sons instructions in the primitive things OF life
are rot less interesting. In studying "Snowbound'
In his classes he found that his pupils. clty-bred, did
not know the meaning OF many OF the terms used.
They were unable to picture in the minds eye a New
England farm on a winters night. Such things were
not a part OF their world. Yet, it is true that one can
not comprehend much OF our best literature unless &C
quainted with the conditions that surrounded life In
an earlier day.
What the Boston professor practiced privately
with his own sons the Boy Scout movement Is doing
on much the same line, though perhaps not SO ex-
tensfvely, for thousands of youth Of the onconing gem

mis- exclusively. The Indian youth had to demonstrate
his capability in w%oodcraft. in his resourcefulness in
obtaining food and his ability to endure prIvation be-
fore he was admitted as i warrior. The Boy Scouts
are taught to be self-sustaining amid conditions where
one not 50 trained would suffer. The Boston professor
may have plans somewhat different from the BOY
Scouts, but the end to be reached Is the same. Each

Time TO Plant
"Now comes the question of the

use. For Spanish peanuts, do not
plant until the soil is thoroughly
warm; May lst, to June 18th proved
the best planting period last season.
Planting very early or extremely late
did not prove profitable. Runners
may be planted during March on
April. 1t is not advisable to plant
runners for market"

PLANTS IMMUNE TO DODDER
ADVISABLE FOR NEW LAND

The necessity of selecting plants
immune to doddcr infestation when
cultivating newly cleared land was en-
phasized by report which recently
reached the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture concerning the
destruction of an entire field of egg
plant on newly cleared field in Pen
nSylvania. So bad was the infestation
that not single fruit was formed on
the parasitized plants and the entire
field was destroyed The doddcr was
determined as hazel doddcr, a species
not uncommon on hazel and other
wild shrubs and on tick trcfoil and
other wild herbs, but never previous
~ reported on cultivated plants. The
department recommends that on land
known to contain the seeds of dodder,
farmers should use plants which are
immune to attacks of the pest The
following plants are not susceptible
to injury by dodder: corn, soy beans,
velvet beans, cowpeas, and small
grains such as oats, wheat, and rye.
Potatoes and buckwheat, crops com
monty used on newly y-clcared land, are
not very likely to be injured by dodder
but truck crops should not be planted
on land known to contain dodtlcr
seeds.

PLANT VELVET BEANS
WITH YOUR CORN CROP

|. The velvet bean is the most
vigorous growing annual lcgume cul-
tivatcd in the United States.
2. AS velvet beans are very sus-
ccptible to cool weather, they should
not be planted until the soil has be-
come warm.
3. Plant velvet beans with corn.
They may be planted in the same row
with the corn or in separate rows.
Two rows of corn to one of velvet
beans is the most popular method of
planting. Plant the beans when the
corn is about two feet high. The
yield of corn may be decreased slight
~ by the beans but the value of the
beans for green manure and feeding
purposes will be much greater than
the loss to the corn crop.
4. The velvet bean is adapted to
North and South Carolina soils and
produces satisfactory yields of 20 to
30 bushels of shelled bean per acre.
The usual yield of velvet beans in
the pod is from one half to one ton
per acre.

THE SOLUTION OF THE
Fertilizer AND THE
BOIL WEEVIL PROBLEM

Many farmers are asking the ques-
ton, what can | plant for Il money
crop this year? Mr.. f. j. Hancock,
Peanut Specialist, Of the Sea Island
Cotton Oil Company, believes that the
farmers of South Carolina can better
afford to plant peanuts this year than
in 1920, and assigns reasons for max
ing the assertion. They are now as
&ured that peanuts both Spanish and
Runners, can be successfully grown in
this section. The 1920 crop being the
equal of any crop grown in other sec
tions, both in yield and quality, has
relieved all doubts as to this very i'm
pOrtant. point.
Thousands of dollars were invested
last year in planters, wccders and
picking machines for use in growing
and harvesting peanuts. This, togeth-
cr with the high price of seed, all Of
which had to be brought from other
sections, and at time when peanuts
and farm machinery were selling at
the hlEh hest price on record, added to
the high cost of labor, made the pea
nut crop an expensive crop. The far
mcr now has his seed, and in many
instances, planters and wecders and
pickcrs. All of these together with a
year of practical experience puts him
in position to grow peanut crop
with less expense than almost any
crop that can be grown in this section,
and with as much assurance of max
ing profit ON his labor and invest
mcnt.
Many planters were led to believe
that they could not grow peanuts
without first lining the land. 9th
ers were fthc opinion that with
liberal application of fertilizer they
could make record crops. In regard
to this, Mr.. Hancock continued: "Lct
me repeat what | have so ofttimcS
said when discussing peanut growing.
/ believe that lining Of land is a good
thing to do, and something that will
be profitable when lcgumc crops Of
any kind are grown. However the use
or lime Is not necessary in order to
grow peanuts and will not always give
returns for the expenditures in an any
one or two years. (My contention in
this has been proven correct by cX-
perimcnts made at the Florence, S. G..
Experimental Station On soils well
filled with humus and nitrogen, $50
to 300 lbs. Of Acid phosphate is
good fertilizer to use. More can be
applied but the amount given has
proven satisfactory in many cases.
The fertilizer for peanuts should be
put IN furrOW and never on top of the
soil. Feed roots of the peanut con
fine themselves close to the main

three or four inches below the sur
face.
Planting
The land where peanuts are planted
should be free from weeds and grass.
1t should be also as near level as prac-
tical to allow the free use Of the weed
er, which is Il yer yimportant implc-
ment in the cultivation Of peanuts.

hotels and cottages were opened for
the season giving the Washington

at the other end of their river trip.
The beach is splendid, and it has
been improved by ingeniously ar
ranged boardwalks, bath houses,
wharfs. piers and other convenien-
ees. salt water bathing. fishing,
grabbing and boating were iRdulged
IN by many of the visitors. Last
but not least, is the large dancing
pavilion which was the mecca of
many, being situated out over the
waters edge where the cool breezes
were always blowing. SokolOv's 5
Jazz orchestra furnished the music
for the dancing at the beach and on
the steamer on its trips to and from
the beach. Numerous other amuse-

and old have been added to the at
fractions at Colonial beach this year.
Beginning tonight, the ever-pop-
