Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand

Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand
Dollars.
Charleston, Nov ia statement
OF much interest was that made by
John p. Thomas, member of the
board OF visitors. at the 'tpep" meet
ing held by Citadel alumni to stir up
interest in Citadel affairs and espec-
tally in the coming football game with
Carolina Thanksgiving day, when he
said that the greater Citadel project
would need $250,00G from the next
legislature for the purpose of financing
the building of officers quarters, buy
ing equipment and otherwise getting
the plant into shape for use next fall.
The three large buildings built on
the Hampton Park site are practically
completed and represent an exlpendi-
turc, including money for the mess
hall and kitchen building, and some
other work, Of about 100000, but
much has yet to be done before the
great institution can be put into use.
Ofiicers' residences must be built, a
hospital erected, and lot of class
room and laboratory equipment, fur
nishings, and SO on, secured. to make
the new college plant available. 1t is
believed that the request for an ap-
preparation Of s25O,O00 will be granted
readily, in view Of the great need for
this amount Of money. Otherwise, a
most important educational develop
ment will be seriously retarded

PLANT DISEASES
TAKE HEAVY TOLL
Much OF This Loss Can be Prevented
BY Taking Proper Precautions.


Clemson College, Nov. 17.--It is es-
'imated that plant diseases take an
annual toll of smcthing like four mil
lien to eight million dollars in South
Carolil :. Not all Of this can be pre-
vented but very considerable por-
ton can, according to the plant patho-
ogists of Clemson College, who make
the following suggestions.
Flowing cotton stalks under in the
fall and planting cover crops, as ad-
viscd for boil wccvil control will
have the added advantage of contrib
uting very considerably to disease
control.
The following notes from the
Quarterly Bulletin" Of the Michigan
Experiment Station are as worthy Of
attention in South Carolina as in
Michigan.
"a cleanup Of all trash should
take place promptly in the garden.
Many fungi survive the winter on
such trash. Sanitation is the garden
cr's greatest protection
'TIold-over cankers Of fire blight
=" located by the blighted twigs
on which the leaves have withcred
and died. The cankcr is at the base
Of the twg. These should be located
and removed. Thorough winter eradi-
cation coupled with vigilance in the
early part of the growing season will
control blight"
ANY pruning cut exposes the
heart Of the tree and opens the way
for the heart rot fungi As soon as the
cut surfaces are dry they should be
painted with white lead paste (not
zinc whitc). Common barn paint or
ready mixed house paint has small
protecting values for pruned surfaces.
The pruning cut should be made flush
with the main branch. The healing of
wounds comes about from 'callus'
growth from the cambum. If stubs
are lcbt the protecting garts prevent
the healing"
In the fall pruning of apple or
chards the farmer has a chance to rid

South Carolina the foregoing should
be applied to all orchards and not to

In the field sanitation is obtained
by crop rotation. Those who follow

FORD BELIEVES
HE WILL SUCCEED
Sure Lease VIII Go Through. Sees
Thomas Edison.

|
Now York, Nov. 19.-"You bet, it's
going through" Henry Ford said to-
day regarding his lease Of the Muscle
Shoals, Ala, nitrate and water power
project The terms, he added, were up
to the government.
Mr.. Ford, who conferred here today
with Thomas A. Edison regarding the
Muscle Shoals project, was asked if
he proposed to compete with Chile in
the production Of nitrates.
"If we can't beat the Chileans we
ought to quit" he asserted.
Referring to his visit to Washington
when he conferred with Secretary
Hoover, Mr.. Ford said he also had a
conference with President Harding
and at that time had offered to buy
for junk battleships scrapped by the
government as result Of the arms
conference. He added that the presi-
dent had enjoyed hearty laugh.
Before leaving for Detroit the au-
tomobile manufacturer mentioned that
he went to the bedside of Secretary
Weeks, who was i'll, late last night in
Washington and placed before him the
proposition to take over the Muscle
Shoals property. He declined to say
whether they had reached any def
mite agreement. He also presented to
Secretary Weeks his proposition to
buy scrapped battleships for use in
making automobiles and trucks.
IT'S nothing" he remarked, "we buy
scrap iron all the time"
Mr.. Ford said he would leave it to
the experts to figure how much horse
power could be developed and the
amount OF nitrate it would be possl-
bic to produce at Muscle Shoals. That
would be determined, he said, after
he and Mr. Edison with technical ad-
yiscrs, had inspected the property
Both Mr.. Edison and himself were
anxious to cat turkey dinners in their
own homes Thanksgiving day, Mr.
Ford said, but the inventor would go

PRUNING URGED

County for Promotion of Industry.

Orchard Week TO he Held in Each
County for Promotion of Industry.
Clemson College, Novl 81. In con
TIL Cughout the state campaign of
winter pruning, spraying, and other
orchard work is being put on in the
various counties by the extension hor-
a schedule by which they will spend
one to three days with each county
agent. All farmers who are interested
in growing fruit, either OH a small or
large scale, should seek information
from the county agent concerning the
"Orchard Week" to be held in each
county and should arrange to at
tend some Of the demonstrations that
will be given il the various orchards
Of tie county during the time desig-
mated as Orchard Week"
Even under normal conditions the
Importance Of the home orchard in
supplcmcntins the family food sup
ply is too great to need argument,
and under the abnormal conditions
now existing, with the boil weevl
menace to the South's chief money
crop, good home orchard is a ne
cessity for right country living, and at
least few trees should be planted
about each home.
Since fall and winter are the best
months for orchard work, farmers
and othcra who have available land
are urged TO begin at once to plant a
lizard ard those who have al
ready any fruit OIL the place should
plan to give better care in pruning,
spraying. and cullivating such or-
chards as already exist.
Attention is called to the short
agc Of good trees and vines and con
scaucnt high prices, but stress Is laid
upon the fact that the trees for one
fcurth-acrc home orchard (approxi-
matcly 80 trees and yines) is sufficient
to supply the average family with
abundant fruit and will cot prob
ably net more than $40 to SIS, which
is sum unimportant in comparison
with the value Of fruit to be derived
from such an orchard.
1t has been vel said that Man
never plants q tree for himself alone"
This is particularly true of fruit trees,
and all who can possibly do so should

TO the Cotton Planter

The whole South is today interested
in the matter of how to check the
ravage of the boil weevil You have
doubtless read the paper prepared by
Prof. B. r. Coad and issued from the
Delta Laboratory, Tallulah, Louisiana,
under date of July 9Th, 1921, on ''the
efficacy of poisoned molasses mixture
for the control of the boil weevil -
This paper is well worth the careful
perusal by every cotton planter in the
South, inasmuch as it stands out prom
inent as the first real authoritative
statement on the use of molasses or
syrup as a base for applying the weevil
poison in this form.
l am and have been for some time
past preparing an exhaustive treatise
in pamphlet form for absolutely free
distribution among the cotton planters
of the South. Taking the observations
of Prof. B. r. Coad and other ento-
mologists as the basis of my investiga-

and give detailed information for mix
ing syrup and molasses and calcium
arsenate. and how it is applied to
obtain the best results, according to
my general research and conclu sions;
when it should be applied and how
often, etc. My treatise will contain
all the late reports, including the above
mentioned report of Prof. B. r Coad,
(which will be given in fully and ex-
cerpts from U. S. D. A. bulletins,
papers and pamphlets.

to the cotton planter and l only ask
that they send their names and
addresses on a postal and also the
names Of other planters who may wish
to be informed on the subject of "boll
