PUTTING MOTHER IN WRONG
Small Boy Quick to Observe Point
That Might Enable Him to Es.
cape Punishment.

II was cherry time and Richard In.
sisted on running out in the orchard
and eating the half.ripe cherries. His
mother told him how much better It
would be for every one II he only left
the cherries until they were ripe. 80
they could be enjoyed. She also
warned him she would punish him II
he went to the orchard again.
Soon she saw him pulling off the
green cherries and she went out and
cut tiny switch from the tree. Rich.
ard saw her coming toward him,
switch in hand, and the little Ind said
to her earnestly:
"Mother. II you had only left that
switch on the tree just think what a
fine big limb It would have been some

THE FLOWERS OF THE LEGION
American Daisy and French Poppy
Official Posies Of Both Branches
Of the Organization.

There has been some confusion In
the minds Of Americans In general
as to the status of the daisy and the
pOppy in connection with the Ameri.
Gun Legion and the American Legion
Auxiliary.
The daisy Ia the Legi0n's official
flower; the poppy Is the Auxlliary's
memorial flower. The misunderstood.
ing arose In the first place. because
In its early days the Legion did adopt
the poppy Of France as its flower.
But at Its Kansas City convention the
American Legion adopted the daisy
as its official flower Oh the grounds
that the daisy Is an American flower
and the poppy Of Flanders is avail
able for use only in artificial form.
The Legion Auxiliary Inns taken ad,
vantage Of the very fact that the poppy
Is not available as a real flower to buy
artificial flowers made by disabled sol
diers In hospitals. The Massachn-
sets Legion and Auxiliary netted
something over $4,000 from the sale
of artificial peoples, last winter. This
money was used to better the condi-
lions Of sick and needy veterans OF
the World war.
The Legion is making every effort
to interest the children Of America In
the cultivation Of flowers by appeal
ing to their patriotism and to their
natural affection for such flower as
the American Legion's American
daisy.

which he had saved others soon en-.
quilted him.

Watch tho SOys Grow.

G. w. Baunkight, Of Walhalla, who
likes as much as any one in the coun-
ty to sec good forage crops grow,
and grows them on his farms, now
has as fine crop Of soy beans as any
one in the county, perhaps.
Between corn rows, with few
plants in the row with the corn, they
make a solid mass about four feet
high, the fine, slender, dropping
vines of the Otoo-tan reaching up
and bringing down the precious nj
trogen Of the atmosphere, and they
form a picture hard to duplicate.
This variety is better suited for hay
purposes than others, having slen-
der branches, which do not tangle
like peas, and Of vigorous growth.
The Biloxi variety Is also planted,
this variety being more like the
Mammoth Yellow, being upright in
growth, Of heavier stem and shorter
branches, with more seed, which is
produced in manner easy to gather
with soy bean harvester. 1t has
the advantage Of holding seed better
than the Mammoth Yellow, accord
ing to Mr.. Bauknight.
This method Of planting the corn
about 6 1@ to feet between rows
and spacing it thicker in the rows,
having a row Of soys down the mid
1ic, produces q good crop Of corn as
well aa soys, according 10 Mr.. Bnuk-
night, and is y method which shohld
he N universal practice.
w. 7. Hubbard, on the Seneca
Richland road, and Jas. H. Darby, on
the WalhallaSeneca road, have SOY
beans planted along the roadside
which may be observed by all who
rass. Some Of the farmers who were
observed hauling hay last week to
feed mules to make cotton to feed
weevils should pay more attention to
all kinds Of forage crops, both sum-
mer and winter, and their bank ac-
counts would be larger.

Sow Bur Clover Now.

Bur clover, q soil builder of dis
tinction in Newberry county, and
scattered over the Piedmont section,
should be sown now in case II has
not already been sown. 1t is differ
ent from the other clovers in that
II is practically always sown in the
bur, sown earlier in the season, and
requires much more seed to make a
start than other clovers. 1t reseeds
itself whenever allowed to make seed
in the spring, these seed lying around
and coming up thick enough in the
fall for a good stand, usually.
1t is best to start with a small
place for seed patch, usually on
good soil, or by mixing manure with
the seeds, using at least six bushels
of seed to the acre. These seed may
be bought from farmers listed in the
weekly Market Bulletin" published
and distributed free from Columbia,
or from advertisements appearing in
your local paper, your farm paper,
etc. No inoculation Is needed If the
seed are bought in the bur, as the
burs always carry soil sufficient to
!roculate.

A Big Crane Trip Friday.

) All farmers interested in growing
grapes for market, either on small
or large scale, should arrange to at
tend the Grape Day" meeting at
Clemson College Friday, Aug. II.
Before the cotton season Is over
many farmers will be thinking Of
some other side-line money crops to
help out with cotton, and many
should find that grape production
will fit in well with their farm op-
erations.
The extension horticulturists are
now visiting the commercial grape
vineyards around Trion, N. c., get
ting information from experienced
growers that will be given those who
attend the meeting at Clemson. A
number kof farmers from Pickens,
Greepvllle and Anderson will also
be present at Clemson for the trip
through the vineyards and the meet
ing.
In Oconee county there are now
several who are shipping grapes TO
market, tho Hopkins vineyard, near
Seneca, being the largest, with CAL
houn Boggs, OF this section, and Bar
nett and Cox. Of the Oak Grove sec
ton, also the owners Of nice vine
yards.
The most wonderful small vine
yard ever seen by the writer Is to BE
found at the Oconee county farm,
which is operated by w. r. Cobb.
Grapes Of perfect quality simply COW
cred the vines. Then there Is the
old vineyard, generally called "The
Dutchman's Vineyard" which is to
be found on West Main street, in
Walhalla.
Figures obtained from several
vineyards during the past few years
hy the horticulturists indicate an
average profit per acre Of about two
hundred dollars. This, Of course,
would be less where rot Is allowed
to gain headway. In 1919 one party
reported profit of $4,000 on one
half acre.
A large number Of people should
profit by the trip Friday. Every one
is invited.

will be read and submitted for APP
proval. after which II nominating
committee will be appointed to draw
up a slate of officers for the asso-
ciatlon election. which will be held
the early part of next week.
George II, Fulton was elected
president of the association for 1921
and he has acted in thar capacity
up to the present time. He issued
orders for the calling of the meeting
tomorrow. NJ. J. lIarrigan was
chosen treasurer of the association

secretary of the association during
1921. All OF these officers have been
holding over pending the new cleo
ton.

eiection of officers it is expected
that decision will be reached on the
award of lease for the baseball
field during the coming season.
Harry ApplcEate and Joseph Mullen
are said to be two of the leading
bidders for this field.
