LINING FOR SOUTH CAROLINA
Recommendations Made by n. E.
Winters at National Lime Conference

At the National Lime Conference
in Knoxville, Tenn, Sept. lib, N
E. Winters, extension specialist in
soil fertility, and Prof. H. w. Barre,
director of the S. c. Experiment Sta
ton, represented Clemson College,
and Mr.. Winters discussed the use
of lime for South Carolina conditions.
The following is summary of his
recommendations.
Lime Needs of South Carolina
Soils.-The soils of South Carolina
are deficient in lime for the most
successful growth of legumes and for
most economically solving our nitro
gen problem; hence lime is essential
for best soil improvement.
: Lining Observation-Disclosures lime
stone either high calcium, or Dolomitic
limestone, also burnt and high grade
products from any of these may be
used. In deciding which form to
buy, the percentage of purity, fine
ness of grinding, and price of grind
ing, and price delivered should be
considered.
Fineness of Grinding.-Pulverized
limestone which will pass an sO-mesh
sieve is just as quickly available un-
der Soil conditions as a very finely
precipitated product or burnt and hy-
drafted forms.
Quantity and Frequency of Appli-
cation.-For our coastal plain soils
we recommend not more than one
ton of high grade pulverized lime
stone (or its chemical equivalence in
other forms) per acre once in rota-
tion from three to five years. For
the Piedmont soils, from one to two
tons of pulverized limestone per acre
per rotation, from three to five years.
For alfalfa, not less than two tons
per acre of 80-mesh limestone or not
less than three tons of 20-mesh. A
heavy application of lime may actu-
ally reduce the yield of cotton, pea
nuts, or cowpeas, as is shown by ex-
periments in Virginia, Tennessee,
North Carolina, and South Carolina;
but i used properly in a good rota-
tion, it increases the yields of all
crops in the rotation.
Lining and Crop Rotation.-Most
South Carolina soils are low in or
ganic matter and nitrogen, and for
soils in this condition lime is recon-

annual loss of 25 to so percent of the
entire production will continue. The
up-to-date livestock breeder would
not think of using scrub sire to
lead his herd; neither would the
corn grower think of selecting his
seed corn from "nubbins." Yet the
old idea of bedding sweet potato
strings, irrespective of the high or
low yield in hill, continues to pre-
vail; and the result is poor quality,
low yield, and an expensive crop.
South Carolina will produce, this
year, about nine million bushels OF
potatoes and probably not more than
one third of this quantity will be of
marketable quality. This loss should
be attributed not entirely to poor
storage methods employed, but large
| ly to lack of careful seed selection.
Seed stock planted from year to
year, with no attention to selection,
becomes infested with various rots
and if an occasional off-colored pota-
to, or mixed variety, is used, which
could easily happen under the very
best condition, it goes from bad to
worse.
Seed selection should rest on the
two general units of purpose and
ideal, the variety and the hill. Sc
lect the variety that the commercial
market demands-the Porto Rico OF
Nancy Hall, one exclusive of the
other. Select those hills possessing
and presenting, in the most notice
able way, outstanding characteristics
of the variety. A hill might be. high
in number of potatoes but very low
in the number of marketable pota-
toes. Therefore, selection should be
at harvesting time and from the hills
giving the greatest number of uni
form marketable roots.
Where no attention has been given
Il
previously to seed selection, the sur
est and most reliable source of seed
would be from the vine-cutting patch.
So far as stem rot is concerned, po-
tatoes must be carefully selected in
the fall before going in storage. The
stem should be split open down to the
small root. Potatoes should not be
used for seed that have black rot
marks on them, or from vines the
stems of which are blackened inside.
To play safe, growers should select
about double the quantity of -pota-
toes that they anticipate bedding the
coming season and thus be able to
make second selection. AS to guam
tity, one should remember that three
to four bushels, when properly bed
ded, will furnish at three drawings
plants enough for an acre, or 10000
to $4,000.

RatiOns for Sucking Pigs.

While it is true that SOW will
usually produce sufficient milk to
keep her pigs in good thrifty condi-
ton, it is advisable to feed the pig
some additional concentrates. Any
one of the following rations suggested
by Prof. L. v. Starkey, chief of the
animal husbandry division, will be
relished by the pigs.
1. Soaked shelled corn 100 pounds;
skimmilk or buttermilk 800 pounds;
pasture. Nutritive ratio 1:5. q.
2. Corn meal so pounds; middlings
35 pounds; tankage or fish meal 5
pounds; pasture. Nutritive ratio
1:5. 60.
3. Soaked shelled corn 85 pounds;
tankage or fish meal Is pounds;
pasture. Nutritive ratio Ia. 66.
Young pigs make more economical
gains than they will make when they
get older, and for this reason the
opportunity to feed them we'll while
young should not be neglected. 1t
is usually true that rapid gains are
more economical than slow gains
an additional reason for supplement-
ing the mothers milk.
Possibly the main reason why pigs
should be taught to eat early is that
when they are weaned they know how
to eat and not stunted.
