Vern c. Petty. of this city. who sailed
for South America about a month ago
In the employ Of the Tropical OIL Com.
pany, has arrived at his destination,
according to a letter received here
from him, postmarked Barranca, Ber.
meja. Petty landed at Cartagena on
April 22, Travelled up the Magdalena
river about six hundred miles to his
present location where the shops and
supplies OF the Tropical Oil Company
are located. He remained there about
week, he writes and then went to the
fields where he is now working The
fields are about 20 miles from Barranca
Mr.. Petty expresses the opinion that
quite a pool will be developed there. At
the present time there are four produc.
ing wells and five more drilling yielding
pretty good grade OF oil, about 32
gravity.
In writing OF the natives, Petty states:

Petty writes many other bits OF in
teresting data, with especial reference
to the ignorance existent in Columbia
OF the prohlbitory laws which we will
not publish out OF respect to those who

this promise Of high prices for tobac-

you are inviting disaster down upon
our good people, DR.. Joyner, and we
know you don t intend to. The great
danger and the most serious result
which will come from all this agita-
ton is this; The farmers who Join
the association think some one is go
ing to take care of them and have the
promise of largely increased returns,
naturally they will think it wise to-
raise more tobaccoy The farmer who
doesn't join thinks half the crop or
more will be pooler and that he will
have a good chance to sell for better

matter: Suppose the association
could force prices up to 40 or 80 cents
per pound, average, there would be
produced in Georgia., Alabama and
Mississippi two hundred million
pounds of bright tobacco. The boil
wecvil threatens the destruction of
the cotton crop there and they are
ready to raise tobacco. We have no

can be grown almost anywhere. Fine
tobacco is already grown in the states
mentioned. Selfishly we are afraid

hurt our farmers, perhaps destroy the
value OF their only money crop. We
wish you wouldn't do that Dr.. Joyner.
Now let us say again in closing this
article that we do not doubt the sim
cerity of many of the leaders in this
movement, but we do know that they

tobacco will be approximately doubled
by the association. His only hope for
any saving in expenses is in the re-

companies are now doing the same
work, so to get more for the farmer
he must increase the price. b..
Think a moment, DR.. Joyner. You
are assuming q great responsibility
when you ask the farmer to put his
tobacco in the control of your asso-
citation, for five years. In order to
induce him to do so you saw in effect
that yu believe you can approximate
~ double the price. Do you really
think that? You know general bust
ness conditions, you know the desper-
ate situation in foreign countries, you
know the echange rate against fore
ign markets which use tobacco--Do
you really believe your association
can make the 1922 tobacco bring 40
to 80 cents per pound average? That's
Just what your statement means, as
suming that the 1922 crop would be
no better than the one just sold which
will average in the state something
near rs cents. Remember, the gov
crnment figures show that there is
now held in the United States about
1,500,000,000 pounds of leaf tobacco.
Do you think with this enormous
stock of leaf on hand you can double
the price for the next crop and make
the buyers take it? The Kentucky
association sold a large quantity
Did they get as much or more than
auction sale prices? You can find
out--do so and tell the farmer. Don't
you know that they sold what is con-

crop at an average of about 25 cents
per pound? Good hurley tobacco is

Allow this to remain "a to 36 hours
before bedding to prevent potatoes
overheating.
d. Immediately after heating, bed
potatoes SO as to be nearly touching.
Cover with one inch of sand, then
one inch layer of unpacked pine
straw, and cover straw with d inches
of sand. The straw prevents pulling
potatoes out of ground when plants
are pulled.
S. Bed three to four bushels for
enough plants for each acre, or 10 to
ID thousand plants.
6. Use light canvas, heavy muslin,
or glass to protect plants from frost.
7. Pull plants often to encourage
production.
8. Water plants often to prevent
dryness, but do not keep bed soggy
Two inches of straw loosely thrown
on is good to prevent soil baking,

soon as the acid is drained Off, wash
seed with water until free from acid.
If good stream of running water is

Caution
If left unnecessarily long in the

DELINT COTTON SEED
BEFORE PLANTING
Quick Uniform termination Import
ant in Presence of Boil Weeyil

Clemson College, Feb. 27.-as the
cotton planting season approaches,
and in view of the heavy boil wccvil
infestation and the Importance of
taking every possible step to give
cotton a good early start in the race
against the weevil, it is suggested
again, as ii was last planting season,
that farmers dclint cotton seed be-
fore planting, as one means of get
ting an early crop Of cotton.
Delinting is especially valuable
when conditions are unfavorable for
seed termination. 1t hastens GER
mination from two to eight DAYS de-
pending on soil and climatic condi-
tions, makes termination more uni
form, and tends to prevent disease.
Delinted seed can be more evenly
planted, and it requires fewer seed
to plant an acre. Below are direc-
tions for delinting seed with sulph-
uricc acid.
Materials Needed
Concentrated sulphuric acid about
8 pounds for each bushel of seed.
Three wooden or earthen tubs, one of
which should have number Of small
holes in the center of the bottom with
a copper wire screen over them to
precent the seed from passing
through. A large glass or carthen
funnel with screen may be used in
stead. Plenty of water.
Directions for Treating Seed
Place seed in tub "a" which has
no holes in bottom and cover with acid
five to ten minutes. Stir seed con-

FEEDING THE NARROWING SOW

Clemson College Feb. 28.-Ten days
before breeding time the ration for
brood sows should be Increased. This
heavy feeding, commonly known as
flushing, will increase the number of
pigs farrowed. Experimental work
at some of our experiment stations
shows that when sows are heavily fed
for few days before narrowing they
will farrow nthe average two more
pigs per litter than when poorly fed.
This increase in number of pigs far
rowed is Of great important from
the standpoint Of economical pork
production, says Prof. l.. V. Starkey,
chief of the animal husbandry divi-
sion, who makes the following sug-
gestions on feeding the narrowing
SOW.
Sows thin in flesh should have
tE il feed gradually increased so
as to be in good condition before far
rowing. A few days before narrowing
the feed should be decreased and
should be sloppy rather than dry.
Constipation at this time should be
avoided. A little wheat bran in the
ration will help to overcome this
difficulty. Sows which are constipat-
ed and feverish sometimes eat their
pigs.
For twcnty-four hours after far
rowing the sow should receive no
feed, but should be offered water:
and for three or four days after far
rowing should be fed lightly with
some such feeds as bran in the form
of thin slop or slop made from
cual parts Of corn meal and bran
stirred in skim milk or buttermilk.
Feed the Pigs Through the Sow
AS the pigs get stronger and able
to use the entire milk supply the
sow's ration should be gradually in
creased. The coarse feeds so salts
factory at other times must now be
withheld and rich concentrates must
be fed. 1t is mistake to stint the
sow and try to feed the pigs scpar-
atcly. The best way to feed the pigs
is to feed the sow we'll and count on
her to feed the pigs.
A good ration for SOW sucking a
litter is equal parts of corn and
middlings. For every pound of this
mixture fed should be fed three
pounds of skim milk or buttcrmilk
Another satisfactory ration is corn
40 per cent. mddlings 80 per cent.
ground oats 20 per cent. and tankage
10 per cent.
1t is easy to make runts out of
well bred pigs by not feeding the
SOW well. A brood SOW should re-
ccivc therefore al 1.-The concentrates

are large enough to take the milk.

BEDDING SWEET POTATOES

Clemson College, Feb. 27.--The
time for bedding sweet potatoes in the
open ground is after danger Of frost
say March Is to April I, usually four
. to six weeks before planting time,
says Geo. P. Hoffman, Extension
horticulturist, in discussing the bed
ding of sweet potatoes. If hotbcd
is to be used, the potatoes should be
bedded four to SIX weeks before
danger of f,n"t is over, Feb. Is to
20. The to,icwing suggestions are
made. as to selection of seed, treat
nept for disease prevention, and pre-
pdration of plant bed.
Seed Selection.-Use healthy, uni
form seed from the best yielding hills
of discasc-frec potatoes of the dcsir-
ed type. Throw out all potatoes
which will have roundish black spots
on the surface, or rotten ends, or bad
wounds. TO guard against stem rot
split the stems and if they are black
ened inside do not use for seed.
Treatment for Disease Prevention
--immersc the potatoes for five to
eight minutes in a solution Of 40 per-
cent formaldehydc made by diluting
one quart of formaldehydc in fifty
gallons of water. Corrosive subi-
mate may be used instead of the
formaldehyde by diluting one ounce
of, corrosive sublmate in warm water
and adding eight gallons of water, in
which the POTATOES should, be i'm
mersed for ten minutes. Potatoes
SHOULD be beddcd promptly after
treatment.
Preparation and Handling of Plant
Bed.
Potato plants are usually grown
ih open ground in this state, but for
early plants the hotbed is recon-
mended. Note following points in
D preparation and care Of bed
l. Locate the bed in southeast
esR exposure, with protection from
wind preferred; easy reach Of water;
good drainage; and preferably new
land.
z. SBreak land deep, scoop out 8.
ORD inches of; soil rather than dig a
deep pit. Make bed rectangular, not
over six feet wide, length to accomo-
date the seed bedded. Burning bed
sitd, as in making tobacco beds, helps
destroy weeds and sterilize soil.
3. Mix approximately half and
half cotton seed and horse stable
manure for heat (15 bushels Of cot
tom seed to a plot g. x 144) and put
down a layer of 4 to inches. Level,
pack, and # dry sprinkle. Cover the
miture with 2 to 3 inches of sand.
