SOUTH CAROLINA TOBACCO
GROWERS ORGANIZING

Ihlrty-elght mass meetings of to-
bacco growers in South Carolina
begin Monday and will be carried to
every marketing point of the asso-
citation according to present plans
of the Tobacco Growers Coop
erative Association
Leaders from Kentucky, Virginia
and North Carolina are scheduled to
join officials of the association in
South Carolina next week on a speak
ing tour which will reach thousands
of tobacco growers in this state.
Vice Presidents of the association
from Virginia, North Carolina and
South Carolina officials of the Exten-
sion Division from several states. vet
eran leaders of the $4,000 tobacco
growers will address the farmers of
South Carolina whose last chance to
sign-up their 1922 crop with the mar
keting association will soon be over.
Why tobacco sold in Kentucky
through the Cooperative Association
brought $4,000 per hundred while
hurley tobacco on the auction floors
averaged less than $21.OO will be told
by members of the Farmers Burley
Pool.
Tobacco growers are coming all the
way from Kentucky to tell why 90
per cent. of the hurley farmers have
signed the Cooperative Marketing
Contract and to explain why three
thousand new members rushed into
their association after the second paw
ment on their tobacco was made last
month.
Z. T.. Marvin, famous stock raiser
and tobacco grower of Lexington.
Kentucky, who stirred thousands of
farmers to action in Eastern North
Carolina on his recent tour, is expect
ed to be with the South Carolina
growers next week.
Mr.. Marvin told the tar heel grow
ers why Kentucky farmers who could
never get loans from their local banks
before, can now raise hundreds of
thousands of dollars even after receiv-
ing their first and second payments on
tobacco, through the association.
The sign-up of South Carolina
growers continues to increase follow
ing the meeting of warehouse manae-
ers for the association held in Flo
renee last week.
Prominent tobacco planters from
South Carolina who have joined the
association within the last few days
are George Holiday of Aynor, Hor-
ry County, j. c.. Davis Of Centenary

GEORGIA FARMERS BLUE
OVER POOR START

Farmers in all sections of Geor-
gia are bluer than they have been
in many months and are expecting
practically to be failures, according
to information reaching the state de-
partment of agriculture.
Until two or three weeks ago the
heavy rains had centered in Middle
and North Georgia, while South Geor-
gia farmers were getting chance to
go ahead with their work, but since
that time it has been raining almost
constantly III South Georgia, so the
gloom lies now general, it was said.
Water is reported to be still stand
ing in most of the lowlands and when
it subsidies it will be too late to pre-
pare properly the soil for corn. Some
farmers are planning to plow up their
cotton and plant corn, but farming ex-
perts fear they will be too late for
this, since the high grass must be
moved and raked, and then the
ground plowed and narrowed before
the cron crop can be put in.
Many farmers have made desperate
efforts to save their cotton by wading
into the water and mud in their bare
feet and chopping out the grass How
ever, they are not expected to sccom-
plish much by this method, since the
soil is so wet that the grass will contin-
ue to grow, simply taking hold again
in a new location between the cotton
rows. In many cotton fields the grass
is said to be more than knee deep.
Asked about the situation J. J.
Brown, Commissioner of Agriculture,
admitted that the farmers are sending
in very pessimistic reports and that
there are indications of one of the
shortest cotton crops on record There
are still chances to get corn, the COM
missioner said, but present conditions
are very unfavorable for planting
corn and the time is growing short

THE SUNDERLAND CREAMERY

Batesburg, June 15.-The Sum-
merland Creamery, which has been in
operation less than two months, is
proving to be just what the farmers
of this section needed, according to
ID. c. Badger, District Dairy Husband
man, who reports that the creamery
is helping to put the farmers on a
cash basis-the greatest need perhaps
of South Carolina farmers today.
The creamery, in the establishment
of which the Extension Service aided,
IS run in connection with the Bates
burg Beverage q Ice Co. so that the
power, refrigeration and space were
provided without the usual expense of
money and time for these things. Be-
ginning with an initial churning of on
ly 122 pounds of butter, it is now re-
ceiving 1900 to 1900 pounds of cream
per week from which are made 600 to
700 pounds of butter. A first class
product is being made, says Mr. Bad
ger, and there is no trouble in selling
1T to advantage in Columbia, Augusta,
Aiken and Batesburg. In fact, the, sup
ply canont meet the demand.
Since the creamery has been in op-
Grafton, the Manager, Mr.. M. P. Haz-
ell, has also put in milk feeding sta
ton for poultry, which provides a
market for all kinds of poultry. The
troilers received are placed in bat
tcries and fed on buttermilk mash
for fourteen days and then shipped to
the Northern markets at fancy
price.
During May the creamery and the
poultry market paid to the farmers a
little over $1400. Of this amount, the
creamery alone paid $76O. The farm
ers in the vicinity of Batesburg are
naturally very well pleased, and if it
continues to manufacture the quality
of butter now being turned out, it will
have splendid growth.

REASONS FOR PLANTING
SOYBEANS

Soybeans will grow on poor soils
where cowpeas fail, and on soils too
wet for cowpeas, and cn the average
in cultivated rows will yield 25 per
cent. to SO per cent. more hay or seed
than cowpeas.
1t is usually possible to get more
profit from an acre Of soybeans
than from an acre of cowpeas and
have mere material to turn in for
soil improvement.
Soybeans can be used by South
ern cotton oil mills to supplement
cotton seed and thereby lengthen the
operating season of the mills. A ton
of soybeans will make from 32 to
35 gallons of oil and 1850 pounds of
meal. There is a loss in the milling
operations of only about 12O pounds
per ton.
Soybean meal contains 80 per cent.
more nitrogen than cottonseed meal
and has higher feeding value.
Soybean oil has wide range of
usefulness in the manufacture of
soaps, paints, varnishes, linoleums, oil
cloth, etc.
The soybean can be used a way to
return good revenue and at the same
time to be soil-building crop, soil
Improvement being the greatest un-
derlying problem in the South.
The above are some of the rea-
sons why farmers should plant soy
beans given IN Extension Circula. &c,
Soy Beans just published by the
Extension Service. Copiej may be had
upon application.

down the list of names until she found

Her eyes filed, binding her, as she
put the paper down. and began to take
on her things. She had been cllnglng

'Mr. Spearman has come in?"

An instant De4Ofe saying to the cfefay
"Mr. Spearman has come I'M"
The clerk hesitated, but the con-
ffnuance of the tone from the other
side Of the partition made reply su-
perfiuous. "Yes, Miss Sheriff."
Constance went to Henry's door and
raped. He made no answer and no
move to open the door; so, after wait
Ing q moment, she turned the knob and
went In.
Henry was seated at his desk, facing
her, his big hands before him; one
OF them held the telephone receiver.
He lifted 1t slowly and put 1t upon the
hook beside the transmitter as he
watched her with steady, silent, ag-
gressive scrutiny. He did not rise;
only after a moment he recollected that
he had not done so and came to his
feet. Good morning, Connie" he said
"Come I'm. WHAT'S the news?"
The impulse which had brought her
into his Office went from her. She had
not seen nor heard from Henry direct
u since before Alan's telegram had
come late yesterday afternoon; si,r
had heard from her father only that
he had informed Henry; that was all.
"Tve no news, Henry" she said.
"Have you" She closed the door be.

"HOw did you happen to be here.
