OF INTEREST TO FARMERS
POINTERS IN PORK PRODUCTION

Clemson College.-At the recent
meeting of the South Carolina Live
stock Association, Prof. L. V. Stark
ey, Chief of the Animal Husbandry
Division of Clemson College, discuss
ed "Pork Production" and the fol-
lowing are some of the points empha-
sized by him.
l. The most outstanding present
need of South Carolina livestock men
is good fences.
2. Forage crops are absolutely
necessary for economical pork pro-
duction. If our forage crops are
taken away, we have no chance to
compete with the corn belt men.
3. Shade and fresh water are in
dispensable for hog raising in this
state.
4. 1t is very important to select
the right sort of foundation stuff; by
proper selection in the beginning a
breeder may accomplish more than
he can in 10 years work trying to
build up an inferior foundation herd.
S. Herds should be kept free from
lice, barns free from dust, every
where free from stagnant hog wal
lows.
6. Sows that are fed well about
ten days before breeding will pro-
duce larger litters than if scantily
fed at this time.
7. Profits are closely related to
the number of pigs which each sow
raises. 1t is highly important to
raise large per cent of the pigs
which are farrowed.
s. While it is true that generally
speaking we can do with a small a.
mount of shelter, in the long run we
must prepare for the worst, because
our hogs can not endure the cold
spring rains without shelter and good
bedding.
9. The "soft pork" problem is yet
unsolved. At the present time South
Carolina hogs are selling "hard" and
it is highly important that we keep
them selling "hard." For this reason
we should not be too enthusiastic
over peanuts as hog feed,-at least,
not until we have gotten some data
to prove that peanuts will make pork
cheaper than corn.
10. We must get our livestock to
market at lower transportation cost.
A load of cattle sold recently by
Clemson College cost SO cents per
hundred freight to Baltimore, while
the rate from Chicago to Baltimore
is 81 cents for the much greater dis
tance.

PEAR BLIGHT

Clemson College.-Blight is the
most destructive pear disease with
which growers have to contend. 1t IS
prisent in practically all pear
growing regions and in many places
is so severe as to prevent CONNER
cial pear prduction entirely. 1t is
caused by bacteria which gain en-
trance into the tissues while they
are tender usually by way OF the
blossoms and multiplies there. Soon
the affected parts die and assume a
blackish color. Pear trees with large
numbers of blighted twigs are ex-
treme]y common.
Control is very difficult, as the
disease does not respond to spray
ing, and there are no commercial
pear varieties which are resistant to
any extent. Eventually resistent var
ieties may solve the problem of this
disease, but that time has not yet
come.
At mesent the best that can be
done is to handle the trees to make
them as resistent as possible and to
trim out the dead and cankered
branches in the winter time. The
trimmings should be burned In Or
der to prevent over-susceptibity es'
cessive nitrogen fertilization and
too thorough cultivation should be
avoided, since these practices induce
a large growth of soft shoots which
contract the disease very rapidly
In fact, it is better after few years
to leave the trees uncultivated and
let them grow in sod.
In pruning, all cankered and dead
parts should be removed, taking
care TO remove three or four inches
of healthy tissues also II possible In
order to be sure that all Of the dis
eased portions are removed. The
knife or the cut surface on the tree
should be disinfected after each cut
or there will be danger Of dissent.
mating the bacteria by the pruning
operation. A solution Of cor.
rosive sublmate in water, / to
1,0Oe, is satisfactory for the disin'
fection. The chemical can be secur'
ed at any good drug store. The tab.
let form is convenient for making
small amounts Of the solution.

BEE ORGANIZATION

Clemson College Associations
of bee-keepers have been organized
within the last year or so in four or
five different counties, including
Anderson, Oconee, Orangeburg and
York. The advantages of organiza-
tons among bee-keepers are of
course very great as in any other
case. The principal advantages as
suggested by the Extension Bee
Specialist are as follows:
l. To establish a cooperative
program of action in which the
bee-keepers join their efforts in
abolishing the great quantity of an
tiquated equipment, such as box
gums, and introduce modern and
profitable methods of bee culture.
2. To come together and educate
one another in the proper steps 20
take to build up strong colonies for
the spring honey flow, instead of
tolerating the great amoun, of win
ter dwindling and winter dying
which leaves for the spring large
numbers Of weak colonies entirely
incapable of putting across a spring
drive for the honey harvest.
3. To develop a local market for
this valuable product of our state.
4. To club together in buying bee
supplies from season to season at
the considerable saving offered by
this method.
5. To harvest the honey crop to
the best advantage and make the
proper preparation Of the product
for the market.
6. To cooperate to prevent the
introduction and spread of the no
torious brood diseases of bees which
are all about US, but which so far,
have not yet invaded our state.
z. To offer the bee specialist of
the Extension. Service of Clemson
College the necessary machinery to
get the information gained by con-
tinuous experimental and research
work directly before the bee-keep-
ers, for their best advantage.
8. To foster the planting of honey
plants, thus utilizing our waste
lands to better advantage; and to
conserve our poplars, gums, sour
wood and other great honey trees
and plants from needless waste.
The adoption of Bookkeeping as a
sole means of livelihood is of
course not recommended, but it is
urged that equipment be improved
( and methods Of bee culture be
adopted that will yield results of
profit and enjoyment when bee
keeping is prosecuted as one of the
phases of diversified agriculture OF
as side line by people in cities and
towns.
