Second year.-Small grain,-oats,
rye, barley or wheat, followed by peas,
peanuts, sweet potatoes, or sorghum
Third year.-Cotton and cover crop,
rye and vetch, oats and vetch, Grim
son clover or bur clover
Explanation-If velvet beans are
grown in the corn, they will need to
be pastured down early fro the fall
seeding of small grains. Otherwise
peanuts, sweet potatoes, Irish pota-
toes or sorghum may be planted the
following spring and the small grain
left out. Peanuts or soy beans may
be substituted for cotton in the rota-
tion as money crops.
Special note by Prof. A. +. Conradi,
State Entomologist, regarding rota-
tion No. IA cover crop should be
kept on land in this section the year
preceding cotton in order to control
the cotton root louise. Rye is recon-
mended for this purpose
No. 2.-TwO- Year Rotation.
First year.-Corn and velvet beans
or SOY beans or coWpeas.
Second year.-Cotton followed by
cover crop.
EXplanation.-Cove crops follow
ing cotton may be oats and vctch, rye
and vetch, crimson clover or bur Glow
er. Peanuts, sweet potatoes, Irish
potatoes or sorghum may be sub
stituted for partof the cotton.
No. 3.~-Four- Year Rotation.
First year.-Cotton and cover crop
of rye for plowing under.
Second year.-Corn and peas for
plowing under.
Third year.-Oats, peas for hay,
rye for cover crops.
Fourth year-Tobacco.
EXplanation.-A large amount Of
leGumes for plowing under is to be
avoided, as too much organic nitrogen
in the soil may darken the tobacco.
The cotton and corn may each be re-
peated, making this n six-year rota-
ton, if desirable.
Tobacco does not fit we'll int Ga good

ably should be grown on the best to-
bacco soil apart from the general ro-
tation for most of the farm.
Alfalfa is a good feed and cash crop
on many soils in the Pee Dee section
of South Carolina, but it is seldom
uesd in definite rotation with other
crops. Usually corn is the best crop
to follow alfalfa.
Special note by Prof. H. w. Barre,
Director of Experiment Station
Where cowpeas are used in this sec
ton, either Iron or Brabham variety
should be planted. Where wilt is pre-
sent, a wilt-rcsistant variety of cot
ton (DiXie Triumph) should be used.
On land which is badly infected
with the root knot, crops on which it
thrives should be left out of this rota-
tion and crops which are not affected
by it grown until the trouble has been
eliminated. Crop slcast affected are:
barley, soy beans (Laredo variety

SWEET POTATO STORAGE

Owners os managers OF potato cur
ing houses should get everything in
readiness for handling the crop, as it
will not be long the digging season
is on us. First Of all crates should
be purchased. In last weeks paper
published q notice from The Sweet
to get in their order for crates at
once. Do not neglect this or your
crates may cost you more than they
will now, or you may not have them
OH hand at curing time.
If the house has been used before
for storing potatoes it should be
thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
This will get rid of decay or other
disease germs that may be present
in the house. Any one of several
methods may be used. The house may
be sprayed with solutio nof BIZ
chloride of mercury at the rate of
about an ounce to five gallons of water
or a solution made by dissolving one
pound of copper sulphate in 25 gal
Ions of water.
The day before you start bringing
in potatoes, open al lyour ventilators
and dry out the house at tempera-
ture of 85 to 90 degrees.
successful curing and marketing
Of sweet potatoes begins in the field.
No agency can successfully keep and
market diseased, bruised, cut and
otherwise badly handled sweet pota-
toes.
The potatoes can be readily dug
with good two horse opener put in
the ground deep oavoid cut potatoes
In harvesting them do not pitch one
on top Of another or you will have a
bruise which will cause badly dis
colored potato and one that is difficult
to cure out properly. Handle them
carefully and you will be sepaid with
sound, bright, marketable potatoes
coming from the curing house.
Farmers expecting to store in the
commercial houses should by all
means grade their potatoes carefully
In the field. 1t will not be profitable
to store anything except number one
stock. Feed your number two's and
culls to hogs, or bank them for farm
use.
Any individual or community who
desires a field grading demonstration
may get one by notifying me at an
early date. Do not wait too late or
my time will be all taken up and I
may not get to you on time. l will
probably be able to get a marketing
agent to aid us with this work.

APPEAL OF CAPP|NS
One of Three Convicted Of Murder of
Taxi Driver
: JUSTICE GARY's WARNING
Will Take Action Against Attorneys
Who Seek to Defeat
Justice

Columbia, May 2.--In a percuriam
order handed down late this Afternoon
the State Supreme Court dismissed
the appeal of Jesse Gappins, one Of
the trio of murderers of William G.
Brazil, a young taxi-cab driver OF
this city, now under sentence Of death
in the State Penitentiary and remand
ed Gappins to the Court Of General
Sessions Of Lexington County for re-
sentence some time this month.
The two other convicted murder
ers, S. j. Kirby and G.. o. Fox have
appeals before the Supreme Court,
and Solicitor Callison, of tho Eleven
tn Judicial Circuit announced that he
shortly wohld request the court to
dismiss them also.
The appeal of Gappins was on
the grounds that the grand jury
which brought the true bill against
him was not sworn and therefore
his trial was illegal.
During the course of the argu-
ment on the case before the court,
this morning Chief Justice Eugene
B. Gary took occasion to warn at
torneys at the bar against bring
ing appeals OH trivialities in an ef-
fort to defeat justice. He said
that with the crime wave sweep
in gthe State, attorneys who take
advantage of minute technicalities
were arranging themselves with
the "forces of lawlessness."
He sal dthat when criminals from
other States are coming into
South Carolina stealing automobiles
and committing burglaries he pro-
posed to use the uttermost diligence
in granting bail ard giving them
no opportunities to defeat the law.
"It is the duty and the province
of the courts" he declared, "to do
everything in their power to see
that the fortress of the law and
the civilization Of the State are not
preached by criminal advances"
The chief justice issued a solemn
warning fro mthe bench that if it
is necessary to stop appeals on
frivolous tcchnicalities, offending at
torneys would be hailed before the
Supreme Court to answer cause as to
why they should not be disbarred as
unfit practitioners Of their profession
The killing of William G. Brazil
occurred on the highway between
Columbia and Lexington last sum-
mcr. 1t was proved at the trial
by the testimony Of the accused that
Brazcll was hired to drive Kirby,
Fox and Gappins, and that they
murdered him to gain possession of
his automobile. The brutality of
the crime an dthe CHASTITY circum-
stances surrounding it caused an
uphcavel of Indignation and several
mobs attempted to lynch the ac-
cuscd men. They were sentenced to
death by Judge Thomas S. Sease at
Lexington, but their executions
have been stayed by appeals.
The following is the order signed
by the full personnel of the court
! this afternoon, destroying the last
Hope Of Gappins:
"This is an application by the So
licitor Of the Eleventh circuit, un-
der rule No. 80, to dismiss the ap-
peal in the above stated sasc, upon
the ground that the exceptions
above are manifcstly without
merit.
