FALL IRISH POTATOES. II is about time to begin ? thinking about those Fall Irish potatoes if you are going to riant them, and the Lookout Mountain is especially recom menced. " These potatoes should be planted during the last half of July. Rich loose, reasonably moist, but well drained soil is best for your po tatoes. Use more care as to the kind of fertilizer, than the amount. Commerical fertiliz er such as is used for cotton or corn, possibly increasing . the potash a little and decreasing the nitrogen a little'. ' The fer tilizer should be well mixed with the soil, to' prevent it from burning the potatoes. Stable manure if not well rotted will cause the potatoes to be rough and scabby. It is better to cut the potatoes in larger pieces than in the spring on account of the dry hot summer weather and plow the land at-least 6 or 8 inches deep. Cutting potatoes just before plowing to keep/ them from dying out and plant ing right after the plow; giv ing the potatoes advantage of the moist soil and pressing thiem in with your hand or foot will make the soil firm around the potato and give you a bet ter stand. o See That Your Bees Have Plenty of Ventilation. If the bees cluster on the out side of the hive, it is rearly al ways a rule that they haven't the proper ventilation or are too crowded. To remedy this put on a super with full sheets of foundation, or slightly raise the hive off the bottom board with little blocks to give the bees plenty of air. The new honey is better protected from the hot sun if the hive is in the shade. THE ALFALFA PLOT. . If you are* planning for an Alfalfa Plot to be planted this fall, now is the time to prepare i the soil, and the sccret of sue- j eessful ^alfalfa - growing in j South Carolina is# the preparing of the land before planting, - In South Carolina we have the" following obstacles to over come to successfully grow al falfa, as stated by R. W. Hamil ton, extension^ Agronomist: (1) 'insufficient lime (2) insufficient organic matter (3) lack of in* 'oculation (4) shallow topsoil (5) noxious weeds and grasses An efficient xway to overcome these obstacles is growing le gumes, which will help to -fur nish te inoculation and organic" matter. Lime 7&nd Phosphoric* acid should be ' used o*K the legume and stable manure if any fa used. In this way you ? will get your land supplieswith lime, organic . matter and mineral matter and if the land is plow ed deep the plot is in good eon- j dition for alfalfa. We have several nice alfalfa plots around ' Landrum and ! when J;he plots were judged recently, the obstacle -of the lack t)f preparation and inocola tion and minerals was v^ry pre valent. Alfalfa is . really a special crop with us and it re quires special information and special work and care and if you are not really going to be a sjeci^list, growing alfalfa . is not going to be a paying pro position here. >?s3b?*w&v *a Princess Theatre SALUDA, N.
