With favorable weather that is a dry summer—it is pus ibl . to accomplish this goal, but the be -t Way to do it is to “build farms.”. Bv this we not only mean to improve th farms we hav^.by a more livrcn use of fertiliser, but there are thou sands of acres lying idle which should be cleared and improved. To do this we need more farm hoipe; and nior > farmers. There are hundreds of goo 1 v 4 white families in South Carolina and Georgia who have been discouraged by the weevil ravages in their section Who would gladly come to Cleveland and ’deittify themselves'with the fan > i ing life of our community, if the > were told of the farm ng pos-ibilitle * , here and our supposed immunity frbrn »• •* the worst of the weevil ravages. Lm 1 ^ year we had approximately 42,09” In cotton and made nearly 39,000 - bales—a record which comes only s> . * little short of a bale to the acre. *■ . With facts like these and \v‘t’\ th >" . sands of acres in the coun’ v that cj>-> be cleared and deveioned into a h:"h ”/7 state of cultivation, there is ampl < n . room for more good substantial whteb farmers throuhg whose veins flow pure Anglo-Saxon blood. This sugges tion on our part is something wh V should engage the attention of th > * newly formed agricultrul association and the Kiwanis club and is a means v in our opinion of producing 50,00' bales of cotton during 1924.

Advanced Registry Test ! “N’n one thin?; has done so much to ! increase the productivity of pure bred j dairy cattle in New Jersey as advanced registry testing,” says \V. It. Itohbers. dairy expert at the agricultural ex periment station, New Brunswlcki “The average production of all cows has been given by the United States census ns 4,000 pounds of milk n year. Pure bred herds under the advanced registry testa soon develop cows which produce twice that amount of milk without additional feed cost. “Core in the management of cows .Increases their productive capacity. It is the care incidental to advanced reg istry testing which often results In the cow doing much bolter during her sec ond testing period than her first. “By means of these tests and the records kept the hopelessly unproduc tive cows arc detected so that the dairyman can eliminate them from the herd. "It has long been recognized that the bull Is the most important factor In improving the herd. Through ad vanced registry If is possible for Ihe dairyman to observe whether or not the daughters of the bull are better than their dams. In tills way superior bulls are discovered and are chosen to raise the standard of the herd. “The advisory experts maintained by the department of dairy htishupdry at the. State College of Agriculture, New Brunswick, are always glad to answer questions on advanced registry or any other phase of dairying.” Feeding Test Made With Corn Silage and Fodder The dairy cow has long found favor because she is aide to convert large quantities of bulky roughage into a Concentrated and highly nutritious product. There are, however', certain roughages on which a cow produces much better. As the business of dairy ing is to produce milk profitably rather than merely to convert fodder into milk, a comparison of the Common farm roughages is valuable. A careful feeding test was made at the Iowa experiment station with corn silage and fodder, alfalfa and timothy hay, and a combination of corn fodder and timothy hay. The use of corn fodder in place of corn silage reduced the milk produc tion G per cent, and the fat produc tion 3 per cent. When silage is worth •ID. 50 n tan, an acre o? corn yielding eight tons. If converted into silage, is worth Slid, while if converted into fod der the value is reduced to $10,21. When alfalfa 'hay was replaced by timothy la a good dairy ration, milk and butterfut production was reduced 7 per cent. When both alfalfa liaj and silage were replaced at the same time by fodder and timothy buy, the milk yield dropped IS per cent an 1 fat 11 per cent. If possible get the corn crop In the silo. Timothy hay shoo'd he old and clover or alfalfa bought to take Its place. Wash Milk Cans Clean. The cleansing of milk vessels is best done by tl: t rinsing* them In cold or lukewarm water to remove the urilk after which they should be scrubbed with a brush Inside and out. Use hot water and washing powder and then rinse in clean, hot water. Show Up Poor Cows. Almost any cow can make a profit on pasture, but the feeding of grain and roughage indoors soon shows up the pw>r ones in dairy-improvement records. TRY STAR WANT ADS. i ANSON IS CONSIDERIN'!; ORGANIZING FOR A FAIR The organization of a county fair is being strongly urged in Anson. It is believed Anson county could have ni ■ of the best fairs in the state. It a leading agriculture county and is ’■> ginning to take an interest in nian ifacturing enterprises of different .'nils. The idea of a county fair re ■ iverf endorsement at t he community ' i;. s held last fall in that county, and he'project is being strongly set forth y the chamber of commerce. Tost* have shown tIniT rapidity 1» one of the essentials in milking a cow. Massaging the cow's udder with the hand excites nervous action which In turn stimulates action of the milk glands. The more rapid the massage movements, the greater Is the nervous stimulation of gland action, and a greater amount of milk 'will he yield ed. Not only is the quantity of milk increased, but the faster the milk Is drawn the richer it is m butt erf at. i*l iil lCATlON OF Si SIMONS. Action f »r Alimony. ::t'l'e O.
