FARM EQUIPMENT PUTS - DILLARD Implement Company Phone 91-R AMERICA’S BIGGEST COLA VALUE! theyt will soon know it. Good Roads And Grass Good Roads! I go around a lot. Have been im pressed with the fact Jhat good roads cover our state better than any other that I have ridden about in. * gl And now the so-called “farm-to- $ i market roads” are rapidly coming m ' out of the mud too. Many a dim by- | road of a few years back now looks y like main street. And others are booked for this renovation that will j.; make farm life better along them. *•* The mile-stretches of just about year-around green will likely at tract stray stock in the winter w’hen ! natural grazing is scarce. We will 1 have to watch out about that. But J similar greenery is fast finding its way to the prepared pastures over the state. And many a farm is now getting some of its finest grazing during the winter months from fes cue and the clovers. So now maybe we won’t have so many cattle breaJung out of the old winter exercising grounds that we used to call pastures to get to these green spots by the roadside. For hundreds of farmers saw the won derful winter grazing that’s possible here on the recent state tour to six counties in different parts of the state. And many went on their county tours too. To walk silent ly into lush greenery in mid-winter tells its own slory. And that will car ry good pastures to many addition al farms by thd time the days get short again. Clemson's new Extension Circular 345, "Tall Fescue.” tell the story of how to have “June grazing in Jan uary”. It’s free at your county agent’s office. Boys Are That Way I’m going to ride on an engine! Have always wanted to, but never thought the chance would come. But now it hafe, and I'm as thrilled as a kid. Where is there a boy who ever saw an engine that didn’t dream of riding one! The first one I ever-saw was old number “1”, a^tiny wood burner of the C.N. & L. Ry. that passed within tw'o miles of our place in the Stone Rills of the Dutch Fork on its way from Columbia to Laurens. I say "tiny" now. But it didn’t look that way then. It was the biggest and most frightening thing I had ev er seen. I thought folks stood too close to it when it came in to our flag stop at White Rock. And I’d hide my face in my mother’s skirt, as the monster ground its brakes to a stop for us. It took us to. Columbia in an hour, 18 miles away. And, boys, that was flying. Parents always held our coat tails as We leaned out of the windows to see those drivers roll. And on the curves we could see our idol, old Bil ly Graham the engineer, playing tunes on the whistle that thrilled us to the core. They usually carried flaxseed along to go4. ejnders out of our eyes with. ' As time want on I saw bigger en gines. And they have carried their thrill right on through the years. I said something about this a few weeks ago. I was just beating the air, never thinking anything would come of it. The day after it was pub lished Bob Mellette of the Atlantic Coast Line called and said my boy hood ambition could be realized. He had gotten permission from the pres ident of the road for me to ride the fastest■ enginesl^Wow! What a sur prise that was. And a thrill too. So now soon this countryman will mount a heavy freight engine. I want to see it snort and slip and pound the rails with a great load. Then I’ll get on a fast diesel, that burns up the rdils with its human cargo, and come back. But the good time will not be over then. For I want to tell you about it. And what a subject I will have!
