so much service
so little cost
H. D. Payne & Company
usually has to gradually come from
further south. And when rather se
vere winters extend on down there
it is knocked back so far that it only
gets back up this far by late summer
or fall.
Now, this is something new for us,
to start the summer off with a liberal
supply of the pest already here. And
our bug man, Carl Nettles, tells us
of troubles to come as a consequence, i
And he says we had just as well get I
a supply of that material the gover- ;
nment has worked up for treating
livestock wounds with: It comes in t
two sorts. They are called Smear 62
and Smear 82. It fs likely in stock
locally. Ask your county agent who
i handles it nearest you.
This material is ysed both for
treating wounds that have become in
fested with screwworms and for
coating new wounds to keep the pest
out.
All Together
The fertilizer folks of the state are
meeting at Clemson July 12-13. This
j includes the manufacturers, dealers,
i and sal^men.
1 They have decided that their en
tire program of lectures, discussions,
and tours will hinge on the subpects
of pastures and corn.
This is in tune with the* times in
South Carolina. A few years ago the
“Clemson Plan” for producing corn
and pastures was carried from the
proven experiment to the field dem
onstration in all counties by the
county agents. The SCS men aided
Ja lot with the latter, and the teach-
Jers of-agriculture instilled both ideas
[into the youth in their classes,
i And the fertilizer folks too are an
important part of this modern awak
ening. And they show their interest
by scheduling an entire annual meet
ing to a consideration of grass and
corn in the new light.
Working together like that hastens
results.
Farm Safety
The 4-H girls,' as well as the boys,
are participating In the farm safety
program. Movies shows by thfe coun
ty agents and programs carried out
in their regular 4-H meetings point
out common hazards on the farms.
In Marion county 108 4-H girls
located and corrected 852 accident
hazards on their home farms. Many
of the simple things that could easily -
lead to serious farm accidents hah
never occurred to them until they
were pointed out in the movie and
in their Club meetings. They went
about correcting them.
All 4-H clubs have a similar pro
gram of farm safety. And the boys
and girls are further taught it at
their summer camps beginning now
soon.
Boys Are That Way
It was about the first of June, and
on a Saturday afternoon Lattikoo was
playing our team, Spring Hill. We
took our baseball seriously, and a
big crowd, perhaps 100 folks were
out for it. It was staged down in our!
pasture, as usual. And Zeke, my lit- ■
tie colored playmate, and I were !
minding the break in the rail fence
so the cows wouldn’t get out.
About the seventh . inning, we.
heard a commotion down there on I
the field and left our post and drift- |
ed down there to see what it was. j
What had happened was this. It
was the second game of the season
and they hadn’t gotten the weeds
trampled down much. They got Cous
in Bob trapped between first and
second base. He was the fastest thing
on our team. He played back and
forth, as they pitched the ball from
one to the other, trying to catch
him. The first baseman juggled the
ball a bit and Cousin Bob, as quick
as a flash, lit out and slid Into
what he thought was second base.
Well sir, that all but ended the
game. When I got down there he was
over there in the ditch back of first
base washing off a bit in a water
hole. it
i While this was happening the
cows were down eating the corn.
Most of the folks left the game and
helped drive them back. I was run
ning around the edge of the field
to head them off and stepped on a
thorn. Cousin Ed cut it out of my
tough foot with the sharp knife he
always kept, and someone peeled a
leaf of tobacco from. their plug and
slapped that over it, tied it with
a handkerchief and all was well.
After the game was over we fixed
the fence back and all went home
feeling that we had had a better
than usual Saturday afternoon out
