B. Sumerel Oak Grove com munity, is a successful farmer in grape production. He planted his first grape vines 12 years ago and today he has approximately two and one-half acres planted at 27 varieties of which eight varieties are brown and eight are black muscadine variety grapes. The other U 1 varieties are the long bunch grape varieties. It is a sight to see these grapes, now in the ripening stage. The muscadine vines are on well con structed trellis with cedar posts nine feet high above the ground and three feet in the ground for that determines howcomfortablQyouare ttfwinter:. andhWtnQch you SAVE on -fuel P .corner posts and line posts two i tiful plaque is on the wall in the an( j onb-half feet in the ground, hall of the Agricultural building.

Small grain is handled by ma chinery with little man labor as Barley roWcfopsT is spoken of as a "winter corn crop” in that. it is 97 per cent in feed value to corn and is produced in early fall in that mildew is bad during winter and early spring month?. Barley should be planted on late planted barley. Oats plant ed by October 15 and wheat plant ed at such time to not come up be fore a kiling frost as the Hessian fly will damage the plant. Fall seeded small ~ grain also forms a “blanket of green” and prevents washing of soil during wmter rains. Oats turned under next spring as a green manure cov er crop would be a good soil build ing practice in adding humus to There are six barbed wires for the trellis. The vines are set 15 feet by 15 feet. The long grape varieties are planted 10 feet by 15 feet and the vines are on a three-wire trellis supported by cedar posts. Mr. Sumerel has an abundance of grapes during the months, August, September and October* The grapes are used for the home, iroends- and .auwkeL is well cultivated and properly pruned. Many farm homes in Laurens county have no muscadine grapes, nor pecans. The fall of the year after killing frosts is the time to set vines and trees.
