v l t Eight m THE CLINTON CHRONICLE &«■ ^SyJ I 1 , —1 AfeMS lND FOLKS Br 4 M. ELEAZER Clemson Extension Information 1 Specialist U r agent at Florence when he went to war. When he came back he heard the call of the farm. Now he is one of the leading young farmers of the state. Ed told me he is going to fully mechanize cot ton or quit with it. Planting and culture have already been mechan ized on his farm. He is trying out pre-emerge weed killers, flame weed control, and also has a me chanical picker. He feels that hand work is out for him. He will “me chanize it or quit with cotton,” hP said. And I’m believing if any body can do that job, Ed will. * . Boys Are That Way Childhood’s little trag^oies often become some of our most cherished memories. Like, for instance: When I tried to fly by jumping off the well shed with an out stretched sheet, as the flying squir rel did, and spraining my ankle bad. i" Like when Greem, our colored boy, on horseback, was chasing our prized milk cow to water, the horse stepped on the chain of the fast running cow, tripping "her, and breaking her neck. Or like when ^Cousin Bob slid into what he thought was second base while playing ball down there in the high weeds of the pas ture, as Zeke and I were minding the break there in the o 1 d rail fence, the ladies all blushed and talked in low tones, and the men laughed so you could hear ’em a half mile. And it was awful embarrassing when my cousin from the city ask ed the girl sitting by her at Sunday school who that funny looking lit tle country boy was sitting across from them and she replied, “That’s my brother.” We were warned not to snicker about the enormous nose of a visi tor that was coming, and at the first meal my sister, trying to be so nice, passed him the rice and then the gravy saying, "Won't you r.o, wwat *»« anythin, mTn ££ £ i “ta? ““g grace, started out od derway good here.

Hail The Hen We have"" made great progress with cattle and hogs in recent years in South Carolina. Yet with poul try we have done even more. Our cash farm marketings of chickens, eggs, and 'turkeys practically equais the dollar value of all cattle, calves and hogs sold. This income from poultry practically doubles that from our growing dairy industry. And it is considerably more than our total income from dair? prod ucts and all cattle sales. So, all hail to the hen? Quietly, with just an occasional cackle, she performs her great pur pose here And from what I see as I ride with county agents, w*e are just entering our greatest growth with poultry. I see those long broiler jfnd laying houses going up at newr places every time I pass. Ever/now and then I see a great of turkeys at a new place: We already led the Southeast by a ide margin in this particular, ^nd here and there I see new poul try dressing and storage plants op ening up, not only in towns but of ten out m the open country where the stuff is grown. Many years ago Mr. Barney Ba ruch gave Clemson $25,000 for a poultry plant. Since then it has been more than doubled with its own earnings. And it serves as a teaching aid here at the college and as a source of poultry information for use over the state. The Exten sion service has 3 poultry special ists and two turkey specialists who are constantly in the field helping growers protect and promote the industry in our midst. And com mercial companies have experts in the field too, who help with certain phases of the poultry business here. The 4-H clubs have majored in poultry projects for years. The 100 chicks furnished by Sears-Jtoebuck to hundreds of 4-H boys and girls have been the foundation for many a farm poultry business that now thrives.
