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

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.

ness’’ in South Carolina, you are
