ODELL , ThomweU orphanage farm at Clinton baa recently completed the construction of three stock watering ponds. The fourth pond is being planned. The Soil Con servation Service gave assistance; in surveying the ponds, which were constructed with the or phanage bulldocer. Bob Wickham, farm manager, said, “waer for the cows on the faitn was very scarce during the drought last year. These ponds wil solve that problem and also will enable us to use a rotation system of grazing more effec tively.” • • • Carl Smith of the Sandy Springs section planted three ac res of coastal bermuda grass last week. Other farmers who will plant this new grass (his week, if weather permits, are: Carroll W. Copeland, Clinton; Carl Crisp, Mountville; Mr. Bradshaw, White Plains, Cross Hill; and J. R. Adair, Laurens. AU these fanners plan to use the District’s automatic bermuda planter for planting the grass. • • • H. J. Pitta of Clinton, is hav ing 15,000 feet of terraces con structed on his farm 6 miles east of Clinton. Abo A C. Young near Hurri cane church, is having terraces conatructed this week. Both of these farmers are having the Dis trict’s terracing machine to build the terraces and are using cost sharing payments through the local ASC office to help pay the cost of the work. • • • Lucius H. Burns is buidmg a second irrigation pond on his farm near Mountville. His first pond, which was built during January, will supply approxi mately 40 acre feat of irrigation water. The secnod pond will furnish enough water to enable Mr. Burns to irrigate some 12 to 15 acres of good, level, productive land which lias along the road near (he farm home. Technical assistance on both the ponds and the plan for the irrigation system was given Mr. Bums by the Soil Conservation Henry Harlan of LanforO, has Service through the district. completed the planting of 5,000 multi-flora rose seedlings which within a few years will provide approximately a mile of living fence. The rose seedlings were fur nished through the district by the South Carolina Wildlife Re sources Department. Mr. Harlan hat planted multi flora rose for the past' several years. He already has rose fences established on his farm that will keep both livestock and soil within their boundaries. As compared with the usual fence, the living fence of muti- flora rose b « thing of bating beauty. In the spring it carries masses of white blooms; in the winter its red fruits brighten the fields and furnishes feed and cover for wildlife. • • • Joe R. Adair of near Laurens, planted three acres of coastal bermuda grass last week. He used the district’s bermuda pbnter for the operation. Mr. Adair secured his stolons from a nearby farmer who estab lished a mother patch last year from certified stolons obtained through the County Agent’s of fice. By next year Laurens county farmers will have an ample sup ply of locally grown'coasta ber muda stolons. This will be a big help in the establishment of this new drought-resistant grass on more farms over the county. • • • T. P. and D. E. Brown, dairy men of Rt. 2, Laurens, were planting kudzu seed bst week. They were re-planting an area on which they failed to get a good stand last year due to the drought They have approximately 75 acres of kudzu planted on their dairy farm to be used as supple mental grazing when other pas tures are low. The majority of this kudzu was printed with kudzu seed, planted directly in the field. This is a new method of planting kud zu in this section. They like it better than the method of plant ing kudzu crowns or seedlings. The Browns are one of the pi oneers in irrigation in Laurens county. They believe in irrigat- ng the right crops on the right land. They also believe in grow-' ing kudzu on poor hillbides for grazing during droughts.
