Miss FARM EFFICIENCY Wallace’s Farmer remarks ‘ Production per farm worker is up 50/. ,in the past 10 years. In industry if is up 35 per cent. But they got paid for it.” How true! It really sometimes looks like the farmeris efficiency is the means of his undoing. Yet about the most necessary thing there is is the food and fiber he grows. And it does seem a pity when he provides these essential? well, he usually has to suffer Most other groups can produce pretty accurately to fill the need, just enough to hold their price in line. They will shut down a while, if necessary’, to hold their ground. Now, we know, the farmer can't do that, for various reasons. One of w hich is the weather. V Even the gentle, life-giving show er on the dry land can hurt the farmer in his pocketbook. Note the early summer headline in a Chicago paper, "Showers Send Wheat Prices down.” In a sense, farming is everybody’s business. For that which we eat and wear comes mainly from there Most other groups get a measure of protectiorj through tariffs, wage guarantees, federal grants or ‘‘write-offs." etc With that they are aided in keeping up their Ameri can standard of living. Now, the farm programs are aimed at giving the man w ho farms something of the sort. too. For just about every sur vey shows his buying power needs some sort of "unearned” dollar, too. * .*. * EARLY FALL GRAZING PAYS | Have you seeded any fall and win-j ter grazing yet? Unless you get it| in and up early, you won’t usually have much until spring. For we must get ft well rooted and estab lished before cold weather comes and largely puts a stop to such growth. good. F6r you can seed it in the dust, from which it would not other wise come up, and shoot a little wa ter to it and h a v e it up in a jiffy. And then it’s ready to shout when the first shower or additional irri gation hits it. If you are not established in this winter grazing business, ask your county agent or successful neigh bors w hat seedings are best for your area. We have both advantages aifid disadvantages for li v e s t o c k here. One of our greatest advan- LAURENS PASTURES AND PEPPERS With good spring and early sum mer rains, County Agent Cannon tells me Laurens had fine early pas tures this time. Some cut hay from them and many others just let the long shaggy growth accumulate there for the winter and times of drought. During recent dry weather there this sure came in good. Farmers there also grew 180 acres of pimiento peppers on con tract for a Georgia firm, too. • • • tages that we need to push hard is the long growing season that cattle' BOYS ARE THAT WAY can graze. But that season alones does not give it to us. We must plan, plant, fertilize, and manage graz ing right to cash in from it. Yes, our advantage for livestock at least put us on an equal footing with other regions; many think they put us ahead. But we have to fully develop them before they count. In every county there are some who have already learned how to do that. The county agents and other agency workers will likely be conducting tours to see this. Let’s join ’em and learn. For growing granng is rath er new with us. We must master it. Then our cattle business will look better and better. I’ve been telling you of that goat; my most prized possession as I grew up in the Stone Hills of the Dutch Fork. As he got older he got mean to all except me, and he’d chase the other kids. Our house was high en ough off the ground so when I went in it he went under it. There he could watch the steps and I couldn’t get away from him. Our creek was a mile down the hill from home. Although he didn’t like water, my goat just had to go everywhere with us. So he joined us on our daily summer excursions to the creek. He was so annoying to the other boys and kept after them so, they walked out in the woods • piece, and the goat and I walked majestically down the foot path together. When we'd all get in the water, he would bleat on the bank and go from one side to the other, trying to keep closer to us. Occasionally sev eral of ^►dlarger boys would hem him up, drag him to the very wa ter’s edge and give him a shove. Al though our swimming hole there in a curve of the creek was about 30 fget across, when he saw he was .going in anyway, he’d crook his back and give one mighty lunge and try to jump it. That landed him about 10 feet out, in the deepest part. Then he’d swim desperately for the shallow bank, go out in a sunny spot, shake himself, and keep hrs distance for awhile. But each time we returned, he seemed to have forgotten and got trapped there on the bank again WE PAY 0 0 Writ" or C.ill for Informdtion Toduy!
