Both diseases may be pre vented by vaccination. Harry Mc Cord, Youngs community, reports that he has lost three. Several farm ers in the Greenpond community have reported losing cattle Lespedesa Seed Scarce All reports indicate that lespe deza seed is scarce in Laurens have had in several years insofar as hay is concerned. The failure to form seed was probably due to poor pollination. Farmers that have seed should have them cleaned as soon as they are cut and a germination and purity test run. Store the seed in a rat-proof place if posible. Rat Control Campaign A state-wide rat control campaign is underway. You will receive a let ter this week telling you where you can buy rat bait at a reduced price. Let’s all make an effort to clean Laurens county of this killer Dairy Meeting A county-wide dairy meeting is scheduled for Thursday evening at 7:30 at the Agricultural Building in Laurens. C. J. Cushman and Dr. Victor Hurst will be our speakers. This meeting is scheduled to htlp clear up a lot of questions on breed ing problems, and also to give you information on a sound breeding program. It shouldn’t last too long, so make plans now to attend. 4-H Achievement Day Saturday, November 15, at 10:00 a. m. is the date and time of the Laurens County 4-H Achievement Day. All 4-H members, leaders, and parents are invited. State, District and county winners will be recog nized for their 4-H work during 1958. Dairy club members will re ceive their premium money won at the various fairs this fall. All told the Dairy Club won more than $4,000 showing their animals.

Wheat Sewing Time 1 wonder how .nany fanners in Laurens County have had a germt nation and purity test of seed wheat which is to be sown within the next thirty days The records show that about 16 per cent of the farm ers have taken advantage of the free service in the past The mar gin of profit is so rn^U that notn mg should be left uixlone to tnour« a good stand It is too late this year if you have not already done so However, you can make certain that your seed are treated The varieties for the County Ronger Colls For Caution WiHi Fire "Weather reports indicate that we are approaching a dangerous period and can be suppressed only with great effort," County Ranger Tom when woods fires can start easily Hill of the State Commission on For estry said yesterday. _ - People of the county are requested to be especially careful with fire until rain relieves the critically dry situation. Farmers and other land owners are urged to postpone burn ing of fields, ditch j>anks, or brush piles. Hunters are cautioned to be careful with matches, cigarettes and any fire in or near the woods Motorists are reminded use ash trays for matches and cigarette butts. Carelessly caused fires take a heavy toll of valuable timber each year, according to Ranger Hill.

Cattle Sale The J. T. Addison cattle sales at Joanna was a success. Young bulls and heifers were offered. Forty-nine of these calves sold for more than $10,000. Laurens County producers bought most of the cattle. However, a number went to Chesterfield, Fairfield. McCormick and adjoining counties. This was the third cattle sale of the year in the county. Law- son Brothers of the Hopewell sec tion, and P. S. Bailey of Creekland Farms, held the other two sales. Artiflcal Breeding Association A record number of cows for one day was bred several days ago. Before the day was over eighteen cows were bred James Jacks, ser vice man for the association, has been on the go with ten to fifteen cows a day for the last ten days. It has been proven over and over that good milk cows cannot be bought too often, ahd the cheapest way out is to raise them However, breeding alone will not solve the dairymen’s problems He must raise a fast-growing healthy calf It is true that a good big cow pro duces more milk and profit than a good little row. in that she can con vert more low-cost roughages to milk According to the South Caro lina Dairy Association, labor consti tutes from 20 to 30 per cent of the cost of milk production. Labor ef ficiency is increased with the size of the herd up to 50 cows Beyond this, little change is noticed A minimum of 150.000 pounds of milk should be produced per man year The average for South Carolina is 85.256 pounds per man yaar Dairy Mretteg MaaarU A dairy meeting has been planned for November 13 at the Agncuhural Building in Laurea* Dr Victor Hunt and C G.

O’DFU , CsnservaUsnM John Earle Smith of Rt 1, Ki ns rds. has planted approximately 20 acres of fescue and ladino clover Mr Smith's method is to prepare a firm seed bed. ipply 500 pounds of 4-12-12 or the equivalent at fhr time of planting, seed 25 pounds of fescue and 1 to 2 pounds of ladino clover. A grain drill was used for the seeding job Also a ton of lime per acre was applied ahead of land preparation. Mr. Smith said that fescue does best on the heavier productive types of soil, land that will produce at least a bale of cotton per acre or 40 to 50 bushels of corn Deep sandy soil is not suitable for this crop under any conditions. This year Mr Smith had five ocres of cotton that was grown on land that had been in fe-scue and la dino clover for five years. The es timated yield on this land was 1 1-2 bales per acre as compared to one bale per acre on land which the usual rotation of grain and row crops was used. T like the idea of grass rotations and plan to do more of it in the future,” Mr Smith states "It will fit. wetl into my type of farming as I am now plant ing fewer row crops and more and more pastures,” he explained WISH McDAMFl.
