Veteran's Officer Answers ' Question—I understand that gen erally a child must be over 18 to train under the War Orphans Edu cation Act. I already have complet ed high school, but won’t be 18 for several months. Could an exception be made in my case? Answer—Yes. If VA finds it would be in your best interest to com mence training before age 18. an exception could be made. Question—Having been discharg ed Oct. 15, 1901, after nearly three years service in the Philippines, I am drawing a pension of $101.59 monthly. Do 1 have to report my in-J come to the VA? Answer—No. A Spanish-American War veteran’s pension Is payable regardless of income. However, vet erans of later wars on the non-ser vice connected pension rolls must report their income to the VA. Question — I receive a pension from the VA. In reporting income for the past year for VA pension purposes, I don’t have to include my pension payments, do I? Answer — No. Your VA pension payments are not considered in come for purposes of your report on 1959 income. Take Part In Erskine Events Several Clinton residents were at Erskine College.

B. O'DELL, Conservationist The Laurens County Soil Conser vation District made the first de livery of pine seedlings on Tuesday of this week Apporiximately 300, 000 were received for fourteen coun ty land owners from the South Car olina State Commission of Forestry Nursery, in Pickens. The district's four tree planting machines were also put into opera tion this week A truck delivery schedule is set up by the district for a load, 300.000 per week, from now until March 15. This will keep a fresh supply of seedlings on hand throughout the planting season. Laurens County farmers will • plant the largest acreage to pines this year since tree planting began in the county, during the Civilian Cbnservation Corps days, in the mid 1930's. Applications have been made to the South Carolina State Commision of Forestry for over eight milion seedlings. Almost all of these are for Soil Bank or ACP participants. * • * Raymond Robertson of the Ora community this week began the ex cavation of a new channel for Little River which flows through his beef cattle farm five miles north of Lau rens The new channel will be 2.500 feet long. 24 feet deep, and 16 feet wide at the top. Also, approximate ly 1,000 feet of lateral drainage ditches will be cut to drain into the new stream channel. The object of the work is for flood control and drainage on 20 acres of rich bottom land The work is being done by a private contractor using a drag-1 line machine. The technicians of the Soil Con servation Service a-sisted Mr. Rob ertson with the engineering layout, the local ASC office will help with cost-sharing payment on the drain age practice Mr Robertspn plans to establish fescue grass and ladino clover on tha bottom land In commenting on the bottom land, he said: "One acre of this type of land v is worth ten of most upland.'* Most farmers , will agree that this is a very true statement Also, many farmers will agree that bottom land is rich be cause of the fact that the good land ^as washed from hillsides to the bottoms. IF YOU DON T READ THE CHRONICLE YOU DONT GET THE NEWS Phon* 74 Farmjaews Last week was the first week in several months in which farmers and an opportunity to get grain seeded, lespedeza and soybeans combined, and cotton picked. It was good to see the entire program un derway About two more weeks are needed to get in proper shape. * * * A lot of grain is being seeded Last spring at harvest time a num ber of farmers came to me about seed they had purchased as good sound seed and found out they were not what they were supposed to be. One man sowed 10 acres of fescue and w’ound up with rye grass. A number of farmers were disappoint ed with the wheat seed purchased Farmers should plant nothing but good quality seed of known ances try Blackleg has killed a large num ber of cows in Laurens County this fall Many times this disease will kill and never be reported It is wise to vaccinate for this disease. The loss of one animal will pay the cost for several vears. Several dairy farmers in the county are planning to tost their herd through DHIA. This, of course, is a wise,step. I believe production will be increased on each herd These farmers should save enough on feed to pay the expense. They will have a production and butter fat redord on each cow. This will give them accurate information to use in selecting cows and breeding for both butter fat and production. Ralph Waldrep of Laurens, Caldwell Henderson of Clinton, Lawrence Da vis and Jack Davis of Rt. 3, Clinton, R L. Wickham of Thornwell, and Erskine Jacks of Whitten Village will test. Others who are interest ed should contact the County Agent's office. Henderson Pitts of C-W-S Guano Company, is giving $100 to the champion soybean grower in the county. We have checked-those in the contest and found some very good beans Information on the win ner w ill be out in the near future, i The annual 4-R Officer-Leader banquet will be held Friday evening at the Laurens High School. Tom Rogers, 4-H Camp director and Dis-’ trict 4-H Club leader, will be the speaker. A training program for the leaders and officers will precede hte banquet. All local leaders and officers are invited. Youth organizations are invited to attend the Clemson-Wake Forest football game Saturday. This in cludes 4-H members, FFA. Boy Scouts, etc., along with their lead ers. "un a pheasant hunting trip last year, I was badly shot when a bird flew up in my di- ^ rection and another hunter fired away.
