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.

Conservation
Notes
By J. 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.

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. My medical ex
penses were $340. Would a
Hunting Trip Accident Policy
have cost only about $5?’’

Safe Drivers Insurance
Many have asked why safe drivers cannot'get insur
ance cheaper than they do. Well, now you can. The Cen
tennial Insurance Company has a policy designed strict
ly for safe drivers. The policy has $1,000.00 Medical
Payments included with the price. The policy is designed
to give you more protection for your money. You get a
single limit of .$25,000.00, $40,000.00 and so on up to
$1,000,000.00.
With the 10-20-5 policy you still are left in the hole
if someone sues you for more than the person limit of
$10,000.00. Centennial gives you 21-2 times this amount,
or 11•> times the per accident coverage and 5 times the
property damage limit. W’ith this broader coverage you
still get a low, low price for your insurance. In most
cases the co^t is only $18.75 for six months. Let us show
you what you get fen* this low cost.
