IP TOO DOMT READ THE CHRONICLE TOO DON'T GET THE NEWS PHONE 333-9641 FARM MESSAGE Farmers should take a careful look at what Washington is plan ning for their future, then tell their congressmen whether they approve. President Kennedy's market supply management proposal sent to Congress recently is both complicated and far-reaching in the effect it would have, if adopt ed, on both farmers and city con sumers. The heart of the proposal is that producers of each farm com modity should be allowed to choose the kind of a program they want and then, if Congress doesn’t disapprove, put it into ef fect. The course proposed for farm ers in the future differs substan tially from that advocated by the previous administration in that it calls for strong action to con trol production and raise farm prices. FARMER COMMITTEES Under the Kennedy plan grow ers of each farm commodity would elect members of a com mittee which would, with the co operation of the Secretary of Ag riculture, draft a program apply ing to their commodity. The program would then be submitted to growers in a ref erendum and, if approved by two- thirds of those voting, it would go into effect unless disapprov ed by the Senate or the House within 60 days. The president asked Congress to amend present farm laws to permit each of the farmer-elected committees to choose just about whatever kind of a program they wanted. He suggested that programs available to the committees in clude individual farmer market ing quotas, in bushels, pounds or bales. Or, if they preferred, pro duction could be limited through acreage allotments. Other methods available for improving farm income would In clude direct, so-called “compen- sary” payments; price support loans or purchases; in-kind pay ments for land diverted to soil conservation, or “incentive” pay ments for taking land out of cul tivation. BARGAINING power The main objective of the farm proposal, Mr. Kennedy explained. would be to give farmers, with government backing, the power to act collectively in establishing fair prices for what they produce. This is a power now guaranteed by Federal laws to labor unions, which bargain collectively to set wage scales. Industry seeks to protect its prices through the fair trade practice laws. But, farmers’ power to set prices would be limited, Mr. Ken nedy declared, by disapproval of any program which would “ex ploit the consumer." Prices, he said, must be fair to both pro ducers and consumers. Whether Congress approves the President’s plan almost certainly will be decided by what congress men hear from the voters back home. In a democracy that is the way it should be. now serves as president of the institution. Leaving BJU and taking the Asheville highway (U. S. 25 North), one drives a few miles and soon arrives at another cam pus. Furman University has oc cupied this new home only since 1958, but Furman itself is a name that has been known in the educational circles of South Carolina for 135 years. Furman is a Baptist school, support coming from the church es in the South Carolina Baptist Convention and the Southern Baptist denomination. While on the campus, you may marvel over the natural beauty of the landscape and the architec tural beauty of the buildings, but if you want to deive into a little historical atmosphere, drive around the lake and over to “Rock House’’—built early in the 19th century for Capt. Billy Young, a hero of the Revolution ary War and a member of Gen eral Francis Marion's band. The “Swamp Fox” hero called Young the “Terror of the To ries.” Also nearby is a historic stage- , MARTHA JOAN REEDER Miss Martha Joan Reeder', daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Reeder, Is a graduate of Fur man University. She received a BA degree, having majored in economics and business ad ministration and minored In secretarial science. While at Forman she was ac tive in campus affairs and was a member of the hoaae board one year, serving as president of her dormitory. Halls of knowledge have taken on new shapes. At least, this is true in two universities located near Greenville. Few cities the size of Green ville can brag that they have lo cated in their metropolitan areas two institutions of such caliber as Furman and Bob Jones Uni versities. If you are traveling in the vi cinity of Greenville—and thou sands upon thousands do annual ly—it will pay you to drive through these two centers of learning. Bob Jones University estab lished its campus just east of; Greenville’s business district on the Spartanburg highway. It! moved into the campus in 1948. The buildings at BJU have fu turistic design though the educa tors within the walls of this in stitution stress basic Christian faith. BJU is a non-denomination chritian institution. It is called the "World’s Most Unusual Uni versity" by educational and church leaders, because of its combination of evangelism, cul ture, high academic standards and Christian discipline. Total assets, including build ings and equipment, are valued at more than $22 million. To the original plant, which included classrooms, dormitories, admin istration offices and auditorium, have been added the “Unusual Films" studio. Radio Station WMUU, fine arts building, sci ence and home economics build ing, concert center, gymnasium, hospital, and academy for high school students and laboratory buildings. If you are a lover of fine arts, you should park your car and ramble through the fine arts building. Here is housed one of the finest collections of Sacred Art in the Southeast. The BJU collection includes works of Flemish, Dutch, German, Italian, French, and Spanish painting from the 8th through the 18th cen turies. The new BJU campus is a far cry from the old Bob Jones Col lege campus at Cleveland, Tenn. The achievement was considered one of the most remarkable in this era among Christian leaders —crossing state boundaries to re establish a school of long-time standing and enlarge it from a college to a university. BJU’s founder, Dr. Bob Jones, Sr., still serves in an advisory capacity on the school’s board of directors. His son. Bob, Jr„ This was known as the last pause for northbound passengers be fore the steep climb along the Buncombe Road into the Blue Ridge Mountains. More than $10 million will have been spent on the Furman Uni versity campus when a chapel building now under construction is completed. Thus, millions of dollars are being spent for untold numbers of students who will parade through the halls of eith er Bob Jones University or Fur man University. You would do well to spend a little time to visit these growing institutions. Plan a trip now to Greenville. OFFICE SUPPLIES CHRONICLE PUB. CO. PHONE 8334541 Conservation Notes By J. B. O'DELL, Forty-six pond owners in Lau rens County received 7,500 large- mouth bass several weeks* ago for the initial stocking of their fertilized ponds. The fish were delivered by the Fish and Wild life Service and were grown in the Federal Fish Hatchery at Or angeburg. The majority of these farmers received cost-sharing payments through the Agricultural Stabili zation and Conservation Service in the construction of their ponds. Livestock watering ponds to per mit the rotation of grazing and ir rigation ponds are the two types of ponds that are eligible for cost sharing help. The Soil Conserva tion Service furnished technical assistance in the survey and lay out of these ponds^ The new pond owners who re ceived fish are as follows: Bennie B. Blakely, Tullie Blackwell, C. C. Brissey, Ted Brissey, R. R. Burns, Roscoe Bundrick, Wade Cox, E. F. Coggins, C. W. Cren shaw, Watts Davis, H. B. Harlan, J. S. Hendricks, C. C. Herbert, L. F. Hall, J. B. Hunter, Miles Hunter, A.

Sullivan of Lexington, is planning to improve some more woodland on his 150-acre farm In the Madden section. He has re ceived ASC cost-sharing approval for the treatment of 25 acres by killing undesirable hardwoods that interfere with the growth of young pine*. The Laurens Soil Conservation District will help him with this job of woodland weeding. Tree injectors with 2-4- 5-T chemicals will be used in kill ing the weed trees. Mr. Sullivan is a South Caro lina tree farmer Thjs means that he is managing his woodlands properly for the continuing growth of forest crops for com- j mercial purposes. The basic requirements for a tree farmer are: 1. Protect woods from wild fire, insects, disease, and over-grazing. 2. Harvest trees when mature or ready for thinning. 3. Plant trees on idle acres.
