Workman Announces
Congress Candidacy
James W. Workman, 46-year-
old attorney of Union, has an
nounced he will be acandidate for
Congress from the South Carolina
Fourth District, which includes
the counties of Spartanburg,
Greenville. Laurens and Union, in
the 1961 elections
The seat is now held by Con
gressman Robert C. Ashmore of
Greenville.
Mr. Workman, a native of Cross
Anchor, is the son of the late Dr.
C. M. Workman and Lillian Wil
son Workman. He attended Pres
byterian College for one year and
is a graduate of Furman Univer
sity. He received his law degree
from the University of South
Carolina in 1939. He was a naval
officer in World War II, and is
a member of the Baptist Church.
Farmers with young cotton can
make a good crop if they will
keep the weevils out. We’ll have
proof of this, too, as some farm-
I ers are staying with it and keep
ing the weevils out.
You may not believe It, but
we have cotton in the county that
will make as much as two bales
per acre. That is if we can get an
other rain or two to finish matur-
i ing the crop. As long as we haye
been producing cotton you would
think that we would eventually
! learn just what to do to make
the highest yields. Just this year
a large number of farmers in
Laurens County have learned
some important factors about
cotton production. No. 1. It pays
to pre-emerge. No. 2. Insecticides
should be applied at short inter
vals. No. 3. Late applications of
insecticides pay off in maturing
a top crop. No. 4. Cotton will util
ize as much or more than 75 lbs.
of actual nitrogen.
Mr and Mrs. Caldwell Hender
son of Clinton, are consigning an
outstanding Jersey heifer to the
Dixie Classic September 4. The
sale will be held at Asheville, N.
C.. and leading breeders from
throughout the southland will
consign heifers to the sale.
Some farmers will remember
a tour we had in 1960 of Laurens
County. On one stop we visited
John E. Smith's field of newly
planted Coastal Bermuda. The
field is composed of 22 acres.
This field has had 91 head of
steers on it for the past three
months.
Annual winter grazing v should
be planted as soon as moisture
permits. Most dairy farmers feel
that oats are the most palatable
and 1 suppose will yield about as
much as any of the other plants
used for winter grazing. How
ever, barley, rye grass, rye and
combinations of these will give
good grazing. Seed should be
cleaned and treated. The soil
should be tested and fertilizer ap
plied according to needs. We have t
the soil containers at the office.
The 1961 fall planting guide is
available at the county agent’s
office for those interested. The
guide includes recommendations
for all fall seeded crops.
The new oat, “Sumter,” has
shown resistance to some forms
of rust and chlorosis and is known
to have a stiff straw that stands
up better than other varieties. It
yields well and is very favorable
for grazing.
The new wheat variety, “Geor
gia 1123,” is resistant to the horse
fly and resistant to rust and mil
dew. It yields good and has good
milling qualities. It, 7 was developed |
in Georgia
A group of cotton farmers will
tour Coker s pedigreed seed farm
today (Thursday). They’ll leave
the agricultural building about
7:00 a. m. The group will look at
cotton breeding work, insect con
trol on cotton, soybeans and corn
breeding plants.
The feeder calf sales will be held
this year again at Spartanburg
and Greenwood. The Spartanburg
sale will be held on Sept. 23. and
the Greenwood sale on Sept. 20.
Calves placed in these sales have
in the past brought from 1 to 2
cents more per pound. Heifers en
tered in the Spartanburg sale
must be calfhood vaccinated and
guaranteed open. They must also
be de-horned. The same rules ap
ply at Greenwood, except that
they do not have to be calfhood
vaccinated.
