READ EPHESIANS 3:14-21
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?
(Romans 8:35). Having loved his own which were in
the world, be loved them unto the end. (John 13:1.)
Christ’s love never varies. No matter how cold our love to Him,,
how selfish or self-centered, disobedient or neglectful we may be
come, He does not alter in any way His love to us. His love neither
diminishes nor cools. It is unquenchable.
Sometimes we become disillusioned with those we love. So we re
strain our love. Often a coolness springs up between us Rut our
l.ord is never disillusioned with us. He knows us. He understands
us. He forgive us, and keeps pn loving us with the same intensity.
His love is unlike all other loves It is divine. So is the love
which He imparts us, and which may be implanted in our hearts,
if we will let it. This is the love that draws humanity to Christ,
woos and wins men and women, and melts hardened hearts.
PRAYER
Our Father, we thank Thee for that unchangeable
and eternal love of Christ. May our knowledge of that
love grow more and more. Grant that we may expe
rience Thy love in our lives. May we make it known to f
others, that they may be warmed and comforted, even
as we are. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
We who accept Christ’s love are to convey it to others

AMBULANCE SERVICE
FARMS AND FOLKS
By L. C. HAMILTON
Clemson College Extension Information Specialist
You’d have to call 1961 one ofierally good weather for crops.
the fat years
Information now drifting in
shows that farmers may be
breaking all kinds of production
records this year. The cost-price
squeeze, which lingers on, may
restrict farm profits. But the
barns and storehouses should be
jam-packed full, nevertheless.
Here’s why you can stop wor
rying about the food supply If
the transportation system gets
smashed in some kind of national
emergency, just remember that
this happened in South Carolina.
I’ll relate reports from Dr. M. C.
Rochester, Clemson extension ag
ricultural economist, and the
South Carolina Crop Reporting
Service:
‘‘Wheat and barley yields this
year were the highest ever, an
average ot 24 and 35 bushels an
acre, respectively.
"South Carolina tobacco farm
ers, on the average, made 1,875
iwunds per acre this year. This is
the highest on record.
“On the average, South Caro
lina farmers produced more corn
per acre than any time in history
—34 bushels an acre.
“Hay production was the high
est on record, as was peaches,
and grapes
“The soybean crop—becoming
increasingly important — will
yield an estimated 21 bushels an
acre if present estimates are cor
rect. This is the highest ever for
South Carolina."
What were things like during
the lean years? I’ll cite from the
Clemson Agronomy Handbook-
one of our best sources of know
ledge for farm crops:
It was 191^) before wheat yields
ever exceeded 10 bushels an acre.
It was 1946 before farmers, on
the average, could produce more
than 15 bushels of wheat. Corn
yields were 10.5 bushels in 1934
and 1954.
In addition to reflecting gen-
the high yields also show the
results of improved techniques
of farming
Meeting the competition is one
of the characteristics of present
day farming. High economical
yields are one of the efficiencies
of production which permU farm
ers to stay in business despite in
creasing costs and decreasing
farm prices.
* * •
Last year farm cooperatives,
exclusive of electric and credit
associations, did a 35 million dol
lar business in South Carolina,
according to R. D. Steer, Clem-
son extension cooperative mar
keting specialist, Greenwood.
This may he a little surprising
to some who have the impression
that cooperatives just didn’t
work as well in the South.
“We have 70 cooperatives ope
rating in South Carolina besides
the 69 eJectric and credit asso
ciations. The seventy coopera
lives have more titan 55,000
members.
These people have formed the
cooperatives because of a need
for better markets or new ser
vices. And they have a great deal
of pride and confidence in their
organizations
The business from marketing
and bargaining by cooperatives
amounted to about 30 million dol
lars last year. The value of pur
chases and services was about 6
million.
Now, hold your breath. Add to
this the volume of business done
by credit and electric coopera
tives and you get a total of about
$100,000,000,000.00.
I’ve heard it said that wherever
you find a thriving agricultural
area, you’ll find successful co
operatives along with other types
of business organizations

C. C. Moore, I>ong Creek, South
Carolina, in his eighties, is one of
250 young trees It takes from 4
to 7 years, you know, for most
apple trees to bear.
If Mr Moore can look to the
future with optimism, he can also
look back at a long and eventful
life He recalls that his grand
mother. .to a young girl, remem
bers the Cherokee Indians com
ing hack to trade at Long Creek
How long ago this was, we are
not able to determine accurately.
But I do recall reading in an old
issue of the Keowee Courier, an
early up-country newspaper, that
the last town of Indians of the
Cherokee nation moved from
Long Creek, South Carolina, into
Georgia in 1798

Farmers who plan to plant cot
ton next spring might profit by
liming demonstrations which
farmers and county agents put
on this year.
Limed plots in Aiken county
produced 385 pounds more seed
cotton than unlimed plots in the
same field, according to Aiken
County Agent J H. Evans. This
astounding result was obtained In
spite of an original pH of 6 0

ty agent for first hand results in
your area Extension Agronomist

Here’s another triumph for the
machine
It surely won't help your infe-
rioirty complex, but the cold,
hard, impersonal machine has
beaten us again.
Word from ginners and cotton
quality experts is to the effect
that machine-picked cotton this
year was better than hand-pick
ed. This (s the reason: The ma
chine will not pick the hard, dis
eased locks that cause a depres
sion in grade and weakened fiber
strength, according to S. A. Wil
liams. Clemson extension cotton
ginning specialist.
