Each season the situation tends to get worse. This shal low plowing only cuts another crop of weed seed into the sur face. Combine this with the ab sence of row crops for a few years and you have a soil that just won’t produce small grain, regardless of how good the soil. Wheat seems to hold up better than most small grains under such management. • * * Bert Sumeral, one of three Sumeral brothers in the con tracting business, has developed some fine pastures. Bert has a small herd of beef cattle start ed and says he intends to put in more pasture. He has a small tractor and does all of his own pasture work in spare time. He is depending on fescue and coastal bermuda for hi?,.cattle. • • • Farmers will probably do some night plowing when the soil dries. At this time of year, the soil seems to get too hard to plow before it gets dry. Moisture tends to rise at night and makes plowing easier, and cheaper if it can be done. This has the important advantage of allowing the soil to settle, so that planting may be done in a firm seed bed. * *.„ • The annual spring feeder sales will be held April 4th and 5th. The Greenwood sale will be held on April 4th, and the Spartanburg sale cm April 5th. Beef cattle producers have re ceived notice, along with rules and regulations on the two sales. i Mofcmtville News MRS.

OUTZ, CM*y AM New chemicals such as s[ma rine and atrazine will be used a great deal in Laurens County this spring. They will be used as pre - emerge materials on corn. If they’re applied prop erly and get a rain within a few days after planting, the corn is laid by at planting time. Moisture is necessary to cause the material to spread over the surface of the soil. Some farmers plan to have the chemical applied in liquid Nitrogen just after planting. c Robert Harris has used fhte materials for the past two years on his bottom land. He was bothered with morning glo ries and cockleburrs two of the worst pests, and could not use his corn picker. After using the chemical, the field was per fectly clean. V* * • • Nitrogen, 78 percent of the atmosphere, and extremely short in our soils, is beihg ap plied to grain later than usual. This is caused by so much rain. Grain looks spotty. The freezes killed a bit of it,, espec ially that sown near the freeze date. FV ■ v v 7 A- THAIS INCOME TAX? BLESS THOSE LITTLE DEDUCTIONS!
