'HAMILTON CteoMon College Extension Information Spodalist DROUGHT MAT COST MILLION BUSHELS SVT<U8 South Carolina’s mammoth soybean crop will be shelling out fewer beans because of the drought last August. I have checked a number of counties and find a uniform complaint: blooms fell off the young crop when the weather turned dry two months ago. "It looks like our crop will be 25 to 50 per cent below last year,” Bill Funchess of Allendale said. Wilda Gray, Darlington (a big bean growing area) says, “Be low normal yields are expected although recent rains helped some.” “It ^doesn’t look good," re ports A. D. Grainger in Manning. And in Dillon, D. A. Benton is “Very disappointed.” Around Abbeville farmers lacked water at the right time, but are looking for a “fair crop.” Hilton Rogers, Clemson agron omist who has seen the soybean crop in most counties, says the late planted beans of late varie ties are looking “pretty good.” “The plants are small but are carrying a good many beans. But early planted soybeans of early varieties didn’t fare as well.” From August to September the Crop Reporting Service reduced indicated yields for South Caro lina from 20 bushels per acre to 18 bushels. This dropped the indi cated production from 14.1 mil lion bushels to 1.7. This would re sult in a net loss of about 1.4 million bushels. At this writing wer’re awaiting the October report which could possibly show an even lower in dicated production. Last year’s production, inci dentally, was 12.2 million. The average yield was 19 bushels per acre. Don’t be surprised if we don’t drop behind on both this year despite 64,000 more acres planted in 1963. * * » Bees should have for a win ter’s supply of food about 30 pounds of honey in each hive. At this time of year Professor W. H. Purser, a knowledgeable agriculturist at Clemson College, begins a season of worrying about the bees’ winter rations. Will there be enough to last until spring? Most nectar producing plants have bowed out for the season in the Coastal Plains. In the Pied mont Region, bees will work over the white asters which an now blooming. But these will be gone with the first hard frost. Honey made from wild asters is not the moat desirable for hu man consumption, but is excel lent for the bees’ winter food sup ply. “Now is a good time to start checking the bee yard for hives which may be short of honey, Purser says. “On warm days most of the bees should be out. Lift one end of the hive to check on stores inside. If it feels like the hive is nailed to the ground, you’re probably all right. If it’s too light, your bees may need atten tion.” Mr. Purser is concerned about our declining bee population, and for good reason. The relation of the bee population to crop plants is well known.

S. C. Presbyterian College Coach CaNy Gault Reports Interviewed by Bill Hogan — Over — WUK-AM-FM ’ •* * Saturdays 12:15 M. S. IMUY t SON, RANXOS the value oi bees is still grossly underestimated. "Several of our crogn depend entirely on hoes lor pollination. These include watermelons, can taloupes, apples, cucumbers, and clovers. Holly trees — valued for their winter “crop” of berries—also require bees for pollination.” , He says bees aid in pollinating cotton, soybeans, and corn. For this reason, more than honey is at stake as winter approaches and bees cease their outside ac tivity. • • • How much milk does a cow give? In Greenville county, produc tion has consistently gone up ward, according to Joe Jones, county agent. Dairy Herd Im provement Records for 14 herds comprising about 1,100 cows show an average production of 10,040 pounds annually Milk measured in pounds faila to produce a visual image for the average person. It’s about as clear as counting apples by the inch. But milk bottles we under stand. One of these outstanding Greenville cows is capable of giv ing 4,671 quarts annually of milk for your doorstep. To drink that output you’d need to consume al most 13 quarts a day! Perhaps that is a mite too much. But wouldn’t we be better off drinking more milk and less of those other ole beverages? A survey by the American Dairy Association last winter, showed some variation in milk consumption in four major geo graphic regions of the U. S. Mid- westerners consumed the most milk—15 ounces per person daily. Following in order were the Far West, 14.7 ounces; the Northwest, 14.7 ounces; and the South, 12.6 ounces. If all you Rebels would drink three and one-half ounces more milk per day, we’d beat those Yankees yet! * e • • . Ypu’ll be better satisifed with appearance and prices received for your pecans if you keep the varieties separate when picking up this fall. Some of the nuts are already falling. At Mr. and Mrs. James W. Odoms’ near Elko, we saw a good many Schleys on the ground this week. And many of the seed ling varieties are falling as far north as Pickens. Better make a check or the ro dents and birds may beat you to them. Cross Hil News MBS. HAROLD AUSTIN. Correspondent MountviHe News MBS.

I’ve known him for years. We went to school together. But I never felt I could come right out and ask him why he never goes to church. One night when we both happened to get into a confidential frame of mind, the words came easier. He told me that — of all things — it was because he hated this busi ness of passing the plate for money. He said he saw enough money at the bank all week without seeing it worshipped on Sunday too. I admit this shocked me. That’s why I told him, frankly, that I thought he’d completely missed the point I told him our minister once said that ft gives him a good feeling when he receives the collection; not because this is money but because the people are giving the fruit of their own efforts to God. In the old days, it might have been a sheep, or the choicest fruits and vegetables from the harvest Today, it’s dollars and cents. But the motive is still the same, and it’s a good motive. I saw Jim at the morning service a couple of weeks ago, and soma* thing tells me that it won’t be long before he’ll be getting the point . . • net missing it!
