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. But Purser think«

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!

. 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.

Jim Branch works in our local bank. 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!
