19 THB CLINTON CHRONICLE Clinton, 8. C n Thamiay, Jane 18, 1994 FARMS AND FOLKS By L. C. HAMILTON Clemaon College Extension Information Specialist It’s a rather strange experi ence to see a bona fide South Carolina farm group mount a first class public relations ef fort. It wasn’t too many years ago that farmers didn’t have to worry about public relations. They were so numerous they didn’t worry what other people thought about them. Non-farmers were more concerned about what farmers thought. Farmers were the body politic. Farmers were among the last to enter the public relations field in an effort to educate the gen eral public is to their problems and goals. You might expect them to be rather amateurish. But the South Carolina Council of Milk Producers representing 881 state dairies do not appear to be beginners in their current campaign to educate citizens on the value and advantages of locally-produced milk. Now underway are 14 meet ings with business and govern ment leaders throughout South Carolina. I attended ant of these meetings in Anderson. The straightforward and very thor ough analysis of their business and its relationship to the gen eral economy — presented by these dairymen—left me with the PLEASE ACCEPT MY SINCERE THANKS I am deeply grateful for the wonderful support given me by the voters of Laurens County. I do appreciate your trust In me by electing me to serve you as one of your representatives. X C. “JAKE” LEAGUE impression they were not ama teurs. Walter Bell, a HartSville dai ryman and secretary of the council, helped arrange the plan for each of the meetings—a visit to a local dairy to learn of producer problems goals and, finaly, a supper meeting where these problems were correlated with larger objectives. The meetings were arranged and conducted by local dairy men and processors. The chair man of the Anderson meeting Was J. H. Hopkins, Pendelton dairyman. The council is telling business men that milk producers have $100,000,000 invested in their dairies in this state. The businessmen are also learning that South Carolina Grade A dairymen receive $24.6 million dollars annually for their milk. Most of this Is spent for consumer goods and suppUss and services needed on the farm. The consumer is being remind ed that human diseases former ly attributed to milk are practi cally a thing of the past Recent stringent health safeguards, for which the dairymen have had to invest heavily, make their milk ‘‘second to none” in the U. S. from the standpoint of sanita tion. Consumers are also told that milk priced at $0.93 a half gallon is in line with prices in other Southeastern states. At this price, they say, it is one of the best food buys in the store from the standpoint of nutrients and minerals per ounce of dry mat ter. Milk contains one of the highest quality proteins avail able. The dairymen art telling the general public that current prices of $0.93 a half gallon have narrowed their gross margin above operating cost to about one cent per half gallon. “The bane of our existence,” one leader said, “are milk-price wars. If we can avoid them in the future, and are given time, we hope to produce milk more economically and assure our selves a margin above produc tion cost with which we can live.” The dairymen admitted frank ly that some mldwestern eastern dairy regions are pro ducing milk more economically than in the southeast. “But they are old dairy re gions Ours is an ituftif. try. Dairies were a rare thing in South Caroinla thirty years ago. The average age of the South Carolina dairy is only 13 years.” The southeastern dairies are closing the gap rapidly on any disparity in economics of pro duction with other regions. What local dairymen are appealing for is time. SOCIAL SECURITY Question— I put in for social security in 1990 when I was 69 but was told I didn't have enough credits to collect. Should I try again or just forget K? Answer—Try again. The law has changed twice since 1999 and you don’t need as many credits now as you did then. Men who were 69 in 1969 now need only 2 years social security work credit to draw monthly pay ments. Question—How old do you have to be to get social security disability checks? Answer—There is no age re quirement You can now draw disability checks at *iy age under 66. Question —We Just hired a maid. Do we have to pay social security on her? Answer—If you pay her as much as $80 in a calendar quar ter, you do. A calendar quarter is a 3-month period beginning with January, April, July, or Oc tober. Question—Will I need a birth certificate to get my social sc- jorde-yd for the county’s rescue curity? * squad. Answer — No!

Sun and rain, yes, and eortainly rich, abundant soil... and yet, something more, something that gives it the ability to seek and use strength. Someone gives US lift . . . nourishing food, warm comfortable shelter, these help certainly. But still ... something else. Our souls reach far below the surface of everyday existence to And our deeper faith In God’s wisdom and power. Wo place ourselves at His mercy. We seek Him often in prayer and worship, and ’’times of refresh ing shall come from the presence of the Lord.” Having found this fountain of faith, like the harvest, we point ever heavenward to share with others our discovery.
