. Increasing use of processed
poultry moats by family con.
sutners and the growing import
ance of institutions as customers
ar% bringing some interesting
triads in the opultry Industry.
Dr. Douglas Hamm, Clemson
University leader of extension
poultry work, says the family*
sised broiler of 2-3 pounds dress
ed weight is perhaps here to stay
simply because they're the right
sise to satisfy appetites of the
average family of four to six
members.
Turkey growers may have a
different situation with respect
to Institutions like restaurants,
hospitals, rest homes, and the
armed forces, however.
Many of these institutions
would prefer turkeys weighing
up to 50 pounds (if it were avail
able) rather than baking 5 fowls
weighing only 10 pounds each in
order to obtain the same quanti
ty of cooked meat.
Dr. Hamm says that within
the turkey industry there has
recently been a stronger demand
for larger turkeys weighing 25
pounds or more. Part of this de
mand has been created by the
addition of new turkey food pro
ducts gotten by further proces
sing.
M. C. Small, executive secre
tary of the National Turkey Fed
eration, says his group has spon
sored a heaviest turkey contest
for years. A few years ago this
contest was won by turkeyman
T. B. Setzler of Newberry.
Setxler’s entry weighed an
astounding 61 pounds and 4
ounces, live weight. His turkey
still holds the live weight rec.
ord.
Prior to 1960, Small said the
Federation has specified that
turkeys in the contest by "New
Yark dressed," that is, they
were killed, bled, and picked
free of feathers. The insides,
head and feet, were left on.
Small related that the compe
tition became so fierce that at
o n e contest the, turkeymen
thought the heaviest turkey exhi
bited appeared too small in size
to account for its spectacular
weight of 68tt pounds. Contest
ants shouted that the turkey was
"loaded" and the live bird re
quirement had to be instituted.
Some of the turkeys exhibited

Your Telephono
COMPUTERS HELP us a great deal in providing
Clinton with good telephone service. But they can
never replace the spirit of service so traditional
with telephone people. That spirit is the very
human concern which prompets our people to give
an extra measure of helpfulness, wherever its need
ed. And it's as much a part of Southern Bell ser
vice in South Carolina today as it was 'way back
before computers wore invented.

WHY IS YOUR TELEPHONE
LIKE A LADY’S COSMETIC
CASE? Sound like a silly ques
tion? Well, it has a very sensible
answer. Western Electric, the com
pany that manufactures telephone
parts, uses many beauty prepara- 1
tions in the manufacturing process.
Beeswax (the same kind that goes into eye shadow) is
used as a preservative for small wooden parts. A'special
kind of alcohol, also used in cologne, is used as a finishing
solution for telephone parts. Talcum powder in pressed
cores is used for loading coils which are placed in tele
phone circuits. You might say, the same cosmetics that
subtract years from a woman’s appearance, add yean to
the life of your phone!

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN EATEN OUT OF HOUSE
AND HOME? Do you lead a charmed life? Are you
merry as the day is long? If so, you’re a living example
of some of the immortal quotations from William Shake
speare. Day after day, all over the world, lines from his
writings are in every English-speaking country. Even
though his writings are hundreds of yean old, his thinking
is as up-to-date as tomorrow, and means as much to us
as it did to the Englishmen of his time. Here are some
more of his famous quotes: Method in his madnyff . . .
give the devil his due ... the milk of human kindness...
elbow room . .. with bag and baggage . .. laugh yourself
into stitches. And, to quote the Bard again ... all’s well
that ends well!

you." (Quicker, tool)
at the Federation's shows have
been so large mid the competi
tion so keen that some growers
even considered buying an os
trich in order to take the crown.
Whether the ostrich was ever
seriously considered I cannot
say. More than likely the sug
gestion was made in lest
But the ostrich idea Is interest
ing even though it may be im
practical. The ostrich is the
largest living bird. The South
African ostrich, for Instance,
may weigh up. to 300 pounds.
The larger birds stand 7 to 8 feet
tall.
■’ Perhaps we missed the boat
back in the 1600’s when we al
lowed the Moas, giant birds of
New Zealand, to become extinct.
Some of the Moas weighed as
much as 500 pounds and were 12
feet high! The natives of the is
lands on which the Mos lived
relished the meat. The natives’
constant hunting of the - giant
bird is believed to have caused
their extinction.
The Moas were thought to feed
on fern roots and green leaves.
Perhaps they lived for many
years. Their cousins, the os
trich, sometimes live to the ripe
old age of 75 years, according to
one authority.
How efficient the ostrich is in
feed conversion, we don’t know.
Little research hat been done
with the giant bird. They would
have to be most efficient, how
ever, to compare favorably with
the chicken.
Dr. Hamm says broilers pro.
duced today put on a pound of
flesh for each two pounds of feed
which they eat. A one to one ra
tio has been obtained in the
laboratory. This seems to be al
most unbelievable; a near state
of perfection in developing an ef
ficient species for producing
flesh.
The broiler's outstanding effi
ciency in feed conversion will
perhaps have a restraining in
fluence on the bigness trends in
poultry fowls.
Yet we can’t resist speculating
on how a young 106-pound os
trich would look on the banquet
table, or buying a 3-pound os
trich egg for the family’s week

settlers of the area. His Inn is
referred to as the "John Lee
Stage Tavern” in Mil’s Atlas,
published in 1320 and revised in
1825. This was a regular stopping
point on the stagecoach route,
and its most famous visitor was
George Washington, who break
fasted here on May 2S K 1731, dur
ing his tour of toe South.
If you drive back to Lee Street,
which is South Carolina 331, and
turn left, you can follow this
route to the site of one of the
early bitter struggles of the
American Revolution. About two
miles from LeesviUe, on the
James Barr property, the Battle
of Cloud’s Creek, or the famous
"Butler Massage” took place.
Here, Captain James Butler, his
son, and about thirty Whigs or
patriots attempted to fight off
an attack by several hundred
Loyalists (or Tories) under com
mand of William Cunningham.
Nearly all of the Whigs were
killed in this struggle, and their
bodies left unburied. It was
mostly sorrowing women, rela
tives of the dead, who dug a
common grave for all those ex
cept Captain Butler and his son,
who were interred together. A
new marker, erected last year
on Highway 331, Indicates the
site. The battle site and graves
are still visible today.
After coming back to U. 3. 1
(Church Street) you con continue
into Batesburg, where there are
several historic old homes. There
is none that holds more secrets
of long ago than the Hartley
House, across from the Bates
burg Eelementary School. It is
virtually hiden among the moss-
covered giant oaks and crepe
myrtles, reminiscent of the ro
mantic atmosphere of the Old
South.
You cannot visit the home, as
Hartley descendants still reside
there, but it has a colorful story.
It was built about 1796 by John
Pearson Bond, who married the
daughter of an Indian Agent,
Captain John Falrchield. Even
tually, early settler John Bates
came into possession of the prop
erty and lived in this house for
about 30 years. During the time
Bates owned it, the house was
a stagecoach stop, and it is be
lieved that the town was first
called Batesville for this reason.
When formal incorporation of
the town came in 1377, Hie name
became Batesburg, to save can-
fusion with another town hi the'
state, bearing the name Bates
ville. Lodwlck Hartley bought
the house in 1853 and it has re
mained in {hit family fore more
than a century.
Another home in Batesburg
was owned by Michael Bates,
brother of John. This old home
still stands on the north side of
town, on Saluda Avenue (High
way 178) at Bermuda Street. It
Is a fine example of the architec
ture of its time. There is no firm
confirmation of the date it was
built, but it was prior to toe Civil
War, probably in the eariy 1800’s.

How many times do you drive
through a town without giving a
thought to what history or points
of interest might be there? Many
towns in South Carolina are de
ceiving on the surface, as you’ll
find at Batesburg-Leesville, the
"twin-city" communities' about
thirty miles west of Columbia on
U. S. Highway 1.
As you drive along Church
Street (U. S. 1) in Leesville, you
wilu pass the Southern Methodist
Church. On a site across the
street, John Lee built an Inn in
the late 1700’s. Lee owned much
of what is now Lexington Coun

A monument to the Master?
Look with your heart and you’ll see something else. You’ll see the
aoul of the sculptor.
A rann mightily inspired — who wanted with his talents to worship
Christ — .who took stone and chisel and hammer ... and all the strength
of his body . . . and aU the faith of his heart. He said to the world with
his Art-Words that which he could never have spoken with his lips nor
written with his pm.
For twenty centuries Jesus, the Saviour, has inspired our best. In
the ttwnaiu of mankind a million thrilling breakthroughs in human achieve
ment have been dedicated to His service.
So novor past the humblest creation of sacred art — not even the

have a soul And talents to give your God!
