I stopped by to see the Ir by Poqle fam*y recently, and they had gathered a trailer load of the tree ripe variety, and brother, they were delic ious. The Pooles have seven acres of peaches for the lo cal market. They were sprayed and fertilized heav ily so that quality would be assured. Irby and son, Bob by, have a total of 30 acres of watermelons that have just begun to bloom. These will also be sold locally. With only family labor and an occasional hired hand, the Pooles do a remarkable job with their produce. In addi tion to the watermelons and peaches, they have seven acres of cotton and two acres of tomatoes. Usually squash and turnip greens are added in late summer. Son Bobby, besides being in partnership with his dad dy, has a floor sanding busi ness to keep up with. Irby also sells a few second hand tractors in his spare time. The Poole family is one of the busiest in Laurens Coun ty. Congratulations for a job well done. Feeder cattle prices are holding up, according to re ports received from other areas of the county. Good steers. 300 to 500 pounds, overage 26.25 as Compared to 23.00 last year at Kansas City, Mo. Let’s look at the cotton in- s e c t situation. Oftentimes farmers have been told to spray or dust during June to kill the over-wintered weevils as they come out of hibernation. If this plan s is followed, it should reduce the population, and the first squares should set. But they also mean a lot to the boll weevil survival. I hope cot ton producers have done a good job during June and square sthat will open up this fall. • • • The dry weather has cut all crops except cotton Pas tures, com. gardens, soy beans. and forage crops have suffered. We need a rain a week to make top yields.
