Quality is good. The quantity
may be limited due to the
adverse spring weather.
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.
