Lifetime p licies contain non-forfeiture values where the insured may borrow money from his life insurance company, using his policy for collateral or he may stop paying premiums and continue insurance protection on a modified basis or receive a cash settlement for the complete termination f the contract.

Most of the corn has been planted and is up to a good stand. Cotton was being planted with machines running at top speed. Gardens have t>een planted and most of them are up to a good stand. Soylieans have yet to tie planted. The rain came and brought machines to a grinding halt. It was badly needed. Grain, es pecially, had tie gun t suffer. Pastures had l>een fertilized in many rases, since the last rain’ and were needing a drink. Much of the land had been prepared and needed a rain to settle the soil. Yes sir! This rain is in keep ing with the pretty spring we have had throughout our area. It now seems that peach grow- ors have only an over-supply to worry about. At least, so far. 1 realize a hail storm can dis rupt things in a few minutes and destroy the crop completely. I’m talking about up to now. So keep your fingers crossed and get ready to freeze, can, and eat a lot of good juicy peaches this summer.

A pretty lawn increases the value of a home greatly. Laurens County farmers plant ed about two tons of registered serala lespedeza. A great deal has already l>een sown and is up to a stand. About 30 farmers are trying the new plant. Acre age is from one up to twelve. Mallette Wham has twelve acres and will lie the largest grower this year. All of the acreage will tie eligible for certification. Serala should give Laurens County cattlemen a new source of forage. This new improved variety of sericea should give us a boost for hay as well as graz ing. Sericea had advantages in- as-mucti it is easily seeded. It does well on poor soil. Goodness yes! We have plenty of that. There is one thing we must under stand and that is that sericea has certain peculiarities and we must learn to take the advant age of those to get the best results. Sericea does not re quire nitrogen and that is perhaps the greatest advantage. It is a cheaper growing plant. Those who do not have any of this new plant will want to take a look at some grown by neighbors.
