Select Best Available
Varieties Of Seeds
BY M. L. OUTZ
County Agent
It is important to select good
quality seed for the coming crop
year. By all means select the
Best Varieties known. Half the
time the best isn’t good enough.
I suppose plant breeders have
done their best with corn, wheat
and soybeans. Wheat yields are
M. L. OUTZ,
County
Agent
about twice what they were 30
years ago. Since corn has been
hybridized it .too has taken a
Jump in yield. I’m sure farmers
can easily recall just a few years
back when soybeans would shatter
to a point that much of the crop
would be lost. The yields were
not near as good as they are to
day with the new varieties.
Another important field that
has gotten along well with the
breeder is the grain sorghum and
forages. Hybrid varities now
yield far more than the old type
varieties.
I’m sure that agronomists
would not be happy to give all
the credit to the breeder. Much
of this credit goes to the better
culture practices, higher fertili
zation, etc.
I’m sending to all the farmers
on my mailing list a copy of the
recommended crop varieties. If
you aren’t on it then call our Of
fice and we will get you on it.
In the meantime I want to give
the gardeners a few varieties
that have been tested by Clem-
son and should prove to be the
best you can plant.
Snap bean varieties are as fol
lows: Astro, Bonus, Bush Blue
Lake 274, Extender, Resistant
Cherokee Wax, Harvester, Slen-
derwhite and Tendercrop. I’m
sure you will be happy with any
one of those and at least some
can be bought locally.
A favorite of everyones is can
taloupe so try one of the follow
ing varieties: Edisto, Edisto 47,
Gulfstream, Hale’s Best Jumbo,
Smith’s Perfect. Everybody
seems to have their own favorite
and I’m sure you will enjoy one
of them.
I’m sure all gardeners would
THE CHRONICLE, Clinton,
do better to stick to tried varie
ties. Seed should be treated. All
you need to do is get Ceresan
and put a very small amount in
a jar with the seed and shake
them up.
Locate good seed now so that
you can start off on the right
foot. We have this list giving
all recommended varieties if you
want a copy just call the office.
The plant breeders say: “Don’t
hold on to an old variety just
because you think it’s good, try
new recommended varieties.
They are more disease and Ne
matode resistant.

News
BY VIVIAN DAVIS
Last Friday we were really
honored with a treat. The Ed
Sullivan Show came to school.
Jonathon Landlord starred as Ed
and promised us a “really big
shoe’ from the start. To begin
the show with a great start, Joyce
Garner charmed us as she danced
in a very noticeable costume.
Carolyn Freeman and Steve Han
son gave a remarkable exhibi
tion of talented ventrioquism with
their dummies. Proceeded by an
Exedrin commercial, Cousin
Minnie Pearl flounced onto the
stage and called out her famous
‘Howdy!’ She thrilled us with
the practicing of her “clog’ in
preperation for a ball in Wash
ington, D.C. Nancy Lee Jacks
was perfect for the part, right
down to the $2.98 hat. Next,
Russel Vance and Susan Cason
starred in a short skit as two
very, very ancient people who
came down the mountain to be on
the show. It kept us roaring the
whole time: A television variety
show would not be complete with
out true variety - Phillis Diller!
Molly Glover played it wonder
fully.
This ended the “staged’part of
the show, but Ed had spotted
some well known celebrities in
the audience and felt it his duty
to call our attention to them.
First as Jim Neighbors of “Co
mer Pyle, U.S.M.C.* - Mr. Billy
Rhodes jumped up and shouted,
“Surprise, surprise, surprise.
Don Knotts ( Mr. Hack Prater)
was there with his badge on, along
with Mr. Lindsey Randall as
Jonathon Winters. Mrs. Marion
Neighbors took our breath away as
she stood up as Granny on ‘The
Beverly Hillbillies’. It was a
hilarious show and Mrs. R. P.
Wilder is the genius who wrote
it
We have a new teacher at
school. Mrs. Grace Connor is
now teaching chorus, but since
she taught in the surrounding
elementary schools, we can not
say she is a new face.
Recently one of the seventh
grade students, Geraldine Saw
yer, underwent surgery in Char
leston. She was expected to re
turn home Saturday. We are all
looking forward to her return to
school.
