Nix of Route. 2, Fountain Inn. Nix along with his son, J. E., Jr., has constructed two 32 X 400 feet poultry facilities. Baby chicks have been placed in the building and are about two weeks old. They are on automatic waterers and feeders. The pullets will re main in the houses until they are 18 to 20 weeks old. At that time they will be taken and placed in cages for egg producing. Mr. Nix expects to grow out at least two groups of pullets a year. He is growing them out on contract for Central Soya of Newberry. The house is insulated and is of steel and creosote posts. The insulation, of course, will keep them warm in winter and much cooler in summer. This will galp with feed conversion and liva bility. In addition to the poul try enterprise, Mr. Nix is plant ing about 65 acres in soybeans and has 32 brood cows, and five brood sows. I notice from experiments done at Clemson that Soybeans planted May 20 yield 33 bushels per acre on a three year average. Those planted May 1 had a yield of 29 bushels and those planted on June 10 had a yield of 29. So it looks as if planting early will cut yield just as much as planting late. Soybeans, however, can be plant ed on in June with reasonably good results. One of the prob lems of planting late is that the bean will not be very tall. Bill Senn mentioned this week that that was one of the big problems of planting soybeans late, they do not get tall enough to cut without dropping the cutter-bar too low and picking up rocks. Soybean planting behind cotton need not be fertilized. If you do fertilize, use very little as you would not be able to tell the difference in the yield. This will not apply to most farmers as there is very little cotton plant ing. Soybean varieties best suit ed for our area are: Bragg and Cokers 266. There is quite a lot of Davis being planted, too. We are getting quite a few calls this week on Camelia leaf gall from our city friends. This disease effects Azaleas and Ca- melias. The symptons are a much enlarged leaf. We recommend that you remove those leaves and, of course, dispose of them. This is better than any spray com pound. POULTRY HOUSE)—Above is J. E. chicks are grown-out for 20 weeks and Nix cleaning out the waterer in one are grown on contract basis. Mr. of the poultry houses. Nix has two Nix says he is liking it better every houses. They are constructed spe- week cifically for growing-out pullets. The Exclusively at Maxwell Brothers Furniture 204 NORTH BROAD STREET CUNTON. S. C.

Regular 4-H clubs meet each month from October through May and do not meet the months dur ing the summer. (EDITOR'S NOTE: Information in this column is provided by faculty members and Extension Service specialist of Clemson U- niversity. Readers are invited to submit pertinent questions to be answered in the column. Address to: Editor, Home and Outdoors, care of this paper.) Q. How much fertilizer should I use for my home vegetable gar den? A. Twenty-five pounds per 1,000 square feet. This should be a balanced or “complete”fertili zer, one having the major nutri ents of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. These include 5-10- 10, 8-8-8, 4-12-12, and others. The figures list the ratio of the nutrients, the first referring to nitrogen, the second phosphorus, and the third to potassium.--Dr. W. L. Ogle, professor of horti culture. Q. For many years I have no ticed the printed precaution: “Be fore Using Any Pesticide, STOP, READ THE LABEL.” Why so much emphasis? A. This is to help prevent acci dents, and also to insure the user his money’s worth through pro per and most effective usage. AL WAYS read all precautions or directions before using pesticide sprays, dusts or granules, and follow them exactly. Note, espec ially, warnings before opening the container. This process should be repeated every time the material is used--no matter how often, or how familiar the user thinks he is with directions. Apply mate rial only in amounts specified, at the time directed, and to plants recommended.--W. C. Nettles, principal Extension specialist, Entomology & Plant Pathology. Q. When can I prune evergreen ornamental shrubs, especially azaleas and camellias? A. Prune azaleas and camellias after flowering. Azaleas can be pruned until July without loss of flower crops. Pruning after July 1 in most areas of the state means reduction in flowering. Other evergreen shrubs can be pruned at any time during the season as needed, but best time for pruning is before growth starts in the sp- ring.--J. P. Fulmer, assistant professor of horticulture. Q. When is the best time to plant fruit trees? There are many 4-H activities during the summer months, how ever. InJulymany LaurensCoun- ty 4-H members attend4-H Week at Clemson where they are in competition with other 4-H’ers over the state. Record books are judged, the various judging teams have contests, a tractor driving contest is held and the state win ner for the barbecue chicken con test is selected at Clemson. 4-H’ers with livestock projects will be preparing for the shows in the fallduringthe summer. Al so two lucky Laurens County 4-H’ers will attend the State Electric Congress at Florence this August. You can see that even though regular meetings are not held through the summer it is a very busy time. Since this is the last meet ing month several of the 4-H Clubs are planning picnics and cook-outs. The Cross Hill Sr. Club recently held a cook-out on Lake Greenwood. The County- Wide Club and the Shady Grove Club are also planning to have picnics. . ■■ .I on > I HOPE YOU HAVENT HEARD THIS ONE By Tom Plaxtoo This Is A Joke— When you hear that after-dinner speaker say, “I’m going to give you this straight from the shoulder,” don’t you want to ask him if he could go a little higher up for his source? This Is NO JOKE— This is the time of year for school gradua tions—High School, College, TEC Schools, etc. We are proud of our young people in the Clinton area and congratulate them heartily for their accomplishments. If you proud par ents want to show your youngster just how much you appreciate him or her, come up to Plaxico’s and buy a new or used car for that graduation gift.

C., since our mild winters provide an oppoutunity for root growth.—Dr. G.E.Stern- bridge, associate professor of horticulture. Q. Flies are a problem every summer. What can I do to con trol them around the home? A. Several things. Make sure that garbage cans are fly tight to prevent breeding. Insure that garbage isn’t dumped in open fields near residences. If this is a problem, call the county sani tarian. Make sure that screens are in good repair to exclude flies and other flying insects. For the occasional fly, use the old stand-by fly swatter, It is not wise to spray the house down with aerosol bug bombs for only a few flies. F or closed rooms, the use of the “Vapor Strip’ containing DDVP has found wide acceptance and will clear a room of flying insects overnight.--Dr. J.B.
