TRASH—Another trash dump. Shown above Is
one of the literally hundreds of trash piles where
people have no place to throw their trash. This
one is located in the Maddens community and as
the sign shows warns people that they are violating
the law but they continue to pile the trash by the
newly constructed state highway.
Citizens Seek Rural
Trash Dump System
BY M. L. OUTZ
County Agent
Last week a group of interest
ed citizens of Mountville, Cross
Hill, and Waterloo held a meet
ing with supervisor Furman
Thomason concerning establish
ing trash dumps in those com
munities and in other communi
ties around Laurens County. A
Catawba Company representative
offered land to establish a dump
in the Mountville area. I am sure
other companies will do the same
provided the county will super
vise these dumps. This group de
cided that these dumps simply
had to be established in the coun
ty so that people would have a
place to dump their trash rather
than on the shoulders of the high
way. Mr. Thomason pledged his
cooperation and said that he saw
the need for having our county
cleaned up, but he brought out that
there had to be means provided
to do this type of work and if
the people wanted this service
they would have to provide this
means.
I am sure that the rural peo
ple of nOTreWT' 7 '' iTITTf?
and can see that some type of
organized effort must be made to
provide means for people to dump
their trash. There are so many
people in the county now who have
only an acre or two of land and
do not have any place to dump
their rubbish. These families, to
gether with those who simply do
not care, are causing much of the
problems. It was summed up that
each family in the county would
have several hundred pounds of
trash each year to dispose of.
In visiting over the county and
talking this problem over with our
people it is felt too that law
enforcement agencys should be
more interested in this problem.
The law simply states and I
quote, “It shall be unlawful for
any person without written per
mission to dump or leave trash,
refuse or garbage on any pro
perty belonging to another or on
or along any public highway,
ocean or river front, river, har
bor or beach in this State.”
A committee from those of
Mountville and surrounding area
are meeting with the county de
legation in the very near future
to see if there can be some
thing worked out to at least make
a start at solving this problem.
Recently I had the pleasure of
visiting some of our 4-H Club
members with Joe Cely, Assist
ant County Agent. We started with
Red and Steve Fridy, who have a
beef calf project. In fact, all of
those we visited have purchased
calves this year for their 4-H
project. Gray Curry of Gray
Court, has two Angus calves that
he is grooming for showing this
fall. From Gray’s we went to Dan
Osborne’s of the Youngs Com
munity. He also has an Angus calf
together with the several horses
tl^at he is taking care of. From
there we went over to visit with
Billy Patterson and Eddie Simp
son, who have registered here-
fords calves for their projects.
Another young man who is in the
Dairy Club that recently pur
chased a dairy calf is Maxie Pat
terson. He has a registered Hol
stein for his project.
It is certainly impressive
to visit with these young people
and to see their interest and en-
thusiam in 4-H work. I do not be
lieve that there is anything that
is more important in our work
that we do than that of the 4-H
work. I want to congratulate all
these boys on their interest and
the fine work that they are doing.

The design of this information

In explaining the significance of
the System Mr. Louis pointed out,
“As we look at the decade ahead
we envision the greatest expan

industry has ever experienced.
We will be able to serve our cus

producing information that will
enable us to maJoe management
