OUTZ County Agent The Piedmont Rural Electric Co-op held its annual meeting re cently at the courthouse in Lau rens. Several hundred people were in attendance, in fact the courthouse was full and running over. I was surprised, with that many people, that someone dicto’t get up and complain about something, since it is a Co-op. But not a one. Here is why. They give good service. This must be the rea son. The Co-op. is off the ground and doing a fine job. Mr. Stoddard, manager of the Co-op., brought out that the Pied mont Co-op. had 775 phones with a private line, 384 with two- party and 2,637 with four party. It was brought out by Mr. Stod dard that in the forseeable fu ture everyone would be on a pri vate line and at no extra cost. This is unbelievable, but hire. Also that Enoree and West End could be called without long dis tance. rn . T n *TTxA out paying extra. In communities you can’t. For instance, Mount ville can call no where except Cross Hill without paying extra and the same is true with Cross Hill. Some of the phones in Mount ville have party lines with as many as eight on them. You know what that means. In talking with some of the people down there it was brought out that the cost was as high as anywhere in the county. It is my sincere hope that Lau- kens County citizens will some day be able to call each other without long distance charge. This is very badly needed along with a rural fire system, county wide water system and a trash disposal area for each com munity. We can get it all if peo ple will work together as they did with the Telephone Co-op. TIPS FROM CLEMSON & 1.1 f Mj t The Co-op. does borrow money at a cheap rate of interest and it has other advantages as well. However, I’m sure if it were not for this service our country would not have developed to the extent that it has. Certainly Laurens would be on the lacking side. I’m sure that all of those citizens of the county that are members are proud of the ser vices being rendered. Mr. Stod dard and all the employees and di rectors are to be congratulated on the fine job they have done. This is a far cry from just years back when we needed the doctor and had to travel sev eral miles to get one. There are so many essential uses of the phone today that it would be hard to name them. Many of us take these things for granted. They didn’t come easy. Some areas of Laurens County is certainly not doing so well as others. I believe four dif ferent telephone companies are operating in the county and you can hardly call anywhere with out paying for long distance calls. From Laurens it is longdistance to Clinton, Enoree, Fountain Inn, Princeton, Ware Shoals, and Mountville. In other words, you can hardly call anywhere with- ■■ OfffrNEapa Q. What causes sweating win dows and what can be done about it? A. When moisture-laden air passes over the cooler surface of the windows, it loses conden sation, resulting in “sweating.” Ventilation will reduce this, but will be costly in loss of heat. The best solution is storm win dows. The air space between the window glass and the storm win dow acts as an insulator and keeps the inside glass temperature high enough in most cases to pre vent sweating. -- Ernest B.Rog ers, Jr., associate professor, ag ricultural engineering. Q. When is the time to fer tilize shade trees, and how is the best way to do it? A. Late fall or early winter are preferable. If not then, in the early spring when buds begin to swell. Root feeding is best Make two circles of holes, one three feet inside the drip line and one three feet outside. They should be 12-18 Inches deep and 18-24 inches apart. Holes maybe punched, drilled with a soil auger, or hosed in with water. Slanting increases the fertilizer area. Complete fertilizers with high er amounts of nitrogen are re commended for shade trees. Use from two to four pounds of each inch in diameter when the trunk measures greater than six inches breast high. Use one-half this tor trees with breast high diameters of less than six Inches. Fill holes about three fourths full with soil rather than leaving open. —J. P. Fulmer, assistant pro- ressor, horticulture. Q. What is the treatment for a beetle which attacks oak trees under the bark? Attacks aren’t detected until tee bark cracks and eventually comes oft -- R. H., Greer A. Several beetles, including berk beetles, tbe oak timber worm, and others infest the hark of aok trees. Sometimes, how ever, tee oak and other hard woods tend to shed bark during growth and occasionally insects found underneath may not he to blame. In many instances they may be considered beneficiaL Oaks cultivated for ’shade should he kept healthy by pro per iartllisation and pruning, and otherwise guarded against undue damage. Since many of the attacks of insects come daring outbreaks, there have been suggestions that
