MARCH FARM CALENDAR A8
OUTLINED BY COUNTY AQENT
To get ready for a better year of
farming, county agent W. C. McCarley
inakea these better farming suggestions
for March:
Agronomy ? Make, Have and ubu
farm manures and compoat in producing
crops. Before buying fertilizer,
study carefully the needs of your soil
for plant food to feed the plants
grown on that soil. Buy materials
and mix fertilizer bo that plants
will be supplied with food moat needmi.
Buy fertilizers containing 16 or
more units of plant food. Purchase
enough Improved seed to grow your
next year's supply of seed, to maintain
quality production.
Horticulture?Set out fruit trees if
not already set. Plant raspberries
and blackberries any time this month.
Prune and spray fruit trees. Apply
spirng fertilizer to orchards. Plant
hardy vegetables now.
Insects and Diseases?Treat cotton
seed to prevent damplng-off and to
obtain better stand. Remove bands
from apple trees, scrape rough bark
off, and kill the over-wintering codling
moth larvae. (Irow corn as far
; as possible from last year to control
billbugs and borers. Do not plant
corn adjacent to small grain in chinch
oug area. Piunt velvet Deans or crotalaria
on small grain or "resting"
land in wireworm area. Control cutworms
with poisoned bran mash. Dust
tobacco plants with derris dust to
control flea beetles. Plant wilt-resistant
tomatoes and cotton.
Agricultural Engineering ? Check
over farm machinery for needed repairs
before the rush of the spring
season. Plow terraces before planting
to give them extra width and
height Repair screens on doors and
windows before the fly season opens.
If you have a small stream or other
source of water supply on your farm,
investigate the possibilities of irrigating
a small truck patch; irrigation
is good insurance against dry wea|
ther
The war commissar of Russia, told
j the eighteenth Communist party congress
in a Moscow address, that Russia,
with a vastly augmented Red
army and Red air force, is ready to
swiftly punish any aggression against
Russian territory.

Tomorrow's ''Dor Tag.
An alert and"confident group of college
boys from South Carolina unlI
vorslty will cross bats with Dick Cor|
butt's Syracuse Chiefs at Camden s
new baseball plant 111 the first dia|
mond fracas of the season In South
Ca rollna.
?
Some of the fans have been pestering
Manager Porter to put Prlmo
Carnero (iee on the mound for part
of the fracas. So you fans may see
this six foot nlnfe giant strut his stuff
Saturday.
Talked to Jack Corbott Sunday
morning and ho said ho had arranged
a game with Albany here on April 12
and was trying to close for a tilt with
the Charlotte Hornets of the Piedmont
Loague here on April 15. 1 hat
would wind up the exhibition games
and mark the farewell appearance of
the Chiefs here this year.
It'*
So. If the Charlotte game Is arranged,
this will be the corrected game
schedule of the Chiefs here In Camden?
Saturday, March 25?South Carolina

Friday, April 7?Greenville here.

Wednesday, April 12?Albany here.
Friday, April 14?House of David
here.
Saturday, April 15?Charlotte here.
This nine-game, schedule may he
extended to Include a second game
with South Carolina.
Well, it sure Is a swell menu to be
dished up to a hungry gang of baseball
folks.
We want to pay tribute to some
wonderful cooperation that the Columbia
State, the Charlotte Observer,
the Charlotte News and the Charleston
News and Courier, has been giving
the Camden News Service in
boosting Camden's sport program.
j And In particular we want to pass
the orchlcft to Abe Fennell. sports
editor of The State, who has been
giving us as many as five stories
dally on his page.
And here in Canulen wo have two
hot fans in Henry Niles and Charlie
Birchmore, editors of The Chronicle
and Messenger respectively, and who,
have used all of the publicity we have
tossed at them.
x
And now for hosses. The biggest
event of Camden's winter Bport program
is on tap for Saturday, April 1,
and we hope the weather man gi\es
us a nice sunny day. If he does, thej
tenth running of this great classic j
will be the largest attended and the
tinest In point of class ever held.
Oamden-trained horses ran true to<
form in the race program at Southern
Pines last Saturday and came away
with a major share of the honors..
Today a Camden horse will run In
the Grand National In England. It
is a Marion du Poift Scott horse and
is rated as a 40 to 1 shot. Uist year|
a Canulen horse. Battleship, rated 30
to 1, won the race.
Well, it just seems as if we cannot
g?-t away from baseball Just received
a letter from Jlill Daval, over at
Newberry, and he wants us to push
that baseball project and says he is
I w it h lis.
?
We're doing all we can and getting
i a lot of cooperation from the press.
' |f we can get a six-club league or!
yanized. it paves the way for more
n.uniug camps in South Carolina and
i yet. i; offers ^n opportunity
i for many of the cities in the league
| t), have farm teams. We'll bet a
i cuuikiit right now thai if Camden tu;ns
I ()lit irood crowds for the nine or ten
I exhibition games here this spring, our
! home town is going to get a team
and be a farm location for some big
?hot outfit
Mint M uller takes defeat very
! gracefully, but he. does a lot of think!
in*, and a great deal of that mind
activity concerns a lucky break that
Frank Woolen secured when his tee
shot on the lbth hole soared out of
. bounds, landed on top of the caddy
I house and then bounced back into the
i fairway That horse shoe shot cansled
Midler to falter and his second
' shot found trouble Woolen took a
! par four to win the first annual Kirki
wood golf tournament.
It was a swell match to watch and
the fact that the finalists registered
S2 and 83 for 13 holes showed how
closely they were matched. Wooten
J had Muller one down at the end of
the 17th but the latter dropped a long
putt for a par four on the 18th to
even the match.
?
Miss Jane Swords of Camden, won!
the women's tournament, defeating
Mrs. T. McKee Graham 1 up. T. McKee
Graham won the second flight of
the men's play, defeating J. Vallee,
3 and 2.
o ?
The final matches attracted a very
small gallery as most of the sportminded
folks had motored up to Southern
Fiue? to ?ee the i aeeu.

Enjoyed a nice chat with Mayor
Douglas of Charlotte last Wednesday
night, said chat being broadcast over
WBT. The mayor was curious regarding
Camden's fast expanding
sport program and asked many questions
which we endeavored to answer
to our best ability. Your Skipper
will chatter over the air waves from
WIS next week. It will be in the nature
of a booster talk for the Carolina
cup races and the Syracuse?Augusta
game of April 11. Hope yer listen.

Earl Blue, of the Columbia Reds,
spent Tuesday afternoon calling on
friends in Camden. Earl came over
with a bundle of posters advertising
the Cincy Reds-Boston Red Sox game
to be played at Columbia on Wednesday,
April 5.
Blue is mighty pleased that Camden
has a fine baseball plant and a
good team to train nere. He believes,
as we do, that baseball will be a major
sport in Camden from now on,
The only thing all of these baseball
experts stress 1b that Camden should
use every means to conserve the base
ball plant. In other wdMs, it should
not become a playground for promiscuous
baseball playing. The outfield
should be given every attention and
care during the summer and fall, so
that it will be in perfect condition
when another spring rolls around.
The baseball arena should be reserved
for baseball and baseball only.

Good crops at good prices . . . isn't that the
J kind of farm relief that farmers really want?
Since 1988, the brewing industry has bought 15
billion pounds of American farm products . . .
paying good prices, too.
!l Add to that, the million jobs that Beer has
made . . . and the fact that Beer pays a mil- /
I; | lion dollars a day in taxes: local, state, national.
!i To safeguard these advantages, the brew
ing industry stands ready to cooperate fully
with all law enforcement authorities. The j
brewers can enforce no laws . . . but they do
insist that retail beer outlets should give no
offense to anyone.
