Cruising

with
"Skipper"
Cyril Harrison, the new polo coach
ol lhe Cauideu polo cluh will he given
royal welcome by sport fans of the
Camden wtuter colony. Harrison U
kUown to many of them, as he played
here in several games a few years
back and was also active at Aiken.
A little'bird flew into the window
u few days ago and perched on our
left BhouldaLrAhd whispered Into our
good ear that the polo ranks here
might see Matt Ferguson riding Imthe
games this oomlng season.
*
i Matt used to do some polo ruling
a few years hack and was alwAyp a
glamorous figure on the hose, He
r has good riding ability aiu}/ showed
some excellent polo stuff/ We believe
that a year with the Camden
polo club will produce a two or three
goal rating for the chap from Chancefield
Plantation. ,
That world series broadcasting
brought some happy memories to
your Skipper. Bob Bison, the W. O.
N. broadcaster and ace sportcaster
of the Mutual network, is well known
to the writer and believe me, Bob
sure did a master Job of putting the
punch into the play by play of the
Yank-Reds battle. Bob Is Identified
with the Chicago Tribune and he
handles all of the big shot sport
events that are seut out over the
ether waves of W. G. N., the Tribune
statiou and all other Mutual affiliated
stations.
?
It sure sounded swell to hear that
snappy, alert and 100 per cent accurate
word picture of the world series,
as given by Bob.

When the caption Is written over
Wft baseball It sure will cover a lot
of sports history^
Just glancing through the sport
files we note a lot of events that are
of move than ordinary importance.
Take for instance ? Jimmy Dykes,
who took a team doped to finish in
seventh place and he carried through
to end the season in the first division
and then wallop the Cubs in the city
series. And let's not forget that $300
total in fines and 20 day suspension
ilia: was hung bn Billy Jurges of the
Giants and George Magerkirth, umpire.
for that fistic exchange. In the
misery column wo find the suspension
of Ray 9chalk as manager of
the Indianapolis AA team when that
team was in third place and headed
for a pennant. And by no means
must we forget the Dizzy Dean injury
sustained in that thrilling drama
"The Fable of the Leaping Table
Top."
Hats off to a hard-driving _ and
"Miartiy-coaclfed Sumter High school
t'.-tm The Gamecocks won from the
C.ciiclen Bulldogs 6 to 0 and any team
that can trim a Camden team dov
-s all the credit in the world.
We offer no alibi whatsoever. It was
: ' ^lettable that' Charley McCaskill,
-tie of the power talent in the C^id*
n fold, was on the hospital list and
did not get into the gamq. And
tri. nd and foe alike will admit that
the injury to Merrill In the early part
of the game was a ^distinct loss to
the Bulldogs. Nuff sed and Congrats
to the Sumter GamecockB. , May they

sen because next year Is another
srorv. The last time the Sumter lads
w re able to chortle with glee over
a win over Camden was back In 1935
when they won a thriller six to two.
In 1934 Sumter had won 19 to 0. But
in the past several years Camden has
been victor In the intercity tilts. In
1937 the Bulldogs turned the trick
33 to 0 and last year 32 to 0.
The South Carolina Gamecocks took
the worst beating of years up in

Care of Livestock
During Fall Season
Stressing the Importance.^ proper
attention in October to livestock foedlug,
breeding, and management problems,
County Agent W. C. MoCariey
Makes these suggestions:
Animal Husbaudry ? Sow some
small grain (barley, oats, or rye) for
winter hog erasing. Castrate pigs
when they are three to six weeks ot
Lage and use precaution to control the
screw worm.' Arrauge to feed out a
carload of steers and use the manure
on the farm. Turn beef cattle on a
reserved pasture which has not been
graved during latter part of summer,
Arrange to purchase purebred beef
bulls If needed. Observe the herds
for screw worm Infestation and give
treatment, if necessary.
Dalrylng^-Run cows on hay and
corn fields to^clean up^after harvest.
Feed each cow grain In proportion to
milk yield shown by milk records.
Cull low-produoiug cows to avoid
wintering them. Increase hay and
silage as pasture grasses die.?Secure
service of good purebred bull to make
calves more valuable. L?ime the pastures.
Plant winter grazing at once
using four bushels per acre of a mixture
of small grains with 15 to 20
pounds of crimson clover or vetch.
Poultry?Move pullets to laying
house before they come Into' full production.
Clean and spray the laying
house and delouse the pullets before
putting them in It. Keep corn before
pullets In order to get them In
good flesh' before comlug into egg
production. Dispose of any light
breed pullets that are not laying by
the time they are seven mouths eld.
Select and sell non-laying hens.
Warning Not to Sell
Immature Pecans
Farmers who have pecans to sell
should not destroy their markets by
dumping early immature nuts on the
market at give-away prices, County
Agent McCarley advises.
"In some localities,, growers are
starting to harvest pecans, and, unfortunately,
some of these green immature
nuts are__bjelii?L^iJiIa^d--?Xor
sale", says Mr. McCarley. "Growers
should realize that the sale of these
green nuts will establish a very low
market for all the good mature nuts
which are to follow. Prices being offered
for these green, immature nuts
are so lcnv that any advantage the
grower thinks he receives In the
matter of greater weight Is wiped out
several times."
The county agent points out that
the Pec.au Stabilization Association,
the grower organization responsible
for higher and more stable prices
last year, Is now negotiating with the
Department of Agriculture for a removal
of the pecan program. Following
a meeting of all Interested
parties In Washington on October 5
details will be available in ten days
or two weeks. The Stabilization Association
will try to hasten the matter
and Inform all growers of the
true situation.
green feed needed
V FOR HEALTHY FLOCK
Clemson ? Green feed provides
health for the flock and proHU for
the poultryman, says P. H. Gooding,
extension poultry specialist, reminding
flock owners that provision must
soon be made for ample winter grabjrvr
"Green feed supplies vitamins A
and G, particularly valuable for laying
hens " the specialist explains;
"since both of these vitamins are
necessary to get maximum egg production
and hatchability. Vitamin
A is necessary also to prevent an eye
trouble similar to roup. In addition
to its nutrtional advantages green
feed tends to" keep the brrds satisfied
and probably helps to prevent feather
pulling and cannibalism.
'"thus the birds should have access
to a green range at all times," Mr.
Gooding asserts, aiding that a double
yarding system would not only supply
an abundance of green feed but
It would also aid in combating diseases
and parasites.
. Mr. Gooding suggests that oats
seeded at the rate of fi bushels per
acre will make a sod dense enough
to afford grazing for a flock of hens
much longer than when lighter seedings
are made. Italian rye grass, at
the rate of 40 pounds per adre, also
makes an excellent winter grazing
crop for hens. It may be planted in
the drill or broadcast and should be
covered about one-half Inch deep.
"Stomping Numbers"'
' "A Negro who lost his security
card called at this office Monday and
asked us to 'stomp' his number on a
piece of paper for him, as he might
forget it. Editors can do most anything,
even 16 'somplng' numbers."?

turned over to Miss Fewell. Her talk
was the food budget for the family.
She stressed the need of milk in thd
diet for both young and old. Also
Jhe need of leafy and yellow vegetables
for the diet. Some thought

by, the length of the patience and determination
you have. Look backward

for progress. No effort of yesterday

Newspaper An Educator
"Next to the schools the newspaper
is the most lmportaut educational
force in the community," Alonxo
Ls Raker, an executive in a large
western printing plant recently suld
in an address.
He added. "In recent years the
moral and educational power of the
home and the church has receded, the
movies and the radio have to a great
extent replaced those characterbuilding
institutions. This has left
the Job of education to the schools
and the newspapers."
Refuting the claim that advertisers
dominate newspapers, Raker said
"If the newspaper ls controlled from
tho counting room, why do hundreds
of newspapers refuse liquor ads and
other types of copy considered objectionable
by some publishers?ls thlaj
