Several new members were also elect ed. Duting the first of this week a committee consisting of the editors cf two news papers, a banker, Mr. A. M. Kennedy, the two agricultural teachers, Messrs. Miley and LeCroy, along with Miss Elizabeth McNab, Home Dem. Agent, and H. G. Boyls- ton, County Agent, worked on making selections of some one, two or three faimers who may have an opportunity to qualify as Master Farmers. The Master Farmer Movement has been_ in progress for several years in a number of States. Last year it was put across in North Carolina and iMs’believed that this movement will lepresent an important phase in the development of a well balanced agri- cultuie. The secretary of Agricul ture, Mr. Jardine, feels that the movement is resulting in a great bene fit. The farmers of Barnwell County, witK their type of diversified agricul ture, ceitainly stand in a position to have an opportunity to qualify as Master Farmers. The above named committee hopes to be very careful to select the very best one, two or thiee farm- eis to present to the Progressive Farmer, which in co-operation with the Extension fflvision, will determine if there are any who qualify, and later during the piesent year, will be presented along with othera from different counties in South Carolina, a Master Farmer Certificate and Gold Medal to these.—Prepared by H. G. Boylston. J Farm Hands Increase, but Pay Rate Holds Washington, D. C.—There are more farm hfends than there were at this time a year ago. but the pay is r'botn tire same. NOTE:—Since putting the above in to type The People-Sentinel has been informed that A* D. Connor, Sr„ of Barnwell, has been selected as the Master Farmer of Barnwell County. DEMONSTRATIONS WILL BE OF MUCH INTEREST Arrangements have "been made" for thiee special demonstrations in Barn well—two with cottop and the other with com—which will continue for three years. J. W. Patterson, of Barnwell, and A. E. Corley, qf Dun barton, have the two with cotton, and Lee Creech, of Barnwell, the one with corn. These farmers are displaying great interest in carrying out the de tails of the demonstrations, as well as keeping accurate records. Farmers who may be interested aie urged to watch these demonstrations very closely from time to time during the growing season and later on it is planned to have a “farm tour,” at which time the different demonstra tions will be visited. Barnwell County has 19 farmers w’ho have entered the Five-acre Cot ton Contest. Most of the fields were visited last week, and several of them are showing up unusually good, con sidering the weather conditions * that have prevailed. Poultry demonstrations are creat ing more and more interest in the' county. The flock of W. H. Moody, Jr., at Kline on May 1st was leading the entire State in its class by an average of five eggs or more per bird. One can already see the benefits from these demonstrations by stimulating inter est in poultry among other farmers. Chas. O. Jones, of Hilda, one of the poultry demonstratois, sold more than $160 worth of broilers at one time at the poultry car recently. He then bought 100 well bred, ten weeks old pullets to be grown for his foundation stock. i * • , Other interesting demonstrations will be mentioned fhom time to time and everybody is invited to visit them as the opportunity affords and see what is going on. The lower volume of Industrial employment Is probably respon sible for the Increase of farm la bor, the bureau ot agricultural economics of the Agriculture de partiuent explains in describing the situation. The pay has been held steady by the relatively high industrial wages. The bureau reported the gen eral level of farm wages on April 1 at ICC per cent of the prewar plane, the same as on April 1 last year. The demand for farm hands was also re ported as about the same as at chls time last year. Mrs. Angus Patterson’s *1* / BEAUTY SHOPPE X PERMANENT WAVES, MARCEL WAVES.
