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.
