Cash From Cream
Checks For Chero
kee Farmers
GAFFNEY, July 2.—In Cherokee
county one finds a growing num
ber of farmers who sell cream on
a butterfat basis, using the skim-
milk to fatten pigs and poultry in
a simple cow-hog-hen scheme of
general farming, supplementary to
cotton. These are found especial
ly in the area toward Union coun
ty, having started with cows six or
seven years ago when the Union
Creamery, now moved to Rock Hill,
attracted their interest. Cream
trucks gather their product and
take it to Rock Hill for butter-mak-
:ng.
tenant farmers using cows, hogs,
and hens to supplement cotton
farming. For six years, says Mrs.
Blackwell, telling of their experi
ence, cream checks have been a
good source of income—almost a
life saver at times. Milking 10
cows fed on home-grown feeds con
sisting chiefly of oats, good pas-
China pigs and Black Giant chick
ens. Besides a cream separator
little equipment is needed for this
phase of dairying.

community farmer, has been selling
