Less than 10 percent of the intended acreage got in on time last fall, due to wet weather. And since then it has been little if any better. So our chance for a large spring crop came and went, with very little chance for get ting it in. And, at best, spring grain is uncertain. But it would have been better than nothing, as is the case on vast acreage. Summer grain and forage crops thus assume new import ance. For our barns are to be filled with them, if anything, on most farms ill 1948. In this connection, think some of grain sorghum. Talk with neighbors who have tried it. Ask your county agent for de tails and varieties. It is equal to com, stands drought better, makes more, and grazes off good. The Place of Flowers Summerville—the place of flowers—great pines — azaleas, wisteria, and camellias—acres and miles of ’em! I went there late last year. Wisteria was shedding its pur pose upon the ground. Rain bows of azaleas were going out. And the stately camellias were dropping blooms and breaking into growth. But then the dogwood was staging its pag eant. And Summerville was still a heavenly place. The season of beauty there is just ahead. Crimson Clover Seed A farmer who grows a lot of -crimson clover seed for sale told me, “There is just one day you can gather it. The day be fore that it’s too green. And the next day it’s all shattered out.” And that’s about right. Some are cutting it a bit on the green side and windrowing it. Then when it dries out, they get it with a pick-up on their combines. Crimson clover is really a coming crop in this state. A few years ago we saw little of it. Now it is seen practically all over the state, and specially in the up country. You know we have a hard seed sort now that reseeds. I saw a fine field of it the other day over in Georgia that was seeded in 1941, and it is better now than it was then. Lime and fertilizer have supplied what it needs. Early Potato Plants Sweet potato growers in Dor chester have put in 20 new elec trically heated plantbeds, says County Agent King. Hogs and “taters” are grow ing into major crops down there. Local markets for both are a lot of help in getting ’em grown. Their weekly hog shipment runs into big money. And the platfor^ there at the station in St. George hums in late sum mer, fall, and early winter with sweet potatoes. Boys Are Thai Way , We never had a real bbat, but always wanted one. But it would not have been of much value in our tumbling streams of the Stone Hills. However, there were a few places we could have used it that we wanted to explore. There was the “Long Hole” be low the mill that was deep and still for a hundred or so yards. And there were a few other places we needed a boat to go. We trie’d to make several with rough boards and we got pine tar all over us trying to stop the cracks. But the things wouldn’t even float. The nearest thing to a boat we ever had was floating logs. After a big fain in the sum mer, we rushed to the creek. For an hour or two, it would be a raging torrent, until it ran down. It was then that we would wade in, mount floating logs, and ride ’em. This was dangerous, but we didn’t sense it. Logs would turn at times and throw us off. Luckily it didn’t happen in deep water, or I wouldn’t , be here now. For we were rather poor swimmers, and couldn’t dive at all. Too many rocks and shallow water there to ever learn. One afternoon about a half dozen of us were down below the Chapin ferry in Wateree creek having a great time. We rode logs right across Cousin Ed’s corn field and could only see a tassle or two sticking out. On across the submerged fence and through the pastures our logs went, bobbing up and down in the mad current and with boys hanging on. The logs piled up against the cane- break. From there we would fight our way out and run back up the creek for another ride down. The others were a little ahead of me and just made it to a big tree that was coming down root first. Ben sat on the trunk, leaned back against some limibs, and rode in majesty, while several others held on, with their heads just above water. As it left the field it hit a large standing tree firmly and there were some scratched bellies, and other parts, as they slid a bit on that rough bark. How country boys ever sur vive is a mystery. An All-see ing Eye must watch over them, or we wouldn.’t have many men. As Luck Would Have It I happened along after a car ran off of a bridge into a swamp in the Low Country and hurt some folks. An ambulance was right behind it and stop ped. Before they got the occu pants out of the wrecked car, a doctor drove up. And before ne could walk down the bank to them a highway patrolman hap pened along and stopped too.
