I FARMS AND FOLKS Women were emancipated and then they turned the tables and put many a man in captivity. By J. M. Eleazer Persistent Weeds With chemicals and flams, we are fighting weeds. And all the new skills of culture ar* used to , the utmost in saving our crops from weeds and grass. The best men in our land discussed weed control at the recent cotton mechanization conference at Bennettsville. And all of the engineers see that problem as the main one facing mechanization of farms. With machinery, one man can keep a lot of middles clean. But the problem that hadn’t been completely solved yet is how to get the weeds that are in the drill with row crops. With chemicals, we are clean* ing up certain bad weeds in vast areas. Thistle and mustard have been practically elimi nated from the grain fields of whole counties. County agents have put on demonstrations and much custom work is done by tractor-spraying outfits. All of this is helping a lot. But it remains,, to be seen if we can exterminate most of the troublesome weeds from our fields. We knock them back to a practical standpoint, and that is good. We know that some weed seed will lie dormant in the soil for great periods of time, decades! Yes, the slumbering weed sleeps on until its good day comes. Then nature smiles and it comes forth again, if vigilance is relaxed, to plague the farmer once* more. Some weed seed will not germinate until they are brought near the surface. Leave them buried and they sleep on.. Turn them up to the warmth and power of the sun, and men know once more that they are there. Knowing these things the scientist and the practical far mer are waging an unrelenting war on weeds. Chemicals, fire, culture, and management all go into it. But out of all of that, the final word has not yet LITTLE ITEMS OF INTEREST ABOUT FOLKS YOU KNOW SHEA.FFER5 SHEAFFER’S SENTINEL DELUXE THREESOME Choice of brown, blue ot black with richly-chased metal caps Pen, $15.00; Pencil, $5.00; Strat- ©writer, $10.00.

Mrs. Danny Lambeth and daughter, Katy of Georgetown, spent last week kin the home of Mrs. Lambeth’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. Derrill Smith on Main street. They were joined here for the weekend by Pro- come. But progress is being made. One of the greatest hin drances here in the heavy rain fall area is that we have never found the remedy for a wet spell. Weeds still have their day then. Back Home H. H. Herlong of Edgefield told me that five of his boys have finished Clemkon. All had good jobs scattered over the country before the war. They all went to war. When they got out, all live came and settled back home. He said they were tired of being away from home. Good sound farm people like that don’t transplant very easi ly. They are attached to the rugged red hills from which they sprang. There satisfaction, contentment and home are to be found. Nowhere else! And what else matters? I could see that Mr. Herlong was proud when he told me that. He and I beat out of a meeting at Clemson’s Farmers’ Week and sat 0 ut there in the shade and talked. I have known many of those Herlongs of Sa luda and Edgefield. And they are all fine substantial folks that know how to make their land yield its plenty. And everyone of them I know is an interesting talker, a good listener and likes athletics. Big Baby They tell me I was about the biggest baby ever bom in Dutch Fork. I forget how many pounds I weighed. Seems like they said it was 14 pounds and some ounces. But I heard of one that weighed a lot more than that the other day. The folks didn’t have any scales; so they bor rowed some from a neighbor. The baby weighed 37 pounds and 9 ounces! They were as tounded, until they learned that those were the scales that this neighbor weighed his fish with. And that put me to wonder ing, for there were some fish ermen in our part of the Stone Hills, too. Now’s The Time He whose cows are to graze Continued on Back Page fessor Lambeth.
