Turkeys Graze Too Out in nature, wild things graze for a living. Grazing is the natural thing, and we have long recognized 1 it for livestock. And under the old plan of poultry running loose, it got its needed grazing too. But now with streamlined methods for producing poultry, planned and planted grazing crops become necessary, if the poultry is to get green stuff regularly. And our turkey man, W. B. Nesbit, says this is specially true and important for turkeys. He says soybeans have proven to be very 'good for turkey grazing. Lespedeza, pearl mil let, and sudan grass have prov ed profitable dn this role too. One grower found that his 2,000 turkeys required two ad ditional 'bags of oats and one of mash a day after taking ’em off of 'green grading. Nesbit says it will take something like one acre of grazing on good land for each 100 turkeys. And for fall and winter graz ing, turkey growers are finding grain sorghum valuable.

Huff man, when I was with County Agent Ezell in Newberry coun ty several years ago. Ezell says it saves something like a dol lar per bird on feed cost. And! the turkeys clean it up, even the dead fodder and steins. It can be safely planted out in June. Too Heavy I knew I had been hitting the food rather heavy in re cent months. But didn’t know what it has done to me until I weighed a few weeks ago. I weighed 200, as much as a sack of fertilizer! And that was too much to ;be carrying around. Did you ever try to Mft a sack of fertilizer? Right then and there I de cided to do something about it. I didn’t go on any stringent diet. I just stopped gorging on the good things I liked. And now I am back down to par, and can wear those last sum mer pants in' comfort Better Handling of the Woods When the paper mills first came thoughtful folks feared' What pulpwood cutting would do to our diminishing wood lands. And many of the early cuttings were ruinous. But soon the voice of the forester was heard, and better practices crept into the woodlands. I don’t mean to say that all of the cuttings now made in the woods are Wise ones. But we see m!ore and more folks farming their woodlands, tak ing out what needs to come out, cutting stumps low, keeping fires out, etc. The paper mills now employ experienced foresters. I have heard these fellows advise farm ers to sell the saw timber that needed to come out and then make a pulpwOod cutting from needed thinnings and tops. In these cases fine working tim- berlands were left, and not wasteland, after the cut was made. Clemson’s extension foresters, Barker, Hall, and Mbrbut are WE WILL BE CLOSED THE WEEK OF JULY 4th. Monday, July 3 through Saturday, July 8 W. E. TURNER, JEWELER FENNELL’S JEWELRY STORE T. M. ROGERS & SON, JEWELERS available through your county agent to help yon with wood land problems. And the state and district foresters are at your disposail too. We need to use these men, for we are just beginners with tree manage ment in South Carolina*. They can direct us to a safe and pro ductive future for our wood lands. I Killing Field Mice Field mice are quite a pest in melon and cucumber fields. They eat the seed and thus ruin stands*. In Barnwell they really went after them the past spring. County Agent Shelley distrib uted 2,150 pounds of strychnine treated rolled oats. This was scattered very lightly on the exposed sides of melon and cu cumber fields, where the mice would come from rubbish and old stray fields. Results were very good, he tells me. Farmers Clubs I like farmers’ dubs. We have a few of ’em scattered over the state. And where you see one you find a community that’s up and 1 hustling. I have told you of a number of them I’Ve visited. The one in th<$ fine Oakway community of Oconee is puttng on a big day July 4th, with barbecue and campaign speaking. BIG BLOW An April windstorm that swept across Kokomo, Indiana was so strong it blew down a device atop an airport roof to measure wind velocity. Every one agreed it was a strong wind.

PURCELLS 44 YOUR PRIVATE BANKER” Phone 197 Boys Are That Way As a kid 1 learned a lesson in perserverance and reward from old Frank. He was the trusty bay horse that largely raised us. On al ternate days he pulled the bug gy of the country doctor, my father, through the Stone Hills. And on the other days, when he drove old Bill, a spirited white horse, we plowed him there on our small farm. At times I rode with my fa ther. W!e would leave home early and usually get back aftetf dark. He had an office at Peak, six miles away. Miany a 'time we left there about an hour by sun on a cold winter day and would arrive at home fagged' and weary, as the lamp was shining through the window and the folks were at the sup per table. That road was a quagmire 1 most of the 'time in winter. I well remember when it was at its worst. It had snowed and thawed and recrusted over each night. The long stretch after we climbed the hiH coming out of Peak was a sea of stiff mud. Old Frank went after it meth odically. He had too much sense to show spirit then. He tugged away and you would hear each foot pop as it camel from the deep mud that was about as thick as putty. The harness and singletree squeaked, under their burden. About) half way the hamestring broke and he lunged out of his harn ess. We got out in the deep cod mud and fixed it with a piece of leather cut from the check-re in, and soon were un der way again. Although it was near freez ing as night came, old Frank was wrapped in a hot lather as he dragged us on. We didn’t use whip nor lines. Just let old Frank have it as he would. And he went about it in thd best fashion. He tugged and pulled, zigzagging at times to Sessions-Lipscomb Parkes-Coggins Miss Nelie Lyim Sessions of Newberry (became the bride of Edwin Marshall Lipscomb, Jr., cm Saturday evening, June 10 at 8:30 o’clock in the Central Methodist Church of Newberry.

The bride’s mother wore a gown of bittersweet lace with rhatching stole and a white or chid corsage. The mother of the bridegroom wore a navy chiffon gown and a white or- :hid corsage. A reception honoring the bri- get h better angle at the puli, ever pressing on towards home. I think his steadfastness and perserverance is explained by the fact that he knew there was a dry stable, fodder, and com awaiting at the other end. Hie just wasn’t going to stay out, in that inhospitable mess and we were the beneficiaries. And old Frank’s motives were largely our own. We toil and sweat through the weary days so that the fodder will be in the trough, and the place will foe dry and warm when we get home. Miss Marcia Parkes of Syd ney, Australia, and James Fran cis Coggins of Newberry were married at 8 pun. June 8 in Aveleigh Presbyterian church of Newberry. Rev. Neil E.
