SOMETHING NEW
Back in the spring County
Agent Goodyear took me out to
Tom Squires’ place to see some
thing that was radically new.
We found his setting on the
level in contour rows with a
one-row tractor-drawn machine
that they were able to average
setting four acres a day w’ith.
Both Mr. Squires and his tenants
liked it very much. With it they
were able to plant each tenant’s
crop in a day. Thus the man
had just one age of tobacco. t
The first of their planting was
rowing good and good stands
had been secured. Little grass
was all over the ground, but they
were going to get that the next
day with the one and only cul
tivation the crop would get. With
it they put as much bed to it as
it would stand.
The machine opens a good deep
sot for the plant, two men feed
the plants in it, water squirts
out down there around the
roots, the soil is firmed in from
both sides by the openers that

THE NEWBERRY SUN
make a place for the fertilizer
an inch or two on each side of
the plant, and the plant is left
standing upright and firmly set
with nothing left but to grow.
I am sure all Who are familiar
with modern tobacco growing
will see the many novel features
of this method. It is being
watched with interest by many,
and only time will tell just how
it will work out under all con
ditions.
DON’T WORK 'EM WET
There are some things you
just can’t safely work when
they are damp. If you do you
will almost certainly cause leaf
troubles. Some of the more com
mon things are cucumbers,
watermelons, cantaloupes, and
all sorts of garden beans.
Yes, our plant disease and in
sect man. Nettles, cautions to
cultivate and hoe these things
only when the foliage is perfect
ly dry.
FRIENDS AT WORK
Cutworms had been bothering
our flowers. Last Sunday I was
sitting on te porch and a robin
lit there on the fence. It then
hopped on the ground, not over
25 feet from where I sat. I
picked up Tommy’s field glasses
and trained them on it. It look
ed as big as'a chicken then. It
turned its head to one side near
the ground. Then it picked
violently into the ground a few 4
times and came up with a big
cutworm. He picked at it until
it became limp. He hopped
around with it, laid it down,
held his head as he had before,
and picker there too, but only
got his bill dirty, no worm. He
went to a third place, repeated
the performance, and came up
with another cutworm. After he
had killed it, he took both of
them in his bill and flew away,
to his nest I Imagined.
I told a neighbor of it and
he complained that robins had
eaten most of his strawberries.
Strawberries are bound to be
better than worms. But as long
as he goes after worms as that
robin did, I can excuse him for
eating an occasional berry.
Did you even notice a bird
feeding its young, how constantly
through the day they bring
worms and more worms. With
out their help, bugs and worms
might be over-running this earth
of ours."

BOYS ARE THAT WAY
As a kid I never had enough
wheels. Wheels are charming
to a boy, and in our time there
were few. Spools were the near
est thing to a wheel that we had
in considerable quantity. A friend
down in the Dutch Fork, Herbert
Eargle, reminded me the other
day of the maze of spools he saw
running with strings all over
our well shed when I was a kid.
Yes, I rigged ‘em up with
strings for belts, and had them
powered to the windlass t?hat
drew the water from our well.
When we drew water the strings
were flying and the spools buz
zing all over the well shed. If
a spool hung up and wouldn’t
turn, I’d pull the nail that form
ed the axle and grease it with a
sort of slick soapstone clay that
showed up in a vein in the
side of the ditch down in the
pasture.
That’s one time I would draw
water without the folks making
me. I could imagine a great
factory there, as some of the
spools, clear out of sight on the
upper gables, would add their
squeak to the music,
