I Se ' ’;gS- : : l : ;''Vv';:-f .'C' ‘4:- FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1950 THE NEWBERRY SUN ii;« FARMS AND FOLKS 4-H GROWS Nine hundred and fifty folks, including 4-H boys and girls, parents, and leaders ,attended the spring 4-H Rally Day in Florence, according to Assistant County Agent Fleming. Four-H keeps attuned to the times. The tractor maintenance 4-H Club at Reevesville, down in Dorchester, met 7 times during a month. Those boys are get ting ready to ride and operate those iron mules, according to their assistant county agent, L. B. Salley. Fifteen boys took the intensive tractor maintence course that Assistant Agent T. B. Tillman put on in Sumter, with the assistance of local dealers in their shops . And when their 4-H tractor maintenance school was com pleted in Kershaw, Assistant County Agent Robert Montgom ery put on a tractor driver’s con test, with 15 boys taking part. The local dealers cooperated in all of this. Extension Forester Barker in spected the 4-H school plantings of pines with County Agent Gray of Greenville at several schools. These trees were set a year ago last winter. Good stands and sat isfactory growth were found. In Laurens, Assistant Agent Williams had 21 of his 4-H tractor club members take part in the tractor operator’s contest that was judged by Clemson’s McKenzie and Whit Gilliam, as sistant county agent from Green ville. Over 300 folks attended this event and saw these young folks handle tractor outfits as handily as their elders handled a mule at their age. And thus goes the story of these 4-H youngsters in many a county. Getting ready for a mechanized future! SPRAYING WEEVILS TOO Spraying cotton with boll wee vil poisons is coming to the front, along with dusting and mopping. It has the one great advantage of daytime application that so often does not suit with dust on account of wind. Assistant County Agent Epps of Marlboro has quite a mechan ical turn. He was called upon by farmers to help make 17 trac tor mounted spray rigs the past spring. COLLETON DOINGS Turkish tobacco is being tried as far down the state as Colleton. County Agent Alford has two on farms there. (And County Agent McCarley of Kershaw has several too). Over 200 farmers attended their tractor clinic, at which Clemson’s McKenzie officiated and told and showed them the ways of the tractor in action. How to keep them up and get best service out of these iron mules was the theme of the day. And they are organizing a rural telephone cooperative there in Colleton.

This modern hog de velopment started there some 20- odd years ago when the county agent put on some feeding de monstrations to get rid of dis tress corn. According to the records of their little livestock shipping association, they are still grow ing in their hog business. I hap pen to have their April record before me. That month 166 far mers shipped 1,574 hogs that brought $48,276.69. And that isi usually not a heavy month, ac cording to County Agent King. Much early corn is planted there for hogging down. Some of the early hybrids are coming in good here, according to King. And then they hog off a lot of their later corn on out in the winter. As I heard one of their farmers say, “You can’t beat this hogging things off. They get a lot of picking around in the fields except the corn that does them good. And they usually stay clean and healthy out there.’’ BOYS ARE THAT WAY Did the phobia for counting things ever get a hold on you? I first had it as a kid, when riding the 18 miles to Columbia on our old wood burning train. I started county telephone poles as they moved by the window. It took just about an hour to negotiate those 18 miles. And by the time I got to Columbia I was dizzy from counting poles. I tried to stop, but couldn’t. I w'ould shut my eyes so I couldn’t see ’em, for I was tired doing that. But that did no good. I had their timing about right and my mind was estimating the time that each went by and my count ing went right on. For a long time I had to fight that thing before I could enjoy riding on a train. And in later years that same tendency to count things returns at times. I always count the pipes in the organ when I go to a new church. And the beams across, overhead, the panels the walls are divided into, the number of windows, the number of lights overhead, etc. I once went to a church for a while that bothered me a lot. I could never get the pipes in that organ counted accurately. I threatened to remain behind and go up there and count them by putting my hand on each one. I like trains. But I try to count the cars in every one of the moving monsters I behold. And that’s distracting and hard on the eyes.
