ThU mmp tfumg that South Carolina U more than 'half forested.
About 58 percent of the state's 29,857,000 acres are classified as
best suited for tree production. South Carolina farmers own
4£62,909 acres of forest land, or an average of 35.4 acres of
timber per farm.
FARM AND FOLKS
Commander 0. D. Freeman of The American Legion, De
partment of South Carolina, this week announced Legion
sponsorship of a “More Trees for South Carolina" program
being launched this month. The program will continue indefi
nitely.
“The Legion recognizes South
Carolina's woodlands as the
source of raw materials that are
vital for the nation's defense as
well as its peacetime economy,"
Commander Freeman declared.
“With wise use, woodlands can
mean cash crops and greater
profits for South Carolina land
owners, as well as increased flow
of raw materials for the state’s
forest industries."
According to information fur
nished by State Forester C. H.
Flory, the state has more than
1600 wood-dependent mills and
plants which together provide
employment for more than 80,-
060 South Carolinians. Even
though woodland owners in
South Carolina are harvesting
an average of 20 million dollars
worth of tree crops each year,
this cash income could be doubled
if better forest management
were applied especially on farm
^ woodlots.
» Nelson L. Peach, of the S. C.
State Commission of' Forestry
and Director of “More Trees for
South Carolina," is currently dis
tributing thousands of booklets
to forest land owners. Entitled
“Cash Crops from South Caro
lina Woodlands," v the booklets
pointout advantages to be gained
from wise forest land manage
ment
Additional copies of the book
let are available from county
agents, county rangers, voca
tional agriculture instructors and
the State Commission of For
estry in Columbia. Filmstrips
and motion pictures are also be
ing shown throughout the state.
These tell woodland owners how
to make money by growing trees
as a crop.
Cooperating with the Ameri
can Legion in sponsoring “More
Trees for South Carolina” is the
S. C. State Commission of For
estry, Clemsdn College Extension
Service, and the American For
est Products Industries of Wash
ington, D. C., a public service
organization sponsored by the
nation's leading pulp and paper,
lumber and plywood manufac
turers.

woods and stopped by the country
store at the foot of the hill be
low our house. A few other
kids were there, and we sat in
the warm sun there on the low
front steps. They were fascinat
ed by that gun. I let each one
hold it a minute. I took it apart
and cleaned every part with my
handkerchief, making it go into
the cracks and seams with knife
point. I put it back together and
played on with it. I was scrap
ing a little rust off near the
plunger with my knife blade and
just happened to push against the
plunger. It wouldn’t go in, as
I knew it should be unloaded. I
pushed against it harded and it
wouldn’t go in. I thought I’d
snap it and make that plunger
go in as it should.
Alas, it was loaded! Off it
went. Kabinyow! Right by lit
tle Jim’s head. He could just as
easily been right in front of it.
He was a devoted little cousin
w r e had raised. Although it
deafened him a • bit for the mo
ment, he laughted right out, as
did the others, excited and thrill
ed They were even younger than
I and did not sense the near
tragedy.
But I didn’t laugh. It froze me
with . its terrible possibilities. I
had seen what & similar incident
has done for a man’s foot. And
I could see little Jim's head in
that same fix. I couldn’t sleep
that night. From then on I lost
interest in guns and was never
much for hunting. And I don’t
know until yet when I put that
shell in that gun. For that rea
son, all guns are dangerous to
me! They get loaded when you
don’t know it.

Edith Wilson, 17, of Union, re
ceived a $300 college scholarship
as national canning winner from
the Kerr Glass Co., for har exten
sive work in selecting and pre
serving fruits, vegetables, poultry
and meat produced on the home
farm. Encouraged by her mother
—a former 4-H’er who also won a
trip to Chicago for baking prize
biscuits — Edith has canned a
total of 6,711 quarts of food. Her
efforts have provided well bal
anced meals the year round, and
have reduced family food bills
considerably.
National champion in the frozen
foods project was Eleanor Reid,
16, of Richburg, who also was
awarded a $300 college scholar
ship and a trip to the Chicago
Club Congress by International
Harvester for her consistent ef
forts in freezing all kinds of food.
With 3,660 quarts of fruits and
vegetables, plus 2,850 pounds of
meat to her credit, Eleanor has
successfully experimented in
freezing cakes, biscuits and pies.
Food from the family’s well-
stocked locker is always in de
mand for those unexpected dinner
guests and extra special refresh
ments.
Elizabeth Mitchell, 17, of Wad-
malaw Island, national winner in
the Home Grounds Beautification
program, can thank Mrs. Charles
R. Walgreen of Chicago for her
recent trip to the 4-H Club Con
gress held in the Windy City. Her
conversion of overgrown, weed-
infested farm grounds into orderly
lawns, colorful flower beds, and a
fruitful orchard, has resulted from
six years of hard work. In addi
tion to the new beauty, Elizabeth
added money value to the farm
stead by constructing a filled-in
oval driveway.
All of these activities are conducted under the direction of the
Extension Service of the State Agricultural College and USDA co
operating. •
