C. Nettles visited various county agents and. put on fence post treating demonstrations with a material that was new. It was chromated zinc chloride. County Agent Jackson of Wil liamsburg has kept an annual check on the green unpeeled pine posts thus treated there on two farms. On the Marvin P. Mitchum farm 13 such posts were treated in 1940 and put in a line of fence. At present aU of these are still in service and only one shows a bit of decay where the staples were driven in it. And on A. M. Gordan’s farm seven posts were treated and used. All seven Are still in use and five ar showing some decay where the staples entered. Enduring fence posts from small pine saplingfe that are neither split nor peeled is some thing new. Clemson’s circular 262 on ‘ILonger Life for Fence Posts” has Just recently been re vised and is free for the asking from your county agent’s office. It covers this zinc and other methods of treating posts. This form of zinc is a DuPont prdouct and can be gotten through the usual channels. Mr. Nettles says it comes considerably cheeper In the larger containers. CORN IN MARION - ™* • The 36 corn contestants in Mar ion county averaged 72.3 bushels per acre last year, according to County Agent King’s records. The 10 highest of these averaged 103.2 bushels per acre! “Hybrid strains led in yield per acre, with Dixie 18 leading and N. C.' 27 a close second,” he says. I was down in Clarendon when they delivered their corn con test prises. Ed Player was one of the winners with 104 bushels on his acre. That was his “Yord’s Acre,” so planned from the start. As County Agent Grainger hand ed him his prize check, he asked him if that didn’t belong to the Lord too. There is something genuine, fine, and gentle about the people of Clarendon. I like to go down there. Eleven of their farmer® made over 100 bushels of cor *. per acre on their prise fields the' past season. Except for a June drought, they would have had many more. TREE SETTER FOR MARLBORO Assistant County Agent Epps of Marlboro has quite a hand for machinery. He has constructed a pine tree setting machine, about which he says the following: “The local Ford tractor dealer furnished all material and will keep up the machine. It will be available free of charge to any farmer who plans to set pine seedlings on his farm.” THE LORD’S ACRE The grand old custom of plant ing an acre of something tor the Lord still holds at places. LUPINES KILLED The hard freezes of early win ter cleaned up the thousands of acres of blue lupines in the Allen- dale-Barnwell-Hampton area. County Agdht Searson * says there has been a lot of planting over. But it was mighty late for that. It has proven to be such a good crop that they Just hated to miss out with it this year and risked late replantings. County Agent Thompson says that 1 to 20 thousand acres were killed by the cold in Hampton county, y / It is t two-way crop. A great soil builder, and the seed make a good money crop in addition. Searson says somd yields of soy beans following lupines were as high as 30-odd bushels' per acre, while those following grain ran from 10 to 16 bushels. CATTLE IN ORANGEBURG County Agent McComb tells me that the 53 head of cattle recent ly sold by the Duncan Hereford Farm there averaged J870 each! Mr. Duncan has good cattle and they brought good money too. Shows what can be done with cattle on cotton’s lost acres. . BOYS ARE THAT WAY The first show I ever saw came to our Stone Hills in a covered wagon when I was about 7 years old. I think it was the first of any sort that had ever been there. That was shout 1902. The only ads it had were the gaudy pictures sketched on the canvas cover. They scared ns. And we carried the word home from school that Friday ( after noon. Everybody went, and the little schoolhouse was filled to over flowing that night. Money was very scarce, but they would ac cept some chickens and eggs for admission, or corn and fodder for their two homes. We arrived early, before good dark. The monkey, one of the main features of the ehow, was tied on the back side of the wag on to a spoke. We kids im mediately drifted back there. We were eating some cookies we HIS SAUSAGE TURNED TRICK TALMO, Ga., Jan. 21—A $600,- 000 business was done in 1950 in a North Georgia community of 147 families by a man who 25 years ago peddled sausage from a buggy. His gross income from a pork and beef packing plant in 1949 reached ^almost a half mil lion, and the increase last year was due to a new $30,000 addi tional processing plant which was completed about six months ago. He is R. H. McEver, propietor of the McEver Packing Company at Talmo, Georgia. It was In 1925, Mr. McEver says when he got started in the meat business. ‘‘I killed a large hog that was more than the tami- iy could use. I made it into sausage and sold it to a cafe and the chief of police. They liked it, and I’ve been making sausage ever since.” The McEver plant has ex panded since then. An average of 125 hogs and 75 cows is slaughtered every Week in a mod ern building that covers over an acre of ground near where that first hog was butchered 25 years ago. The plant includes six cold storage' lockers, and three trucks make deliveries every week to an area, qf about 100 miles around Talmo. The new 90 by 20 foot addition, a fireproof construction of brick and steel, includes a 20 by 20 foot freezer locker. had carried in our pockets. They were hard and ‘crunchy. We threw one to the monkey. He picked it up. bit on it, but it was too crisp for his liking. So he dropped it in a salmon can that they had given him some water in. He left it in the water to soften. When he reached in for it, it had gotton perfectly soft and went between his fingers. We thought that awful funny and ail laughed with glee. The monkey looked at us curiously a moment. Then be poked his hand down there and stirred the soft cooky and , water togteher, turned the* can iip and drank it 'down. Well, sir, we thought that was one of the funniest things we had ever seen. Space it out. Next week I’ll tell you about that show. NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDERS’ MEETING OF J. H. CLARY CLOTHING COMPANY NOTICE is hereby given that a special meeting of the stock holders of J. H. Cldry Clothing Company, a corporation, will be held at the storeroom of the Company, 1214 Main Street, New berry. S. C., at 4 o’clock in the afternoon of Monday, March 6, 1951, for the purpose of consider ing and acting upon a resolution then and there to be offered, looking to the liquidation and winding up the affairs of the cor poration, for dissolving and sur rendering itsecharter, and for the transaction of any other business connected with said liquidation. February 1, 1961 J. H. Clary President.' 39-2t-c Mr. McEver says that his suc cess didn’t come easily. “In fact,” he said, “the first sausage I started out with in 1925 never did seil. Instead, it graveled 'H road.” Packing the sausage in a lard can, Mr. McEver tied ^t with a small piece of wire to the back of the bur-' r y and began his trek to the heart of the little farming community. ( “I had just reached the top of a long hill when I heard a thud back of the buggy. I turned just in time to see that can of sausage rolling down the hill.” Mr. Mc Ever went back home for more sausage, and that day the Mc Ever Packing Company was born. From 1925 to 1934', all work at the plant, most of it by Mr. Mc Ever and his wife, was done by hand. Old fashioned ice boxes were used for storage of the meat. In 1930 Mr. McEver hired his first two employees. Four years later the Georgia Power Company built an electric) line to Talmo. Mr. McEver Im-. mediately built his first cold storage locker, a 10 by 8 foot room which he constructed him self. The cooler was enlarged in 1939, and butcher and sausage rooms added. Another cooler was completed in 1946. MAYBANK, ORDERED TO R£?T , WASHINGTON. Jan. 21— Al though Senator Burnet R. May- bank has bpen ordered by his doctors to take a “complete rest” at Key West where he.Is recup erating from a recent Illness, the energetic lawmaker is keeping in close touch with happenings on Capitol Hill. Seldom a day passes that his associates in the Senate do not receive a long, hand-written let ter from the Senator.) The clerk of the Banking and Currency Committee of which Maybank, is chairman has already received several of these letters pertain ing to housing legislation and general committee business, Several members of his office staff have also received letters in the distinctive handwriting of the senator, who has been ^xlled irom his Washington haunts, but continues not only to keep up with correspondence, but to rorig- nate it. Besides the long letters, the senator keeps in touch with his office by telephone and'in addi tion, sends out a steady stream of postcards to his Acquaintances in Washington. Onef of these acquaintances re marked yesterday, “1 hope the senator is writing these while he is on the beach—that is about as near a vacation as tie will ’ ever get.” WANT ADS For Expert Repair Bring Your Radio and 'Tetevleion GEO.

But it’s rare when doing your duty turns out to be the best way to satisfy your heart’s desire. That’s what’s so mai^velous about this ’51 Buick. If you picked a car just for the lift it gives you— your pride in its power—or its generous comfort— you couldn’t make a better choice. 4 ■ ' . . But make note of this: That gleaming new push-bar forefront, which greets your eye with flashing beauty, contains 25 grille bars made of stamped steel, individually mounted to "give” and come back unharmed. Combined with a massive, wrap-around bumper, fortressed by two stalwart "bumper bombs” and two added uprights, it gives unsurpassed protection. v Springs of stout spiraled steel on all four wheels let your wheels curtsey over bumps, while you ride , level as a lance. But they also need no servicing, and breakage is virtually unknown. Buick’s great-powered engine is a Fireball, won- drously lively and eager at the mere touch of your toe —but it also wrings extra power from every drop of fuel, and has the mechanical perfection '• x. * " vst t- t -.r vix> „ a : . V , that cbmes only from years of experience with this basic design. ' Dynaflow Drive gives you effortless smoothness of control—but it also eliminates clutch repair bills, saves tires, eases strain on the whole driving mechanism, from engine to differential. The road-steady gait of a Buick assures relaxed security — and is also evidence that you have a durable, deep-silled, X-braced frame beneath you. However you check it, you’ll discover this: The things that make you yearn for a Buick on first acquaintance, are the very same things that make Buick such a smart long-time buy.
