THE NEWBERRY SUN Greenwood, S, C., September 4—More than twenty of the four hundred communities in the United States, Alaska, and Hawaii, cooperating in The Green wood Plan National program for piercing the Iron Curtain and promoting world freedom and peace are located in South Caro lina. Among those included are: Aiken, Charleston, Hartsville, Newberry, Sumter, Winnsboro, York, McCormick, 4 Georgetown, Batesburg, Ocean Drive Beach, Leesville, Rock Hill, Lancaster, Gaffney, Columbia, Holly Hill, Orangeburg, Greenwood, Union.

From the National Headquarters they re ceived comprehensive Greenwood Plan Information Kits. The Greenwood Plan Informa tion Kit includes such informa tion as how to set up The Green wood Plan-type Committee, sug gested committee representation, sub committees, prizes and pro cedures, suggestions for the pro gram committee, suggestions for a speakers’ bureau, suggestions for an idea-soliciting committee, study groups, etc. The very latest and best ma terials on communism are made available along with all of the other supplies at no cost to the local community. The kit also contains Greenwood Plan bro chures and posters.

The State Crusade office will also choose the best entry from the state— to be granted the state-level award at the close of the Crusade campaign in September. A panel of nationally known figures will judge the ideas of the forty-eight state winners and select the three best ideas. The three national winners will re ceive an expense paid trip to Germany where they will visit the World Freedom Bell Shrine in Berlin on the first anniversary of the Bell’s dedication—United Na tions Day, October 24. In Munich they will personally broadcast their prize-winning ideas over Radio Free Europe’s transmitters to the • captive people behind the Iron Curtain.

E. Eleazer, appearing in many papers throughout the state, will be read with interest by many in this section: “Clifford Smith pf Newberry, one of the top farmers of the state, says “Lespedeza sericea is the poor man’s alfalfa.’’ “He grows both sericea and alfalfa hay. He thinks sericea has been greatly underrated. It has been planted mostly on very poor land and not fertilized. And forage w’ould be poor under those conditions. But planted on good land, fertilized, and cut at the right time, he says it is good hay. And it cures so quick. He was cutting it in the morning after the dew dried off, and then raking and hauling it in the afternon. Thus it is not exposed to weather like alfalfa and other hays. “I recall this incident that hap pened when a crowd of us went down to Auburn, Alabama. They are working out a yeaf-around system for carrying beef cattle on pasturage. They pointed to hillside of sericea. Said they liked it a lot. It carried their herd during the hot months of summer when other pastures went down. A farmer in the crowd asked. How do you get ’em to eat it? And I will always re member the answer. Fertilize it and they will. “The main reason most folks haven’t liked it is that it gets tough quick, and it is not relished by stock as hay nor green grazing then. “So the point is, cut it for hay on time. Or, if the cattle can’t hold it down, either mow it or get more cows. Our pasture men, Woodle and Craven, tell me that it definitely has a place in our grazing program. But it must be managed right, or you won’t like It. And, by the way, the time to sow it is just ahead of us now.’’ State Forester Says Forest Fires Major Problem To Woods Owners The South Carolina Fores Fire Control Coordinating Com mittee, composed of Assistant State Forester J. R. Tiller and staff, district forestry office staffs and county forest rangers, met at Hotel Sarsfield in Camden, on August 27 and 28 to discuss various forest fire control pro blems, according to E. L. Middle- swart, District Forester of New berry. Monday’s session covered pro posed district and equipment training schools which will be held soon in each of the seven forestry districts of the state. Also, plans were made for an intensified forest fire prevention campaign. State Forester Charles H. Flory stated that the high annual fire occurrence of from 5,000 to 8,000 fires each year was the major I problem confronting woodland j owners, the State Commission of Forestry and other conservation agencies today. There should be fewer than 2,500 forest fires oc- curing annually in the state. Cutting down on the great num ber qf fires could be accomplish ed through the intensified fire prevention and educational pro gram being planned, according to Mr. Flory. These days’ sessions included a discussion of the many local fire control problems confronting each county forest fire fighting force. Those attending the committee meeting from the Newberry Dis trict were E. L. Middleswart, Dis trict Forester, Newberry; Melton L. Wall, District Ranger, dew berry; and R. E. Patrick, Unit Ranger, Winnsboro. * WATCH AND JEWELRY REPAIRS BROADUS LIPSCOMB WATCHMAKER 2309 Johnstone Street 4 good rules for driving near schools • • • |« 4 4 ILVLM 1 DO' Deed Transfers Newberry No* 1 J.

On July 4, the Glorious Fouth, his wife presented him with his twentieth child. This time it is a boy, a ten and one-eighth pounder. Mr. Rowe is up in his sixties. He has been married twice and had some dozen of more children by his first wife. Mr. Rowe is Sa luda’s far-famed candidate for public office. After all of his many races for nearly every of fice in the book including some quite creditable showing*, he may yet be elected from the support of his own household at the rate that he is going as the proud father of a mounting total of children already numbering a score. Well, there is one thing about it, Buster is just as youth ful as his children in spirit and he takes on active interest in many things between politics and being one of the best farmers and church members in Saluda coun ty. Congratulations, Buster and may you attain the many goals that you are still striving to achieve.” POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR MAYOR OF NEWBERRY I hereby announce myself a candidate for re-election to the office of Mayor of Newberry, and pledge myself to abide the results of the elections.
