was the answer. “How can that
be?*’ the great preacher asked
Summerfield replied with a ques
tion. in the words of Jesus in
speaking to Nicodemus, “Art thou
a master in Israel and knowest
not these things?”
By faith in Christ, men may be
hern again and enter into new life
for the soul. Reader, do you trust
in Jesus as the savior of your soul?
John Wesley was long without the
assurance that he was the re
deemed child of God. a new-born
«ww But in his memorable experi
ence in the Aldersgate Street
Church in London, as one was read-
faf the Scripture, he felt his heart
strangely warmed, and was given
the assurance that God for Christ’s
had forgiven his sins and
made him an heir of everlasting
life. Let us find such an assurance
through our faith in Jesus Christ,
the Savior of men.
REMEMBER"
BY THE OLD TIMERS
From T. J. Shaffer, Caldwell,
Idaho: Allow me to add to your
collection of Old Timers. I am
one of them, as I was hatched
at Miller Missouri. 76 years ago
on June 29. Do you remember
the phonograph that didn’t have
any hem? We would pay a nickel,
put the tubes in our ears and
listen to the music.
Whenever we went to picnics,
those were the good old days.
There were 13 of us kids in the
family. Families came from miles
around and spread their dinner
out on the ground. Best of all, they
gave away a 100-pounds of green
coffee to the largest family and
we always got the coffee.
In those days, they parched their
own coffee and ground it. Could
tell a lot more if I had the space,
but will close and say “hurrah”
for old Missouri. If it is like it
was when I left there in 1898. 1
would be there.
From an Old Timer, Memphis.
Tennessee: I remember when the
mighty Mississippi River was truly
the “king.” A river pilot was a
man of distinction, even of fame,
if he was truly master of the surly,
ever-changing Mississippi. People
who lived and worked in the
Southern lowlands respected the
mighty water as a threat that
might anytime become a swirling
mass of destruction, lashing out
across the land to uproot and de
stroy the things man so laboriously
built with his hands. The chains
of steel and concrete that now
bind this mighty giant make him a
servant and we old timers wonder
if he is content to be so.

The two-dollar bill used to have
a bad reputation, but today it is
the only one that will pay for a
dollar’s worth of anything.
Attention Farmers!
Give that grazing crop a “shot in the
Arm” with some Chilean Nitrate of Soda
for quick results. Time to put it on Bar
ley, too.
Most of us wait too late. We also have
some A. N. & L. It’s not too early to put
that on any grain crop.

HAIL THE HEN
There was a time when poultry
products didn’t amouift to much in
South Carolina. But now they do.
Our farm marketings of poultry
products now amount to more than
those from cattle and hogs com
bined. And who’da thought that!
Yes, the old ben and her brood
are not spectacular. But they are
popular. And you’ll find ’em
everywhere. Add all of their lit
tle bits together, and you have a
giant whole. And it is growing
fast, specially the broiler part.
Clemson has long worked with
poultry. Demonstration flock rec
ords for years have pointed the
way to profits from poultry. Ex-
tensibn poultry and turkey spec
ialist have worn paths to poultry
projects in every quarter. The 4-H
boys and girls have pioneered from
the very start in this. Early they
learn the fundamentals in their
club demonstrations. And many
of them grow into practical poul-
trymen by the time they are on
their own.
I’ve just looked over the dem
onstration flock records for the
past year hene In P. H. Gooding’s
office. The leading flock in egg
production in that group is that
of Mrs. G. L. Strong of Williams
burg county. Her 249 White Leg
horn hens averaged 232.5 eggs
each the past year. And, folks,
that’s good in anybody’s language.
Next was the 800 flock of Par-
menter Reds belonging to W. H.
Moody of Kline, Barnwell county.
They averaged 228.1 eggs for the
year, according to County Agent
Shelley. Then came the 822 White
Rocks of Robert Robich of Dillon,
with an average of 205.3, and Miss
Edith Coleman of Fairfield, whose
225 New Hampshire Reds averag
ed laying 205.3 eggs for the year.
So, hail the hen! She is con
tributing a lot to the farm folks
of the state. And a good part about
her is she is small enough for the
Smallest operator.

COASTAL BERMUDA
In late October County Agent
Johnson of Beaufort said:
“Growth was checked on the 125
acres of Coastal Bermuda planted
in February and March on Bill’s
Island Plantation at Bluffton. A
herd of 45 registered Santa Ger-
trudis cattle has grazed this area
since June. During that time ap
proximately a ton and a half of
hay per acre was cut from it. This
new grass is very promising. in
our area.”
Every county in the state had
similar demonstration plantings
of this grass last winter and
spring. And in most cases the
growth the past summer, which
was very dry, was phenomenal.
Our pasture men, Woodle and
Turner, think a lot of if. And so
do the farmers I’ve seen who have
tried it.
SCIENCE IN THE TOBACCO
FIELD
, Science, the very latest in
science, has sure taken hold of to
bacco fields in our state of late.
And, man, look where the yields
and the quality have gone!
This awakening was surely
started by H. A, McGee, when he
came as Clemson’s extension ’to
bacco specialist in 1932. He car
ried the latest in science to every
nook and corner of t^e tobacco
area, through the local county
agents, until he retired a few
years ago. And since then that
work has been ably carried on by
J. M. Lewis.
County Agent McCord of
Georgetown tells me that interest
is keen among tobacco growers
there for treating plant beds
against both weeds and nematodes,
and also the fields too against the
latter pest. And they are more in
terested in their soil condition,
and in the use of acid-forming fer
tilizer, where soils are too sweet
for best tobacco growth. And
the other agents in the tobacco
counties will tell me the same
story. Details for doing all of those
things are readily available there
from your county agent.

I’ve never been much for hunt
ing. The only bird I ever shot
was a rabbit, and I got it with
a rock.
It happened this way. My broth
er was an inveterate hunter. When
I was about 14 and he 17 we had
a good snow just before day. That
made prime rabbit hunting, for a
track meant a rabbit was near. He
didn’t have anyone else to go
with him; so he prevailed on me.
We cut burlap bags into three-
inch strips and wrapped our shoes
and legs to the knee. We had no
leggins, boots, nor rubbers then.
And out we lit. He made me
take a gun too.
That morning he did the finest
shooting I had ever seen. We saw
the tracks of 10 rabbits up to
noon, When we came home for
dinner. He got every one of them
with the first shot. Some of them
were in rough terrain too, and re
quired a quick shot. He tried to
make me take some of the easy
shots. But I wouldn’t. I knew
when his gun cracked there would
be more meat for the) pot. While
mine was sure to just result in
noise.
As we were nearing the house,
up through the orchard, I saw a
track a?d called to him. He told
me he wasn’t coming, for me to
shoot that one myself. I tracked it
to a small low pine bush. And
back under that shelter he sat. I
was so close that it would have
torn him up to shoot, that is, if
I had hit him, a possibility for
which I was not at all sure. I
broke out in a cold sweat.
Not trusting my marksmanship,
I grabbled down in the snow for
