EARL H. BERGEN FARMS AND FOLKS By J. M. ELEAZER « Clemson Extension Information Specialist COASTAL BERMUDA This grass has really been plant ed the parft spring. Farmers by the score, and on considerable acreages, have sprigged it in. The certified seed patches put out . last year through the county agents in every county have;, proved a valu able source of pure planting stock. Then-many truck loads of stolons from other places have been plant ed too. We will soon know about this grass in a big way. Earliest plantings have looked very good. When I dropped by to see Coun ty Agent Lloyd in Edgefield in March, he was out holding a 4-H club meeting. Talked with the SCS men O’Dell and Floyd. They told me they had two machines for planting htis grass. One was own ed by the district supervisors and the other by four local farmers. Both were doing custom work, and had been kept busy. In Jasper I saw a man from Georgia setting this grass on con tract for $15 per acre for 50 acres or more at'one place, and a little higher for smaller patches. The farmer got the land in order, and this man came in and did the rest, furnishing tractor, planter, labor and roots. County Agent Tate said he was putting plenty of grass and seemed to be doing a good Job. Custom work with these plant ing machines meets a need. Very few if any farmers would be justi fied in owning one just for their own user For when you finish planting that stuff you are really through, unless you get more land. It stays put. CHESTER’S 4-H GUERNSEYS You can pretty well tell when you get in Chester county by the sort of cattle you see. They are truly the Guernsey county. And the 4-H clubs there have been not only in tune with it but spearheading the Guernsey de velopment for a long time. A good many of their present cattlemen learned the 4-H way, by doing. I asked County Agent Wylie how many 4-H Guernsey club members they have now, and it was 75. There we see a goodly number of dairyman in the making. Over 2,000 Guernsey cows are artificially bred from their county bull stud the past year. BEAT TWO OF ’EM Back in March, as the crowd was leaving a baseball game that Clemson won 22 to 3, I heard a small boy enthusiast eaulting to another, “And boy, just think. It was two of 'em too,*' meaning Washington and Lee. FEET BURN Working here in the office, or riding highway and byway, on a summer day, my feet burn, and I kick my shoes off. Guess mine were just not made for shoes. Recollection carries me back to boyhood. On a set day in late April they let us pull our shoes off. The routine was to go to the horse trough at mid-day, pull shoes and stockings off, souse our feet in the cool water. And then, after that baptism, they were free for the summer, except when we went to Sunday School and churoh. And then shoes brought their torture in multiplied form to 'feet that had hardened, spread, and outgrown them.

Yes, sir, it’s no longer the old grasshopper chicken or turkey for us. He had to be fast to catch his keep. But the birds of today, bred for superior meat, can really lay that choice meat on their carcasses with the well-balanced feeds we now have available at every cross-roads. With most forms of livestock, we use a lot of home grown feeds. This is particularly true with tur keys, cattle, and ^ hogs. We add starters and high protein supple ments. But for chickens, specially broilers, it is a commercially com pounded feed all the way. The grower could hardly get, handle or mix all of the elements that go in to the fine poultry rations of to day.

SEI YOUR OLDSMOBILE DEALER TODAYI W. H. DAVIS & SON, Inc. 1532 MAIN STREET NEWBERRY, S. C. Lester Bates says: mmt THig tJEOT GitWtE PLEJsTTYUV PORK! ptAN FARMER BUSINESS MAN TEACHER TEXTILE EMPLOYEE HOUSEWIFE 7 * Emrl OY£& From my observations of political campaigns, I have noted that there are available to one seeking high office three distinct routes to be travelled in on effort to be elected. First is the way of the professional politicians. This is the course by which o candidate humbles himself to the politicians. If they deliver the election, then he spends his time in office delivering to them. The objection to this, however, is that the people are left out, for the professional poli ticians are concerned only with the next election and not with the next generation. The next course available to a candidate in his efforts to be elected is by way of the pres sure groups. Unfortunately, there ore in our State today certain selfish groups and selfish organizations, representing special interests, who will support a candidate with their money and their votes, provided he becomes their slave and tool. The price of their support is submission to their demands. In turn, their candrdr'? upon THE? election becomes their officeholder, and the people ore ogam left out. In my opinion, the only honest course available to anyone seeking public office is by way of the people. This is the rood I hove chosen to travel, the people's way. This is the hard way — yes — but the only way to go into office and be free. Free to think, free to act, and free to accom plish the will of tbe people. Let's not deceivi ourselves. Good government does not come from the professional politicians or the pressure groups. From observation and experience, I have learned that practically every constructive movement, both on o notional and local level, has been o result of the people's efforts. I bore cost my lot with the people. rr-»,mt paid for by friends of Letlri bolts
