FARMS AND FOLKS

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.
COMMERCIAL FEED
The commercial, properly pro
portioned feed business has grown
mightly in recent years. Here in
South Carolina, I’m told, poultry

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.

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.
