It quotes peaches “Graded % bu. baskets $2.00.” Then, “Orchard run good quality bushel baskets $1.50 to $1.75.” Now, folks, those peaches were vepr similar when they came from the trees. One was properly graded and packed out to look their best. They brought more for a half bushel than the others, not simi larly graded and dressed up did for a whole bushel. I heard one fellow say, “There is no sense to that. These un graded peaches are just as good as the others.” Well, maybe so. But the folks who buy them don’t feel that way. And that’s what counts. The whims of the fellow who’s going to eat the stuff we grow are the ones to listen to. With so much cash and carry buying now, none but the best needs to go to market. Every de tail of production must bave a quality product in mind. And that starts away back before planting time. You spot on the market, the variety, every detail of production and pest control, harvesting, grading, and packing must have that housewife, with her shopping basket, in mind. Otherwise, she is liable to leave the stuff there in the merchant’s bins. And that kicks you right in the pocketbook. Aids in all of these things are available through your county agent. To some they might look like pure production. But they carry the very essence of market ing. For as one broker told me, good stuff largely sells itself, and they will come (back for more. While poor stuff just lies there and rots. Or you push some of it off on a fellow who doesn’t come back. Those who brought good stuff to him thought he was a great salesman, while those who brought poor stuff denounced him as a scroundrel and a thief. MAKING DAIRY FARMERS The past spring the county agents in Anderson brought in 22 good Holstein heifers for their 4-H Club youngsters. Last year they brought in a similar number. By the end of this year. County Agent Hopkins said, they will likely reach 100 members in their 4-H dairy calf club. This process has been going on now for some time in Anderson county. It has played a prominent part in that county’s phenomenal dairy growth. Because an inter ested boy with a good calf soon becomes a man with a small herd. And then you have a dairy man. Why build new dairymen, one might ask, when there are large surpluses already. * I’ll answer that this way. We once grew about 3 million acres of cotton in this small state. Too much cotton did not serve us well. We adjusted our acreage downward. Now we have about 1 million. Other regions that had little or no cotton took the acre age we gave up.- Maybe they need ed it. We didn’t. S it is with dairying. We need diversification, with crops plus livestock. For some of our farmers that needs to be dairying. Maybe the heavy dairy areas will be bet ter off by giving some of It up to us, while they improve their lots too with a more varied agriculture. GRAIN HERE In recent years our grain acre age has doubled and the yield is up about 65 percent. You talk about change, there you have it And just think of the meaning of that grain in terms of poultry and livestock! County Agent Mellette of Aiken tells me they had a lot of oats that made over 65 bushels per acre the past season. D. T. Mathis made 452 bushels on 5 acres. And 40 bushels of wheat was rather common. Calhoun is a great grain cdunty. Included in it is a lot of wheat. County Agent Cain says the new Anderson wheat that Clemson put out last year “did exceptional well, much (better than any other variety planted, ami it had very little mildew on Vic Vet fay* HEttBS A REMINDER ID VETS JUST BEING DISCHARGED.

BACKGROUND: ASIA Years of Colonial Rule Made Indochina Easy Propaganda Mark, Set Up Communist Vidory By WALTER BREAD Washington Correspondent, National Weekly Newspaper Servlee. HpO GET at the real crux of what -*• happened and what is happen ing in Indochina, or in the whole of South Asia for that matter, one must lift a backdrop of centuries of colonial rule and exploitation of peoples and resources by the west ern powers. The civil war against the, French which started in Vietnam in 1946 was a manifestation of the general unrest among the peoples of South' Asia which has resulted; (1) in the Independence of, India which has been given dominion status by the British; (2) the independence of Indonesia, which won freedom from the Dutch, and (3) self-rule in Bur ma, though not complete independ ence from Britain. This sweep of nationalism has won also a measure of self-rule in the federated Malay states. French Indochina is made up of the two independent kingdoms of Laos and Cambodia, which date back centuries, and Vietnam which is a federation of the states of ton kin in the north, of Annam, a for mer kingdom in the center and Ihe former French colony of Cochinchi- na in the south, all within the French Union. Of these three st*»tec, Vietnam is the more important with a ropula- tion of some 23 million. Laos con tains 1 Vi million with about million in Cambodia. A million or so Chinese live in Vietnam, most of them around Cholon and Saigon in Cochinchina. A large number of Thai and Moi and other tribal peo ple live in the mountains of the central Regions. So the total popu lation is around 29 million people alternately squeezed * nd scattered over 286,000 square miles, an area one-thisd larger than France, and twice the size of the British Isles. The Vietnamese have their own language, structure of government, system of education, religion and family patterns. Centuries of infil tration have left the population, however, a tangle of influence, mostly Chinese. In Laos and Cam bodia, their culture and traditions are symbolized in magnificent tem ples and the ruins of Angkor, dating back to Indian inspiration. The truth at the matter is, that as a result of so many centuries of colonial ride these peoples in south Asia, who seek to revive and reassert their own cultural and his toric traditions have been easy prey to the propaganda, the promises at agrarian reform and the help of Russian Communism, and more re cently’ of Red Chinese communism. Despite the fact that in 1949 France, which has held complete sway over Indochina since 1886, and parts of it since 1858, promised in dependence to Vietnam, it was com paratively easy for the Moscow trained Red Chinese leader Ho chi Minh to sway the nationalist lead ers of the rebellious Vietnamese into accepting aid from Red China in their fight for freedom. A year ago, in July 1953, the French signed a pact with Bao Dai, former em peror of Annam and now chief of state of Vietnam, for complete in dependence of his country, once a stable government was assured. However the communists were able to prevent any stable government rod the French and Vietnamese troops were routed and forced to move out of Hanoi, the capital, leaving the Reds in full control of the northern section of the country. What happened at Geneva mere ly made the French defeat official, and more, gained a partition of the country about midway down the. narrow neck near the town of Hue Insofar as the French were con cerned, it was a peace at any price for the new French premier, Mr. Mendes France. It was a disastrous defeat for the western powers and another communist victory in the Far East in the ccntmalng fifittle to keep Communistic imperialism - ■ v’ from winning by erosion more ter ritory in that part of the world. It- means that approximately 13 mil lion more people in north and cen tral Vietnam are today behind the iron curtain, aa a result of the rati fication at the Geneva conference in which our country, together witli. Britain, France, Russia and Red' China participated. The question now arises, will the Chinese Reds and their Moscow allies be content and permit the rest at Indochina to work out their independence from the French? The answer of course, is a well known “No,” for the pattern of Communist aggression does not work in that fashion. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles early this year pointed out the danger of any successful com munist coupe in Indochina. He said: “The tragedy would not stop there. If the communist forces won uncontested control over Indochina or any substantial part thereof, they would surely resume the same pat tern of aggression against other free peoples in the area. The propagand ists of Red China and Russia make it apparent that the purpose is to dominate all of southeast Asia.”’ President Eisenhower himself ex pressed his concern over possible loss of Indochina ia the Reds aa one of “transcendent importance.’ r So the process of erosion will con tinue. And at this writing it appear* it may continue unchecked in the Far East, lest we become involved in a shooting war either unilater ally or with our western allies^ against Red China. In the meantime the fate of the rest of Indochina, at Thailand, of Burma, of Malaya and the rest of the underbelly of the Asian conti nent hangs in the balai.ee. ’ (Editor’s Mto: This Is the first mi tmmr Articles relative to the Commsafst vt.i- tery Is 'French Indeehlna and what If-, will aiean to the United States and the M J:.A ‘m "v:. can to the United States and free world.
