Modern farm machinery is a
big factor in proper care of
land. In the picture at left

years of sericea, this terrace

LEAVE PLENTY COTTON
Since the coming of the boll
weevil, the plant breeders have
given us better cottons that aid
in the fight. Earlier maturity and
smaller stalks are two important
characters in these new and bet
ter cottons. And to get the most
out of those things, we need a lot
of stalks on the land.
Our cotton man, Sam Williams,
reminds us that arbund 60,000
stalks per acre usually gives the
highest yields. Now, folks, that's
thick cotton, 3 or 4 stalks to the
foot! And it is seldom that any
one leaves that much. In the first
plaoe, you don’t usually get a uni
form stand. There am skips. And
then in hoeing and cultivating you
knoclr stalks out Insects and dis
ease often hurt the stand too. And
you seldom wind t^p with that per
fect stand that will give you fifty
to sixty thousand stalks to the
Acre. But, as Sam points out, a
full stand should be our aim. And
the nearer we succeed, the better
the reward.
With as nearly a full stand as
possible, fertilize, good seed, in
sect and disease control, etc, then
have -a high yield potential to
work with.
A STRANGE FACT
SCS man Frank Lesesne told me
of a strange case. This farmer
.bought an irrigation outfit that
paid for Itself the first year, even
though he didn’t nse it. Here’s
the way it happened. Having it, he
fertilised better and spaced his
tobacco closer, knowing he could
protect it' from drought. But he
didnt have a drought that time.
The thicker spacing and better
fertilization gave him several hun
dred pounds more per acre than
he could have made with the old
spacing and fertilization.; So, his
outfit was paid for by the gain the
first year, even, though he didn’t
have to use it.
This brings out an important
point. To justify irrigation, we
must do all we can to build up a
big yield potential. And that calls
for more stalks and better ferti
lization. But you can’t risk those
things with drought.
FORESTRY STARTED IN 1906
Forestry in this country was
started in 1905 by President Theo
dore Roosevelt and Governor Gif
ford Pinehot, of Pennsylvania.
It was rather slow spreading, it
pretty well took a new generation
to begin appreciating it It reach
ed South Carolina on September
fifth, 1924 when Hbmry H. Tryon
came as Clemaon/s Virst Extension
Forester. He enlisted such inter
est as could be mustered and aid
ed In getting our state forest ser
vice established.
Now forestry is getting to be
a live subject, and we see conser
vation and proper use being put
more and more to our woodlands.
We not only try by all means
to keep the fire out, but our state
grows pine seedlings that land-
owners now set out by the million
each winter.
“Trees as a crop”! That's what
our Bill Barker calls them. And
just that they .are. Handled right,
they offer a harvest every few
years. And they do most of the
work. The main thing we have to
do is just keep ruinous fires out.
Our youngsters in the 4-H clubs
and FFA chapters have forestry
demonstrations. And folks are
planting, to protect young trees as
a saving with which to educate
children and retire on^
Yes, trees,, common old pine
trees, have great meaning now.
They were here originally, great
giants of the forest But we took
’em away. Now we are helping
them come hack.
I saw this somewhere the other
day: . ’
“I had no shoes and complained f|
until I met a man who had no
feet.”
And:
“If you don’t smoke until yoiT
are 21, you most likely never will.’
