And that is right, as far as it goes. But, as Clemson's livestock spec ialists have been pointing out, there is another step that would pay us. And that is to finish them off on grain for market. We grow a lot of grain now. And folks are constantly wanting to know where they can sell it. Right there on the farm, through cattle, is usually the best market for it. I know several very practical cattlemen who have been doing that for years and profiting from it. Three of the top ones I have in mind right now are J. R. Haw kins of Lykesland, J. M. Edens of Dalzell, and W. N. Henderson of Ninety Six. The Camps have re cently started a large cattle feed ing operation in connection with their extensive herd and pastures at Buckfield, down in Hampton county. And County Agent Bowen of Sumter tells me Clayton Lew der has put in an automatic ar rangement wherewith one man handles 1000 steers on feed. Cattle off of grass are put up and fed grain for 60 to 100 days before marketing. These grain-fed cattle usually bring enough more to make the operation profitable. Cattle feeding is quite Ln art, and we have a lot to learn about k. The only way to learn Is by doing it. Clemson’s livestock specialists DuRant and Cato can help you with it. Corn And Hogs In Dorchester Corn makes hogs a major crop in Dorchester. County Agent King has 27 farmers in thoir 3-acre corn contest. And their hog marketing association handled close to a half-million dollars worth of hogs a year. Buyers have told me this is the finest, most uniform lot of hogs they know of originating anywhere else in this area. That is corn country down there they can really make R, If they get the water! Irrigation, dur ing the past few dry years, has been an eye opener, in the few cases where they had it No won der King and their SCS man, tell me it is about the livest subject on the farm front Rice In Berkley About 150 acres of the flatwoods land of Berkley has been cleared and planted to rice by those Tex ans, Stubbs and McCune, who have been working with, rice over the Low Country. They also op erate a rice mill at Waltedboro, where the first enriching of this cereal for local use took place in this country. This land is below the dikes of Lake Moultrie. Water for the rice is pumped from the lake. Vast potentials still lie in our lands across state. As rice beck ons from the Low Country, so does summer vegetables and fall melons from the near-mountain area. And, all in between, there are new things we can do when needed. Staked Tomatoes Some rather fabulous tales have come out of Florida in late, years about yields of quality tomatoes from crops that were staked, prun ed, and tied up. This year. County Agent Alford tells me M-r. Paul Sanders of Rit ter had 75 acres of them. Insect and disease control are thus made easier, ground rot and sunburn are avoided, late culture is pos sible to keep vreeds and grass down, vines are not damaged at harvest, stalk-ripened fruit is made practical, and a big increase in yield of high quality tomatoes is the result. Rural Telephones To Williamsburg After three years of work, the rural cooperative telephone sys tem was being activated in Wil liamsburg county. County Agent Jackson tell me 600 farm families are served. Good roads, electricity and now telephones! The farm sho ain’t what it usta be. All to the good! (Tiiawo CHANNEL AUGUSTA • GEORGIA STJWDAY.

They were an important part of our home-living there. Each family raised the yearling from its milk cow, fed it with care, and each tried to have a better beef than the other. And we started rota tion killing of them out late in the summer and into the fall, you remember. This was after fried chicken had about run out, win ter killed meat hed been used up or become, rancid, and it was too early to start killing hogs again. B$ef filled in there and^was a wel come change. A problem was keeping it with out refrigeration during that warm weather until it couW. be eaten. And our folks had long before that learned that beef can stand a lot or ripening and not spoil. I've seen it with a; green tint on the outside and it smelled awful. My mother would wash it good in vinegar water, cook it, and R was very good. Some folks kept theirs in their cellar. But ours was not secure enough for that. Hungry dogs would have broken in ours tor that fresh meat. So we kept ours at an even cooler place, down in the well. Our well was rock-lined and about 75 feet deep. We’d put the beef in a bucket, the bucket in a sack, and let it down about 50 feet. There it would hang against the side, not interfering with the upping and downing of the water bucket. Once ours fell off in the well! Now that was a calamity tor sure! Next, we’ll take up here. ft'A«A - * PM—Talent Perea* PM—The Weatherman PM—Bill Corum Sports PM—Carnal News Carai PM—Caesar PM—It s A Great Ufa PM—Robert Montgomery 1 PM—Impact 1 PM—Sign Ois TUESDAY.

For the first time in history, I read, the average worker in Ameri ca has more leisure time than working time. Elsewhere I note that we can expect more and more leisure time as this atomic age progresses. Since I apparently have never been able to find all the time I would require to stretch out in a shaded hammock, cooling drink in hand, and dwell upon the wonders of the clouds, the sky and the birds that soar unfettered and unhurried, I can but wonder if I shall dwell long enough upon this old earth to live like a lazy man really should. Already there are forces at work, under the leadership of an en lightened few, which have sinister designs on any new leisure time we may acquire. They Issue the frightful warning that “too much leisure time can and in mass de generation.’* They aren’t worried about Die guy who chases along after a golf ball, the putterer who plants roses and tomatoes in the backyard or he who spends the weekend chasing butterflies. These people get exercise. They worry about those who would use their do-nothing time just doing nothing. Needless alarm, I say. No need for concern until the sky is no longer high and blue, till streams run dry and birds don’t fly, till you can’t find a fish or a fishing pole, and all the wonders of Mother Na ture disappear into entemal dark ness. You won’t kill a lazy man with leisure time any more than you can drown a fish in a bathtub. 'TpOR something different, pop " your canned baked beans ip parboiled green pepper halves and heat in the oven. They’re really something special. When you’re looking for a tasty but nutritious sweet for the young sters, pit cooked prunes and stuff them with a half a marshmallow. Put into the oven long enough to brown the marshmallow. Watch for Myatery Farm pictures RECIPE OF THE WEEK (Serves 4) 1 pound bulk pork sausage Va cup minced onion 2 cups cooked rice 2 cups canned tomatoes 2 tablespoons catsup Salt and pepper- Fry sausage and onion until brown. Poor off drippings. Add cooked rice, tomatoes and cat sup. Mix welL Cover and coek slowly for SO minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Something wonderful to with chicken or turkey are these rice balla. To 2 cups of cooked rice, add a beaten egg, salt and pepper. Shape into balls and chill thoroughly. Fry in deep hot fat until golden brown. ■ Drained crushed pineapple added to a simple butter frosting is a wonderful treat for cupcakes or even spongecake. Add some mustard to your thick white sauce and pour this over sliced hard-cooked eggs and diced ham sitting on a piecelof toast. It makes a wonderful hot sandwich for a chilly day. Veal chops need flavor when they’re braised, so add a split clove of garlic, pour over some tomato sauce diluted with a bit of water and add a pinch of oregano. There’s flavor.
