Farm Pond Program Continues Growth Farmers cooperating with Soli Conservation districts in SCS area number two in the Piedmont of South Carolina built 621 ponds in 1956. This numiber compares with ponds built in former years In the same area as follows: 1964- 616; 1963-463; 1952-326; 1961-163; 1960-178; 1949-123; 1948-128. Ponds built by SCDs during 1968) were as follows: Lancaster 141, Catawba (York county) 103; New berry 102; Fairfield 99; Cherokee 73; Chester 48; Spartanburg 42; arid Union 13. Lancaster led in the area In 1965 to bring their total of ponds built to date to 1016. There are now a total of 2938 ponds in this area. Soil Conservation Service tech- nleiaais helped farmers eeleot thfl sites and make necessary surveys •and designs to insure that these ponds were properly located and constructed. In many cases the farmer received cost-sharing from ACP. ’ - - BOYS ARE THAT WAY By J. M. ELEAZF.R Brush broom* and broom straw? Youngsters now don’t likely know -what those things are. But in the Stone Hills of The Dutch Fork, where I wis raised, they had meaning, every - day meaning. Brush brooms were made of fast-growing dogwood a u c k e r s bound together. They were used to sweep the yard with. They were tough and springy and lasted a long time. Many a time my mother sent me to the woods to get her the nhoots for a new yard broom. We alwaya found the beat ones where logging operations had been a year or so before. For that broke down a lot of dog wood trees and caus ed them to send up many fset- go whig auokers. These at two year* old were Just prime for the brooms. We’d out them off about four feet high, securely bind about 10 together, and then we had a broom that would la*t for a good while. We had never seen a lawn then. It wa* the custom to keep the hard red clay and gravely yards clean and Guess the reasons were, we nad no lawn mowers then, and dead gras* there In the winter time would be a fire has- ard. And the uncut gras* would wet your feet easy. But the mud there was a pain for sure. We alwaya swept away from the house, the accumulated trash going off the bare yard Into the weed* that bordered It. Erosion cut the soil away and left the house on a mound. A lively dust usually followed the sweeper. The yard* had to lie swept on Satur day, for you’d likely have com pany dropping In on Sunday. The broom waa then kept In the back chimney corner. I’ll get to broom straw next week.

When ponds are properly stock ed and fertilised they produce fish in abundance in addition to sup plying water for irrigation, stock watering, recreation and other uses. “The yield of catchable fish from an unfertilised pond will probably be about 16 pounds per acre as compared to 160 pounds or more per acre from a fertilised pond,” said Verne Davison recent ly while making a series of pbnd studies in South Carolina. M r. Davison is SOS biologist for the Southeastern etates with head quarters at Auburn, Ala. W. W. Neely, SOS wildlife biol oglst for South Carolina, assisted with pondi studies in 1966 in seV eral Soil Consrveation districts in this area. He discussed pond management. Salient points cov ered in emphasising that “it’s easy to have a good fish pond but just as easy to have a sorry one” were (1) pick the right kind of location. (2) clear the basin of all trees and shrubs. (3) get rid of all wild fish. (4) stock only with bass and bluegllls. (5) keep the pond well fertilised, and (6) don’t fish the pond until the bass have apawned. Mr. Neely gave some pertinent pointers about waterweeds too. He said, "waterweeds Interfere with fishing. Some kinds give fish an unpleasant taste. They clog ir rigation pumps and sprinklers. They also cause the pond balance to become upset by protecting the bluegllls from the bass. This re sults In poor fishing.” STATEMENT OF CONDITION •> A '; ’ ^ , , l Newberry Federal Savings <S- Loan Association After The Close Of Business December 31,1955 $7,020,519.71 ASSETS First Mortgage Loans~ — — - (Well secured loans oil properties in Newberry and surrounding 1 territory, providing families with an inexpensive long-term loan which pays off the complete obligation in easy monthly pay ments.
