M. ELEAZER Clemson Extension Information Specialist OUR ADVANTAGES W’e have many good advantages in this area. I speak of them often here. With milk, for instance, I notice South Carolina’s average whole sale price for December was $6 per 100 pounds, and the average retail price 21.7 cents a quart. Contrasted with this, in the country as a whole, during Dec ember the wholesale price of milk averaged $4.35 per 100 pounds. Since that average included our higher figure, soine states must have averaged less than $4.35. And in the country as a whole the retail price avefaged 21.2 cents a quart. Looks like our milk handlers are doing a pretty good job. They pay our farmers considerably more for their milk yet sell it for about the same price as the whole country averages. This same December crop re port shows Us to have some ad vantages in price with all poultry products, too, especially eggs. Our retail egg price for that month was 57 cents a dozen, while for the whole country at was 47.1 cents. With cotton faltering, and in dustrialization growing, we need to master these important food crops. For gjthe, growing markets are right at hand for , quality foods. , Remember, in starting with something new, try to grow it good or not at all Your local county agent and the specialists of Clemson can help you with this. And there are all sorts of helpful bulletins available, too. They carry a lot of the know-how that will help you develop your own. IMPORTANT NOW There is one thing the average family can do about the cost of living. Have a garden, a real pro ducing one. There is no time better to start than right now, early March. The most important thing about a garden is for it not to be too big. Too many folks get enthused at this season, get a batch of all sorts of seed, and stretch them over too much poorly fertilized and half prepared ground. Soon then drougftts come and it’s too big to water, or rain sets in and grass takes it. But if neither' of these things happen, you make a lot of poor quality stuff scattered over a lot of hungry land there. It’s simply amazing the amount of fine quality vegetables you can make on a small fertile spot that you can mulch, keep clean, and water when needed. And as soon as one crop starts to fade, take it out and plant something else, or have it coming already there in the middles. I know a fellow who says that he makes 100 pounds of tomatoes per plant. I saw his 3 plants, and don’t doubt him. That is an ex treme case of what I’m talking about. -We don’t intensify quite as much as he does. But from a dozen plants we usually make all of the tomatoes we can use, and they last almost until frost. Two hills of cucumbers make more than w'e can usually eat, and 3 bell pepper plants do the same. A row of snap beans 30 feet long picked a half bushel at the' peak, and we harvested them twice a week for almost a month. A good plastering of manure is the best treatment for a garden I know. Cover the ground well with it. We fumigate our small plot each year against nematodes and that’s not a big job when we spade it up, and it costs little. Then some good garden fertilizer mixel in the row before you plant, and the soil is ready. We theat the seed too. That’s very cheap, easy, and often does a lot of good. As soon as things are up good, we mulch them by covering the ground with some sort of litter. We i^se shortleaf pine straw. This does all sorts of good. It shades the soil, thus preventing crusting, drying out, or washing. And that litter helps the soil as it rots. A garden like this ip both a pleasure and profitable. If you are rusty on any angles of it, your county agent and home agents have published garden helps from Clemson. They will be glad t o furnish them to you* 'WTUlS MCE IT. Prosperity Ne MRS. B. T.

Robert H. Harper * Jtstts Interprets History. ^Lesson for March 11: Luke 21: 2*-36. Golden Text: Luke 21: 33. Luke tells how Jesus at one time interpreted history and with spe cial reference to the future. In reading his prophecy of the future, men are sometimes confuted as not knowing whether Jesus was speaking at a given point of the downfall of Jerusalem or the end of the world. The downfall of Jerusalem, its utter destruction and the slaughter of its inhabitants came with a generation from ^ the time Jesus was speaking. As to the ending of earthly time, men have differed in their beliefs concerning the second coming of Christ. Some say that Christ must come again before the world can be better while others believe that the millenium will come before the second coming. But Jesus express ly said that not even the angels in heaven know the time of the sec ond coming. How can men know the time and why should they trouble about it. The important thing is the agree ment of Christians that Jesus will come again. And the urgent thing for each man is to be ready for U»e Lord’s coming. By' avoiding evil of every kind and by doing those things that will form in us t Christian character and devo tion, we shall be prepared to meet lesus when he comes again.
