FARMS AND FOLKS
By J. 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*

Rev. 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.
