ELEAZER Clemson Extension Information Specialist COTTON STANDS i If you have a good one, be sure to leave enough. Through experiment and exper ience, Clemson finds it pays to leave 2 or 3 stalks to the hill 8 to 12 inches apart. That’s one thing that gives our cotton con testants those good yields. For you just can’t make top yields without plenty of stalks on the land. Then your preparation, fer tilizer, poison, cultivation, etc., has something to work with. CHANGE Many of the familiar things of yesteryear are going. The livery stable the round house, and the blacksmith shop are but memories among the older folks. Likely the youngsters hard ly know what you are talking about when you mention them. Yet they were stalwarts of our rugged past. Change the walking plow! I can remember the first rid ing ones. Most folks thought they would never work. Now a man rides prepares puts down ferti lizer and plants 4 rows at a time. That’s 24 furrows! Use to take that many men and that many mules to do what one man does here with a machine now. Not many years ago it was about 12 acres of cotton that kept a family busy. Clemson pioneered in mechanizating cotton in this area when one man at its Black- ville Station grew 100 acres of cotton with mechanization, single handed about 12 years ago. And a good while before that Clemson’s extension engineer was rasseling with a few mechaniza tion demonstrations over the State. Gradually the machines were adjusted to our conditions and progressive farmers conquer ed them in their fields. And since then we have seen the rapid exit of the mule and a fast growth of the machine. WILD GEESE I’ve often told you of the thousands of wild geese in the J. C. Waldrop, clerk. Union: Voting at J.

C. Many of you tell me that you have seen them in season (full moon in October to full moon in March.) But for those of you who haven’t seen this strange sight, you can see it at any sea son in the 9 minute movie Clem son’s Riley took of them there. This black and white no sound movie is available from the ex tension film library at Clemson and can be gotten through the lo cal county agents in the usual manner. I've told you how tame these geese are, eating out of folk’s hands. Well in it you can see them eating out of mine. A good picture for nature classes, wildlife study groups, and just about any sort of meeting. WIT AND WISDOM Maybe I told you about it. Last winter I was with a van ishing sort, a native elderly man deep in the mountains. He had never come out much, and car ried a native wit and wisdom that was as natural and true as the deep cove in which he lived or the sturdy oak in his yard. He rode back out from in there with us. We stopped for supper. When the waitreste was pouring our coffee, he looked at it and said to her, “You know it don’t take as much water to make good coffee as some folks think.” He was used to his strong. The subject of firewood came up. He said he always maintain ed that hickory was the best. But once a fellow disputed that and went out to get some that was better. “But he ain’t come back yet.” he said. , All irrigated land in the U. S. amounts to about the acreage*of the state of Ohio. Yet about a fourth of total national produc tion comes from it. Arkansas now has a million ir rigated acres, only a third o f which is rice. It is building new yield records of other crops to there, including cotton. Ancient civilizations, 700 years before Columbus discovered Am erica, irrigated in our Southwest. Ruins of one of those canals 3^ feet wide and 10 feet deep still mark the barren wastes of Arizo na. Climates changed and their water went. And so did their civ ilization. And with us still, a de pendable source of water is the big thing. If you have that, you are potentially well off. • THC - STARS T. C. “Ted” McDowell Newberry Supervisor If elected your Supervisor, I will cooperate and work with the Commissioners you elect and will serve every section of Newberry County to the best of my ability. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the splen did vote and support you gave me in my last campaign for Commissioner. It has been a pleasure to serve these past four years as your Commissioner. It is often said: “You have to start at the bo tom of the ladder and work up.” Therefore, I am asking for a promotion, to that of Supervisor of Newberry County. I want to make this pledge: If elected Supervisor, I will be a full-time officer of this county, not a part-time man. My present business ■ of well-contracting will he discontinued. May I urge each and every voter to go to the* polls on TUESDAY, June 12th. Thank you. (This ad paid for by T. C. McDowell personally) ■■ ' 'Si I WORDS . buna LTLTX THOUGHTS outt-ume men GOT PKDMoreP/ WTiPTiS PACS \r... SIGNS KU8S PACT . . .
