FARMS AND FOLKS
By J. M. 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

Gaddy pond at Ansonville, N. 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.

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.

EASY
CATCH!

By LYN CONNELLY
T HERE is a program on tele
vision called “Modem Roman
ces’’ and while it is sponsored by
% soap and cosmetics firm It is
supposedly based on stories cur
rently running in the magazine
oy the same name . . . Only trouble
is, some of the stories they’ve
had (all stories are completed in
one week, 15 minutes per day in
true soap opera fashion) are re
peats of plays seen on other tele
vision dramatic shows . . . They
even run repeats of repeats and we
wonder whether they are actually
focling many people? Martha Scott,
we must admit, is one of the most
charming TV hostesses on the
air, bat even she cannot save the
show if they persist in their pres
ent policy.
