WHEAT NOW
Wheat is seeded later than oth-
«r grains to escape the Hessian
fly- November is the time to put
it in, on a firm seedbed, using a
bushel and a half of treated seed
per acre, according to Clemson.
Wheat needs to go on the better
lands.
The Atlas variety is recom
mended for all parts of the state.
And in addition the Anderson and
■Coker No. 47-27 are recommend
ed for the up-country, and Taylor
nnd Coastal for the lower part
•of the state. If good seed are
needed, your county agent can
likely help you locate them.
BEST BUY
“Wallace’s Farmer,” the farm
magazine out in the great hog
state of Iowa, says: “If you
-want a poor investment, buy a
•cheap boar hog. He will cost you
more in the end than three higher
-valued boars.’ ,
As you know, the hog is being
rebuilt now. All breeds are cen
tering on breeding and selections
for more lean meat. Our breeders
in this state are active in this.
And the fall sales and recent
:fairs showed the progress they
are making.
This changing of the hog has
heen made necessary by the loss
of much of the old lard market.
It is being filled by vegetable
fats. Therefore much of the ten
dency to produce fat is being bred
cut of hogs. And at the same
-time the tendency for more lean
is being built up by selection and
breeding. This should prove to the
advantage of the farmer, for the
experts tell us lean meat is cheap
er to produce that fat anyway.
And our packers are beginning to
pay a slight premium for the lean
meaty hogs too.
progresses in the other areas.
Fairfield went early to cattle.
Back twenty-odd years ago, be
fore our present cattl* develop
ment had gotten under way, the
then county agent R. H. Lemmon
and his leading farmers were
talking cattle and pastures. Not
only talking them but putting
them in.
Now you are seldom out of
sight of cattle and pastures in
riding over Fairfield county. And
this Bangs disease clean-up is
quite appropriate to that major
farm enterprise there. They have
an active livestock association
working regularly in the interest
of the industry.

TAIRFIELD TESTING CATTLE
County Agent Lynn of Fair-
Yield reports the testing of cattle
Yor Bangs disease as moving along
satisfactorily. It is being done on
.an area basis and all of the cattle
in about half of the county have
mow been tested. And the work
SHEEP
Since we are just getting start
ed back in the sheep business
after a long lapse, the livestock
specialists and county agents ar
range convenient pools for the
sale of our lambs in season. The
one held at Spartanburg back in
the summer saw 312 lambs as
sembled and sold, according to
County Agent Martin there. Farm
ers from several Piedmont coun
ties took part.
Marketing is a very important
part of any farm operation. And
it is specially so with a new crop
like sheep in this area. Wool too
is assembled and sold or hauled
direct to the woolen plant at
Johnsonville that is helping with
this sheep development in South
Carolina.
Sheep shearing schools are held
around in the spring. In some
counties the 4-H club boys are
trained in teams and they do a
lot of the shearing locally. For
shearing a sheep is an art, an art
we do not have, but must develop.
UPS AND DOWNS
County Agent Miller of York
says their first early peaches
this year brought as high as
$10.30 a bushel. But that was not
for long. Prices held up fairly
well though until Elbertas came
in. And that’s the big movement.
Then it dropped to where it
hardly paid to pick ’em.
Recent Marriages
Julian F. Shull of Columbia and
Theresa Epting of Newberry were
married on* November 18 at New
berry by the Rev. Thomas Weeks.
