EATING MORE LOCAL MEAT
We had to develop a livestock
industry before we could a local
meat industry.
We have been hammering heavy
on livestock now about 30 years.
And our meat processing plains
have sure been coming along of
late. I well recall whqn we start
ed with hogs in Sumter back in
1928, when I was county agent
there. There was nowhere south
of Richmond we could sell a car
of hogs. 9 few truckloads went to
local butchers, but not carloads.
New we have up-to-date pack
ing plants dotted all over the
state, each handling cattle and
hogs by the carload daily.
Our livestock producers have
been pushing the use of more of
our good local meats. Apparently
this is bearing fruit. I notice the
statistician’s report for April
shows our locally slaughtered
cattle were up 28 percent from the
year before, calves up 33 percent,
arid locally slaughtered hogs were
up 16 percent from that month
last year.
Have you tried our locally grown
and processed meats?
We have, found them as good as
the best, and now use none other.
MED-FLY ERADICATED
The dreaded Mediterraneon fruit
fly that was found to have gain :
ed a strong .footing in the citrus
area of Florida a little over a
year ago has been mopped up, ac
cording to a report from USD A.
Since the infected area included
the cities of Miami, Palm Beach,
and some others, where scatter
ings of citrus grow in yards, era
dication once looked all but im
possible. But the daring men of
science went after it with quar
antines, traps and poisons, and
vast financial aid from the state
and federal government, and here
the staggering job is finished in
a year!
This triumph has meaning for
us here too, and for many sections
of this country other than Flori
da, where the invasion took pla9e.
For this fly’s larvae affects many
crops, not just citrus.
ANOTHER FIRST FOR
SOUTH CAROLINA
The National Cotton Council
reports: “The first instructional
program in gin engineering of its
kind in the United States will be
gin this fall at Clemson College,
Clemson, S. C.” Being first in
this country likely makes it first
in the world.
And the Council further reports:
“Seven gin machinery manufac
turers and The Clayton Fund are
contributing $51,000 to the Foun
dation for Cotton Research and
Education to support the gin eri
gineering program being initiat
ed this fall at Clemson.
“Fifteen graduate, one-year fel
lowships worth $2,500 each are
being set up to attract outstand
ing students. An average of three
scholarships each year will be
awarded for five years.”
BARLEY ADVANCES
It hasn’t been many years since
barley was just grown in the up-
couatry. But of late the plant
breeders have produced disease
resistant sorts that do well on the
better lands all over the state.
Clear to the coast, the county
agents are now reporting succes
ses with barley. County Agent
Pohnston of Horry, right down on
the coast, reports, “We had a def
inite increase in barley acreage
the past season and some very
fair yields too.” It is handled
mechanically and soybeans can
follow it.
Farmers in the up-state have
long counted barley as their “win
ter corn crop,” for it is about
equal to corn in feeding all sorts
of livestock. And, growing in the
winter and spring, as it does, it
escapes summter droughts that so
often affect com. With both corn
and barley, the farmer’s feed
supply is better protected.
BOYS ARE I
THAT WAY
By J. M. ELEAZER
I grew up distrusting a man
carrying a brief case or a ban
jo.
It happened this way.
A slicker came through the
Fork one fall when I was a kid
driving two fine horses to a
rubber-tired buggy. He was
flashily dressed and carried the
first brief case I had ever seen.
He was a fast talker and de
lighted us for a while, as we
sat there on the porch. Soon he
implied that the riches he dis
played had come from oil and
that he wa» letting a few select
folks in on it.
The oil stock he scattered
through the countryside was ut
terly ^worthless.
So I remembered that brief
case. In my mind it became the
emblem of the slicker. And for
years I was decidedly suspi
cious of anyone I saw carrying
one.
A strange colored man came
to our community at “big meet-
in’ ” time one summer. He too
wore rather loud clothes. The
only times I ever saw him he
was walking along the roads
with w banjo on his back. And
occasionally at dusk he would
be strumming it, and perchance
humming a bit.
One night someone visited a
neighbor’s hen house and got
away with a lot of chickens.
Everybody said it was that
stranger with the banjo.
So for years afterwards a ban
jo strapped to the neck of a
wandering minstrel was to me
the badge of a chicken thief.
And until this day I am still
a bit leery of a fellow with a
brief case and the one who car
ries a banjo around, although
reason tells me that honorable
men could and likely do both.
Childhood impressions are
strong.

CINDERELLA'S PLUMBER
. f i J ¥ .X I l
By B. C. McAfee
Wm
J OE BURK liked being a plumber.
You met such interesting peo
ple. Especially women. Take for
instance, this cute little sparrow
in the brown suit. Miss Tina Cox,
her name was. She had phoned
him that morning to come over
to the Ace Advertising Agency and
fix a leaky faucet on her office
sink. Ibe minute ho walked in,
Joe knew she’d boon crying. Her
soft biown eyes were suspiciously
damp behind their shell-rim glas
ses. She was slons, the others
having left since it was 1:00 P.M.
Saturday.
“It won’t take long, will it?”
die had asked. *T have to go to a
wedding this afternoon.” Her voice
was kind of s soft brown, too.
“Be done in a jiffy, ma’am,” Joe
had assured her. As hq worked,
he whistled sofOy through his
teeth, glancing now and then at
Miss Cox, who stood looking mood-
fly out the window. A wedding,
thought Joe—she doesn't seem
very happy about it. Wonder why?
Miss Cox turned suddenly from
the window, her dainty hands
screwed into fists. “Will you please
stpp whistling through your teeth?”
she muttered fiercely, and burst
into tears.
Joe laid down his wrench. To
him, a woman’s tears were much
like a leaky faucet—they could al
ways be stopped, if you trent about
it in the right way.
“Nobody c-can help me,” she
wailed. “And you’re not older—I’m
a m-miserable 38! The girls call
me ‘Poor Old Coxie’ behind my
back. They feel sorry for me, be
cause I’m an old maid. That’s why
they’ve arranged for the bride to
aim her bouquet right at me. Give
poor old Coxie a thrill, they said.
I wasn’t supposed to hear them,
but I did. Oh, I j-just can’t g-go
to that wedding!” she sobbed.
“B-but I have to. It’s one of the
typists who’s getting married.”
“Hmmm ... I see . . .” Joe said,
leaning on a file cabinet, “Y’know,
maybe the girls wouldn’t feel quite
so sorry for you if you didn’t feel
sorry for yourself." Miss Cox
opened her mouth to protest, but
Job held up a hand. ’‘Wait—let me
finish. Instead of thinking of your
self as am old maid, why not be a
'career, girl*? As for the girls—
well, if you can’t fight ’em, join
’em! You're taking this whole deal
too serious. Play along with their
little joke—make ’em laugh wWi
you, instead of at you.” Joe leaned
over the desk. “Look,” he said
urgently, “not only are you going
to that wedding, but you're gonna
catch that darn bride’s bouquet
and laugh in their faces! Now
then—what time is this
Mie* Cox looked slightly
died as she consulted her
“The wedding starts in less than
two hours. It’s at the big stone
church opposite the park. I—Fm
all dressed to go, but—”
“Good!” said Joe. He swept one
arm toward the window. “Cinder
ella,” he announced, “behold your
pumpkin coach!”
Miss Cox gasped as she beheld
the shiny, new red convertible
parked in the lot below. “Y—
yours?” she asked.
One hour later found them roar
ing down/ the boulevard in Joe’s
car. They made a brief stop at a
sporting goods store. Joe came
out and gave Tina a smaU bag.
“Present,” he said. “Don’t open
it ’til you get out”
“Really,” she stammered, “I—I
just don’t know how to thank you
for everything.”
Joe grinned. “You might start
off by going out for dinner tonight
with a lonesome old bachelor.
Maybe a show, afterward .. .”
Tina nodded happily. “Oh,
look—” she cried, “there are the
girls getting cut of that cab in
front of the church!”
Joe swung into the curb with a
grand flourish. As he helped Tina
out, the girls stood gaping in awed
admiration.
“Hey!” he called, tossing it to
ward her, “you forgot your catch
er’s mitt. Don’t you dare miss that
bride’s bouquet!”
