Milk Consumption Statistics Given Homes in Charleston and Co lumbia are using about 7 quarts of fresh whole milk per week and about 3 quarts (equivalent) of canned evaporated milk. These figures, which were revealed in a recent survey by J. F. Miles, are on a per household basis. The survey showed that white families used 60 percent more fresh whole milk than did colored families. Colored families used more canned evaporated milk, but white families used more $kim milk powder. Consumption of fresh whole milk was highest in households of professional work ers and decreased progressively with semi-professional, skilled and It’s so much EASIER to pay bills by CHECK When you pay bills by check, you save steps and time, eliminate doubt (your cancelled check is you re- « ceipt.)

For some years red cedar seedlings have grown at the state nursery and have been dis- stributed to land-owners. In the last few years, Arizona Cypress seedlings have been planted ex perimentally as a Christmas tree crop and indications are favoi- able that this may be a nev, profitable crop for the state. In today’s South Carolina, with its many cultural advan tages, the United States Brewers Foundation works constantly to encourage maintenance of whole some conditions wherever beer and ale are sold. As in other states, the program calls for close cooperation between law- enforcement officials and beer li censees throughout South Caro lina. Beer belongs ... enjoy it.

NEWBERRY Federal Savings & Loan Ass’n "Use our Modern Night Dep< "NEWBERRY’S LARGEST SAVINGS INSTITUTION” THE NEWBERRY SUN FEBRUARY We are in the very shank of winter now. There is never an off season. On the faVm and aroqnd the home there are always season al things to do. Transplanting is now one of these. If bushes, shrubs, or trees are to be moved, now’s the time. Remember, get all of the roots you can with them. Spread these out in. as natural formation as possible in the hole you dig. Get them about as deep in the ground as they were before. Firm the soil well around the roots and wa ter to settle the soil. Mulch the soil with a light coat of litter. And prune the top back consider able to balance damaged root sys tem. This is very important. Now that winter winds have blown the twigs from pecan and hickory trees that the girdler part ly cut off last summer, pick these up and burn them, for they carry the eggs of this destructive insect. This month usually sees about the last chance for safe home kill ing and curing of hogs. Clemson’s Bulletin 77, “Pork for Carolina Farmers,” free at your county agent's: office carries all of the de tails for this. Nor is there any better time of year to fix* up the fences than now. The snakes, wasps, yellow- jackets, and the like are all in now. And the weeds are killed and leaves are off the briers and bushes so you can see what you are doing. And, of course, pruning of all sorts is in order now, fruit trees and shrubbery. Making and planting cuttings of all sorts too, like grapes, crape myrtles, altheas, pomegranates, roses, and so on should be done now. Make ’em about 10 inches long and set in nursery row with only an iqeh or so of top above ground. Water if needed in the spring andsummer, and you can get most of ’em to grow. SILAGE FROM OATS County Agent Benton of Dillon tells me several dairymen there made silage from oats last sum mer, using molasses and citrus pulp w.th it, and they liked it. “No odors and the cows relish it,” he says. IMPROVED GINNING Generally, our gin man v Sam Williams, tells me we have a lot of very fine gins over South Caro lina. But this, like everything else, is constantly changing. I don’t imagine any county has better gin facilities than Lee. Yet, County Agent Linder there tells me a few of theirs put in double lint cleaners the past year. “This added $10 to $20 per bale to the value of the cotton and made it rather rough on the gins that hadn’t put this additional cleaning attachment in,” he says. The coming of these cleaners was es pecially good the past year, ac cording to Linder, since the crop was so damaged by weather as to make them br.dly needed, and doubly effective. Few groups are up against a harder problem than our gintiers. Our cotton crop is dwindling low in many a county, yet improve ments in ginning keep coming. And these are not cheap either. This is hard on the oil mills too. But soybeans are offering hope to them. A good gin outfit now costs several times what it used to. Yet our cotton acreage is less than a fifth of what it once was. Unless he also handles seed and fertiliz er, I can’t see how the ginner keeps performing his service. And even then, his road must be rough. FOOD PROCESSING Food processing is getting to be bigger and bigger business. Most foods are coming to us more and more ready for the table. Ciemson has one of the finest food processing laboratories to be found anywhere. In it Professor Van Blaricom puts his horticul tural students through the practi cal mill of food processing, pack ing, and storage. He has made a mechanical peach pitter that quarters the fruit and takes the seed out about as fast as they can roll through it. And it was he who worked out practical means for canning the freestone peach, like we grow here. We can ned them in the past for home use, but their discoloration around the seed made them unsuited for com mercial canning. Now, since that has been conquered, peaches of fine quality and attractive ap pearance are put up from the sort we grow mainly in this area. There is a good demand for Clem son’s surplus of experimentally canned peaches, and several large canneries now operate in our peach area. DEED TRANSFERS Newberry No. 1 Robert M. Clary to J.
