C. Main Street FARMS AND FOLKS By J. M. ELEAZER Clemaon Extension Information Specialist SOIL FERTILITY INTEREST To know the lime requirement of your soil, and the fertilizer ele ments it needs is the very basis for a program to build its ferti lity and productiveness, say the soil scientists of Clemson. Based on this fundamental, coun ty agents over the state have been pushing the sampling of soils the past winter. Thousands of samples have been sent to Clemson and tested. The findings were sent back and reccommendations made as to lime and fertilizer needs for maximum economic crop produc tion on the various fields. In regard to this, County Agent Hubbard of Bamberg reported, “Interest in the soil fertility pro gram has been high. Many farm ers requested assistance in taking soil samples to obtain recommen dations.” Chesterfield’s Jake Willis said: “Fertilizer dealers are cooperating in promoting the soil fertility pro gram in the county.” And in Lee county they have had a drive on to get all fields sampled and tested. To this end a number of samplers were trained in January, working in coopera tion with Clemson and the Nation al Plant Food Institute. This is the second county in which this intensive effort has been launched. Edgefield was the first and it has just about completed its job. Coun ty agent Lloyd there tells me far mers have shown great interest in this soil testing and are now carry ing out recommended practices to correct deficiencies shown by the tests. Each sample must be sent to Clemson with the proper form and information signed by the lo cal county agent to avoid mix-ups. BIGGER FARMS OR CUSTOM WORK? County Agent Martin of Spar tanburg was telling me it takes a minimum of about $7,500 worth of special equipment to properly handle even a small orchid, 10 or 15 acres. But evidently that isn’t practical nor economic. Therefore, the tendency with peaches is like with just about all other types of farming, for longer units which can justify the larger overhead and capacity of the me chanized farm. Custom work, he pointed out, is taking care of some of the smaller units. Where congenial neighbors can get together and use large ef ficient machinery together, some of the smaller units are still doing a good job and getting along. But in most cases the efficient opera tions are running to the larger sorts. AVOID CROTALARIA IN CHICKEN FEED Our poultry specialist, P. H. Gooding, warns against inadvert ently getting crotaiaria' seed mix ed in with grain that’s to be ground for chickens. About the only sort of grain this would like ly happen to is grain sorghum, where the crotaiaria volunteered with in the field, and the combine got both seed together. However, this can be avoided by watching the sorghum fields and either pull ing out the volunteer crotaiaria plants or carefully screening them out after harvest. Crotaiaria is a fine soil building plant. And it does volunteer quite a bit. But it’s not objectionable in most crops, like cotton and corn. Long and late cultivation of cot ton keeps it out until it is too late for it to bother there. And in corn) that’s laid by early, it often comes of its own accord there, making a fine cover crop, and not hurting the corn. BOYS ARE THAT WAY Memories are pleasant of boy hood in the Stone Hills of the Dutch Fork. My, the joys that laid around for a country boy, when he could get out of work and enjoy them. And I was rather good at that. But when we got up as yearl ings, there was work to do. My father was the country doctor, and my brother and I farmed with the one of our two horses he wasn’t driving. My brother was older than I. So the full responsibility of keep ing things moving along in the fields was his. And he was natur ally a freer worker than I, or was older and had more sense of re sponsibility. Anyway, such work as I did, he got it out of me. In the Stone Hills field work was made for men. But we had no man, and it was ours to do. I got awful tired, the rows looked long, and it seemed that noon and dusk would never come. But of those two stopping times, I cher ished noon best, for it was usually hot then. And too, we’d eat time we took out and got to the house, for the old bell had already rung. As good as the noon meal was, on a hot day, what fcjlowed it was better, far better, and that was a 30 minute snooze on the cool corn er of the front porch. There was always a cool spot somewhere out there, and we could find it in stantly. We never used a pillow. It would soon get hot against us. We’d lay a straight chair down against the wall and rest our head against its sloping back. Now that might not sound like much of a FARM NOTES m 1 1 »"II I IHIUI||| I „„„„| Wi Barley Smut Control Easy .

All too soon, the folks called us, and it was time to make our way back to the field, reluctantly, but refreshed. I always felt like I could have slept all afternoon. But if that work hadn’t been waiting out there, I’m sure I’d not have been so keen for sleep.

Mr. Claude Satterwhite was one of the demonstrators. We check ed his field of barley and found the untreated Barley approximate ly 25'i infested with smut. This is about the extent of damage to all Barley in the county. The treated Barley was 100% free of damage. It is an eye opener vo j see the difference in the treated and untreated plots. The plots are in a field of Barley which is in fested, yet the treated shows no damage. The treatment is a cold water treatment. This treatment requir es no money, if you have a few 55 gallon drums around, other than time and labor. Certainly the time and labor would be justified when you can expect to do away with loose smut damage. Anyone wishing to see the re sults of this demonstration should try to do so this week. Mr, Sat terwhite says he does not mind anyone taking a look at this plot. We will be happy to tell you how to get there if you do not know. Control Insects Shrubs and Garden Flowers-For control of scale, spider mites, white fly, and plant lice, use 2 teaspoonfuls 50G emulsion Mala- thion per gallon of water. For control of leaf chewing and leaf eating insects, use DDT 50% wettable powder at the rate of 4 tablespoonfuls in 3 gallons of wa ter . Garden Insects—Ask for Home and Garden Bulletin No. 46. It has a description and control mea sure for the numerous insects and diseases of vegetables. Household Insects — The old housefly, once inside the home can still be best controlled with a fly-swatter. Aresol bombs or mist sprayers also have a place in the home. Control roaches by using 2% oil solution chlordane spray. Apply on exposed surfaces where roach es crawl with mist sprayer or paint brush. Some material will control ants in the home. Always follow directions by the manufacturer carefully. Secure additional information about insect control from the County Agents Office. Hay The main factors which affect the quality of hay are: (1) Cutting at proper stage of growth - most hay is cut too late. (2) Proper curing - most hay is overcured. (3) Fertilization - most hay crops need more fertilizer. Time of Cutting: Alfalfa—When crop starts bloom ing and basal shoots appear. Soybeans—when seed first start developing. Cowpeas—when first pods start forming. Small grain—when crop is in milk stage. Grasse —when in blooming stage, cut Coastal Bermuda when not more than 14 inches high. You should, keep in mind the time of cutting the various crops for hay. Small grain and alfalfa are being harvested for hay at the present time by many. Watch and cut your hay crop for best quality, at the proper time. Peanuts The NC-1 and NC-2 are the var ieties of Virg-inia-'type peanuts presently being recommended in S. C. Plant only the best seed. Many of you have some peanuts- each year for home use. Better stands are gotten from treated and shelled peanuts. Generally about 400 pounds of 4-12-12 fertilizer per acre at planting time is recommended. Have a good seed bed prepared- plant, generally speaking, during the middle - of the cotton planting season. Small types of peanuts are usually seeded at the rate of 30-40 pounds per acre, while large Paysinger Rites Were Friday Charles Thomas Paysinger, Jr., of West Columbia, pharmacist and partner in the Jordan Drug Co. of Columbia since 1947, died Thurs day afternoon at the Columbia hospital after a sudden attack.
