NOTES
By COUNTY AGENTS
Thanksgiving Holidays
Our offices will be closed next
Thursday as we observe Thanks
giving holiday. Also Tom Riser
asks us to remind cattle owners
that his artificial breeding service
won’t 'be available on Thanksgiv
ing Day. Tom only gets 4 holi
days a year and cattle owners
have kept him really busy this
fall. Both our offices will be open
as usual on Friday the 27th.
Things We’re Thankful For At
This Time of Year
That farmers are the best folks
in the world to work with.
That Dave Waldrop and others
have made “layers” an important
“crop” in Newberry County.
That we made a good cotton
crop, even though we couldn’t get
it all picked.
That Clifford Smith likes dairy
farming almost as well as foot
ball.
That many folks cooperated in
our big soil testing program this
year. Let’s cooperate next year to
make it into a big Soil Fertility
Program that will mean millions
to Newberry County.
That Tom Riser gets better
calves than any bull in Newberry
County.
That I. M. Smith has a dairy
herd to support his hog-raising
operation.
That the weather man didn’t
try to satisfy everybody this year.
It was bad enough as it was.
That efficient farmers can still
make a good living from farming.
That Turkeys are bringing a
better price this Thanksgiving
than last.
That “Straw” Paysinger, may
someday grow beef cattle as well
as he used to grow chickens.
That farmers are still free to
till the soil in such a way as to
make our nation the best fed, best
clothed, and best housed T^ople in
the world.
