Wayne Martin, Residence Phone 2110 BY COUNTY AGENTS Soil Fertility Important " We must not Sell Short the im portance of an increased Soil Fer tility Program in Newberry Coun ty. Our series of soil fertility meetings held this week indicate there is still much we can do tow ard increasing our crop yields and our farm income through a more intensive Soil Fertility Program. How do we know it’s possible? Here are a few examples that prove we are already benefiting from an increased Soil Fertility Program in South Carolina: 1,000 pounds of beef per acre from grass alone! $3 to $18 return for every dol lar invested in fertilizer in S. C.! 11 tons of hay per acre from Coastal Bermuda! 3 bales of Cotton per acre! ,190 Bu. Corn per acre! , f Yes, these are but a few ex amples of production we know is possible because it has already been done in our own state. Of course, it takes good management along with good soil to make such production possible. But on the other hand, all the management in the world would not hiake such production possible without ade quate soil fertility! We know that here in Newberry County, Agriculture is still im portant. Also we know that our fu ture in agriculture is entirely de pendent on our continued soil pro ductivity. Further, we know that someone is going to produce our NOTICE OF JURY DRAWING We, the undersigned Jury Com missioners of Newberry County, shall on Wednesday, March 9th, 1960, at 9 o’clock, A.

At the same time, the names of thirty-six (36) men will be drawn to serve as Petit Jurors for the Court of General Sessions (Crim inal), which will convene in New berry County Courthouse on Mon day, March 21st, 1960, at ten o’clock A. M. Burke M. Wise, Clerk of Court Ralph B. Black, Auditor % J. Ray Dawkins, Treasurer. February 24th, 1960. Itc think Henry has one of the best we’ve ever seen. Scientific know-how plus hard work, we think pretty well sums up the story at Headsprings Farms. The best possible produc tion from a balanced program of feeding, breeding and management has largely accounted for the not able progress made here. Best of all we think is that this is a local example of “it car. be done.** Now we hope the judges will give due recognition to Henry’s accomplishments in the National Contest. Also our hat’s off to the local Jaycees for their sponsor- ski t A of the Young Farmer Award and for their interest in Newberry County Agriculture.* Small Grains Need Attention Continued wet weather has de layed two important jobs on al? Newberry County farms. These are topdressing small grains with nitrogen and spraying for weed control. As soon as weather per mits now these two jobs need im mediate attention. In using 2,4-D for weed control in small grains, here are a few pointers: 1. Pay for “Kill” instead of the can. Clemson’s College’s recom mendations all are based on 4 pounds per gallon acid equivalent. When you buy 2 pounds per gallon acid equivalent, you have to use a double dose to get the same effect. 2. 2,4-D works best when ap plied on sunny days at tempera ture of 70 degrees or above. Stick as near to this kind of weather as possible. Don’t spray when it is raining or is threatening rain. 3. 2,4-D applied to small grains after the plants begin jointing weakens the stalk. Lodging or fall ing down may result from spray ing After the small grains begin to joint. 4. Topdressing with nitrogen helps small grains quickly ovar- W Theatre THURSDAY, FRIDAY & SATURDAY Glenn Ford, Debbie Reynolds, Carl Reiner ' The Gazebo MONDAY & TUESDAY Alain Delon, Mylene Demongeot, Pascale Petit 3 Murderesses CLOVER LEAF DRIVE-IN Theatre FRIDAY & SATURDAY ’ T Fort Dobbs Clint Walker, Virginia Mayo - Added Color Cartoon—Baby Butch come the effects of spraying for weed control. Use 30 to 50 pounds of available N per acre. Last Call for Planting and Pruning Spring is about to burst forth and that means things like fruit or pecan trees, scrubs, etc. should be set out not later than March 1st. This means you are going to have to get busy now if you have not completed these jobs. It is still safe to prune fruit trees, grape vines, and various shrubs. Pruning does away with ->ld, undesirable, and diseased wood, making way for new wood to pro duce flowers, nuts, and fruit. By planting now, as soon as weather permits, you will still plant during the dormant stage of most fruit trees and various shrubs. As soon as we get a little more warm weather many of these plants will begin 3$ put but new growth. You want to have them in the soil with proper fertilizer and proper planting practices to offer these plants every opportunity fc success. Drop by our office or “County Agents Office”, and ask for the bulletins culars with information your plant problem or general formation, about plants with you are concerned. /|- fc'Svj K.
