Henry as you know represented South Carolina at the National Young Farmer Contest held at Bakersfield, California. t “More fabulous than I had even imagin ed,” was the words Henry used to describe farming operations in that section of our great country. Everything on a big scale! Big acres of crops, high yields, and strict business management seems evident in all the stories about farming out west. Well you know what? That’s the only way they can farm out there and stay in business. High land values, high labor and other high costs of pro duction make small scale fgraing practically impossible out there. Big Volume with small profits per unit is the only way they know i how to farm. One thing we are always im pressed with about those farmers i« their dependence on water to irrigate their crops. Without this avapabt* water they would be out of business over night. Water is life to them and it might not al ways be as available aa it is now for such widespread irrigation purposes. We were glad to bear Henry’s appraisal of our way of -farming as compared with opt there. “A good farmer here would make even a better farmer out there,” , he stated. “Farming is mo«t_of an art here while it’s strictly business in that country.” Yes, Sir!’ We can still compete with California or any other sec- Mittie had a good trip to Califor- i’re glad anr ‘ I kiso we’ Chamber of Commerce see* - fit to participate in the Young \ s Farmer Program. bit more like we already know wa should be doing.
