YOUR VOTE & SUPPORT WILL BE APPRECIATED At the meeting pf the Drayton Rutherford Chapter, UDC, on Tuesday, Mrs. M. F. Bowler as leader for the historical period presented eight from her group of the fchildren’s Chapter to give the program. They were Henry Sum- £i mer, Husk glitzier, Walter Rum mer, Gail Phillips, Elizabeth Blair,. Polly Livingston, Gretchen Anderson and Nan Buddih. Following the salutes 1 to the flag, the group took over, each with an assignment. One gave the devotional with scripture and pra yer; then each of the others gave some life of President Davis as soldier, statesman, president of the Con federacy, prisoner of war, and his last years at his home at Beauyoif. Since some states ob serve Confederate Memorial Day on May 30th and others on June I FARMS AND FOLKS By J. M. ELEAZER Clemson Extension information Speciahai KEEPING ABREAST 4-H clubs sure keep abreast of agricultural change*, in South Car olina. In fact they have spear headed much of the vast change we have seen come in our time. While in Sumter I detected more evidence of this. The agents told me they had a Horsemanship Club with 50 boys and girls in it. Horses have dwindled there as work ani mals. But for recreation and plea sure, saddle horses are staging a mild comeback. Not only there but and electricity. There’s a lot of know-how needed for their safest use. Aiken held its fourth annual school for gardeners back in March. County Agent Mellette tells me 135 folks attended the morning session and 165 the afternoon one. Gardening! With the high cost of living, it is more important now. A good garden is one thing you can reduce your cost of living with. A small one, well taken care of, is best. And as soon as one vegetable starts failing, take it out and plant another one there. A small plot of land, watered as needed and mulched, can sure turn out the fine vegetables. And with freezing and canning, it can be made to count clear on out through the year. MODERNIZING From County Agent Jackson of Williamsburg: “Calls continue to come for farm planning visits. Farmers are more aware tlr n evei D.P. at many places. But most young outstanding feature of the [-folks came up without learning the ways of a horse. So this group in Sumter is getting the rudiments of horsemanship in their 4-H Club. Sumter was one of the early counties with tractor and electric clubs. These now have record en rollments there, I was told. Rather 3rd, the history of Memorial Day new things on our farms, tractors was given; also a reading of Timrod’s beautiful “Ode” written and read for the Memorial Day services in Charleston just after the War Between the States. The program was thoroughly enjoyed by the 16 members of the adult chapter, sincere apreciation being expressed to Mrs. Bowler and to the children. The Children Chapter does fine work in teach ing its members Southern and Confederate history. The interest taken by the children is most re warding to the leaders of these groups: Mesdames Elmer Shealy, Bloomer Hawkins, M. F. Bowler; and Miss Sallie Lee Cromer. Mrs. Ruby Trice sees that all mem bership papers are correctly filled. After the children adjourned in to the home for refreshments, the chapter proceeded with business, the meeting being held on* the spacious rear porch of the home of Mrs. E. E. Westwood. , After the minutes, reports were given. The president reported that notes of appreciation had been sent to Dr. Grier, Mayor Layton, Chief Dowd, Miss Paris, and Miss Hitt whose services con tributed so much to the Memorial Day exercises. Mrs. T. E. Davis reported that 21 burying grounds had been cleared during her four years of membership on the com mittee, the most recent being Dun can’s Creek, Reagin, Clark, Hen derson, and one near Peak for which a name has not been found. In the absence of Mrs. Shealy, co-chairman of the CofC chapter, Mrs. A. J. Briggs read the yearly report which was to be given at the state convention in Abbeville June 6 and 7, and also at the general convention in Houston in August. It is n remarkable report and it is hoped that it will win for this chapter for the third time tlje highest award given in the organization. Mrs. T. B. Lester reported that cards were sent to sick members. Mrs. Griffith, as chairman, gave' a general report for Con federate Memorial Day, an oc casion that proved to be impres sive and inspiring. The chapter is most appreciative of the fine work of Mrs. Griffith and her committee. , The president reported that a letter had been sent to Mrs. E. B. Setzler, telling her that the chap ter had conferred upon her an Honorary Membership in deep appreciation of her many years of devoted service that had meant so much to the chapter’s ad vancement; sincere regret that now she is unable to attend the meetings. The last item of business was the report # of the nominating committee for officers for 1960- 61. In the absence of the chairman Mrs. Louis Floyd, Mrs. Griffith read the report as follows: Pres ident, Mrs. Ralph B. Baker; 1st vice-president, Mrs* R. D. Wright; 2nd vice-president, Mrs. T. E. Da vis; 3rd vice-president, Mrs. El mer Shealy; recording secretary, Mrs. A. J. Briggs; corresponding secretary, Mrs. T. B. Lester; treasurer, Mrs. L. G. McCullough; historian, Mrs. J. E. Wiseman; registrar, Mrs. D. O. Carpenter; Chaplain, Mrs. H. H. Parr; Agent UDC magazine, Mrs. McCullough. These were unanimously elected. The members stood with bowled heads while Mrs. Ralph Baker Chairman of the Memorial Com mittee, read a beautiful tribute to Mrs. J. Y. McFall, a former president of Drayton Rutherford Chapter and a loyal, devoted worker in the chapter until her removal to Greenville, continuing her interest and membership as long as she lived. After the meeting, the members enjoyed- delicious refreshments. must raised and that yield costs cut.” Yes, that’s in step with the times. Farms are growing larger so as to give hustling operators more to work with. Mechanization, too, is a part of it all? And th5rt calls for larger acreages on which to operate more efficiently. Through it all then an eye has to be kept on producing at cheaper cost per unit. TOMATO DISEASES In an attempt to keep out dis eases often carried on tomato plants from further south, county agents of Beaufort and Charleston tell me a number of growers in each of those counties tried out growing their own early plants this year. Some of these most trouble some diseases do not live over here. But they build up early in Florida. Unless we are very care ful to get certified plants from what.” If you didn’t understand the first time, you just didn’t get it. Fcr when you asked “what?” the answer you got was “That’s what.” Then we had some entirely meaningless things we’d say over and over, when we had nothing else to say or do. One that Irecall was “topeka leeka, genuell, cack- well bone.” And another, “Hoot nan nanny and a hot cha-cha.” Therq;was another popular orie of a little different sort. It had to do with ^meeting a friend along a lonely path or road, with an- othdPlone o#9t> alon|Hto hear yqu. We’d say, “Hey there! I hairly knewed you when I sawed you came roding down the road on those little red mule.” Of course, there was no nciule at all. {The other one would «likeiy reply, “Just who are you anyway? Your face looks familiar; but your feet have grow^i the;clear out of my knowledge.” Just country banter. As we know things now, there wasn’t much go ing on out /in the deep country then. But there was never a dull moment. For we made our fun as we went along. ♦ * and most efficient use. Through I there, we have |a good chance, of these clubs many of the young ^ bringing disease! in on them. And folks are getting it. . * 1 ' —- 1 — GARDENING SCHOOL with that early start here, they can play havoc with our crop. Of course, we can and do spray a- gainst most of them. But some times the weather is so we can’t do this job as it should be dope. So the safe thing is to put out completely healthy plants if at all possible. MARK THE CALENDAR Farm and Home Week at Clem son is August 15-18. This event grows in scope, interest, and attendance through the years. Last year they had to extend the tent housing exhibits that needed shel ter to 400 feet. McKenzie tells me it looks like it will have to be ex tended to 600 feet this year.
