You’ll tempt the most languid appetite if you pre pare simple foods in a new fashion. Sausage Wheels served with pineapple juice, ready-to-eat cereal and scrambled eggs are the makings of a top-notch breakfast. Because Sausage Wheels are a biscuit-meat combination, they add both appeal and good nutrition to the menu. This attrac tive and tasty breakfast dish made with enriched self-rising flour offers calcium, food iron and three B-vitamins to benefit your family’s health. You make your breakfast biscuit baking easy, too, when you use enriched self-rising flour. Baking powder and salt have a 1 r e a d v been blehded with self-rising flour to save you time and energy. To make Sausage Wheels for breakfast, first brown the sausage. While the meat is cooking, mix the biscuit dough, then follow the recipe directions for combining the two to make crusty, golden biscuit wheels. While the biscuits are baking, prepare and set out the other breakfast foods. Here’s the time saving Sausage Wheel recipe that makes this hearty break fast possible. SAUSAGE WHEELS 1 pound pork sausage meat \/ A cup shortening or salad oil* 2 cups sifted enriched self- »/ 2 to 2 i cup milk rising flour Cook sausage in skillet until all red color disappears Do not •brown. Drain off as much fat as possible. Measure flour into mixing bowl. Cut or rub in shortening. Add milk to make a soft dough (*If salad oil or sausage fat is used, add it with the milk.) Turn out on lightly floured board or pastry cloth and knead yently 30 seconds. Roll out to rectangle about 8x12 inches. Scatter cooked sausage meat evenly over dough. Roll up like jelly roll, ’ut ir' -inch slices and place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake ho* (425°F.) until lightly browned about 15 to 20 minutes.

Williams has reminded me that bass will start spawning when the water temper ature reaches 60 degrees F. Bream will start when it reaches 65 degrees. In order to produce an abun dance of fish food, ponds will need fertilizer. ‘‘Fertilizing not only produces fish food, but is also the best known method of controlling weeds,” Sam said. He suggests a fertilizer ratio of 8 parts nitrogen 8 parts phos phorus, and 2 parts of potash. Fertilizer stores often have a spe cial mixture of 20-20-5, which is all right, and should be used at the rate of 40 pounds fo” each acre of pond. Calcium is another element that most ponds need for fertility. Apply it in the form of lime at a rate of about one ton per acre. Broken plaster from an old house will help. In the Sandhill area, a 10 pound block of livestock salt is recom mended for adding additional minerals. However, if you supply your nitrogen in the form of ni trate of soda, the salt is usually not needed. Water plants will respond to fertilizer when the temperature begins to rise. Normally, favor able temperatures for spawning occurs the latter part of March, or later. some nice profits could solve them. Record-keeping is a paying practice. County Agent. J. C. King of Orangeburg told me how a Nor way dairyman used records to more cleverly manage a herd of dairy cattle. A gain of 4,259 pounds of milk and 141 pounds of butterfat per cow resulted after a three year period! Records of milk and butterfat production, regularity of calving, and length of lactation for each cow t were recorded. Also the incidence of disease, and feed costs were kept. With these, the dairyman laun ched a culling program that elim inated the less efficient cows. THE VaeutA -m Corn also responds to high fer tilization. Carol Dobson, Hampton Coun ty, farming for the first time last year, averaged 92 bushels an acre on 200 acres. He followed Clemson’s maxi mum fertilizer recommendation. Why do farmers need a profit? One reason is high investment. The South Carolina Public Rela tions Council says that $27,000 is invested for each farm worker in this state. By comparison, other industries invest $15,000. Financing agriculture is now big business. Farmers must do a good job of managing capital if their business is to survive. “Agricultural credit helps far mers stimulate the economy, but it is no substitute for income,” the Council said. Recently, capital accumulation by farm operators has been slow er than actual needs. Farm problems may be wrapped up in such terms as “cost-price squeeze” and “farm dilemma,” but they are not so great but that York County will have 75 acres of new vineyard this year. Growers are completing the planting of over 37,000 new grape vines. The grapes will go to the juice plant of the Palmetto Grape Marketing Association in Spart anburg. J. D. Miller and his staff are conducting demonstrations on lay ing out, planting, and pruning. A new crop is not easy to get started. With old crops, we just “inherit” a lot of inforna'aFon that we sometimes take for gran ted. To this, we can add the new technology bit by bit, and it comes fairly easy. But with a new one — bang! You’ve got all the problems and questions right from the start. That’s why I’ll take off my hat to those who are willing to try the new ones. One hundred dollars a tree! Mature pecan trees are big. They also can produce a large crop. Two trees belonging to Rich ard Harrison of Fairfield Coun ty made 843 pounds last year. When sold, they brought in $199.- 45, D. G. Belton, our Negro Ag ricultural agent there, says. At that rate, lu trees would grow nuts valued at $1,000. It should be pointed out how ever, that pecans were in short supply last fall, and we' had a good market. This is a good time for a re minder to order pecan trees fairly soon if you're to get them in this winter. Clemson recommends the var ieties Stuart, Cape Fear, Curtis, Desirable, Elliott, and Farley. Buy one-year-old plants and space them 60 x 60 feet. By Thomas Collins IS IT PRACTICAL AT 65 TO BE THIS PRACTICAL? ftTT was always my desire, and my wife’s, to live on in our suburban home after I retired. Our total income added up to $410 a month and since our home was paid for, we knew we could manage well enough. .“However, I have had time to play with figures since I retired last November, and I am finding it quite impractical for a busi nessman to cling to his suburban home after retirement, even if he can afford it. “I figure our home Is worth $16,000. This money is equivalent to $640 a year if I invested it at 4 per cent. I pay $425 taxes, about $150 a year in upkeep and about $250 in insurance, trash collec tions, lawn care and incidentals. “All of this totals about $1,465 a year. “There are other basic ex penses I must pay strictly be cause I live in this particular house and on this particular street. We have a straight phone line. I don’t went all our friends to know we nave changed to a party line. In our house we have jeven rooms to heat during the winter when as a matter of fact we live in three of them. I don’t want the neighbors to see us closing off rooms to save on heat. “There are other costs of a so cial nature that we are also en trapped with simply because we live in this house. Our church contributions, entertaining and the fees at the one club we be long to must either remain the same as they were before I re tired or people will think—very - naturally—that we are financially embarrassed. “Altogether I estimate we are spending around $2,500 a year to hold to our suburban home. In a small town, in what you de scribe as sunshine country* I think we could live in rental quarters even nicer than oar home, though smaller, for $1,200 a year . . .” These are the “practical” con clusions that many men living in the city come to not long after retirement. In the five years befere a man retires, which are usually dm most lucrative of Ids career, he and his wife themselves with living: are difficult or cut. In the normal urban munity of $16,000 homes, 1 think the figure of $2,549 a year this man has estimated Is slant normal But if there is enough money k in the retirement budget to af-. ford this $2,500, it doesn’t really matter whether it’s practical os not. Retirement is for living; and there are 24 hours a day el it. A cost of $2,500 a year—or fc the case of this man a net coat $1,300 a year—is cheap pries * for living that is to your liking. If you wanted to' carry the reasoning of this man to its eas> treme, he and his wife could go to a South Sea island, live in a hut, eat bananas and fish, and be as practical as all get out.
