Of course drivers’ licenses should

rather an inane nuisance to stop
people in the middle of a hot af

for such a purpose, unless there
was evidence of unsafe driving.
Certainly earlier in the morninp

than annoyinK motorists on a hvt

THE TRIP
Back to the trip—since 1 don’t
seem to have much else to write
about—we thought the girls would
be interested in seeing a “real, live
Indian” so we took them up to
the Indian Reservation at Chero
kee.
On the way up, we went through
Highlands, which claims to be the
“highest incorporated city east of
the Rockies” and a few miles on
to Bridal Veil Falls, then to Dry
Falls. The girls still can’t under
stand that name, but we assume it
was so-named because one can
walk all the way around behind
the falls to the other side. This is
a National Forest Service project,
no charge for the looking, and is
certainly one of the most beauti
ful sights we saw in our wander
ings about the mountains. I
would highly recommend it if you
are going that way—it is a few
miles out of Highlands on the
road to Franklin. Incidentally we
ran into Florida Republicans
there, and the concession keeper
at the Falls said “this is Macon
County—a real Republican strong
hold.” He wasn’t a bit happy about
what the present Administration is
doing in Washington, and he did
n’t mind letting anyone know it.
We went on up to Franklin and
Ruthie spotted a motel with swim
ming pool so that decided it—we
had reached our destination for
the night. They were doubly de
lighted to find that a river ran

which is most attractive and m
torestinp. From there, we Mint on
to Oroiiahiftee Village, railed the
"living Indian village." I hey tell
you to begin with, however, that
Indians do not live there; they
on 1\ work there in the summer tv’
show how Indians did live Fuck in
the days prior to arrival id the
white man in this eountry.
The Village is very interest my.
Well edm-ated young Cherokces
explained the various ptiases of
Indian living as one wandered
through t he villagi, others gave
leet lies about history and eus
toms of the ('herokeos.
We did not stay to mm* "I nto
These Hills” because of tin* long
drive hark over the mountams at
night and we thought the girls
would enjoy it more in a year or
two. We did look at tin Mountain
side Theatre, where the play 1-
staged each night 1 \cept Monday,
anil it is u beautiful setting. I
spoke to a number of tourists at
till' motel who had seen "l nto
These Hills" and all said it was
well worth the price of admission.
Coming back down the moun
tains Sunday, we stopped at ( Utt
side 1’ark, another National Forest
Service area, which has sheltered
and open picnic area and cook out
facilities, hiking trails and a
mountain lake and concession
stand. It’s a pretty good little
hike from the parking area down
to the lake and back but it is an
other scenic area pleasant to visiL
We didn’t try the lake, but the
girls waded in the stream which
fed the lake—and learned again
that mountain "water is cold. This
is only a short distnee from Dry
Fulls and thr. girls couldn’t pass
then without seeing the waterfall
aguir —and that was another good
hike. By that time, they were both
tired enough .0 settle down quiet
ly until we got hack down into
South Carolina. They were no
longer interested in sightseeing,
hut as we drove through Clemson,
we roused them enough to take a
look at the John C. Calhoun home.
Fort Hill and the beautiful back
waters of Hartwell Dam. Clerr.ion
is a different-looking place these
days.
It was a nice trip—but it’s al
ways good to get back home again.

Frank Hawkins said as she wield-!
«‘<l a juunt brush for Lht* annual
paint job on the Fneie Sam ilgure
that holds the family mail box at
their home on Route 4. Newberry.
For thr past 20 years, on ,iu:y
4, Mrs. Hawk.ns pets out her,
brush and throe cans of paint and
gives thr tall. met gontirman
what Mrs. Hawkins terms a "new
paint suit."
This year, as usual. Mrs. Hawk-

sary red, white and blue paint-—
and this year she also bought a
new paint brush in readiness lot
the annual paint job.
"He really looks good, so real,
and from a distame he looks lise
a person standing beside the high
way after Ins new paint suit,"
Mrs. Hawkins said. She devised
the idea for the t’nele Sam figure!
mail box when the county demon- 1
stration agent encouraged rural |
families to improve their home
surroundings anil had the improve
ment of mail box locations as a
part of thr project.
The Hawkins mail box has come
in mighty handy to direct people
who have come to the Hawkins
farm from all over the state. “We

Jesse Frank” and “Miss Anna”
are people who always think of
others first. They have meant
much to the agricultural, civic
and religious life of the county
and have also won statewide rec
ognition in their farming activi
ties.
Mr. Hawkins is recognized as
the man who introduced year-
round annua! grazing program for
dairy cattle in this state. Through
out the years people have come to
watch the farming operations on
the Hawkins farm; they have
come to watch guernsey dairy, 4-H
Club field days, and many other
types of farm meetings led by
Clemson College Extension spec
ialists.
Mr. and Mrs. Hawkins received
the Balance Award of Merit in
1952. They also received the first
grassland farmer trophy in 1954
and a check for $600. Mr. Hawkins
has been recognized by the Guern
sey Association as a pioneer
guernsey breeder. He was named
Citizen of the Year locally by the
Moose Order in 1955 and has held
offices in dairy ana farm organi
zations during the years.

SCD Supervisors
Take A Trip
The Newberry Soil Conservation
District Supervisors visited Wat-
kinsville, Georgia last week to
study soil and water conservation.
They were joined at the station by
01 hers from the Broad River area
of the South Carolina Association
of Soil Conservation District Sup
ervisors. The Watkinsville Experi
ment Station is the Department
of Agriculture’s research con ter
for studies in soil and water con
servation on Piedmont soils.
W. B. Wilkerson, Jr., Hickory
Grove, Area Vice President, was
in charge of the local group. He
was impressed with the amount of
work being done at the station
which could help local farmers
conserve more soil and water and
at the same time increase yields.
The group observed plots on
which studies were being made af
ter each rain of the run-off ero
sion and infiltration. Soil and wa
ter losses have been measured on
these plots since 1937.
Observations were made of plots
on which a number of different
cropping systems are being stud
ied. Results being sought include
methods of planting, cultivation,
and fertilization for maximum con
servation and yields.
In addition to the plot work, the
station is operating three types of
small farms—dairy, beef cattle,
and feeder beef cattle. On these
farms studies include grasses and
their management, fertilization and
overall management for cash re
turns.
Newberry SCD Supervisors at
tending included E. J. Bedenbaugh,
C. T. Smith, S. C. Paysinger and
G. E. Young. Soil Conservation
Service Technician E. E. Epting
accompanied the NewBerry Super
visors.
A number of high officials of
the state government and Clemson
College are to review the develop
ment of the egg business in New
berry county, and particularly at
Silveistreet, at a special meeting
to be held Friday, July 27.
According to Clemson Extension
Service, the egg business in New*-
berry County has been one of the
most encouraging aspects of agri
culture in this state since 1957.
Farm value of eggs sold in the
county has increased from $791,-
000 in 1957 to $1,777,000 last year.
Newberry leads all other counties
in egg production, which has be
come a 31 million dollar business
in the state. Recent events in
processing and marketing at Sil-
verstreet have broadened the mar
keting potential immensely.
The meeting will he held at
Waldrop Brothers at Silverstreet
beginning at 4:00 p.m. on July 27
and will be concluded with the
small group having supper at
Panorama Lodge at 6 p.m.
County Agent A1 Busby, in an-
1 A .
nouncing the meeting, stated:
“We at the local level are aware
that the credit for most of the
progress in egg production in this
county must go to Dave Waldrop
w’ho, along with his two brothers,
have developed egg marketing in
to an important economic asset in
Newberry County.
“Waldrop Bros., inc., now mar
kets over 4,000 cases of eggs
weekly and pays local producers
for eggs a; the rate of one and
one-half million dollars annually.
Their weekly processing plant pay
roll is in excess of $2500. Their
processing facilities, including the
recently completed egg breaking
plant, are among the finest in the
country and are now under U. S.
Department of Agriculture inspec
tion. This facility is now equipped
to sell eggs to any and all mark
ets.
Since the egg marketing busi
ness is becoming increasingly more
competitive,” Mr. Busby continued,
“and since this enterprise means
much to the economy of Newberry
County, we feel that some special
recognition should fce given to this
important local industry.”
Mr. Busby said that the meeting-
would be attended by about 30
persons including Clemson College
officials, certain representatives
of the poultry industry, and a few
local persons.
