The rains we have been having
have been very beneficial to most
farmers. The ground was beginn
ing to crust over and in some in
stances get hard from the hot
days and wind.
There is still small grain and
grasses to be combined but here
again most fields are still in good
shape in that very little wind ac
companied the rain.
Even though the rain will keep
many people out of the fields they
plan to poison, either dusting or
spraying, the rain will help to
some extent in the control of
many insects. This will be particu
larly true in regards to aphids
and thrips on cotton. The boll
weevils and bollworms, however,
seem to thrive under such condi
tions.
The recommendation of a 5 day
dusting or spray schedule is al
most a must at this time. There
are many insecticides on the mar
ket with almost as many formu
las of each. Information Card 97
will answer most of your cotton
insecticide questions. If you did
not get one through the mail they
are available at the County Ag
ent’s office.

county. This is to be expected as
1 To Attend
Assembly In
New York
T. L. Brooks of Newberry, ad
vocates family worship as a deter
rent against juvenile delinquency.
Mr. Brooks and his wife, Marcia,
and young son will serve as dele
gates to an eight-day internation
al convention of Jehovah’s Wit
nesses, scheduled for Yankee stad
ium in New York, July 7.14.
Mr. Brooks is one minister that
is concerned about juvenile delin
quency and recommends such
meetings as a means of combat
ting the increase in crime among
youngsters. He also stresses fam
ily worship as the strongest wea
pon against indifference among
juveniles toward God and their
responsibilities to their fellowman.
“In this age of expediency,” he
said, “many would rather see a
good example than be one. In a
competitive world, setting a good
example is not always convenient
or advantageous. Thus,” he said,
“bad examples flourish. Rudeness
is excused as haste. Lying and
hypocrisy are masqueraded as dip
lomacy. Tough talk proves man
hood and as for cheating at school
—well, ‘everybody does it.’ ”
Deteriorating morals have been
described under the heading of a
psychological safety valve,” h e
continued, “and there is a lack of
emphasis placed upon Christian
pr'nciples. It has been said, ‘You
ay not be totally worthless—
the chinch bug moves from grain you cou i(i se rve as a bad example.”
fields into adjoining fields aft
the grain is cut. The rain that
was mentioned as helping control
of thrips and aphids will be of
help in the control of the chinch
bug. In the event an insecticide is
necessary for their control Para-
thion will probably give the best
results, remember to use safety
precautions when applying and a
two week waiting time before
crop can be foraged or harvested.
Sevin may be used and it is safer
to apply but not as effective.
JUNE DAIRY MONTH
Just because it is not mentioned
every day on the radio or in the
Mr. Brooks said the purpose for
setting a good example is for oth
ers to copy. In quoting Dr. Angelo
Patri, Mr. Brooks made this obser
vation from the book “How To
Help Your Child Grow Up”: “Par
ents have to discipline themselves,
make good models, set good pat
terns for children. You cannot
teach religion to a child unless you
possess it in your mind and soul
and practice it while you live out
your days beside him. If you have
not kept faith with your children,
it is idle for you to send him for
religious instruction. What you
are, he knows; what you do, he

products are the most nearly per
fect food and should be included
in our daily diet.
Milk was available to our young
sters daily while they were going
to school so why not have even
more for them while they are at
home. Milk and milk products can
be fixed in so many delicious ways
or just served plain. In the mid

you lead your children in the love
of God? Love Him and do His
will and they will go along with
you. What you would be, expresses
| in your daily example.”
Mr. Brooks said family worship
is more than taking your child
ren to church, or worse, sending
them. He says it is a matter of
each member of the family under
standing and appreciating a prop-*
er relationship with God and how
it can be maintained.
“Good discipline is teaching a
child what is expected of him,” he
said. “It means setting down rules
and regulations he will follow.
Children need a clear-cut, uncon
fused picture of the rules you
expect them to keep. It is nec
essary that these rules have a
strong foundation such as the
Bible,” he said.
In concluding, Mr. Brooks said
stronger laws and tougher en
forcement are not the answer' to
juvenile delinquency. He said
such delinquency is the result of
the break-down in morals among
adults. He also pointed to the I
changing views the world has ad
opted on moral values.
“I read recently an article by
Dr. Benjamin Spock,” he said,
“on the subject of punishment and
he said this: ‘Punishment is the
substitute, emergency method
when the regular system of discip
line breaks down. Even then pun
ishment doesn’t do much good un
less there is sound character un
derneath and a loving relation
ship, as all the cases of habitual
criminals prove. Good discipline is
mainly based on mutual love and
respect. In childhood it has to be
reinforced with teaching, firm
ness and reminders.”
“This thought certainly harmon
izes with the Bible when it states
at Proverbs 22:6, ‘Train up a boy
according to the way for him;
even when he grows old he will
not turn aside from it.”
Mr. Brooks said conventions of
Jehovah’s Witnesses are designed
as a regular part of their educa
tional program and are designed
for all members of the family. All
will assemble when the first ses
sion commences at Yankee stadium
July 7th, equipped with notebook,
Bible and willing ear—ready to
learn together.

PRESlOENT—NATIONAL
EDUCATION PROGRAM
Seercy, Arkansas
ELECTION POST-MORTEM
We hope that the result of the
recent wheat referendum will
serve as a notice to the U. S. de
partment of Agriculture and to
the Congress that this particular
segment of America’s farmers
want less, not more, federal inter
vention and control. If the vote
for stringent wheat controls had
been yes, this might have meant
closing the door to a free agricul
ture Already having a foot in
the door toward full management
of the nation’s farmers, the USD A
wanted to take a full step that
could have led quickly to controls
across the board.
“Satisfactory farm programs
are difficult to formulate.” Thus
began a pre-election folder dis
tributed by the Extension Service
to Arkansas wheat growers. You
can certainly say that again and
again. You don’t need to tell the
farmer, however, for he knows it
well enough. Congress, after many
perennial failures of its efforts to
“do something,” should be getting
the message that the farmer does
not want to be regimented. This
idea apparently has not occurred
to Secretary Freeman, who un
doubtedly will try again to obtain
the power to say who, what and
when to farmers.
Preparing To Vote
Regardless of the outcome of
the recent election, the power-
seekers will not give up. Since
other “elections” may be attempt
ed in the future, certain conclu
sions might be drawn from the
conduct of this one. First of all,
one might wonder whether it is
advisable to have an election con
ducted by an agency that is far
from impartial. The Secretary was
insisting to the last that he could
tell no faimer how to vote, yet
his propaganda was flowing out
from Washington in a tidal wave.
He himself was declaring on the
eve of the election that a favorable
vote meant $2 wheat, an oversim
plification that could easily de
ceive.
Apparently the USD A was hop
ing the small farmer would not
influence the results, for the vot
ing was made difficult for the
small farmer. He alone was re
quired to register in advance and
to declare himself ready to partic
ipate in the program if it was
accepted. Doesn’t it seem obvious
that such tactics could have kept
some from voting ?
Who Should Vote?
The Secretary also called May
21 “an important day” for the
wheat farmer. What he did not
say was that it also was an im
portant day for other kinds of
farmers, especially feeders of cat
tle. Considerations of freedom
aside, how would a wheat farmer
who also grows livestock and buys
feed make a decision about his
vote? And what of every consum
er and every taxpayer, for all
have an economic stake in this
complicated problem. This was
more than an election in whidh, as
the Secretary announced, the
farmer would set the price for his
1964 wheat.
As to the election procedures,
the USD A, while making small
growers “elect” to participate in
order to Vote, allowed the vote to
both tenants and landlords, hus
bands and wives, and even children
of wheat farmers who share in the
crop. The government appears to
have been trying to do everything
possible to get itself a favorable
vote. Various farm groups and as
sociations Were fighting out the
issues and calling for yes or no
votes, but this is an entirely dif
ferent thing from government at
tempts at influencing the referen
dum.
The Important Issue
But freedom was apparently
the big issue. It is significant that
all Americans are freeholders of
important rights and privilege#
from which they ought not be dis
possessed. Farmers are perhaps
the freest of all, and it is no sec
ret that they will suffer economic
disadvantage«/n qfder to keep a#
much freedom of action as pos
sible. But when the market is les#
free as a result of government in
tervention, so that the individual
has to be coerced by bureaucratic .
decrees, we all suffer. Any man’s
loss of freedom hurts me.
Despite attempts to influence
the vote, wheat growers have turn
ed down the certificate plan. The
power hungry may try again. let
us remain forewarned that pro
posals for government manage
ment, if accepted, can one by one*
take away freedom. Whether
these are “programs” established
by Congress or beguilements of
power-seeking politicians, we shall
have to keep saying NO if we
are to keep America from being
engulfed in the socialist wave of
the future.
Striped Bass In
Lake Murray
COLUMBIA.-—The first success
ful rearing of striped bass in a
hatchery pond has been completed
by the Wildlife Resources depart
ment with the release of 3,700 lit
tle stripers in Lake Murray.
The fish had been brought up
from the department’s hatchery on
the Santee-Cooper tailrace canal
around the middle of May, when
they were one day old and about
the size of the head of a pin. They
had been held in. a three-quarter
acre pond at the Four-County
hatchery near Newberry. Although
there is always heavy mortality
among freshly-hatched fish, the
survivors grew rapidly reaching
an average size of 2.4 inches in the
month they were held before re
lease.
This is the latest step in the
department’s efforts to get strip
ed bass established in up-state
reservoirs, which began in 1955
with the transfer of 300 adult
stripers from Santee-Cooper, av
eraging 10 pounds, to Lake Green
wood. Since then 35,000 fish, some
adults but mostly fingerlings,
have been released in Murray,
Greenwood, Catawba - Wateree,
Clark Hill, Hartwell and other

FOR AND ABOUT TEENAGERS
By C. D. Sm *i
Going Steady - With Uncle Sam’s Help
THE WEEK’S LETTER: “This
concerns a statement made in
your column to the effect that
“there is no such thing as going
steady once a week.” This is not
necessarily correct, because go
ing steady does not require con
stant companionship. I am young,
almost seventeen. I began dating
a boy in another town when I was
thirteen. We began going steady
when fifteen. Because we live so
far apart, sometimes we can’t see
each other for three weeks or a
month. But since we are very
fond of each "'er and do not date
others, we constant in our
letter writing. Don't you consider
this going steady?”
OUR REPLY: You have raised
a technical point which we con
sider quite unimportant. A mother
in Mississippi, for instance, would
have absolutely no objection to a
thirteen-year-old daughter “going
steady” with a fifU i3n-year-old
boy who lived in Fairbanks,
Alaska. Let the lad move to the
same town in Mississippi, though,
and mother would immediately
become concerned.
The thing that is most wrong
with boys and girls “going steady”
in their early teens is this con
stant companionship to which you
refer. They want to devote their
full time and attention to one an
other. They tend to become obliv
ious to tiie things that go on
around them. The things in life
that are really important mean
nothing at all to them. They just
want “to be together,” in their
own private little world.
When they grow older, boys and
girls begin to realize that, while
love is indeed “wonderful,” there
are other important things in life.
Young people must learn to do
things. They must prepare them
selves, through education, appli
cation and training, to make their
way in the world; to become
teachers, tradesmen — and par
ents. To do this, they must from
time to time bring their heads
down from the clouds.
