How Should You Choose An
INSURANCE AGENT?
With caution! Over the years you will see a
lot of the person from whom you buy pro
tection and you want to be right the first
time. Here's a suggestion.
Look for experience and dependability in
your agent. Be sure he is willing to work hard
for your business, burn up some shoe leather
and not dodge a night call.
You II be happier if the man you choose is
a local, independent agent who handles all
types of risks, not just a few of the more
popular lines. We know that we can satisfy
your requirements. Call us.

FARM
NOTESlSiurs
CROP SITUATION
Old man weather has hit farm
ers a blow again. What appeared
to be excellent crop prospects two
weeks ago has deteriorated to poor
prospects at this time. Cotton and
late corn have suffered the most.
The top crop of cotton that farm
ers were depending on to make
their profit just won’t make it.
Two weeks of almost scalding
weather plus drying winds has
caused heavy shedding of young
bolls and squares from the crop.
If dry weather continues, too
early opening of bolls will result
in lowered yields and staple
length.
Fortunately a lot of our county’s
corn crop has been made into si
lage for livestock feed. But there
will be slim picking on the late
planted corn crop.
Soybeans, pastures and hay
crops are hard hit by hot weather
and lack of rain. Looks like we
just can’t get rolling in this soy
bean production business due to
dry weather about this time every
year.
Yes sir, a farmer’s business is
very greatly dependent upon the
weather. Right now it’s not so fa
vorable.
SWIFT STRIKE III DAMAGE
The army maneuvers in our
area have come to a close. Due
to numerous reports that have
reached our office of damage to
crops, livestock; etc. we have con
tacted thie claims office in Clin
ton concerning this matter. In
every case, the Claims Office peo
ple have assured us that fair set
tlement will be made for damage
caused by Swift Strike III Opera
tions including loss of egg produc
tion and milk production that can
be directly attributed to the man
euvers activity. They have sug
gested that claims for damage be
submitted after the maneuvers
have ended. You may report dam
age by either mailing in the claim
card or by writing a brief letter
to the Claim Office The adress is
Swift Strike III, Claims Office,
Room 203, Jacobs Building, 103
East Carolina Avenue, Clinton, S.
C. Be sure to give either your
telephone number of directions for
reaching your farm. In case claims
are submitted for loss of egg or
milk production, records will be
needed to show proof of such loss.
ALFALFA PRODUCTION
We’re delighted to see renewed
interest in alfalfa production in
Newberry County. A number of
dairy farmers are planning to seed
some acreage to this “Queen of
Forage Crops”, this fall.
Seed will be expensive so do
the job right of getting ready for
alfalfa. First, lime the soil to a
Ph of 7.0. It will probably take 2
tons of lime per acre if you have
not limed for several years. If you
suspect a hard pan under your
land, subsoiling would be in order.
Remember alfalfa roots must pen
etrate deeply if the crop is to sur
vive weeds, insects and dry weath
er later on.
Unless soil test shows a high
phosphate reserve, the land for
alfalfa should have approximately
1,000 pounds of super phosphate
per acre in addition to the lime
and complete fertilizer. About 700
pounds of complete fertilizer such
as 4-12-12 will be needed. Plow
the lime during land preparation.
Apply and mix phosphate and fer
tilizer into the topsoil during fi
nal seedbed preparation.
Let the seedbed be firmed by a
good rain then seed 35 to 50
pounds of seed per acre. Don’t
cover seed too deeply. A cultipack-
er should be used in seeding al
falfa. Seed between September 15
and October 15. Be sure to inocu
late seed. Finally apply 40 pounds
of 2 1-2 percent Granular Hep-
tochlor prior to November 15 for
control of alfalfa weevil next
spring. Heptachlor should be ap
plied after the planted seedbed
has been firmed by rain.
Yes, alfalfa is an expensive
crop to put in. But if done right
and a good stand obtained, it can
with proper management, provide
excellent forage for a number of
years.
FEEDER CATTLE SALE
Beef cattle growers are urged
to support the graded feeder cat
tle to be held in Greenwood on
September 19. This sale has con
sistently brought our producers
top prices for their weaning age
cattle. Through this sale, farmers
who have only a few cattle can
sale on grade and weight the same
as our large producers.
All cattle to be sold must be de
horned and completely healed
prior to sale time. Also all cattle
must be vaccinated not more than
90 days and not less than 14 days
before sale. Heifers must be guar
anteed open.
Newberry farmers who wish to
consign cattle to this sale are urg
ed to contact us so we can inspect
the cattle for you.
Let’s keep the beef cattle busi
ness growing in Newberry County.
Also let’s support the things that
make for successful marketing.
The graded feeder sale has proven
itself in this respect.

A message
to the People of
South Carolina
South Carolina Rural Electric Co operatives have requested the South Carolina Tax
Study Commission to make a study of what taxes electric co-ops should pay.
Duke Power believes co-ops should pay taxes on the same basis as the electric utility
companies do. To prove this, Duke has offered to purchase and operate the facilities of the
electric co-operatives in the Duke area and pay full local, state, and federal taxes on these
properties and operations. Similar purchase offers have been made to the other South Carolina
co-operatives by either South Carolina Electric & Gas Co. or Carolina Power & Light Co.
Duke's offer to purchase has been made to:
Laurens Electric Co-operative, Inc.
Broad River Electric Co-operative, Inc.
Newberry Electric Co-operative, Inc.
Little River Electric Co-operative, Inc.
Blue Ridge Electric Co-operative, Inc.
York Electric Co-operative, Inc.
WHAT DUKE’S OFFER WILL MEAN
To the Public at Large ...
1. Payment of full local, state and federal taxes on co-op property and operations.
(Co-ops now pay no property, income, generating or franchise taxes.)
2. Repayment in full of all the co-ops’ 2% REA loans from the Federal government
(These below-cost loans are now a burden on all taxpayers.)
To the Co-op Member...
1. A reduction in electric rates to more than 80% of the co-op customers, with no
co-op customer receiving an increase in his rates.
2. A cash payment to each co-op customer of his accumulated capital credits.
3. Increased services and dependability resulting from becoming part of a much
larger electrical system.
To Every Co-op Employee...
1. Employment by Duke of every co-op employee, including the Manager, with credit
£ toward retirement for all years of service with the co-op.
2. Increased benefits, including medical and life insurance, stock purchase program,
and retirement.
