Well, it’s almost 1965. It’s time to sharpen up “ye ole pen cil” and finish up your 1964 farm records and get started on 1965’s records. Good farm records can help you make more money. They help the farmers find out which farm enterprises are most profit able, where he stands financially and how he can manage his farm more efficiently. Good records can also lead to income tax savings and maximum security coverage. A South Carolina farm account record book is available from the Newberry County Agent’s office. They’re free so contact us for a copy. Dalr> men Attention! Don’t forget the Dairy Manage ment Clinic beginning Monday, January 4th. They’re scheduled for January 4, 11, 18, 25 and Feb ruary 1. Each session is slated for 7:30-9:30 P.M. at the American Legion hut, in Newberry. The first meeting will feature Dr. Wayne 0‘Dell, Leader, Dairy Ex tension Work discussion of “Plan ning Feed Program on Dairy Farms.” This will be one of those work sessions where you’ll get some real practical help. Plan now to attend. POULTRYMEN need to watch houses for wet litter. Many houses are closed up too tightly to let the moisture escape. Re member each hen gives off a pint of water per day and this can cause real trouble in a tightly closed house in the winter. Then poor water cleaning practices also contribute to moisture problems. The water from waterers should be disposed of outside the poultry house when cleaning. Better check on automatic waterers often. When one overflows it takes a long time to dry the shaving out around it. It’s just impossible to produce clean eggs unless you have dry litter in 2 T our poultry house. Disease problems are great er in a poorly dried house, too. New Poultry Record Available Guess you think we can’t talk about anything except records, but they're so important we would like to tell you about just one more. It’s the Annual Flock Pro duction Record. It is a rather large (10”xl7”) book that is de signed to oe kept in the poultry house or the egg room. There is space for jotting down egg gath erings up to 4 times per day and, then a space for a total for the week. Feed and losses (dead or cull birds) are recorded by the week, too. The week is the unit for this record instead of by the month as many of the old records had. The most important feature of this new record is large graph or chart where each week’s pro duction is recorded. There is room for up to 60 weeks of pro duction which should take care of most flock’s entire period of lay. The poultryman or his serviceman can tell at a glance just what the entire production history of the flock has been. There is plenty of room to Record expenses and re ceipts, too, although there is not special place designated for them. If you have a new flock of birds or one that has been laying for just few months give Tom Bryson a call. He’ll give you as sistance in getting started on the new record. It was developed by TOM STEWART, Extension Poul tryman of Clemson University. Closing Thought As we close out the year 1964, let’s remember that many of the things we think of as problems may well be considered blessings by others. Last week JEE WON LEE a visitor in the Newberry area from Korea told how his country would like to produce more food and was amazed at the production efficiency of our farmers. We need to remember it is better to have a surplus of food than a scarcity. Happy New Year! County native's V husband dies Dewey T. Steele, 65, of Cayce, ,died Friday at his home.
