Many acres of idle land could well be used to grow pastures for beef cattle. A well-planned pas ture program is a must for a pro- fitable beef cattle operation. Se lect those pasture plants that will Students of our free en terprise system decided some years ago that textbooks used do best for you.

But let’s start from the a committee to evaluate: beginning, a soil test should b „ , . „ i taken first to determine whether textbooks which form the basis of the education ot our youth.. lime is nee ded and if so, how The findings of this committee were somewhat alarming; much. Secondly, a soil test will and it would seem to be the duty of parents of school child- help in making a fertilizer recom- ren to look at some of the texts being used and perhaps do g ram usually takes about two something about changing them, if they are found to weeks to get the results back on biase'd in the direction of extreme liberalism, as many of them are described by the committee. .y Tnis is not censorship, any more than it is censorship to know what our children are reading or watching on televis ion outside the classroom. When texbooks studied by im pressionable youngsters tell them: “The Constitution is a flexible document. In 1787 we had a very undemocratic Con stitution, but now it has evolved into a strong, vibrant, dem ocratic document,” perhaps the entire book should be care fully studied by parents and if found to be downgrading pat riotism and our Constitution, there is a duty to object to its use. Indirect criticism of our form of government is often found in current texts. One of them states: “America must more extensively engage in social planning but we cannot because of separation of powers.” Another says: “I have no hesita tion in stating my deep conviction that the legislatures of America (local, state and national) are presently the great est menace to the successful operation of the democratic process.” Business is often referred to in these texts as aplutoc- racy” and in very recently published books, the authors tell us that our standard of living is rising, but it leaves the im pression that this is due to the fact that the government has taken the lead in giving us this higher standing. No mention is made of the higher production. One hopeful sign, probably due to newspaper headlines over the past year or so, is that the textbook writers now believe that courts have a duty to protect people from crim inals rather than devoting their entire efforts to protecting the criminals, especially juvenile criminals. Until recently, these writers attributed all of the delinquency and crime to society. Perhaps this is the most important hopeful sign, be cause unless we revive the sense of individual and personal responsibility for all of these criminal transgressions, then the United States is really in for trouble. THE COLLEGE SAYS ‘NO’ (From The Charleston News & Courier) Some misunderstanding has arisen over refusal by the trustees of the College of Charleston to sign a compliance clause issued by the Health, Education and Welfare Dept, of the U. S. Government. As a consequence, the government no longer will loan money to students of the college. For the record, it should be noted that the trustees have not refused to comply with the Civil Rights Act of 1964. That is a law, enacted by Congress and signed by the Presi dent, which must be obeyed by all. Wliat the trustees have done is to refuse to sign an agreement with a department of government that in effect would allow the government to force certain changes of policy. Even worse, this agreement also would bind the truseees and the college, and all future trustees, to rules, regulations and guidelines that the gov- ernhent agency might adopt in the future. In other words, the trustees would issue a blank check to somebody else. They would be yielding basic rights and they might as welT cease to exist as trustees. While the 1964 act specifies that the government shall not interfere with policies, personnel and operations of in stitutions borrowing money under provisions of the Act, the various federal agencies may set up their own regulations. Some of these seem to negate the intent of the law they pur port to administer. It is one of the regulatory clauses that the college trustees have refused to sign. Th clause stipu lates agreement with any regulations set up in the future and bin^s “heirs, assignees and successors” of the trustees to similar agreement. In refusing to buy a pig in a poke, the trustees have ex ercised heir judgment of what is best for the college in the future. The trustees actually own the college. They carry on a tradition set by the founders, two of whom were signers of the Declaration of Independence and all of whom performed valiantly in the American Revolution. The refusal of the trustees to accept U. S. money with strings attached is opposite to the policy of many other in stitutions. It remains to be seen which is the wiser policy. Some state officials also seem to disagree with the college trustees. Speaking recently bfore a group of public school trustees Atty. General Daniel R. McLeod said it was safe to accept federal loans. He called them “the cheapest money available.” Whether this money actually proves cheap in the long run depends on the extent to which the government and its agencies usurp control and apply unacceptable rules. A case in point is the Medical College of South Carolina. (Continued on next page) a soil test. Fescue is a perennial grass or one that does not have to be planted each year. The recommen ded planting date is from Sepetm- ber 1 to November 1 and a seeding rate of about 20 to 2’ pounds per acre. Fescue does best when the Pb of the soil is 5.5 and 6.5 and fer tilized at the rate of 500 to 800 pounds of 4-12-12 at seeding time. Ladino Clover is the legume partner of a good Fescue pasture. Seeded at the same time—Sep tember 1 to November 1—at the rate of about 2 pounds per acre. This pasture should not be grazed the first year after planting. This pasture will usually furnish graz ing for three-fourths of the year. During the months of June, July and August the cattle should be taken off and the pasture ferti lized in late August or early Sep tember with 800 to 1000 pounds of 4-12-12 and 50 pounds Nitro gen in October and another 50 pounds of Nitrogen in February or March to give the maximum amount of grazing. Green Forages For Hogs Brood sows and pigs need green forage crops. Benefits derived from green forages by the brood sow and little make such crops necessary for an economical swine program. A planned rotation sys tem of green forage crops is de sirable to provide grazing thru the year. Plant one-half acre of forage for each brood sow and litter (used 1 out of every 3 years for sows and nursing pigs.) Allow for 1 acre- of forage to furnish grazing for five sows alone. Lo- ’cate permanent pasture (Ladino clover) so that animals can be easily moved for rotational graz ing on annual forages when need ed. Relocate the permanent pas ture at the end of 3 years to pre vent a buildup of parasites. Plant annual grazing crops to furnish grazing during periods when the permanent pasture is short on growth.' December, January and February are usually the winter months when grazing is short and July and August during the sum mer. There are a >number of advan tages of Forage crops for hogs: provide low-cost protein, vitamins and minerals; improves milk flow of nursing sows; reduces nutri tional problems with sows and scouring with pigs; lessens man agement and labor problems; cuts down on parasite and disease oc- curance by avoiding infested soil; and reduces building costs for most operations.
