THURSDAY, JANUARY 6, 1966 THE NEWBERRY SUN. NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA PAGE THREE Hu shots are mended recoi PATIENTS IN THE HOSPITAL The South Carolina Heart Association recommends that Palmetto State residents check •with their physicians, if they have not already done so, on the advisability of taking vac cinations against influenza. This year, according to the nation’s medical forecasters, a new outbreak of ’flu may be expected. The disease seems to have a two-to-three year cycle and the last major outbreaks in the U. S. generally were in 1962-63 and, pn the West Coast, in 1963-1964. In South Carolina, 303 people died of ’flu in 1963. Asiatic ’flu wave, but the mor tality rate dropped to 40 in 1964, according to the State Board of Health’s Bureau of Vital Statistics. The Heart Association point ed out that persons with heart or circulatory problems are likely to be more seriously af fected than others if they con tract flu. Immunization with flu vac cine has been recommended by public health authorities for a number of groups classified as high-risk. They include the following: Persons of all ages suffering from chronic diseases, such as rheumatic heart disease, other heart and circulatory problems, respiratory ailments such as asthma and emphysema, and diabetes. Persons in older age brack ets. Influenza deaths are dis proportionately high among those past 45, and much higher in the over 65 bracket. Pregnant women. Patients in nursing homes and chronic disease hospitals. The Heart Association said the vaccine developed for this aeason offers protection ag ainst five different types of virus, all of which are capable of producing influenza. While it will not insure com plete immunity, vaccination has in past years produced a mark ed degree of protection for most of those receiving it. The vaccine is given in two doses; the first in the fall, the second about two months later. However, the interval can be reduced should an epidemic threaten. Those vaccinated within the past two years need only one booster dose this fall. Some persons have specific allergies to the vaccine and should consult with their phy sicians, but for most, it offers protection and peace of mind during the coming months. Service Friday for D. M.

BLACK, Auditor Newberry County County Agent looks to 1966; is optimistic By COUNTY AGENTS WHAT IT WILL PAY MR. FARMER TO DO IN 1966 1965 turned out to be a pret ty good crop and livestock year for most farmers. So much for the old year. Let’s look to the new year 1966. All indications point to good markets for most farm products in the year ahead. It will be a good year for those fanners who follow good management practices and apply all the scientific know-how available to their farm operation. Keep these pointers in mind when making farm plans for the new year: Follow good business man agement practices through the keeping and use of accurate farm record's and sound farm planning. Make best use possible of all farm resources including land, labor, capital, and managerial ability. Follow recommended produc tion practices and produce the kinds and quality of farm prod ucts in demand, and always market on an orderly basis. Have soil tests made and fer tilize according to recommen dations. Use all farm labor efficient ly by carefully planning work ahead and by using needed la bor - saving equipment and methods. Keep machinery and equip ment owned in good repair and avoid over investment in ex pensive equipment that will not pay for itself. Cut costs of production where practical but do not do so by skimping on use of fertilizers, pesticides, feeds and other im portant items of farm produc tion needed to increase efficien cy and farm profits. Follow good financial man agement practices through wise investment and proper use of credit. Obtain credit from a rep utable financial institution, use it for purpose borrowed, and have repayments scheduled when income is expected. Produce as much of the fam ily food supply as is practical. Study the opportunities un der the Government farm pro grams to increase income on your particular farm. Work closely with farm or ganizations and other organiz ed groups interested in im proving the level of living on farms and in maintaining a fa vorable public image for agri culture. GOOD GURNSEYS AT MYRTLEDALE FARM DHIA records show that the Guersey heard at Myrtledale Farm, under the management of owner Marvin Hamm and Sons, Perry and Bennett, con tinue to improve in milk pro duction. One of the Myrtledale Guernsey cows, “Alma”, owned by 4-H’er Susan Hamm, spent a week at the local county fair, then on to State Fair for an other week and never slacked up. “Alma” recently completed her 305 day milking period with a total production of 13,470 pounds of milk and 683 pounds of butterfat. Another registered Guernsey in the herd, “Faith”, milked al most fifty pounds of milk per day for the first three months of her first calf lactation. Both these high-producing Guernseys are the result of ar tificial breeding, as are most of the Guernseys at Myrtle dale Farms. GET READY FOR INCOME TAX TIME Income tax time for farmers will soon be here. To help with your tax returns you’ll find the 1966 Farmers’ Tax Guide a use ful reference. Dalton Patterson, director of the South Carolina Farm Bureau Electronic Farm Record Program, says this guide is so complete it was used to set up the electronic computer for calculating in come tax provisions into their record program. Certainly, this is adequate proof it can be a valuable asset in making out your tax return. A free copy is available at your County Agents’ Office. Get one for yourself or make sure the person making out your return for you has one. IMPORTANT NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION Just as it nowadays is im possible to farm without a tractor, it becomes increasingly necessary to keep adequate farm records to be successful. Today’s farmer just like any other businessman must be able to figure the best possible re turn for each invested resource in his business. Without doubt, the new elec tronic farm record program of fers the best means of keeping adequate farm records. It costs to enroll. But this cost can be returned many times over in Mrs. Mason, 92, dies Monday CLINTON—Mrs. Mary Pel- fry Mason, 92, died in a Col umbia hospital Monday after several years of declining health.

A small boy re portedly came home on Hallo ween night with a bag full of pansies and told his mother he had been playing Trick or Treat in front of the State Depart ment. Michael Goleniewaki, former KGB intelligence agent, testi fied that 6 diplomats and ten Marine guards assigned to the U. S. Embassy in Warsaw dur ing 1958 and 1959 were com promised — by young women Communist agents. The Com munists reportedly took em barrassing photographs of these sexacts for blackmail pur poses. The State Department admitted their guilt and trans ferred five of the six to other State Department posts. “Call girls,” formerly called whores, are regularly used by the State Department. A “call girl” or “bedroom politician” ring re portedly operates continuously within the atheistic, amoral United Nations. Bobby Baker bragged that he had ten members of the Senate in the palm of his hand (compromised). He knew every intimate detail of the Senate, savings and in information needed to make management decisions. It’s almost impossible to explain the many advantages of this new, modem farm rec ord program. It’s sorta’ like marriage, you’ve got to try it awhile to understand haw it its people, their weaknesses, who was sleeping with whom, who was out drunk, who could be bribed and for what price. So does Moscow. The only sec rets the American government has in the cold war against his tory’s most diabolical, criminal, atheistic conspiracy are the secrets our government keeps from the American people. Some people will resent see ing things like this in a family magazine; but we must face it, because morality demands it and survival reqquqiqqrqeqsqqq and survival requires it. As the Apostle Paul asked the Gala tians, “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?” It’s gotten so it’s hard to tell men from women unless they’re skinnydipping, as Beatle hair cuts and leotards . make the scene. Recently an elderly gen tleman whispered to the person ahead of him in the supermar ket line: “Look at that charac ter up there in the poodle cut and jeans. Is it a boy or girl?” “It’s a girl,” came the reply, ”1 ought to know; she’s my daughter.” “Forgive me, sir!” apologized the elderly gentleman, “I never dreamed you were her father.” “I’m not! I’m her mother!” Dueteronomy 22:5 (King James Version) is also for be ing able to tell the difference: “The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do are abomination unto the Lord thy God.” The sickness in the soul of America has been planted there. As Will Rogers said: “What this country needs is more clean minds and dirty fingernails.” The “Liberals” say we should read between the lines of our Constitution, our Bible, our marriage vows; that there are no absolutes; no right and wrong: whatever is socially ac ceptable is all right; sin is old- fashioned, non-existent, imag inary. I heard about a certain “mod ernist” church which had on its bulletin board out front: “There ain’t no hell!” A fun damentalist church across the street responded on its board: “The hell there ain’t!” The Pledge of Allegiance says: “I pledge allegiance to tht flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands; one na tion, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” The “Liberals” are now working toward removing the words “under God.” If “under God” does not belong there, then neither does “indivisible.” Religion and patriotism have been omitted from most school curriculums. College classrooms are now seedbeds for sowing agnosticism, atheism, collectiv ism, nihilism (belief in noth ing). Even many preachers are promoting free love and Com munism A group of preachers and church leaders in California re cently threw a stag dance for homosexuals. Some stags dressed as “does” so the lim- ber-wristed “dears” would feel at ease. If your preacher preaches such a “new moral code.” what you need is not new values but a new preacher. The “Modernists” and collect ivists claim Christianity has failed. It hasn’t been tried. The leaders can’t cleanse the country; the leaders themselves are unclean. Who is going to investigate the investigators? We, the people. That is the only way our country can be saved from the godless criminal con spiracy called Communism. For our leaders who lack mor ality lack courage. Courage morality are blood brothers. People who have religion have courage and morality. People who have religion, live religion. Man yof the hy pocrites who never miss church on Sunday are “going along” with the criminal take-over of our country by socialists, Com munists, atheists, degenerates, and slobs. These are business men who worship the church on Sunday and the dollar the other six days—people who won’t lis ten to the truth, since “it is impossible to KNOW the truth and not be held responsible”; people who ask “What can I do?” and are afraid you’ll tell them; people who say we’re already lost and who lack the integrity and the courage to identify with what appears to be the losing side. These peo ple come in all economic, edu cational, religious and racial circles. I don’t hate them. I don’t hate roaches, but I’ve never seen an attractive one. What can YOU do? “Pray as if it were all up to God and work as if it were all up to you.” Planning A Hunting Trip? Then be sure to include a little low-cost liabil ity insurance in your plans. Accidents happen and a claim for damages due to a gun injury could be expensive. Stop in or give us a call. There is no obliga tion.
