HOW CAN IT
PROTECT YOU
IF IT DOESN’T FIT?
Same goes for the insurance you bought
several years ago. An increase in your
family, rising construction costs, increased
awards in auto accidents make policies that
were suitable at one time, obsolete today.
As a local, independent insurance agent our
business is to help you with the right cover
age. No obligation in a call.

Census shows
1018 Farms
A total of 1018 farms was
counted in Newberry county
during the 1964 Census of Ag
riculture, the U. S. Department
of Commerce’s Bureau of the
Census reports.
In the last previous census
of Agriculture (1959), the total
counted in the county was 1400.
The 1964 total is published
in a preliminary report on the
county just issued. The report
also shows that average farm
size in the county was 178.6
acres and that the average val
ue of the county’s farms (land
and buildings) in 1964 was
$22,212.
Other important county sta
tistics in the report are:
1. Value of all farm pro
ducts sold by farms in the
county in 1964, $7,350,282; in
1959, $5,403,281.
2. Value of all crops sold
by county farms in 1964, $1,-
331,559; in 1959, $1,227,394.

first time in an agricultural
census included the amount re
ceived by the county’s farmers,
from recreational services as
well as data on the use of pest
control chemicals in the county
in 1964.
A census of Agriculture is
taken every five years in years
ending in “4” and “9” to gath
er information on the nation’s
agricultural resources and pro
duction. The data are needed to
make decisions affecting many
segments of the U. S. economy.
The 1964 farm census was the

MRS. EPPS IN
COLUMBIA HOSPITAL
Mrs. George L. Epps Sr. was
admitted to the Columbia hos
pital about two weeks ago af
ter suffering a heart attack.
She was a patient in the local
hospital about four days prior
to being transferred to Colum
bia. She has celebrated her 82nd
birthday since being in the hos
pital.
Drivers told
to look ahead
Drivers who fail to react im
mediately to traffic slowing or
stopping in front of them are
ignoring an obvious sign of
danger.
One of the leading types of
traffic accidents in South Caro
lina is the rear-end collision,
accounting for 12,054 accidents
in 1965 or approximately 33
per day.
Over 13 per cent of the 26,-
479 driver errors involved in
South Carolina traffic accidents
in 1965 were following too
closely.
Protection against rear-end
collisions is two *old, according
to Highway de* .tment safety
officials:
1. Recognize the possibility
that a sudden stop may be nec
essary at all times so that you
will be mentally prepared to
stop when it becomes necessary.
2. Keep an eye on the ve
hicle just ahead for clues to
stops. Watch not only for the
flash of brake lights, but for
such things as side-road traffic,
lane-changers, traffic signs or
signals and the myriad other
things that may require a stop
or slow down.
By keeping alert, you will
have time to pump your brakes
and flash your stop lights as
an early warning to the drivers
behind you. Practicing this
higher degree of alertness may
keep you from being the “meat
in a sandwich collision” some
day.
