A total of three meet ings will be held from 10:00 A.M. until 12 noon on the dates of February 28, March 6 and March 13. Each meeting will be held in the auditorium of the Newberry County Agri culture building. Our Clemson Dairy Special ist will present these programs on proper feeding of Dairy cat tle. They are all mighty im portant. Successful Dairy farmers have found that there is no substitute for proper feeding. But production figures indicate there is room for improvement on most of our Dairy farms. You can still enroll in this dairy feeding short course. Let us know if you plan to attend. What Kind of Fertilizer To Use Already farmers are making plans as spring each day draws nearer. So again we re peat our slogan for more pro fit in 1968—“Aim for Maxi mum Crop Profits With More Fertilizer and Lime.” Money spent on fertilizer is usually the best investment a farmer can make. This year there are so many fertilizer materials on the market, it’s a big decision to make not only of how much, but also what kind. In the dry forms of fertilizer, there are mainly two kinds, mixed and blended. In the liquid form there is the “clear liquid” fer tilizer and this year for the first time there is liquid sus pension or slurry form of liq uid fertilizer. Time and space does not here permit a complete discus sion of each kind. About the safest rule to follow is still— “Buy the fertilizer that gives you the most pounds of plant food for your fertilizer dollar.” Two new fertilizer bulletins now available will help clarify proper fertilizer use. Clemson’s 1968 Fertilizer Recommenda tions, and a new leaflet on “Fluid Fertilizers” are now on hand at our office. Be sure to balance fertilizer use with enough lime for best returns on all your crops and pastures this year. Some Ways For Attracting And Holding Farm Labor Here are some ways suggest ed by Clemson’s Farm Man agement Specialists for getting and keeping farm labor: 1. Pay competitive wages for qualified labor that will earn its payment. Fringe ben efits such as good housing will be required to get and keep high-calibre workers. 2. Consider incentive pay ments for high-quality produc tion. 3. Cultivate good labor re lations which mean such things as: mutual respect, trust and loyalty, clear agreements, pref erably written and revised from time to time, upgrade employ ee’s image—he is not a hired hand or hired man, he is at least an employee, a herdsman, a technician or partner, change of attitude of long hours, low pay, drudgery job to that of an important position. 4. Substitute capital for labor. Mechanize and automate where practical. Don’t over invest in high-priced machin ery and equipment. 5. Training program—Con duct on-the-job training. The need is for skilled, trained workers—not necessarily col- three sisters, Mrs. William Blair of Blair, Mrs. L. D. Cole man of Newberry and Mrs. J. S. Suber of Pomaria. lege graduates—to do the maintenance work on high- priced machines and equipment. 6. Hire part-time workers. Child Labor Laws The employment of children is regulated under the Fair La bor Standards Act. Under the child-labor provisions (1) NO CHILD below the age of 16 may work in agriculture during school hours, (2) NO CHILD below the age of 16 MAY BE EMPLOYED at any time in any of the 16 hazardous occu pations in agriculture listed under the Child-Labor Regula tions. (A list of these occupa tions may be obtained upon request.) The hazardous orders do not apply to the employment of a child under 16 years of age by his parent or by a per son standing in the place of his parent on a farm OWNED OR OPERATED by such par ent or person. Care of Home Grounds Those interested in Land scaping and Care of Home Grounds should be interested in the shortcourse to be held at Newberry College beginn ing February 27. A total of six evening meetings, one each week will be held. If you are at all interested in this subject, we believe you should look over a copy of the program. This course is being sponsor ed by the Newberry College Faculty Women’s Club. We suggest you contact Mrs. Jas. F. Cummings who helped plan this short course or call our office for a copy of the pro gram.
