AT HOME
Oil THE FARM
WITH
TII3 CTTY COUSIN
Travelin' over in Columbus Coun
ty last week, Charley Raper, county
agent, and myself pulled up dur
ing a rainy spell to visit Jack Wal
ters - one of these all-round farm
ers, you hear about. &?:
, Before we got there I was telling
Raper that since it was cold and
rainy we'd most likely find the
farmer sittin' around home:
"No," - says Charley, -"you're
wrong there,. Cousin. Jack's like a
lot of us - he gets fidgety when he'd
confined too close." ' ;
' Sure enough, we found him put
tering around cleaning things up
in general. V -
"Makln' room-to put the tools
and machinery under shelter," ha
believe in depending, on tobacco
alone. He's a good tobacco grow
er, all right, but you can see Jack
wouldn't be contented without bis
milk and hogs. ---
"Lots of farmers are tough,' - I
says. - i - .

The SCA has not experienced as
great an upsweep in the number of
claims filed as some people had
predicted for the period when the
high employment of the war years
began to drop off. However, there
are many people who would be
drawing old-age and survivors In
surance payments if they realized
they were eligible. , . , ?
Monthly payments are made to
the wage earner when he becomes
65 years old, his 65 year old wife,
