Native grasses should be
planted before too many weeks
have passed. These seeds will
not germinate until the temper-
ature of the soil is correct. How-
ever, almost all of the seeds
need to be in the ground well
in advance of good rains and
proper temperatures.
You should be purchasing
your needed grass seeds before
the limited supply is exhausted.
Switch grass seed is plenti-
ful at this time, however, Buf-
falo, Blue Grama and the Blue
stems are in very small supply.
If you plan to use any of the
native grasses this spring you
should contact your seed dealer
and have your seeds on hand.
Even though the wind has
not been very strong the past
few days, there is evidence of
soil movement on many acres
of cotton land. Emergency til-
lage is about all that can aid
because of the lack of top mois-
ture. Chiseling so as to leave
what stalks that remain still
standing will do a lot of good.
H. H. Clary, who farms near
Dunlap, has started to plant
switch grass on land that was
drilled to a dead litter cover
last summer, he is planting two
pounds of switch grass to the
acre.
New terraces are being con-
structed for Jack Tippen, F. B.
Martin, Bob Bell, R. C. Woodley.
J. J. Gibson Jr., and Mrs. Amidell
Buckley.
| Many miles of terraces still
need to have the fills made to
hold the rains if and when they
'do come.
