tions of 1930 have affected nearly
every farmer in the southern re-
gion, and should cause all of us
to appreciate the insurance fea-
ture of the agricultural conserva-
tion program. At this time you
will be interested in calling atten.
tion of your neighboring farmers
to both the short- and long-time
insurance features of their farm
program.
“Each producer who meets the
requirements of the agricultural
conservation program is sure of
receiving some cash income even
though his crops may he destroy-
ed by drought or other cause. No
program can prevent suffering and
hardship if a farmer’s labor and
cash investment in crops are com-
pletely lost because of unfavor-
able weather conditions. But the
present program will partly re-*
lieve the distress of cooperating
producers by making a cash pay-
ment to those who have used ap-
proved farming practices on their
land. This cash payment insur-
ance feature of the agricultural
conservation program existed also
in the programs of 1933, 1934, and

Preparing Soil for Garden
1 “Fall gardening is a waste of
time and effort unless the soil is
thoroughly prepared,” J. F. Ros-
1 borough, extension horticulturist,
said recently, In a letter to Coun-
। ty Agent V. L. Sandlin.
According to Mr. Rosborough,
most gardeners go wrong in turn-
ing under a growth of weeds and
dried up spring vegetables. Cut-
ting the weeds and throwing them
over the fence before plowing is
the first step toward a successful
garden. Turned under weeds heat
andBiry out the soil above and
prevent thorough cultivation.
"In most barn lots at this time
of the year there is a layer of
tramped manure that has dried
out, losing the acids that burn
plants. After the garden has been
plowed, spread a coating of one
to three inches thick of this ‘sum-
mer manure’ over the surface
then rebreak the ground er disc
and harrow it until it is well mix-
ed into the soil. This ‘spongy’
material will greatly increase the
water-holding capacity of the soil
and prevent it from packing. When
fall rains come, the garden soil
handled in this way will be ready
for planting," he added.
“It is often hard to get the fall
crop of potatoes to come up even
when there is enough moisture.
Potatoes from the spring crop
should have "at least six weeks of
‘rest’ between harvest and plant-
ing time' before they can be ex-
pected to sprout. To encourage
sprouting, there are two methods
of treating seed potatoes that may
be used. One is to cover the po-
tatoes with damp straw, after
placing in a shady location, and
when sprouting begins, plant. The
other is to treat seed potatoes
with a solution of. one pint of
ethylene chlorhydrin to four ’gal-
lons of water. This quantity of
solution will treat five bushels of
potatoes.
“In treating the potatoes with
this chemical, cut the seed in the
usual way about eight hours be-
fore planting. Even where small
potatoes are being used, cut them
on one side. Dip the seed pieces
in the solution and then place in-
.to a barrel or tight box and cover
•for eight hours. Remove from
barrel and plant immediately.”
TAIL LIGHTS FOR MULES
. Mules must have tail lights if
they are to walk the highways
after dark in North Carolina.
George Hausley discovered. He
was fined $4.45 at Edenton be-
cause his mule, which was being
led back of his car, had no tail
light.

C. A. Cobb, director Southern
Division, AAA, U. S. Department
of Agriculture, has sent County
Agent V. L. Sandlin a copy of a
letter which is being mailed all
agricultural conservation commit-
teemen. The letter is printed be-
low for the benefit of all Inter-
ested farmers of Wharton county:
“Dear Committeeman:

sale of their 1934 cotton crop was
only $21,650,000. The producers
who cooperated in the 1934 pro-
gram received payments amount-
ing to $8,350,000, an amount that
exceeded one-third of the total
cash income from the entire cot-
ton crop in the state. The non-
cooperating producers, undoubted-
ly were affected by drought, and
had they participated they, too,
might have been protected to some
Stent by this insurance feature
of the program.
How the Program Works
“The agricultural conservation
program serves as insurance in
the following ways:
“1. All producers who partici-
pate will receive some cash in-
come, regardless of what may hap-
pen to their planted crops. For
those producers who cooperate to
the fullest extent and whose crops
are severely injured by drought, or
other disaster, this cash income
may easily, exceed all other farm
cash income.
“2. Cooperating producers as-
sume less risk .if they divert a
part of their soil-depleting crop
acreage to soil-conserving crops
because the soil-conserving crops
in the main serve to provide
needed feeds and foods and be-
cause cash outlay may be re-
duced.
“3. The program, by tending
to adjust the supply to demand,
insures a better price for that
which is produced.
“4. The soil-conserving crops
grown on land that would other-
wise be planted to soil-depleting
crops, protect the cooperating
producer against losses of plant
food and soil caused by leaching
and erosion. In the long run, such
a change in crops grown will mean
higher and more economical yields
than could otherwise be expected.
“5. Improved soil means better
stands, fewer crop failures, lower
produetion costs to producers nd,
over a long period, a more stable
and less expensive supply of
foods, feeds, and fibers for con-
sumers than would be available if
soils should continue .to be wasted
