"Grasses and legumes chock
costly soil losses and help pro- J"
vide cheap feed for livestock"
Texas farmers have learned that
soil losses on minor slopes can
be prevented by cover crops or
'by recerting the crop land on such
slopes to pastures. ?•;
Legumes take nitrogen from the.
air and make it available in the
soil for subsequent crops. Legumes
are high in protein and minerals;
when livestock have access tp le-
gumes. a saving in grain and pro-
tein supplement necessary to bal-
ance the ration is usually realized
Many of the clovers have an ex-
cellent physical effect-on the soil
in that their roots penetrate to
unuual depths and loosen up the
subsoil. One of the direct benefits
of this action is that the soil can
absorb and store more moisture.
The farmers oFTexas are using
more legumes. The. 1930 census fi-
gures shpw * that 394,555 acres
were devoted to legumes in 1929;
while the 1935 census figures list
773,7§3 acres of legumes iri~ 1934.
The past year saw Texas farmers,
in compliance with the Agricul-
tural Conservation program, plant
1,776,868 acres to legumes.
Pastures which contain a com-
bination of legumes and "grasses
provide a longer period of grazing
and a more balanced ration for
livestock;""tend to check erosions
and soil losses; and build up tfie
soil by adding humus and nitrogen
'"The Agricultural Conservation
Program contains provisions for
carrying part of the financial bur-
den of conservation practices, and
offers aid to farmers in the task
of improving; and maintaining soil
fertility.
The-Y. W. A. of the First Bap-
tist Church with their cOuncelor,
Mrs. J. L. Adams, sponsored an
annual Mother and Daughter ban-
quet in the church basement on
Thursday evening. 60 mothers and
daughters were present.
A color scheme of pink and
green was carried oirtr in the ban-
"%#et'*hall. The tables were laid in
pink arid lighted with green can-
dles in silver holders. Pink roses
centered the tables with cQrsages
of sweet peas as plate favors.
Three courses Were served.
Mrs R. S .M. Carter, chairman
of the young peoples' work, acted
as toastmistress. Mrs. E. W. Suggs LONDON, Texas, April 5 Be-
an honor guest, gave the invoca-^ reaved parents, still stunned by

"ISLE OF
FURY"
What is the "Low-price Field '?
YOU-hear a lot about "the low-price field" these
days. A good many cars claim to be in it.
So whenever the low-price field is mentioned,
^ _ remember:
^ *..
Until Ford came, no average American conld
own a car. ,,
Today all Ford prices are still low — with the.
prices of the 60-horsepower Ford V-8 $30 to"
v- $60 lower than those of any other car of com-
parable size.
- But with Ford, "low price" doesn't merely
mean low figures on the price tag. It means much
. mor^ than ^ that. It means low prices and low
costs all the car's long life. Low prices for ser-
vice, — for parts —- and, above all, for operation.
Both Ford y-a engfafe^slaes, are economical to
operate. The 85 horsepower gives greater gas-
oUne mileage this year than evei*, and the "60*
delivers the highest mileage in Ford history.
Private owners, cab companies, fleet operators
all report that the "60" averages from 22 to 27
' miles per gallon of gasoline. ' ' —
Check and see how much Ford saves yon.
