these cool mornings. It seems as
is winter is just around the corner
The farmers are just about thru
gathering their crops. How we do
need a good rain to stop all the
fire hazards, for fire can destroy
so much in just a few minutes. We
should all be very careful with fire

Conservation News
Henry King of the Nichols Con-
servation Group states that he has
seeded 500 pounds of crimson clov-
er on his bottom pasture. This
type clover is adapted to rich loam
and clay soils and will be used by
Mr. King for grazing. Since its
growth come during the wetter
part of the year it will have its
erosion control values.
John Holcomb of the Kellyville
Conservation Group made a study
of his pasture problems Wednes-
day. He stated that carpet grass
was not very valuable for livestock
and that through cultivation and
fertilizing he was going to develop
his bermuda grass. He says carpet
cannot stand good treatment.
W! H. Lee of the Cass Conserva
tion Group made application for a
complete, coordinated Soil and
Water conservation plan to be
made on his farm. U. P. Peacock
also made application. These are
additions to old groups. Total
acreage on both farms amounted
to l!)fi acres. Mr. Lee ask for a
preliminary survey for a stock-
water pond, by the engineers of
the Soil Conservation Service.
M. P.. Allen of the Linden Con-
servation Group has just complet-
ed construction of a stock water
pond in his pasture.
R. E. Welch of Flat Creek
Group says, "The proper use of
my farm, according to the land
classification by the Soil Conser-
vation Service, should be timber
and pasture" The farm planner
is making a study of this farm
with Mr. Welch and together, they
find the land mostly to be a deep
medium textured, permeable bot-
tom soil, very suitable for pasture
and meadow. Since it overflows it
is better to keep it in permanent
vegetation.
Bob Phillips of the Lanier Group
was in the office Thursday get-
ing the number of yards required
to build a dam to a stockwater
pond in his pasture. Mr. Phillips
took the figures and left in search
of a contractor to do the construc
tion.
D. D. Hunt of Marietta worked
out a conservation plan on his
farm this week. He says, "wheth-
er I rent my land out or farm it
myself, I think a conservation plan
should be followed."
Machinery moved Thursday to
the farms of Virgil Hawkins and
L. E. Loffer to begin construction
of dams.
Leon Coker of Naples called by
telephone and said he was planning
to seed a 22 acre field to winter
cover and would probably use ab-
ruzzi rye and anstrian winter peas
Lee Skelton of Lone Oak says
that he is ready for his dam to
be checked for completion. Roy
Melton of this same group thinks
his new stock water pond will be
a good success. It was located in
a very slowly permeable type of
soil.
The following peom by Ely
brings out some good ideas of the
eventual outcome of a man who
lives in waste. We cannot build
this nation on erosion like that.
The ultimate results iB desolation.
THE UNJUST STEWARD
0 gullied earth, sheet washed and
bleeding so;
No care, misuse, unkept by
thoughtless man.
A steward, made of clay by God
To guard and keep, in loving
trust, his land.
Vine covered hut, weather worn,
falling down,
Deserted, unoccupied by living man
O keeper, left on earth by God
To use resources as best you
truly can.
•
Empty church, dusty pulpit,
manless pew;
No life except desolation's spirit
Now in search of he who lies
In forgotten, unkempt grave
yard nigh it.
O mortal man, wastrel of Heaven's
gifts,
Could this have been thy highest
goal in youth,,
Or thy pay, meted out by God
For swevering from his ever liv-
ing truth?
