K. Thornton, extention agricul-
tural chemist who has charge
of the lab.
The chemist says the big rea-
son for the slow down is the con- ;
tinuing drouth and the uncer-j
tainty that rains will come in I
time to permit the seeding of j
fall and winter pastures or win-
ter legume crops. But Thornton
is sure that Texas farmers and
ranchmen who go ahead with
their planning will be far ahead
when rains do .come.
Three miles of broad based ter-
races were completed this week
by Cooperator Otis Skinner on his
farm near Hengst Store. These
terraces will discharge excess
water into a previously shaped
and sodded bermudagrass water-
way. These terraces were built
at a cost of approximately seven-
ty dollars per mile; seventy per
cent or forty-nine dollars of
which will be refunded through
the cost-sharing furnished by the
County Agricultural Stabilization
Committee. Total cost to land-
owner will average less than one
revues I dollar and fifty cents per acre.
The question is -Can you as a
(landowner put off needed terrac-
es on your farm when the cost
are so small as compared to the
achievement event in the 4-H

Heavy Broiler Supply
1$ Prospect For
. Fall Months
COLLEGE STATION, Oct.
— Broiler placements continue
at or near record levels. By mid-
September approximately 75 mil-
lion broiler chicks hsid been
placed on Texas forma this
year as against SI million for
the same period in 1955 ........ an
increase of 23 per cent.
For the 22 major broiler pro-
ducing states. approximately
155.9 million more broiler chicks
were placed on farms than for
the same period a year earlier.
This is an Increase of 20.6 per-
cent.
This Increased production, ac-
cording to F. Z. Beanbtossom
and Hermit Schlamb, extension
poultry marketing specialises,
has kept broiler prices Sower
than those of a year ago with
the spread between peaks and
valleys also less than in 1985.
As for the immediate future,
the specialists, say that present
indications ara that October and
November broilers will meet
heavier competition for the con-
sumer's dollar from a larger
supply of turkey and fowl. Too,
they say, the red meat supply
may be slightly higher it the pre-
sent movement of cattle from
drouth areas continues to in-
crease. Low prices for cull
breeder hens has retarded their
going to market and this jus
been a factor in keeping the sup-
ply of broiler hatching egga up.
Cold storage holdings of
broilers during 1956 have been
running considerably higher
than for the aama months in 1955
but as yet have not reached ex-
cessive proportions, say the
specialists.
Since lower prices are being
paid for broilers, the specialists
believe that before any price
recovery can be made, produc-
tion will have to be pulled more
nearly in line with demands.
Under the present conditions,
they add, growers must produce
top quality birds and do It in the
most efficient way, if any profit
is to be made.

to producers for many days;
thus slowing the job of seeding
if the lab report is to be of value.
Thornton believes that farmers
should be prepared to take ad-
vantage of any situation which
gives them enough moisture to
insure a stand of fall seeded
! crops. By submitting soil sam-
ples now while the lab is not too
busy, producers can be assured
of getting fast returns. Too.
'they will be in a position to go
ahead with the planning for fall
,and winter crops.
The dollar spent for a soil ana-
lysis is often described as the
i host dollar w hich can be spent
for fertilizer. The soil analysis
could mean the difference be-
tween an average or below fait
and vvinter cropping season or a
highly successful one. Top
yields of high quality forage are
needed now in every section of
Texas and the use of fertilizers
w ill play a big part in making
Ihese objectives possible. Thorn-
ton says.
| A soil analysis will show the
i amount and kind of fertilizer
needed to get the most from
crops or pastures regardless of
the growing season.
