(j If farmers cooperate whole-heart- 1 edly with the program, said Dean I. 1 y 0. Schaub of State College, it will ' fj elevate agriculture in this state to a 1 higher plane than ever before, e The new parogram embodies many h of the fundamental principles advocated by the extension service for years, he said, hut it is much more comprehensive and far-reaching than anything that has gone before. The nature of the new program makes it applicable to every farm in the State, said the dean in urging all farmers to take part in it so they can share in its benefits. Th? program will give the farmers direct financial aid in the iorm of payments for limiting their production of soil-depleting crops and for carrying out various soil-building and conserving practices. From 15 to 20 million dollars will be available for distribution this year in soil-conservation grants to North Carolina farmers. Indirectly it will aid them financially by preventing the production of price-ruining surpluses, by increasing the efficiency of farming, and by stimulating the live-at-home movement. The soil-building practices, if followed generally, will greatly increase the fertility of the soil within the next few years, the dean pointed out, and this soil will make possible a more economic and efficient production of crops. By checking erosion in the mountain and Piedmont areas and by re- { claiming worn-out land, he continued, the program will reverse the soil-ravaging processes that have been going on for years. This will ' help safeguard the future of agri - culture and the Nation. The program will encourage balanc ed farming so as to avoid the over1 production of certain crops to the ' neglect of others, it will also encour' sge the farmers to produce at home, as much as possible, the things needed on the farm. ' By stimulating the production of forage and feed crops, the program will gire an impetus to dairying and the production of beef cattle, the dean pointed out. x The State needs more dairy and . beef cattle, he emphasized An increase in timber production [ and land reclamation through refor, estation will also follow. This year r forestation of fields which have been in cultivation will probably count, as 5 a soil?biulding practice for whch ^ Mr. Kd Waldroups's and a number of logs have been logged into the yard. Rev. Will Hedden filled his regular appointment at Brasstown Sunday. Miss Ethel Coker made a business ! trip to Murphy Friday. ' An Easter egg hunt was given to 1 the children at the Folk School.
