ASC News
By L. L. Kisselburg
County Office Manager
Tobacco farmers are re
quired by program regulations
to return their marketing
cards to the ASC Office at
the close of the marketing
season. 1 hope no farmer will
neglect to return their mar
keting card and have their
1961 allotment reduced be
cause of their neglect.
The regulations provide that
the producer must return the
tobacco marketing card issued
for the farm to the County Of
fice within thirty days after the
close of the markets in the gen
eral locality.
If all farmers return their
marketing cards as soon as
thev finish sellfhg their 1960
crop, they will greatly facil
itate the administration of a
program that means so much
to them. If farmers do not
return their marketing cards
promptly, they take a chance
of loosing vital acerage be
cause of their own careless
ness.
Farmers have solved many
of Cherokee County's conser
vation problems through work
performed under the agricul
tural conservation program on
their individual farms.
Under the 1960 ACP 1150
farmers in the county carried
out one or more conservation
practices. About 25% of those
participating In the ACP were
following afarm conservation
plan.
These conservation prac
tices protect the soil, water,
and woodland resources. In the
county, the major conservation
practices carried out under the
1960 ACP included:
1. Sowing New Pastures;
2. Sowing New Grasses For
Hay; 3. Lime For Land In
Old Grasses, or land that will
be seeded to grasses in 1960
or 1961: 4. Improving an old
stand of grasses and legumes
by the use of lime and fertil
izer and seed when It is de
termined that one or all three
are needed.
Through the ACP nationally,
the government pays about 1/2
the cost of approved conser
vation practices. The farmer
pays his half In cash, labor,
materials or use of equip
ment.
The County Committee for
1961 included the following
practices:
1. Establishing new pas
ture; 2. Seeding additional
grasses for hay; 3. Lime for
farmland; 4. Contour strip
cropping; 5. Planting forest
trees; 6. Improving an old
stand of grasses and legumes;
7 Open ditch drainage; 8. Tile
drainage; 9. Planting winter
cover crops.
Farmers who want to carry
out one or more of these prac
tices under the 1961 ACP may^
request cost sharing at the
Cherokee County ASC Office
in Murphy, N. C.
Suffering From
Shingles? Then
T ry Cat Blood
By Bill Strawn
Ever tried any "warm blood
from i fresh killed black c?t"
as a sure cure for shingles?
Or shooing some hens over
your prostrate children to
banish their chicken pox?
If you haven't you just
aren't savvy. Or so these an

tions would have It.
The two are among many
formwly cherished practices
described in "Popular Beliefs

will be published next spring
by the Duk? University Press.
Edited by Dr." Wayland D.
Hand, professor of German and

nulti-book series, "The
Frank C. Brown Collection
of North Carolina Folklore."
Other samples from the
coming volume include these:
"When the first boy is born
in a family, the old women of
the neighborhood collect and
burn all of the hats that the
baby's father owns. This
brings good luck, and If it isn't
done, the baby won't be wuth a
cent, and old Urim will get
him."
"Keep a new bottle hung up
to the left by a string close to
a sick person's bed, and keep
the bottle stopped might tight
so's to skeer the witches out
of the house."
And then there was this sup
posedly sure-fire rule for hav
ing a wife who would show
livelong obedience to her hus
band: The next morning after
marriage, her husband offered
her his 'britches."
Anytime thereafter, if the
wife became too bigglty, all
her husband had to do was to
remind her of his offer to
let her wear his pants - sym-,
bolic of top authority In a
household.
But let's return to that pic
turesque shingles remedy, a
belief relayed for the volume
by Mrs. Maude Mlnlsh Sut
ton of Lenoir. The super
sdtion states in pare
"Taln't no uie to have nq
doctor. 1 know Juat as good
what to do aa any doctor in
Nawth Carllner. My slater':
gal got shingles onct and hit
