ASC To AM Fanaars la Draiaaaa Pragraau By John Smith About maty C hereto* Cooory ( armor l have applied ?> the Cotaty ASC Commits** tar aaslstanr* with tiledrela ag* under the 1961 ACP pro gram. Many of theae farmers have already done part of the work of digging die ditches In which die will be laid. WlthU the next few days, all at theae farms will have been visited by technicians 0 1 the Soil Coo servatloa Service to complete the engineering surveys which are required. Practically every fanner who has dug a ditch knows that It la back breaking labor, and It should not be necessary to dig s ditch but oae time In one man's lifetime. When the ditches are properly dug and tile Is correctly laid In the ditch. It should not be neces sary to replace the tile for many, many years. The first tile ditches which were laid In the United States ss far as can be determined, were laid In New York State In 1808. These ditches are still fun ctioning as well now as they did when newly completed more than one' hundred fifty years ago. A few farmers sre still going to the trouble of digging ditches In wet sre as of their fields snd then putting poles In the ditches instead of tile. Muy ><y that they ctanot afford the die b put la the ditch. It is a known fact, ho* ever, tk* pole* caa b* sold aa pulp (or almost mi^ti m pay (or the tile ? put In the ditch. Sine* the ASC will aaaUt any farmer who applies (or assistance with tile ditching, provided he has not used his yearly allotment in lime, seed, or fertilizer, and who applies within a certain period of time titer the (lrat of the year. It seems n be a waste of time and money u cover poles In s ditch. At best, the poles will last not more than twenty years, anct the farmer will be (aced with the problem of dig ging the same ditch over. Assistance in digging open ditches is also available from the ASC office. This type of drainage is also very valuable to farms needing drainage, particularly where the poorly drained acreage is lsrge. The photographs printed below show a field needing drainage and the same field after the ditch was dug. Tile has been installed in this ditch and there is now no sign that the area was ever wet. except at the creek where the tile line empties a constant flow of water winter and summer. Above: A field before ditching. Below: The same field after ditching. Agayah Club Meets R0BBINSV1LLE - The Ag ayah Club met Monday night, April 3, at the Bemls Mem orial .Library.
