Says Meadow Is His
Most Fertile Field
RALEIGH, June 23 Ono of the
most productuve fields on the farm
of Joe Brown in Madison County
has not been plowed in 63 veai's.
It has been resided only otu-e,
and that was just after a flood iom ;
years ago had covered the field w , '
several inches of silt.
This two- acre meadow a.)mg &
creek runnir.ar through his farm pro
duces four to live tons of high qual
ity hay every year, an i oce:i.:ouj :
it is used to pasture cattle over
winter.
Brown to! 1 George W. Miller, farm
agent of the State College extension
service in Madison County that the
sod of perennial grasses and legumes
is so thick that none of the soil has
been lost in the past 63 years.
But from time to time when the
creek vises, deposits of silt are left
on the meadow, and today it has a
fertile topsoil several feet deep.
The spongy, porus topsoil will soak
up large quantities of rain water and
hold it long after the rain has stop
ped falling, Brown said thus the
meadow is little attested by long, dry
spells.
Miller commented that this one
field is a good demonstration of the
value of good land in making pro
ductive pastures, and of the impor
tance of soil-conserving crops to
check erosion, conseive moisture,
and build up soil fertility.
Pasturage is the cheapest form of
dairy and beef cattle fee J to be
found in the Slate, he continued. Yet
irany farmers fail to take advantage
of the possibility they have for mak
ing good, permanent pastures. As a
result, livestock production costs are
higher in North Carolina than in
most of the other States.

Inferior grade spuds can be fed to
hogs profitably, he continued, and
this will help reduce the surplus i

If the potatoes are boiled in salt
