I j 1 I Two out of every three farm 1 families on the Farm Security Administration rural rehabilita tion program in North Carolina! are paying off their loans as pay- 1 ments mature. Vance E- Swift, North Carolina State Director of Farm Security Administration at Raleigh, an-' nounced this week that out of 14,559 farm families now on the program, only,' 4,817 or 33 per cent were delin-;' quent on June 30, end of the fis-1 cal year. j 1 FSA mikes loans to low income ' farm families, tenants as well as Bmall owners, for the purchase of { tools, workstock, livestock, fertil- j' izer, seed and improvements to ,' farm buildings. Each loan 's ' made on the basis of an operation ' plan worked out by the family • 1 and the supervisors for the farm. 1 and home, to be carried out by ' the farmer-borrower with the ' guidance and help of the FSA County Supervisors. Dual pur- ' pose of this farm and home plan j' is subsistence production for the ' family and conservation of the 1 soil- j' Mr. Swift said North Carolina'' now has 12f>0 "graduates" of th* ( FSA program. These borrowers,' ' 1 have paid up their loans in full nnd presumably are making their 1 own way, supporting themselves 1 without help, since they have not, l applied for additional loans. A total of $8,997,222 including i' $2,700,000 loaned for this crop l ' year has been loaned to low in- ' come farm families in North Car-. 1 1 olina and 53,906,167 has been re paid- Since the loans are mado 1 for five years, this repayment rec- ' ord is considered good, Mr. Swift J said. The total amount repaid to date is about 83 per cent, of ma- 1 turities- Mr. Swift said FSA ' eventually expects to collect from 80 to So jm r cent, of HV its 'oans To date, FSA has helped some 17,000 farm families in North Carolina.

Many farmers inquire every year about the proper time to cut various crops for hay- Les-1 pedeza should be cut as Boon as it has obtained a good growth and not later than when in full | bloom. Soybeans should be cut when the pods just begin to form and cowpeas when the pods turn| reddish in color. Alfalfa should j l be cut when it is from 1-4 to 1-I®, in bloom. Red clover when in full bloom. Cutting hay af the proper time insures better quali ty and more feed value. The maximum amount of feed value can be obtained with the above, ' if cut at the time recommended. This has been determined after I exhaustive experiment by the ' State and federal experiment sta tions. Too much emphasis can not be placed on handling hay '; carefully and in such a way 05at 1 the maximum amount of leaves on the plant can be saved and the green color retained- The protein content and feeding qual ity of hay is governed in most in stances by leafiness and green color.
