Ralph McDonald, [ candidate for the Democratic nomination "for governor, urged here last Friday night that the | State "operaaT on a balanced buu- 1 | get, with a safe and reasonable j margin of revenues over expendi-1 tures." McDonald spoke at a pub lic meeting arranged by frienJs' to carry his campaign into David-1 son county. I I I "After the debt is paid from the general fund surplus as I have recommended, the State will be co!ufcuiig'excess taxes amount-1 ing to $35,000,000 a year above; all the present expenses of the! State government. More than j $25,000,01)0 of this excess will be J in the general fund every year i; j we keep the present tax strur-, lure and the present budget," h ! said. "For several years the Stat' has been collectnig more taxe than the total requirements of the State budget," McDonald de clared. "This extra money has been piling up for years in the State treasury. By July 1, 1945, j the amount will exceed $130,000,-1 j •00 as an accumulated surplus, representing taxes collected from the people of the State and not i used to operate the State govern-• ment." McDonalT stated emphatically that the excess revenues everyj year are sufficient to provide in creased appropriations and reduc-1 od taxes at the same time. $35. j COO,OOO is a lot of extra mone\ ! * to be coming in each year. La- i year, 1912-43, the sales til | brought in less Fhan $18,000,001 | Without the sales tax, it is a safe i prediction that our present t j structure "will bring in between) $15,000,000 and $20,000,000 mov. j money" than the total expenses o! , 'our State biTHget at present. ,Here is ample leeway for large in creases in appropriations both from the general fund and from the highway fund for their re spective purposes."

While these factors are very important, actually the fail ures in pasture establishment are , more often the direct result of in- j sufficient fertility. If sufficient , fertility is present, adapted pas ture plant 3 will gradually enter and become established on manv ares in the State and county with out seeding, while in the absence of proper fertility no amount of j seeding will pro luce n satisfr.c- J tory sod. i Several farmers in Stokes coun- | ty have illustrated the effect of lime and phosphate upon estnh- j lishment of some of our common pasture plants on poor and f r-! tile soils. Under treatment of i mineral fertilizer and limestone 1 weeds were considerably reducil j lespedeza moic than doubl.d, r.n ' grasses a:id clover increased, I.- \ other words, the total vegctrti >:i! can be increased about one-third i and the amount of desirable spe cies from about 2" tt GO percent.

Also a j heavy application of stable ma nure will increase the quality and ■quantity of grasses. These ma ! terials should be used in combin»» ! tion with each other and ought to ; be applied as soon as possible to j get the maximum grazing thi« j summer and fall. Lime should be applied at the rate of around one urn per acre and phosphate should be applied at the rate of 3 to 4 hundred pounds per acre.
