Boyd Rebuilds Farm Ponds
To Raise Level Oi Water
By BOl* R. BECK
Soil Conservation Service
Church organizations of all de
nominations throughout America
are observing Soil Stewardship
Week from May 6 through May 12
Governor Luther H. Hodges pro
claimed Soil Stewardship Week in
the State of North Carolina.
Soil Supervisor Dave Boyd of
Jonathan Creek is rebuilding and
raising the water level on one of
his farm ponds. Mr. Boyd installed
a drain pipe so his pond would
meet requirements of the State
health laws. He has built an emer
gency flood spillway and is seeding
this and the new fill to clover and
fescue grass. Mr. Boyd says he
plans to fence cattle out from this'
pond.
Elzy Caldwell backfilled the tile
drain crossing the center of R G.
Coffey's farm in Saunook. A blind
inlet of rock and gravel was used
at the upper end of the tile line to '
let surface water percolate into the
tile. The rock and gravel Alter out i
trash which might otherwise block
the tile line. This tile will give
better drainage to the land, as well
as make one field out of two, for
efficient tractor farming. ?
A trial seeding of Drop-Seed
grass on the highway in front of
Floyd Fisher's place has come up
well during these nice spring rains.
This trial planting was made by
the Soil Conservation Service in
cooperation with the State Highway
Department.
