Clay ASCS News A total of 159 farmers have signed agreements to divert 926 acres from the production of corn to a con servation use under the 1964 feed grain program. These farmers have received a total payment of $16,528.92 which represents approximately one half of the diversion payment on this acreage. March 27 is the final date to sign to divert acreage for payment under the 1964 pro gram. We hope to get more farmers in the program than last year. We lack 39 reach ing last year's number now. ????? Previous year's feed grain programs have permitted grazing of diverted acreage until May 1. This year the grazing period has been changed. One month has been cut off the spring grazing and added to the fall date. Graz ing is not permitted during the period between March 31 and October 1. To date 363 farmers have requested and received ap provals under the ACP to carry out conservation prac tices on their farms. Farm ers desiring to take part in the program who have not visited the office and filed their request, should do so at an early date. Now that the weather is permitting some field work, farmers should be reminded of their responsibility to report the completion of ACP practices. This report can be made in the ofiice or by signing and mailing the pink copy of the approval which is given to the farmer when his request is approved. Request to have burley ac reage measured and staked prior to planting will be tak en through March 16. A deposit of $8.00 to cover the actual cost of this service is required at the time the request is fil ed. ***** There is a lot of selling and buying of land going on in Clay County. During the 1963 year we processed 105 farm reconstitutions as a result of land sales. We have had about 30 this year. Please advise farmers buy ing and selling land to report the fact to this office in order that we may keep our records straight. Weather Service For WNC Now On 24 Hour Basis Weather service for West ern North Carolina went on a 24-hour basis at midnight Saturday, March 14. Congressman Roy A. Taylor announced in Washington that expanding hours at the pre sent Asheville weather sta tion is the first step toward providing 'round-the-clock services from a new Weather Bureau station at the Ashe ville Airport. Representative Taylor said the entire operation is sche duled for transfer to the air port by June 15. Taylor helped sponsor legislation containing funds for the program. The money was approved by Congress last fall. Until the transfer to the airport is made, the Ashe ville office will begin 24 hour service with the addition of three meteorologists. The new service will as sure earlier and more ac curate school weather fore casts, better agricultural weather information for farm ers and improved flood and fire danger warnings, Repre sentative Taylor said. J Aviation interests will benefit from transfer of the station to the Asheville Air port, where recent growth of general and commercial avia tion has been rapid. Air wea ther observations are pre sently made by Federal Avia tion Agency personnel at the airport. The transfer of facilities will free FAA personnel for full attention to their pri mary duties in traffic control *nd communications. Pilots will then be able to receive weather briefings directly from Weather Bureau per* sonnel.

Social Security News When a person files a claim for social security benefits, he expects to receive his first check promptly, and the en suing checks on time. This is exactly the way the Social Security Administra tion wants to pay all benefits ? the right amount to the right person on time. James E. Robertson, Man ager of the Asheville district office said today the resources of his agency are directed to ward accomplishing this end because experience shows that the period between the last paycheck and the first bene fit check is usually a most critical one for beneficiaries. Mr. Robertson said the claimant himself can do much toward helping the social se curity office get benefit checks started promptly. Workers planning to retire and claim benefits should in quire 2 to 3 months early to find out what may be needed to complege their claims. Then when the time comes to visit the office to file the claim, they will be prepared to bring all the required proofs and information. Mr. Robertson added that one of the main reasons checks are unnecessarily delayed is the failure of claimants to find out ahead of time about what may be needed in their par ticular cases; delay results when they experience dif ficulty in getting some es sential document or proof, after the claim is filed. He emphasized, however, that even though the claimant does not have all the needed evidence at the time, he should not delay the actual filing of the claim at the proper time. Time Has Arrived For Selection Of Corn Hybrids, Fertilizers By James M. Stewart County Extension Chairman Most corn gr owners can de cide now just what varleyt of hybrids they want to grow in 1964. It is important that growers select their hybrids and make sure the dealer stocks the variety and re serve sufficient corn for their needs. What is important in a good hybrid? Characteristics to consider are high yielding ability, ability to stand up. blight resistance and ability to produce under close spac ing. Don't wait until planting time to select corn hybrids. By then it may be too late to get the corn best suited for D*td Transfers Franklin L. Woodard et als to Kenneth Warren and Mildred Woodard, property in Hiawassee Township. L.

Certainly this would be worth your time to consider because it repre sents one of the most impor tant investments a livestock and row crop farmer can con sider. Corn will be grown on some 4,000 plus acres in Cherokee Co My this year. The most common fertilizer used in ihe row with corn has been 5-10-10. Growers will have the op portunity this year to pur chase 10-20-20. This analysis will be stocked by most dealers. Farmers using 10-20-20 can handle half as much material and reduce their cost of plant food. With the fertilizer used in the row a good amount of ni trogen is needed. 30-10-0, ammonium nitrate and liquid nitrogen on most soils can be broadcast prior to planting corn. For grain corn, approximately 100 pounds of actual nitrogen is needed and for silage 180-200 pounds of N is required for top yields. ????? If you have clover and want to keep it with your grass use analysis such as 0-25-25 or 0-30-30. If the pasture or meadow is mainly grass, use 0-10-20 or 0-18-30, andtopdress with 60 100 pounds of nitrogen now and repeat again in August. Pure grass stands need a ratio of four parts nitrogen, one part phosphorous and two parts potash. This 4-1-2 ratio is essen tial for maximum grass pro duction. 30-10-0 can be ap plied with potash to give a good balance for pure grass. Other nitrogen forms such as ammonium nit rage (33.5 0-0) and liquid nitrogen (30 0-0) are available now. NOW 5 HOLIDAY INNS in ATLANTA AREA in downtown ?
