According to Shelton, the 1951 census showed that there are 617 Negro farm operators in the county, and the 1200 acre goal could easily be reached if each farmer planted only two acres of pasture. ^ Pastures are badly needed in the county, Shelton said, in view of the ever increasing amoimt of livestock. “All animals need grass, and it is a very cheap food supply. The amount of labor and expense in volved is very small compared to the value received from seed ing one acre of pasture,” he add ed in urging Jones county farm ers to reach the 1200 acres of pasture land goal. Shelton also pomted out many tobacco farmers who are plagued with the many risks en- cotmtered la producing a tobacco crop may find that an increase in production of livestock will insure greater financial security. “The way to become a live stock farmer ia to grow into it,” Shelton declared. Shelton said that a typical livestock pro'gram which could increase a farmer’s income by (1,000 in one year included only 1) 3 brood sows, 2) 725 bush es of com, 3) two acres of La- dino clover pasture, 4) three sows with eight pigs per litter affording 48 pigs for sale at the rate of $20.00 per hundred pounds. The total cost for this opera tion should average around $800, Shelton said, including $500 to produce the com. Shelton also listed seven steps which prospective livestock farmers may use in starting pas ture lands. They are; 1) select a field for the pasture that has been tested for lime, fertilizer requirements, etc., 2) prepare a good seed bed, 3) use two or three pounds of ladino clover plus 15 pounds of kentucky 31 or 41 fescue grass, 4) apply 600 to 800 pounds of 2-12-12 fertiliz er, using soil test, 5) seed be tween September 1 and 15, 6) cover lightly, and 7) watch that “good ’ole green grass grow this Fall.” Mrs. Nellie Hodge Of Liberia Is Recent Visitor At Durham Church Durham—Mrs. Nellie Hodge of Liberia, West Coast, Africa was a visitor at Mt.
