[ IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
i FOR THE FARMERS TO 08-|
SERVE THE ASSISTANT
COUNTY AGENT GIVES IN
STRUCTIONS TO FARMERS.
i' Practically all of the farms
' that were covered by work'
sheets have been checked by'
I local supervisors for compliance.
i
There may be a few scattered
; farms that have not been check- j
: ed, however. Nearly all of the;
maps and reports that were!
i turned in by local supervisors j
have been checked in the offic«.
■ and the necessary forms are
being filled out as rapidly as
possible. It has been found from
I !
; these reports that a large number
of the farmers have not earned
! all of their soil building allow
i ance for their farms by carrying'
out certain approved practices.:
,The supervisors at the time of
. checking the farms reported all
, practices that had been carried
, carried out since the farms were |
out up to that time.
| Any practices that have been
checked for compliance should b
. reported by the farmer as eark
as possible so that he may be
given credit for them. In repor*-
i ing these practices send to the
County Agent's office a state
ment of just what has been done;
for example, turning cow peas,
'.espedeza, or any of the other
practices and have some disin
terested cooperating farmer to
sign the statement with you.
This will eliminate the necessity
of sending a supervisor back to
check the far m again,
j According to the rules of the
Soil Conservation Act, all of the
approved practices should be
carried out by October 31, as'
this is the final limit for which
credit can be given.
I All farmers who have had ter
t
races built between March 1 and ,
October 31 will be given credit I
toward earning their soil build
ing allowance.
Terracing Work
The terracing unit is working
'at present in the Ross-Stor*
Community, but it is planned
| now to move the machine to the
Dillard Community in Beaver Is
land Township within the next
few days. If any of the farmers
in that section, who have not al
ready stated that they want ter
racing work done, will report to
the County Agent's office or to
the crew in charge, they will V.,
-ki ved as early as possible . A
number of farmers in that
section have cooperated with the
C. C. C. Camp' at Madison which,
is rendering a valuable service. ,
If you are interested in ccopera-1
tion with the C. C. C. Camp, we ,
will be glad to help you in any ,
way. • ,
