Frank Saunders Carries On Farm Program Of Father How One Boy It Farming By Improved Methods On a recent visit to the unit demonstration farm of the late C. H. Saunders, outstanding re sults were noticed from the fol lowing of a well rounded farm management prognam. Mr. Saun ders was selected as a demonstra tion farmer kate in 1939. Until his death, approximately two years ago, Mr. Saunders was doing a fine job building up his farm to a higher state of fertility and pro ductivity. Upon his death the oper ation of this farm passed into the hands of his young son, Frank, who had not yet finished high school. Frank has accepted this responsibility and done an excel lent job in carrying on where his father left off. Young Mr. Saunders has suc ceeded in starting a very good pasture on a worn out hill that was badly eroded. This hill of ap proximately 7 or 8 acres has been thoroughly limed and phosphated and seeded to a good pasture mix ture and is now beginning to af ford very good grazing. Before this kind was treated and put in to pasture very poor returns were received from it. Yaar Rotation Frank is following a three year rotation of red clover and grass with his row crops. This rotation is proving very successful as it affords an abundance of high qual ity hay and at the same time makes it easy to control erosion and furnishes an excellent soil im proving crop for the rowt tha fol lows. By the use of check pots in his fields it has been possible ito ob serve the very good results ob tained from the use of calcium oieta phosphate used on legume crops. Where the phosphate was not applied it has been impossible to secure a good stand of clover and grass. Also these check plots show that the yields of small grain and corn have been greatly in- 1 creased as a result of the use of phosphate on legumes to be turned under. Mr. Saunders says that their average yield of wheat before they became demonstration farm ers was about 12 bushels per acre. Corn Ms about 40 bushels per acre and is now about 70. Wheat and corn grown on the chjeck plot in his fields still shows this low yield and the wheat is badly dam aged by smut. The limed and phos phated areas do not seem tot be damaged by this disease. Hay has also increased in yield from less than a ton per acre to approxi mately two tons per acre. Through the use of lime and phosphate be is now able to produce clover which could not be done before. Mr. Saunders states that before the farm was approved as a demon stration farm they bought both hay and corn every year. He has already sold over $100 worth of hay this year and has well over a 100 bushels of corn for sale. DWariifitd Profnun In .addition to the above good practices a very good diversified program of fanning is carried out on this farm. For a number of years purebred Duroc Jersey h<jgs have bieen raised on this farm with an average income of approximate ly 450 to 500 dollars being realized per year. There are about 60 laying hens on this farm that are at present producing approximately 50 eggs per day that bring in about 24 dollars per month from the sale of eggs on the local market. The flock on this farm was a mixture of several breeds until recent years. It has been changed to pure bred New Hamshire Reds and in creased producton has been ob tained. Also Mr. Saunders is usinf a lamp brooder which he finds very satisfactory in brooding out tiis young chicks. Recently a whole milk route was established in this neighborhood. The income from the sale of miHc on this fcirm for one month from three oows was $30 as compared to $12 from the sale of cream from the same cows for a lihe period ?f time. M r. Saunders says that since they have an ovailble milk market he plans to breed his cows to good dairy bulls and save the heifer calves for future herd re placements. Mr. Saunders says that after the war is over he plans to build a new home and maJce some badly needed repairs on his outbuildings.
