Rebuilding Pastures Profitable Operation, A. S. C. Chairman Says Rebuilding "under? privileged" pastures is always a profitable farm operation, but this rebuild ing or top-dressing should be car ried out while the grasses and legumes are still dormant, is the reminder of Carl Morgan, chair man of the Macon County A. S. C. committee. While the plants are dormant during the winter before spring growth begins, they are not as susceptible to burning that often occurs when fertilizer is applied during the growing season, he ex plains. The dormant season pro vldes an opportunity to top-dress j pastures during a slack time In the way of other farm work, j Permanent pastures In this state, Mr. Morgan ,s$ys, are the most, neglected and run-down of all farm crops, and much of the pasture land is low in fertility in the beginning or it has been weak ened by drought during the last two years or by over-grazing. Farmers who may be unable to renovate the pastures without help are reminded that the 1955 Agri cultural Conservation Program now carries a special practice Number 19. This practice provides for federal cost-sharing for the application of fertilizer or lime to permanent vegetative cover normally used for grazing or hay. 1 This Is for pasture that has been | severely retarded because of drought and which may be re- ] turned to a normal siand and growth through such application. A soil test is required under this practice and the practice must be carried out before spring growth normally begins in the area. Mr. Morgan urges all farmers to check with the local A. S. C. office on Practice 19, or any other conservation problems they might have. Alfalfa can be jrown in all sec tions of North Carolina except the Tidewater areas and should pro duce from three 4'/2 tons of hay i per year.

ROAD PHONE 60-J Even the bumps are smoother in the 55 Buick ride HOTTEST BUICK IN HISTORY No wonder you see so many 1955 Buiclcs on the highways ? they're rolling up bigger sales than ever in history ? topping the popularity that has already made Bui-1' one o* the "Big Three." Tvo be honest ? there are sonjie bumps which nothing will level out completely. "Vet even the real rough ones turn out a lot ? smoother when you're in a 1955 Buick. And that's not just our say-so. New owners of these new beauties keep telling us that. So you may wonder? how come? What's dif ferent about the Buick ride that makes it such a marvel? The answer is? plenty. Most cars have coil springs on front wheels only. Buick has them all around ? and this year they're newly calibrated for even deeper smothering of jounce and jar. So here your ride is balanced, buoyant, level, serenely smooth. Most cars drive through the rear springs. Buick drives through a torque-tube lh;it takes up all driving thrust, wipes out rear-wheel wiggle and wag, steadies y.ur going to a sure and solid track.
