Hemphill Sees Greater Activity < In Pasture Improvement For Year , Improvement of pastures Is one of the better farming prac tices being carried on by live stock producers using Farmers Home Administration adjust ment loans In Macon County, according to Ray F. Hemphill, the agency's county supervisor. Many of the farm families in the county who farmed with the help of Farmers Home Ad ministration loans last year, In cluded in their farm and home plans such pasture improve ment practices as better seed ing, renovating, irrigation, fer tilization, clipping for weed control, and rotation grazing. Mr. Hemphill said he expects even greater activity In pasture Improvement during the next year. Other better farming prac tices being carried on by farm ers in the county with F. H. A. adjustment loans Include live stock Improvement through good management practices such as Improved selection, breeding, feeding, and market ing. Crop Improvement Is also be ing achieved, and Is expected to Laws, Woodrow, 100 acres ....31.75 Leatherman, Carl, 7 acres . 11.80 Lowe, J. N?

Many farm plans also call for use of more adequate equipment and machinery through replacement and re pair. More efficient farming is helping the families make full er use of their land and avail able labor, Mr. Hemphill said. Improvements in farm efficien cy and the resultant higher in come are reflected in increased trade with local merchants, generally higher living stand ards for the families, and great er contributions to support of schools and other community services. Only farmers unable to ob tain from banks and other local lenders adequate credit needed* to make necessary adjustments and improvements In their farming operations are eligible for Farmers Home Administra- . tion loans, Mr. Hemphill point ed out. He said a large propor tion of the families are veter ans or other young families just getting started in farming. After an average of about five years most families improve ; their situations to the point where they can go to banks or other lending Institutions for , the credit they need. F. H. A. loans supplement rather than compete with other credit. The aim of the whole program is to help worthy farmers become eligible for good bank credit and then go ahead entirely on their own, he explained. The average family with an operating or adjustment loan In this county is showing a good Increase from year to year in net income, net worth, farm inventory, and amount of work ing capital. In addition to loans for farm operating purposes, the Farm ers pome Administration also extends credit for buying, en larging, or improving farms; for soil and water conservation practices; and for meeting emergency needs. Every agricultural county has a three-member county Farm ers Home Administration com mittee. At least two members must be farmers. The commit tee considers all loan applica tions and sees that every farm er who gets a loan has reason able prospects for conducting a sound farming operation with the assistance provided with the loan.

C Cover Crops \nswer Soil Nitrogen Needs Many Macon farmers are 'lndlng they can produce much I >f the nitrogen needed for next pear's row crops by growing winter cover crops, reports Carl Morgan, chairman of the Ma :on County A. 8. C. committee. He points out that a good le ;ume cover crop turned under xi the spring will yield an equivalent of 300 to 400 pounds jf nitrogen fertilizer to the icre. In addition, Mr. Morgan notes, legumes, as well as grass :over crops, when turned under provide a way to keep up the )rganlc matter In the soli, to Increase the ability of the soil to soak up and hold moisture, ind to Improve soil structure. All of these factors are impor tant In checking erosion. Because of the growing and plowing under of legumes and grasses Is so Important in con servation, It Is one of the major practices In the A. S. C. I program this year. In view of the many conservation benefits obtained through the protect ing of the soil during winter months and turning the crop under as a "green manure" in the spring, restrictions on the acreage a farmer may put in this practice have been lifted. In the past, cost sharing under A. C. P. has been limited to the acreage In excess of the average winter corer crop planting for the past three years. The fall sign-up period Is still going on.
