A S C ITEMS The .Agricultural Conservation Program tor 1960 provides several instances where the government ?hares with the farmer the cost of conservation prastloes requiring application of 'lime or fertilizer. Slier Slagle, chairman of the Macon County AS.C. says that although a soil test is not manda tory under any of the A CP prac tices, it Is strongly recommended in every case. A.CP. practices, which should be preceded by a soil test include establishment of permanent pas ture, additional vegetative cover In a crop rotation, application of liming materials on farmland, im provement of permanent pasture and others. According to Mr. Slagle, every one of these practices reoommends that the farmer take a soil test to determine soil treatment. How ever, in the absence of a Soil test they permit application of two tons of lime per acre on land that has not been limed within the past five years and one ton of limestone per acre if the land has been limed within the past five years. The practice also carries a standard recommenda tion on fertilizer, which varies with the vegetative cover being established. The need for lime on North Carolina soils is great and even with the cost share assistance available through AS.C., only a small fraction of our needs are being met. Mr. Slagle pointed out that farmers who are planning to seed this fall should order their lime now and apply it. With the different types of soil that is on Macon County farms the standard amount of fertilizer and lime could not apply. Some soil re quires more than two tons of lime per acre and on others the ap plication of lime would be wasted. The only way to determine this is to have soil tests made. Soil test cartons, instruction sheets and other assistance in the taking of soil samples may be obtained at the AjS.C. office or from any other agricultural agency in Ma con County, Mr. Slagle said. Work Starts Work has started on the an nual summer job of checking crop acreages participating In the acreage allotment program of AS.C. All farms with an allotment acreage and farms which have a Conservation Reserve contract In effect will be visited during June and July. The purpose of the visit is t* determine the acreage plant ed and to see if the Boll Bank farms are In compliance with all terms of the contract. In connection with the acreage measurement job for I960, farmers are urged to cooperate fully with the reporter when he visits their farms. Produoer cooperation can help us do this job faster, more accurately and more economically. Tamers can help by being sure to have someone on the farm who can assist the reporter in measur ing the acreage. Since farmers know that the work has been started they should be at home or have someone there who know* the location of the field and also to sign the related forms. The work of the reporter is only a part of the performance Job. The reporter measures the acreage and turns the measurements in to the county office where the acreage is computed, posted to applicable records, and notices are prepared and mailed to the farmer. Re porters who have been trained for this year's work are Tommy Raby and Verlon Poindexter.
