ON THE RIGHT TRACK We were much interested in noting the prog ress that Jeter Ramsey, Revere, is making in securing pastures and meadows on his land. Jeter tells us that he makes it a point to sow grass and clover seed with every crop of small grain. As a result of this prac tice the farm is fast becoming a grass farm. Another object which he has in view is a herd of beef catle to con vert this grass into dollars. Jeter believes that he can make more real profit thru following the method he has started than he can by endeavor ing to cultivate the steep land. We are inclined to believe that he is right This is another farm that is surely becoming what we believe a moun tain farm should. The practice be ing followed approximates that idea held forth in the few lines of poetry at the head of this column. Read them again. POULTR SALES Monday 19111bs. of poultry were purchased. The price paid for this poultry amounted in total to $477.42. One prominent farmer stated that he had followed the price paid at these sales for the last four weeks and had found that they averaged for hens 5 to 6 cents more than he had been receiving. The price Monday was 6 to 7 cents more. If we figure a 4 pound hen, this would amount to 24 to 28 cents per bird that the seller realized be cause of the sale. HOME DEM.
