Farmers Are Urged To Complete, Report ACP Practices Farmers who are partcipating in the County's Agricultural Con servation Program have at least two responsibilities, according to Minnie J. Rice, County ACP Clerk i with the ASCS Office. First, one ! responsibility is to complete the approved practice for Che farm in accordance with the Government specification requirements. A copy of the practice specification is given each farmer at the time the approval and purchase order are issued. Second, the farmer is re sponsible for making a performance report with the ASCS Office certifying the practice completion. The ACP Clerk pointed out that several fanners who have secured ACP approvals have not as yet made their reports, and she urges them to complete their practices and make their performance re ports et their earliest convenience but in no event later than the re port date shorn on the approval. In conclusion, Miss Rice stated that both the farm and the county would lose the benefit of the ACP help which was approved for the farm unless the farmers followed through with their responsibilities.

COMPLETE LMRNY Pick-up and I TUESDAYS and SATURDAYS IN AND AROUND MARSHALL Weaverville Laundry MADISON COUNTY Office Office Manager Mountain Pasture Fertilization Urged K. C. Reeves, of the Sandy Mush Community, has found that feed as well as breeding contri butes to producing choice beef cattle. In the past two yoars, Reeves has been fertilising h i s mountain pastures heavily with a high analysis fertiliier. His steers that he sold this fall weighed more and graded higher as a group than any group of steers he has sold in the past. Reeves says that his cows are not any better than they have been, but his feed is. Reeves has gone to a silage feeding program besides his pasture improvement. H i s steers, instead of just living throu gh the winter, actually gain weight and go on pasture in the spring in condition to continue gaining weight. His pasture this fall, even with the dry season that we had this year and stocked as heavily as he ever, is in better shape than they have been in previous springs be fore any cattle were put on them. In fact, he plans to , put some steers on that same pasture this fall for n month or two. Reeves says that feed is every bit as important a s breeding in producing good stink er steers.

INTRODUCING THE DEPENDABLES FOR '64 'vsisssS BWmaeWsneae I Good Bulls Gat Away From Us Mr. H arsenal Ramsey this year in the feeder calf sale had six of his calves grade fancy. This i a more fancy calves out of one herd than we have ever had In our co operatives sales. The real story lies in the farther of these calves. Mr. Ramsey had had him for about three years snd had saved several heifers, which meant he had to find a new hull or inbreed. Now, this outstanding bull has left Madison County. Madison County farmers are going to have to change their phi I losphy on purchasing their bulls if we are going to stop this flow of outstanding bull to other coun ties. It has been the practice our farmers to buy bull calves out of outstanding herds, hoping that unfortunately this is not always will produce outstanding calves; the case. Although the farmer thinks he is not lossing money, be cause he is able to grow him out and sell him for as much if n o t more than he paid for him as a cal, he does not take into consid eration the money he has lost i n several poor calf crops. Our far mers need to try tx purchase oro ven sires, where they can see the type of calvee he is getting nnd eliminate the chance of a poor calf crop. We need to try and keep our outstanding bulls at home. Gas Tobacco Now For Early Plants Many farmers in Madison Conn ty have been passing their lobar co plant beds with methel brom ide in the fall. Mr. Dewey Phillips who lives near Mars Hill followed this practice last year and esti mates that the early plants which he was able to grow made him at least $200 more per acre. The ad vantage of gassing in the fall is that when the weather is not fa vorable in the spring the plant beds are ready to seed. If you plan to gas your plant beds this fall, prepare and fer tilize in the usual method. Work ing the fertilizer well into the soil before applying the gas. The temperature and soil conditions are ideal for applying gas. A good ditch should be placed around the beds to prevent surface water from carrying weed seed into the olant bed area. If there are any high weeds near the plant bed site, they should be cut so that the wind cannot carry weed seed into the plant bed area. By doing this to bacco practice now, it would mean that you may seed your plant beds next spring at almost anytime you may wish.
