Page 14 THE WAYNESVILLE MOUNTAINEER It Pays To Give The Land What It Needs, Says Grover J. Abel , By Grover Abel, Pigeon Township. My line of work is farming. When I began work on the farm as my own, it wasin poor state of cultivation. So I began studying my soil and its needs and found the three main constituents to build up soil nitrogen, phosphate, and potash. I found by using lime and phosphate, most land will pro duce clover and other legumes; then with crop rotation and on some types of soils and crops ap ply potash. Then I don't worry that land will feed me and itself. I never hesitate to buy what my land needs, regardless of my finan cial condition. Before we had soil building practices, I bought twenty tons of lime at $4.90 per ton; so last year I took nineteen tons on my farm payment. For the past four years I have been using lime and phosphate as a demonstration on pastures. I can tell it is thinning out are old broomsedge. I find clover and I lespedeza taking its place. I think j it is wonderful to hold our old hills until we can get something better. I consider livestock one of the most important things on the farm I feed them what I grow on the farm and it is returned to the land, therefore, building up my soil and bringing in a cash income, too, I have a small herd of Hereford cattle; I am proud of my two pure bred cows and two bull calves. intend to improve my cattle as fast as I can. Now I want to praise our county agents. There are no nner or more competent men. They have been so much help to me. Their good work is to be seen all over the county. PLANTS!
