There is an old saying, "You can’t do much about the weather.” But you can do a great deal about what the weather does to yoiur land. Rain can bring relief after drouth and is worth that million dollars —or it can be a savage enemy that "dashes off with grit in its teeth and tears dowii our soil like a billion furious buzz saws.” ... Water that "walks downhill’” is your ally in in creasing the production of your land. And one secret of handling rainfall properly is "farming on the level”—by strip cropping, contour plowing, terrac ing. Cover crops, grassed waterways, dams and farm ponds also help control the destructive power of rain. Then you hold the rain where it falls. Surface run-off is slowed down to the point where it doesn’t erode your topsoil away. And as your water "walks Sent Your Letter Yet?

Swift & Company, Qlucago g, jjj SZopatti | SReci/te fob Easter Ham _ The mellow flavor of ham rates it one of the most popular of meats. Glaze your ham with honey, marmalgfle or maple syrup to save sugar. Place the ham, fat side up, on rack in uncovered pan. No water needed, as the fat will baste the ham naturally. Bake in a moderately slow oven until tender. Three to four hours will be enough. Garnish the platter with pickled peaches or apri cots, or hot spiced orange slices. WHAT DO YOU KNOW! What is the meaning of the expression "fanning on the level”? With what groups of people must a meat pack ing company like Swift & Company co-operate to operate successfully? Who must earn a fair profit for the livestock and-meat industry to operate? Why is it important to make water "walk downhill”? Answers to these questions may be found in the vari ous articles which are printed elsewhere on this page. OUR CITY COUSIN CITY cousin DIDN'T SK 1 WHERE THE LITTLE BEE DID FLEE,.. gw downhill,” it soaks into the soil, makes plant food nutrients available to the roots of crops and, pene trating further, fills up nature’s great underground reservoirs. <• Water thus stored in the subsoil is the source of the wells and springs which supply homes and farms and ranches. For years this "water table” has been dropping very seriously in some sections. But where soil conservation has been practiced over large areas, the lowering of the "water table” has been a less serious problem.' Soil and water can never be di vorced in 'any good land management program. These two great resources are wed Ad for all time, and from their union comes the wealth of America’s agriculture and the prosperity of the nation. F. M. Simpson ± THE EDITOR'S COLUMN. In addition to being a business cor poration, Swift & Company is peo ple—62,000 folks like you and me who have Dooled their savings to build a business. These savings are invested in plants and equipment, in livestock and other raw materials, and in all the many things that make up Swift & „ Company. Without people there could be no business, no Swift & Company. There must be people (shareholders) to supply the capital; others (farmers and ranchers) to supply the raw materials; many thousands (employes) who work with their heads and hands for the com pany; and the millions of consumers who buy the meat and other products. The success of a business enterprise depends on how these various groups of people get along together. In other words, there must be goodwill and cooperation between the owners of Swift & Company and livestock producers, employes, and the company’s customers.' To maintain goodwill we know that Swift & Com <■ pany must: 1) pay fair prices for raw materials, in cluding livestock; 2) pay a good day’s pay for a good day’s work; 3) provide the money to keep plants and facilities efficient; 4) pay Federal, State and Municipal taxes; 5) earn a profit to give our owners a fair fetum on their invested savings. The management of Swift & Company recognizes this five-fold responsibility to the various groups of people who make our business. It is to their interest that we manage our business efficiently, that we earn a sufficient profit to let us — <*- people. continue contributing to the well-being of more and Agricultural Research Department Swift & Company UNION STOCK. YARDS CHICAGO 9, ILLINOIS WORTH THINKING ABOUT In view of the recent talk about the buttmeflg. ptofits, etc., of the meat packers, it’s worth remembering the basic economics of all businesses in this country. To be successful, any business must do four things —1) it must purchase its raw materials at prices com parable to the prices paid by its competitors; 2) through know-how, efficiency, good operating, it must manufac ture products of comparable quality at a manufacturing cost no higher than'that of its competitors; 3) in doing this, it must pay its workers wage rates comparable to the going wage-scale paid by others; 4) and it must sell its product at prices that a large part of the public is willing and able to pay. In the livestock-and-meat industry, this simply means that prices must be high enough to earn both cost and a decent profit for the livestock producer, the rqeat I packer and the retail merchant—and low enough to keep the great masses of people eating meat. Soda Bill Sex: . . . that the dairy business is mighty color ful—red cows eat green grass and brown hay to give white milk and yellow butter. . . . that the more a fellef works, the more work he finds to do. IN SCREW WORM INFECTION, an ounce of prevention is worth much more than a pound of cure. Every animal should be seen at least three times a week. Blood-stain<ki liquid oozing from a wound is an * indicating symptom of screw worm infestation. The Alabama Experiment Station recommends U. S. Smear 62 as the best remedy known for protecting wounds and for killing the worms. It should be applied twice a week. VEGETATION CLEARS POND WATERS by W. H. Irwin, Oklahoma A. & M. College Farm ponds that remain muddy alT year are unattractive, produce poorer fish crops and provide less appetizing water for stock than clear water ponas. x ney can De cieareu -— without injuring stock, thus increasing thf production of fish foods. Pond experiments in central Oklahoma showed that ponds receiving organic material have clear water. Ponds having vegetation on their bottoms when flooded have clear water for almost a year. Ponds ■ <• ceiving drainage from feedlots or barnyards have clear water except for periods after rainfall. Vegetat.^r, manure or commercial fertilizer placed in the p« tl settle soil particles from the water. Necessary quantities of materials needed vary, de- / pending upon the amount of mud in the water and amount of water entering the pond. Since vegetation -— on the pond bottom before flooding usually clears —— „ * water for the first year, a similar amount, when added, should clear it, for another year. Green vegetation is effective, but manure is preferable. Weeds should be cut on pastured areas to improve the pasture. If these cut plants are gathered and placed in the pond, an additional value (in improve ment of the pond) can be had from pasture mowing. Right
