Trevathan, Work Unit Conservationist Surry county farmers did a better job of contour cultivation during 1943 than they had been doing in previous years. Many farmers are also learning how to break terraced land for terrace maintenance. Mr. E. J. Smith of the Round Peak community, is taking advantage of the approved method of breaking land to com plete the construction of his ter races. With proper breaking of land after terrace lines are staked, a farmer can actually construct very satisfactory terraces within a few years just by following recommended practices in break ing land. The most satisfactory system of breaking terraced land is to first break the terrace ridge separately by bedding to the top of the terrace ridge, making the last furrow in the bottom of the terrace flow line. The next step is to start with another furrow parallel with the terrace about eight to twelve feet or more up hill from the terrace channel and back furrow on this until this breaking also reaches the terrace channel with the last furrow thrown up hill from the channel. The remaining area between the broken area and the next terrace above should then be broken as a separate land. By changing the position of the back furrow above the channel from year to year, no ill effects will result from this method of plowing. Many of the Surry county farmers who are now cooperating in the Tri-Creek Soil Conserva tion District program are now following this system of plowing with entire satisfaction. By fol lowing this system of plowing, the farmers have found that the ter race channel gets wider from year to year and requires no other maintenance practices. BACK THE ATTACK — WITH WAR BONDS! HEAVY BETTER Riding back to his camp after a leave in London, a colored mem ber of the A. E. F. got into a poker game with some British soldiers.
