ACP BACKS UP HIGH
LIiVEL PRODUCTION
■ ■■ ■>
& signing tsp in the 1951
Agricultural Conservation
Program, farmers of Yan
cey County should fit con
servation, practices to the
i high level production called
i for to meet defense needs,
says W. M- Hensley, Chair
man of the County PMA
Committee. ACP, he ex
plains, provides farmers
with an effective means of
increasing per acre yields
and at the same time pro
tecting the future produc
tivity of the land. He
points to the tremendous
| increase in production dur
ling World War II as evi-j
[dence of the effectiveness
of the Nation’s efforts to
step up farm production.
|“Farm-by-farm and acre
i by-acre, conservation prac
tices not only protect the
soil erosion and depletion
but they build up the land’s
capacity to produce.”
The chairman urges that
when a farmer sits down
with his PMA committee
man to plan the conserva
tion practices to be earned
out under the 1951 ACP he
at the same time should go
over the “Production Gui
des” to see which crops he
can produce in line with
the guides'. Then he should
fit his ACP conservation
practices into that pattern
of production.
This, says the chairman,
is in line with the state
ment of the Secretary of
Agriculture when he an
nounced the Nation’s Pro
duction Guides for 1951:
“Production guides are de
signed to help farmers plan
their crops in line with the
over-all needs—turning out
the highest possible balan
ced production this year,
and at the same time pro
tecting their resources for
the future.”
The Agricultural Con
servation Program will
help farmers do just that,
Mr Hensley said.

FORDS BEST'
# The "in'»" and "out's" of your Ford are ancient history to us. It stands
[ to reason that folks who service Fords day in and day out will know CjsL 31
. how to care for Fords better than anyone else. And, because our ,t Irast*
future is wrapped up in the pleasure your Ford gives you today, it f
stands to reason that we'll use our many Ford service advantages to m** \l . "Jm
save you time and money. It certainly makes sense that no one else can do ' if
this as well .. . because no one else can offer the 4-way oeneflts of ours yk '
