One-third of North Carolina, or 82
counties lying between the middle
Coastal Plain and the Blue Ridge
Mountains, is now included in the 10
active soil conservation districts.
W. D. Lee, extension soil conser
vationist of State College, explained
that each of these districts was or
ganized as a voluntary cooperative
move on the .part of land-owners to
control erosion and build up the soil.

the use of good conservation prac
tices. During the first half of this year,
activity in these districts has been
varied as yell as extensive. Much
educational work was conducted to
enable interested farmers to receive
definite information on the district
program. In all, 157 meetings were
held with a total attendance of 5,906.
Fifteen soil conservation tours
were conducted by county and home
agents of the State - College Exten
sion Service to farms having com
plete programs in cooperation with
the districts. At each stop, the
operator of the larm led tne group
over his place, explaining each part
of the program and how he establish
ed the various practices.
CCC assistance was given without
cost to those farmers within work
range of one of these camps. The
labor was used in establishing prac
tices which normally are beyond the
resources of the average farmer.
Such work has included terrace
outlet construction, building meadow
strips or vegetated waterways, gully
control measures, timber stand im
provement, reforestation, and relo
cating fences. In the first- half of
1940, fanners in the ten districts re
ceived 138,752 man-days of CCC
labor.

Tear Around Income
From Cotton Crop
Farmers and livestock raisers are
not the only ones who benefit from
the North Carolina's new agriculture
that blends livestock production with
the growing of cotton.
'Cotton picking time," the South's
traditional herald of better business
conditions in towns and cities, as well
as income for farmers and workers,
is beginning to have a new meaning,
say State College Extension workers.
With the blending of livestock and
cotton, farm income and farm pur
chasing power are spread over twelve
months of the year, to the benefit of
the entire community. Fall business
still continues to reflect the major
importance of lint cotton and cotton
seed as dependable cash crops; but
butter and eggs, beef, lamb, pork and
poultry sales are contributing to a
steady farm employment, farm re
venue, and to the trade of merchants
throughout the year.
The use of cottonseed illustrates
how "blended" farming benefits the
entire community. Sales of cotton
seed, to the oil mills provide ready
cash in the late summer and fall, as
well as employment at the mill. Then,
by obtaining a supply of cottonseed
feed products, cotton growers lay
the foundation for future income
during the winter, spring and sum
mer. Fed in balancer rations with farm
grains and roughages, cottonseed
meal and huljs are converted into
varied sources of income. For in
stance, dairy cows transform the
feeding nutrients into milk and but
ter for year 'round cash sales. In
feedlots, and on cotton farms, beef
is produced for home use, and for
sale. Farm flocks of sheep may also

convert cottonseed meal into lambs
and wool clips; while' the efficient
protein furnished by cottonseed meal
now aids in the economical production
of firm pork from farm hogs.
In these ways, as well as through
the fertility restored to the soil
through the feeding of livestock and
the direct use of cottonseed meal as a
fertilizer, cotton contributes to im
proved agricultural and business con
ditions. With the blending of live
stock and cotton farming, this con
tribution is not limited to the au
tumn, when the economic importance
of cotton is generally recognized, but
extends throughout the entire year,
from one cotton picking to the next.
