This is brought about due to the fact that it requires very little labor and care as compared to other crops. Permanent pasture will last for many years if given proper care and there is no expense of preparing the soil each year at harvest time, since the cows harvest it themselves. Permanent pasture does not require so much fertilizer as land in cultivat ed crops. The following farmers have seeded pastures during the week of October 10: U. C. Caddy of New Hope com munity; Clarence Turner of Bethel community, and Carroll Williams of Hertford community. Henry J. Bragg, soil surveyor for the Soil Conservation Service, is spending considerable time in the county during October mapping the soils of farmers who have indicated that they are interested in having a soil conservation plan worked out on their farms. A number of farmers in the county are having the soils on their farms analyzed which indicated their inter est in using the proper amount and correct analysis of fertilizer for their various crops. During the month of October two farm conservation plans were deliv ered to Guy Webb of the Durants Neck community. In the past month farm conserva tion plans were written on the farms of the following farmers: H. H. Cad dy of New Hope community, Leroy Nixon of the Chapanoke community, T. W. Nixon and Lewis Smith of the Winfall community, and Susie Taylor of the New Hope community. Nathan Trueblood of the Chapanoke community has had considerable sur veying done on his farm with the idea in mind of improving the drainage system. During the past three or four months a number of farmers in the county have realized a great loss in their crops due to a great extent from the failure of water to get out of the land fast enough or poor drainage. The Soil Conservation Technicians will work with any farmer in the county in improving the drainage on his farm. There is no cost to the far mer for this service.
