FARMER: > Are they well established? Could you suffer loss? T here are many reasons why ow nership can be challenged. Take the case of the Thom psons.* A house in the m iddle mps of their block was sold. T he new owners obtained a Com m onw ealth Insured Title. It later developed that a street w idening program years before had taken five feet from the T h om pson’s corner lot, a change not recorded in their deed. O ther lots had been gauged in relation to the two corner ones, leaving five feet of orphan land in the center of the block to which no one actually held title. . » v A new survey was made to clear up the title to the strip. A deed was obtained and the suit was paid for by Com m onw ealth. Everyone benefited because one family had a Com m onw ealth Insured Title. Make sure your property lines are protected. Ask your experienced realtor, at: trney o r banker about Commonwealth Insured Title. We’re not trying to tell you how to run your business. We only want to remark that w e’ve often noticed, w hile d rivin g through the country, that cows seem to graze where the grass grows^greenest. Maybe th ey’re not as sm art as horses, but they do know good grazing ’ ,- Some of our friends have been telling u s how they keep their grass greener, and how they increase crop yields g e n e r a l l y , They’re doing it, tfiey tell us, through CONSERVATION FARM ING. T hey’re testing their soil to see what It requires. They use lime where needed, phosphates and other fertiliders. cover crops, and erosion control p ra ctices.. . .all of which add up to more and better feed, more and better milkT and richer soil for future farm ing. Maybe you need more conservation practices than you’re carrying out now. If so, it’s to your advantage to see your local Agricultural - Conservation Committee for information on how the Agricultural Conservation Program can assist. • Chairman of the local County Agricultural Conservation (A A A ) Committee is Wallace L.
