Contour Plowing Recommended For paving Top Soil Explaining soil and water con servation practices which farm ers of Morrow county may carry out with assistance under the 1949 Agricultural Conservation I program, R. S. Thompson,-chair-' man of the county ACP commit ! tee, said that contour farming : will do much to save soil and water on sloping tilled land. "Furrows on the level even tho the land is ?;teep," was the sim ple way Mr. Thompson explained contouring. Contouring means carrying out tillage operations such as disking, weeding, har rowing, and seeding around the hillsides instead of up and down the slope. Practical application of con tour farming usually calls for contouring and strip cropping, sometimes terracing, he points !out. A stripcropping system pro vides definite contour guide lines .for the farming operations. Once i the farm is set up with these 'contour guide lines either with terraces or contour strips the farming operations can be carried on year after year on the con itour. Many farmers find farming BACK FROM SALEM Louis Lyons of the Heppner Photo Studio returned Sunday from Salem where he spent about 10 days photographing members of the House and Senate. He re ports that the legislators have reached the point where they are speculating on closing time of the session, having formed a pool wherein someone will take home some extra pay, should he name the day, the hour and even the minute when the 1919 session ends. Try a G-T Want Ad for results. easier and more economical where the land is laid out on the contour. But the real purpose and value of contouring, the chair man explains, is in the topsoil saved and the moisture held in the ground for the growing of crops. Contoured furrows form a small dam which prevents the water from flowing down the slope. The moisture soaks Into the soil for future use of the crop and the topsoil is not washed away. Con tour farming is one of the effect ive methods of checking sheet erosion. The chairman states that as sistance provided under the 1949 Agricultural Conservation pro gram can be used to help cover part of the extra cost of setting up a contour system on the farm. This assistance averages about half the out-of-pocket cost. 'ts BRIGHTEN UP TIME Spring Housecleaning Tirhe is "Brighten-Up Time" with General Electric Lamps.
