Development of good permanent pasture on land not sats-
factory for cultivation not only gives excellent feed tor cattle
cheaply but puts into profitable production, land that otherwise
would have no value. Assistance is given by the A.C.A. for de-
veloping good pastures.

What shall we have to
eat this evening?
Good permanent pastures can
play an important part in the
conservation plans of Columbia
county farmers, says W. C. John­
son, chairman of the county agri­
cultural conservation association
committee.
These pastures conserve both
soil and water and provide large
amounts of feed for livestock, he
said. The pasture cover not only
holds the soil and retards water
runoff but pastures, if good, will
feed more livestock and less grain
will be required. This will de­
crease the cost of livestock pro-
durtion. Information on approved
pasture mixtures may be received
from the county agent’s office.
The agricultural conservation
program pays a part of farmers’
cost of reseeding worn-out land
and planting new pastures. Farm­
ers gain all the livestock fed off
this land and the government co­
operates in saving more of the
nation’s topsoil. This finally adds
up to more and better food and
improved health for everybody,
the chairman added.

receive help from the program as
the government’s share in this co­
operative conservation of land.
In addition, the program includes
practices that make more sure the
establishment of good pastures,
such as use of lime and phosphate,
which is a must to receive any
payment if the land needs it,
“'Pastures can be given a good
start this fall,” Chairman John­
son concluded. Farmers who have
signed up for but have not com­
pleted other practices and who
want to switch to pasture seed­
ing should get >ñ touch with us
in the county ACA office at St.
Helens immediately.”

Todly you line up for meat, bread, butter, nylons, shirts,

At times of peak traffic, telephone service is often slow,
