Conservation Program
Ready for Farmers
The 1947 agricultural conserva
tion program hai been set up and
is now beginning to get under
way, is was announced a few
days ago by J. G. Watts, chair
man of the Columbia county agri
cultural conservation association.
A handbood describing the
program for this year And the
practices offered, together with
their rates of payment, has been
prepared by the county office and
will be sent to the farmers of
the county during the month of
February. Mr. Watts points out
that each farmer should study this
handbook very thoroughly and
plan his own conservation pro
gram on his farm accordingly.
Payments are being offered for
the completion of 33 different
conservation practices this year.
One of the important practices
which practically every farmer
should take advantage of is the
application of fertilizers, mainly
lime and phosphate. The farmer
may place his own order for lime
at the time he signs a farm plan.
This lime will be delivered in
sacks or delivered and spread in
bulk if the farmer so desires for
a cost of between three to four
dollars per ton depending on the
distance from the lime plant. De
liveries will be made on orders
of six tons or more. The balance
of the cost is paid through the
conservation program.
This is
an opportunity no farmer can af-
ford to miss.
*
For phosphate, a payment of
4*4 cents per pound of available
P2o5 will be made; however, the,
farmer must purchase the phos
phate himself directly from the
dealer and save his receipts until
the end of the year.
Other important practices in
this year’s program include pay
ment for the construction of open
or tile drainage ditches. The pay
ments are 8c a cubic yard of
earth moved or 50 per cent of
cost, whichever is smaller, for
open ditches, and 80 cents per rod
for tile or 3*4 per board foot
for lumber.
Payment is also made for im
proving grazing land by several
practices which are offered, in
cluding
the
development
of
springs, seeding approved pas
ture mixtures, constructing stock
trails, and building fences.
Another important practice is
weed control. Payment is being
offered for the use of 2,4d, so
dium chlorate, borax, and clean
cultivation for the control of
weeds.
Mr. Watt3 brings out that these
are only a few of the practices
being offered. Meetings will be
held in February in the various
communities for the purpose of
taking sign-ups of farmers wish
ing to" take part in 1947. These
dates wjll be announced in the
near future.
Any one wishing information
about the 1947 program is asked
to come to these meetings or con
tact the county office in St.
Helens, where any questions will
be answered and detailed specifi
cations on how these practices
should be carried out will be fur
nished.
One thing to remember is that
a farm plan must be filed in the
