Farmers To Get
Land Maps
BY J. W. CALHOUN
Much land clearing for eulti
vaion and pastures is going on in
South Georgia. Since this opera¬
tion is expensive it will be wise
to study the capablity of the land
that is to be cleared to determine
if it will be a profitable venture.
It is quite obvious that much of
the land which has been cleared
should have remained in trees for
timber production.
Any farmer or land owner is el¬
igible for a land capability map
and appropriate guide sheets for
his farm. The land capability map
can be obtained by applying for e
Soil Conservation District farm
plan through the local Soil Conser¬
vation District. This map is the
basis for developing a Soil Con
nervation farm plan and is made
by a Soil Scientist working with
*be .Soil Conservation Service in
.
j cooperation with £>oii Conservation
Districts.

Jr rice supports Are
r
Giveil Oil Grain
According to Mr. R. F.
Chairman of Crawford County
PM A Committee, the price support
program on 1953 crop of oats and
wheat are as folows: The support
rate for oats in 98c per bushel
grading number 3 or better, and
interim wheat support rate of
$2.39 per bushel grading number
1.
Price supports are the purpose
of giving farmers an opportunity
to orderly market their crops with¬
out placing these commodities on
the market at one time, there¬
by depressng prices.
Mr. Hicks, states that any land
owner, landlord, tenant or share¬
cropper producing wheat and oats
in 1953 are eligible for price sup¬
port. There are three ways to take
advantage of the support rates.
Loans “Farm stored and Ware¬
house stored” can be made on oats
and wheat stored on the farm or
m approved warehouses or pur
chase agreements whereby produ
cers deliver grain to Commodity
Credit Corporation at support
rate. Loans are available to pro
ducers at time of harvest through
January 31, 1954. Loans will ma
ture April 30, 1954. Producers may
pay off loan and sell grain at any
time between the date of loan and
maturity date. Farm stored oats
an{ i wheat must be in storage at
l east thirty days prior to inspec
tion and sampling. Wheat and oats
must grade number 3 or better in
order to be eligible for price sup¬
port. Grain that is classed as feed,
mixed, weavily, smutty, ergety,
garlicky, bleached, thin or tough
are not eligible for price support.
Service charges for farm storage
loans is lc per bushel or a $3.00
minimum; warehouse storage is
one and one-half cent per bushel
$1,50 per minimum; purchase
one-half cent per bush
or $1.50 minimum. Loans will
interest at 4 percent per an
from date of disbursement.
sheets that apply to the land on j
an individual farm, is very help- I j
ful in planning the best land use
and treatment for each acre on the j
farm. If more land needs to be !
cleared for cultivation, the land
capability map indicates the best
land to clear If more land is need- .
ed for pasture, the area can be j
determined by studying the land J
capability map.
Land that has a hardpan, or is
very sandy, or is severely eroded
does not have as much tree and
brush growth on it as better land.
Therefore, it is often easier and
cheaper to clear iow productive
land than land with a higher ca¬
pacity and more productive capac¬
ity. I have seen this land that is
often easy to clear disappoint far¬
mers in its capability to produce,
resulting in the farmer saying,
“This land should never have been
cleared in the first place.” The land
capability map is an excellent
guide in avoiding such mistakes.
