Smith, Jr., Meriwether county;
Clements, Banks county;
Oscar G. Hartley. Clay county;
THE COVINGTON NEWS
and Fred Peterson, Montgomery
county. Mr. Gannon also an
nounced that a similar contest will
be held this year.
Woodland pasture is being re
duced approximately 50 per cent,
which means that more than 22,-
700 acres of woodland that was
formerly subject to damage by
grazing will now be devoted to
the production of a timber crop.
Improved pasture, on the other
hand, is being increased by 59 per
cent, to provide more than 17,400
acres of additional permanent pas
ture, which will be supplemented |
by an increase of more than 21
000 acres, in permanent hay.
In addition to protecting exist-!
ing forests from damage by graz
frig, these farmers will also in
crease their woodland acreage by
16.i per cent, or 21.300 acres, by
reforestation of steep and severely
eroded land.
Other land use changes reflect
ed in supervisor reports in ten
districts include small increases in
orchard plantings and in areas
planted to types of erosion-resist
ing vegetation which will also
provide food and cover for wild
life on the farms.
Plans for these farms also in
clude establishing contour strip j
cropping on 88,700 acres, construe- j
tion of broad channel terraces on
75,000 acres, and establishment of
approved rotations on 130,000
acres.
The best feed for baby chicks is!
a good commercial starting mash.!
It contains protein, minerals, vit- ;
amins, and other nutrients needed !
by the chciks.
Don’t forget the Georgia Baby
Chick and Egg Show which will j
be held at Rome, March 21-22-23.
