Silicosis is a disease of the lungs

SOIL CONSERVATION
(iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinii
I think I’ll quit saying anything
about the rain. The more I say the
more it rains.
Recently assisted Julian Cawth
on in developing a soil conserva
tion plan on his newly acquired
farm near Perry. The farm was
formerly owned by District Coop
erator Richard Ogletree. Richard
moved down the road aways and
is now operating his Dad’s farm.
Doing right well growing truck
crops under irrigation on this
farm too. Os course the Good Lord
is doing the irrigating for him
now but some of those dry spells
next summer and fall and it’s an
other year.
Richard and I took a look at
some of the slash pine his Dad
planted back around 1940 and they
have come of age to thin and to
WHY ACCEPT LESS?

We Pay 3 Percent

Up to SIO,OOO
loan association
yield up a harvest of some pulp
wood and a lot of fence posts. We
have a lot of 1940 plantings over
the county that need the same
treatment. If we could manage to
get them cut and treated we could
dispense with buying cypress fence
posts from far off places. Some
test 1 read about said that a creo
sotod sap pine post had a average
life of 15 years. That would je
considered a very good post. The
. ather new treatment is said
to be very effective too. In this
treatment you mix a certain a
mount of Penta Preservative with
so many gallons of kerosene or a
similar petroleum solvent, and cold
soak the posts for 24 or 48 hours
in a homemade treating vat.
Either way, posts to be treated
should be cut in winter or early
spring, peeled and air-seasoned
until dry before treating. Shh
. . . yep it’s raining again outside
right now, and since it’s too wet
to plow we might as well cut fence
posts.
The next six weeks will tell the
story in our pasture planting pro
gram for this season. Now is the
time to plant them all . . . Kudzu
(except seed). Sericea Lespedeza,
Bermuda, Dallis and Bahia grass,
and the annual lespedezas. They
need to be up and growing before
the Spring droughts hit.
