Soil Conservation
By Hugh Clark
SOIL CONSERVATION
Terracing as a soil conserva¬
tion measure is very important,
but equally important is the
problem of terrace outlets. Too
many times, terraces are built
that do not have adequate pla¬
ces in which to empty.
Unless water through a ter¬
race system empties into woods
or a perenial vegetation, terrac¬
ing the field actually hasn’t
done much good.
Fields where neither woods or
a well sodded area of grass will
be the outlet, an outlet channel
should be planned several
months before and well estab¬
lished with vegetation before the
terraces are built- Unless the
outlets are established first, ter¬
race water going into the chan¬
nel will cut a ditch in a short
time and will be difficult to
control.
For terace outlet channels on
land not too steep, Burmuda
grass sod or a good stand of
sericea lespedeza is fine. On
the steeper channels, kudzu is
cne of the better plants.

THE DADE COUNTY TIMES, TRENTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1947.
Avans News Notes
Our hearts are light this morn¬
ing for at last work has started
on our permanent school build¬
ing, under the supervision of
Mr. Henry McKaig. We appre¬
ciate very much Mr. McKaig’s
help in getting prices and mak¬
ing estimates on cost of the new
building. None of us realized
just what our school meant to us
until we lost it, like all other
communities there, was not
enough interest taken among
most the parents. Realizing
what we do now, once we get)
her back, we will almost worship
her. Of course there are many
things we need in regards to
school but little by little these
we will get.
We are indeed proud of our
P. T. A. This organization has
meant much to our school. In
the past two years we have raised
and spent about $3,000.00 on
Lunch room equipment, besides
a number of other things that
went up in smoke- We believe
we have one of the best equiped
Lunch rooms now in the county,
including our good cooks, who
serve really delicious meals.
Miss Helen Self who is teach¬
ing Home Nursing to our senior
class will also start an adult
class tonight at) the Barracks
We are indeed grateful to the
Red Cross, for this service. It
will be a great help to each one
who attends.
Also we will have our first
Home Demonstration meeting
this week, under the manage¬
ment of Miss Patty Boswell. We
have missed our little club so
much, and though several of our
older members are gone, we hope
to have new ones in their pla¬
ces.
Another meeting we are look¬
ing forward to is one of our
Farm Organization to be held
in the near future with Mr. Sid
Chandler, State Extension Ser¬
vice as main speaker. Since the
good ladies have promised re¬
refreshments, it should be a
doubly good meeting.
Everyone remember these
meetings they will help you.
Don’t expect someone to give
you a written invitation every
time Its your place to keep up
with these things as well as any
one else. They are sent here and
put on for the benefit of every,
one and if you do not get these
benefits it is your own fault and
no one else’s. So watch your
paper and when you see an an¬
nouncement just take off and
come see what’s happening its
for you. And not last nor least,
but how about going to church
on Sunday? That’s the one
thing above all others. If you
don’t go to church somewhere
else, come to Woodlawn. Every¬
one is invited to all services.
There are also services on Sat¬
urday nights. Let’s try more
praying about things, and less
gossiping.
Of course we will all remember
the Halloween Carnival Saturday
night November 1- See you all
at the Barracks Saturday night.

Peanut Quota Vote;
Winter Cover Crops
Production of peanuts Increas¬
ed sharply during World War II
—got up to one million tons a
year, and has remained at that
high figure- Wartime require¬
ments were great, with nearly a
third of the crop going to our
boys overseas in the form of
salted peanuts, peanut candy,
and the like. But today, that
big, extra military demand is
gone. That’s the big reason
why a downward adjustment in
production next year is being
sought by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture through the use
of marketing quotas and acreage
allotments.
The Department of Agricul¬
ture has set a national market¬
ing quota of 760,000 tons for 1948,
which is considered to be more
than enough to assure growers
an adepuate market and con¬
sumers plenty of peanuts in 1948
and 1949. This quota represents
about 2,359,372 acres. Georgia’s
share, pased on what the state
has produced in the past, is 782,-
838 acres. But before these
marketing quotas can be put in¬
to effect, they must be approved
by a two-thirds vote of the pea¬
nut growers themselves.
A referendum in which the
growers will determine whether
they want quotas on the 1948
and 1949 crops, will be held on
December 9th this year. The
County Committee of the Dade
County Agricultural Conserva¬
tion Association will announce
later the voting place and oth¬
er information concerning this
referendum.
If peanut growers approve the
quotas, 90 percent-of-parity loans
will be available on the 1948 crop
peanuts grown within the farm
acreage allotments. Peanuts
produced in excess of the farm
acreage allotment will be subject
to penalty if marketed. But if
growers disapprove the quotas,
only the 1948 crop peanuts which
are sold for crushing for oil will
be eligible for price support, and
and at a rate approximately 45
percent of the parity price for
edible peanuts.
A limited supply of Hairy
Vetch, Austrian Winter Peas and
Common Ryegrass is now avail¬
able to farmers in Dade county
on the 1948 Purchase Order Plan
Any farm who has not already
taken up his 1948 Soil Building
alowance in Winter Legume seed
and who plans to-seed cover
crops this fall should call by the
AAA Office and request these
seeds immediately, as we won’t
be able to get any seed after
this supply is gone-

It was hard to tell for a while
who was going to get the most
votes Friday night, Bonnie or
Maxine Roberts, but Bonnie won
by a very close margin. She
will serve as Queen of the school

We are glad to have our same

teacher back this year. She un¬
organized the P. T. A. and it is
doing nice work helping to bring
the parents together in this com¬
munity. Mrs. Hurt our teacher
is president, Mrs. Flossie Chubb,
vice president, Mrs. Lorena Ro¬
berts treasurer, and Miss Ima
Ruth Clay Secretary.
Nell Francis Paris is the only
one in the seventh grade, and
she is working hard to finish
this year so she can go on to
high school.

esting story Friday, Why Every

It was enjoyed by all the 36 stu¬
dents present, and we want her
