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.

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- LOUISE EVANS, County Administrative Of¬ ficer, Dade County A. C. A. Ninth Grade News By Bobby Douglas News comes to us like elec¬ tricity—a great shock! Geraldine Gray and Christine Neal are honoring Ruby Neal with a birthday party Saturday, night.

Rumors are flying that Cyn¬ thia Moore is lonesome since Bud Tatum is going on vacation. We hear that Mary Chambers Herschel Pettyjohn are go¬ ing to the Halloween party to¬ gether. So we hear that Martha Gos¬ and Clyde Wallin are doing good. All the girls are crazy about new junior boy, Carl Harris, none of them have had any so far.
