McBRYAR BROTHERS TRENTON, GEORGIA c4 ; | BROWN BROTHERS New England, Georgia / LIVE STOCK AND PERMANENT PASTURE Within the past 25 years there has bee n considerable changes in North Georgia as to cattle raising and especially the pastures to take care of these cattle. I well remember when we did not have any pure bred cattle, and today more of the small farmers have a few and seem to be taking a great interest in building up a herd along with their pastures. it is also found, especially in our county, that we can have pastures that will take care of a large number of cattle 10 months in the year. We have learn¬ ed this from sowing several different varieties of grass that will furnish a permanent pasture. In fact we have experimented with 9 different varieties of grass, namely, Rye Grass, Orchard grass, red top, white clover, lespedeza, blue grass, Dallas grass, bermuda grass and crimson clover, which has proven to be very successful in furnishing an almost all year round pasture. We believe it to be profitable from many angles to build our soil up and more especially to realize something off the land that would be impossible to get any benefit from, if it had to be cultivated in row crops. It would give the small fanner, if he would watch and not overstock his farm, a nice income from his cattle as well as his row crops. From the standpoint of making money the pasture is the main object. We can not hope to raise fat cattle with poor pastures. Of course, I feel we should have pure bred sires crossed with grade cows Lecause they do better on rough grazing land. Just to make my point clear, take 20 cows of this type and raise 20 calves, at our present market value, that weigh 500 pounds average in early Fall would weigh as a whole 10,000 pounds at 25 cents per pound would be $2500.00 from March to the first of No vember. This can be done on 60 acres of good pasture land with a cost, after sowing, of $10.00 worth of salt. It is very necessary to keep plenty of salt where they can get it and plenty of water, which most of us have. It would cost around $17.50 per acre to sow this land and $5 per acre to prepare for sowing or a total of $1350.00 for a pasture that will last for several years if you let it get one year’s growth before pasturing too hard. So let s sow more pastures and raise better cattle for the sake of our county and our families. * . A Ulir 4-H A U A! UllU L Ilf OrK I IT _______ By: Beatrice Williams & Mickey Blevins Being so interested in 4-H Club work we feel that everyone in Dade County should know and understand what our 4-H Clubs are doing in order to meet the goals which have been set up in the agricultural program for 1949. 4-H - -- Club work is w a a part pal U UJ of the Agricultural Extension Ser- vice, designed to benefit the farm families all over the United States. The main objective of the 4-H Club work is to teach the rural boys and girls from the ages of 10 to 20 the most practical way of Agricultural and Homemaking practices. Not only does it help us to develop into public spirited leaders, but it also trains us to beebme good citizens. Of course, we all want to become great leaders somedav and we are certainly anxious to be good citizens; therefore, we feel that 4-H Clubs alj over the nation are working together to¬ ward this accomplishment. In working toward one of the goals in the agricultural nro gram, we have a poultry and pig j chain V, ~ i _ sponsored __________ I 1 by the 1« Georgia Power Company and the Farm Bureau. This is a plan to help the 4-»H Club members raise their chickens and pigs on a scientific basis. In the poultry chain the is given a certain num- of chickens to raise, whereby I returns returns twelve twelve pullets pullets in in the the These are sold in order to new baby chickens for the year. The pig chains oper¬ in much the same manner that one pig has to be return- Lions Club Supports Agricultural Program By: Jules A. Case, Pres. , The Dade County i Lions o Club v<uu celebrates their fifteenth anni- versary of service to Dade Coun- ty this year. ! Lionism is founded on the en- during principal of service to others. For this reason we members of the Dade County Lions Club look forward with confidence to the future of our organization. The farmer who produces food and fibre also Anders a service to others in giving them some- thing they would not have had but for his efforts. If he does not reduce the fertility of hLs sod by so doln S. he too can look ~------ --- ed from the first litter. We, as 4-H Club members, de- s * re and ex Pe ‘------ c t our communities to stand behind us and back us up in our work With the co¬ - °.P eration , of the leaders in Dade c ' ounty our dub work can ex-' . pand more & more until we feel tbat , tbe agricultural program cannot be complete without the help of the 4-H Club. But we, as boys and Sirls, cannot carry on this work alone. We must have su PP° r t from our families and other leaders. | Along with other practices we learn something of farm and home management by keeping accurate records in our club pro¬ jects. This enables us to carry on our work in a business-like and profitable manner. To meet the recreational goal set up in the county plan of work, our clubs plan social • wherein we meet 1- to _ play _■»___________ games, both old and new. We would like to extend to the people of Dade County a cordial invitation i to come to our socials. If you enjoy them, let us know so that w ° can all work together toward a better and bigger recreational program. program Remember our 4-H Club motto is to “Make The Best Better” and with the help of every one of YOU, we can certainly have better 4- H ClUba? to the future with confidence The farmers of this country, and this means we farmers in Dade County, can render a very great service to the future gen- erations by doing the things necessary so as to leave the land we use better than we found It. The Dade County Lions Club advocates the conservation of our soil in Dade County and the 1 - storation of this soil to greater fertillty which will mean a hap- P ier and more prosperous people We would like to express our a PP riciation to the editor of the Dads c °unty Times for this farm edition and for the gener- bel P s* 1 * 5 bas always given the things which are bene " to the farmers of Dade CRISMAN Up-To-Date Line of Hardware 1.511 Chattanooga.
