We have been helping John
Loudenber, on Sand Mountain
make a basic plan fer his farm.
This basic plan will be based on
the capabilities of the soils on
the farm according to a soil
survey that has already been
made and the type farming he
plans to do. In Mr. Loudenber’s
case it will be general farming
which will include row crops,
cattle and he plans to reset
some cf his cut-over woods in,
pines after the cull hardwood
trees have been cleared off.

W. L. Fannin, at Rising Fawn, 1
has begun work on the addi¬
tional track of land he recently
purchased. He has been clean-
ing up hedge rows and creek
banks that will grow good grass
and make a much neater field
of pasture. Another of his im¬
mediate jobs he has planned
is to establish some wide, flat-
bottomed drainage ditches in a
large, almost level field to take
care of the water that comes
off some rather steep land bor¬
dering it. This field already has
a fair stand of bermuda grass
and lespedeza and should make
a good pasture after he adds
clover, rye grass and dallis
grass to it.
Mr. Frank Sells, at Wildwood,
is planning to build a nice,
large loafing barn for his dairy
herd that will permit his cows
to feed and stay cut of the bad
weather during the winter. He
also plans to make use of an
iron ore pit by constructing a
dam across it for a stock pond
in his pasture where there is
no water at present. .

has been kept since 1947 and
spies have been oonvicted of
passing information on this
subject to Russia.
Several scientists are very op-
tcmistic about this step toward
space travel and huge numbers
of ordinary people as well.
French scientists say that a
trip to the moon Ls only a mat¬
ter of money. A German voiced
the beliefs of scores of scientists
when he said, “All we need Is a
billion and we could go ahead
with building a space station
from which we could drive far¬
ther out into space..
Many others believe that
space travel is impossible and
against God’s will and they
have some good reasons. They
believe that God did not intend
for us to go to the moon or any
ether celestial body and will
thwart all plans to do so.
What do you think? In last
month’s essay contest, we had
no entries so this month we are
offering two prizes. One to the
best essay favoring the proba¬
bility of space travel in the
near future and the other to
the best essay denying space
travel in the near future.
