ASC NEWS
In a recent meeting of the
Dade County ASC Committee it
was determined that the 1957
Agricultural Conservation Pro¬
gram should be re-opened for
the period July 15, 1957 to Aug¬
ust 15, 1957, to allow producers
to file Requests for Federal cost-
isharing for practises to be com¬
pleted on their farms this fall-
practices which may be com¬
pleted this fall include: aplica-
tion of ground limestone, estab¬
lishment of a permanent pas¬
ture, establishment of rotation,
cover which includes the estab¬
lishment of a cover of alfalfa,
planting trees, dams for livestock
water, sod waterways, protective
cover, terraces, irrigation
and establishment of winter
cover crops.
The basic purpose of ACP is to
achieve necessary conservation
from our soil and water resour¬
ces. The program is entirely vol¬
untary. Any farmer who
he can do the needed conserva¬
tion job on his farm without
aid of the limited funds avail¬
able is urged to do so.
Each farm operator should
carefully studfr the conserva¬ cost¬
tion practices on which
sharing is most needed. In do¬
ing so, we hope he will make full
use of any conservation plan
which he may have developed for
his farm. '

4-H ers Play Indian
At Rock Eagle Camp
Today, ancient Indians, who
ir.lledgedly built the Rock Eagle
mound near Eatonton, wouldn’t
know the place, but chances aie
good that the thousands of
Georgia “Indians” camping there
this summer will never forget it.
Forty-seven Dade County
‘braves and maidens” were
among the 900 who were lucky
enough to spend a week of camp¬
ing at their sprawling, but com¬
pletely equipped and modern,
State4-H Club Center.
The Indian motif, inspired
! the historic role the redman
Georgia an*' Rock Eagle
was expressed in the
of the 4-H campers into
famous Indian tribes —
kees, Shawnees and Muscogees.
Each tribe had its
chief and its pretty princess who
shared honors in conducting
tribal councils held nightly
around ceremonial campfires.
Special songs and yells in¬
stilled in te members of each
tribe a tribal loyalty and
which in turn inspired coopera¬
tive efforts of each member in
tribal competition. Every
during the week is scored and
the tribe compiling the most
points for the cleanest
best class attendance and
activities wins the tribal shield
of “Rock Eagle Nation.”
Interest groups included
crafts, outdoor cookiing, fun with
foods, party games, swimming
