FARMERS URGED
TO REPORT ACREAGE
Those who have not already
reported to C. C. Brooks, County
Administration officer, the acre
ages planted on the farm for the
past five years, are asked to
come by the office and make
this report as early as is con
venient. This is important as it
will be used in setting up the
1950 cotton and wheat allot
ments.
“Also report any soil-building
practices you may have carried
out,” Mr. Brooks said. “For your
convenience we will remain open
each Saturday through June and
July.”
MRS. JONES BUYS
REGISTERED JERSEY
Mrs. Milton D. Jones, of Lyer
ly, has purchased the registered
Jersey female, Fillpail Sultan
Fern. The animal comes from
the herd owned by C. C. McCon
nell Jr.. LaFayette.
The purchase adds to the
steadily growing number in this
area. Dairymen buy Jerseys be
cause of the high quality of the
milk they produce.
Purebred Jerseys are register
ed by The American Jersey Cat
tle Club which has its national
headquarters in Columbus. O.
Several programs are available
through The American Jersey
Cattle Club to help breeders get
the most profit from their Jer
seys.
