FROM
GRASS FED
BEEF CATTLE

With the curtailment of cotton and
tobacco acreage, new areas are %releas-
ed for planting to pasture grasses
Such grasses will furnish grazing for
beer cattle and give an added income
to landowners.
"In one of the tests which we made
with beef cattle in eastern North Car
DINA this past summer, we found that
an ordinary pasture of carpet grass,
lespedeza and white clover paid the
owner excellent returns through the
grazing of beef CATTLE" says L. 1.
Case, animal husbandman at State
College. "E. E. Bell of Jones county

Elementary feed of any kind gained
1880 pounds. This amounts to 269
pounds an acre. At five cents a pound,
this is worth $685."
In other words, says Mr.. Case: the
owner received $13.45 an acre for
the grazing Of his pasture for three
months. There are thousands of acres
Of land in all parts of North Caro-
lima which may be utilized in this
way. Particularly will the eastern
farmer be interested in planting pas

he must reorganize his farm throwing
large areas into one farm and quit
the man and one mule system of
cash cropping which has brought him
to bankruptcy.

Eauding Prosperity Loan Idea,
CARRIER Urges Away Paved
Highways Be Constructed
BY NJ. C. CARRIER
Republican Representative in
CONGRESS from Oklahoma

The most important problem Of
today is the most economic dis
tribution of products for the most
profitable market. The country
is IS years behind the times in
its economic market system. The
existing marketing system, espe-
cially with reference to farm
products, is thu .nost wasteful OF
all methods yet clinging to our
advanced system of production.
Five billion dollars (amount
suggested by William Randolph
Hearst in his prosperity loan pro
posaD could be borrowed by the
Government as advantageously at
the present time as we could rea"
sonably expect within the near
future.
Two Projects Proposed
It could be used in the solution
Of the problems growing out Of a
more economic distribution SyS-
tenn and at the same time give
the needed employment to labor
in a sufficient degree to take up
the existing unemployment.
I propose two projects. namely:
"A double-way paved freight and
passenger highway from New
York to Los Angeles and from the
Canadian border down to the
Gulf through the Midwest produc-
ing section of the country; the
second to quadruple the work now
being carried on, in the opening
up Of a 9-foot channel in the
Mississippi River to St. Paul and
in channelization for barge navi-
cation of the Missouri River to
Omaha and the Arkansas River
to Tulsa, Okla.
Air Line Four Ways
These projects would effectively
deal with the major problem of
economic distribution, namely:
The expense in the transporta.
tion of products to market.
The double-way paved highway
for freight and passenger traffic
would be ap air line East and
West and North and South.
First, it would give much needed
employment to the unemployed,
second. the double-way freight
highway would be built with suf-
ficient weight in construction to
be used for the national defense
in the immediate shifting of
forces and armament, and third,
in the more economic distribu-
ton of products throughout the
country. The same might be
said in support of the channel
tzation of our inland waterways.
Would Offer Bills
! believe the immediate mate
rial benefits to be derived from
the immediate prosecution of
these projects would fully war
rant the judicious investment of
the tax moneys of the people.
If Mr.. Hearst will assure me
Of his support of the above pro-
jeets I will prepare and introduce
bills providing for their introduc-
tion at the next Congress.

was plenty of water from the tumbling water
falls, and Jana knew the edible plants, nuts
and fruits growing in profusion along the deep
ravine. Game, too, was abundant and when
they needed meat Jasons thirty thirty brought
it down. So the beautiful little savage and

for the land of zoram without suffering any
real hardship.
