Whut Holmes County
Formers Are Doing
In Soil Conservation
BY A. r. Carroll and r. J. Ross

Pat Barrett, of Lexington, has estab-
lished an excellent grazing program on
his farm at Coxburg. He improved his
permanent pasture last year by apply
ing 300 pounds of superphosphate and
500 pounds of lime per acre and by seed
ing to Dallas grass, white Dutch clover
and lespedeza.
He planted areas to white Dutch
clover and wild winter peas for seed
and is using these for supplementary
grazing. He harvested the peas last
summer and shocked the fines for his
cattle, which proved to be good hay.
He disc this field during the summer
and planted soy beans which were cut
for hay. Last fall he planted oats in
the wild winter peas and these oats and
peas are giving his cattle excellent
grazing. Also, the white Dutch clover
which he harvested for seed last sum
mer is furnishing good grazing. Not
only did Mr.. Barrett depend on these
two crops for his grazing, last fall he
planted oats, Italian rye grass, wild win
ter peas and crison clover on the land
which is to be planted to row crops in
the spring and these winter grazing
crops are furnishing good grazing. Mr..
Barrett states that he has fed his cattle
less this year than during any previous
year and they are all in better condi-
tion- He applied superphosphate to
these crops when they were seeded and
states that this mineral has caused the
crop to grew off much quicker Also
he states he is getting much more graz
ing from the early paintings than he is
from the late paintings. He plans to
seed oats, and wild winter peas in his
cultivated land during the last culti-
walton Of cotton this summer.
He states the hogs running loose on
his winter grazing has done great dam

AII-time Low Reached
In Mothers Deaths

An all-time low in deaths of mothers
was recorded in Mississippi last year,
said DR.. Virginia Howard, state maternal
and child health director, today. Accord
ing to State Board of Health figures,
the rate was AZ deaths of mothers to
every 1000 births. Mothers dying total
led 24S.
As part of the reason for this decline
DR.. Howard cited the longtime work
of the county health departments in the
state, all 62 of which hold, regular ma

He states that he got much better
seed bed.
The farmers who haye gotten the best
stands have prepared the land with a
disc or plow and harrow until it was
smooth. Then they ran a cultivator
over the land until it was very smooth
and planted the seed on top of the soil.
j. E. Chisolm, of Richland, has Just
completed applying one care of lime on
his farm. This lime was hauled out and
stacked in the field until he could put
it out. An interesting fact was, even
though this lime was in paper bags and
several rains came while it was stacked,
very few of the bags burst and there
was not any waste

School lunch program provisions re-

to pay the few cents daily cost. In this
way, nutritious lunches are made pos

State Supervisor of the War Food Ad-

asserts.
However he adds, "It is unfortunate
but true that out Of this states total
ALLEGATION of 81 1,4s8.000 for the school

"Tn other words, here is money in
the bank, so to speak, set aside for the
specific purpose Of providing for i'm
proved Juvenile diets. If 1t Is not used
within the school year, many thousands
Of children who should receive whole
some lunches in school will not have
benefited from the program"
On the other hand, Mr.. Welch dis
closed that since the beginning Of the
school year the number Of children re-
ceiving school lunches in Mississippi has
increased from 5870. A total of ABA
school units in the state now operate
school lunch programs, jointly sponsor
ed by the War Food Administration, the
State Department Of Education, County
Euperintendents of Education, City
School Systems. Boards Of Trustees, and
authorised representatives Of parochial
schools. This compares with 40 schools
In the first month Of the school year.
'1rhis increase he declares, "is par
ticularly gratifying, in view Of increas-
ingly difficult problems Of food and
labor, since It reflects growing con-
sSieusness Of responsibility on the part
Of parents and others within the COM
munities sserved. This is particularly
important, in wartime, especially in sec
lions where mothers are engaged in war
work outside the home and where chill
drcn's diets have suffered as con-
sequence"
He pointed to development Of a
strong community spirit as one of the
chief means Of instituting an effective
school lunch program, and urged that
teachers and parents, through their
joint PIT. A. groups, seek to promote
such spirit in areas which now do not
have Auch programs.
Applications for school lunch assist
ance, he said, will continue to be re-
ceived as long as funds are available.

say the experts, so we dismiss
the thought until reality comes
forcibly and personally home
to us.
On Oct 31st last, while re-
turning to his ship in a launch
after shore leave, in a collision
our Henry was lost. We were
stunned because for the past
three years, Henry had been
shooting at Nazi submarines
with his deck gun; and again
and again had come back to us
to speak of it only with great
reserve and to assure us that
his trust in God made him abb
solutely unafraid.
During all these weeks that
have followed, we have been
overwhelmed but at last we be-
gin to see through our tears,
This amiable youth, happy,
courteous, clean and manly,
we raised and taught-we adj
monished and urged. He lis
tened and needed. A finer
youth never lived.
Naturally sagacious, he be-
came broadened by travelling
all over the world and he
thought deeply about the
things he observed. We knew
that a great treat was in store
for us when, after the war, he
could speak without jeopardy
He did write us that he was
moved by so much poverty and
lack that he saw in many
lands.
A few months short of %
was Henry's allotted span, but
as we view him in finished
perspective we are greatly
heartened. We see a typical
American youth rising up to
the measure of all the great
requirements necessary to pro-
tect his parents, friends and
country. We see all the old
fashioned verities justified and
we have the gracious memory
of our boy radiant and glorious
throughout all the ages.
