CONSERVATION NOTES
BY APP. CARROLL

While on recent trips through the
county, the Soil Conservation Dis
trict technicians have been study
ing methods of handling forest for
this county. We have found good
stands of pine and hardwood on
areas adopted to its growth where
they have not burned over during
the past five years. Most of these
areas were found on land that had
been grazed. We feel that grazing
woods or potential wood land is the
best method of preventing forest
fires which destroy many thousands
of acres of young forest seedlings in
the county each year. BY grazing the
grass and under brush, the cattle
prevent the accumulation Of dry
grass and brush in the fall, which is
a fire hazard. Even though a fire
should break out, many acres will
not have a sufficient amount of dry
material to burn over, and those
acres which do will not have enough
dry matter to cause a heat intense
enough to destroy young trees and
seedlings.
Those farmers who are pasturing
their woods where the study was
made are: Brown Brothers, ]. L.
Longinotti and j. S. Cook of Durant;
w. A. Thomas, John Killebrew, SD.
Hall, and w. T. Mcdaniel of Good
man; w. J. Dodd, l.. J. Hand, Frank
Autry and Owen Mcclellan of West;
DR.. o. D. Hooker, E. F. Rathell, DC.
Lundy and Henri p. Watson of Lex
ington. These farmers state that not
only are they protecting the forest
from fire, but in many cases they
are carrying a cow for each five
to eight acres of woods and the cow
is producing a thirty to fifty dollar
calf each year.
We think farmers who have
woods should make every effort to
Tense them for grazing. Where pos
sible, they should be fenced separate
fromthe main pasture. Then at sea-
sons of the year when the seedlings
are very small, the cattle can be
taken off and give the small plants
time to get larger than the grass so
that they will not be bitten off.

The Towns Party Seems to Be Over
And the Piper-Payers Stay at Home
By Harry Macarthur

glasses are becoming standard issue,
to guard against the bright glare Of
unsullied tablecloths.
There are some who think that
nothing more serious has happened
than the early arrival of the annual
pre- Christmas slump. But there
are others who look upon the WASH
ington scene, past and present, and
announce that the ball is over. Sue
cess In the local entertainment field
today calls for something more than
1t did during the lush years of the
war boom. Then a man had to have
only the skill called for in opening
the front door and the agility to
jump out of the way before being
trampled to death by the customers.
Now a man is just as likely as not
to be trampled by night club owner
and three waiter captains, who rush
to meet his every within and even
try to make him comfortable. We
even saw a man, the other night,
demand a ringside table and get it,
without paying bride to have the
reserved" sign removed.
The busiest night clubbers these
evenings are the night club owners
themselves, who spend a large part
of their time going somewhere else
to escape the loneliness at their
own bistros. One other result of
the slump is to be noted at the
