CONSERVATION NOTES

D. c. Lundy, w. J. Waits and L. p.
Johnson have purchased Crimson
clover seed to plant this fall as soon
as sufficient rain has fallen to give
adequate moisture. This is a good
winter cover crop and good graz
ing crop.
Mr.. Johnson states that he has
used this clover for winter crop and
likes it better than vetch or auster-
ian winter peas, as it takes less labor
to plant, it can be seeded on top of
the ground and it makes as good
growth as the athers. He has planted
it in bottom land that was well
drained
It should be planted following a
good rain any time during Septem-
Der or October. Take only small
amount of moisture to terminate
the seed. Therefore if it is planted
without sufficient moisture to keep
it growing until the roots are firmly
established it will dry out below
them and the plants will die When
it has rained enough to cause the
moisture to meet it, it can be plant
ed. If it is planted for grazing in per-
manent pasture, it can be seeded on
the old sod. 1t does better on the
hills and it should not be planted
on the bottoms unless they are well
drained as it is easily drowned out.
Also it should not be planted on
areas where old grass is left that
will shade the ground as it will not
do well when shaded.
Anyone who expects to plant this
clover for winter cover crop or gra-
zing should get the seed and have
it ready so it can be planted as soon
as there is sufficient moisture
The best stands that have obser-
we'd, the seed were planted during a
rain. The seed should be inoculated
before it is planted. 1t does better
where an application of lime and
phosphate or basic Stag has been
added.
L. o. Spell, C. r. Stroud and J. S.
Browning have constructed several
miles of drain bitches. They state
that their plans are not to let anoth-
er year like this catch them without
having their land well drained.
c. " Maxwell and H. H. Wynne
have constructed fire lanes between
the highway and their pastures.
This is a good practice and more Of
it should be done. The highway
sides usually burn off each year and
without these lanes the fire will sp-
read to the pastures destroying
many tons of dry grass that will
make good COW feed. They constr
ucted them with tractor and disc.

GOSPEL TALKS
By r. G. Valentine
FAITH

"But as many received him, to
them gave he power to become the
sons of God, even to them that be-
ieve on his name."--John 1:l2
Saving faith is faith that rests up
on Jesus Christ alone for salvation.
It despairs of salvation in any
works of human righteousness. 1t
repents of sin and turns from sin to
Christ. It believes that He is able to
save from sin and it receives Him
as the only savior.
Receiving Christ and resting upon
Him for salvation is believing in
Him. We believe in doctor when
we put our case in his hands. We be-
lieve in banker when we put our
money into his hands to keep for us
We believe in Christ when we put
our helpless case in His hands and
trust Him to do what we cannot do.
to save us from sin.
Saving faith links us to Christ
and we partake of His salvation and
His life. We become sons Of God
when we believe in His name. AS
his sons we have right to all the
privileges and blessings of sonship
AS Gods children we represent God
in the world and must seek to live
as becomes Sons of the heavenly
king
Do you believe in Christ as your

Roturiuns Hear Work
On Unit Forms

Holmes county's new county
agent, Mr.. w. r. Sullivan, was q
guest of the Lexington Rotary Club
Friday and introduced Mr.. c. M
Chafee, who is state supervisor OF
test demonstration farms. Mr.. Crafee
told in interesting detail of the work
being done by the various uni,
demonstration farms in the thirty
four counties in the state in which
this work is being done.
The whole farms are taken in
these test to see what the use of
these new phosphates> and good
farming practices can accomplish
There are 20 to % such farms in
Holmes county.
1t has been found in these con-
Quoted tests that by using triple
super phosphate grazing is increased
from one-third to one-half; that cat
tie will walk over places that have
not been mineralized to places that
have; yields of cotton have been in
creased from eighty to ITO pounds
of lint and yields of corn have been
increased from twelve to eighteen
bushels per acre.
The new phosphates and minerals
are being experimental with and
developed at the fertilizer plant of
the IVA at Muscle Shoals, Ala.
Mr. Chafee's address was greatly
enjoyed. Mr. T. A. Lail is program
chairman for September.

Industrial Progress Of Grenada Cited 10 Show
Benefits That May Come To Lexington

for the army-navy. It did such
superior work that it received 3
Army-Navy sE" awards, the first
was on July LIST, 1914, the End In
January, l945, and the 3rd in August
1945. During this period it employed
about 100 people of all ages, and
paid out about $125,000 a month. 1t
produced for the armed forces %
million 20 nm shells and 10 million
other articles. The oldest employee
during that period was 80, the
youngest, II.
The industry maintains cafeteria
and laundry service on cost, or
less basis.
Started 3 years ago is the EN-
ployees Profit Sharing Retirement
Trust. Briefly, the plan is this: A
certain percent of the profits are
set aside for employees benefit. In
these benefits, each employee shares
in the proportion that his, or her
own earning bear to the total pay
rSll. If, for example, Miss AS salary
is " of per cent of the total pay
roll, she benefits v of per cent
from the profits set aside. The plan
is such that the high salaried en-
ployees do NOT share in the bene-
fits to the extent that other en-
ployees shade The fund, now
amounting to quarter of million
dollars, is invested in government
bonds, loans to employees, and resi-
dence property rented to employees,
and the employees share the earn
ings from the investments, as they
do in the capital. The fund and all
of its earnings belong to the en-
ployees and, is their exclusively. An
employee, upon separation from the
company, can liquidate his share of
the trust in an orderly, reasonable
manner--too lengthy to explain
here. So far as the writer knows,
this plan is original with Grenada
Industries.
Not only has the presence here
of Grenada Industries been of great
financial benefit to the businessmen
of Grenada, but it has been bene-
fetal to hundreds of rural families
in this and neighboring counties.
Many young man or woman, des-
tined to a life or irksome toll at
poor pay, has been able to enjoy
many of the good things of life
which otherwise might have been
denied him or her.
The old time lthargy in Grenada
began to disappear as soon as Gre
NADIA Industries started functioning,
and the people saw concrete evil
dences of the value of worth while
industry. II would not be far from
the truth to state that the establish
ment of that industry here gave Gre
NADIA the inspiration for the many
additional if smaller) industries that
it has sought and acquired.
This, then, is a short story of
Grenada's greatest industry.

Performance Shown

Let's see about promises and per-
formances. Mr.. Goodman promised
that he would employ so people and
would pay out 100000 a year in
wages and salaries. Actually Gre
NADIA Industries has paid out an
average og 100000 a year, or over
8 millions in 8 years operations.
Average number of employees has
been 600. For materials, supplies,
and services. il is estimated the in
dustry has paid out about a million
dollars locally during years. That's
fine record in anybody's language.
Original floor space was $4,000
square feet. Added in 1899 and 1912,
were $4,000 additional square feet.
Now under construction is an addi-
tional space Of 10000 square feet.
Originally the plant was capable
only of the bare manufacture of silk,
then nylon hosiery. and depended
upon other plants to finish and dye
the hose. Today, the process is COM
plete-that is, from skeins of nylon
to finished hose attractively boxed
ready for display and sales counters
of the nation.
II is a far cry from November,
1887, when the first pair of hose
was made, to today when there are
about 500 persons, most of whom are
local young men and women, gain
fully employed there.
During the war, between March,

ton on the manufacture Of ordnance
