"Few persons realize the diff

in finding desirable places in

suit of two conditions: the scar
city of rooms for any student,
and the hesitancy of many to ac-

which will not be alleviated for

Mr.. Truman as a safer bet.
DIR. Gallup. whose poll missed
the boat with the rest, has said
that there was a tremendous
surge to Truman at the very end,
and that this was largely at the
expense of Henry Wallace. That,
he thinks, is the main reason for
the polls going wrong. The very
poor showing made by Wallace
gives credence to this opinion.
In all probability Mr.. Truman
scored heavily when it came to
the housewives vote He never
stopped blaming the Republicans
for the high cost of living. So,
rightly or wrongly, many women
voters decided that he was the
man to help them with their
budget problems.

was the Presidents courageous

Quoted an essentially old-fashioned
campaign. He called names and
pulled no punches. On several
occasions he threw carefully pre-
pared speeches away, and spoke
his mind without text-and it
was then that he got the most
tumultous applause. His approach
and his attitude were homespun
and down to earth, and people
liked it. American sentiment ira
ditionally runs to fighters and to
underdogs, and that may have
been enough to put the President

others until clover and ny grass
grew enough to FEED the herd.
The demonstration ended on
June IS 1913, with the sale of
the last IA head of cattle. The in
come from grazing vas S3,379.89.
The expenses amounted to ST.
96l.91, leaving a net income of
S1.417.98, or S83.4l per acre.
Il feel that S83.4l per acre is a
satisfactory income" the cattle
man stated. and / plan to con-
tinue the demonstration. My cat
tie made an overall gain of 2
pounds per day per animal dur
ing the grazing. In addition the
excellent stand and growth of
white Dutch clover ~replenished
the nitrogen in the soil for future
crops"
County Agent. Hough recalls
several adverse conditions the
farmer encountered, including
loss of the hay crop, death of a
Cow, adverse weather. and other
drawbacks.
The income from this demon
stration was due to careful atten-
ton to details in management,
Mr.. Houoh emphasized. The area
was never overgrazed; nor was
it undergrazed. The number of
cattle on the fields varied as ear
rying capacity of the acreage
changed.
He feels the results are even
more outstanding because a con-
siderable amount of the expenses
were really for capital improve
ments, as fencing, water supply
and anticipated results from some
of the fertilizer supplied.
A breakdown of the expenses
for the demonstration includes
$178.07 for fencing, distributing
fertilizer, pond digging and hay
ing. Fertilizer cost $140.70, and
preparing the land and seeding.
SIS. The sweet sudan, Alyce Glow
'er, white Dutch clover and Ital-
ian rye grass seeds cost $162.58.
Other expenses as hauling, rae
cine, insecticide and minerals
cost S ,384.06.

turned II acres of low income

per acre in a little owe a year.
according to County Agent j. II
Hough, Columbia.
The cattleman first took II
acres of land from which tenant
farmers had received practically
no income for several years" He
repaired the fences, prepared,
fertilized and seeded the land,
bought stocker cattle, and set out
to manage the land and cattle for
a profit.
Starting in May, l947. this en-
terprising Extension farm dem
o~nstrator thoroughly disked the
land and fortified it with nitrate
Of soda and mur.ate of potash. He
planted 300 pounds of Sweet Su-
dan and $50 pounds of Aiyce
clover in May.
Il lost money when I tried to
save the first growth of Sudan

amounted to S37 for labor and all
the hay from bad weather. | also
estimate | lost about 5000 in
grazing from cutting the hay"
He bought cattle and turned
the first ones on the IL acres on
August 81, l947. AS grazing be-
came available. he added more
cattle; as it became scarce, he sold
some of the cattle,
In all "a cattle grazed on the
II acres" the farmer told Mr..
Hough. "At one time, | put IL
cattle in to Craze for 2
weeks to keep the grass from get
ting ahead Of the cattle and be-
coming tough"
The fields received 2 tons Of
phosphate, 2 tons of basic Stag
and a ton of ammonium nitrate
in December. On the Sudan sod
went 1876 pounds of well inoccu-'
lated white Dutch clover seed
and 400 pounds of Italian rye
grass for winter grazing. The cat
tie had trampled the sod until it
needed no seedbed preparation.
Realizes Good Profit
He never removed the cattle
from the demonstration after once
stocking it. He sold five head just
before frost, but the Sudan con-
