leased by Vanderbilt University,

officials repeatedly made him lu-
crative counter-offer, and finally
released him from the remaining
four years of his contract.
While U. C. L. A. Athletic Direc-

terms, it vas reported reliably that
Sanders moves west on a three

L FARMING ~
A weekly discussion devoted to the
Land and Farms of Garrett County,
edited by John Carter, County Agent,
and w. w. Mace, Soil COnservationiss.

A surprising number of farm con-
servation plans call for some land
clearing to be done. Sometimes it is
the cleaning of scattered thorns or
other brush from pastures on old
fields. 1t may be a corner of woods or
a grown up fence row that interferes
with a good strip-crop layout. And in
a lot of cases it is a matter Of clear
ing woods that has never before been
cleared; to be used for pasture or for
cropland.
If you are thinking of clearing some
land there are lot of things that
should be considered. First thing is
the kind of land involved. Regardless
Of whether or not it would pay, land
should not be cleared for pasture or
cropland if it is too steep or the son
too thin for such use over d long per-
iod Of years. We might call this the
conservation angle.
The dollars and cents angle, if
fully considered, will give an answer
Just as conservative as the conserVa-
ton angle. And certainly no clearing
should be done if it will not pay in
dollars and cents There is usually no
doubt that it will pay to clear scat
tered brush from good pasture land.
1t usually pays to clear fence rows if
it will make possible a better strip
cropping arrangement.
If it is a job Of clearing woods, here
are some of the things you must fig
ure out before making a decision:
/. Cost Of clearing, and it should
include the whole job. Half cleared
land is neither fish nor fowl. A lot of
effort and expense has been put into
incomplete clearing jobs that later
grew up again in woods or brush
Land cleared for pasture should be
made so you can NOW it to control
sprouts, and get over it with lime and
fertilizer.
,. Cost Of other treatment neces-
sary. Any woodland cleared for the
first time will take from 2 to 3 tons
of ground limestone and 100 lbs. of
fertilizer per acre to make good pas
ture. For quick return it should be
seeded. For cropland it would take
about the same initial treatment plus
more careful clearing, such as removal
of stumps and stones. Wet land would
need drainage.
3. Value Of the land after clearing
and treatmest. Certainly this must be
greater than the cost to justify the
job. Maybe you could buy additional
land for less than the cost of clearing.
On the other hand, an extra few
acres right at home would likely be
worth a lot more than the same area
somewhere else This would be par
ticularly true of small farms. Each
case has to be decided on in its own
merits. One rule to go by is that you
should not clear more land unless you
are making the very best use of land
now cleared. Maybe the cost of clear
ing, spent for lime and fertilizer on
present pastures or cropland, would
produce the extra grass or crops you
need, and let that woodland go on pro-
ducing posts or sawlogs.
