Counter r-Charges Fly
In Wake Of Mccarthy
Attack on Stevenson

Senator McCarthy's charge that
Gov. Stevenson helped Communist
causes aroused counter-charges
today that the Wisconsin Re-
publican mingled "big lie" meth
ods with character assassination
The Democratic presidential
nominee did not comment directly
on Senator McCarthy's speech o1
Monday night. Nor did Gen
Eisenhower. the Republican nomi-
nee, described by Democratic Ma
tional Chairman Stephen A
Mitchell as having to bear full
responsibility for the Mccarthy
assertions.
President Truman, campaigning
In Minnesota, accused the Re-
publicans of reSorting to fear and
smear and slander and character
assassination. He referred thus
to Senator Mccarthy:
If the Republicans can't fool
the people on the issues by saying
me too they think perhaps the
tactics of Joe Mccarthy will get
the people so confused and fearful
and suspicious that they will for
get the issues" the President said.
But the Mccarthy attack on
Gov. Stevenson, some of his aSso-
ciates and hackers, and various
groups criticized by the Senator
as left-wing was Endorsed in Re-
publican and other quarters.
Dirksen Defends Mccarthy.
Senator DirkSen, Republican of
Illinois. said Americans should
carefully ponder the facts told
about Adlai Stevenson and his left
wing advisers" He contended that
those advisers cannot answer the
facts Senator Mccarthy exposed,
so they have only their usual re-
course-to smear the man who
made them public"
John Stelle, former Democra-
tic Governor of Illinois and one
time national commander of the
American Legion, declared that
every word of the Mccarthy
charges is true. He said "Candi-
date Stevenson and the satellites
around him should answer Sena-
tor Mccarthy"
AS the Wisconsin Senator moved
into West Virginia today to CAM
paign for the Republicans, the
continued reaction against his
speech ranged all the way from
bitter terms such as storm troop
er mentality" to predictions that
the speech had fallen flat.
Vice President Barkley, in ST..
Louis on a campaign trip, told
reporters that the lightning
flashed. the thunder roared-and
killed a chigger :"
The only public attention Gov.
Stevenson seemed to give to the
speech was in some remarks he
made yesterday in Newark, N. j.,
recalling his wartime economic
mission to Italy. That mission
was one of the points attacked by
Senator Mccarthy.
u. S. Aid Fooled Reds.
Gov. Stevenson said Italy and
France would almost surely have
fallen to the Communists" except
for the aid given by the United
States in 1947-48. The purpose
of the mission he headed to Italy
in 1943, he explained. was to de
termine how best to sustain Italy's
economy during the combat pc
riod and to plan for a postwar
recovery"

County Farmers Spend $50.
Per Acre Operating Costs,
Conservation Group Reports

Montgomery county farmers
spend about $50 out of every $68
they earn per acre of their farms
on operating expenses, according to
state average estimates computed
by the Committee for Conservation
Now.
On the basis of the Committees
records, the average 150-acre COM
mercial farm in the county earns
about $4,000. Operating expenses
run about $7,100, leaving approx
mately $4,000 for the farm family.
Allowing a return of per cent on
investment, the average 150-acre
farm produces $1,400 annually on
the investment, and 81, 800 for farm
operator and family labor.
Operating costs for the states
$4,000 farms add up to around
$196,500,000 out of annual income
in the neighborhood of $275,000,-
600. This leaves approximately
$75, 100000 for farm family in
come. Crediting $36,00O,O0O for re-
turn on investment, $39,000,000 is
left for farm family labor.
The Committee explained that
this cost situation is significant
because it shows average farmers
are not unduly profiting from food
prices. Cost figures also show the
Importance of farm spending to
the business economy. To the farm
er, a cost breakdown can be a
guide in planning operations.
The percentage ratio of many
farm expenses can be reduced by
conservation farming practices, the
Committee added. Good soil man
agement will produce greater
yields of feed and prevent waste
of fertilizer, for example, and
farming on the contour rather than
up and down slopes saves on labor
and operation and upkeep of farm
machines.
Operating costs for the average
150-acre farm amount to about $2,-
600 livestock and poultry feed, ST.
500 for labor, 700 for deprecia-
tion of buildings and equipment,
$400 for fertilizer and lime, $3.50
for property taxes, $3.50 for gaso-
line, fuel and oil, 1920 for tractor
and machinery repairs, 5000 for
seeds, bulbs, plants and trees, 5000
for building maintenance and re

Tall fescue-ladino clover: @Poor

Tall fescue-lespedeza: "This mix
ture was hurt by the lack of les

a result of poor soil conditions for

area was seeded once only.
''In areas where they are both
adapted, lespedeza and bluegrass
pastures work hand in hand" Bur-
ger said, "since bluegrass gives
good early season production, while
lespedeza, which comes into produc-
tion in July, does best in late sea-
son. When allowed to reseed itself

such as supplies, fees, electricity,

Because these figures are aver
age, they do not necessarily apply
to individual farms. The figures
for labor cost, for example, varies
considerably above and below the
average, and the degree of mort
aage debt determines interest cost.
For the state as a whole, farm
operating costs amount to $55,000,-

Montgomery County sentinel., 1952-11-20

The Importance OF an lntegrated
pasture program-using adapted
pastures to keep beef production
high throughout the grazing sea-
son-was shown when the first
phase of beef grazing trials was
recently completed at the Univer-
sity of Maryland Tobacco Expert
mental Farm, near Upper Marl-
boro, Md. The two and half year
experiment, studying the beef pro-
ducing ability of five different pas
ture mixtures, was completed No
vember 8.
Here is comparison of beef
yields per acre this year and last
year: orchard grass-ladino clover,
1882. pounds this year, 416 pounds
hlast year; tall fescue-ladino clover,
~351 pounds this year, 432 pounds
last year; Kentucky bluegrass
white timothy, 358 pounds
this year, 375 pounds last year; or
chard grass-lespedeza, 303 pounds
this year, 31S pounds last year;
tall fescue-lespedeza, 246 pounds
this year, 220 pounds last year.
The grazing season last year was
165 days long, while this year it
was 1870 days, from April 16 to
October %. The chief factor in
generally lower beef yields this
year was the loss of some of She
clover during last winter.
Tall fescue-ladino clover and the
bluegrass mixtures continued
growth longer than the other mix
lures. Ending November 8, the POP
day grazing season for these mix
lures resulted in beef gains of SIC
pounds per acre for tall fescue-
ladino clover, and 375 pounds for
Kentucky bluegrass-white clover
timothy.
The grazing season this year be-
gan April 16, when Is steers were
Rlaced in pasture paddocks in the
<121s acre grazing area. There were
212 acres of each pasture mixture,
divided into 5 half-acre paddocks
for rotational grazing. The orchard
grass-lespedeza and tall fescue-
lespedeza mixtures were originally
stocked with three steers, the 9th
ers with four.
On July 16, when beef yields
were somewhat reduced because of
shorter pastures, six steers were
moved to a 612 acre lespedeza pas
ture. These six steers gained an
average of 165 pounds per animal,
between July 16 and October %,
while the II steers remaining on
their original pastures gained an
average of 108 pounds.
This points up the advantages of
an integrated pasture program, in
the opinion of DR.. A. w. Burger,
the agronomist in charge of the
experiment.
Here are his comments on each
of the pasture mixtures:
Orchard grass-ladino !, clover;
'The balance between grass and
=. clover was good on about 80 per
y cent of the area, probably because
of better moisture conditions thar

when the Corcoran gift of
paintings opened in its own
building in January, 1874 (on
the northeast corner of Seven
teenth street and Pennsylvania
avenue. the site now occupied
by the United States Court of
Claims).
Mr.. Corcoran was also pres
ident Of the Board of Trustees
Of George Washington Univer-
Sity from 1869 to 1888 (the year
Of his death. age 9O) and a
benefactor. Hence, it is appro-

commemorate this public-spir-
tied citizen in opening its fifth
season Of art exhibitions organ

The current exhibitions title,

taken from a book eulogizing
the banker, philanthropis:. and
