GOOD PASTURE

Building a good pasture is one
of the most important things a
farmer can do, says Wake Negro
County Agent w. C. Davenport.
And J. R. Adams of Raleigh,
Route 3, will "amen" that state
ment.
Mr.. and Mrs. Adams are busy
building up three-acre pasture
to increase their sale of milk and
butter. At present they are milk
ing two cows and selling the sur
plus of milk and butter. "It's come
in mighty good" Adams says.
Another heifer will freshen soon.
When the pasture natures, it
should really be nice, according
to Davenport. He says the pasture
has a live stream of water running
through the center. The pasture
was sown by extension recon-

and orchard grass. Lime was put
down first and the clover was
sown at the rate of three pounds

Porch Light Will
Be Health Beacon

The Mothers March on Polio"
will take place in Madison County
on Thursday, January 27, from z
to 8 pm. During this time, repre-
sentatives from the M d is on
County Infantile Paralysis Foun-
dation will call on residents of
the community for donations to
help wipe out this disease. The
Mothers March this week in every
Ohio community will be the one
big key &C the campaigns success.
The committee, headed by Mrs.
r. N. Ardrey, will call on all
residents of London VINO leave
their porch lights on as a sigr
they wish to donate. Checks
should be made payable to the
Madison County Infantile Paraly-
sis Foundation, Mrs. Frank Jen-
kins, Treasurer.
The Committee asks that every
one who can possibly do so, turn
on their porch light on Thursday.
Donations are more important
than ever at this time, because
of the development of the Salk
vaccine, which offers more hope
for immunity against polio than
anything found so far. Officials
state: ''The Salk polio vaccine
used in nationwide trials this past
summer is being evaluated at the
University of Michigan. We ex-
pect to have the report on it by
spring. In the hope that the re-
port will be favorable, the Ma
tional Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis is taking calculated
risk and committing $9000,000 in
March of Dimes funds for a stand
by supply of vaccine to be used
if licensed.
The drive in Madison County
is under the sponsorship of the
Epsilon Sigma Alpha sorority,
who have taken the polio program
as their chief interest in the COM
munity. Mrs. William Hook and
Mrs. Jack Minter are co-chairmen
of the drive for the county Mrs.
William Kennedy is president of
the local chapter.
The sorority will sponsor a
dance on Saturday, January %,
for additional funds for the drive
So, turn on your porch light
Thursday night. Give light a
light in your heart and tighten
