Reforestation in Holmes County has made
unusually large proportions since its beginning in
1349. A total of approximately &c million pine
seedlings have been put out with around 3a
million seedlings the past year. This speaks well
for the interest of Landowners in a program that
will bring a future income not to mention its
contribution to the soil protection, water storage
and growth of wild life.
But these fine efforts have to combat the
criminal fire bugs. Fires hurt the economy of
The county not to mention the damage done to
land fertility and destruction of future crops Of
timber. Of course tightening sets off a few but
nothing to compare with the arsonists.
Sometimes a fire bug wants to set these fires
for various reasons. He may want to burn his
neighbor's woods so he can put cattle on the
neighbor's land. Sometimes a man does it be
cause of i'll feeling or a grudge against the own
er. Other times the fires are set because of pure
meanness, feeble mindedness or drunkenness.
Incendiary fires or those deliberately set are
feared most by the fire fighters. The arsonist
knows when the burning conditions are the best.
He will generally pick a day when fire crews
are already busy battling unintentional fires. He
usually sets a string of fires that gets them
burning at various points and harder to combat
due to this fact.
The value of timber besides the income it
provides for the future. helps slow up runoff of
rainfall and minimize the erosion of soil thru
out the area. In addition the rotting of leaves
~iertiliZes the land.
So you can readily see the advantages of re-
foreStation. For many years people paid little at
tention to the depletion of our forests. But as the
northern interests cut off the timber and made no
e fort to replenish the cut over land, then we be-
gan to see these barren and unproductive acres
as deriment to our land values. What once was
a beautiful forest of virgin timber, became an
eyesore of stumps and g%ulies.
AS a lot of farmers are now cleaning up or
preparing for farming they should exercise care
about burning debris. Let's hold down the loss
of fertility from the torch. The whole county
will benefit if we do. What hurts your neighbor
hurts you in the long run.

County Agents Notes

you know you are not going to
plant your allotment or rent it to
someone else turn it back to the
County Committee. Then it may be
reallocated to another farmer who
would like to plant more cotton.
Bangs Vaccination
Let me urge that you have all
female calves banks vaccinated
between the age of A and 8 months.
This will not cost you anything
to do. All that is necessary for you
to do is to notify your veterinar-
ian as to how many calves you
have of this age and make a date
with him to do the work. The
county, state and federal govern
ment pays for having this work
done. 1t is our only way to eridi-
cate brucellosis or bangs in our
area.
Also, let me urge you to have
your livestock vaccinated against
blackleg as the spring of the year
is the time of year when our
young cattle usually take blackleg.
Also, let me urge you to vacicnate
your entire herd against leptos-
pirosis and malignant edema. This
is good insurance. The loss of ]
animal would more than pay for
having your cattle vaccinated for
several years.

The Holmes County Soil Conser-
walton District has been able to
help many protect and improve
their land.
Every year more land owners
come to realize the importance
of putting all of the land on the
farm to its best use, whether for
crops, pasture, trees, or wildlife.
This year the Soil Conservation
District has received bicolor les
pedeza plants and seed from the
Mississippi Game and Fish Com
mission for distribution to those
who wish to establish food patches
for quail.
Norman Weathersby, Lexington
business man and sportsman, is
planting 5 bicolor food strips for
quail. Each of these plots con-
tain about b acre and will furnish
enough food for a covey of quail.
Dan Pepper of the Acona COM
| munity got enough bicolor plants
for 2 such strips. These food pat.
ches, whether established with
plants Or seed, are usually planted
as field and woodland borders OF
in small openings on the farm
where pasture or cultivated crops
would not be practical.
F. L. Fleming, a delta planter
who is interested also in good
conservation practices, will plant
4 bicolor food patches on his place.
The Cruger Hunting Club, near
Cruger. is planting $4,000 bicolor
plants for quail food.
The Soil Conservation District
has some bicolor lespedeza seed on
hand for distribution to those who
would like to plant a border or
food strip for quail on land not
being used for crops or pasture.

When Buying Piece Goods

NONO NVONAo
If you're one of the many sew
itIyourself dresSmakers, you'll be
interested in these suggestions on
buying piece goods. First, check
the thread count. Is it close and
even, as so square print? This
means 80 threads to the inch.
Combed yarn is better than
carded yarn. Look for the label
sanforized or pre-shrunk and know
the fabric you buy will not shrink
more than 1 percent. Check on
color fastness to sun and washing
and cease resistance.
Observe whether it is merceriz-
ed for high sheen and greater
strength. Is it vat dyed for dura-
BILE colorS?
Inspect stripes, checks and
plaids to be sure that they are
symmetrical that they are the
same design to the right and left
a. well as up and down. Plaids,
stripes and checks should be WOW
en-. If printed, they likely will not
be on the straight grain of the
cloth.
Select a print that is in good
proportion to the size of garment
to be made.
Avoid novelty fabrics; they are
usually too expensive. You don't
want fabric that has long floats of
thread, either on the right or
wrong side, that are loosely wo-
ven, or that fray badly.

Small Grain For Hay

Small Grain For Hay
If you are going to cut oats or
rye grass for hay it would be
well to move your cattle off not
later than April LIST, and sidedress
with 80 to 40 units of nitrogen per
acre for good quality hay if you
have not already nitrated your
oats this spring.
Planting Pasture Grasses
Bermuda, Dallis and lespedeza
seed should be planted between
now and April /. These combina-
tons make an excellent perma-
nent pasture.
Fertilizing Permanent Pastures
Farmers who intend to sell live
stock products from livestock this
year should fertilize permanent
pastures early in the spring. The
ASC office will help many farmers
with part of the cost of fertilizer
and seeding pastures. Every live
stock producer should take the adj
vantage of the ASC payment in
helping to improve their pastures.
If you will contact some of the
agricultural workers of the county
or go by the ASC office they will
advise with you as to your fertiliz-
err and seed program for the COM
ing year.

We noted where the National Guard made a
raid again the past week. Last week it was over
at Meridian and the past week at Marks. Compe-
tition often brings about strange action. Maybe
that is why they don't get orders to raid closer
at home. But we have got to look out for home
business and keep the black market tax graft
going for the beneficiaries. About the only thing
these raids do is to up the price of liquor and
10 increase the number of bootleggers. But as
long as we have folks drinking wet and voting
dry. hypocracy will continue to flourish.

RANDOM SHOTS :. by Graz Ruiz

placed in Mississippi during 1858, % million more
than during 1857. It was the largest percentage
increase in placements in the nation. It is hoped
that union racketeering will not invade the in
dustry and halt our shipments to outside areas
as they have done in many states on other COM
modities.
Egg production during 1858 from farm and
commercial flocks totalled 81 million dozen in
the state. Mississippi has become noted for the
quality of its eggs.
So you can see from the above that this
makes a lot of drumsticks and scrambled eggs.

Cotton Allotment
| want to urge every cotton
farmer in Holmes County to either
plant his entire cotton allotment or
release his allotment back to the

Polio Shots A Must

RENDER four years ago when everybody was scram-
bling for the Sak vaccine? 1t in short supply There
rumors of 'black market" in the vaccine.
Everybody seemed to want this wondrous protection
against one of the most fearful of mans diseases.
Organized effort brought the vaccine to most of
school age children and to many adults. Polio
dropped dramatically in 1866, 1856 and 1857 1t looked
like complete victory a dread disease.
The National Health Council has recently pointed
out however that although the effective vaccine is
in good supply, of paraytc polio increased Az
1857. Why? Studies show that more than half
tected Polio epdemics occurred last year in Detroit
spots of unprotected people may be present in every
town or city, constituting threat of epdemics in
the summer of 1859
The Council acting at the request of the u. S. Pub
lie Health Service and in collaboration with the Amer
can Medical Association and the National Foundation
calls upon every city and town take good look at it's
protection against polio 1t suggests that we ourselves
find out how we'll Observation-Disclosures we have
no protection than before Jonas Sak perfected
his vaccine.
The Council has pointed out that over and above the
intensive national efforts, a community "face-toface"
job now needs to be done 1t has urged national health
welfare and civic organizations, working with local
health authorities and medical organizations to encour
age their local leaders to get behind Community Action
Against Polio"

Housing Equality
Campaign Started
In PhiIad Iphia
Educational Kits Aid
Fight On Racial
Discrimination

Philadelphia, Pa, April Ia -
The City of Philadelphia and local
real estate men have joined in an
educational campaign to eliminate
racial discrimination in the sale
and rental of housing.
A "Do-It- Yourself" kit has been
prepared by the Commission on
Human Relations, a city agency
dedicated to racial equality.
The kit, composed of mimeo-
graphed and printed material, ex-
plains the causes of racial changes
in residential neighborhoods. 1t
details the benefits of an open
market in the real-estate business
and outlines program to gain
community support for full equal
ity and opportunity for all seeking
housing.
Copies of the kit were distribut-
ed by the commission among 200
community leaders at a recent
meeting at which officials of the
Philadelphia Board of Realtors
pledged cooperation.
The board and the commission
disagreed, however, on the need
for legislation to outlaw discrimi-
natory practices in the sale and
rental of housing.
Alan L. Emlen, president of the
board, acknowledged "inequities"
in the real-estate market, and COM
mented:
"Most of the people, when pur-
chasing or renting homes, place
great value upon exclusiveness in
terms of religion, ancestry and
particularly as to color. These de-
sires are in conflict with the basic
concept of an open market.
j There is a dilemma here that
demands solution. We in the Phil
adelphia Board of Realtors believe
that the solution will be found in
! education. We are convinced that
/! legislation to guarantee an open
market is unavoidable and will only
| increase the misunderstanding be-
tween people of various races and
creeds "
John Rogers Carroll, vice chair
man of the commission, said that
the principle of equal housing OPP
portunity could become a reality
only if it is law.

he was not accepted for himself,
