the question be raised in The

The matter came up at q

sion was sparked by 0 news

to fill the vacancy In District

asked. ''or. should we build

One proponent Of the prof.
ect, William c. Burrage, a
planning consultant, said clos
ing the door to apartment de-
velopments was not the answer
to proper urban planning.
Speaking over occasional
heckling from the crowd, he
said that well-planned apart
ments would create "a balanced
land-use pattern" and would
help to stabilize the area.
Mr.. Spiegel, however, who
said he represented owners Of
private houses with o total
value Of $40 million, retorted
that there was no guarantee
that the project might not be
changed to something even
more unpalatable to area resi-

By w. R. SULLIVAN

Large acreages of cotton have
already been defoliated and with
a few good days Of sunshine
should be open enough to start
mechanical picking. When you
still have a large number Of un-
open bolls be sure your me-
chanical picker is adjusted so
as not to pull off unopened
bolls. This can be controlled by
loosening the pressure plate in
order that the bolls may go
through without being pulled
off.
On cotton that has not been
defoliated and you are planning
on defoliating please keep in
mind that the night tempera-
ture should be above go degrees
before your defoliate will be
activated and cause a good drop
of the leaves. You will be vast
ing material if you defoliate
when the temperature is below
60 to SIS degrees at night.
Cotton mills are demanding
that we do a good job of har-
vesting quality cotton so let's
make every effort possible to
harvest our cotton as it should
be harvested. Our biggest mis-
take is running u mechanical
pickers too early in the norm
ing before the dew dries off and
too late in the afternoon after
the dew has begun to fall.
Cotton pickers adjusted as
they should be will do an eX-
cellent job of harvesting our
crop.
PASTURES -.
What you do in October to
your pasture will just about
determine how good your pas
ture will be next spring and
summer. This is especially true
of clover, wild winter peas and
vetch.

Glover areas that have a high
sod on them now need to have
the sod removed if the clovers
are to grow there next spring.
There are several ways Of re-
moving this sod, first, it can be
cut for hay and second it can
be grazed off.
In clover areas if high sods
are not removed there will be
very little clovers next spring.
We'd winter peas and vetch
will do fairly well in heavy sod.
However, if you are planning
on frosted grass along with
salt and meal for wintering your
cattle it would not be advisable
to cut sod for hay or Craze off
too close at this time.

HARVESTING CORN $50.
Corn should be harvested as
soon as it is dry enough for
safe storage. Corn harvested by
hand is dry enough at 18 per
cent moisture to store in the
Grip. Corn that is slipped shuck-
ed and stored in the ear can be
harvested at 20 per cent mois-
ture. Shelled corn harvested
with a combine should not be
above 13 per cent moisture

Late October is an ideal time
to sod seed using oats and
wheat. You may use rye grass
in a combination with either.
Be sure to fertilize at the time
you sod seed using the normal
amount of fertilizer that you
would use if you were broad
casting on a seed bed. Where
lespedeza is predominately in
permanent pastures do not use
rye grass for sod seeding or
early spring grazing as the rye
grass will have a tendency to
run your lespedeza out of your
pasture. Rye gras can also be
sown in white Dutch areas at
this time of year and will give
you good, early spring grazing
and will help control bloat from
clovers. If you have heavy white
Dutch clover areas it would be
advisable to sow 20 to Is pounds
of rye grass in these areas to
help keep down bloat next
spring.
On heavy bermuda sod wild
winter peas would be the best
legume to sow at this time.
If you want a good spring hay
crop, oats or rye grass make eX-
cellent hay in early spring and
can be planted any time during
October. You may expect to get
some spring grazing, then cut

FERTILIZE LOVE AND
LEGUME AREAS -.

Outside the delta area if the
phosphate and potash are low
there won't be good clover there
next spring. Apply a minimum
of 60 pounds of phosphate and
60 pounds of potash this fall in
order to stimulate good clover
pastures during late winter and
early spring. If your clovers are
coming up at this time be care
full and don't apply your ferti-
lizer when the young clovers
are wet with dew or rain. Wait
until the dew dries before ap-
plying the fertilizer unless you
use pelleted fertilizer.
