Condemnation NeuM
BY S r. GOA

Land is the basic resource
in Holmes County where
most Of the people get their
living directly from the soil.
What happers to the soil di-
rectly effects not only the
farmers, but the bankers,
merchants, young people,
sportsmen, and housewives.
The Soil Conservation Ser
vice works through soil con-
servation districts, giving
technical help to landowners.
They help the farmers plan
and apply the needed con-
servation work. To conserve
it and keep it productive re-
quires proper use and treat
ment of every acre of land.
The Soil Conservation Ser
vice works with groups of
farmers If. watersheds, plan
ming and applying c~onstruc-
ticn and vegetation measures
to control floods and erosion.
Other agencies contribute
much to the solution of these
problems ard the Sos works
hand in hand with them to
get the job done. Some may
wonder how conservation is
accomplished.
First it is necessary to take
inventory of soil resources on
the farm. This is done by the
soil scientist who records the
types of soil found on the
farm, the slope, land use, and
eXtert of erosion. This infor-
nation is all recorded on an
aerial photograph SO that the

Air dry for awhile before
storing or returning to the
bed.
Gently brush the dry blar-
ket with a stiff brush to
bring up the nap and help
relieve some shrinkage.
You may moisten the bind
ing and iron with a warm
iron or with a steam iron to
help give the blanket a rev
look again.
If you blanket needs serv-
icing, be sure to take it to
an authorized service shop,
Don't try to repair it your
self.
Avoid punching or sharply
folding to avoid breaking the
wires.

GARDEN CLUB

The West Garden Club

Mrs. Pauline Johnson, pre-

farm planner and farmer may
use the information to guide
them in their decisions for
best land use.
One of the main problems
concerning the cropland is
that of moving the excess
field water to a safe disposal
point. The solution may in
volve the use of row arrange
ment, drainage bitches. wa
terways, V-or W-ditches. di-
versions, or OVERALL struc-
lures. Much of the most pro-
ductive land in Holmes Coun-
ty is bottomland, which US
ually requires drainage mea-
sures of some kind before it
can be brought into full pro-
ductivity.
For a long time it was the
custom for farmers to plaEt
the same crop on the same
land year after year. Now,
however, the successful far
mer has learned that good
crop rotations pay off in big
ger crops. Many now rotate
~ow crops with hay or pas
ture to restore the soil to its
former production level. Us
ually the sod crop is left five
or six years before being
planted to row crops.
Conservation farming near
~ always involves some land
use changes. In this county
one of the most significant
changes has been that of con-
verting the more credible
land to sod crops as hay or
pasture. This good conserva-
ton practice has done much
to increase livestock produc-
ton locally.
Another important develop
ment has been the construc-
ton of farm ponds for live
stock water. Very few ponds
were built in Holmes County
before Soil Conservation Dis
tricts were organized. Now
almost every farm has ar. ex-
cellent distribution of stock
water by means of farm
ponds.
The District Commissioners
long ago recognized the need
for reinforcing and repler.-
ishing the timber stands in
Holmes County. Consequently
more than 80 million pir.e
trees have been planted on
idle land and on wooded
areas where the quality of
trees or the star.d was made
quate. Woodland wedding and
thinning practices have i'm
proved other thousands of
low quality timber.
Wildlife conservation has
been included also iL the To-
cal nlan of operations. Many
farmers have stocked and de-
veloped ponds for fish pro-
duction. Some have planted
food crops for dove, quail
and ducks.
So, it is evident that Soil
Conservation program in
wolves many different prac-
tees. That is necessarily so
because all of the land is in
Guided.
Soil Conservation means
not only a better farm life,
but a better community. Or
ly by protecting and improv-
ing our basic resources, the
soil, can the community sur
vive and enjoy general pros

Cleaning And Storing
Electric Blankets

The time to take blankets
off the beds and store them
isn't far away.
Before you clean and store
your electric blankets, be sure
to check the instructions that
came with the blanket. Fol-
low them exactly. Most man
ufacturers recommend wash
ing rather thar. dry-cleaning.
If washing is recommended
for your blanket follow the
blanket laundering instruc-
tons given for your washer.
Some manufacturers recon-
mend a soaking procedure for
blankets and all recommend
ed the minimum amount of
agitation and the use of warm
water.
Before you begin to wash,
measure the blanket so you
can block it back as nearly
as possible to its original size,
if necessary.
If the binding is extra soil
ed, brush it first with a soft
brush moistened with warm
water and the same deterg-
ent you will use in the wash
ing.
Be sure the controls have
been disconnected. Laundel
only one blanket at a time.
You may want to add ore
of the fabric .softeners dur
ing the final rinse to give the
blanket a luxurious softness.
When line drying, place the
blanket across two lines.
When drying in an automa-
tic dryer, add six to seven
