Young of Clinton, was assisted this week by the Dis trict in the construction of ter races on approximately 40 acres of crop lend. He vised the dis trict’s motor grader for the build ing of the terraces. Mr. Young said that a few heavy rains last year washed his fields badly. “In order to save soil you must take the necessary steps to protect it from flash rains,” he said. “I am also con-i vinced that you must have mead- { ow outlets, not only to take care • of surplus runoff but also to cut I down on short rows and to allow for straighter rows which can more easily be worked with ma chinery,” he stated. Mr. Young has fourteen such outlets estab lished on his farm. • This week he constructed a new type of outlet, celled W TYPE WATERWAY. This type of waterway is best adopted to slightly defined draws that are wide and shallow. It is construct ed like a terrace with a channel on each side of the ridge. Ikis provides two ditches instead at one to accommodate runoff with the spoil between. Rows can continue across the ditches. No turning is required. • • • L. F. Davis, Rt. 2, Clinton, has started the consturction of a stock watering pond on his dairy farm. Mr. Davis is building the pond in a pasture where the wa- j ter supply is not sufficient dur ing droughts to taxe care of thej needs of his dairy herd. This fact makes hm eligible for oost-shar- j ing payments, for which he has applied through the ASC office for the construction of the dam. Mr. Dav> has also requested assistance from the District in planting of 12 acres of coastal bermuda grass. He will use the District’s bermuda planter this week in planting the grass. \ • • a f J. W. Stewart of Fountain Inn. has started preparing some 40 or 50 acres of land to be planted in sericea for pasture on hds beef cattle afrm six miles ast of Foun tain Inn. Mr. Stewart has a considerable acreage of sericea already estab lished on his farm and is well pleased with the results he has b.'en getting from it as a grazing nop, especially as dry weather grazing. He said that the sericea certainly paid off for him last year during the drought * * * John Simmons of Mountville, was assisted this week in the surveying of terrace lines on ap proximately 20 acres of crop land. TTiree meadow outlets were al so laid out for Mr. Simtnonc. He plans to seed these outlets to a mixture of sericea and alfalfa to be used for hay producton, while at the same time safely diapers ing of surplus runoff water. Ter races will be constructed on this field this fall after outlets are established. Gray Funeral Home ClinUin. S. C FI NKH \L DIKF.C TORS ...and...
