H Rawl, extension horticulturist. Reminding that th£ Agricultural Adjustment Administration pro gram during recent years has aided and greatly encouraged many commercial orchardists to carry out these desirable practices, Mr. Rawl points out that the AAA is again' providing cash assistance to help fruit growers carry out adaptable orchard practices. Listed below are soil-building practice units for which will be paid $1.50 each. * , 1. 500 pounds of basic slag used in connection with the seeding of winter legumes, lespedeza, crotala- ria, or annual rye grass. 2. 300 pounds of 16 per cent superphosphate or its equivalent used in connection with the seed ing of winter legumes, lespedeza, crotalaria, or annual rye grass. 3. Construction of 200 linear feet of standard terrace with proper outlets. I 4. Application of 1000 pounds of ground limestone. 5. Seeding of one acre of winter legumes. 6. One acre of good growth of green manure crops or cover crops left on the land as a temporary mulch or plowed or disced under. 7. One acre of good growth of summer growing non-legumes in orchards left on the land or plowed or disced under. 8. (Two-thirds of a soil-building practice unit.) Seeding one acre of annual lespedeza, not less than 20 pounds per acre, or lespedeza sericea, not less than 30 pounds per acre.
