Conservation News
(By Ben]. W. Crouch)
James M. Bowick of the Plum
Branch section has just signed a
farm conservation plan with the
supervisors of the Savannah Val-
Miss Betty Cooper, and two,j e y Soi j conservation District. This
friends^ Miss jJean Carpenter _ ai ^: plan calls for the development of
10 acres of pasture, planting
acres of kudzu and 2 acres of
sericea lespedeza and 50 acres to
be terraced.
J. L. Wells reports that he is
cutting some excellent lespedeza
hay this year. He did not give fig
ures on how much per acre but
says it is the best he has ever
grown.
H. O. Watson has recently cut
a lai^ge division ditch around some
woods on his farm to keep the
water from washing across his
fields.
W. C. Strom plans to cut his
kudzu for hay soon. He cut this
field for hay last year and was
well pleased with the feeding re
sults. Mr. Strom was also glad to
find that cutting kudzu was not
as hard as he had believed it to
be.
Treasurer’s Notice

mauve and pink satin dresses, and
carried cream roses and pink
muffs. The best man was Pfc.
