Th^ County Agents Column Permit Required to Move Hogs: Due to the hog cholera situa tion, a quarantine of all swine, except for slaughter, was in ef fect from June 21 to July 21. Now hogs or pigs can be mov ed from farm to farm, or from farm to special breeder and feeder sales, after they are in spected and a permit issued for their movement. Here's how to get your permit at no cost to you. First, an application for in spection and permit must be made. Application forms are available at the county agent’s office. Once each week, a U. S. De partment of Agriculture Veteri narian will pick up applications on hand at the County Agents' office. He will then visit each farmer who has made applica tion and after inspection, issue a permit for movement of the hogs or pigs. After inspection, movement must be made with in one week after the permit is issued. m making application for a permit, the following informa tion is needed: 1) Total num ber of hogs and pigs on the farm. 2) Number to be moved. 3)Where they are to be moved and 4) Date of movement. If this procedure is followed, there is no cost to obtaining a permit. Local veterinarians, on a fee basis, can make inspect ions and issue permits for move ment of swine. Call your County Agents' of fice if you have further question about movement of swine at this time. Crop Situation Dry and hot weather has hurt crops in most areas of New berry County. Corn has b e e n especially hard hit. Fortunately farmers did not heed our earlier recommendation that we wait until August to begin harvest ing corn for silage. Silage cut ting was in full swing before the last week of July. However, even with burned leaves and brown ears, most of the corn silage we've seen being cut seems to be of good quality. Soybeans and milo seem to be holding their own against the dry weather. As yet insects have not become a problem. Farmers should continue to check soy beans weekly for a possible in sect build-up. Let us know if you find any serious insect in festations. Moon Farming The first soil sample taken on the moon was certainly the most expensive soil sample ever tak en by man. Yet it may unlock secrets that will pay for its cost many times over. Astronauts Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins bet their lives on the scientific know-how that en abled this first soil sample of the moon to be taken. Yet we still have farmers who won’t risk their time taking soil sam ples of their land and then ap plying the proven scientific principles of profitable farming. All this is in way of remind ing you that late summer and fall is the best time of year for taking soil samples. A soil test will enable us to prescribe need ed amounts of lime and ferti lizer to grow good crops. Soil test now for better crops next year.
