Of course the conservation district boys didn't dig this ditch but they staked it out *o that a ditch maker could. This land is a long way from the buildings and was very hard to get to for pasture. Anyway, it wasn't any good for that either. My Way of thinking says, if land isn't good for , crops it Just doesn't have Uttxch value for pasture either. This is a picture of the M.C.H.S. championship F.F.A. parliamentary team, which wort first place in Section 8 aii'd advanced to district competition, where they placed second.

Blmer Pierce, west of. ^o<Jdjtock, said he wished he had listened when we told him to lay off putting nitrogen on blueorass pasture. It made it greener when it was green anyway %nd everybody has a surplus of pasture--in spring--and browner when blue grass is dormant.

T"1 »' 'TW-W: rlgl i ft seems to us the chief duty of the United States Department Of Agriculture should be to get the dope on production and let the farmer know how much is being produced and how much should be produced next year so the farmer can make up his own mind. In other words, outlook information should be accurate and available through the county farm adviser. Of course, second ih importance should be research on new uses for products to keep up demand. "r~.l .. »i .nil, . . • ,t What is your salaryt it you went to work for someone else you would want to know just how much, yet as a farmer working for himself you know very little about it. Recently we got letters from a farmer stating the dairyman was only earn- 80 cents per hour for hi^ ,Work, so Why should he pay the IX H. I. A. tester twice that much ? Of course, saying the dairyman is only making 80 cents per hour is as absurd as can be. Everyone earns a different rate from losing a dollar or more per tiour to making perhaps four dollars per hour or more. A day a month should be spent on records, 'With experienced and trained guidance looking over your shoulder periodically.

Can you afford not to have it? Those who have had the services tor a number of years refuse to do without it. Art Calt of Greenwood, in his second year of it, says its worth ten times the cost.
