RENOVATE PASTURES NOW: Now is a good time to begin a pasture renovation program. To start, overgraze the existing vegetation to weakend the unwanted plants, then apply the required

aglime keeping in mind that later tillage will help,mix it thoroughly. Next, destroy the existing vegetation either through tillage or through tillage and chemicals combined. The idea is to leave a “trashy” seed bed in which the old sod is thoroughly cut up. The results of a pasture renovation program in one northeastern state show what can be expected in terms of increases over a five-year period. In this particular case, the initial breakup was made in July, 1952. Seeding was accomplished in 1953, and the pasture was grazed rotationally with sheep beginning in 1954. Native sod was replaced with a mixture of drought-resistant Empire Birds’ Foot Trefoil and Timothy. While yields of native sod averaged .88 tons of dry matter per acre during the five years, they varied widely from .41 tons to 1.47 tons per acre. mixture, on the other hand, increased annually from an initial 2,11 tons per acre in 1954 to 3.56 tons in 1958. What is true for pasture renovation, is also true in the seeding of a new pasture. In either event, now is the time to apply the needed agricultural limestone so it can start to work to sweeten the soil, which will result in a vigorous and productive pasture. And don’t forget — that costsharing is available under the ACP program at $1.30 per ton for the number of tons required by a Purdue soil-test. Again, we- remind farmers, as we have many times, that a soil test is required and the request for cost-sharing must be filed in the county office BEFORE the limestone is applied to the fields. MANY U.S. FARMERS FAVOR A WHEAT PROGRAM: Four out of five farmers in the main wheat-producing areas of the U.S. favor continuation of some kind of a wheat program, secretary of agriculture Orville L. Freeman says.

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

held before he addressed the national convention of the Future Farmers of America in Kansas City, Mo. He also said that after nine report and review meetings, five of which were held in major wheat areas, “I am convinced it is not true that wheat farmers flatly oppose programs to limit wheat production and to support price. In these meetings, I have asked thousands of farmers from New York to the state of Washington whether they favor or oppose continuation of wheat programs? The response has been sharply favorable to continue programs.” Continuing, he explained that when he asked farmers to describe the kinds of wheat programs* they would support, the answer is not ciear at all. He pointed out that many wanted a voluntary program of some kind . . . many favor another referendum on the two-price plan . . . and some appear to wafit continued price supports with bigger acreages, even though there are no long-range prospects for selling wheat produced on increased acreages. There is also a hard core of vocal opposition to any kind of wheat programs on farm programs. This opposition is making itself heard very effectively. Noting that wheat programs have been expensive, he said, total annual expenditures which have run as high as $1.4 billion have amounted to 60 per cent of gross income from wheat. “Programs this costly will not pass the congress,” the secretary said. He explained the need is for farmers who want an improved wheat program to get together on the fundamentals and adjust their differences over details; that an urban congress will not be united on fragmented wheat legislation sponsored by a dividend agriculture and that as matters now stand there is little prospect for a wheat program to pass the congress in 1964. Turning to the cash wheat deal with Russia, the secretary made the observation that at the farmers’ meetings he had attended in the past two days in Nebraska, Montana and Washsington, support for the policy had ranged from 10-to-l to 100-to-l in favor. “A strong demand for wheat this year, however, should not be taken for a long-range solution to the wheat problem. Prices for the 1963 crop wheat will be well above federal loan levels because of the pending Russian and East European purchases. Farmers should not base their plans for 1964 on large exports this year. So far there is no reason to believe this is more than a one-shop deal. It should not be interpreted as a new permanent wheat market” he concluded. Republican Women Meet Monday Night Republican women of Adams county will meet at the G. 0.

Operation Big Lift Is Called Great Success FRANKFURT, Germany, (UPI) — The biggest and fastest transoceanic military airlift ever undertaken was declared a complete success today. Military leaders began planning for larger one to the far east next spring. Air Force Secretary Eugene M. Zuckert called special attention to the 100 per cent safety record in Big Lift, the movement of more than 15,000 troops carried out to show how rapidly the United States could build up its forces in Europe in a crisis. In a’ tribute to the Military Air Transport Service’s (MATS) accident-free delivery of the 2nd Armored Division from Texas to Western Europe, Zuckert said operations over the 5,600mile aerial bridge were performed “with a real sense of urgency but entirely consist-

ent with airline safety standards.” The transoceanic phase of Exercise “Big Lift” ended at 10:05 p.m, (5:05 p.m. EDT) Thursday when a big Cl3O tur-bo-prop troop transport set down under glaring floodlights at Sembach Air Base, 35 miles southwest of here. The honor of delivering the last 58 battle-clad soldiers of the “Hell on Wheels” division went to Lt. Cmdr. Lawrence S. Wright, skipper in a Navy squadron based at Moffett Field, Calif., and assigned to MATS. His flight from Connally Air Force Base, Tex., had taken 24 hours. Arrival of the Navy plane came 63 hours and 5 minutes

after the first Air Force C 135 jet transport had taken off from Bergstrom Air Force Base, Tex., on a 10% hour flight with 62 soldiers. The Army had called for delivery within 72 hours of the 2nd Armored Division, which k now will engage in combat exercises near the East German border. MATS had set a schedule of 63 >hourg 40 minutes to allow for weather delays. It thus beat its goal by 35 minutes. Zuckert told newsmen that such “realistic deployment exercises are going to be part of the normal training routine.”

He did not elaborate. But it was learned' that the .Defense Department is mapping? out plans now for a huge airlift next spring to the Far East. In almost every way, this will be more complex than the Big Lift maneuver with greater distances to be flown, more tonnage and perhaps more troops to be delivered and more confined areas for the landing operations. If you nave something to sell or trade — use the Democrat Want ads — they get BIG results.
