National ACP For 1970 To Emphasize Conservation Benefits For All
Secretary of Agriculture Clifford M. Hardin announced the national agricultural conservation program (ACP' for 1970 with emphasis on the dual service of the program to agriculture and the general public. This year’s ACP further emphasizes enduring conservation practices which help protect and conserve the nation’s agricultural land and water resources. The ACP for 1970 adds basic authorization for new measures for abatement of water and air pollution. U. S. Department of Agriculture officials said specifications for pollution - abatement practices will be developed in each state in consultation with pollution - control authorities. In addition to soil and water conservation benefits, the pollutionabatement practices are expected to contribute to improved environmental quality for all persons within the areas involved as well as for downstream users of water. Even stronger emphasis will be given in the 1970 ACP to permanent conservation practices. At present about 83 per cent of ACP funds are used for practices which make an enduring contribution toward protecting and conserving natural resources. The 1970 ACP is expected to increase this percentage still more.

The foregoing are the two major points of emphasis for ACP for 1970. Some minor technical changes are being made. Emphasis also will continue on encouraging use of ACP by lowincome farmers, on special ACP projects which provide conservation benefits for entire communities, and on practices which help provide for balanced use of agricultural lands. The ACP, which is administered by the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS', provides a means for the federal government to share costs with farmers for conservation practices in the public interest. The local office is located at 105 east Main street, Warsaw. This enables the farmers to do more than they could otherwise afford to do individually to conserve the Nation’s natural resources. Conservatiori costs are generally divided on a fifty-fifty basis between the farmer and the federal government. However, low - income farmers may be eligible to receive up to 80 per cent of the cost.

INFORMATION ON BRAIDING RUGS LAFAYETTE — Braiding a rug can be creative and rewarding winter project. Begin planning for it now. As you make or alter winter clothes for your family, save the extra pieces of material. Wool wears longest and shows least soil, advises Ezelle Johnson, Extension home furnishings specialist, Purdue university. It is best for all rooms except kitchen and bathroom. Here, cotton is recommended, since it can be washed. Designing the rug is important and should be done before braiding begins. When planning the design — repeat each color at least twice; add interest through uneven spacing of stripes; change no more than one of the three strands in a round; carry one color throughout the rug, using a form of it in each braid; allow few changes near the center; frame with a border;' avoid plain bands — they show soil more easily than mixed areas and tend to lead the eye in circles. Braids should be % to one inch wide. Strips of material should then be cut according to the weight of the fabric. For example, an overcoat may be cut in one inch strips and doubled while lighter weight fabrics will need to be cut in wider strips and folded three or four times. Press Strips after folding. Cut each strip four to six feet long and roll separate colors into balls. Braid until only four or five inches are left, then sew on another strip. Sew ends of strips together on the bias and press seams open. Blanket mill-ends can be lapped straight with edges whipped. Sewing and pressing completed, you are now ready to braid. Begin with two strands. Fold one strand so that one end is shorter than the other. Tuck the end of the second strand into the fold of the first and sew firmly. This gives the three strands needed for braiding and leaves no raw edges to hide later. Having one strip shorter will prevent two seams in the same place and eliminate bumps in the braiding. Make plait or braid the same as you would in hair braiding. Pull strands tight so braid will be firm. Sew the braids together using a large needle and doubled carpet or button thread. Do sewing on a flat surface and be careful to hide the thread.
