Your doctor and our trained

ing together to give you the
finest, modern science has to

me sitting under a tree, little did
he know that I was working on
national problems.
Throughout this whole area,
while the rest of the farmers
were using up their tractors
adding to the national problems
by piling up more surpluses,
almost single-handedly I’ve
been shouldering the entire re-
sponsibility of working on a
solution to those problems. I
didn’t have to wait on the Pres-
ident’s Commission of distin-
guished leaders to tell me that
if for example you’re trying to
solve the problem of farm sur-
pluses, you’re off on the wrong
foot from the very start if you
climb on your tractor and try
to do it while growing some-
thing to add a few more feet to
the stock pile we’ve already
got. It’s like trying to solve the
traffic problem by driving
through the middle of it, or the
population explosion by having
more kids.
So, from being considered
years behind, I’m suddenly
seen as years ahead, but I don’t
want to brag about this. I mere-
ly want my banker and a few
stores in town to understand
this when they get reports I’m
behind in my plowing. I have
simply refused to get caught
up in the hurly-burly, mad rush
of going up one row and down
Dear editar:
When 11 distinguished Ameri-
can leaders appointed by the
President himself spend a year
coming to the conclusion that
the rest of the country ought to
act like I do, it’s something to
think about.
Of course, these men, called
“President Eisenhower’s Com-
mission on National Goals,”
didn’t come right out and men-
tion me and my Johnson grass
farm by name, but their report
said: “All Americans ought to
devote more of their time and
enegry directly to the solution
of the nation’s problems.”
If that doesn’t mean me, I
don’t know what does.
For years, while my neigh-
bors have been
devoting their
time and ener-
gy to t h e i r
farms, I have
been setting a
pattern by de-
voting mine to
a solution of
the nation’s
problems. When some neighbor,
wheeling his tractor around at a
turn-row, glanced up and saw

Conservation crop rotations,
to include a legume in the crop-
ping system, are being planned
and carried out by many of the
cooperators of the Gonzales
County Soil Conservation Dis-
trict. These legumes are being
planted to provide soil protec-
tion from erosion and to main-
tain or improve the physical,
chemical and biological condi-
tion of the soil.
District cooperators report
that their winter cover crops
have done exceptionally well, so
far this year.
Some of the cooperators that
have winter cover crops are
George Stain and. E. H. Baker
in the Cheapside Community;
Morris Moore, Raymond, Neit-
sch, Herman Ort, A. B. Spoh-
ler, Jr. and Robert Breitschopf
in the Stieren Community; Os-
car Buckholtz and Herman
Buckholtz just north of Gon-
zales.
The coastal Bermuda on the
W. A. Bradley farm near
Wrightsboro is doing very good.
Mr. Bradley’s coastal has pro-
duced a lot of grazing and he is
well pleased with it. He also has
a small acreage of NK-37 Ber-
muda that was planted this
spring that is looking good.
Technicians of the Soil Con-
servation Service recently as-
sisted R. L. Barnes and Joe
Watson in revising their con-
servation plans.
R. L. Barnes planted about
two acres of coastal Bermuda
this year and he is well pleased
with the results that he has
obtained. His conservation plan
calls for planting more coastal
Mr. Barnes intends to utilize
the coastal for grazing and for
hay.
Joe Watson has a small area
of King Ranch bluestem that he
plans to use for a seed plot in
order to plant more K. R. on his
farm. This K. R. will be planted
on a heavy Blackland soil.

another when I should be work-
ing directly on solutions for the
nation’s problems. The fact I
do it under a shade tree in the
summer time and by a fire in
the winter time has no bearing
on the ultimate goals I’m striv-
ing for. And the fact I haven’t
arrived at any actual solutions
is no valid criticism. You know
anybody who has?
