® Melvin Anders is practicing
good conservation on cropland
on his farm in the Glaze City
Community. He plants about^l/3
of his cropland to Winterpeas
each fall. The winter peas are
followed by cotton. Com is
grown following cotton. All of
the cropland is bottomland.
About 2/3 of the land is flat
and does not need terraces. The
remaining 1/3 has some slope.
This land was terraced about
15 years ago. Anders is interest-
ed in reterracing the field. The
main objection he has to the
present terrace system is the
numerous point rows. He plans
to construct parallel terraces.
The parallel terrace system will
eliminate most of the point
rows.
® ACP cost-share is available
for redoing an old terrace
system. This cost-share amounts
to about % of the cost. Soil
Conservation Service techni-
cians do the layout and check
the completed system.
• Clarence Behrens is pre-
paring to install terraces on
about 25 acres of cropland. The
terraces will empty onto a
coastal Bermudagrass water-
way. The waterway was con-
structed and planted to grass in
the spring of 1961. The Behrens
farm is located in the Monthalia
Community.
• Dr. E. M. Smith, District
Cooperator in the Kokernot
Community, has about 60 acres
of coastal Bermudagrass. It was
planted 2 and 3 years ago. He
plans to take soil samples and
fertilize according to the grass
needs.

paying their last respects on
Sunday and attending the last
rites on Monday for Mrs. Chas.

lenburg were Mr. and Mrs. E.
H. Pohler and sons, Mrs. E. W.

Mr. and Mrs. Otto Sander

When you place a Long Distance call with

city you want, then give her the number
you’re calling. You’ll save yourself precious
waiting time on the line. You’ll get your call
through faster, easier.
Area Codes for most cities are listed in the
front section (white pages) of your telephone

tion. I was reading in a news-
paper last night which I’d
found blowing along a street
in the city and brought home
with me, as a matter of fact, I
discovered that at least for
picking up papers the city beats
the country ten to one, at any
rate, I read that a man has in-
vented a new parking system
which he thinks will solve the
parking problem. With it, you
can park 20 cars in the space
now occupied by two. All it is
is a tower with an endless belt
that stacks cars one on top of
the other. When you want your
car down, push a button and in
40 seconds it comes down to
ground level, ready to drive if
you can get it out without tak-
ing off a fender or door handle.
This is going at the problem
the wrong way. It might solve
the parking problem, but not
the traffic problem. You don’t
want to stack the cars on top
of each other. The answer is,
stack the streets on top of each
other. Turn those complicated
highway approaches up on edge.
Say you’re coming into a big
city and need to get to the 16th
floor of a building. Take the
lane with the sign reading: All
16th floor traffic take this lane.
Sure enough, before you get
into the city proper you’ll have
gradually climbed to the street
that serves the 16th floor. With
other street levels for the 2nd
floor, 3rd, 4th, etc., you could
get anywhere you want, with
plenty of parking room for
everybody. I can prove it.
Take any small town in Am-
erica and if the stores don’t go
above one story, there’s always
plenty of parking room on the
streets. What the small towns
have discovered and the cities
haven’t is that it takes one
street per floor in this modern
automobile age. Most backward
thing I ever heard of, adding
on more floors without adding
on more streets. How can cities
continue to overlook something
small towns discovered years
ago?
Of course, there are a few
technical flaws in this, like
making sure the 16th floor of
one building is the same level
as the one across the street, but
this is only an engineering prob-
lem I’ll leave to others, say the
urban renewal people.
But the basic solution is there
for any city that wants it. It’s
as good as any solution ever
thought up in a city for the
farm problem.
Yours faithfully,
J. A.

The Peach Creek Philosopher
on his Johnson grass farm on
Rt. 3, Shiner has an odd idea
this week, which we publish
for what it’s worth.
Dear editar:
I had to make a trip to San
Antonio a while back and ever
since I’ve been calming my
nerves and re-
flecting on the
traffic and
parking prob-/
lem and have'
concluded that
if it isn’t solved
cities are done
for and I would
hate to see this
happen, because if the city peo-
ple leave the city you know
where they’re coming — right
out here in the country.
But I think there is a solu-
Health And Safety
Tips From The AMA
(indigestion)
Indigestion is a common com-
plaint. It occurs at all ages from
infancy to eighty, and probably
nobody has failed to experience
indigestion. That’s why we call
it “common.”
“There are various forms and
degrees of indigestion,” says a
publication of the American
Medical Association.
Food poisoning is a dramatic,
extreme type in which the
stomach contents are evacuated
by violent vomiting.
It isn’t natural to take some
form of antacid as a part of
daily living, the AMA publica-
tion declares.
The natural digestive process
is such that there is a balance
that does not require our get-
ting into' the act with the bicar-
bonate bottle. Such dosing has
two drawbacks: First, we are
“treating” ourselves in an aim-
less way without knowing what
really is wrong; second, we are
interfering with natural diges-
tive processes which may re-
sult in undesirable side-effects
such as constipation or perhaps
even an imbalance of electro-
lytes (minerals) in the blood
and body fluids.
What may be wrong? Well,
it could be inflammation of the
stomach lining, due to a variety
of causes that probably can be
identified and treated satisfact-
orily. It could be due to poor
stomach motility, perhaps a
partial obstruction, again, ident-
ifiable and treatable. It could
be due to an ulcer, which sure-
ly will be helped by proper
treatment, but not by home
remedies. Cancer of the stomach
can does cause indigestion, and
its progress could be masked by
the vague, ineffective “antacid”
routine.
