Savor Notes
J. Carlton Clore of Culpeper, completed a 1| acre fanh pond on his farm this week. Mr. Clore recently purchased the 100-acre tract of land formerly owned by W. H. Bayley, and located southwest of Culpeper on U. S. Highway No. 29. The owner intends to develop the farm as a beef cattle unit, producing only legume hay and high quality pasture.
The pond which is being constructs by a local contractor will be stocked with fish by the 8oil Conservation District. Ponds are stocked with large mouth black bass and bream (Blue Gills) at the ratio of 100 to 1000 per acre of surface water. Soil Conservation ' Service technicians assisted the farmer in selecting his site and supervised the construction work.
J. K. Vardaman, Jr., of Washington, is continuing work on his farm pond after several days delay due to undesirable soil conditions.
Both Clore and Vardaman are co-operating with the Culpeper Soil Conservation District, and have developed complete farm plans for soil and water conservation assisted by Qoil Conservation Service technicians. Farm ponds are only one of the many conservation practices that make up a complete farm plan. The plans incorporate correct land use; by that is meant the utilization of each acre on the farm for the purpose for which it is best suited. The correct amounts of lime, fertilizer and the proper seeding* are all component parts of the complete farm plan as developed in co-operation with the Culpeper Soil Conservation District.
