Conservation Aids Are Important To Farmers In Nation With the agricultural spotlight shifting to acreage allotments, marketing quotas, price supports and "surplus" farm commodities, the conservation of soil and water becomes increasingly important, says Bert Rau, chairman of the Mason County Agricultural Con- servation Committee. THE CHAIItMAN urges county farmers to retain their conserva- tion plans. Although per-acre yields have increased tremendous- ly during the last 12 years and surpluses are beginning to pile up for a mlmber of crops, population is increasingly important, insists Bert Rau. He points out that it now seems certain that 20 or 30 million acres will be taken out of the produc- tion of principle cash crops. This provides a real opportunity to step np soil and water conserva- tion work on the diverted land. Farmers and consumers "will benefit from shifting this acreage into conservation uses, the chair- man explains. Soil fertility will not be wasted in the production of commodities for which there is no market. Instead, reserves will be stored in the soil for fu- ture needed production. HEAVY PRODUCTION of grain and other cash crops during and since the war has depleted the humus and broken down the soil structure on millions of acre8 in the mtion. There is a growing need to get this land into sod crops. As the chaWman explains, "The real wealth of Ma:;on county is in the soil, and as farmers we are the .guardians of that wealth. Throgh the Agricultural Conser- vation Program the nation is pro- viding assistance in conservation jobs. Now that we can take some of our land out of heavy produc- tion of ('.ash crops, we have an opportunity to do a better conser- vat.ion job than eve,''i__ Representative of Equitable Life Assurance Society Life Insurance Retirements Annuities Long term, low Interest rate Farm and Country Home Loans Aldercroft Nursery ' Phone 591-W BARGAINS Sarah Waldrip were in Tacoma on Monday.

SllELTON AIRPORT NEWS by Kurt Mann The great amount of activity noticed at the local airport early part of this week was largely due to the aerial search being con- ducted for a missing plane, de- tails of which are described else- where in this issue. Among the many visitors to Shelton this past week were Dar- rell Baldwin who was employed here as an instructor for some time. Darrell flew over from Fort Lewis where he is spending two weeks active duty with the Na- tional Guard. Other visitors were Mr. and Mrs. Tommy Wilkerson who flew here from Blakely is- land where they now make their home. ll. D. Call[son and Berwyn Thomas took advantage of the 'beautiful weather Sunday by fly- ing over the Olympics and as we understand got some beautiful aerial shots of the mountains. Add to the list of owners of personal airplanes the names of Frank Tray[s, Tom Reilly and Harry Woodard. The three are in co-ownership of a neat little Er- coupe. The cokes were on Ray Braun and Jack Smith this week, the usual treat on anyone who solos. Another solo was in the form of a X-country flight by Norman Castle, it being his first. Norman flew tO Salem, Ore. and returned the same day. Congratulations to Ritchie. He now has the multi-engine rating added to his license. Another new student has been added to the roster, this time one of the fairer sex. Miss Vickie Taylor took her first two of instruction this week. Anyone going to the Rose Festi- val at Portland?
