ers in tlm freezer to be used later.

tension home economist in Mason

resentative of the Frigidaire dis-
tributing agency m Seattle, listed

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__

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? Better make
reservation for your plane early.
