Pasture Renovation

Better Grass, Legumes
Build Production Power
“Punch-drunk” pastures can be
put back on their feet by a renovat-
ing program that will build up their
milk and heef producing power.
Killing out the ald grass and grow-
ing alfaifa-ladino-brome grass mix-
turds doubled yields of forage in
Wisconsin tests, the middle west soil
improvement committee said. The
old grass yielded 1,600 pounds of
forage per acre, carrying some 200

mineral nutrient content.
Completely killing the old grass
involves thorough fall working of

Maytown area). One teacher, there-
fore, would be required to teach a

have many educational advantages

No dis-

and which will be adequate for
many years to come.
All this depends, of course, n
the building of a joint high school
in this area. No agreement has yet
been signed and no commitments
have been made. It is expected that
a high school for 800 students
would have to be built. That would
cost nearly one million dollars. It
would he built by the state and
rented to the local joint district for
a forty year period. Increased state
appropriations would . pay
than half the annual rental charges.
{ The capital cost of such buildings
would be paid by the participating
districts on the basis of actual real
estate values as determined hy the
State Tax Equalization Board and
the operating costs would (be paid
con the number of enrol-
led from each district. ‘Should a

would be about $400,000, to be paid
off over a period of forty years. It
i is estimated that interest, overhead

| less than 5 per cent, or about $20,-

amounting to about $7,000, on the
