Harvest drive for soil district contributions stagnates
The Marion-Cass Soil Conservation District faces a funding shortfall as workers dwindle and executive secretary Morris Maynor Jr cuts his salary to stay on. The district relies on voluntary contributions with no tax power. A 1955 foundation drive seeks funds, seedlings, and pledges to meet a 335,000 goal, listing numerous local supporters and upcoming events including a farm equipment sale and Soil Conservation Queen contest.
