GET READY TO SOW FALL
COVER CROPS IN AUGUST
August, is the month to start sow
ing fall cover crops, said E. C.
Blair, extension agronomist fct
State College.
Vetch or crimson clover may be
sown in cotton when it has been
laid by, or in corn or tobacco which '■
have already been laid by, he said. ,
Scatter the seed and cover it with '
a cultivator.
Crimson clover may be sown in
the hull during August, but will
not give good results if this type
of seed is sown later. Thirty pounds
is enough for an acre. The rare
for vetch is 20 to 25 pounds to i
the acre.
Early in the month, prepare land
that is to be sown in alfalfa by
putting on lime and fertilizer AS
needed. Sow the seed during the
latter part of the month, prefer
ably the last week of August.
The variety of alfalfa best
adapted to North Carolina is the
Kansas common. It should be seed
ed at the rate of 25 pounds to the
acre. Most land requires 'three
tons of lime per acre, 600 pounds
of superphosphate, and 200 pounds
of muriate of potash.
Early planted soybeans will be
ready to cut for hay in August,
Blair continued. Many farmers wait
three to six weeks too late to
eut their soybeans.
Th© best hay is secured when did
beans are cut while the pods are
small, and before any beans have
formed in the pods. Some authori
ties recommend that the plant be
eut while in bloom.
The usual practice of waiting un
til the beans are almost mature gives
a mixture of beans and straw instead
of hay.
Lespedeza for hay should be cut

KEEP UP FIGHT AGAINST
INSECTS ON FARM CROPS
When there are no squares on
cotton plants, bool weevils will at
tack the cotton bolls.
Hence, it will pay farmers to
continue dusting for weevil control
after the squares are gone, said C.
H. Brannon, extension entomologist
at State College.
The dry weather did not remove
the bool weevil from North Caro
lina cotton fields, he added, and
dusting should be repeated as of
ten as necessary in infested arsas.
He also pointed out that tobac
co growers should kill, cut, or plow
under tobacco stalks as soon as
harvesting is finished. This will kill
thousands of insects tha twould oth
erwise survive the winter.
As soon as beans have been har
vested, tie plants should be plow
ed at least six inches under the
ground as an aid in controlling
Mexican bean beetles. However,
this practice will not take the place
of poisoning.
Cotton growers should maintain a
careful lookout for cotton leaf
worms. Once they get into a field,
they quiekly eat the leaves off the
