FARM NOTES |
By W. B. COLLINS
(County Agent)
So far there has been 46 community
demonstration farms passed on by
the township committeemen of Watauga
County, and phosphate has
been received or requisitions have
been approved by the Tennessee Vatley
Authority for 344,600 pounds of
Triple Phosphate to be applied on the
grass lands of these farms.
This week there were 50 applications
sent to the Tennessee Valley
Authority for the Brushy Fork and
Vander Pool sections of the Cove
Creek Watershed for 200,136 pounds
of Triple Phosphate We have not
been informed as to whether the Cove
Creek Watershed will be approved.
The farmers on the Cove Creek Watershed
who have not done so, should
make maps of their farms and bring
then to the County Agent's office
where they can make application for
demonstration farms. If the Tennessee
Valley Authority approves the
first applications from the Cove Creek
Watershed we will have no assurance
that they will continue to do so until
all the farms on the watershed
are approved. So the safe thing for
the farmers on this watershed, who
want demonstration farms, is to get
their applications in the County
Agent's office at the earliest date
possible.
TRENCH SIEOS
At present the following men are J
building or making plans to build
trench silos: John Dugger. Sugar
Grove: Poley Xforetz, Zionville: John
Perry. Sherwood, and Brown Brothers,
Blowing Rock.
Trench silos are no longer ir. the
experimental stage as they have been
used successfully on hundreds of
farms in North Carolina during the j
last three years. The trench silo costs ]
very little to construct, it can be1
made large or small to fit every farm
need, and silage is probably the very
cheapest and best feed that any farmer
in the county can make to winter
his livestock.
Pol information in regard to trench
silos, see the County Agent.

MALARIA
Speedy Relief of Chills
and Fever
Don't Jet Maiaria tear you apart with
its racking chills and burning fever. Trust
to no home-made or mere makeshift remedies.
Take the medicine prepared especially
for Malaria?Grove's Tasteless
Chill Tonic.
Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic gives real
relief from Malaria because it's a scientific
combination of tasteless quinine and
tonic iron. The quinine kills the Malarial
infection in the blood. The iron builds
up the system and helps fortify against
further attack. At the first sign of any
attack of Malaria take Grove's Tasteless
Chill Tonic. Better still take it regularly
during the Malaria season to w ard off
the disease. Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic
is absolutely harmless an i tastes good.
Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic now
comes in two sizes, 50c and 51. The $1
sire contains 254 times as much as the 50c
size and gives you 25% more for your
money. Get bottle today at any drugstore.

Can I substitute skim milk or buttermilk
for any of the. ingredients in I
vouv recommended State laying niasii i
formula?
Answer: Skim milk or buttermilk I
may be substituted for dried milk
at the rate of one gallon of milk to
each 10l? birds. Where as much as
three gallons of the skim milk or buttermilk
is fed to each 100 birds a
day this will take the place of all
the dried milk, one-half the fish meal,
and one-ha'f the meat meal as recommended.
The success of these substitutions
depend upon the regular
feeding of the milk and unless there j
is an ample supply so as to make I
regular feedings no substitutions
should be made.
Give And Take
"Good advice," said Uncle Eben. I
"needs team work. One man must be
smart enough to give it and another |
must have sense enough to take it." I
