GROWING ACROP OF OATS Of all tho cereala, oata, with the exception of rye, has tho widest adap tation for North Carolina condition* - Oats when put In properly and given a good opportunity to grow will ordi narily produce very good returns ou well drained lands, although It .la a little late to sow this crop in the upper Piedmont section of the State, yet in other portions of the State oats may be expected ordinarily, to produce good returns when put In properly thla late or a little later, and fertilized In telligently. Oats cannot be expected to give satisfactory returns on poor land unless tho land receives an appli cation of manure, or fertiliser, or ma nure supplemented by the right kind of fertilizer application. A small piece of land properly pre pared ahould produce a goodly amount of feed for stock next year. It la certalply not creditable to North Carolina that hay must be bought from other sections. In this time of expensive feeds It would certainly seem the part of wisdom to make a strong effort, In this State, (his year, to put In the necessary acreage to feed crop* so that the needs of the stock on our own farms can be taken care of. With a little extra effort this can be done easily. Where a small amount of crimson clover or vetch seed Is available, It will be well to sow these with the oats. They will materially Improve tho quality of the oat hay next year, (lood standard varieties of oata for thla Slate are the Appier and Red Rust l*roof of tho later maturing types; Kulghum and Burt for earlier' maturing.

The Agricultural Extension Service of the College of Agriculture and the Department of Agriculture Is calling attention to Oovernor Ulrketta proc lamation in which he dealgnatea the month of N6veaber aa "Thrift Month." Director B. W. Kllgore has called on all of his co-worker* to advocate and ■pread the doctrine of thla proclama tion to all with whom they come In contact. The farmers of North Caro lina have bad an uauaually prosperous year during 1917, and If the money which they have received for their product* I* frittered away, very little permanent good will result. Oovernor Rlckelt baa called Into conaultatlon several men prominent In agricultural work In North Carolina end haa asked their aid and co-opera tion In putting the matter of "Thrift Month" before the farmers of North Carolina. The commit lee has decided on eight specific accomplishments which the average farmer can do and which will be of value to him later on. These are: 1. Buy a liberty loan bond. I. If ho be a tenant, to buy. If pos sible a small farm and make the firs: payment on the purchase price. 8. To pay off ail debts and go on a cash basis next year. 4. To start a saving account In some bartk or credit union. 6. To buy a milk cow or brooding sew. 6. To Install home waterworks and Ught*. 7. To paint his house. 5. To set out an orchard. Most of these matters have had the attention of the Extension Service and Experiment Station for many years. Always they have been encouraged and urged. Now Is a good time for them to be put In operation. Not ev ery family has a good milk cow, and therefore doee not realise the value and profit to the family by such a possession. With the high price of pork a brood sow would be a most valuable possession. In Ihgg* rural J POOR GINNERIES CHOSE N. C.

The Improper ginning of cotton Is tho sources of a great loss to our farmers and I feel sure that they do not appreciate tho gains that would be theirs ahould they have their cot ton ginned at a modern gin.

Animal Husbandman, Ani mal Industry Division, West Rulclgh. There has doubtless been u time in tho history of the world when tho sheep Industry of the ITnlted States was In such a deplorable condition, and never n time when the production of wool and mutton were as Impor tant. There Is today a world shortage of 63,000,000 sheep, and thla condition haa arlaon during one of the most critical iilages In the history of this country. Before the declaration of war there was a material shortage In meat products and the emergency which hna arisen makes the condition the more critical. Wo will not only need all of the meat products which can bo pro duced from lamb and mutton, but the needs of the government in supplying the soldiers with clothing is going to make unusual Inroads into the supply of wool at hand. Wool at the preaent ' time Is soiling as high aa 80 centa per pound In the greaae. and, the chances are favorable that It will go still high i er. tinder present conditions this mesns that the wool clip from an av erage breed sheep Is worth around >6. There Is no other farm animal which produces such a by-product and still leaves the animal for reproductive purposes to replenlah the breeding stock. The cenaua taken of llveatock In North Carolina In 1900 showed that we had 300.000 sheep, and the census taken In 1910 showed a sheep popula tion of only 200,000 or a decrease of 33 1-3 per rent. Buch a condition la critical, aa It not only means that we are helping to deplete the supply of meat and wool, but we are taking from tho-farms an animal which, when properly handled, will return the largeat percentage on the money In vested of any farm animal. The slogan of every stockman ahould be to save the ewe lambs suit able for breeding purposes. It Is a crime to allow them to go to the ahsmblea. This Is so fully realized that prominent llveetock and kindred organization are making every effort possible to divert the female breading stock to the farms. For example, the Philadelphia Wool and Textile Aaao elation Is transporting large numbers of western sheep Into the eaat for the purpose of re-establishing the sheep Industry on tho eastern farms, where at one time thl* Industry flourtshcj). homo* where the home demonatratlon Menu haT« auceeoded In having wa terworka and light* oatabllahed the houaewlfo ha* considered them the greatvat boon yet received.

The buyers make allow ance for the loss that is sure to occur ' In weights by paying lesa for the cot j ton. The buyer who handles many bales from many farmers Is in better I position to Judge how much green cot ] ton will lose than the farmer who jonly raises a comparatively few bales. 1 You can rest assured that the buyer | will protect himself. As an example: | Mills are at present paying about Xc : a pound, or $5.00 per bale, mors for old cotton than new. The ginning of cotton at old styla I ginneries that fall to get out all the leaf and dirt possible has always been uneconomic and unprofitable. The farmer who has felt that he was sell Ing dirt and leaf for the price of cot ton has fooled himself only. He has been pitting his necessarily limited knowledge against that of the spinner who was and is able to tell to til* ounce how much waste a bale of cot ton contained. O. J. McCONNELL, Cottbn Grading, Raleigh, N. C. If one-half of the farms In North Carolina maintained twenty head of breeding sheep this would mean a sheep population of four million head, or approximately twelve times the number which we now have. It Is a conservative estimate to state that there Is sufficient waste land on half •f the farms of this State to carry this number of sheep. The amount of feed which It would require to keep tills number of sheep would scarcely be appreciable. On the Iredell test farm In this State twenty head of sheep have been maintained for sev oral years. The wool from theso twenty breeding ewes has just been sold for $5.00 per head, which Is more than sufficient to pay for the cost of keep, leaving the lambs clear profit. When the good pasture Is available ♦he wool will pay for the coet of that permanent pastures can not be provided In all sections of the States Is not an obstacle to sheep production since temporary pastures are very much better and there Is no section of the State where such cannot bf grown. The chief reason for using temporary pastures Is to retard the development of stomach worms which Is one of the two chief troubles in lamb production. The other obstacle, or at least what Is commonly supposed to be an obsta cle, Is the dog. This can be controlled by the use of corrala where sheep are kept at night. There is really more in the fear of the dog than the actual damage which la sustained. The writer Is of the opinion that If farmers In terested In sheep wait until adequate dog laws are paaaed that the sheep In dustry will lac hopelessly. Before a dog law can be passed It will be nec essary to have a large number of In terested stockmen bring pressure to bear on their legislators. If an at tempt la made to pass a dog law there la really no argument at the present time, since there are not enough sheep owned by a sufficiently large number of stockman to back up the taau*. Even though we bad a law at the present time sheep should be corralled at night, since there will alwaya be some dogs which may prey on the un protected flock. Conaervatlon of the breeding anlmala Is the one point which needs prompt attention, and the dog and intestinal worm problems should not stand out as barrier* when an Industry Is facing extinction. u Lonl NorthclilTe refers wilh ~ pridn to the Englishwomen who „ have taken up men's work to as p »!Ht ill the war.

I Though North Carolina produces a good crop of sweet potatoes each year, a conservative estimate places the loss due to poor storage facilities at SO per cent of this crop. Also, through lack of storage facilities prices for pota toes are lowered at digging time by the dumping of more potatoes than the market can care for. This pro duces a shortage from the latter part of March until the last of July when the early crop begins to, make its ap pearance. For this reason the Divi sion of Horticulture in co-operation with the National Department of Agri culture is now conducting a campaign to have as many storage houses built in North Carolina as possible. The sweet potato crop this year will be the largest in the history of the country. Nortji Carolina will produce 'the largest crop in the history of the State, and will thus provide a surplus of a product that will be needed to take the place of other foods which have become,, high and scarce, owing to the war conditions. With this large crop on hand the question has arisen BJS to the best methods to save all of the crop harvested. Experience has proven that storage houses are more to be depended upon than the old style earthen banks. These houses are wooden, hollow-wall structures with a special system of ventilation, and may be constructed to hold varying amounts from 600 to 50,000 bushels of the roots at one time. They have proven very suc ECONOMICAL FEEDS FOR LIVESTOCK The Animal Industry Division Feeds Hundred* of Hogs Each Year to Deter* mine the Beat and Cheapeat Rationa. Waste, or Damaged Peanuts, It Valuable A» Hog Feed. A (all seldom passe# without bring ing with It some rainy weather Just when peanuts are in shock and In condition to be dragged. Some years the loss of peanuts Is exceedingly heavy. Other years it Is almost noth ing. Whfm farmers do suffer losses of this kind It Is well to know that damaged peanuts are valuable for hogs and that they may be substi tuted for vast amounts of corn and other concentrates. In fact, damaged peanuts are so valuable that they should be thought of as being in a class with wheat shores, wheat bran, peanut meal, and soybean meal rather than as damaged goods. It my not be so this year, but It has often happened that damaged peanuts realized more as a rewil'. of being fed to hogs than they would have brought had they remained sow ed and been sold as marketable nuts. This test was made upon, the Edge combe Branch Station Farm right in the center of the peanut-growing sec tion. One lot of pigs w%s placed In a small pen and given a ration made up ef two-thirds corn plus one-third wheat shorts. A second lot of similar pigs was ted the same amount of corn but damaged peanuts were substituted for the wheat shorts. The pigs in the first lot, where corn and shorts were fed. gained, during the whole feeding period of 140 days .7 of a pound dally, while those in the lot where damaged peanuts were substituted for the wheat shorts, gained .8 of a pyund dally. The peanuts proved to be su perior, too, to the wheat shorts in economy of gains. When shorts were employed 7.S bushels of corn plus 104 pounds of shorts were required to produce one hundred pounds of in crease in weight; when damaged pea nuts were fed only 5 bushels of corn plus 141 pounds of peanuts were re quired to produce an equal Increase In weight. Pound for pound the dam aged pet nuts proved to be far su perior to wheat shorts. In fact, these damaged peanuts were so valuable a.' AN OLD MAN'S STOMACH..

At this station it was found that the loss in the houses was practically nothing, while a third of the roots were lost when placed in the .old-style banks. In some cases the whole bank has been a total loss, or 20 per cent of the potatoes Injured from the standpoint of marketable stock. Many large growers over the State have already manifested much inter est in these bouses, many having built' new houses q|* remodeled their old ones. The Division of Horticulture is sup plying, upon application, plans for building the houses, and will give advice In the erection and operation of them. It is estimated by Mr. R. O. Hill of the Horticultural Division that the building of houses advocated by his division will mean a saving to the farmers or the community, ynd will also mean that needed food will be saved to supply the market that mny cannot be supplied during every year from March to July.

COTTONBEED MEAL CHEAPENS 1 RATION FOR WORK ANIMALS. Realizing some years ago that the time had come when farmers who raise live stock and employ work; stock must give some heed to the amount and kind of grain consumed by them the State Agricultural Exper iment Station Inaugurated some inves tigational work upon the Iredell, tha Edgecombe and the Pender Branch I Station Farms to determine just the , place of cottonseed meal In the ration of a work animal. Some of the work animals upon these farms a/a fed upon a ration made up of corn and hays. Their team mates are fed ex actly the same feed except that the corn Is reduced some and cottonseed meal substituted. This piece of Investigation Is net nearly completed; in fact, it is only really begun, but stlU some valuable and deflnte facts have come to the surface. It has been found, for In stance, that no little amount of money Is being saved by the introduction of cottonseed meal into the ration. When corn is valued at $2.00 a bushel, oats ' at 64 cents a bushel and cottonseed meal at $50.00 a ton the yearly ex- ; pense of the feed bill of each wofk animal upon the Iredell Branch Sta tion Farm was reduced $5.88 as a re sult of using even extremely small amounts of cottonseed meal In con- , junction with corn and oats. When the amounts of cottonseed are ' Increased and the amounts of corn , correspondingly decreased—and this i Is to be done soon—the annual saving will be stlU greater. All of the mules i are In good health and have practical-' ly maintained constant weights. It la ' . noticeable each spring, however, that the animals which have the small al • lowance of cottonseed meal "shed off" > earlier and more uniformly than do ■ those eating corn as the sole concen trate.
