Everyone is making the best of the change they can. which is the only sensible thing to do, as everything can't move on in the same old chauuel with out making a breakover some where, sometime. There is quite a lot of cotton in the fields yet to pick, though other fall work is about finished up. Thanksgiving is here and the life of the turkey is done. The new stoves at Mt. Ziou church are giving quite a lot of satisfaction this cold weather. The sick in the community are Improving. Graves Shoffner is getting on nicely with his new house. He's the kind of material that does things when he undertakes them. H. P. Foster's radio is attract ing a number of hearers. Luctao King Succeeds With Improved Hay Mixtures. 1 Deciding to grow a better qual ity of grass hay lor work stock and oows, Mr. King sowed last spring a mixture of Orchard Grass, Tall Meadow Oat Orass, Alsike Clover and Japan Clover. A perfect stand that is develop ing into a good sod was obtained this summer. A fair crop of hay was secured the first year. In the Spring of 19^9 with reasonable hay weather, Mr. King's plot will cut over a ton per aore of a highly nutritions hay. Under hormal conditions this should make good hay for : five years or more and make grazing for over three years longer, Many meadows in northern Al amance are adapted to growing , these hays thAt are now produc , ing rongh meadow grass of very ? poor quality.

Clover Turned Under Increases Corn Yield. Crimson clover is proving its worth as a builder of crop yields when turned under in eastern Car olina. ''Last fall N. J. Miller of Merry Hill in Bertie County planted about an acre of crimson clover in a tobacco held," reports E. C. Blair, extension agronomiat at State College. "The clover made splendid growth this Spring and was finally about two feet high. The county agent, B. E. Grant asked Mr. Miller to leave part of the clover on the land and to mow the remainder for hay to compare these two methods in a soil build ing demonstration." 'However, Mr. Miller found it impossible to remove all the clover from the area where it was cut for hay. The clover had fallen bad ly and so a heavy stubble waa left. Later, on June 5, corn was planted over the whole field. After a few weeks, it was apparent that the corn after clover Would outyield that where no cover crop waa grown. Mr. Miller planted soy beans between his oorn rows and these also showed the beneficial ef fects of the clover. Recently, says Mr. Blair, the oorn was harvested and weighed. -Where no clover was grown, the yield waa was 38.6 bushels per acre; where the clover was cut for hay and the stubble plowed under the yield waa 52.9 bushels of grain per acre. All of the oorn was fertilised with 500 pounds per acre of a 10.4.0 mixture before planting and waa top-dressed with Chilean nitrate of soda at the rate of 100 pounds per acre. This was liberal fertilisation but the demonstration showed that it pays to turn under a legume crop, iu addition to using much fertiliser, if profitable acre yields are wanted, states Mr. Blair. Tom Tarheel says that he gives thanks to an Almighty God forther bountiful harvest sod for the food and feed now stored against the coming winter. Two thousand pi ue seedlings planted in Rowan County ou the Itud of a oouutry church are growing well, reports eoonly agent W. G. Yeager. classes bat also as a part of th? Jersey herd from Mr. Sbuford's farm. The calf helped to make up a couuly herd to lie exhibited out of the county aud Was exhib ited in several groups euoh as the (Jet of Sire, Het of Dam, Calf Herd, inhibitorsUerd audQraded Herd. This gave Bobby an oppor 1 tunity to win inure money. The calf is named "Oakwood Ooldou IJoll" and is a double granddaughter of the South'i i only silver, gold and medal ol i merit bull, Oakwood D's Kox Mr. Hendricks says that Bobby h ' proud of bis calf and gives hei i the beet of attention and care.
