LEWIS TELLS FARM CLrB
Raleigh. August 11. ? "We are pastj
the day of recommending that two |
blades of grass be grown until the
one first grown is successfully mark-!
eted. If the second blade is needed it ,
will follow." says V. W. Lewis In an j
address recently delivered before the ?
Craven County Farmer's Club.
"Economic production and efficient 1
marketing rather than mass production
and indiscriminate handling of farm
produce will determine If our farmers
are to continue to succeed. We have
recently been putting this Into prac
tice In many eastern Carolina counties
by urging that farmers take the hogs
and poultry now on hand and market
them to advantage. This has been done
in several cooperative shipments.
"These demonstrations has shown
the possibilities of these various crops
that so far have proved helpful side
lines. Both of these projects will grow
to larger proportions during the next
few years ? one limiting factor being
for Eastern Carolina ? the extent to
which the growers will produce feed."
Mr. Lewis stated that farmers' clubs
over the State could well act as agen
cies for determining the money crops
to be grown in certain sections, to help
correct economic ills In production and
to sponsor the marketing of farm pro
ducts.
"Good farming practice," he said,
"leads successful farmers to not at
tempt too many money crops but to
limit these, say, to three major crops
and one smaller one ? and then such
farmers will become more efficient I
and will more nearly succeed vith
these."

Sunlight and Moonlight
Sun shines and the wind blows.
Through the woods and over the bills
the little children go.
They look for flowers and shady brooks
and go to fl3hing with their lines
and books.
They go through woods and never stop
And gather lots of forget me nots.
The moon shines bright this beautiful
starlight night.
When the stars are twinklln so across
the sky the moon will go. *
The children sleep sound the beauti
ful monolight night.
When at the break of day. they all
awake and take their toys and be
gin to play.
When the moon goes down and the
sua comes up the dew is sparklin
on every buttercup.
And then the birds begin to sing
And the flowers begin to grow.
And when the children's work was
done to th<4. flower garden they
would go.

WILL CONDUCT CAMPAIGN
FOB PLANTING PECAN TREES
?i
Raleigh, August 11. ? The campaign
begun by the State College extension
division last year to popularise the
pecan in North Carolina will be con
tinued this falll. The Division ot Hor
ticulture and the Forester are uniting
their efforts to have more pecan trees
planted, especially In eastern Carolina.
In announcing this movement, H. M.
Curran. Forester, states that pecan
growing in this section is no longer
speculative or experiemntal. Owners of
established groves have made careful
and thorough tests of the pecan as a
profit earner and are satisfied with
the outlook fof the crop. The Experi
ment station of the State College and
Department of Agriculture has de
termined what soils are. most suitable,
the best methods of propagating the
trees and the best varieties of nuta
for the different sections.
"All these facts are now within the
reach of the prospective grower," says
Mr. Curran. "The Tarheel farmer who
sets out pecan trees now will not only
i Increase his present Income but wi?l
'also leave a heritage to his children.
August is i ot loo early to arrange for
planting. Se'ect the plica and begin
rs soon as possible to get the ground
in shape to receive the trees. If the
land is in a cultivated crop this will
help to get in condition. If the land is
fallow, turn it under in early tall,
plant rye. oats or some winter legume
to be plowed under In early spring.
Pecan trees will pay well for all at
tention given them."
Mr Curran states that those who
wish to plant trees this fall should
not wait too long to engage them. The
county form agent or the Division of
Horticulture at Str.te College will help
prospective buyers in securing the
best trees.
VACATION
Vacation is the time of cheer,
For it comes but once a year.
The children all laugh and sing.
When they hear the last school bell
ring,
For they know it's time of cheer.
During vacation of each year.
The children take their lines and hooks
And off they go to look for shady brook
They carry their hats and story books.
To read while fishing in the brooks.
They catch their fish and home they
run.
To tell their mother of their fun.
I
After vacation is gone.
The children return to school which
seems like home.
They study hard and try to learn.
Before vacation again returns.

One Is, that the bengallne coven ?
