Timely Farm Questions Answered at State College Question: What Is the best ma terial for treating cottonseed to control dam ping-off? Answer: The two percent ethyl mercury chloride is very good. This chemical is sold under tho trade uame of 2 per cent Ceresan and can be procured at any seed, hardware, or drug store. When n^ed atthe rate of three ouncas to the bushel of seed It gives ef fective control of the disease. Re sults from 251 farm tests made within the past few years show tliat seed treated with Ceresan produced enough extra lint to practically pay the fertilizer costs. | Extension Folder No. 3i? gives full directions for the use of tills material and a copy may be had free upon application to the Agri cultural Editor at State College. Question : Should I select eggs of some definite weight for Ilklch Jng purposes? Answer: Best results are al ways obtained from eggs that weigh 24 ounces to the dozen, but in addition to the weight, hatch- 1 ]ng eggs should be clean, fresh, well-formed, of good shell texture, and of a color conforming to the requirements of the breed. Eggs that are round, small, short, thin shelled, or those that have ridges around thein should be set aside for home consumption and not used for hatching. At this time of the year, eggs for hatching i-hould be collected two or thr-je times a day to prevent chilling. Question: How much tobacco seed is required for plant ing a seed bed? Answer: One ounce of seed should be used to each 300 square! yards of bed. A more practical j ? measure is to use one tablespoon ful of recleaned seed to each 100 square yards. Mix the seed thor oughly with cottonseed meal, dry sand, ashes, or fertilizer before sowing. For an even stand, half o' the seed should be sown in One ! direction and the remaining half acitoss the bed at right angles to' the first sowing.

Are aisr uvm&ir - Doans Pills i THANKS AND CHRIST | MAS GREETINGS * F.-H. dBTE/S State ColleRe Dear Mr. Editor As 1 look back over the past ] year in the agriculture of this . State, several notable dev^op- j rnents in better farming cai^ be seen. Our farmers have made excellent progress in dairying; there are more beef cattle; swine growing has receiveed new im petus; poultry production is in creasing and there is a decided improvement in the growth of food, feed and soil improving crops. ^ %Ve grew the largest tobacco crop ever produced, and this with the European war and unsettled conditions generally, helped to"! hold down prices. Cotton produced bountifully iu the piedmont and less well in the coastal plain, yet our farmers showed definitely that they will bring back cotton as au import ant crop in the State. We had our greatest enrollment in the 4-H clubs, with something ' like 50.000 rural youth now mak- i ing the best better and furnishing ! leadership in our rural communi- ; ties. The women went iuto the busi- j ness of improving their homes and gave serious study to all ques tions of food, clothing, balanced 1 diets and home management. Take it all in all. 1939 has been a year of accomplishment on Xorth Carolina farms. And to you and your paper must go a measure of credit for j all this. You have carried infor- . niative articles telling the latest ! news in Extension and research. j You have interpreted for our reading public the beat Informa tion available here nt the center of the State's educational facili ties in agriculture. You have al- ' so told the story of successful men and women iu your local commu- 1 nities. Certainly this has helped and I thank you for it. Were it not' for thfs line cooperation on your part, I doubt that our farmers could ever become fully acquain ted with the facts, rulings anil news which they need to know sc as to keep pace with the fast mov ing events of present day farm life. , i We have worked together for another 12 months in a construc tive effort and not only do I thank you on behalf of all of us here at i the college but I presume to , speak also for the rural people who are your readers. At the same time, I wish to ex tend you our best wishes for i happy holiday season and all good luck for 1940. Yours very truly. F. H. JETER, Editor.
