Cotton Growing Facts
Given In Circular
Because the market outlook for
•otton is so poor this year, growers
vill need to produce the crop
economically and to make the best
possible fields on a smaller acerage.
To aid in this, the North Carolina
Experiment Station at State Col
'ege has published agronomy in
formation circular number 46 by
P. H. Kime, cotton expert, giv
ng some of the important factors
: o be considered in growing the
crop this yaer. With cotton at
16 cents a pound and litt.e like
lihood that it will sell for more,
the grower must do everything
he can to keep the cost of produc
tion under 16 cents. This means
a decreased acreage, using t e
best cotton lands and increasing
the average yield an acre. Produc
ing eight bales on ten acres will
be more profitable than producing
ten bales on 20 acres, • -
Sandy loams and clay loams are
the best cotton soils, says Mr.
Kime They warm up earlier in
the spring than the clay soils or
these which are poorly drained.
Earliness is an important factor
under boll weevil conditions on
land that will produce only one
half a bale an acre under normal'
conditions. - . ~
Thorough preparation of tne
soil is essential, says Mr. Kime.
A slight ridge to the seed bed
gives better drainage and causes
it to warm up more quickly. The
seed will thus germinate more
quickly than when planted on a
level. , . ~
Do not place the seed in direct
contact with the fertilizezr. It _is
best to mix the plant food with
the soil at least a week or ten
days before planting. Close spac
ing and frequent cultivation are
two other points recommended in
the circular. Mr. Kime offers to
send it free to any cotton grower
wanting the information.
New Delivery Model
«>
In order to meet the requirements
of its expanding commercial car
business, the Chevrolet Motor Com
pany today announces a roadster
delivery model to supplement its
present commercial car line. The
new product is now in production
and deliveries to dealers have been
under way for several days.
• Designed to satisfy the needs of
every variety of pick-up work, the
roadster delivery makes an added
form of transportation available to
the users of commercial cars and
provides some features new to this
field. , > , • J
Powered by the six cylinder
valve-in-head Chevrolet engine, the
roadster delivery has all the advan
tages of Chevrolet passenger car
comfort; economy- ahd dependabil
ity, according to officials. It has
internal-expanding brakes en all
four wheels; an easy ball bearing
steering mechanism and a bigger,
sturdier rear axle.
Extra large carrying capacity has
been provided through the use of
the full length channel steel frame
and four unusually long semi-ellip
tic springs. It allows for the use
of a 66in-ch loading space, without
excessive overhang. It is a full 45
inches wide, fourteen inches high
and 24 cubic feet in capacity.
From a convenience standpoint,
the roadster delivery, offers excep
tionally wide doors, equipped with
snugly fitting side curtains, that
open and close with the doors as
single units.
A wide selection of steel slip-on
boxes has been provided to meet
the varying requirements of pick-up
service.

FEED COD LIVER
OIL TO CHICKS
<S>
Raising chicks out of season up
to a few years ago was practically
impossible. The chicks would de
velop rickets —probably more com
monly known as leg weakness—at
the age of four to eight weeks,
due to faulty mineral nutrition. As
the name implies, the chicks be
come weak in the legs, which may
be noted by an unsteadiness of
gait, and upon picking up suck a
chick the bones will be found very
weak, soft, and crooked. The
chicks affected are droopy and list
less, the wings drag, and, for the
most par,t the chicks squat. The
largest and most vigorous chicks
are often those first to show the
symptoms.
Not until the discovery of the
relation of direct sunlight to the
growth of chicks were poultrymen
able tor raise early hatches. Even
then the problem of preventing
rickets with chicks that had to be
kept confined the first eight to ten
weeks was not solved. Ordinary
window glass was found to filter
out the valuable rays of the sun.
In other words, a well lighted
brooder house, where the light
passes through glass, is about as
effective as an underground cellar
so far as its ability to aid min
eral nutrition. Besides, as you
know, many of our early spring
days are not brightened by the di
rect rays of the sun.
Science in its search for some
thing which they could add to the
chick’s ration to take the place of
sunlight, in so far as proper min
eral nutrition was concerned, found
that stored away in the livers of
the codfish was sunshine.. Cod liver
oil or cod liver meal added to a
chick starter will insure full min
eral nutrition.
Cod Liver Meal in addition to its
antirachitic properties supplies liver
tissue wheih is a blood builder.
Good blood means better health,
more complete digestion, and great
er resistance to diseases.

Hens Pay Well
For Feed Eaten
Hens in 133 farm flockstotal
ing 26,231 birds paid a little, more
for the month of January accord
than 22 cents above feed costs
ing to reports of these flocks made
by the owners to C. F. Parrish,
poultry extension specialist at State
College.
“These demonstration flocks were
located in 36 counties,” says Mr.
Parrish, “The report for January
shows that each hen produced
about 12 eggs for the month or a
total of 308,878 eggs. The eggs
sold for $11,537.43 or an average
of 44 cents a dozen. The highest
price during the month was 65
cents and the lowest, 30 cents a
dozen. The average price was near
ly five cents more a dozen than for
the same month in 1929,”
Mr. Parrish says each bird in the
133 flocks consumed 3.30 pounds
of .scratch feed and 3.66 pounds of
grain, each during the month. It
took, 7.13 pounds of feed to pro
duce one dozen eggs. The total
value of the eggs produced by the
26,231 hens amounted to $41,537.-
43 for the month or an average* of
nearly 44 cents a hen. With an
average feed cost of 21 cents a
' hen, the birds returned a- profit
above feed cost' of more than 22
cents each for the month or a total
profit of $5,968.55 for all the hens
in the flock.
The ' value of good housing,
proper management and the feed
ing of an egg-producing ration to
the farm flock is beginning to be
realized by the poultrymen of
North Carolina, says Mr. Parrish.
The hen is no longer kept as a
scavenger on the farm but now
plays an important part in the
annual income. With better breed
ing stock and better methods of
housing and feeding generally fol
lowed, she is destined to become of
greater importance in the future, he
declares.
<S>
Sow Red Clover;
Seed Are Cheap
The present low price of red
clover seed should be an incentive
to the farmers of the piedmont
section of North Carolina to sow
more of this wonderful legume than
ever before, declares E. C. Blair,
extension agronomist of the agri
cultural extension service at State
College.
At the present says Mr. Blair,
red clover seed <*re cheaper than
they have been at any time since
the World War, and the very best
grade of American grown seed can
now be bought for less than the
best European seed cost a few
years ago.
Mr. Blair does not urge the use
of red clover' to the discontinuance
of the other legumes, for other
varieties are excellent for various
purposes, but none of them, he
declares, can take the place of red
clover on the red clay soils which
are found in many' sections of
Piedmont North Carolina.
On these red clay soils of the
.piedmont section of this State, red
clover makes very big yields of hay
and on top of that a big growth
to turn under in the fall to im
prove the soil for next year’s
crop of corn or cotton.
The best method of seeding red
clover is to drill five to seven
pounds per acre lightly over small
grain, along with 100 to 200
pounds of acid phosphate or other
fertilizer. The clover seed may be
mixed with the fertilizer before
drilling or put in the small clover
box with which many of the drills
are equipped. The best time to
sow the seed is usually the last
few days of March.
There is no need to worry about
inoculation for red clover, but it
requires a fairly sweet soil. The
rule is to apply one ton of ground
limestone per acre for this crop,
suggests Mr. Blair.
STONEWALL JACKSON FIELDS

THE CHATHAM RECORD: PITTSBORO. N. C.
JACKSON DAY DINNER ;
STARTS ON PAGE ONE
paid the same - tribute to Senator
Simmons and was greeted with a
smatter of handclapping that was
instantly drowned in' a chorus of
boos and hisses.
Mr. Taylor then recognized Hom
er C. Lyon who had a message to
read from Senator Simmons. As
soon as he had read the opening
sentence bedlam broke loose and it
required all of the efforts of Mr.
Taylor, Mr. Bailey and others on
the platform, assisted by several
hundred throughout the audience,
to get enough quiet * restored to
permit reading of the message. At
its conclusion one man near the
back of the auditorium leaped to
his feet and after vainly trying to
gain recognition from Mr. Taylor,
yelled at the top of his voice, “Mr.
Chairman’s that’s a hell of an ex
cuse.”
Josiah William Bailey was pre
sented by J. M. Glenn of Gates
ville. Mr. Bailey made no refer
ence to his own campaign or to the
June primary, but bade Mr. Shouse
to take back to Democratic broth
ers and sisters throughout the na
tion the assurance that North Caro
lina is coming back into the Demor
cratic fold, state and national. He
promised an old time 100,000 ma
jority for the • Democratic ticket
next November, and a full congres
sional delegation of 100 per cent
pure Democrats.
It was a Bailey meeting. The
Raleigh man had to lose two or
three minutes of his speaking time
to let the ovation for him run its
course. And when his time was up
the audience called for more so
insistently that Toastmaster Taylor
yielded one minute additional.
The speeches were broadcast over
radio station WPTF. A series of
amplifiers about the auditorium en
abled every person there to hear
distinctly. Represented in that au
dience were the leaders and work
ers in the Democratic party in
North Carolina. They wer enot all
young; but most of them were
young in spirit and almost belli
cose. Some of the old warhorses
were on the platform and among
the diners; there were enough
women to add color and charm;
but most of the diners were under
forty years old, and wore “rain’
to go” in a good old time Demo
cratic fight.
Enjoyable as was the dinner and
the speeches, really the most pleas
ant feature of the day was the in
formal get-together of Democrats
in the Sir Walter hotel lobby.. At
one time more than a majority of
the Democratic members of the leg
islature could be seen at one glance.
Five of the eight Democratic con
gressmen were there, and half a
dozen candidates for their seats in
the several districts.
At Bailey headquarters it was
learned that Bailey clamis to the
first, second, fourth and tenth con
gressional districts were unchal
lenged by the Simmons leaders. The
third, sixth and- seventh are recog
nized as debatable ground; at least
both candidates. claim them. The
fifth, eighth and ninth districts are
claimed by Simmons managers, but
their claim is disputed by field men
for Bailey. Whatever the results
in June may be, it can be stated
emphatically now that there is an
overwhelming majority of expressed
sentiment in favor of the Raleigh
man.

Both Sides of the Proposition
DOWN in the Black Patch along Mm
line between west Kentucky and
west Tennessee where the heavy dark
tobaccos are grown, a prominent plant
er grew dissatisfied with the market
ing arrangements. It seemed to him lie
was not getting a fair deal from some
of the large European buyers and
from the American shippers who acted
as the middlemen. He decided to make
a private inquiry as to conditions.
For his emissary in this matter he
chose his overseer or crop- manager.
The latter was an expert in making the
earth yield of its bounty and regard
ing the curing and packing of the
weed he had no superior in the South
But he had never been farther away
.from home than Louisville and had
•never seen a larger city than Louis
ville. Trusting, however, to the man’s
native shrewdness the planter put him
on the train with instructions to go
to New York, conduct a personal in
vestigation and report back by tele
graph.
Upon his arrival the visitor went
direct to one of the larger docks on
the North river where several ships
were being loaded with the product of
the Black Patch for shipment abroad
Next he visited a warehouse where
tobacco for domestic consumption
was stored and immediately sent his
principal this telegram:
“Better sell this year’s crop for an>
price you can get I’ve done seen
more tobacco already than the whole
world can use in the next twelve
months.”
After this he took a stroll uptown
When he reached Broadway and Fort i
etb street he hunted up another tele
.graph office and wired hig employer as
follows:
“Disregard first message. Hold all
the tobacco you’ve got There’s enough
folks in this town alone to chaw If
all up inside of the next twenty-four
hours.”
