THURSDAY, APRIL 24, 1930. i ! INTERESTING FACTS FOR # FARMERS !-r TIMELY HINTS ON GROWING CROPS. Hews of the Week on Chatham County Farms —<s> One of the best fields of wheat seen in the county this year so far. was visited by the County Agent Friday of last week. This field is apart of the farm owned by Mr. Dick Huddleston near Kim h’olton. It is the farm adjoining joe Johnson. Mr. Huddleston had „oy beans seeded here last year and owing to the rains, it was im possible to save the hay after it had been mown, with the exception ,f a small striD near the end of : he field. The differences in grow h of the wheat where the beans were taken off the land and where hey were not is very apparent. Where soy beans were turned, the wheat is fully twice as high and has a rich, green color. Mr. Huddleston also seeded ■several pounds of lespedeza on his farm this spring with remarkable resluts. Oe reason for his success with lespedeza thus far is due to the thick rate of seedling. He used twenty to twenty-five pounds of per acre in most places. * * * Mr. J. A. Woody of Pittsboro RFD No. 2 also has a nice stand of lespedeza. This is Mr. Woody's first experience with lespedeza but he seeded thick, and will have a good thick stand the first year. * * * Possibly a number of farmers who -attended the calf club show at Pittsboro last fall remember the young bull shown by Mr. 0. A* Clapp and W. H. White of Siler City RFD. This bull won first place. To those who are interested in bulls of good breeding and type it would be well worthwhile to see this splendid individual now. Mr. Clapp has done a good job of growing him out and he shows much promise. * * * “I believe that I can build up my land quicker with terraces and les pedeza than any other way” stated Mr. T. A. Thompson of Bynum RFD No. 1 recently. Mr. Thompson has done considerable terracing on his place during the past two years, and this, together with the seeding of lespedeza, will make old, worn out land fertile again. ♦ * * Mr. Henry A. Harrington, pro minent farmer of Merry Oaks, will soon have a herd of registered Jer seys. Both of the heifers that he purchased from Virginia last year for his two sons, have freshened, one bringing a bull calf and one bringing a heifer calf. With a herd of four pure-breds, it will not take him long to develop a large herd of registered Jerseys. * * * Mr. Z. L. Dark of Pittsboro, RFD 11 There’s a MAN IN TOWN who’ll help you make BETTER CROPS DO YOU realize the importance to your entire community of the man from whom you buy your fertilizer? He serves you at very small profit to him self... but very large profit to you. The small amount of money you pay for your fertilizer comes back to you many times over through increased yield and quality. What kind of a crop could you make with out his help? TALK THIS OVER WITH YOUR DEALER To help you make better crops . . . that's your dealer *s reason for being in business. He knows that Chilean Nitrate of Soda is the form of nitro - t gen that does the most good for every crop you grow — cotton , corn, fruit , , { . truck everything. If he does not have Chilean Nitrate in stock he can get it for you ( at a moment's notice. Just tell him that you want Chilean I Nit rate ...the world's only natural nitrate fertilizer.

Farm News Edited by N. C. SHIVER, County Agt. N 0.2, reports that his heifer, pur chased from Virginia for his son has freshened and brought a fine bull calf. * * * Our pure bred cattle in the county are constantly increasing. Mr. Ira White of Siler City RFD reports that his sons heifer purchas ed from Virginia last year has freshened and brought a fine bull calf. “Farm Philosophy” “All of the successful agricul ture in the world has been built around legumes.”—Dean Alfred Vivian, Ohio State University. • * * The dairy herd that gets the most feed, properly balanced, gives the biggest profits in return. •* * | In the spring, a gardener’s fancy should alsor turn to thoughts of the fall garden. , . .j ; * * * Time to give a thought to “Billy 801 l Weevil.” iBo prepared td give him the fight of his life this year. V* * * Only grade “A” farmers can make the prade in these parlous days of demands for quality pro ducts. is Springtime fand> thought; “He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.” -v — The Best Dairy Cows Make The Best Breed The frequent question, what is the best breed of dairy cows for Chat ha m county, can best be answered by saying that it is more important to get good animals with in a breed than to lay stress on what breed it is. All dairy animals, even in the same herd, vary in their inheritance for milk and butterfat production and there are good and poor animals within the same breed and under good feeding „ and management ditions vary on the average of be tween fifty and sixty per cent in production. Everything else being equal, is a good plan to select the same breed as that which is predominant in the community. This point Sis. really more important than pre ference because it offers an oppor tunity to select animals with the. least inconvenience and expense, When there are surplus animals to sell there will be a wide market be cause of local demand. Distant de mands will come to the community because there are large numbers of animals of a given breed from which to select. This plan also permits neighbors to work together in their breeding program, especially in buying valu able bulls to use in two or more Chilean Nitrate of Soda EDUCATIONAL BUREAU 1 \ ... . 403 Professional Bldg., Raleigh, N.

It also helps community de velopment because meetings, shows, test work have a common interest in which more people can take part than if several breeds were represented in the community. Sale of Registered Jerseys in Alaman-ce in May \ A number of farmers in the county will no doubt be interested in the sale of registered Jerseys to be held in Alamance county in May. Mr. W. Kerr Scott, County Agent, reports that a number of promis ing heifers and young bulls will be placed in this sale. This will offer our farmers an opportunity of obtaining good Jerseys at reason- j able prices. It is hoped that a num ber of Chatham farmers will attend this sale, and the County Agent would like to - hear from farmers interested in attending, in order that all may go together.. The exact date of sale and number of •'indivi duals consigned will be announced later. . * ’ •f Seventeen Chatham Farmers Co* operating With The County Agent on Cora Demonstrations Seventeen corn demonstrations with seventeen Chatham farrhptrs were measured up this week. The objects of these demonstrations is note so much a large acre yield of corn as it is the more production of corn, and ’a study of the results of various fertilizers for corn on different soil types. Each farmer conducting a demon stration expects to keep a -record of bis fertilizer and labor costs, and also other expenses, in order to find out the cost of production of corn in this county. The effects of legumes turned under in the soil on the yield of corn will also be studied. Prizes to the high yield ing men, to the men who produce corn at the lowest costs and to the men who keep the best records will be distributed. The following men are cooperationg with the County jjAgent in this project; R. D. Gee and .J. W. Dixon, Jr., Siler City, Joe Sam Dorsett, Siler City, 0. L. Lambert, Siler City, R. H.
