The diet, meeting today for the.
first time since the appointment of
Hermann Goering as premier, dis

program.
Before the secretary of agricul
ture, under the powers conferred
upon him by the act, issues any
regulation^, he will consult the
groups concerned, says Dean I-_0.
Schaub, of'State college. The sec
retary will obtain suggestions and
recommendations on such {mints
as: Should production or acreage
control be undertaken on a given
commodity? If so, what proportion
of reduction . should be made ?
What method wou'd best accom
plish the reduction? Should a pro
cessing tax be levied on the com
modity? If so, how much should,
the tax be? What could be accom
plished for the commodity by trade
agreemeijts ? *
While the act was before con.
gress. Secretary Wallace in dis
cussing it said. “The philosophy of
this bill, as I see it, is to enable
producers and processors to work
together in bringing order out of
the present chaos- They are given
the opportunity to work together
to make adjustments in production
and prices that are fair to the pro
ducer, harm no legitimate interest
of the processor, and maintain the
just interest fo the consumer.”
Mr. Schaub says hearings are
necessary for each commodity be
cause the program must be applied
differently to different products. A
method that might successfully
regulate production and increase
the price of wheat, might not ac
complish the same purpose for
cotton or hogs. The indixddual
characteristics and needs of the
different commodity groups must
be considered in choosing methods
and in applying them.
OFFERS CLUB MEMBERS
COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS
North Carolina 4-H club mem
bers have the opportunity of com
peting for three college scholar
ships in agriculture valued at $300,
$200 and $100 by making good
records in com club work this sea-
“We have received an announise-
ment from the Nelson Knitting
company of Rockford, 111., saying
they will donate three scholarships
in agriculture for the best achieve
ments in growing com on one acre
of land this season under the rules
governing 4-H club work,” says
L, R. Harrill, club leader at State
college. “In addition to these three
scholarships, the company is also
offering two gold, 21-jexvel watch
es valued at $115 to the club mem
ber who makes the highest yield
of corn on one acre of land and. to
the club m mber who grows
good yiJd at the lowest net cost
per acre. In addition, a gold
medal in gift box is offered to
county winners.”
Harrill says a club member may
qualify for this competition by
being duly enrolled in 4-H club
work and by growing his corn un
d»r the supervision of the agriiiul-
tural extension service- A com-
phte record must be kept on the
project showing all costs, the yield
and other .such factors.
(While this is a national contest,
it i.s open to any 4-H club mem
ber in North Carolina and those
planning to enter should get in
touch with their counCy farm
agents immediately, Harrill urges-
He is of the opinion that high
yields of com may be made under
North Carolina conditions and there
is no .sound reason why some of
these scholarships should not come
to this state.

farmer does not have the money
to invest in'one of the more costly
forms of upright silos, the stave
silo may be constructed at little
cost from home-grown timber.
“Any dairy farmer with as
many as eight or ten cows, needs
a silo to provide winter feed for
his animals,” says A. C. Kimrey,
dairy extension specialist at State
college. “The kind of silo will de
pend on the. amount of money he
has to spend but there are several
kinds of cheap silos which give ex
cellent results when properly con
structed. One of the cheapest of
the upright types, is the stave

A. To develop capom' for the
Easter market next spring the
birds shmld be-caponized during
the month, of July and should
weigh about two pounds. Por
this reason only vigorous cockerels
of the heavy breeds such as Rocks,
Reds and Brahmas are selected.'
Before caponizing, the cockerels
should be kept without food and
water for 24 hours. The poultry
department at State college can
gdve full 'information and bulle
tins on this subject.
Q.—When should cabbage, col-
lards, tomatoes and Irish potatoes
be planted for fall gardens ?
A.—This depends upon the sec
tion in which they are to be plant,
ed but the crops mentioned may be
planted in July for the coastal
plain section, in June for the up

such lengths as may be desired. A | and the latter part of May
for the mountain section. These
dates apply where the seed is
planted in the open. Where tomato

Kimrey says it is best to dress
the staves on all sides and to

possible.
From eight to twelve heiops are
needed for such a silo. These are

Mr Kimrey. says the ordinary
