Announce Corn Contest
I For 4-H Club Members
A state-wide corn growing con -
test open to all regularly enrolled
4-H club members of North Caro
lina will be conducted this year with
cash prizes amounting to $350 of
fered through the agricultural ex
| tension service of State college by
| the Chilean Nitrate Soda Education
lal Bureau.
The contest will be in chargs of L.
R. Harrill, state club leader, and will
be conducted in each of the four ex
tensions districts. District prizes of
$35, S2O, sls, $lO and $7.50 are
offered for first, second, third, fourth
and fifth places respectively. In ad
dition, the (Chilean Nitrate Bureau j
i will award a gold medal for the |
j highest yield produced in the State
I with a silver medal for second state
I prize and a bronze medal for third
place.
Under the rules of the contest,
each contestant will enter one acre
of corn by June 15. The acre must
be designated and approved by the
county agent and will be grown ac
cording to his advice and suggestion.
At least 50 contestants must be en
tered from the extension district
before prizes for that district will
be awarded says Mr. Harrill. If there
are less than 50 contestants in a
district, only the highest records will
be eligible to compete in the state
awards and no district prizes will
be given in that district.
In addition to growing the corn
according to recommendations of
the county agent, a complete rec
ord must be kept on the acre and
this filed with the county agent by
December 15. The county agent will
also certify as to the accuracy of
the yield.
In selecting the prize winners, Mr.
Harrill says consideration will be
given to yield per acre, profit above
cost of production, selecting and
making an exhibit at some fair cr
corn show, field selection of plant
ing seed and the final record as
turned in to the county farm agent.
"That man cheats," said a golfer
as he entered the club-house. "He
lost his ball in the rough and played
another ball without losing a stroke."
"How to you know he didn't find
his ball?" asked a friend.

Reports Interest
In Farm Campaign
The live-at-home campaign this
year is reaching many farmers who
never gave it consideration hereto
fore, particularly in the 25 counties
where Government drought relief
loans are being made.
"This is due," says Dean I. O.
Schaub, director of the movement,
"to the fact that no loan will be
made to a farmer under the govern
ment plan unless he agrees to plant
a garden and to grow the food and
feed supplies needed by his family
and livestock. In this way, the plan
is being brought home to people
who never have attended farm meet
ings, who refuse to grow a garden
or read a farm bulletin. Due to the
cooperation from the Press, school
teachers, state officials and others,
the plan is spreading rapidly over the
entire state and should do a vast
amount of good this fall."
Dean Schaub says one measure
of how the movement is spreading
can be seen from the daily requests
being received at State college for
bulletins. This demand is getting to
be a real burden and funds needed
for other purposes must be used for
reprinting publications on garden
ing and other diversified features of
balanced farming.
Even though some farmers are
forced to grow food and feed crops
this year because of necessity, the
Dean believes this to be a good thinu'
because eventually such a practice
will be permanently adopted and the
state will profit. Then, too, rjrow-
