The Third Educational Farm Tour will start Thursday, August 27th, comprising the following counties: Rowan, Davie, Davidson, Stanly and Cabarrus. Plans are being completed for one of the best tours that we have ever offered the farmers of these Counties, and the party will assemble at Lex ington, N. C., at 8 A. M., on August 27th, which means that they will have to leave Concord not later than 6 :30. The trip will be made in cars, Fords and others carrying from four to five passengers and their equip ment of blanket, cooking equipment for each car, and provisions, and it will be a good plan to make up the cars in the different communities, tak ing lunch ready prepared which we will eat with a short stop at Hills boro. Then to Oxford, where we will stop to visit the experiment station. Then via South Hill, Petersburg, with several stops at some of the best farms on the way to Richmond, visiting the packing plant, seed growers ex change, as well as other seed farms. Then to Spottsylvania, visiting some of the historical battlefields, and on into Washington, making camping grounds at Arlington Experiment Station, visiting Alt. Vernon, Wash ington, Seed Breeding farms, Belts ville, and College Park, the Alaryland Experiment Station, as well as at tending the National Soy Bean Grow ers’ Association meeting being held while we will be at Arlington. Then to Fort Royal, the Government Horse Breeding ’Station, New Market, Har risonburg, Poultry Fattening Plant, Staunton, Lexington, Lee Memorial, Roanoke, Curb Alarket, Blacksburg, Via., Experiment Station, Tulaski, Hillsville, back to Mt. Airy, N. C. The above is an outline of the route and the experiment stations that will be visited end a partial list of the dif ferent farms that we will visit. ' For further information call at my office Saturday. .\ Early Hay. One of the most serious problems confronting the farmer at present is a sufficient amount of good hay for liis live stock in order to keep them in good condition with 9 minimum amount of grain. Abruzzi rye can be sown the first of September with vetch and rye mowed off before it comes out in heads eatly next spring and it will usually come again , wh,en. mowed -early and the second crop will come along with the vetch to mow or turn under and plant to a summer crop. Rye don’t make an extra good hay but it is several weeks earlier than any of the other small grains. Fulgrum oats and red blooming crimson clover can be sown along about the middle of September and will make some real good hay provid ed the winter isn’t severe; but by the seeding of several different crops for hay and grain you will be surer to get a good crop from some one of them. Beardless barley and vetch or white blooming crimson clover is one combinatiton that will produce hay or grain as the barley is as hardy as wheat and contains more leaves to the stem than any of the other small grains, and slioul dbe seeded the latter part of September and through Oc tober. However if you prefer using the clover to the vetch the sooner seeded the better. With a good hay of any of the above combinations of small grains and legumes farmers can work a crop with about a third of the grain for their work stock and keep them in good condition. In order to grow vetch successful ly it is absolutely necessary to inocu late the seed if the laud has never grown vetch before, and this can eith er be done with dirt from a field that has grown vetch or with commercial inoculation. Our Major Problem. A Better Soil Fertility:—AWd Phosphate, Lime and Legumes and a genuine crop rotation are the chief factors leading to a fertile soil. A better soil fertility has, is now and will continue to be our one common major problem. As long as we con tinue to cultivate poor soils and try to produce crops with commercial fer tilivers alone, just so long will we continue to hold our conspicuous place near the bottom of the list of States in illiteracy and pen capita wealth. PLAN BIG AUTO EXHIBIT AT THE CABARRUS FAIR New Feature Being Arranged by Dr. T. N. Spencer and P. M. Lafferty. —Space Selling Fast. An auto exhibit on a big scale will be one of the added features at the Cabarrus County Fair this year, Oc tober 13-17. Plans for the exhibit are being perfected now by Dr. T. N.
