FARMING . Mr- Hunter's way
After listening with a great deal
of disgust to all the talk about
farmers having no chance these
days, I experienced somewhat of a
thrill to read about David Hunter
of Iowa, who has run $4.88 up into
$30,000 in 20 years of farming.
Mr. Hunter is now 45 years old
and he celebrated his birthday by
burning paid-up mortgages for
nearly $26,000, the money lje had
borrowed to buy and equip the 160acre
farm. He also rents a 360-aere
farm and says that he had made
money every year but one since
1916, when he started farming.
This, to me. is just another evi
Hpnre that a eood farmer can make
MV??o ? O
a good living on good land, anywhere,
any time

MOVING .... to fertile soi'
I. have just sold my old, rocip
hillside farm in Berkshire county
Massachusetts and I am moving V
a more fertile and prosperous agri
cultural region, in Bucks county.
PennsylvaniaAfter
spending a large part of
my summer looking over this regior
where generations of thrifty Quakers
and "Pennsylvania Dutch" have
made themselves rich '.rem farming
and their descendant are stil
making good money from the soil
I am not surprised that so mam
generations of New England youth
have left its rocky hills to go int
farming in the more fertile regions
lying between the Hudson Rive
and the Great PlainsThere
are still good farms anc1
good farmers in New England, bu'
most of them have a tough time o*
it- All New England is becoming r
sort of a national playground. Like
France, New England relies upon
the tourist trade for an increasing j
part of its income. It will always J
be to me the most beautiful part or
the world
* ?
PROXIMITY .... a factor
My main reason for moving, beyond
the fact that I got more for
>Avr*rvr?rf"t7 t Vl G n it
my new uii5x?uu
was worth, is that I have to be ir
close touch with New York, and
Pennsylvania is less than half as
far away as Massachusetts. Few
people realize how narrow the
State of New Jersey is It is only 60
miles from the Hudson to the Delaware,
and both railway and highway
travel is much faster east and
west from New York than northward.
Another thing I like about Pennsylvania
is that there is no state
income tax and property taxes arc
the lowest I have heard of anywhere
New Yorkers are just beginning
to discover that Northwestern
Pennsylvania is more accessible
than Western Connecticut or even
Northern Westchester County, and
real estate prices have not begun to
soar*
* *
ELECTRICITY ... low rates
Another thing I like about Pennsylvania
is that the rate for electric
current is lower than anything
I know of in the East.
I am going to try heating my entire
supply of domestic hot water

by electricity using a scheme called
the "off peak" rate. The electric
company installs an 80 gallon hot
water tank with an electric heating
unit, and charges me one cent a
kilowatt hour for current, except
between the hours of 4 to 10 p m,
when they have a demand for all
the current they can produce.
I am told that this is the cheapest
electric current rate anywhere
in America, and that I can get hot
water for all household purposes
cheaper than by coal, gas or oilAnyway,
I am going to try it and
will report progress. If it can be
done in one place, I don't see why
it can't be done everywhere.

SPEED . . . 'around the world
Nearly 60 years ago Jules Verne,
the French romantic novelist, wrote
a book called "Around the World in
80 Days." It was pure fiction.
Forty-five years ago a New York
newspaper woman who wrote under
the name of Nellie Bly, set out to
beat that time. She got around the
world in 72 days, using only the
regular means of transportation
available to anybody.
Now two New York newspaper
reporters have started to try to go
around the world in 20 days, still
using regular transportation lines
all the way. They flew East on the
big airship "Hindenburg" to Germany,
thence they go by plane to
Rome, a train across Italy to Brindisi,
then a through plane to Hong
Kong with a few stopover on the
way, by ship from Hong Kong tc
Manila, and then back across the
Pacific on the big new plane, the
"China Clipper," to San Francisco
to catch the night plane which will
land them in New York the following
morning.
If nothing happens to disturt
their schedule they will simplj
demonstrate that anybody wlic
wants to and has $3,000 to spend
can go around the world in 20 days
a quarter of the time which it took
Jules Verne's Phileas Fogg.
Feed Too Costly For
Low Producing Cow
The advancing cost of dairy feed
means that only good producing
cows will pay the dairyman a profit
this winter.
Low producers will be an unnecessary
expense and they should bt
sent to the butcher, said John A
Arey, extension dairy specialist a<
State CollegeConsequently,
he added, this if
the logical time to improve the average
quality of the herd by culling
out inferior animals- There is nc
reason for keeping themThe
price of dairy feeds in North
Carolina has risen more than 3;
per cent since June 1, he pointec
out, and there is possibility of stii
a further increase as a result of the
mid-western drought during the
past summer.
j Arey also stated on many dairj
farms it is advisable to grow win|
ter hays as well as summer hays tc
j insure an adequate supply throughj
out the year. Winter hays are not
affected by dry weather as are
those grown in summer.
He recommended that the following
mixture for winter haj
should be sown during the earl}
part of October on well fertilized
soil:
Two bushels of winter oats, one
bushel of beardles barley, one-hall

Treat Small Grain
To Free From Smuts
_ I
Smuts In wheat and barley cani
best be controlled by treating the
seeds with fungicides or hot water
to kill the fungus organismsPlanting
seed that has never been,
infected also is good, said Dr.
Luther Shaw, extension plant
pathologist at State College, but
sometimes it is hard to get seed
perfectly free from diseaseA

capable of infesting a large percentage
of the seed produced on the
farm, and threshing machines can
spiead the spores from one farm
to another.
Oat smuts can be controlled either
by planting a disease-resistant
variety or by treating the seed
with a fungicide, Dr. Shaw addedThe
treatment recommenced differs
with the type of smut and the
kind of seed.
Treat loose smut by immersing
the seed in hot water. Keep wheat
10 minutes in water that has been
heated to 129 degrees fahrenheitBarley
should be left 13 minutes in
water with a temperature of 126
degreesA
fungicide dust will kill the
covered smut spores. Treat wheat
with 1-2 ounce of ethyl mercury
