WHEAT AND VETCH GOOD COMBINATION The growing of wheat and vetch together as a winter crop is a prof itable and successful farm practice that is growing in favor over North Carolina. "As an example of how this works, the experience of S. B. Lee of Polk* ton in Anson County Is very inter esting," says En os C. Blair, exten sion agronomist at State College. "In the fall of 1932, Mr. Lee sowed six acres of mixed vetch and wheat and was so well pleased with the results secured this spring that he Is planting an increased acreage this fall. In his sowing last year, he used five pecks of wheat and five pounds of vetch seed to each acre. No fertiliser was used except a light top-dressing of stable manure during the winter." Blair says when Mr, Lee harvested his wheat and vetch this spring, he first threshed the grain and then separted the wheat and vetch seed by the use of a spiral separator. Ill is machine cost him $2.50 rent and one day's labor. When all the seed was separated, the grower found that he had 54 bushels of wheat and 900 pounds of vetch by weight. At current mar ket prices of $1 a bushel for wheat and ten cents a pound for vetch, the income was $54 from wheat and $90 from vetch seed. The wheat used alone would hare hardly paid the expenses of growing the crop but the addition of the vetch made both crops profitable, Blair says. Wheat and vetch have been grown together for many years In Moore. Union and Montgomery counties and Blair believes that farmers in other counties could adopt the plan with good results. r> i Timely Farm Questions Answered At State College Question: How much silage and hay should be provided for each dairy cow for the winter months? Answer: The silage requirements depend to a large extent Upon the weight of the individual cow but the average animal will consume about three 'pounds of silage a day to each 100 pounds of body weight. Multiply the weight of your cows by three and then by the number of days they will be fed and ou will have the amount of silage re quired for the herd. The amount of hay also depends to some ex tent upon the- weight of the cow and the length of the grazing sea son but under ordinary conditions two tons of legume hay should be provided for each animal in thej herd. Question: Should hogs be fedj befoi^ they are killed? Answer: No. The hog should | be kept without food for at least 24 hours before they are killed but should be given plenty of water. This allows time for all feed to pass out of the stbmach. It is easier to get a good bleed when the system is not gorged with food and the meat always cures better when the small blood vessels are free ' from food particles and blood. * Question: How can the size of eggs be increased? Answer: There are many factors that influence the size of eggs. The tendency to produce large eggs is inherited and for that reason the pcultryman shotild be careful in the selection of eggs for hatching and should eliminate all hens from the breeding flock that pr6duce small eggs. Proper feeding also has. an influence in the production of large eggs. Milk feeding and pro tein from animal sources are re commended as part of the poultry feed for increasing egg size. Q Treat Stored Grain To Control Insect Pests Stored grain, helms or peas, put up in small amounts for home use, may be protected from insect dam* age by placing in a water-tight barrel and treating with carbon di sulphid or bv mixing the seed thoroughly with air-slaked lime be fore storing, says C. H. Brannon, extension entomologist at State* College. "Where the carbon disulphid is used the barrel should be filled to within a few inches of the top and at least one-half cupful of the chemical poured over the seed," says Mr. Brannon. "The barrel should then be covered with a double thickness of heavy wrapping paper and left to stand for two days. If any insects are still active after this time the treatment should be repeated." For larger amounts the seed can be treated in storage by making the bins fairly air-tight and using 20 pounds of carbon disulphid to each 1,000 cubic feet of space, he says. , The chemical should be poured over the seed and the seed then covered to hold the gas. Brannon says that this treatment will not injure the seed for plant ing, feed, or food. When the grain is to be used Jtfst spread it out in the air and the gas will disap be kept covered or insects will re infest the stored grain, he says. When the air-slaked lime treat ment Is used four parts of the lime to one part of aped is used in quantities less than one bushel. Prom one to five bushels three parts of lime to one part of seed should be used. For larger quantities equal parts of the lime and seed are used. Mix the lime with the seed be fore storing, say s Brannon When removed from storage the seed may be sifted from the lime or washed for feed and food purposes. ? ? ? ? ? O? ~ ??????? t When Harvest Over Repair Farm Tools Repairs made to farm machinery when there is plenty of time and when the work may be done syste ! matically will be more satisfactory jthan when attempted during the hurry and rush of spring work. "With the closing of all field work this fall, farmers have the opportunity to check their equip ment and to make all necessary repairs," says David S. Weaver, ag ricultural engineer at State College. "Valuable hours next spring may be saved this fall by replacing broken or worn parts, by tighten ing bolts, screws or clamps, or by painting and greasing exposed met al to preserve it from rust. Some times, replacement parts may not be sceured at the local store. If these parts are ordered in the fall, time will be saved in the spring." Weaver says old cylinder oil kept in a can and applied with a brush makes a good anti-rust coating for all bright metal parts, such as plow bottoms, cultivator shovels and the like. Not only do plows need attention but disc harrows may be put in shape in the fall. The mowing machine is always neglected until it is needed and this machine should have a thorough overhauling this winter. ? The farm wagon stands tremen dous abuses and to prevent costly breakdowns, it should be examined for weak and broken parts. A coat of paint on the wheels as well as the gear and box will be well worth while. Weaver says. Most of these repair jobs may be done during the cold winter days. Weaver suggests that a complete list be made of all repairs needed and parts to be ordered for each machine. When all the material is assembled the repair work oan be started. r -u Dii? Sweet Potatoes Before Frost Damage Sweet potatoes, harvested before they are damaged by frosts, not only cure better but also keep better in storage than those dug after a kill ing frost. "This is especially true If rains come just before or after the frost," says E. B. Morrow, extension horti culturist at State College. "Sweet potatoes may be harvested after a frost but there is always some dam age and any delay means a corres ponding increase in storage losses." Morrow says that immature sweets will keep just as well as ma ture potatoes if they are dug before frost, handled with care, and prop erly cured. If dug early the po tatoes can also be graded in the field and separated into jumbos, U. S. No. 13s, and culls. Cull potatoes, however, are Seldom worth the ex pense of curing and storing and, in most cases, are better left in the field or fed to livestock, he say s. In curing the potatoes the most important factors are moisture and tempearture. Artificial heat is used to drive off an excessive moisture and the temperature in the house should range from 80 to 85 degrees for proper curing. Care should also be taken that no moisture collects NEW LOW PRICE #5?5 This latest tmproveo Coieman Iron will save you many times its cost in work saved, in clothes saved and in money saved!

To prevent this the ventilators should be kept wide open during the cur log process. Sweet potatoes may be suae? fully cured In any house that an swers the requirements of being tight, having good ventilation, and a satisfactory system of artificial heat. A plentiful supply of pota toes for the small farm family may even be cured and stored in a small brick brooder house as a house of this kind answers all requirements, says Morrow.
