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.

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.

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.

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
