The best New Year resolution for the North Carolina farmer this year is one pledging himself to produce his own food and feed crops. Faith without works is worth lit tle, so are pledges without action. The business-like farmer will begin now to plan his crop acreages for the coming season. Tom Tarheel says the best wife- saver is not some highly advertised bottle concoction but is running wa ter in the home. The well prepared hotbed makes early gardening easy. More cotton on fewer acreas and the remaining acres put to food and feed crops and livestock is the wise plan that will be followed by some Tarheel farmers this year. A difference of over 1,000 pounds of legume hay per acre was secured where land was limed as compared with a similar unlimed acrea in tests made by North Carolina farmers last season.
