PAGE FOUR WE SELL The BEST FERTILIZER USE LESPEDEZA AS SUBSTITUTE Can Be Used in Place of Other Legumes; Seed Is Scarce s The two hurricans which swept over northeastern North Carolina last fall almost wiped out the commercial soy bean crop. Cowpeas, alsoJJMescarce, and it is perhaps advisable. ern growers to think of substituting Icspcdeza for these two popular sum mer-growing legumes. "Lespedeza seed is scarce also, but less so than soybeans and cowpeas," says Enos C. Blair, extension agrono mist at State College, who has been making a survey of the situation. "The lespedeza may be planted on small grain from February 1 to March 15 and those who plant spring oats might also scatter some lespedeza seed on the oat> immediately ilfter they are covered. In other cases, the lespe deza should be covered with a weed er, a section harrow, or ( a brush drag. In sown in this way at the rate of 25 pounds to the acre, the crop will make as much hay as will soybeans or| cowpeas except on extremely light,; sandy soils." Mr. Blair has found that there will be little surplus soybean seed to ship from the northeastern part of the state 1 i this spring- Growers and dealers both concur this statement, and this is the scetion which supplies North Car-! olina with the bulk of its seed soy beans.

POULTRY GROWN I —J* — Indications Are Demand for I Baby Chicks Will Hold Up Well This Year I —: — * Because poultry growing seems to provide a fairly dependable source of . income and prices for broilers have , been better than was anticipated, in ' dications are that the demand for baby | chicks in North Carolina this season will continue as good as in 1933. ' "'However, poultrymen should care fully select their sources of baby chicks and if possible get those which 1 have been produced from eggs laid by blood-tested liens,' cautions Roy S. ' Dearstyne, head of the State. College ■poultry department;. "Another im portant point is to be prepared for the 1 chicks before they are received at the farm. Chicks are highly perishable, and the brooder houses need to be ready in ample time. VV'e have found i that the starting of baby chicks for i early pullets or for early broilers is ■I , • The shortage of-cowpeas exists not ■only in this state but also in South t Carolina and Georgia, and the prices for seed are much higher than at this 1 same time last year. In view of I'tbis scarcity and high price, farmers will do well to substi tute a..part of their normal acreage | of soybeans and cowpeas with the more plentiful lespedeza, Blair be- I lieves i WATCH AD FRIDAY Imore complicated than raising them later in the season when sunshine, range, and green feed are available." Dearstyne says baby chicks started ■very early have a tendency towards leg weakness that later chicks do not have. This means that the early chicks should get all the sunshine pos sible. Where they do not have green feed, an-extra amount of cod liver oil needs t\ be added to the mash. If the chicks are badly crowded and the drinking and eating places are inade quate, cannibalism will likely develop. Baby chicks started early need the best of care and rigid sanitation. Care lessness and indifference in handling them will prove costly, says the poul-j tryman. Select and Treat Seed Potatoes With Care All potatoes showing diseased spots or blemishes should be discard ed before any treatment is given. If the potatoes have small, black, hard bodies on the surface or black areas and soft spots, all such tubers should be discarded and the remaining pota toes treated with mercuric chloride at the rate of 1 ounce to 8 gallons of water. Put this solution in wooden barrels and soak potatoes for 1 to 1-2 hours. Dry the potatoes immediate ly after soaking. Where potatoes are in a healthy condition they should lit soaked in a fortnadehyde solution (1 pint formaldehyde to 30 gallons of water) for one to one and one-half Always treat potatoes and wash and dry before cutting.
