E. Baker, of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, will be one of the chief speakers at Farm and Home Week at State College, August 1-5.' He will appear on the joint pro gram for men and women Wednes day and Thursday morning, said John W. Goodman, assistant direc tor of the State College extension service and secretary of the conven tion. "To rescue for human society the native values of rural life," will be the subject of Dr Baker's address Wednesday, and the next day he will discuss, "The drive of form youth and wealth to the cities." One of the great drains on form wealth, he has found, is caused by rural people moving to towns and cities. At the joint session Tuesday morn ing, Lynn Bamsay Edmmster, of the Department of State, will discuss trade agreements with other coun tries so as to facilitate imports of! commodities this country needs to increase United States exports of I fiirplns agricultural and indujtiiiilj products. "Other countries cannot buy more1 from us unless we buy more from| them," Goodman explained, "and1 the trade agreements that Mr. Ed minster will discuss are of vital im portance to Southern agriculture." Dean I O. Schaub, director of the extension service, has announced that, at the request of men and wn men who attended Farm and Home week last year, the evening pro grams must be kept free from speech-making and reserved for I band music, group singing, and oth er recreation and entertainment. An exception is being made for Thursday evening, however, at which time, Guv. and Mrs. Clyde K. Hoey will address a joint assembly of men and women in Kiddick Sta dium, weather permitting. # Was Here This Morning Farmer Calvin Ayers was here this morning from Beat Grass * Were Here Veaterday Messrs.

B. Williams, head of the agronomy de partment at State College. The pale green and yellow crops, especially in Kastern North Carolina, ire suffering from a lack of nitro gen, he explained. The soluble sources of this element are easily leached out of the soil in rainy weather Experiments, however, have shown that where the inorganic ni trogen, which is necessary, is sup plemented with organic sources such ss cottonseed meal, soybean meal, fish meal, dried blood, or tankage, crops are better protected against nitrogen deficiency in wet weath er. Nitrogen from organic sources does not dissolve as rapidly and will; stay in the soil for a longer time than that from in organic sources such as nitrate of soda and sulphate of ammonia. Pale, sickly crops that appear to mid nitiugeii at this lime will?be helped by moderate applications of inorganic, quickly soluble nitrogen given as soon as possible. Professor Williams pointed out. Side-applica tions of 40 to 50 pounds of nitrogen ous material that can be taken up at once by the plants should help cotton in fields where the nitrogen originally applied has leached out. Moderalo applications of 75 to 100 IHiundi of nitrate of soda or SO to TO pounds of sulphate of ammonia per acre should be ggyen at once to corn and sweet potatoes where needed, he added Additional applications are not necessary for tobacco, but breaking out the middles and ridg Ing the row8 will put more ferttliz er in reach of the plant roots and promote better growth. Washing Increases Value Of Irish Potatoes In N. C. Washing commercial Irish pota toes to improve their market value is now being done in North Caro lina and "hopes are that the experi ment will prove successful," Harry T. Westcott, associate marketing specialist of the State Department of Agriculture, reports "The potato-washing experiment has been conducted extensively by Florida growers in connection with the shipment of "Bliss" variety with the result that their potatoes have enjoyed greater consumer appeal," he said "Many truck shipments of North Carolina "washed cobblers have been reported to arrive at re ceiving points in good condition and brought some premium in price.
