H. Goodmon at a meeting of the circuit directors in Greenville. Five new faces will be seen in the harness this coming season. President Good mon stating that the newcomers have been highly recommended. Comparatively young, for the most part, the group includes one or two men with recognized records in the baseball world. There is Jim C. Bag by, Sr.. of Atlanta, the man who made a great record as a member of the Cleveland Indians' pitching staff. Completing his turn ny the game as a player, Bagby is now rep resented on the Cleveland roster bv his son. Jim, Jr The father during the past two or three years had fit ted himself for an arbiter's job. G. F Diem, a brother to "Pap" Diem, of Williamston, yesterday said that he would be leaving Swea City. Iowa, to work as a member of the league's umpiring staff Standing well over 6 feet, "Pap's" brother is an experienced umpire. Two new men. Frank C Albright, of Niles, Mich., and Helmer C Eric son, of Chicago, have been drafted from tin- Arizona-Texas League for service as members of the Coastal Plain League umpiring staff Roy Greene, of Harriman, N Y., middle-aged man who worked two years in the Eastern Shore loop without missing u game, is another of the new recruits.

"Deacon" Joliff, of Smrthfretd Irving Rosner goes to the Pied mont and Joe Cibulka, another mem ber of the staff last year, has gone into voluntary retirement for a year Baxter Moose is quitting, and Lou Kearney jumped the league shortly before the season ended last fall. Beet' (battle Require Protein Supplement Sam L. Williams, assistant exten sion animal husbandman of N C. State College, has an answer to the question: "Can beef be produced without a protein supplement?" . This is what he has been telling beef cattle breeders and feeders who I have asked the question in recent i weeks: "In my opinion it can be done, but it is neither practical nor j profitable." Then he goes on to explain that j the important thing to the cattle producer is how much weight and finish he can put on his cattle and I how long it will require. Efficient production is essential to greatest profit in any business, and this is especially true in the cattle busi ness. Some of the more common protein supplements art cottonseed meal, soybean meal, linseed meal, and corn gluten meal. All of these are about equal in feeding value. Williams explained that the econ omy of feeding a protein supplement lies in the fact that such feeds are responsible for more efficient utili zation of feed, larger gains, higher finish, and a greater selling price. Numerous experiment stations have shown that a protein supple ment in fattening and breeding cat tle rations will save on both corn and silage. Then, too, it has the add ed advantage of producing a super ior quality of beef. At? to the amount of this mater ial to food, the Stall- College special ist said that ordinarily in winter ra Hons for beef cattle from one to two pounds of a protein supplement is satisfactory if a fair quality of roughage is fed.

Manager Rodger^ and Pi e- uleuf Fowden are fishing around hn an iit.bei able class mall, and while they have made some progress m that di rection they are not quite ready to make a public- announceme nt Turning to the youths in this m r tion. President Fowden said yester day that he was going to see that every youngster in tins and the surrounding counties interested m playing hall w ill be giv?-h < very op i?)i tunny to make the team Sever a I county youths, including Dan J Wynne. Jr. of Williamston. and Kl wood Brown, both promising high school catchers, are 1111? rested in the professional game, and it is possi ble they will be seen around the 1 training camp about the middle of next month. Bertie County has one or two prospects interested in try ing out for places with tin- Martins, and a young man from Plymouth is j also interested These boys will be given every consideration possible, j and they will ge t places on the team j if they can make the grade, and if) they don't they will have lost little, j according to President Fowden Medium-Sized llo<;s Make Best Profits Interest in swine production is amounting, now that prices have def initely advanced. Ellis Vestal, exten sion swine specialist of N C. State College, reminds farmers that the size of their profits still will depend upon the way they feed and manage their hog herds. "For instance,'* the animal hus bandman said, tests have been con ducted that show the most profits are obtained from feeding out in termediate size hogs" The Federal Bureau of AnimaJ Industry has conducted a study on swine types at the Beltsville (Md ) Research Center since 1931, com paring the ability of hogs of differ ent types to produce pork efficient ly TTie study brought out the fol lowing facts: Large type and intermediate type sows farrowed and weaned a larger number of pigs per litter than small type sows Large and medium type pigs were heavier at birth and at weaning time. The medium type pigs made the* fastest gains, the large type pigs ranked next. However, the difference in feed requirements per 100 pounds gain was too small to in dicate an advantage for any of the three groups When the three lots were fed out to a final weight of 225 pounds, the large type under-finished When fed to the same degree of finish, the small type hogs weighed 143 pounds, the medium type 214 pounds, and the large type 225 pounds Considering all factors, Vestal says, the intermediate type is be lieved to be superior in its all-around ability to meet present-day market ing requirements. It has the weight advantage that is flexible enough to furnish a good market hog at weights of 200 to 235 pounds and heavier if conditions warrant.
