Shortage Of Food And Feed In N. C. Rural North Carolina is not pro ducing enough food and feed for its own needs, a survey just completed by the State College Extnesion Serv ice and the Triple-A indicates. In formation was obtained from farms in 21 counties, representing a cross section of the State. The summary reveals that 99 per cent of the farm families planted some sort of a home garden last year, but only 77 per cent planted a suf ficient acreage to provide an ade quate supply of fresh and canned vegetables for home use In live stock. 78 per cent of the farmers re ported owning at least one milk cow, but only 30 per cent owned enough cows to supply sufficient milk for j their families on a year-round basis; | 91 per cent reported some hogs, but i only 75 per cent owned enough for j an adequate supply of pork; 90 peri cent reported chickens, but there, were only 32 per cent with enough poultry to supply family needs. In reference to canning and storing foods, 92 per cent reported that some vegetables were canned while only ' 36 per cent canned enough to supply family health requirements; 93 per cent stored potatoes but only 79 per cent stored enough; 46 per cent stored beans and peas, but only 43 per cent stored a sufficiency; and 22 per cent put up syrup but only 16 per cent stored a sufficient amount. John W Goodman, assistant di rector of the extension service, says that the "Food and Feed for Family Living" campaign which has the ac-: tive cooperation and endorsement of Governor J. M. Broughton aims to correct at least a part of this condi tion Farm families who produce at least 75 per cent of their food and feed requirements in 1941 will re ceive certificates of merit signed by Governor Broughton and other lead All Hens To Produce For Nation's Defense The long arm of'the National De fense Program has now reached out and tagged every hen. says C F. Par rish, extension poultryman of N C. State College. Tlie U. S. Department of Agricul ture has Jlist launched a nation-wide 1 drive to produce every possible egg from present laying flocks this spring and summer in order to keep this country as well as others which are resisting agression well-supplied It has been pointed out that this goal rail be achieved partly by am ple feeding of birds on l^and and partly by filling up the nation's j poultry houses with laying birds this fall. Present plans call for a six per cent increase in egg produc tion or about 10,000,000 cases of 30 dozen eggs each during the next 15 months. "Every farm family should pro duce enough eggs each week of the year to supply their family needs as well as a surplus for the defense program," Purrish pointed out. "This can be accmophshed with little trou ble and expense." In his May suggestions to poultry men, the Stute College specialist ad vised producers not to sell out their flocks but to cull out the unprofit able birds instead. Where flocks are well fed, any bird that quits laying before September should be remov ed and a pullet grown to replace her. Other suggestions he issued were: Use good feed just as regularly as when egg prices were higher; keep the flock cool and well supplied with fresh water; treat the roost poles j with used motor oil at least once ev- I ery three weeks to control or pre vent red mite infestation in the hen house; plant summer green feed crops now; and dispose of or pen the male birds Increase Their Lespedeza Acreage Greally This Year Indications are that Forsyth Coun- j ty farmers have increased their les pedeza acreage greatly this year, says S. R. Mitchiner, assistant farm agent, of the N. C. State College Ex tension Service.
