PLANNING TO HOLD
MANY CONFERENCES
Instead of the usual agricultural
extension conference which is held
cach winter at State College, a series
of nine sectional conferences will bo
held in December and January to
which prominent farmers and educa
.ors will be invited,
"This new plan of extension meet
ing will seek to develop programs of
agricultural advancement by sections
and will aid the college workers in
iletermining the needs of each section
und work to that end," says Dean I.
0. Sohaub in announcing the new
*ype of conference. "Each county
tiome and farm agent will attend the
.?onference for his community and
.vill invite at least two good farmers
t;nd two leading farm women from
:ach county to participate in the dis
cussions. We shall have a represen
tation present from each of the de
partments in the school of agriculture
it State College and especially will
ive discuss the outlook for 1932. After ?
:hat, committees will be organized to
pass upon recommendations for the '
.'oming year. These committee re- i
ports will be fully discussed before
idoption."
Mr. Schaub said that the nine con- !
ferences would last two days each |
ind would be held as follows: Wilm
tigton, December I and 2; New Bern r
December 3 and 4; Edentcn, Decem
jert 8 and 9 ; Rocky Mount, December
10 and 11; Asheville, December 14
ind 15; Statesville, December 16 and ;
L7 ; Durham, January 5 and G; Fay
;tteville, January 7 and 8, and Win
ston-Salem, January 13 and 14. <
One of the important things to be i
studied will be ways and means of !
lecreasing the cotton acreage next
season by 500,000 acres and the other 1
iO-ealled cash crops in like propor- !
;ion. What should take the place of
hose crops will be another import
in t matter to be decided upon by the ]
conference.
<
In many cities and towns through- <
>ut the country there is a commend- i
i bit; movement on foot to do away
vith the old method of disposing of i
he leaves which cover lawns and i
gardens during the fall.
The customary practice of burning n
?rentes a vicious smoke nuisance !(
vhich is objected to by even the most j]
'air-minded citizen. Often the leaves
ire raked into the street gutters to j
>e burned. While this is a reason-;!
ible place from the standpoint of I
ire hazard, it may be quite destruc- ;
ive to the pavement. Epsccially is i
his true if the street is paved with
rushed stone bound together with a i
ar or asphaltic material. The dam
ige is evidenced in later months by
i crumbling or disintegration of the i
treet surface. s
A useful method of disposal which 1
s meeting with almost universal ap
iroval is to compost the leaves. This '
5 easily done by piling alternate 1
avers of leaves and dirt on the
ground or in a rough wooden box of >
itable size. r
