Pick Cotton Early
And Keep It dean
'?? .'-V;
The beet ginning equipment in the
iountry cannot produce high quality
int from dirty, tasuhy, damp cotton,
laid J. C. Ferguson, extension gin
ipetialist at State College.
To get best prices for their cotton,
le urged growers to pick the seed
:otton as soon as the bolls are well
opened, and to keep the crop as free
!rom trash as possible. j
When a boll opens, the fluffy cot
ion has a bright, creamy white color
he market likes. But when exposed
;o sun and rain, the cotton becomes
lull and grey, which makes for a low
sr grade.
Newly opened bolls have a brilliant
luster that soon fades out with ex
posure to weather, Ferguson added.
While the gin can remove some of
the trash, he continued, it cannot re
move it all, and when trashy cotton
goes through the gin, the lint is
jsually damaged enough to lower the
grade materially.
Early picked cotton is not only
more lustrious, he added, but it is
rleaner?the longer that lint is ex
posed to weather, the greater its
:hance of getting dirty.
Cotton that is picked early in the
season should be kept separate from
that picked later, Ferguson said, as
it is usually of better quality.
And if tiie cotton is damp when
picked, be sure to give it time to dry
before it is taken to the gin.
Seed cotton should be stored loose
ly in a dry place, and stirred frequent
ly to facilitate drying.
Legume Crops Make
Nutritious Forage
Legume crops, well known as soil
milders, also make excellent forage
for livestock.
They give larger yields of more
lutritious Lay than the common hay
:rops, said Dr. Frank Sherwood, nu
rritiion chemst of the central experi
nent station at State College.
Since legumes are more palatable
;han other hays, he continued, live
stock will eat them with less waste.
Legumes are rich in protein ele
nents not found in the proteins of
:ereal or grain crops.
Animals need all the elements in
orming skin, wool, or horn material,
n building muscles, and for internal
irgans and tissues. A combination
>f legumes and corn provide an ex
cellent protein mixture for cattle.
Legume hays are too bulky for
- IUIIII) !!?? ? ? n?????iifHiiiii ill ? III ? II
" ' ? ?
swine, however, and the corn fed . to
swine should be supplemented with
concentrated proteins such as is con
tained in fish meal or tankage.
Legumes are rich in . but!
contain s small amount of phosphor
ous. Cereal grains and. especially
cottonseed meal and soybean meal
are rich in phosphorous and supply
this material when included in the
animals ration.
The high vitamin content of le
gumes also make them a good feed
for milk cows and growing animals.
Only fresh, tender pasturage exceeds
legume hay in vitamin content
If young pigs do not have the run
of a pasture, as little as five per cent
good legume hay added to their ration
will determine the difference between
profit and loss?even loss of the pigs.
"
Sad Colors Dampen
Spirits of Family
"Give me a rug with a color like
mashed sweet potatoes ? you know
we have boys in the house."
That was a statement Miss Pauline
Gordon, of State College, heard a
friend make to a salesman while buy
ing a rug for the dining room.
"Why should we continue to live
with the same old dreary things just
because our forebears did? Miss
Gordon asked. - __ i
"If I were asked to name one fault
most of us have in home furnishings,
it would be sad colors?what we call
useful shades that will not show stain
or soil easily." ?
Mr. and Mrs. Tom Corn well, of
Cleveland County, realized that some
thing was wrong with their living
room, crowded with the accumulations
of a life-time, Miss Gordon said.
So they called in their county home
demonstration agent and planned
some drastic changes. -
Down came the crayon portraits
and cluttering bric-a-brac, out went
the dreary linoleum. In their stead
were placed two good pictures, one
over the mantel and the other over
an old table that "no one thought
could look like such a choice piece of
furniture until it had been refinish
ed."
Narrow, dark drapes were removed
from the windows so the sunlight
could flood the room. Furniture was
placed for harmony and balance and
cheerful colors were introduced.
Twelve big hooks for coats and
hats were removed from the front
hall where they, together with the
arrajr of hats and coats, had been an
eye-sore for years.
"You just ought to see the differ
ence," Miss Gordon added.
