honor of the war
May 26, Poppy Day.
at and ha? its I
Miss Mamie
of Fagnville Unit I
of the Amerioan Legion Auxiliary,!
which i? computing preparations terl
bearvance of Poppy Day "
The poppies has
American Legion
from Fmysttevills, where they
maA> by disabled veterans of both
world wars. Miss Davis told about]
m as they wen being sorted,
nted and made ready for distri
bution. 1
"As they are made by hand, no two
of the flowers are exactly alike,"
said. "Sons come from the ha
of men who were hurt 28 years ago in
the battles of the first world war. I
Others have been sloped by young
veterans injured m Europe or in the I
Pacific in the second conflict, who
made poppies this year for the first I
time. If wo could know the stories I
of all those veterans, old and young,
they would make an epic of service I
and suffering for the security oft
America.
"Making the poppies has two im-J
portent benefits for the disabled l
veterans," Mies Davis continued, j
"First, it enables them to earn money.
The American Legion Auxiliary pays!
than for every poppy they make.
TP actually earn some money again
Is u encouraging experience for these I
men, after long months of helpless
ness. Most of them send the money
home to their families.
"Second, the work is valuable as]
occupational therapy. It occupies
their hands and minds and helps them
get well.
"I hope everyone who puts on al
poppy on Poppy Day will look closely I
at the little flower and think of the
men who make the poppies, what they I
have been through and what they axel
still enduring because of their war
service. Then K. will be understood
that the poppy is not just a machine-1
made tag, but a carefully shaped
symbol of remembrance made by the
disabled in honor of their departed]
comrades."
Turkey Breeding On
Upgrade In Alexanderl
Turkey raising is off to a good]
start m Alexander and surrounding
counties this year, according to a re
port >y County Agent fl. C. Colvard]
of the State College Extension Ser
vice.
Better poults have been secured
and in many cases, bettor rearing
methods are bring followed, Colvard |
Planners. in the Stoney Point sec
tion of Alexander County have start
ed larger numbers of poults and thus
far thi? geason have observed en
couraging refculte. Sledge Smith will
produce about 2,000 turkeys, Jack
Lackey, 600; W. H. Norton, 1,200,
and Eveiette Grant, 600.
"Lackey is raising his flock in two
broods of 300 each in range shelters,"
the county agent reported. "Smooth
surface roofing was placed over the
wire floor on which crashed corn
cobs are being used for litter. The
sides of the shelter are enclosed by
glass cloth which permit the penetra
tion of beneficial sunlight. Leg
wrist iiisis in the birds is almost en
tirely eliminated when all-da^ sun
light is peritaitted to bathe the turkey
bouse.
"An oil-bcrning brooder is used in
bouse to maintain even tempera
tures during days of variable spring
weather."
Smith is following similar produc
tion practices except that five of his
seven pens of turkeys are being rear
ed in an enclosed structure originally
used aa a dressing plant These birds
get extra daily rations of cod liver
oil to offset the difference in I
light 'V
Thus far in the season, losses to^i
producers have bean exceptionally
low.

QUESTION: May
strawberry plants be used
fuMy In this state* , WM
ANSWER: Ysi, decidedly. Grow
ers in the Chadbum-Wallace area
lost more than 1100,000 to this year's
crop by importing strains of plants
which proved to be sterile hut whidi
had been advertised as "improved"
types of established varieties. Home
grown plants will be highly satisfac
tory provided inspections for the con
trol of disease and insects are proper
ly made. - I
Question: Why are North Caro
lina poultrymen having trouble get
ting chicks from the Rice Leghorn
Farm in Missouri?
ANSWER: Because that firm does
not yet have the proper labels or pul
lorum control certificates from the
Missouri Livestock Sanitary Board.
North Carolina law requires certifi
cation that brought into the
state shall have lese than two per
cent pullorum infection. The same
requirements are applicable to state
hatcheries.

Old Alfalfa Theory
Disapproved In Madison
The old theory that alfalfa would
grow on well-drained "super-produc
tive" soils, has been conclusively dis
approved this year by Madison Coun
ty farmers .according to Assistant
County Agent John E. Walkenof the
State College Extension Service.
"Several Madison farmers have had
marked success in growing alfalfa on
relatively thin land by using lime,
phosphate and potash liberally,"
Walker declared.
Olin Jarrett of Rt 1, Marshall,
seeded 10 scree of alfalfa hi thin,
hillside land in March, 1944, and in
four summer cuttings last year har
vested m.ore than three tons of hay
per acre. Contending that "It is
much cheaper to buy lime, phosphate,
borax and potash than it is to take
tobacco money and buy bay," Jarrett
followed en intensive fertilisation
plan and used high quality Kansas
seed.
In the spring of 1944 his well-lim
ed alfalfa land was treated with 600
pounds of 20 per cent phosphate, 60
pounds of 60 par cent murate of
potash and 25 pounds of agricultural
borax to. the acre. A year later, 400
pounds of phosphate and another 60
pounds of potash per acre were add
ed.
R. R. Ramsey, Walnut Community
dairyman, who seeded alfalfa on a
hillside lest September, now has a
fine even "crop averaging well above
a foot in height He also applied
recommended fertilizers liberally.
W. Reams of Ptaey Grove prov
ed to his own satisfaction in produc
ing a five-acre crop of alfalfa that
his crops simply will not grow in
acid land unless lime is applied. An
nual applications of lime, were made
in the field for three years prior to
seeding. A quarter-acre plot which
was deliberately not limed, now is
devoid of alfalfa while the remainder
of the field is great with a healthy
crop.
The Yatacy Comity Guernsey As
sociation recently sold 26 good ani
mals of that breed for an average of
(261 each.
* iirrrmi
The soft cool strike has already
been reflected in the reduced supplies
of fertilisers coming Into North Caro

College Cows Win
National Approval
The Holatein-Friaaian -Association
of America has announced that two
registered Holatein cows in the dairy
herd at North Carolina State Col
lege, Raleigh, have recently complet
ed official production records in herd
teat of more than 400 pounds of but
terfai.
The highest producer of the two;
was North Carolina Echo 7th 2097439,
with a record of 471 pounds of but
terfat and 13,225 pounds of milk.
This is more than two and a half
times the production of the nation's
average cow. The record was made
in 366 days at two milking* daily.
Echo 7th is four years and 11 mouths
of age and was sired by the famous
Osborndale Daniel Inks May, 726892.
The second Jiigh producer is North
Carolina Echo 2nd, 1770760, with 448
pounds of butterfat and 12,391 pounds
of milk, made in 344 days on twice
daily mUkfaigo. Echo 2nd is nine
years, 11 months old, and was sired
by North Carolina State Butterboy,
647045.
These and other purebred animals
of various types have been used in A
20-year-old program to bolster pri
vate herds iri the state. Despite the
sale of many of its top gnlmals to
fanners over the years, the college
herds have been gradually improved
by the introduction of improved
breeding stock.
