To all to Whom These Presents May Come Greeting: Whereas, It appears to my satis faction, by duly authenticated re cord of the proceedings for the vol untary dissolution thereof by the Of Interest to Farmers State College Answers Timely Farm Questions Q: What good crop can I plant to increase my feed supply? A: The Agronomists at State Col lege say that alfalfa, which can be grown on fertile, medium-heavy, well-drained lands in all sections of North Carolina, will produce mnore tons of high quality hay per acre than any other legume crop. They advise a few acres on every farm. They al so suggest that you put in an acreage of vetch or one of the clovers and don't forget an early sowing of barley, oats and rye for; grazing. See your county agent for full instructions on growing alfalfa, because it is a crop that must be carefully sown by gett ing the land in the right condition, liming the land, and inocculating the seed. Q: What is the best variety of bar ley for me to plant? I want to grow a "winter corn crop." A: Dr. E. R. Collins, in charge of Agronomy Extension at State College, advises that you plant Sunrise, Da vidson, Randolph or Iredell for grain. If you are especially interested in grazing some, he suggests one of the last three mentioned. Sunrise is not recommended for grazing. Some years dry weather almost ruins your com crop and under average conditions, bareley has a better chance of making a good yield. In spite of the very hard winter, some growers have re ported yields of fifty to sixty bushels of bai ley per acre this year. Q: Are sunflower seed a good feed for poultry? A: Under existing feed shortages. Prof. Roy S. Dearstyne of the Poultry Department at State College advises that sunflower seed can be fed in moderation along with scratch feeds for poultry. These seed are not being grown commercially as a source of poultry feed. O WHEAT Present legislation does not provide for wheat payments in 1944. Soil building practice payments will be made for approved practices carried out during the 1944 program year. unanimous consent of all of the stockholders, deposited in my of fice, that the REAVES DRUG STORE, INCORPORATED, a cor poration of this State, whose prin cipal office is situated at No Main Street, in the Town of Rae ford, County of Hoke, State of North Carolina, (L.

C. 9-11 Plan Storage For Sweet Potatoes Farmers should plan to cure their sweet potatoes and market them in an orderly manner or many thousands of bushels of this important food crop will be lost this next fall and winter, say horticultural specialists of the State College Extension Service. Recent estimates indicate that the total sweet potato acreage will proba bly be about one third larger than last year and, with any thing like nor mal growing conditions, there will be a bumper crop. The officials point out that if the large crop is "dumped" on the market, without being properly harvested, graded and cured, the price support measures are bound to prove inadequate. It has been estimated that North Carolina has storage capacity for on ly about one-fourth of the coming crop and growers are urged to plan now for the proper handling and stor ing of the crop. The Agricultural Engineering De partment at State College has recent ly published plans for a small curing unit that will handle from 80 to 200 bushels and requests have been re ceived for 743 blue prints in recent days. Thousands of bushels of pota toes are lost every year by farmers who depend on the "bank method" of saving the crop and the new plan will save enough potatoes to pay for the cost of building the small unit, which is placed on skids. Growers wishing to build perma nent storage units of 500 to 15,000 bushels should write the Agricultur al Engineering Department, State College, Raleigh for free plans. This department also has plans for the con version of tobacco barns into sweet potato curing plants. O Protect Grain With Carbon Bisulphide Stored grain may be treated with carbon bisulphide to prevent damage from weevils and bran bugs, says J. Myron Maxwell, in charge of Exten sion Entomology at N. C. State Col lege. Weevils are the most injurious because they attack the sound grains. Bran bugs can cause the grain to heat and they feed on the cracked grains. Maxwell recommends that a fairly air tight bin or room be used for fu migation. During the fumigation pro cess, the grain should be confined to a small space and piled from four to six feet deep. The carbon bisulphide should be applied directly to the top surface of the grain and about three gallons per 1,000 bushels of grain is sufficient, according to the entomolo gist. The storage space needs to be clos ed immediately after applying the fu migant so that the stored grain can be left under treatment for 24 to 48 hours before it is necessary to air out the storage space. It should be remembered that the carbon bisulphide is explosive and highly inflamable. No flames should be brought near it The grain should be examined at monthly intervals and the fumigation process be repeated at the first signs of insect activity. For further information on control ling instcts in stored grains, interest ed growers should write to the Exten sion Entomologist at State College, Raleigh. O WHEAT No wheat marketing quotas will ap ply for the 1944 marketing year and no payments will be conditioned up on meeting or planting within goals, say extension officials at N. C. State College. O PRESSURE CANNERS The WPB has reported that pro duction of steam pressure canners is slower than had been anticipated. The program called for 275,000 and about 123,000 were completed by Au gust 1. O FERTILIZERS Fertilizer manufacturers will have to manufacture their goods on a twelve month basis, because of unu sual conditions, and farmers will have to buy earlier than usual to help clear the plants. O MILK Milk, butter, cheese, ice cream and other dairy products annually create an output valued at 5 1-2 billion dol lars. One out of every 15 families in the U. S. is dependent on milk for a livelihood. O COTTON Mississippi is the only state having a larger cotton acreage in 1943 than in 1942. North Carolina has planted below her permitted acreage. O HOGS Farmers are asked to market hogs at not heavier than 230 pounds. It takes more feed to put an extra pound on heavy hogs. O CANMNO Home canners are warned that "canning powders" and other chemi cal preservatives should not be used in home canning, say Home Demon stration officials at State College. Miss Hall Gives Report In July Eleven home demonstration clubs met in Hoke county in July. The meetings were attended by 128 club women. "Busy Day Meals" was the major project. Scalloped soup mix ture and fruit cobbler were prepared and served at the meetings. There has never been a greater de mand for assistance with canning, the borrowing of pressure cookers and general interest in food preservation. The four pressure cookers loaned from the home agent's office have been in constant use during the month. Hun dreds of jars of food have been cann ed in these four cookers alone. Mrs. J. A. Newton, who borrowed a pres sure cooker for the Wayside commu nity women to use for a week; said. "I don't think the cooker got cold all the time we had it." Mrs. Alton Potter, a Rockfish club member, has assisted every person in her neighborhood with canning. She and Mrs. J. H. Plummer also brought Mrs. Potter's pressure cooker to Rae ford where they assisted several wo men in town. Mrs. N. H. G. Balfour reports that the tenants on their farm are canning one day a week at the Balfour can nery. The community canning center in Raeford is being patronized by the town and county women. Three groups, one from Rockfish, one from Ashmont, and one from Mildouson, have used the cannery for preserving vegetables for the lunch rooms at their respective schools. The Arabia club invited a group from the Dundarrach community to their club meeting. Plans were made at the time to can for the Mildouson lunch room. After the meeting a de lightful picnic supper was enjoyed. The Rockfish club women voted to can the school lunch room each Wednes day in August instead of having an HOKE AUTO CO'S.
