THURSDAY, SEPT. 9, 1943 THE NEWS JOURNAL, RAEFORD, N. C. PAGE NINE State College Answers Timely Farm Questions Q. When is the best time of the year to cut pulpwood? A. You can cut pulpwood any month in the year, if it is shipped rough, or in the bark, says R. W. Graeber, in charge of Extension For estry. He points out that if the wood is to be peeled, spring and early sum mer are the best periods. Pulp mills now buy most of the pine wood in the bark. Two mills buy North Carolina hardwoods in bark and one mill re quires peeled wood. Winter months are ideal for cutting puipwooo 10 improve your woods by removing the low-grade, cull trees and thinning over-crowded stands. Your county agent can help you decide on what to cut. J. Can I "overfeed" my dairy cows? A. Each cow should be fed accord ing to her ability to produce milk. Feeding the cow a full ralion means that the animal should receive. enough feeds to maintain her body weight and also enffugh to produce all the milk of which she is capable. Q. How should barley, wheat and rye be fed to workstock? A. Oats and corn are the standard rations for horses and mules, accord ing to L. I. Case, Extension animal husbandman at N. C. State College. He advises that barley, wheat and rye be ground if fed to workstock. The last two should generally be mix ed with other feeds to prevent diges tive disturbances. He pointed out that cottonseed meal also is often used as a protein supplement but that it is good practice not to feed more than one pound of the meal per 1,000 pounds of liveweight of the horse or mule. OUR DEMOCRACY- - by Mat flock J. Should 1 call my laying heavy or light this fall? A. Because of the shortage of feeds, particularly the proteins, you should cull your flock thoroughly this fall and remove all non-layers, says R. S. Dearstyne, head of the poultry department at State College. Q. What do they make out of the pulpwood which I am cutting in my spare time to help in the war effort? A. Your pulpwood will go into fi berboard, boxes, and paper contain ers to ship food, shells, gun parts and supplies of all kinds to our armed for ces, says R. W.

A cord of wood from your farm can be made into powder to Are two rounds of a 16-inch naval gun. Q. What is the best method of sow ing small grains? A. The drill is by far the best me thod of sowing small grains, say the agronomists at State College. Less seed are needed and there is more uniform distribution of seed. They are covered from 1 to 1 1-2 inches deep, which gives more satisfactory germination and permits deep rooting of the plants. These deeper roots hold the plants in place when freezing "heaves" the topsoil and this helps to prevent winter killing. Where grain is sown broadcast, it should be cover ed with a section harrow. If a roller or cultipacker follows the section har row, the seed bed is made firm and a better stand is obtained . to m ' Ji i Jimmy's over there tj now, lighting our enemies to keep the Start and Stripes flying.

Despite war-time restrictions, bus ses are now carrying more than half of all Inter-city passengers and could assume an even greater burden of es sential travel if road speed limitations were eased, according to the Nation el Association of Motor Bus Operat ors. Many of the restrictions which hampered the bus operators in meet ing war-time transportation demands have been partially overcome, the as sociation points out, but the industry could make a greater contribution if the highway speed limit for the inter city carriers were raised. The asso ciation's report shows that the reduc tion in maximum speed to 35 miles per hour has failed to produce appprecia ble savings in either rubber or motor fuel so far as the inter-city bus in dustry is concerned. On the other hand, the lower speeds have inter fered with the efficiency of bus oper ation by lengthening schedules 30 per cent, reducing carrying capacity, re quiring more manpower in driver and mechanic personnel, and causing un due wear upon engines, transmissions, and clutches. Leaders of the industry contend that if inter-city buses were allowed to operate at a maximum of 45 miles per hour on the open highway, a sub stantially increased number of pas sengers could be carried without ad ditional equipment or personnel. The extent of the industry's con tribution to war-time transportation needs is reported in a survey of cur rent operating conditions that was made for the association by impartial investigators. The findings have been presented to government agen cies and fact-finding organizations to acquaint them with the vital part the bus industry is playing in the war ef fort and to indicate how the easing of certain restrictions would enable the highway passenger carriers to as- Professional Cards NOTARY PUBLIC See RALPH CHAPMAN.

"The demand for public transpor tation has grown to gigantic propor tions," said Arthur M. Hill, president of the bus operators organization. "This is because of the tremendous number of men and women in the armed forces and the unprecedented employment in war industries, cou pled with the fact that gas and tire rationing has so drastically curtained the use of privately-owned automo biles. In 1942, the inter-city buses carried 692,000,000 passengers and this all-time record will be greatly surpassed this year." O FOREST PRODUCTS The total volume of forest products in 1943 will fall below military needs and essential civilian requirements, says the OWI. Farmers will need to cut additional lumber, logs, and pulp wood. O CIXLING Because of the existing food short age, laying flocks should be closely culled and all non-layers removed. The protein supply for feeds is par ticularly short. LEGAL NOTICES ADMINISTRATRIX'S NOTICE The undersigned, having qualified as administratrix of the estate of the late C. J.
