Hints To Farm
Homemakers
by Ruth Current
Light-colored umbrellas that be
come dingy or spotted with soil often
may be cleaned successfully at home
by a ssapsuds shampoo, textile spec
ialists say. Before washing, open
the umbrella and brush fabric with
a clothes brush to remove loose dust
or dry mud. Any spots which look
like grease spots should be sponged
with cleaning fluid.
Hoi-:) the umbrella over tub and
go over the outside with a soft brush
dippe:) in thick lukeworm suds of mild
soap. Give special attention to the
center fold of each section where the
fabric usually shows the most sfiil.
Handle and wash gently to avoid
strain on the stretched fabric. An
easy way to rinse the umbrella is to
hold under a spray of lukewarm
water, or it may be rinsed by pour
ing cietr water from a bowl over it.
Leave the umbrella open tj dry.
An i.mbrella allowed to knock a
bout lire floor of a closet or automo
bile o-es not keep its good looks long.
To make it last and give good service,
shake well after using in the rain,
leave open until dry, then fold and
hang it in a clean, dark closet to pre
vent fading. -Umbrellas put away
damp e .specially in summer, are like
ly to rr.ildew.
Pil'.cw slips that wear out before
their time may have been doing dou
ble dwy as laundry bags. The extra
wear from dragging and pulling and
the mere strenuous washing because
of ex;ra soil takes its toll of the fabric.

Soybeans and Sudan grass planted
together in the same field make
an excellent temporary pasture for
summer and furnish relatively heavy
amounts of grazing, say Extension
Service agronomists at State College.
The two crops are not planted at
the same time because the soybeans
must be allowed to make about 6
inches of growth before the Sudan
grass is planted. This also allows
the grower to cultivate the soy
beans. Plant soybeans in two-foot rows
of fertilizer

has made improvements in the plant

has been semi-airconditioned by the
installation of a large attic exhaust
fan in preparation for summer school.
The total enrollment for the past
twelve months is 93, which in view
of the war-time calls upon young
men "is an excellent attendance.
There has been an emphasis upon
spiritual development in the college

Seed 15 pounds of Sudan grass
seed per acre in the middles with
rn extra application of 300 pounds
of fertilizer relatively high in ni
trogen. If an offset hitch is used,
the Sudan grass can be seeded a
bout 6 inches from the soybeans
and this will enable the cattle to
graze down the row without so
much damage to the crop.
When the Sudan grass is about
6 to 7 inches high, the temporary
grazing crop should be topdressed
with 200 pounds of nitrate of soda
per acre to give succulent growth.
Growers have found that heavy
seeding of fall and winter grazing
crops by September 1 and good ferti
lization -enables the crops to make
an excellent sod, pay for themselves
.luring the fall months, and give
excellent grazing during early spring
before pastures make the necessary
six inches of growth.
These temporary crops furnish the
cheapest feed grown on the farm,
according to the reports of the far
mers. Growers Control
Blue Mold Disease
Three Durham county tobacco far
mers have proven beyond a doubt
that blue mold can be controlled in
the worst of years and that "it is
foolishness to run all over the coun
try looking for plants and risk the
anger of introducing all kinds of
tobacco diseases on your farm."
R. L. Stokes of Durham, Route 5;
George M. Pope of New Hope; and
C. B. Green of Cedar Fork sprayed
their tobacco beds with 6 appli
cations of Fermate solution at a
cost of 67 cents per 100 square yards
for material in control demonstra
tions under the supervision of
County Agent W. B. Pace of the
State College Extension Service.
On the unsprayed check beds
practically all of the plants were
killed by blue mold and those that
did survive were late for setting in
a year like the present one.
From 300 square yards of sprayed
hied, Pop)? .set 6 acres and had
enough plants left over for 2 acres,
while his neighbors were going
"east" for plants, according to Pace.
Green set 5 acres from 300 square
yards and there were enough heal'hy
plants left to set about 10 extra
acres. He had a few plants left
on his unsprayed check bed but they
were about 10 days late for setting.
He is so anxious for his neighbors
to' benefit from his experience that
he plans for them to use bed spare
at a central location on his farm
so that all beds can be sprayed at
the same time with his equipment.
Spraying is a preventative treat
ment and must be begun ahead oF
the appearance of blue mold, Pace
says. The gas tre.Rment with PDB
can be effectively used after b! i?
nofct has come into the beds.

Feed That Soil!
Fertiliicri increase crop yields. That
mi earn more food and feed for a "fight
ing nation.
Wartime farming has raised con
omplion of nitrogen, phosphoric acid
and potash in fertilisers about 85 per
cent above the estimated pre-war aver
age, according to the War Food Admin
istration. Continued high production
needs call for utilization ol available
supplies to the best possible advantage
in 1945. "
Spreading fertilisers where trtcy are
needed most, with minimum of watte,
will aid in raising larger crops from the
aame acreage. Pasture and forage crops,
legomea and grasses, peanuts sugar
beets, cotton, corn, wheat, potatoes, to
baccothese are some that have showed
imnoatant increases in acre yield
through the nse of fertiliser. Improve
ment in pastureland hat been reflected
in better livestock.
Assistance may be received through
the Agricultural Adjustment Agency
for applying phosphate and potash fer
tilisers an pastures, and en specified
lr gurnet aaa grasses.
