Agricultural News Notes
By S. J. Kirbj'.
MOHR ABOUT TOHACW
In connection with the discussion
of tobacco seed selected for disease
resistance in last week’s article,
source for the seed of the Kelly Pride
variety was given. E. G. Metcalf
of Democrat, in Buncombe county
being a nearby producer of tliis seed.
A source of the Judy Pride, root
rot resisting seed is A. A. Howell of
Betbpage, Tenn. Route 4. These
names are given simply as an accom
modation to our growers, and in no
wise to promote any man’s special
business enterprise. Many of tlie
Madison county growers secure seed
from these two sources.
The oat crop considered for direct
financial returns, would take second
ary place. Yet it fits in well with the
crop rotation, makes a good nurse
crop for either clover or pasture, and
has considerable value as an import
ant feed for all kinds oflivestoctk and
porfltry. The crop often pays little
more than the cost of production,
but can be made of greater value to
our local people. Better seed, of
higher yielding adapted varities
would do much to accomplish tliis
end. Too much of the seed used here
is of the feed-oat quality, and often
consist of a mixture of oats, wheat,
rye, barley, cockerel, and onions.
Probably the best variety to use
for early spring planting in this
section is the Fulgham. Certified
seed of this variety are availale at a
very loiv cost. Several of the best
oat growers in this section use this
variety. And futhermore, the.se men
seed from two to three bushels per
acre. It is to be hoped that their
practice will be adopted on more
farms in the near future. The value
of the oat crop can be greatly in
creased.
i.espedeza
Lospedeza is a crop about which
a great deal is being written and said
in lute years in all parts of this state.
This legume was seeded to only a few
acres as late as 1918, and now
covers lumdreds of thousands of
acres in this state. Lespedeza, when
considered for pasture, hay, soil im
provement, or a seed crop, is one of
considerable value, and wide adap
tation. There are several varieties
of this legume. Veryfewareadapted
here. The Korean Lespedeza does
have an important place evenat this
high elevation. It matures its seed
at from four to six weeks earlier than
the other varities, and trials so far
made, indicate that it is the kind
that should be used in this section of
the state. Lespedeza imiy be seeded
broadcast on oats, wheat, or rye
while the ground is frozen during
the month of March with no culti
vation. Tlien on broomsedge,
barren fields, and on slopes where the
soil has been eroded, or washed
away, seed may be scattered and a
good catch secured. To be sure,
better results could be secured w«irh
a light discing or harrowing to make
a, seed bod on laud which has not
been in cultivation, but lesjjedeza is
one of the easiest crops grown with
which to get a start and to produce
jirofitable yields.
UATliS OF SEKMNO
If seed are sown for soil improve
ment, ten or fifteen pounds per acre
will give good I’osnlts. Where the
crop is seeded for hay, or seed pro-
duchion, a seeding as heavy as 20 to
JO ptiunds per acre isreccommemled.
Where it is seeded for pasture im
provement, as low as five to ten
poiituls per acre is sometimes used,
though it is thought that from 10
to 15 pounds per acre is better. In
buying lespedeza seed, denuind certi
fied seed; at least demand dodder-
fre seed.

Information of Value to Vet
erans and Families—Should
Keep Record in Order.
In response to many inquiries and
to inform war veterans of benefits
due their families on the death of
person.s who have served in the Ar
my or Navy in time of war, some ex
tracts from regulations of the Vet
erans Administration are published
herewith. The sum of |100 is pro
posed for funeral expenses in the fol
lowing cases;
WJiere a veteran dies while receiv
ing from the Administration com-
I)enaation or vocational training;
Where a veteran dies before it is
determined compensation is payable,
that is befoi'e his claim is-allowed,
and it is subsequently iound that he
is entitled to compensation;
"Where a veteran of any war dies
and it is shown by affidavit by his
next of kin, other near relative, or
friend acquainted with the facts,
that he did not leave net assets in
excess of $1,000.
The term •‘veteran of army war”
means any person who served and
was not dishonorably discharged du
ring the .Mexican War, Civil War,
.Spanish War, World W'ar, Indian
W'ars, Philippine Insurrection, Boxer
Rebellion, Cuban Pacification, Nica
raguan Campaign, Vera Cruz Expe
dition, the Punitive Expedition into
Mexico, and other campaigns in
which the armed forces of the Lnited
States were engaged, including
nurses.
in all cases of claims for funeral
expenses under the regulations,
proof of death must be submitted,
and in the case of “veterans of any
” such claims must be filed on
Form 5-J6, Revised, “.Affidavit Sup
porting Burial Claim.” These forms
may be had from the Regional Offiee .
of the Veterans AdminLstration,
Charlotte, and must give all the in
formation called for.
A flag, to drape the casket of any
veteran, is furnished free on applica
tion to the postmaster. The Quar
termaster General, Washington, I).
C.j will furnish headstones to mark
the graves of soldiers, sailors, n
ines and nurses who served in the
Army or Navy of the United States
or the Confederate State.s.
It is suggested that families of
veterans file this for reference.
HIGG-INS.
Mad Dogs Must Be Checked
We are at present beiiigthreatened
with a serious outbreak of rabies
\n Yancey county.
Last'I observed A cow that was
infected with the disease. A case
which deatWwas unavoidable. Cattle
are not spreaders of this disease,
and the conclusion was drawn that
the animal had been bitten by a mad
dog.
There have been a number of re
ports about mad dogs raging in
various sections of the county. We
haven't any way of knowing whether
or not dogs have been bitten, unless
they have been housed, and very few
ha ve. Bo it will not be unreasonable
to expect an outbreak of the disease
at anj'time, of such volume that a
heavy loss of livestock and human
life may result.
This danger can beeliniinated only
by keeping dogs confined orniuzzied.
The state law considers dogs as
other livestock, and it is not legal
for them to run loose over the coun
try.
Some of our best citizens who are
lovers of good dogs are already on the
warpath for stray dogs that are
preying over the country, day and
night, looking fora. cha.nce to fill
themselves with eggs, chickens or
hog feed. Most of such dogs are
worthless, and are constituting a
dangerous nuisa,nce.
All of us readily realize that people
who own (logs should exercise any
necessaay ])recautioii8 to keep their
dogs from damaging or destroying
the property of others. Now is the
time to give the matter a serious
thought, before any futlier damage
is done.
An effective measure in combating
rabies, and also one that is simple
enough for anyone to do, is: keep
dogs confined or muzzled. This
should certainly be done at least
until the present danger is eased,
which is about seventy days.
