Hr- ills such as this are. frequently en countered in the numerous experiments on cottonseed treatment con ducted by the Experiment Station. Similar results are found to 0.-vur under practical farm conditions as is shown by a 4-year summary of cotton-**.: treatment demonstrations conducted by the Extension Service. Result-- • .m a total of »1 demon strations conducted over the 4-year period , wed that «n average of 4JI plants per 100 feet ol row emerged from . sled seed whig untreated seed only produced an average of :50ft seediim - per 100 feet of row. This means that treated seed pr.aimed over 41 pc e r.t more free logs than did untreated seed. Three times as many plan's wen killed le sore shin in untreated as in treated rows and 76 f ; more- of the living seedlings bad disease in untreated rows than in treated row .. At poking time there was an averages of 134 plants per 100 feet ol row from treated seed and only 101 per 100 feet of row in untreated rows. Better stands mean higher yields. Later work by the Exp-run. nt Station shows that where cotton seed of good germination is properly treated farmers may safely reduce their seeding rate and even avoid thinning.

With this snapshot Mrs. M. K. Wilson o! Seattle, Washington, won the SISOO grand prize in the Newspaper National Snapshot Awards. It also bears out my idea i that any mother who is alert for j good picture situations will find j many opportunities to make won derful snapshots.

New --.Zealand spirt* ..-a and corn. There A some variation in hardi ness within the groups and even between verities of the same crop. The black valentine variety of •'hup bran is more hardy to cool temperatures thu nothers, smooth seeded garden peas may be plant ed earlier than wrinkled seeded varieties; Cucumbers will with stand cooler temperatures than melons. Snap beans will withstand cooler soil temperatures than lima beans and. therefore may be planted earlier.

QUESTION: How many horses and mules are there on North Carolina farms? How many trac tors' 1 ANSWER; In 1950 there were 355,077 horses and mules and 73.- 529 tractors on Tar Heel farms, in 1930 the number of workstock was more than 300,000 and the number of tractors was 11,420. Another indication of the trend to ward mechanization is shown by the fact tha! the number of com bines on farms in the- State has increased from 3 904 in 1943 to 13.252 in 1950. QUESTION: What practices should i follow in 1952 to make good yields of cotton per acre? ANSWER: Research and farmer, experience have shown that there are seven practices that a farmer j must follow to make good cotton ! yields. They are: plant recoin- j mended seed; lime and fertilise as needed: distribute fertilizer! properly; mechanize planting and cultivation; apply sidedressing ac-1 cording to needs; follow complete ; insect control program; and sell' RECEIVES AIR FORCE MEDAL Private G.
