W. Pou. county agent of Forsyth County and veteran alfalfa grower. "Most Piedmont soils, if properly j prepared, will grow alfalfa profitably," says Mr. Pou. "The heavy, clay soils will maintain a stand of the crop longer than will the sandy, lighter soils. It is preferable that land j intended for alfalfa should have some! previous treatment. This usually canj ,v. uiivab uie iUij Oi H 3in= !c crop. Land that has previously frown corn or cotton i3 better to begin with because the cultivation given these crops destroys weed ami grass seed which are the worst enemies to successful alfalfa growing." Plow the Selected field deeply in Movembcr or December, harrow it smoothly the next. February, or as soon as soil conditions will permit, again plow the soil eight to ten inches deep and cultivate it after every rain, so that the moisture supply will be conserved. Piant the aflafla in August or September using from 20 to 25 pounds of adapted seed. The soil must be limed during the course of preparation using from three to five tons to the acre preferably applied in two applications during the winter and summer following the breaking of the land and hefore the subsequent harrowing. Apply about 400 pounds of a 2-12-4 fertilizer a few days previous to seeding. This fertilizer may be put in with a wheat drill. Mr. Pou says the alfalfa seed should be inoculated either with soil from some field where the crop hss been grown or with commercial inoculation.

Cl T FIXATORS MAY HE KKl'r FRESH AND rKKD'Y Cut flowers can be kept Cor a con- ' sklcraNe time when given the proper I care, says Glenn O. Randall. associ-! [ate professor of horticulture at State | College. j Cut the flowers with a sharp knife early in the morning or late in the afternoon, he advises. Then immerse *V> v etnmc full 1^., ?* V* . 1 * uiv ovvuw juu icii^iu in tuui water ar.l place them in a cool place for an hour or more. Keep flowers only in clean containers. Change the water at least once a day. more often in extremely hot weather. When changing the water, cut off at out an inch of the stems so as to provide a fresh surface through which the water may pass. Hold the 1 stems under water while cutting off the end. as tills keeps air from get- ' tir." into the conducting tissue and blocking the flow of the water. Remove the soft lower leaves from | t'nc stems, as they hare a tendency! to decay quickly. Keep the flowers in * a cool place at night to preserve tnem longer. Don't put aspirin, salt, quinine, potassium permanganate, or other chemicals in the water, for they do not help the flowers, contrary to popular belief. Randall points out. ! ,4 However, an experiment at Cornell: ' (university has shown that keeping j ' flowers in a copper vessel helps pro- , ong their life A small quantity of: copper dissolves in the water and hin- i dors the growth of the bacteria which j cause decay. 1 Do not handle the flowers roughly, as anything that tends to break or bruise the plants causes them to wither sooner. Randall adds. "HEAVEN HOUND" 'Heaven Bound," with an all-col- 3 ored cast of characters under the di- | rection of Rev. Ror.da Horton, willj he presented at the courthouse in | Boone, on July 27th. afternoon and i evening, 4 and S o'clock.
