Fertilizing Value Os Cottonseed Meal A ton of cotton seed has approxi mately the some fertilizer ingredi ents as 1,053 pounds of cottonseed «meal, says C. B. Williams, head of the agronomy department at State College. But when meal is used as a source of nitrogen in applying a complete fertilizer to a crop, the yield is usu ally 10 per cent higher, he says, than when the nitrogen is obtained from cotton seed. Therefore, Williams says, growers ' will usually find it profitable to fer tilize with meal rather than with seed, frough seed can be used when appliePproperly. On an average, the meal will con tain 5.8 per cent nitrogen, 2.8 per cent phosphoric acid, and 1.8 per cent potash, while the seed will contain 3 per cent nitrogen, 1.4 per cent phos phoric acid, and 1.2 per cent potash. When exchanging seed for meal at a cottonseed oil mill, the farmers shoifld get enough meal to equal the fertilizer value of their seed, plus an extra amount to pay them for haul ing the seed to mill and the meal back home, Williams points out. Otherwise, they may make a better trade by selling their seed and buy ing meal. In case the grower wishes to use seed for fertilizer purposes, Williams suggests that they make a compost of the seed with manure, rich dirt, or wood’s mould in the fall rather than put the seed directly under the crop in the spring. Control Mice Damage With Poisoned Bait "Field mice are an orchard pest that mo3t fruit growers are unaware of until it is too late to 3ave their trees, says H. R. Niswonger, extension horticulturist at State College. Most of the mouse damage, he says, occurs during the winter months in orchards where a heavy sod cov ers the ground. The mice work just beneath the surface and are not noticed until the trees begin to die or fail to bud in the spring. At first the damage may be. slight, but eventually the mice eat away the bark from the trunk a few inches below the soil so as to com pletely girdle the tree. The common meadow mouse mi grates to the orchards when their food supply in the open fields be comes scarce. The short-tailed pine mouse is most destructive, doing worst damage to orchards growing near timbered areas. Niswonger urges orchardist3 to examine the areas around their trees, looking for mice runways and in juries to the trees. If evidence of mice is found, they can be destroyed by putting out wheat bait which has been poisoned with strychnine. De tailed information how to mix the bait and place it around the trees may be obtained free from the hor ticultural department of State Col lege in Raleigh. As a supplementary control mea sure, Niswonger suggests the digging up of grass and weeds under the tree 3. This breaks up the tunnels and runways and causes the mice to seek their food in areas farther from the trees. Edenton Wins First Elimination Game At Rocky Mount Friday (Continued from Page One) ground in exchange of punts. Both teams appeared over-anxious at the outset, several fumbles on both sides occurring in the early part of the game. As in previous games, the Edenton team played as a unit and many comments were heard in Rocky Mount concerning the coaching which the Edenton boys must have received. Paul and Worth Spencer continued their powerful driving ability, while Cates improved on his ability to pick up yardage and intercept passes. Bill Harrell handled every punt per fectly and featured at passing Friday afternoon with Paul Spencer on the receiving end. The only 'score of the game was the result of a well-timed pass from Bill to Paul, with a pre vious pass barely failing to material ize. Wozelka, although not in the best of condition, played a splendid game, while Rogerson continued to master the punting situation. The remaining linemen, Spruill, Sexton, Bufflap, Layton, Boyce and Byrum, did their! parts equally well in main taining the splendid record of the 1934 team. The game wasn’t a walk-away for .Edenton, the entire New Bern team putting up a wonderful fight. Weath erly, Morris, Shapou and Lockey especially stood out at a quartet of worthy opponents. First Quarter New Bern kicked to start the game and on the first play Worth Spencer fumbled. After Paul and Worth each tried line plunges, Rogerson booted the ball of dangerous ter- vain for a first down until Rogerson dropping back in punt formation, skirted left end for the first first down of the game just as the quar ter ended. Second Quarter In the second quarter the Aces made better headway at gaining ground. On the third play Paul Spencer made a first down but the ball was called back, both teams be ing off sides. On the next play Paul nearly went for another first down, but Edenton was again penalized for off sides. The ball went to New Bern as a pass failed. Weatherly made five yards on the ffFst play, but was forced to kick when Morris fail ed to gain and they were penalized 15 yards coupled with a fumble. Concerted drives by Paul and Worth Spencer and Cates resulted in four firet downs, taking the ball to New Bern’s 3-yard line, but the Bears’ line held and Edenton lost the ball. New Bern kicked on the first play. The next play was a beautiful pass from Bill Harrell to Paul Spencer which resulted in the only counter for the day when Paul shook off one Bear and outran two others. The extra point was made when Paul plowed through the line. Edenton kicked a3 the half ended. Third Quarter Edenton kicked to start the half, New Bern punting after seven yards were gained. Paul Spencer lost two yards, after which Cates gained eight yards, Rogerson kicking on the next play. New Bern was penalized for holding and kicked out of danger on the first play. During the remainde* of this quarter the ball see-sawed up and down the field as both teams tried in vain for yardage, except near the close when New Bern passed for a first down. New Bern’s rally was short-lived at thi3 period when Cates intercepted a pass as the quarter ended. Fourth Quarter Rogerson kicked when the Bears’ line tightened. New Bern then took to the air but kicked when a pass was blocked. Cates and Paul Spencer both made a first down after'which Rogerson kicked. New Bern returned the kick after passing attempts fail ed. Edenton kicked back but got pos session of the ball when New Bern . failed in a desperate effort at pass ing. Rogerson was forced to kick, at which time New Bern made another spurt to make a first down, but were again checked by Cates intercepting a pass. Cates lost five yards on the next play but Worth Spencer made a first down as the game ended. The lineups follow: New Bern Edenton Paul L. E. Rogerson Pritchett L. T. Sexton Daniels L. G.

Carolinas Lead In Strawberry Yield Louisiana, Florida, Tennessee, Ar kansas and Virginia all exceed the Carolinas in the acreage planted in strawberries, but the yield of berries grown per acre in the Carolinas places these states among the leaders in the production of this popular small fruit. For success, Carolina growers must continue to hold and improve their high production, for there is little if any room, due to market conditions, for any substantial acreage increase. The Louisiana strawberry industry has long been the envy of Carolina growers but, according to a recent study made by a representative of the Division of Farm Management and Costs and an agricultural eco nomist of the Division of Fruits and Vegetables, Bureau of Agricultural Economics, United States Department of Agriculture, the Louisiana growers have fared rather badly in money re turns during the past three years. COLORED CHOIR CONTEST RESULTED IN TIE VOTE The choir contest held Friday night in Hertford between the Hert ford Colored Baptist CV.rch choir and the Canaan’s Temple Methodist Church choir of this county resulted, in a tie.
