Salvaging Of Seed Urged On Pastures Of Crimson Clover Farmers who have crimson clover ! this year should certainly plan to ! harvest the seed crop, according to | E. Y. Floyd of State College, state AAA executive officer .who points | out that larger supplies of seed will be needed for winter cover crops, 8nd i ? good price is expected. The crimson clover seed purchase 1 program announced by the 'Jn ted States Department of Airlco'.uro ' last September provides Mm th Caro- i Una farmers participating in the AAA program with a market for seed at ! prices somewhat higher than pr: 1 Vaiicu iusi year ,hc said. In -tates east of tin- Mississippi River th basic price fur reclraned tested seed, delivered in baps to des ignated hsaffiw*. is ii s c?tV--s j?-v pound if termination Ls 90 per cent or more. Provision also is made for a scale of prices ranging down to 10 5 cents per pound fo rseed germinating 30 per cent. Mr. Floyd pointed out that prices this fall may range e\en higher tiia utile level set in iiie pui - chase program. In operation, he declared, the pro gram will be similar to that of last year when seed growers of Tennes see and Kentucky delivered more than fionono pounds of crimsltn clover seed to the Commodity Credit Corporation. The AAA official said saving crim son clover seed i3 especially mpor tant ths year if farmers are to have enough seed to take care of seeding requirements next fall. In previous years ,he pointed out. about one-half of the crimson clover seed used In this country was imported .but due t othe war no seed is.availabel from overseas this year. For this reason, he said .enough must be grown at home to supply an expanded need fo rplanting winter cover crops In this country. o Culling Of Poultry Is Necessary Now, Says State Expert This is the season of heavy egg production in farm poultry flocks. C. P. Parrish, Extension poultry spe cialist of N. C. State College, says now is the time to "Cull out, but don't sell out." A group of farm cooperatives and private firms, cooperating with the State College Extension Service and the N. C. Department of Agriculture, have organized an egg-buying pro gram, to offer an unlimited market ?t standard prices. Parrish says de tails of the program can be learned by farm people from their county farm and home agents. The buying program is designed to remove sur plus eggs from the market.

As general it-commendations to poultry producers for the month of March, Parrish said: "As we rear a the spring period of flusli egg pro rjiir-ii"'!. finn'i wH til? FIik-k. till) nisi . cull out the low producers and the hens that have quit laying. "This gradual culling of non-lay- ' ers will help to prevent a slump in the poultry meat market," the Ex- ! tension specialist explained, "The | slump in epg pi-ices is not expeciuu j to be as severe as in years past The ] duration of the slump is expected to ] be comparatively short due to tho Government, cooperative and privatt egg-buying programs." As further suggestions to poultry farmers, Parrish said that the use of electric lights in the hen house, to induce heavier production by arti ficially lengthening the "daylight" hours, should be discontinued grad ually as the days get longer. "Avoid giving the flock more than a 14-hour day If morning lights are used," he advised. Parrish also recommended that the use of wet mash be gradually re duced until the practice is discon tinued entirely as the days lengthen. "Wet mash will be needed again about the last of June to help hold the flock in production thhrough hot weather," he said. o Another Cash Crop Paying "Big" Seen In Sweet Potatoes i ?* Farmers who are looking for a new "cash" crop might try sweet pota toes .says H. R. Niswonger, Extension horticulturist of N. C. State College. He says that North Carolina yams are gaining in popularity on Eastern markets. The varieties of sweet potatoes in biggest demand are the Porto Ricos, either the N. C. Strain 1 or the Lou isiana strain. Other varieties, such as the Nancy Hall and the Jersey type, have limited demand on some markets. Niswonger says the best type of soil for growing sweet potatoes Is sandy or sandy loam. "Heavy soils and dark soils? especially rich gar den soils and places where manure has been used heavily ? produce poor quality of potatoes," the horticultur ist advised. "Also, soils where le gumes have been turned under have a tendency to produce over size, dis colored and cracked potatoes. Such land should be planted to corn or cotton for a year or two, and the nitrogen in the fertilizer reduced." It is very important to use seed that are free from disease. Niswonger declared. It is always best to use certified seed, or certified slips that have been produced preferably by a grower who has been practicing hill seed selection. Only medium-sized seed should be bedded. The Extension specialist says information about the source of certified seed or certified sprouts can be obtained from county farm agents, or by writing direct to the N. C. Crop Improvement Associa tion, N. C. State College. Raleigh. Other recommendations by the horticulturist Include: Treat the seed before beddtng. It requires five or nix bushels of seed to set one acre. Use plants from vine cuttings. 6 Industrial activity rose further in January and the first half of Feb. reflecting continued sharp advances In the output of military products. Red Clover Mixture With Lespedeza Is Urged In Pastures For an excellent forage and soil building crop. E. C. Blair. Extension agronomist of N. C Rtnre College, suggests a combination of led clover and lespedeza to Piedmont and Mountain farmers. He lists five ad vantages from such a combination. I '11 You get a crop of mixed red I clover an dlespe The stalks and leaves of the i red clover and lespedeza.. combined ' for seed in August and November, 1 can be turned under to build up the t soil. Blair said that red clover was a : favorite crop in the western half of ? the State prior to the 1920's. Prom j 1920 to 1930 farmers gradually switched to lespedeza, because red clover needed lime and lespedeza grew satisfactorily without lime. "Now that thousands of tons of AAA limestone has been applied oy I Piedmont and Mountain farmers during the past few years, most soils are in good condition to grow red i clover again.'1 the agronomist stated. "Red clover is generally conceded to ; be a better legume than lespedeza." Blair says that lespedeza has one I serious disadvantage : It makes only one crop per y ear. and usually this must be cut for hay. Red clover makes two crops annually. Also, some farmers who have been growing les pedeza for years, and cutting most of it for hay. are becoming aware of the soil-depleting effects of the crop. ' The combination of red clover and lespedeza has all the advantages of each crop, and eliminates most of the , disadvantages. o German Losses Conservative estimates place the number of German casualties in the Russian campaign to date at more than one million men. This is more than half the number of Germans killed in the whole four years of the last war. LEGAL NOTICE NOTICE OF SAU NORTH CAROLINA. CHEROKEE COUNTY.
