Rosen Rye Unsuited „ to North Carolina- Farmers who plan to grow a crop of rye either alone or in mixtures this winter bhould re member that Rosen Rye is not suited to North Carolina condi tions. "This variety of rye seems to be an excellent crop for some of the northern states but it is not suited to North Carolina," says E. C Blair, extension agrono mist at State College. "Several years ago this variety was sriven a fair trial on the Experiment Station farm at Statesville. Its yield was five bushels per ncre. The Abruzzi rye planted right be side it on the same day mado 19 bushels." Mr. Blair has stated again and agian in his campaign for more clover crops in the State that the Abruzzi variety was best suited to this State and the facts devel oped by the Experiment Statiou workers seem to bear out his as sertions. He feels that North Carolina merchants make a mis take in offering Rosen Rye for seed purposes becanse this is re sponsible for much of the variety being planted in the State each year. The results are always dis appointing. On the other hand, the Abruzzi rye is early and makes an abundant growth for either grazing or turning under in the spring before the Rosen rye ever starts to growing. "This year", says Mr. Blair, "a field of Rosen rye in Bladen County ripened about July 15 which was more than a month after the Abruzzi rye had been harvested. The worst features of this Rosen rye are that it is very late, it never makes satisfactory growth, it is used as an adulter ant in Abrnzzi rye and many growers are attracted to it be cause the seed are cheap." Abruzzi rye may be higher in price but it is cheaper in the end and for best and most economical results in growing a rye crop this winter, Abruzzi rye, only should be grown. Musical Hog Calling Not a Lost Art. Musical and effective hog cal ling is not a lost art among the farm folks of North Carolina if the performance of the 52 con testants in this feature event at the State Farmers' Convention last week is a real indication. Great volnmes of sound, punc tuation by appealing lower tones and convincing facial expression were used by each of the contest ants. So realistic did the callers make their efforts that the 1,500 observers gathered in front of Pullen Hall began to look around apprehensively fearing that per haps a great herd of swine would come rushing over the cainpns and sweep them from their feet. It was impossible for the judges . (o select the three prize winners at the first trial held at midday on Wednesday, July 28, so a sec ond contest was held for the ten •selected in the first occasion. At the second contest, a great er crowd had gathered. The news had gone abroad over Ra leigh that there were some real hog callers at the College and the visiting farmers were joined by a yreat number of town people. The final selection was announc ed at the evening meeting and J. C. Nichols of Durham was award ed first prize of $25 aa the. cham . pion caller of the Convention. Second prize of sls waa won by J. H Sprinkle of Route 7, Win ston-Salem and third prize of $lO was awarded to H. Q. Bundy of Elizabeth City. The officials of the convention stated that this contest brought a new note of informality and fnn into the convention proceedings And the farmers themselves voted that it mast become an annual -event. The ladies, not to be neg lected in such fun, made a re quest that, next year, prizes be offered for successful chicken •clatters. The fund of SSO nsed as prizes for the conteet was donat ed by the American Limestone Company of Knoxville, Tennessee It is easy to grow an education for the ■child by -evring for the tfarm woodlot now. August Ends Planting For Fall Garden The latest planting dates for many vegetables for the fall gaj den close by the middle of Au gurt. Frost is too near to plant later than this and the vegetables will not mature so as to be of value to tJte grower. "The plants of cabbage, toma toes and celery must be set. dur ing the first half of August to in sure their maturity before killing frost occurs," says Prof. Robert Schmidt, vegetable investigator for the North Carolina (College "The first week in Aueust is not too late to plant late Irish pota toes in eastern North Carolina. The succession plantings of snap beans should be continued "II over the State and the first sow ings of such as spinach, turnips. mustard, Chinese cabbage and kal>» slum Id be made." Where tomato wilt, is present, in the garden soil. Prof. Schmidt recommends the planting of snr.li wilt resistant varieties as the Norton or Margtobe. It is UII necessary to stake tomatoes un less the season is unusually wet. Unstaked vines will produce a larger crop though they will bo a ( little later. Tomatoes, Irish potatoes, col ery and cucumbers should be sprayed frequently or dusted with Bordeaux mixture to check the serious diseases which affect these crops, states Prof. Schmidt. The late summer and fall is the most trying season of tho year for the garden and it should not be neglected. Frequent cultiva tion is necessary if the season is dry and if too much rain falls, the grrower will have hard work to keep crab grass and weeds from smothering the crop. Irri gation will pay in many gardens. Bright Colors Adopted For Southern Engines Displacing the sombre black which has been the universal garb for locomotives on American railways in recent years, the Southern Ralway System has adopted a color scheme of green, gold and burnished steel for 23 heavy Pacific type passenger en gine, now being received from the American Locomotive Company. These engines which will be used to pnll the Southern's crack trains have tenders, ebbs, smoke stacks and other projections above the boiler jackets, drivers and other wheels painted a rich dark green with gold-leaf strip- Trustee's Sale of Real Property.
