The automobile traffic took a toll of nine lives in North Caro linaSunday according to reports. Monday's papers usually carry a big list of wrecks and fatalities, nevertheless it seems that near ly everybody who owns a car or that can get a seat in one goes riding on Sundays. It is the only day a big percentage of those who go have to get out and from these it is surmis ed the larger toll of accidents is exacted, because they do not drive enough to become skillful. The strike situation in Gaston county is improving very little. It was a sorry job that a mask ed gang did in blowing up the strike-leaders' headquarters?a l>oor way to get at a settlement. Gov. Gardner is doing the proper thing in ordering a com plete investigation. Mr. Hoover has had a clash or two with Congress over the Farm Relief bill, but he will win for he has the last say?the veto. Corn Crop Suffers From Bandit Weeds. i ~ Where corn and weeds occupy the same land at the same time, one will suffer. No one can pro duce 50 bushels of corn per acre if weeds and grass are permitted In the field. "Cultivation Is Important with corn," says Mr. Darren, cereal agronomist at State College. "The man who has the ambition to grow 50 bushels of corn on every acre planted must select his land, pre pare It thoroughly, fertilize It properly, and plant the highest yielding variety adapted to his lo cality. But his task is not ended there. Cultivation next demands his attention and cultivation is based on two main principles. First, maintain a dust mulch to conserve moisture, and second, destroy the robber weeds occupying the land." It is fortunate for the corn grow er that the same cultivation which maintains the dust mulch will al so kill the weeds, says Mr. Darren. But the best time to kill them is when they first peep through the soil. One stroke of a hoe or one cultivation with the drag harrow or weeder at that time Is more ef fective than a dozen such efforts when the weeds are allowed to get six Inches high. In fact, the weed er, harrow or rotary hoe should be run over the ground before the corn comes up. This is effective in killing weeds and maintaining the mulch. Killing weeds should not stop while the corn is still growing. Killing the corn roots by deep plowing with a turn plow should stop by all means, but not shallow cultivation. Mr. Darren says that the slogan of every grower In North Carolina this year should be, "De stroy weeds and keep them killed." Only in this way can the average of production be raised and the State produce the corn that it should have In abundance for home grown grain feed for work slock, poultry, sheep, dairy cattle, hogs and for family use. Weeds are robbers. They use moisture and plant food which the corn should get, concludes Mr. Dar ren. Eighteen farmers of Naah County have signed orders for 30 pure bred and grade Jersey heifers for family cows. Master Farmer S. L. Carpenter of Q as ton county, has the prettiest field of red clover in piedmont North Carolina, say those who have visited It. Even a hog will respond to good treatment say growers of Chowan county. They found that hogs properly cared for will pay while those neglected will be costly. Observance o f National Egg Week, May 1 to 7, throughout the United States in recognition of the poultry Industry win be promoted by the National Poultry Council, t Tobacco on Ridge Makes Best Leaf. Growing tobacco on a ridge suf ficiently high to Insure good drain age has raent $60 an acre In extra; profits to the grower adopting thej method. "We advocate the ridge method of cultivating tobacco," says E. Y. Floyd, tobacco specialist at State College. "Our demonstrations In past years show this method to be superior to level or flat cultivation, as Is practiced with corn. The ridge method has returned about $60 an acre profit In a number of tests conducted with us by leading to bacco growers of eastern and pied mont Carolina. We have a little circular published here at the col lege which describes just what we mean by ridge cultivation. Eachj step Is explained by drawing and photographs and the method is | easly followed." Ten farmers of Onslow county tride out the ridge method compar-: ed with flat cultivation on 40 acres of land last year. The average In crease In yield given by the ridge method was 170 pounds of leaf per acre. This tobacco sold for 40 cents a pound and gave a net in crease of $68 per acre over the flat, method. Demonstrations in Lenoir County also show the valufc of this method. In this county, the growers are us-! lng good seed of the Cash variety | or some other quality variety and about 90 per cent of the soils have had an application of magnesium < limestone In the last three years. I A large number of growers are also mixing their fertilizers according to extension recommendations. In Wayne County also, the ridge method Is popular and profitable. Mr. Floyd conducted over 500 demonstrations of one kind or an other In the tobacco counties of North Carolina last year. He also held 127 tobacco schools where 5, 168 farmers were present.
