World's, pest Liniment Timely Farm Questions Answered At State College Question ? How can I inoculate soil for seeding hairy vetch this fall? Answer ? In the mountain and Piedmont sections the best method is to moisten the seed with water and molasses and then mix them with from 200 to 300 pounds of soil from a field known to be in oculated. If this cannot be done a good commercial cultnre may be used. In the coastal planes, especially on the sandier soils, it is advisable to use 200 to 300 pounds of soil from a field that is already inoculated for vetch. If this is impossible, use either of the other methods with a good applicatiou of stable mannre. It sometimes takes two or three crops of vetch to establish the In inoculation thoroughly and it is therefore best to start on a small scale. Question: When should pal lets be moved to winter quar ters? Answer: This transfer should be made from two four weeks be fore the average pulleta start to lay, or certainly by the time they are in twenty-five percent pro duction. This often causes a conflict as, in many cases, the hens are laying too well to be disturbed and the pulletu arg ready to take their place. Where the pullets are well matured, of high quality and are in 25 per cent lay then they should be giv en the preference. If the pulleta are immature and of inferior quality it would be best to sell them and keep the hens as it is a mistake to replace superior hens with immature or inferior pallet*. Question: Wheu should skim milk be substituted for whole milk in feeding the young calf? Answer: The substitution should begin when the calf is 4 weeks old. One-half pint of skim milk should be substitufed for whole milk at each feeding and continued until all whole milk is replaced. At this time the calf should be getting about two quarts of Bkim-milk at such feed ing. This amount should be gra dually increased until the animal ANNOUNCING ARRIVAL Newest Fall Woolens FOR MEN ?OU'LL like the pat. term, quality and the pricct. 3T will be a real pleat* ure to show you this beautiful Fall Line.
