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
