FARMERS QUESTION'S
Involving Farm Problems Ef
fecting Franklin County.
Answered by Cole Savage,
County Agent
I should like to have my tobacco
seed recleaned but I have choice seed
and do not want to loose them. What
assurance have I that I will get my
own seed back?" C. G.?Louisburg,
Route 3.
Your tobacco seed are labeled care
fully with your own name and address
and that of your county agent before
going to Raleigh for recleaning. In
Raleigh they are not opened until they
are to be recleaned. Upon. reclean
ing they are packed immediately and
your name replaced on them. Thus
'they are kept separate from all other
seed and your own choice seed are
returned direct to you. The objects
of the extension service is to serve
you, hence this, care to return your
own seed to you.
"My pupils want some agricultural
information for writing themes on
rural subjects. Where can I get it?'
Teacher.
The agricultural library of the coun
ty agent is at your service. This in
cludes books, bulletins, pamphlets,
booklets, maps and charts on various
subjects such as hogs, horses, sheep
cattle, corn, cotton, tobacco, peanuts
hay, pruning, spraying and man)
other agricultural subjects. This ser.
vice is yours for the asking. See youi
county agent.
"I want to get some of the latest
bulletins on farming. Where can 1
get them?"
You do not state what bulletins
you want but if you will call at the
county agents office he will be glad
to help you. ^ He has several bulletins
on-hand for distribution hgd it may be
that you can get what you want in
his office. He has also a list of the
U. S. Department of Agriculture bul
letins and lists of bulletins from sev
eral State Experiment Stations, and
if he does not have the particular
bulletin you want he can get it for
you. Call on him.
- "If I should call for the county agent
and find him not in what shall I do?"
Leave your message on the pad pro
vided for the purpose. It is hanging
on the office door of the County Wel
fare Officer with the title "Leave
Word Here." A pencil is attached
ready for use.
Carrying water on both shoulders
makes both of them tired.
