Recent escapes from the State's Prison of prisoners who at one time or another had been under sentence of death, suggest a slight change from the custom of com muting the capital sentences of prisoners whose lives governors find it politic to spare. Instead of granting commuta tions from death, governors should suspend the death penalty on cou jdition of good behavior. Then when Mr. Murderer de Icides to take advantage of good nature by "going over the wall" he will do so in the knowledge that the death chair awaits him when he is captured. ?

CAROLINA Timely Farm Questions Answered at State College Question: When is the best time to cut lespefleza f or see'd? Answer: The Korean variety should be cut about the first of October and the other varieties Just after the first hard frost. Af ter being left in the barn for a few weeks the Korean seed is threshed on a grain separator Seed from the other varieties are harvested with a seed pan attach ed to the cutter bar of a mow ing machine. Plans for building a seed pan may be secured free by writing the Agricultural Edi tor, State College. Question: How big a trench silo should I dig to handle silage for 12 cows? Answer: This depends upon how long your animals are to be fed. The average cow will con sume about lone cubic foot, ef silage each day. A slice of silage from three to five Inches thick beginning at the top and going to the bottom should be fed dally to prevent spoilage. The suggest ed dimensions for a silo to tak? care of 12 cows is 7 feet wide at top, 5 feet wide at bottom, and 6 feet deep. For a 180 day feed ing period the silo should be 60 feet long. For a longer feeding period the length should be in creased rather than the width or depth. Question: Can I substitute skim milk or buttermilk for any of the ingredients in your recommended State Laying mash formula Answer: Skim milk or butter milk may be substituted for dried milk at the rate of one gallon of milk to each 100 birds. Where as much as three gallons of the skim milk or buttermilk Is fed to each 100 birds a days this will take the place of all the dried milk, ono half the fish meal, and one-half the meat meal as recommended. The success of these substitutions depend upon the regular feeding of the milk and unless there is an ample supply so as to make re-, gular feedings no substitutions should be made. CRAVEN TEST INDICATES NEW FERTILIZING METHOD Two demonstrations conducted in Craven County indcate that fertilizer applied to the winter cover crop preceding corn will give better results than fertilizer applied directly to the corn. In both demonstrations Austrian winter peas were sown last fall and turned under for corn in the sprmg, reported E. C. Blair, ex tension agronomist at State- Col lege. On certain plats in each demon stration approximately 4 04) pounds of fertilizer containing 10 per cent phosphoric afcid. four per cent potash, and 110 nitrogen were applied to the acre before the peas were sown. No fertilizer whatever was ap plied to the corn which -followed the cover crop winter peas. On five other plats, no fertili zer was applied to the peas, but 400 pounds of 0-10-4, 400 pounds' of 1-8-5, 200 pounds of 2-10-4. 200 pounds of 16 per cent super phosphate, and 200 pounds of col loidal phosphate respectively were applied to the corn per acre. Although definite results can not be announced until the corn is harvested^1 Blair' stated that al ready it iSi_,clearly evident that the best yields will come from the fields where all^ the fertilizer j was applied to the winter cover! crop. He also pointed out that ferti lizer applied to the cover crop does double duty, since it causes the cover crop to produce a bet ter yield as well as the corn or cotton which follows. He urged farmers to bear this in mind when sowing their winter i cover crops during the fall. i FEED DAIRY C OWS J j CULL SWEET POTATOES Unmarketable sweet potatoes may be fed to dairy cattle with excellent results, says R. H. Huff-'| ner, head of the animal husbandry ( department at State College. Both the tubers and the vfffest make a good, palatable feed which! will produce milk and butter of ; high quality. But livestock men can afford to feed only cull potatoes or those, which cannot be marketed for hu man consumption at a fairly good price, Ruffner pointed out. Sweet potatoes contain about one-fourth the total feed value of an equal weight of corn, conse quently, dairymen cannot afford to allow more than ^ne-fourth the price of corn for the sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes may be fed cows in place of corn silage. Sinr/? here are 25 pounds of digestible lutctoatf in loO pounds of pota toes, while" an equal weight ot silage contains only 17 pounds, the cows will not need as much potato feed as silage. When sweet potatoes are Ted, the cows should also get eight to ten pounds 4of legume hay to balance the "ration, as potatoes consist mostly of starch and sugar. Uuffner siated. From 25 to. 30 pounds of pota toes a day may be fed the aver age cow, but it is advisable to feed only five to ten pounds a day at the start. The quantity may be increased gradually as the cows lparn to eat the roots. The sweet potato vines may be grazed off by the cows, or they may be pulled-aud fed in the barn. Each cow can consume from CO to 40 pounds of vines a day. Do not allow them to eat more than this amount, Ruffner added.
