N. C. TOWNS MAY SEND SPONSORS TO WORLD'S FAIR Charlotte. N. C. ? New Yorkers and visitors to the World's Fair wlU always remember Nortih Car olina as the state of beautiful girls, if the World's Fair Commis sion has its way. Every commu nity and county in the state is be ing asked to send its own sponsor to the Fair on North Carolina Day (June 19th). Coleman W. Roberts, exhibit chairman, an nounced. Town and counties are also asked to send boys as color bearers in the parade which will be a part of the state's big day in New York. The sponsors, to be selected in any appropriate way by their own communities, would be represen tatives not only of their towns, but also will typify North Caro lina's charm and graciousness. Sponsors will hold their "office" throughout the term of the fair, or for six months, and would be officially recognized at any time they choose to visit the exhibit, bub it is hoped to have all of them, in New York on the day set aside as this state's own, when Gover nor Hoey will speak. Schools and other organizations are being invited by ohe World's Fair commission to send bands to New York for this day, and two of them ? Lenoir and Charlotte High Schools ? have made plans to go. Final plans fbr North Carolina Day have not been announced, but Roberts promised today that "North Carolina will monopolize New York and the Fair on June 19."

This Month On the Farm JANUARY Bolivar Pi$g, he sez, sez he: "Happy New Year for you and me And all our friend* and friends of friends And ail the great big famiiee." ?Sex Bolivar P., sez he. The following gaud farming j practices are suggested by State College specialists for the month of January: AGROXOMV |i K. C. Blair, extension agrono misf at State College, says to be sure to ' fiuish turning under all corn, cotton, and tobacco stalks as well as soybean, cowpea, and vel vet bean vines if you live in the Coastal Plain area. The plant food in this material canuot be utilized in 1939 unless ifo is disced into the soil in time for it to decay be fore spring. If you live in the Piedmont, ruu the plows every day thati the weather and the condi tion of the soil will permit. SWINE f During the cold weather of win ter. adequate shelter should be provided for every animal oil the farm, including the fattening hogs. If these hogs are exposed to cold, t>hey wiH"use up considerable feed in keeping warm. 'January also is a good month to build self-feeders and farrowing houses to be used by-spring litters,. H. V. Taylor, State College swine spec ialist. says. Blue prints for build ing these may be secured from the county agent. * POl/LTKY Watch out for winter colds, j says Rov S. Dearsoyne. head of the SUtte College Poultry Department. Colds are contagious .and, spread I rapidly. Some dt the most common causes are; faulty diet, direct drafts, v.jnd 'faulty ventilation. When ccrfds occur, check all fac tors of management, and remove all ailing birdc from ? ih?- ji. ; Then clean and disinfect the house j and keep a germicide in the! drinking water as long "colds are present.* Epsom salts' in the I drinking water once' a day is re commended. FORESTRY Plant trees on those idle acres, i advises R W. Graeber, extension forester at State College. One thousand trees will plant an acre it they are spaced 6 by 7 feet. See your county agent for definite in formation on planting. TOBACCO Locate tobacco seed beds on new sites where there is good drainage, good ventilation, and plenty of sunshine, says R. F. Poole, plant* pathologist of the Experiment Station at State Col- ' lege. By following this sugges tion. growers are less likely to have blue mold and other trou bles strike their plant beds. CATTLE Save out some good quality le gume hay for the weaned beef calves and nursing cows, says Dr. j J. E. Foster, associate in ainmal husbandry investigations at the Experiment Station The lower quality roughage can be fed to the oMer cattle and dry cows. FARM RECORDS R E. L'.
