TAYLOR HARDWARE ANT) FCROTTCRE ?HONK 1 * 483-1 IT imely F arm Questions Answered at State College QI'ESTIOX : How can I prevent [?lie spread of mosaic in my tobac co fields? AXSWKR: This disease is com monly spread when plains are pulled (or transplanting and care should be taken not to handle dis eased plants during this operation. If there are diseased plants ill the bed no plants within a one-foot radius should he touched until all (?he healthy plants at that pulling are removed from the bed. After this, all the plants from the dis eased area should be taken from thi> bed and destroyed. To pre vent further spread the hands should then be cleansed with 8 weak disinfectant solution and all clobhing 'changed. y U EST IO V hen should the roosters be taken from, the laying flock? AXSWKR: All male birds should be removed from the flock as soon as the hatching season is completed. Infertile e?gs will keep fresh longer and will also hold the flavor better. As a general rule, it is best to sell all the males ,used this season and plan to re place them for next year with ped igreed birds from a dependable breeder. This culliug should not be confined to male birds alone. ^All hens that have quit laying or show signs of an early molt should [ also be removed from the flock and sold or used 011 the home ta ble. QUESTION: . . What is the best spray for control of Irish potnto bugs and flea beetles? , AXSWKR: A 4-4-50 Bordeaux HlUture with two pounds of arse inate of lead or one pound of cal jcluni arsenate to the 50 gallons of soluton will give good results. The same mixture without the poison will also control diseases of ?the foliage. About one-half pound of soap should be added to the , spray to give sticking and spread ling qualities. Bordeaux dusts may also be used, but as a rule, they are not as effective as the sprays. PREPARES FOR PIGS J. A.

Front row left to J right: CLYDE Kr-LANEY, Chcraw; R. O. RICKENBACKER, Orangeburg; H. H. HERLONG, Johnston. M. H. O'Neal, Estill, Hampton County, was the winner of the South iCarolina Five-Acre Contest for 1938 | with 12.2 bales on five acres. The ? taple length of his cotton was l 1 32 inches. Six of the prize win ; iers produced cotton of the same ?taple length and the lowest yield I vas 9.7 bales on five acres. i The purpose of the contest, con ?ucted by the Extension Di-vision of | he Clemsisn Agricultural College, is I .i produce hi;h quality cotton at a rice i hat will rerm't it reasonable J .i'.ndard of living t > tl;e producing, '.nnufacturing :md c. nsuming in I 'Vests. In 1928 only 36.7% of the r cotton in South Carolina was long cotton but in 1938 long cotton was 96% of the entire crop. For*' the South as a whole the percentage of long cotton is about 61%. More than 1,000 farmers entered the contest and 725 came through with completed records. The win ners not only made high yields on their pet five-acre plots but also on their entire farms. For instance, Mr. Herlong, who came fifth in the con test, was allowed to plant 24.3 acres of cotton on his farm and he pro duced 42 bales averaging 500 pounds each. Jf Mr. Herlong rotates his crops, uses the best of seed, treats his seed before planting:, fertilizes liberally I with a well balanced fertilizer, and practices boll weevil control with the 1-1-1 poison-molasses mixture. He used 460 pounds of a 3-11-11 (NPK) fertilizer per acre at planting and then top-dressed with a complete fertilizer carrying 10# potash. Say Mr. Herlong: "My cotton nevei rusts since I betran using hiprh amounts of potash and my yields and the quality of the crop have shown a decided improvement." The first four farmers in the con test used an avevaire of 72 pounds of pure potash per acre or as much : potash a -i is contained in 900 pounds ' of fertilizer carrying 8','t potash.
