Timely Farm Questions Answered at State College QUESTION: Is it advisable to use. a self feeder for hogs all the time? ANSWER: The self feeder is the most economical method for allowing the animals to balance their ration and should be used as much as possible. The only excep tion is when the brood sows ar? dry. At thai' time the sows should be fed by hand. A good pasture should be provided and the ani mals fed a protein supplement with enough corn added to' keep the sows gaining in tllesh. A min eral mixture should also be sup plied at all times. Prom the time the pigs are two weeks old the sows should be put' on the self feeder again and allowed to se lect their own rations. QUESTION: When should cock erels be caponized In order to be ready for the high market? ANSWER: Since the greatest demand for these birds is in Jan uary, February, and March it is necessary that they be caponized early enough to grow out by that time. It usually requires from, eight to eleven months tor- finish capons properly and the caponlz ing should be done in June and July so as to finish out for the market demand. Birds weighing from one and one-half to two| pounds should bel used. Although larger birds may be used, the op- ! eral'ion is much more difficult and the beneficial effects on growth j and flesh quality are much morel than on the smaller and younger! birds. QUESTION: What precautions i should be taken in installing a home water system? ANSWER: The first item to consider is equipment and mater ial. Always get) the best possible. Galvanized pipe and fittings should always be used as rust in ordinary black iron pipe is objec tionable. The pump should be lo cated in a light, well ventilated pace where it is accessible for re pairs and adjustments. Suction pipes should have a uniform slope to avoid pockets and reduce the i number of fittings. These linfes should also be as short' as possi ble to reduce priming trouble. The Agricultural Engineer at State College will answer any further questions and will assist in the installation if requested. NON-POLITICAL FARM KELIKK * The farm problem is essentially a problem of increasing agricul ture's cash income. Government has been wrestling with that pro blem for many years. It has pass ed scores of farm relief bills. And every one of them has been more or less a failure. Today, among thinking farm er!;', tt)e value of agricultural leg islation is being heavily discount ed. Such legislation is necessarily transitory. It is the product, often, of political ideals dominated by special interests. And the result is that the farmer is looking less to Washington for aid ? and more to his own organizations. The growth of the cooperative marketing organizations furnishes evidence of this. They have grown remarkably in membership? and, even more important^Jhey have grown in influence." They ' are gradually increasing agriculture's income by using ?ound business principles as their tools ? some thing political farm relief has failed to do. "Why was Adam like a radio?" "Because they took part of him and made a loud-speaker." DESTROY THE WEEDS Weeds in pastures compete with desirable pasture grasses and le gumes just as weeds in cultivated land compete with row crops, ac cording to William E. Adams, As sistant Agronomist, of the Soil Conservation Service in the Tar River Soil Conservation District, near Pranklinton, N. C. Mowing pastures when they be gin to get weedy wjll help to con trol weeds by preventing the re seeding of annuals and by weak ening the perennial weeds through | exhaustion of the root reserves, Adams pointed out. In almost every old pasture j there are some areas that have not been grazed where the grass has become tough and unpalatable. Mowing will clip the tough grass and stimuli^e the development of new, tender growth which will re sulO in more uniform grazing. It will also tend to develop a thick turf, which resists erosion and aids in moisture conservation. Many new pastures seeded this spring contain only a few weeds, which can be destroyed by pulling or digging them up. The same method can be used on rough and inaccessible areas. While this is more laborious than mowing, it destroys weeds much more thor oughly. Elimination of weeds that coin- , pete with desirable pasture plants j for food and moisture is one phase of more efficient land use which ; many farmers overlook, but it is an operation that will pay good returns for the labor involved be- 1 cause of the improved grazing and the development of a more desir-j able sod from an erosion-control j standpoint, Adams said. An increasing number of Yancey j County farm families are install- 1 ing running water in their homes this year, says R. H. Crouse, as sistant farm agent.
