> Questions
Answered at State College
QUESTION: What* are the ad
vantages of a trench silo?
ANSWER: The trench Bilo is
ideal for small farms where large,
upright silos would be impractical.
Because they are inexpensive and
convenient, many farmers owning
lar^e dairy herds are also turning
to this type of silo. The construc
tion of a trench silo is fairly
Bimple, and $10 to $20 will build
one large enough to care for a
good-sized herd. A bulletin on
trench silos may be obtained free
by writing to the Agricultural Ed
itor at State College, Raleigh.
QUESTION: When should win
ter cover crops be sown?
ANSWER: August is the month
to sow winter cover crops. Crim- 1
son clover seed may be sown in
t'he hull in Eastern and Central
North Carolina corn, cotton, to
bacco, and other row crops within
the next few days. Unhulled seed
sown now will hot . germinate for
the next few weeks. Vetch, Aus
trian winter peas, and cleaned
crimson clover seed may be sown 1
in the Piedmont and Coastal plain
counties between August 20 and
October 10 at any time soil condi
tions are favorable.

QUESTION: How can one make
good apble fcidSr? ; ' |'
ANSWER: To make appetizing,
zestful cider, % combination of ap
ple varieties in the following per
centage should be used: 60 per
cent sweet apples and a sub-acid 1
variety' like Rome Beauty; 16 per
cent acid varieties like Red Wine-1
sap; Stay ma*. iTtu'k Imperial; "T0i
p^r cent of Delicious, Golden De
licious, or Bonum, which impart
aroinatic flavor; 5 per cent crab
apples or seedling varieties to give
tanfc; and 10 per cent Ben Davis,
Black Ben, Wott RlVer, and Lim
bertwig. Although cull apples may
be tused for . making cider, they
should be free from worms and
rot and ripened on the trees.
INDEPENDENT WORKER OR
PUBLIC SERVANT
When a campaign is on to pro
mote government or municipal
ownership of some activity that is
logically a private enterprise 'in
this, country, the argument is used
that it will- be of great benefit to;
the public and that the people will
acquire certain privileges not en- j
joyed under private enterprise.
Probably no statement could be
more misleading, because when
government goes into any line of
business, with all its tax-exemp
o tion;and tax-subsidization privi
leges, the private citizen, goes out
of business.
T?e workers of the country are
generally supposed to be on the
side of government ownership of
business. A free workman could
hardly take a more inconsistent
attitude.
This was strikingly illustrated i
in the recent strike of WPA work
ers, 'when t"he President of the
United States said at a press con- ?
ference, "You cannot strike;,
againBt the government." Strik
ing against the government Is on a
par with starting a revolution.
The more govei*nment owner- 1
ship of business that a country '
lias, the smaller is the field for i
independent employment. And by
the same token, the smaller grows
the opportunity for a worker to
give free expression to his -idieas
about his Job.
You become a public servant
when you work for the govern
ment, not an unrestricted private :
citizen doing as you please. It \
will be well for workmen to think
this situation over before they fall
too far for the socialistic, govern
ment ownership program now be- !
ing promoted in this country, for
you don't strike against the gov
ernment unless you favor a revo
lution?and for the time being at(
least that is rfot popular' in this
country.
