Timely Farm Questions Answered at State College yi'KSTUN: Is It necessary to select new places for tobacco ]ilant bed* each year? ANSWKR: This is not abso lutely necessary but experimental evidence shows that disease and insect infestation can be mater ially reduced by selecting a new nite each year or by the rotation of beds. If an old bed is used, it should be burned over or steriliz-j ed by steam. Where new beds are selected, these should be located j in a well-drained place with a southern or southeastern expos ure. There should be an ample water supply close at baud and! the bed should be located on a; loamy type of soil. QUESTION: How can I store j roots to keep tliem over the win ter? ANSWKR: Any cellar or stor age bind that does not allow freez < iug and that does not become warmer than 50 degrees K. is an ideal place for storing dahlias. However, the average furnace i heated bouse cellar is too hot and dry and the clumps will need pro-! tection. For a furnace heated house the clumps should be pack ed in a box of slightly moistened i ..granulated peat moss and placed in the coolest part of the cellar. Dry sand or sandy soil may also be used as packing material. Where a large number of clumps are to be stored they may be plac ed directly on the floor and pack ed with the moss. QUESTION : Wliat causes ray cows and calves to K""w "t the fence rails and posts? ANSWER: This is a sign of mineral deficiency in the ration and the ration should be imme diately checked for mineral con tent of calcium and phosphorus. A suffcient quantity of calcium is usually contained in legume hays such as cow pea. soybean, clover and alfalfa if these crops are grown on soil not deficient in lime. Where the grain ration contains 30 per cent of wheat bran, cottonseed meal and soy beau meal, there is usually a suf ficient amount of phosphorous. However, it will dp no harm to allow the cows and calves free ac cess to a mineral mixture com posed of one part of fait and four parts of steamed bone meal. I>. K. AYCOt'K Funeral riles for 1). E.
