Questions
Answered at State College
QUESTION: What lawn mix
tures are adapted to different sec
tions of the State?
ANSWER: For the coastal
plain, a mixture of 2.6 pounds of
Italian rye grass, 0.3 of a pound
of whie clover, and Bermuda
grass root cuttings is recommen
ded. For the piedmont and moun
tain sections, a mixture at 1.3
poundB of Kentucky blue grass
0.7 pounds of red^op, and 1.3
pounds of Italian rye grass is re
commended. Each of these mix
tures will seed 1,000 square feet
of lawn.
QUESTION: When should beef
cattle be bred?
ANSWER: It* (s advisable to
allow the bull to run with the
cow herd In May, June, and July,
and the calves will all arrive in
February, March, and April the
following year. There are several
advantages for having the calves
come at this time of the year.
Dry cows can be much more eas
ily and cheaply wintered than
cows nursing calves. Winter and '
early spring calves usually grow']

And maybe it is.
Anyhow, we have this excuse to offer: that this
is not what we say about ourselves but what
readers have said in letters that they wrote us
without solicitation:
"It is the most readable paper in the two

"I like The News because its editorial policy
is crusading."'
"You are producing a newspaper of interest not
only to townspeople but out-of-towners as well."
"I've never been in Charlotte. But in The
Charlotte News I find something, a genuine per
son-to-pcnon friendliness, that seems to back up
your contention that Charlotte is a friendly city."

QUESTION : What In the na
ture of, and the control for, the
rust which often attacks leaves
and rruit of apple*,?
ANSWER: Hust is one of the
oddest diseases affecting the ap
ple. The parasite which causog
this disease spends part of its life
cycle on the apple and part on the
common red cedar tree. The pres
ence of both of these plants is es
sential to the existence of the rust
parasite. Elimination of the red
cedar trees for a distance of one
half mile or more from the or
chard is the only practical method
of controlling apple urst.
Now that people have the ra
dio, everybody has an opinion on
every subject under the sun, and
