ANSWER: Moist ipash has an important place in thV feeding of most flocks at some time during :he year and with the laying birds it should be fed througTi the sum mer to keep up egg production !rom June until October. The Sest time to feed this inash is ibout two o'clock each afternoon, rhree pounds of the regular lay ng mash .moistened with hot wa :er or milk, preferably milk, for sach 100 birds per day will give ?xcellent results. QUESTION: How run I keep my cream fresh and pure between nurketing days? ANSWER: Immediately after milking remove the milk from the harn. strain and separate it. Cool he cream by placing the can in ;old water so that the entire con tents are below the surface of the water. Stir occasionally to hasten I cooling and keep it in cold water I until it is taken to market. Warm I cream should NOT be aded to | cold cream. Catch the cream as it ' comes from the separator and j place this can in the cooling tank alongside the accumulated cold cream until the next separation. It can then be poured into the cold cream and mixed until the entire hatch presents a uniform smooth body. QUESTION : How often ?lioul<l l>oisoiie<l bait be used to control bud worm damage in tobtu-co? ANSWER: Applications should j begin ten days to two weeks after ! the plants are set and should be repeated every week or ten days until the plants are topped. Make the applications early in the mor ning when the tobacco hud is open by placing a small pinch of 'he poison directly in the CEN TER of the bud. The bud worm prefers corn to tobacco so do not ubstltute any other ingredient in e bait for th? corn meal. One ;>eck of corn meal and six heap ing tahlespoonsful of arsenate of lead will make enough bait for one acre of tobacttf. TAKE THE TIME- and MONEY-SAVING WAY ?

Many a home is being built today ' that is only half insulated. Yet the man who is spending his money to build the house doesn't know a thing about it. These pe^o ple, when they build, won't hesitate to spend $150 to $200 to make their walls weather-tight. They will buy the best insulation, the best mois ture barrier, and t>" the best con struction method ? ut they over look completely tUu fact that the walls of their homej have from ten to thirty great big holes in them that are filled only with ^windows. These holes must be filled with good windows ? windows that do more than harmonize with the ar chitecture of the home. For a win dow is not only an architectural feature. It is also a mechanical feature. , Windows are just as permanent a part of the wall as insulation. Just as it is wise to spend those extra dollars for insulation ? so it is wise to spend a few extra dol lars to see that a window frame makes a permanent weather-tight joint with the wall, that window sash are precision fitted to the frame, that an efficient job of waatherstripping is done, that storm sash or double glazing is provided, and that the operating equipment use-l will give a lifetinn of trouble-frp" "Deration A large number of Watauga County demonstration farmers are making plans to save part of their clover crop for seed, reports H.
