Specialists of N. C. State Col
lege make the following recom
mendations for carrying out mod
el farming during the month of
July:
Paul Kime, Experiment Station
agronomist, says frequent' cultiva
tion of cotton is beneficial since it
maintains a mulch which helps
to hold moisture. Cultivation
should be shallow at all times in
order to prevent injury to the
root system. This suggestion al
so applies to corn and most of the
other cultivated crops.
Mr. Kime said further that if
the rush of other work has delay
ed the planting of sufficient bay
crops, there is still time to get a
fair to good crop of hay from
Sudau grass, millet, and cowpeas
if Mie sowing is completed by
July 15.
Hot weather proves a trying
time for cows, says Extension
Service Dairyman John Arey. Not
only is there a variation in the
quantity and quality of feed furn
ished by pasture, but flies and
the heat add to the cow's discom
fort. Nfet result is extreme dif
ficulty in maintaining a uniform
milk flow at this time.
In furnishing relief. Mr. Arey
urges that places where cows are
kept during the hotter part of
the day be provided with plenty
of shade and an ample supply of
fresh water. Then, too, combat
the fly menace, especially by de
stroying sources of breeding
places. Traps and traps will also
help.
Enos Blair, Extension Service
agronomist, says see that small
grain is thoroughly dry before it
4s threshed. If there is the sligh
test hint of dampness, spread it
out and stir twice a day until it
, lias dried out completely. After
the grain has beeu sbored. keep
a sharp watch for weevils, web
worms, and grain moths. Should
any of these pests show up. treat
the grain immediately with car
bon disulphide.
Mr. Blair also said: "If you
are so fortunate as to have a
good second crop of red clover
and want to cut it* for hay, go
fishing and stay until the desire
to cut that crop leaves you. Help
your land by plowing this crop
under."
T. T. Brown. Extension Service
poultryman, urges farmers to cull
out hens as fast as tihey stop lay
ing. A bird that has quit laying
may be detected by observing her
head closely. When production
cea?es. the comb ond wattles
* shrink and become pale, appeai
i ing dry and scaly. Put these hens
| on the market immediately. Au
oMier hot weather suggestion is
gathering eggs two or three times
:a day and storing them in a cool,
moist, well-ventilated basement
S or cellar.
During July, says Dr. Luther
Shaw, State College plant patho
logist. apple growers should keep
up t-helr spray program, since
blotch and bitter rot usually make
their appearance at this time of
I the year. A spray calendar for
apples. Extension Circular No.
: 192, may be obtained without
charge from the Agricultural Edi
i tor at? State College.
Earl Hostetler, professor of ani
mal husbandry, says where facili
i ties for winter lambs are avail
able, the breeding season should
begin July 1. Early breeding will
be encouraged if the ewes are
gaining in weight when turned
| over to the ram.

Questions
Answered at State College
yi'KSl'lOX ; Dors pruning hare
any i-lfcct on the size of dahlia
blooms? '
ANSWER: Yes. The number'
and size of blooms will depend,
upon tbe number of lateral bran-1
ches you allow to grow. If a very
large bloom is desired, the center
stalk should be left and all later
als pinched out except the bottom
two or three sets or the center
stalk may be pinched out leaving
about three sets of laterals at the
bottom of the plant. These will be
forced out quickly and will give
a number of large blooms. As
these laterals develop remove all '
secondary laterals except the low- j
er pair and continue this practice
until frost.
QITESTION: When to the best
time to plant vegetables for my
fall garden?
ANSWER: This depends upon
the hardiness of the different veg- 1
etables and the time required for
maturity. Tender vegetables must
be planted in time to produce a
crop before killing frosts qpcur
and should be given a little more i
time to mature during the fall j
months than Is required du/ing
warm weather. The latest safe
dates for planting the different !
vegetable crops In the various |
sections of the state are given in
Extension Circular 122 and cop
ies of this may be obtained free
upon request to the Agricultural
Editor at State College.
QCKSTION : When should I se
lect my tobacco seed plants?
ANSWER: Seed plants should
be selected Just before the tobacco
is topped and all selected
should be typical of the variety
planted. Tha leaves must be well I
spaced on tbe stalk and the plant
stand out above the average. The \
plants should be bagged In a 14 '
pound paper bag Just before the
first bloom to prevent cross pol
lination. Bud worm bait should
be applied to seed pods before the
bags aje put on. When the to
bacco is matured, the best seed
plants should again be selected.
QUESTION: What ix-rc-entage
of soybeans run I add to the ra
tion for ray hogs without Injur
ious effects?
ANSWER: Recent experiments
at this station have shown that
as much as fifty per cent of the
ration may be soybeans for pigs
from 61 to 100 pounds in weight.
When the pigs reached 100
pounds the ration was changed to
corn-tankage containing 13. per
cent cottonseed meat and this
was continued until the animals
were slaughtered at 230 pounds.
Out of 163 hogs used, 148 or 96.7
per cent of the chilled carcasses
graded Arm.

tatoes from the early crop l>e us
ed to plant the lute crop?
ANSWER: Seed from Hie
spring crop of such varieties as
Cobblers. Early Rose, and Bliss
Triumph may be planted for the
late crop if the seed are spryut
ing, hut a better plan Is io secure
seed potatoes from last year's
crop which have been kept in
storage. It sometimes lakes three
or four weeks before sprouting
begins even if the seed are cover
ed with hay or straw and kept
moist until sprouting occurs. In
any case, plant only those seed
which have sprouted.
QI'KHTIOX: What is the best
time to cut corn for silage?
ANSWER: The proper time to
cut corn for silage is when Ohe
grain is denting and the shuck
slightly yellow. This stage of
maturity is reached about a week
to ten days before the corn is
ready to cut and shock. If cut
earlier the nutriMve value of the
silage will be lowered and the
acid content often increased to
an objectionable level. If the har
vesting delayed beyond the prop
er stage of maturity the crop will
not contain enough moisture to
pack and keep well in the silo. If
sorghum is used for silage this
crop should not be cut until the
seed in the head are Arm.
