MWS from th* AfrkvJti/nl hfmma St met STATE COLLEGE ANSWERS TIMELY FARM QUESTIONS QUESTION : Can I cultivate my corn at the silking stage? ANSWER: It is difficult to cul tivate corn after it is silking be cause corn roots are very shal low and All up the entire space between the rows. If you are troubled with a few large weeds and cockleburs in the corn, it might pay you to pull these out. as this would disturb the corn less than the plowing would. In extreme cases, where grass is about to overcome the corn, it Is sometimes necessary to plow It with a turning plow. This cuts lots of roots and should have been done earlier. II ? ii QUESTION: Will the AAA fur nish Austrian winter pea seed . ANSWER: Farmers can ob tain crimson clover and Austrian winter peas through their AAA committee in lieu of cash pay ments. In the case of crimson clover, growers may obtain any part of their 1943 allowance which they have not already us ed. and in addition, may obtain an amount equal to their 1943 allowance which will be charged against their 1944 allowance. Ac cording to Patten. "Legumes are a valuable asset in meeting the food and fiber needs since sup plies of chemical, nitrogen for agricultural uses are limited." He points out that, in order to maintain the fertility of the land for maximum wartime food pro duction. it is necessary to keep every tilled acre covered in the winter. ?n ? If QUESTION : Can I get more nitrogen for my crops next year? ANSWER: The War Food Ad ministration has just announced that the supply outlook for chem ical fertilizers during the year ahead is ccAsiderably improved. It is expected that in the total tonnage, from 5 to 10 per cent more chemical fertilizer will be available. Although nitrogen is expected to be available in some what lesser quantities. One change will permit the use ot fertilizer by farmers who have not previously used fertilizers on B crops. The order continues the provision by which farmers are required to make application to their local dealers for crop re quirements. They may make ap plication for fall fertilizers and also for spring fertilizers at the same time. The fertilizer peo ple are required to make deliver ies of fertilizers for A crops be fore such deliveries are made for B crops. u KORMKR COMMISSIONER OF AGRICUIVTURE DIES William A.

KRKP 'KM SMOKING Erie, Pa, July 12. ? A year ago two employees of the General Electric plant here conceived the idea of asking war workers in the shops to drop a penny a week into containers distributed about the buildings to provide a fund with which to send cigarettes to the boys in service. That the idea was a success is best sub stantiated by a report this week that more than one million pen nies, over $1 0,000, have been donated to the "keep 'em smok ing" fund. 1 These two workers are Ray Grappy and Carl Rumberger. Both have been with General j Electric about two years. The , first week the collections totalled $70. The second week they reached $100 and gradually clim bed until a record was estab ' lished in February of this year when collections amounted to $307.07. Cigarettes are sent to all Erie boys in service. Due to the shortage of feeds, growers should fully utilize tem porary pastures of soybeans, les pedeza, millet and similar crops in- growing out their late spring pigs.
