Trench Silo Described In New Bulletin The trench silo has become one of the most popular and inexpen sive types of silos to store the feed needed each winter in North Caro lna. During the past year hundred of mineographed plans for building trench silos have been distributed to interested farmers but the de mand for these plans became so heavy that an extension bulletin, "Silage and the Trench Silo” has been written by John A. Arey, dairy extension specialist, and D. S, Weaver, ■agricultural engineer at State College, and issued as Exten sion Circular No. 201. Lady Says She Toole CARDUI for Cramps;' Was Soon Relieved Women who suffer as she did Will be Interested In the experience of Mrs. Maude Craft'Mi, of Belle ville, 111., who writes: "For several years, I suffered from Irregular trouble and cramping. There would be days when I would have to stay in bed. I would get so nervous, I was miserable. My aunt told me to try Cardui. She believed it would build me up, regulate me and help the nervous trouble. I knew after taking half a bottle of Cardui that I was better. I kept on taking Cardui and found it was doing me a world of good. I am in good health, which means a lot to me.” . . .. Thousands of women testify Cardui benefited them. If it does not benefit YOU, consult a physi cian. .. , Price $1. Corn and soghrum are the fore most crops advised for use as silage , and should be cut when they con tain maximum feed nutrients and at the same time sufficient moisture to cause the silage to pack well. The amount of silage needed on any farm is determined by the ( number of animals to be fed. The acreage required to produce a given amount of silage depends largely upon the fertility of the soil. In- , formation is contained in the bul letin on the amount of ensilage needed and the acreage to plant. The trench silo is inexpensive to I construct and has given thousands of cattle-keeping people of North ' Carolina excellent results during ‘ the past two wears. It is recom mended as a type that is well adapt ed to the medium or small-sized herd and among the advantages ! Icnuuivi au,u 111 liic uum-uu au, low cost of construction, low cost j of filling equipment, ease of con struction, and fire and wind proof. r The most important factors to be a considered in locating the trench s silo are: drainage, soil, and con- c venience. The location must permit 1 good surface drainage. Copies of the circular may be 1 obtained free of charge on appli- ' cation to the Agricultural Editor j at State College.

The state’s ratio of male prison rs per 100,000 population, 15 'ears old ahd over, was 210.3, ac ording to the 193 3 decennial cen us of penal institutions, results of vhich have just been announced lere. Mississippi had the lowest ratio n the nation, with but 173 males >er 100,000 population in county nd municipal jails and work louses, and New Hampshire was lext with 190.4. The nation’s capital, Washing on, stood highest. The ratio of commitments of nale criminals over the nation per 100,000 population 15 years old ind over was 306.7, almost 100 Joints above North Carolina’s atio. North Carolina’s ratio of women ncarcerated in such institutions, lowever, was not so low, compara bly. There were 48.8 per 100, )00 population. Many other states eported less women so committed Jer 100,000, with Rhode Island laving the lowest ratio—only 2.3 rhe national ratio in this class was 10.5.

Greeting President at Hyde Park Home I f * ■ ■■ -.. ■■■ ■ ■ ■■■ — I ! HYDE PARK, N. Y. . . . President Roosevelt has deserted the Potomac i for the Hudson River’s scenic beauty, to sojourn for 30 days at his home here. Photo shows the President being greeted by a group of children upon his arrival home. . . . Executive offices of the “Summer White House,’’ have been established at Poughkeepsie, N. Y., a short ride from Hyde Park. Vetch And Clover Build Crop Yields ' i Last year a piece of bottom land owned by J. B. Echerd of Alex ander County produced 110 bushels of corn by actual measure though the land has been in corn contin uously for the past 25 years. "The answer is that, every win ter, this soil has been covered with a good crop of vetch and crimson clover,” explain Enos C. Blair, ex tension agronomist at State College, who reported the facts. "The leg umes are planted each fall and plowed under the following spring in time for the corn crop to be planted. In spit© of the good yields which Mr. Echerd has harvested there is as yet no apparent dimuni tion in the fertility of the soil. Prospects are good for a heavy crop of corn to be harvested from the bottoms this season.’’ Another farmer in Alexander bounty, John Sipe, began growing /etch and crimson clover on a piece >f bottoms in 1920. At that time, he land was producing an average >f about 20 bushels of corn to the acre. Last year it produced 60 ] bushels and the crop in 1934 looks < better than it did in 193 3. I But vetch and clover are not the 5 only two legumes which build soils, ‘ Mr. Blair points out. On the farm belonged to the Barium Springs r Orphanage in Iredell County, al- <= falfa is the principle crop. This j institution has two larg* .fields \ seeded—on one field the crop is 1 four years old and on the other, * fight years old. Despite this, the j alfalfa was free of weeds and crab grass due to regular cultivation f with a spring tooth harrow. The E two fields have averaged three tons S af hay to the acre so far this season £ and the land is improving in fer- 3 tility. e Alfalfa hay is selling now for c $30 a ton in North Carolina at 1 farm prices and the average of three . tons to the acre being harvested means an income of $90 an acre. The maintenance cost after the first planting is practically nothing, Mr. Blair says. Dealers In Legal Liquor Find Trade Not Gold Mine Washington.—The rush to get rich quick in the legal liquor busi ness is dying down. More persons and corporations are dropping out of the field than are entering it, officials reported. Apparently a good many found the trade was—for them—no gold mine. Inactive holders of distilling, rectifying and importing permits are being weeded out by the federal alcohol control administration. The officials said few permits had been issued recently to distillers or rectifiers and that none would be unless a need for more capacity is demonstrated. The code for liquor importers does not give the administration similar power over import permits, but applications in that field have dwindled. The administration is encouraging a reduction in the number of importers, considering that field too crowded. Officials said the importers have millions of gallons of whiskey in bonded warehouses, hoping the tar iff of $J a gallon will be reduced and that they will be allowed re bates. Importers are the most numer ous among the liquor operators under the administration’s jurisdic tion. Although 72 import permits have been cancelled or revoked, 1, 724 remain. j Of the 5 5 5 rectifying permits j issued, 36 have been cancelled, 6 1 revoked, and 513 remain active. 7 j The active holders of distillery j permits have dwindled only slight- < ly from 451 to 445. ; The administration has revoked , the permits of a few applicants found to be convicted bootleggers. | Officials said they are on guard against gangsters and gunmen try ing to get into the legal business; but that they have no "holier than thou” attitude toward persons merely suspected of having been bootleggers. They said they have not been in clined to throw out the application of a suspected bootlegger who wants to submit to regulation, un less he has some other criminal re cord or reputation. It is claimed the modern boy has. 10 outlet for his energy, but any-: svay there is the grass on the .near- i ay lawns to be trodden down, and :he fruit in the neighboring back wards is supposed to need thinning nit. Some of the automobile drivers svho complain about detours are irobably sore because they can only run about 50 miles an hour over :hem. The “has beens’’ may be back lumbers, but sometimes their ex lerience is more valuable than that if the "would bes.” "Only trouble with school,” says me of the rising generation, "is that they want me to study arithmetic, grammar, penmanship and geog raphy.” The people of Africa are called uncivilized, but anyway you can :ross the road down there without danger of some motorist running Wou down.
