NEWS OF THE vva.EE ON
CHATHAM COUNTY FARMS
* I
Such widespread interest is being
shown by the- farniei l 3 of this county j
in lespedeza, that the Agent induced i
several farmers to save seed by har- j
vesting this past fall. Mr. Cicero !
Johnson of the Big Meadow com- j
munity constructed a seed pan for
saving lespedeza seed, and it is re
pone-:; that he harvested around
300 bu. Mrs. G. S. Norwood of the
Meronie Church section also saved
lespedeza seed last fall, as did Mr.
\\ , Z. Crews near Pittsboro.
Tne in tuit order of lespedeza for
102 was s.iit off this w.ek. A to
tal of 1050 lbs. of lerpe.tza s r ed
was ordered for eight farmers. In
cduded in this order were two orders
for Letpedeza No. 7G, an improved
hay strain of lespedeza. Mr. ,v. W.
Lutieiloh of the v-um Spring: com
munity ordered -10 lbs of this seed,
anc: uix. j_. aa. \\ Ouoy ot t..e ~~ .
p|f Hope community ordered 50 ibs.
Purebred seed, of a variety ree
emmenae-.- for this section always
pays bes‘. Last year, the Agent
ordered purebred Mexican cotton
seed tor Mr. M. H. Woody who report
that cn three acres, he made a yield
of one bale to the acre. He also re
ported that the staple le yyh on
this cotton an ; aged con 1 viably
longer than other varieties of cot
ton.

Farmers in 'he Mt. Gilead and
New Hope sections will be interested
in visiting Mr. Moses Clark’s fores
try project. Mr. Clark has been
thinning, and protecting his timber
for a number cf years, and in cut
ting out weak, and diseased
trees, he is greatly enhancing the
value of his farm timber.

Older farmers of this county must
look to their laurels. Gordon Marsh
all of Piittsboro R. F. D. No. 2, who
had an acre of corn as a Junior Club
Poject in cooperation with the Agent
during tire , past year, made a total
yield of 73 bu. of corn on this acre.
Gordon applied -100 lbs. of 3 0-1-4
fertilizer m one application. 3 loads
of Stable manure, and sidedressed
with 100 lbs. Nitrate of Soda. His
total fertilizer and labor cost was
around $22, and his profit, figuring,
corn at SI;SQ per bu. was $87.50.
We do not know of any higher yields
made by any Junior Club Members
in the central district of North Gar
lina, and we believe that Gordon
will win the first prize, or one of the
prizes' offered by the Chilean Ni
trate of Soda Educational Bureau.

Last year, four demonstrations in
different varieties of soy beans were
l conducted by four farmers in coop
* oration with the County Agent. Mr.
W. O. White of the Hanks Chapel
community, who conducted one of
these derc onstratinns, reports that
the Tar Heel Black variety of soy
bean showed more promise than any
f! ther variety. The Mammoth Yel
low, Laredo, Tokio and other varie
ties were grown in this test. Mr.
White reports that he saved one half
bushel of seed from three small rows
of the Tar Peel Black variety.

The last Monday, the Agent met
with the Siler City Rotary Club. Mr.
Dewey Dorsett, Secretary, appointed

with him in carrying out his various
farm projects during the coming

Experience of many years
in building long-lasting,
dependable mowers makes
possible this highly perfected
Case-Osborne Mower, For
simplicity of construction and
long continued service with
out adjustment, this mower
can’t be beat. ♦
All non-essential parts are
eliminated —working parts
are oversize to insure long
life. The fastest moving parts
have oversized bearings
pitman bearings are of the
toughest, hardest bronze.
Perfect alignment of the
cutter bar is secured — and
kept —on the Case-Osborne
Mower by a quick, positive,
aligning device. The bar has a
wide range of flexible up-and
down movement to allow
smooth, easy work on the
roughest ground —remarkable
strength to slash right through
its toughest job. Reduced fric-
Uon, dependable, trouble-free

possible advantages, mower
