Aug. 3.?"Tabor 1 City's newest and best," is the slogan of the Carolina warehouse I to be operated this season by Buck Peay. of Tabor City, and George and King Walden, bro-1 thers, of near South Boston. Va. | Although this is Mr. Peay's I second year as operator of the Carolina warehouse he has been J directly connected with the Tabor City tobacco market for a I number of years in various capacities and is widely known through his many business contacts with the farmers of this section of the state. Mr. Peay feels particularly fortunate in getting the two Wal- j den brothers as his partners in the operation of the Carolina this season, as both are experienced tobacco warehousemen. George and King Walden are sons of J. S. Walden, one of the operators of the Carolina for 18 years up to three years ago. His two sons are glad of the opportunity to succeed their fatlter and will welcome their father's friends and former customers to sell! with them. Both King and George Walden were practically born in a tobacco warehouse and have grown up in the business. As boys they worked several seasons with their father in Tabor City. They have operated warehouses in both the Old Belt and on the Border belt. For the past 10 years they have operated a warehouse on the Loris, S. C. market. Both of the Walden boys are keen judges of tobacco and know well the type of tobacco offered for sale on this market and know how to sell it for the most possible money. The Waldens will lead the sale and Buck Peay will back it up. assuring each customer the best possible sale and efficient handling of his tobacco. In addition to the above the Carolina has a complete and experienced staff of warehouse help to assure each farmer and customer good service on each sale. Old Hens Need * Some Moist Mash C. F. Parrish, Extension poultry specialist of N. C. State College. says the feeding of a moist mash at noon each day will help 1 to increase summer egg production. He recommends that three pounds of dry mash be moistened with milk or water and fed to each 100 birds. "As soon as f the birds finish eating, turn the I mash troughs over so that flies ! will not congregate in the laying house," he says. The poultry specialist also advises the supplying of 4 to 5 gallons of cool, fresh water each ?ES AGAIN ?< 11 ~T I' ' k *W**?>L I ~ ).?Buck Peay, operator of jor City, did not let the tire from calling on his farmer ed up old Dobbin and went picture is Mr. Peay and his his outfit at Ma-.

"Remember," he says, "twothirds of each egg is water and hens can't produce eggs if the drinking fountain is dry. Then too, you can get '13 cents for water when selling eggs at 20 cents per dozen. Therefore, provide plenty of fresh, clean water at all times." DWARF TREES Agricultural experiment stations in many States and foreign countires are conducting experiments to develop a dwarfed variety of apple tree, which would simplify spraying and harvesting. DISEASE A warning of the danger that farmers may contract undulant fever by handling swine at farrowing time when the farmer has cuts or abrasions on his hands has been issued by the American Foundation for Animal Health. ROTATION HELPS CURB DISEASES (Continued From Page One) tive disease control can be accomplished only by intelligent rotation adjusted to specific diseasecontrol problems. In other words, just hit-or-miss rotation for any and all tobacco troubles won't do. Different diseases call for different crop rotations." The specialists cited as an example that bare following is no help at all in clearing up soil in festation with Granville wilt. To control that disease, the land, after a crop of tobacco, needs to be cropped to corn, velvet beans or soybeans, cowpeas, small grain, or grasses. The U. S. Department of Agriculture reported that tests on Granville wilt at Creedmoor in Granville County showed the value of the tobacco crop in various rotations tanged from nothing with continuous tobacco, to S12C an acre for tobacco after redtop and S129 for tobacco after corn On the other hand, bare fallowj ing is very effective with rool | knot disease. Soil infested with i root knot is reduced most rapidI ly with such crops as peanuts | velvet beans, small grains, crotaI laria, and native weeds. The practical application 01 those findings are obvious. II root knot is the problem, rest the land and allow it to become cov ered with native weeds. If Gran ville Wilt is the trouble, covei it with crab grass. MAY GET PAMPHLET ON WEED DISEASES (Continued From Page One) ed on tobacco in North Carolins near Walkertown in Forsytl County, about 1920. It is also < root and stem disease. The diseasi has spread rapidly in Forsytl County and has made its appear ance in local areas in practical!: all of the counties in the Old Belt In 1936 the disease was found 01 one farm in the vicinity of Win terville in Pitt County, which ii in the New Belt. Within fiv< ! years time it had spread to ap j proximately 20 farms in the Win - ' ' ? tcrvillc area.

RULES ARE GIVEN FOR EGG QUALITY (Continued From Page One) | those smeared with those brokj en. Dirty eggs result in a direct loss to the producer of eight to I ten cents per dozen as compared | with the same eggs clean. If holding eggs for more than J twenty-four hours they should be packed in cases with the small end of the egg down. Avoid rough handling as severe jolting may not only cause breakage, but a churning of the contents sufficient to render the egg a total loss. Do not keep eggs in a dry place. Temperature is a vital factor in the consen-ation of egg quality. Eggs held at 70 degrees F. or higher will drop more in quality in twenty-four hours than the same eggs held at 50 degrees F. would in ten days. Hold eggs on the farm at 60 to 70 derees F. market eggs as soon as possible after they arelaid. High Quality eggs are a result of feeding a properly balanced ration. Clean nests, yards, and houses will aid in the production of good clean eggs, and careful handling and gathering often I helps insure you against losses through inferior quality. Longer Selling Season (Continued From Page One) "May I request that you use j every possible means to get the | proper spread between the open-! ing of our Belt and the Old Belt, j The S. C. Belt opening August 4 and Old Belt October 6 will give I . us eight weeks. With the present shortage of labor, we cannot even sell our crop in that time. Please go all out for our cause." R. C.

"After listening to your very I fine and fair speech in Mullins, 1 especially your remark about the i proper spacing of the different I Belt openings, may I ask your support in seeing that there is at i least eight weeks between the \ i opening of the S.
