Last yea there was a shortage of feed fo all the hogs raised. As a resul the farmers ana slock raises, i: most cases, had to fall back o high priced feeds. High prices fo feed and low prices for the hog when they were ready for marke discouraged many hog raiser from trying for more hogs tha they had feed for this yea.

Bang's Disease j Under Control r Columbus County was Plac -! ed In The ' Accredited t List Of Counties In State a Some Time Ago RALEIGH, Dec. 14. ? Bang's e disease is under control in North e Carolina, and consequently cerk tain vaccines now being employe ed should not be used "promisr cuously," according to Dr. Wil, liam Moore, who charged recently hot on ottnmnt \iril1 ho mado ir? j. uiui on aviviikj/v ??*** wv iiiuuv ?? the next Legislature to amend pre, sent laws so as to permit "promiscuous vaccination." * "Recently, we have heard and s read much about Bang's vaccine, t Strain 19. 1 recognize the value r of this vaccine when it is employe ed under, proper supervision in -1 calves between the ages of four r and eight months in badly infectr ed herds," said Dr. Moore, but he t added that he is "unalterably opn posed" to its use otherwise, n Dr. Moore gave the following r reasons for his opposition to this s vaccine in adult cattle: t 1. There is not sufficient sciens tific information to justify such n use. 2. Such vaccination produces a reaction, often permanent, that '.Si Xlwa By DT RATE 0 R E ORT, N. C.

This vaccine has been found very dangerous to man. 4. Its use will obscure the present Bang's test, which is a most valuable diagnostic test. 5. Use of this vaccine will lead to promiscuous use and result in a decrease of proper herd management sanitation and other practices necessary for the prevention of a contagious or infectious disease and may lead to ;a position comparable to the present hog cholera situation, which would be most regrettable. 6. Such vaccination is not the best interests of the cattle industry nn, der conditions existing in North Carolina. Dr. Moore reported that on July 1, 1!)42, the State Department oi Agriculture completed Bang's teslii.g of all cattle in the state reducing the infection to less than one per cent, Columbus is one of the 100 counties in the state were placed in the Bang's accredited area. This program, which started in 1932, involved the application of 1,240,668 tests and retests in which 20,402 reactors were found and disposed of by slaughter and the owners paid in indem1 nity. "Since July 1, 1942, we have continued to test and retest all herds in which it is believed Hint infection might exist. During the two-year period ending last June \ 30 we applied 263,141 tests, re' suiting in 2,500 reactors being ! found. ? ! "These results certainly indiicate that Ba'g's disease is under ' civtrol in this State, especially j when we consider that 50 per cent ! of these tests were made in in! fected herds during a time when 1 most herds were being increased, when there was a shortage of \ manpower and a consequent lack of proper herd management and sanitation, and when there was the greatest movement of cattle within and from without the State that we have ever experienced," said Dr. Moore, j "According to Dr. Moore, scvi cral herd owners, mostly com| merrial dairies, have vaccinated all their cattle with the Bang's rw I YOU! f New Year les will soon drifting over 1 and countryIt's time to w dull care : and renew intances. 945 about to V lebut, we can lothing more te than that )red greeting, ew Year! rading Co.

Soil District Officials Meet f.sflip-in^ Of Officials At District Offica At Whiteville Sirica Organi[ zation Formed | With the cganization just recently c. mpieted, the first meeting of the Supervisors of the Lower Cape Fair Soil ConservaDistrict was held in the District offi e at Whiteville on December 1. D. C. Harrelson of Bladen county, chariman of the Board of Supervisors, presided over the nieeting and at the business session M. L. Inman, of Whiteville, was selected secretary, replacing LeRoy Mintz, of Shailotte. Mr. Mintz resigned the post of secretary some time ago in order to become Soil Supe: visor in Brunswick county. Soil Conservaticn'ats from all of the four counties in the district, Pender, Bladen, Columbus and Brunswick gave reports of the progress of the Conservation ; Program in their counties. County Agents Dodson of Bunswick and Raper of Columbus gave their evaluation cf the program and outlined their ideas of the job that is to be done. The district conservationist, H. M. Stott, reported his finding on the extent of the aid that can be expected from the U. S. Soil Conservation Service during the present war itme conditions. E. C. Jernigan, assistant State Soil Conservationist, outlined! work that has been done in vari-! ; ous soil conservation districts in the state. He emphasized that each district was responsible for the execution of its own program.! He said that the board of super- j ? BHBDBB2HBBBBHRSBB _ ? OT, SOUTHPORT, N.

Fertilizer Helps Small Grain Yield ; Small grain yields in North Carolina under average conditions can be increased, first, through the use of fertilizer at seeding; and second, through a topdressing of nitrogen in early spring. W. J. Rankin of the Agricultural Experiment -Station at State College has tested small grains under a wide range of soil conditions, cropping systems, and fertilizer practices. He reports on fertilizer responses from small grains following lightly fetilized crops, heavily fertilized crops, and following large crops of legumes turned under. In the first group, following' lightly fertilized crops, largest yields of grain were obtained from the use of a complete fertilizer at planting and a nitrogen topdressing in the spring. The yield of wheat averaged 31.1 bushels per acre. In group two, following heavily fertilized crops, the yield of wheat was not increased by ap-) plications of phosphate and potash | but nitrogen gave good increases. I In the third group where leg- i umcs were turned on a clay soil, I | ^ I ^ ^ WA 1 | u the yield of wheat wa9 not in-' I-~~~~~? creased by nitrogen either at * * BOND seeding or as a topdresser in thej spring. On the other hand, appli-j cations of phosphate in potash at America's first succe; seeding gave increases in yield, i ful oil well was drill at Titusville, Pa.

"Labor short- J ages in the fertilizer plants, lack of sufficient storage room, and ' railway transportation difficulties point to a bottleneck in fertilizer; ? ? deliveries next spring," Collins rOT T OUT Am ? ? said.
