A young rac;:o executive remarked gloomily the other day that Radio City seemed to be all full of the atrical agents, all of a sud den, the lot of them very busy with candidates for television acts. Like the talkies and radio, this new form of entertainment will probcb'.y go through that horrible first stage when anything goes. And the chil dren of today will be the television stars of tomorrow. Two of the big current pictures, "Only Angels Have Wings" and "Union Pacific," are going to make yon feel right at home as they un fold on the screen. Tou know their plots by heart.

June is one of the busiest months on the farm. Here are helpful suggestions from State College extension specialists and research workers which farmers may find both profitable and ad visable: Agronomy Extension Agronomist Enos Blair suggests that since June is harvest time for small grain in North Carolina, the grain should be harvested when it is dry, and if shocked in the field, the shocks should be built so as to withstand wind and so capped as to '"shed"' rain. The second important job is :he cultivation of growing crops. Cultivate corn, cotton, and to- bacco .-teadily during June at least every week or ten days. The third job is tv) get soybeans and cowpeas planted on the stubble "land left after the small grain is harvested. Fouith, corn and cotton shouU receive a topdressin of nitrate ci soda this month. The rule for cotton is at the first chopping au.i for corn when the plants are two to three feet high. Poultry. Roy Deaityne, head of the State College poultry Department says hot vvei.ther or.iy acids to the p.-o'.le:r.s of the poultry grower. In the case of young birds, some of things 'a :.to vvdinc remember inst po:;. e'.ir , si-r.nrate tin are: Vacci '.inate over cockerels the diet of p. an 'umo summer range !e plenty of fresh, nd cheek the birds :.-u;i :' r :: m 'kii parasites.

Livestock. Earl H. Hostetler, professor of Animal husbandry, says June is one month when beef cattle, sheep and swine need but scant atten tion: The beef cattle and sheep should be on pasture, and except for salt an. I water, they should not need any additional feed. If per manent pastures are being used, it will be necessary to drench the sheep periodically to coneral stom ach worms. If pigs are to be mer- ketcd in .September, they wid need to be put on a full feeding of grain, a protein supplement, and mim-ial in addition to pasture. IN MEMORIUM In memory of our loving son and brother, Atlas W. Glover, who died a year ago, June 1, 1939. Sad and sudden was the call of one so dearly love J by all; A zitter grief, a shock severe it was to part with one so dear. We often sit and think of you and speak of how you died; To think you could not say good- by before you closed your eyes. Enshrined within our memory are fondest thoughts of you, Your kindly eyes, your loving smile your heart so fine and true. And time will never, never dim our in-most hearts regret At loss of you our dearest, and we never will forget. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Glover and Family.

Stuart, seed specialist. He says: "Cotton seed from some of the fi nest fields in North Carolina were last to future production las fall because of improper storage. The same thing can happen to small grain this summer if the grower fails to handle his grain carefully from field to granary." Vegetables Robert Schmide. vegetable hor ticulturist of the Experiment Sta tion, says the first week in June is a good time to set sweet potato plants. Here are a few things to remember: Set the plants vj to V2 inches apart in rows 3 to 3 1-2 feet apart. A fairly high ridge seems to be di.-irabb for :oe Porto Rico variety. If it is neces sa:y to buy plants, insist an certi fied plants or plants :ro;n cwti fie.i seed. Fertilizer should be aop.ied in the r'.ia a few cays be fore planting. The recommended fertilizer should analyze 3 to 4 percent nitrogen, 8 percent phos phoric acid, and 8 per cent potash. lz should be applied at the rate of SOU pounds to the acre. Fruits. K. P..

In sections where leaf spot diseases have caused heavy losses of cantaloupes and watermelons, resulting in prema tuie ripening and poor quality, it is advisable to spray thoroughly with a 2-2-50 Bordeaux mixture.

Before the sow farrowed, Mr. Swain washed her thoroughly with soap and water, oiled her, and placed her on a one-fourth acre plot of green oats. When the pigs were 15 days old, a self feeder was placed in the oat patch. In the three compartments of the feeding device were corn, a miner al mixture, and fish meal, so that the pigs could eat their choice of any of the three feeds at any time.
