Averys Gulf Stream Garden Here QUESTION: When is the best , time to plant cotton in the Pied- J mont section? ANSWER: The best planting dates for this area are from April 20 to 30 and up to May ." in the western portion and along th northern edge of the Cotton Belt. Cotton planted early has a much better chance under boll weevil conditions and where seasonal con ditions warrant it is recommended that planting be made as early as possible. However, growers sel dom profit by too early planting as the seed will rot an i result in a poor stand. Personality Bits QUESTION: How soon after birth is it safe to feed grain an J bay to dairy calves? ANSWER: Small amounts of moth grain and buy should be of fered the calf at two weeks of ago or when the substitution of skitn milk for whole milk begins.

B. Avery's "Gulf Stream Gardens" began to bloom last week-end. It is the first time that Iris have been shipped from Carteret in wholesale commercial quantities, and .Mr. Averey says th ; prices are very good and that he is proving that these beautiful flowers, sometimes called "poor man's orchid" can be grown suc cessfully for commercial purposes, j Frosts have not damaged the flower crops at Avery's Gardens and indications are that the 20 or more acres he has devoted to flower culture will be a blaze of beauty at an early date. His farm was formerly known as "Sunny side Flower Farm," but he chang ed the name to Gulf Stream Gar dens a few months ago, because he puts it. "After all it was the near ness of the Gulf Stream to the coast, affording an ideal climate for flower growing, that brought me here in the first place. Mr. 'Avery'came to Carteret from Ohi . He is the largest grower of flow ers in the county. This week he predicts that gladiolus would proh ably be a couple of weeks later this year than in previous years due to the abnormally cold winter.

Rut Jack says, "Who is he for me to get miffed about anything he thinks. I KNOW I'm good." i QUESTION : What is the prop er planting distance for sweet po tato plants? ANSWER: The plants should be spaced 12 inches apart in rows from three to three and one-half feet apart. Close planting reduc es the number of "Jumbos" and also reduces the losses from stem lot. Where the crop is to be har vested for the early market the planting should be at least 18 inch es in rows three feet apart. Plant ing on a high ridge is recommend ed and better stands are secured on freshly made ridges unless the plants are watered. . . . these are better wines NtW YORK STATE IDidmcu 7 HILLSIDE Tin Pasture Henry Takes Bribe lb u-v Aldi'ch linds that money sometimes grows on hall trees when bis sister's new beau conies c.illir.g in "The Aldrich Family, starring Ezra Stone, on WPTF Tuesday, April 23, at 7:30 p.m. A series of ml adventures starts which plunges the lad Into troubles 'otnitlr nd flnnvtul Bible Stories Unacted The Story of All of Vs. diamatn radio series for young people, wi! fit early Bible Stories in then places in world history on Sunday April 21, at 12 noon, over NBC through WPTF.

Town CI With The Atlantic Schools The outstanding ev nt of the vcek in Atlantic v a -. the fine sthool fair and exhibit at the High School building. For several years this has been a feature of the school each year in the spring time. Under direction of Piinci pal J. Albert Batson and his abl" staff of teachers, the fair this year was by far the best yet held. Wei! laid plans early in the year, ami with the experience of the past years to draw from, the work was both a thing of beauty and a credit to the teachers directing and the ability of the pupils of th eschooi from the first grade thru the grad uating class. The Exhibit in the fine new gymnasium was in detail :-r, follows: Around the fireside -:adesl-2 Mrs. J. A. Batson; Our Country Life grades 3-4 Miss Morris; Colonial America jrtades 5-6 Miss Williams; Amer ican Transportation grade 7 Hr.

Firr.t Grade seer ml idace. ; I Tl-w. ! .ivd.i n ovo niiwlo s-.s a ri.oilH of the voting done by the huge at tendance of patrons of the school and other in attendance. The feature of the program was the three-act play on Peace direc ted by the hiah school faculty and the dramatic department of the school. The Rhythm Band :inder direction of Mrs. Batson was the highlight of the evening. More than twenty-five small children de rected by one of their number ren dered music to the delight of all. The Glee Club sang several numbers relating to peace. This efficient group of young people un der direction of Miss Yount, is in demand at every performance in Atlantic where singing and music are desired. The progiam drew to a close with an address by Mr. J. G. Allen, Superintendent of Carteret Coun ty Schools. Mr. Allen voiced the full approval of the large attend ance the largest ever to attend a fair program here in savine Salter; Our Heritage that he had not seen nor witnessed I a better pi I and exhibit 1 plav in A'.! I interested the people tu Atlantic ! iwt.-l was the reference to the fine work which the School had done the past five or six ears. During v. !:iili time many improvements had been made in work done in the : vhooi and aiso much improvement t.. school building and grounds. B'aL the best of all was the an ; nouneement of what is proposed to : be done between now and the t pening of school next September, j Among the repair and improve : nieiits to be made on the building the following took lead: More i healing for certain rooms, weath eist-ip windows to keep out cold ' in winter, rewiring the building ior a oeiier ugnting system, en elarging the stage in the auditori um w hich is much needed, repaii ? or new floors to be laid, outside steps to be replaced with new ones, wash rooms to be repaired and bet ter equipped. These were outlined ' y Mi. Allen, and with the assur ance that they would be attended to just as soon as appropriations ! such work could be made an i Irmls secured. Each of these re pairs were much needed, and the people of Atlantic were overjoyed at the announcement made by the speaker. Attention was culled to the fact 'hat many of the class looms were too small and not well arranged, and it was hoped that s- mething could be done about this matter. Mr. J. Albert Batson and his staff of teachers came in for high praise by all present for the fine work they are doing. Atlantic is most fortunate in having a leader like Mr. Batson and his wife. They are popular in all circles and are leaders in the social and religious life of the community as well as in educational matters. Likewise, the teachers. Miss Williams, Miss Yount, Mrs. Salter, Miss Morris, Mr. Abernathy, and Mr. Chadwick are held in high esteem by the com munity. And it is the expressed wish of the community that this fine group of teachers will remain intact for the coming year. From the fine applause given at the con clusion of the program, the entire community is of full accord with the school work being done by Mr. Allen in the county, and the able staff of men and women in charge of the Atlantic School as now constituted.

Farm Corn Ordinarily the United States can be expected to consume do mestically and sell abroad about 2, 4."0,000.000 bushels of corn, or about 19 bushels for every man, woman, and child in this country. I I hr A home-made kx.ip brooder that will accomodate from o0 to Cm chicks can be constructed for as little as $5.00 to $7."0, says C. F. Parrish, poultry extension special ist of N. C. State College. It is of simple design, easy to operate, and is heated by one to three amps, de pending upon the severity of (he weather. Plans for building a home-made lamp brooder may be obtaineu from county farm or hame agents, or from the Extension IVmltryman ' at State College, Raleigh, upon I request for Blue Print No. 4C. Parrish said the lamp brooder is intended for operation in a pro ! tected place, such as under a wood shed or wagon shed, preferably where the wind will not blow di rectly on the brooder, yet the sun : will shine directly on the sun poi c.i , attached. Here are general directions t!v? specialist gives for such a poultry unit: The brooder is constructei in two parts. The bottom section houses the lamps; the top section accomodates the chicks. The tray tnai separates tne two sections is i coveud with 2Ct or 28 gauge tin. ; The tin side is placed downward, next to the flame of the lamp, and ! the top part of the tray is covered I over with one inch or more of i sharp, coarse, dry sand. The i chimney cf the lamp should be one to one and one-half inches below , the metal tray which divides the ; top and bottom sections. The tray should be kept covered with sand at all times. This acts not only as a conductor of heat, but also as a litter. It should be kept clean at all times. A sun porch is attached, and af ter the first few days the chicks may be allowed to run on it in mild weather. The roof, or top of the brooder may be covered with tin or roofing paper.
