Assistant County Ag«nt; and Hattie F. Plummet Home Demonstration Agent. Land-scaping and yard beautifica tion have been the theme of the week’s work. Mr. John Harris, Ex tension Landscape Specialist from State College, was in the county for three days drawing up yard plans and advising men and women about planting. This was furthering our major project for the year, which will he carried through 1940. Plans for fourteen yards were made during the three days. On Thursday afternoon Mr. Har ris held a county meeting at the Middleburg Community House on landscaping the home yard. “Each individual plant”, he said, “should be planted for a definite purpose. It should meet one of these five re quirements: 1. Foundation planting, to tie the house to the yard. 2. Forming boundaries and separ atihg areas.* 3. Screening, to shut out undesir able views. 4. Shade trees. 5. Corner planting. If each plant does not answer one of these five purposes it is out of place/’ How does your plant arrange ment measure up? According to Mr. Harris the three fundamentals that are absolutely es sential for all yards ai’e: underpin ning the house, a good lawn, and shade trees. Mr. Harris also discussed lawns, explaining the preparation of the soil that is necessary before sowing the seed and giving proportions of seed mixture suitable for various regions. He advised those interested in this subject to write to him sos the pamphlet entitled “Better Lawns in North Carolina”. One point that was particularly stressed was that it is an erroneous idea that grass, especially Italian Rye, if allowed to go to seed will reseed itself. It only grows up in tall shoots, withers, and dies, leaving no grass for the next year. Grass should be cut as soon as it is high enough to be cut with the mower set at high. The more often it is cut the thfbker the grass becomes and the heavier the turf. A few of the subjects in this phase of study which will be taken up next year by the home demonstrations clubs will be pruning of shrubs, in sects and plant diseases, outdoor liv ing rooms, pools, rock gardens, and plant identification. Hay Slirould Be Cut At “Just Right Time.” No phase of farming requires bet ter timing than the cutting of hay. Much of the hay being fed in North Carolina is of low quality, and has a correspondingly low nutritive value, often due to being cut in the wrong stage of growth. The proper time to eut hay crops is when the greatest quantity of digestible nutrients can be obtained. With most crops, the percentage ot leafiness and protein content are highest soon after the plant begins to bloom. A little later the protein moves toward the seed, the stems be come woody, and the leaves next to the ground begin to fall. The best time to cut lespedeza is • when the crop is about one-half in i bloom; soybeans, when the pods are and the seed are about one-half developed; cowpeas, when the first pods begin to yellow; and small grain crops such as wheat, barley, and oats, when in late bloom or the early milk stage. The grasses, such as sudan and millet should be cut in the early bloom stage. The blooming period of these grasses is short and a few days , delay in cutting may result in a coarse, stemmy, unpalatable hay. Weeds and other foreign materials is usually the result of a poor stand of hay crops. Heavy seeding, there fore, is one of the first essentials in producing good hay. Thin stands pro mote a growth of a coarse stemmed hay in which there is a high per centage of waste when it is fed. Value of Turning Under Legumes. An average growth of legumes turned under will add to the soil the equivalent of 500 to 750 pounds of nitrate of soda per acre, or 1,400 to 9 000 pounds of cottonseed meal. This is substantially true whether the seed are harvested or the entire plant turned under. If legumes which have been in oculated are plowed under, the or -1 ganic matter of the soil will be in creased by the tons of dry materials turned in, and the nitrogen by about 40 pounds for .each ton of dry ma- terial (roots, stemps, leaves, etc.,) added to the soil. This means an addition to the sgil of the equivalent of 250 pounds of nitrate of soda, or about 700 pounds of cottonseed meal, for each ion of dry material. A good growth of le gumes turned under should supply at least two or three tons of ary organic matter. When legume crops are removed from, the soil for hay or otherwise, the best that can be done would be to about maintain the original nit rogen reserves of the soil, and sus tain a loss of the phosphoric acid and potash that would require, in* the case of soybeans, applications of 50 pounds of 1 per cent superphosphate and 53 pounds of 50 per cent muriate of potash, for each ton of material removed. The. replacements of phosphoric acid and potash required in the case of other legumes removed would not be any -less than soybeans, in most cases more. Barter Theatre Is In Seventh Season At Abingdon, Va. Abingdon, Va., Aug. 19. —Robert Porterfield’s Barter Theatre is near ing the end of its seventh summer season. Started seven years) pgo with a small group of actors who were willing to trade their lalents for whatever barter patrons had to offer, this theatre has grown io a group of more than eighty actors and technicians, with three com panies that troupe the surround ing towns and present a new show in Abingdon each week. At some time during the summer Porterfield manages to try out several experi mental plays, to produce new plays by American authors and even to encourage the writing ol cheater pieces by the members ol his com pany. Costume design and scene painting is, of course, an integral part of every Barter summer pro gram. ' “This year “susquehanna 7” and “We’ll take the Highroad” were new plays tried out, the latter oaving already been bought by Max ’~ror don for production this faft in New York. “Henry IV” represents this season’s fling at Shakespeare, while “Lady Baltimore” is the summer’s contribution to the field of music, being an operetta by Fred Stewart who wrote the music for “Every where I Roam” which will be re peated against this year. Barter offers a variety of activi ties and opportunities to young actors, for each play is the respon sibility of every member of the group.

The two score hopefuls will gath er nere the first of September to start the race for prized berths— starting and relief—on the 1939 eleven, which opens against The Citadel here September 23. Coach Ray Wolf will be beginning his fourth season here. The number to receive the early practice call included a veteran nucleus of 12 lettermen, covering every position except right hylfback. Tar Heel supporters are expect ing a team about as strong as last year’s which won six games, lost tv/o, and tied one. However, the off season loss of Dan Desich, Walter Palanske and Jim Learning has created some knotty problems around guard and tackle. The concensus corns to be that as the guards ana tackles develop, so will go the Tar Heels. The ends appear to be weil fortified, center adequate, and cue backfield fast and versatile, though not heavy. The list of leading prospects to receive the early practice call fol lows: Left end: Paul Severin, Fred Stall ings, Ernest Forest, John Elliott, Stewart Richardson. Right end: Chuck Kline, Jim Mallory, Jack Connelly, Frank Doty. Left tackle: Dick White, Christian Siewers, George Spransy, Ed Moyni han, Jim Sheek. Right tackle: Gates Kimball, Leroy Abernathy, Richard Sieck, Gwynn Nowell. Left Guard: Co-Capt. Jim Wood son, Bill Blalock, Ed Megson, Bob Stoinoff, Frank Saylor. Right guard: Charlie Slagle, Julian Brantley, Bill Faircloth, Claude Myers. Center: Bob Smith, Carl Sunthei mer, George Ralston, Horace Benton. Quarterback: Co-Capt. George Stirnweiss, Jim Lalanne, Frank O’Hare, Adolph Craft. Left halfback: George Radman Don Baker, Harold Amoss. Right halfback: Mike Bobbitt, Roy Lee Conners, Charlie Baker, Allen Pat terson.
