C. ANNUAL REPORT MADE OF FARM STUDIES Raleigh, N. C., April 26?How the North Carolina Experiment Statijn is studying the various farm prob lems 'of this state is given in the Forty ninth annual report of the station just published by Director R. i. Winters. "A feature of the report is that we have assembled all of the faets submitted to us by our research work ers and have condensed them into simple /statements which show the progress made on each line of inves tigation," says Director Winters. "Our work has been conducted along lines previously approved. All the1 projects which were not active and which were not bringing in the desir ed information have been closed and only those lines of work which we consider of value to the improvement of agriculture in this State, have been retained." Dr. Winters states that the new funds sccured through the passage of the Purncll Act have made it pos sible to balance and strengthen ag ricultural research. These funds last year were applied to studies of fann management and oiganization, stand ards of-living, cooperative marketing problems, the relation of feed and sex in beet' cattle to quality of meat and the relation of feeds to the soft |M)ik problem. The annual report consists ojf 77 pages of information with (several photographs showing phases of the different investigations. Facts found about soils and crops, animal hus bandry, horticultural crops, poultry, farm management, botany, nutrition, marketing and rural sociology are in cluded in the report. Only 1,000 copies of the report were printed and these are not in tended for general distribution. Anv r.

Roane & Varner BETTER FRUIT GROWN WHEN PROPERLY THINNED Raleigh, N. C. April 26?Despite the 'late frosts and freezes which have seriously curtailed the fruit crop of North Carolina this year, it still may be a wise plan to thin the fruit on those trees which have set a heavy crop. "Some thinning is absolntely nec essary to produce fruit of highest ! quality,"' says E. B. Morrow, exten-l sion horticulturist at State College "The practice should be more wide ly adopted in North Carolina. The objects of thinning are to increase the size, color and uniformity of the fruit; to prevent the branches from breaking by overloading; to reduce the amount of disease and insect in jury by removal of affecte^ fruits and to maintain the vigor of the tree by regulating the amount of fruit." Mr. Morrow states .that the amount of fruit can be regulated to the strength of the tree or the fertilizer which has been placed abottit it. The time to thin is before the 6eeds or pits harden. For peaches, this occurs about six weeks after the period of full bloom and a good rule to follow for both apples and peach es is to thin when they arc as thick through as a quarter or the size of the end of a man's thumb. In th( vicinity of Raleigh, states Mr. Mor row, the peaches .should be thinned this year about the first or second week in May and the apples fmm ten davs to two weeks later. ?T { How wide to spsce the fruit on the trees depends on a number of thin<&, such as the vigor of the tree, the fertility of the soil, the supply of moisture in the soil and the use to be made of tiie fruit. As a general rule, however, Mr. Morrow advises that peaches be thinned to stand from 4 to fi inches apart 011 the limb and the apples thinned to one fruit per cluster. This will aid in assuring good quality fruit, well colored, ant1 of a size that will bring best priccs TRIBUTE xO WILLARD NORMAN Willard X<>rman Was horn April .'{0, 1013, and died at the age of i3 (years, 8 months and 10 days. He pro fessed faith in Christ in a meeting conducted by Rev. Ij. H. Crawford and Ben C;:ok, about tliree months before his death, an(| jooined thi Ochre Hill Baptist church. His untimely death brings sorrow to all who had the pleasure of know ing him. His christian life was short, but the few davs were not wasted. We feel ossured that lie helped to lead one lost, soul to Clirjst. Wc believe that he let his light so shine that his influence will live on with his associates; that it will lead them when death conies, to where, we he lieve the spirit of this young boy has so tarly flown. His little test anient, which he carried in his pocket fynd read each aright, * shows to us that he was endeavoring to live right. He was a bright-eyed boy?a jewel placed dn the home, to bring glad ness to his father and mother. At the early hge of thirteen, thio flower has flown \ away but the fragrance of its perfume will remain with us forever. Whiles we know that tii* I separation was hard for those lives entwined with his, yet we feel and realize that their loss was his eternal gain. While his death was sudden an<| ^br.jpking, we should be comforted with the, thought that his suffering was short, only the sting of death, and death is a dooiway that opens somewhere. We fancy as the dour swerved oj>en, that Willard's spirit was watted on angel's wings and borne heavenward. Willard was an intelligent child in school; none in his class couf] sur pass him. Had he lived to have fin ished his grade, he would have enter ed high school next year. He was an excellent Sunday School student, al ways willing to take instruction from his teacher and always knew his les sons well. His teacher states th;: Sunday before his- death lie answered every question in the lesson. Since he citizen interested in the w:rk cf the Station may have a copy, 1 iwever, if he will apply to Director Winters. JCOlDS Recommended and Sold by SYLVA PHARMACY made his peace and calling sure with God, he seemed to want to avoi,^ things of a sinful nature and asked at different times if certain things were sinful, before he would take, any part, or participate in any way. i We know that no words we wil1 utter will lessen the grief of' the be reaved father and mother, but we j .mutft be willing to submit to the Will j of our Heavenly Father and lean on his promises. He will not put on us more than we are able to bear. It will be a blessed recollection, in years 10 come, to know that Willard grew up to love and to be loved by those who will ever so tenderly cherish his sweut! and pure memory. Weep not, dear friends, for hi:.?. He is not dead. Though his body h.".s j parsed into, silent dust, his soul has j put on the robe of immortality, lie awaits your coming, with outstretched* hands. His body was laid on the hilltop. ( in the Norman cemetery, to await the final call. He departed this life January 9, 1927. Mrs. Ethel Sutton Mrs. Oma Sutton Mrs. Sarah Queen J. R. Blanton Committee.
