The Fedeial Emergency Re- ji Aammistration will put another I ^ tillion anti a half into direct un-lc employment and poor relief mostly 11 through and in cooperation withjr ?i wni aeencies. IJ WiU iwvvI aen there are the payments unIfertile wheat, corn-hog, cotton and Hpftrco contracts, though much of ci does not come directly out of vvCTjnent funds but is collected i^Hthroigh processing taxes and disby Government agencies. B -jj belief in Administration I circksis now that it will take about I another year of Government spend jQg at this rate to stimulate busily to the point where private tapital will find it profitable to lame out of hiding and go to work B productive industries. Admit Some Slips H It is admitted by the AdminlstraKor/s friends that recovery has not Btme as fast as had been expected, fld that some of the Government's Bojects to stimulate it have not ^Borited. There is also a growing Realization that business men and Bapitalists are not showing any Beat amount of confidence in the Bovernment. Until that confidence Rums, there will naturally be Rale inclination on the part of Rtivate capital to risk its money. I Where investments are most Bteded right now are in the build- f IBg industry. More than 5,000,000 s Bee, normally, are employed in the Balding trades. c | It has been President Roosevelt's * T tope that under the carefully work8 out plan for insuring mortB&e capital against loss, private * Bkds in enormous amounts would become available for new residen tial construction. It now begins to as if, while there is a great c "Klor new homes, few people are 1 i% as yet to run into debt to or build houses. I Fair and Reasonable Profits With Congress out of the way "" Btil next January there can be no m* legislation, and the nation can g Bj? time to sit back and evaluate t B8' has been enacted, and find B whether it looks, on the whole ^ B?eficial or injurious to private r Bpital and enterprise. Ijhere seems to be a feeling that ? B* President will not willingly use ^ V8 broad powers granted to him ? B injurious way, that he is esBtlally conservative. In his rem '-'i statement expounding his B^ for the future he took pains stress on the statement that P*fe is to be no interference with B8^ and reasonable profits. I/1* Administration's friends beW*ttlat as things quiet down durB*lhe summer, business men will B?J t0 rcalize that a good many BJ-e things that have frightened Br?8:e bogies, without real pow?r Bj 0 "letn harm. Also, it looks EL ?'Jgh the whole AdministraBtr ,program has now been dis ?ed. I High Spots of New Deal |l 1 The Federal Government is now i V control ot the activities of all cf j ( citizens to an extent that, three j B"5 ago, would have been deemed .< Bpossible in America. Three years c Confess was debating whether 1, Hj**s any part of The Government's U Br*! to share the burden of relief 1] tlae destitute. Now it is the ac - U BPted thing, with proposals for old-11 B* Pensions and unemployment in-1] ?h a national scale coming I ] B^Pvemment is now the only im I] B^aht source of credit on a large n and besides its direct loans! industry it owns a billion dollars] ^Preferred stock in the banks of B hation. The Government now Warrenton, North Caralhu regulates the issuing and trading in of securities, tells industry what rules must be followed in business regulates interstate communications, tells the railroads how much they may pay their officials and tells farmers what they may grow and how much of it. Those are onlj the high spots of the New Deal. There is little likelihood of any :hange in the attitude of Congress it the next session. That is, there undoubtedly will be a Democratic majority in both houses of the 74th Congress. Whether or not it will ;at out of the President's hand as readily as the present Congress is lot quite so certain. But it certainly will not withdraw any of the pow;rs that have been granted. New Developments In Tobacco Program The government is making prepxrations for measuring accurately ,he acreage rented by tobacco growers who signed reduction contacts. OinKo nom vnHnorc Via va ViAAn m?fli? i?vn * ..MTV WW. - ;o allow a reduction of only 20 instead of the original 30 per cent, if ;he grower chooses, those who have in acreage in excess of the 70 per :ent allotment will have two ihoices: They may either decire to make i crop reduction between 20 and 30 jer cent, with a corresponding reiuction in the amount of rental ind benefit payments, or they may >low up the surplus planting, ac:ording to E. Y. Floyd, of State College, tobacco program director n North Carolina. Growers who reduce only 20 per :ent below their base acreage will ose one-third of the benefit paynents they were scheduled to get. V graduated scale has been prejared for payments to growers vhose reductions fall between the wo extremes. Provision has also been made hat if the reductions in acreage md in poundage do not coincide, he rental payments will be based >n the amount of reduction in xmndage. Floyd estimated that few North Carolina growers have selected the !0 per cent reduction when plantng their crops this year, as they vould thereby incur the risk of osing more on their benefit and ental payments than the extra jrofit on the increased production vould amount to. To date, North Carolina tobacco jrowers have received $6,000,000 in jayments from the government. The $2,000,000 equalization paynents have almost been completed, md $3,992,507.23 of the rentals have ilready been disbursed. Farm Questions And Answers Question: Should cod liver oil be ed to developing birds during the ummer months? Answer: Where an ample supply if succulent green feed is available he cod liver oil is usually left out. Je sure, however, that the green eed is not too fibrous as there are nv .orrassps weeds and certain ""'V 'o- , :ereal crops that are not suitable or grazing: due to the fiber content, [tie best plan is to plant special rops for birds on range. Complete nformation on these grazing crops s found in Experiment Station Buletin No. 282 which may be had by vriting to the Agricultural Editor, Jtate College, Raleigh. Question: Should beans be sprayd or dusted for control of the bean >eetle? Answer: Spraying, when properly lone, has consistently given better esults than dusting but, when ains are not frequent during the :eason, dusting will give satisfacory results. Both applications ihould be made to the under side >f the leaves as all feeding is done >n that side. Magnesium arsenate las proven the safest and most efective poison when applied either is a spray or dust. For spraying >ne pound of the magnesium should >e mixed with 50 gallons of water ind applied at the rate of 90 to 100 jallons to the acre. One pound of nagnesium and three to five sounds of hydrated lime make a ;ood mixture for dusting. This is ipplied at the rate of 10 to 15 t/i the acre. /VVU*V?u vv Question: Do you recommend the ;rench silo for use in the Coastal Plain section of eastern Carolina? Answer: Yes, if a suitable location :an be found near the barn. There ire a number of sections in eastern Carolina where clay soil exists and vhere the silo may have proper Irainage. Under these conditions, ;he trench silo Is recommended. However, it is not recommended for the level, flat lands where water may seep into the trench during a prolonged rainy season. A hill side location is preferable with the trench being dug back into the hill providing natural drainage from the bottom. R. R.

Two farmers of different sections in the eastern part of the State have recently given a good example of how their production has increased when legumes were utilized to improve soil fertility. B. B. Howell of Edgecombe county, rotates lespedeza with cotton, peanuts, and oats. In 1933 he made 31 bales of cotton following the growth of lespedeza as compared with 22 bales in 1932 on the same acreage. In 1932 the cotton followed peanuts instead of lespedeza. In 1933 he harvested 1671 pounds of peanuts per acre, after the soil had been built up with lespedeza, while in former years he had averaged about 970 pounds to the acre, He stated, "The rotation bears out fully my argument that I can make just as much produce on the land with two years' cultivation with lespedeza as I could with three years' cultivation in the old way. I thus save the expense of one year's cultivation and reduce the unit cost of production." In 1929, Ralph C. Mason of Hertford county decided that he wanted higher yields on fewer acres. That year h?s started a rotation in which vetch was turned under for soil improvement. Now he sows and turns under 35 acres of this crop every year. "Before I began my rotation," said Mason, "I did well to make 12 bags (48 bushels) of peanuts to the acre. Now I can easily make 18 bags (72 bushels)." He also said that it is much more satisfactory to farm in this way than to have the pleasure of cultivating a large acreage of low-yielding land, as he did formerly.

Soil Preparation For Alfalfa Production The first step in growing alfalfa is to build up the fertility of soils on which it is to be planted unless they are already in good condition, says R. J. Harris, superintendent of the central experiment station farm at State College. When the soil is acid, one to three tons of lime should be applied to the acre. He suggested that growers send samples of their soil to State College to be tested so that the amount of lime needed to neutralize any existing acid conditions can be determined. Soil that has been neglected or which is in a poor state of fertility should have heavy applications of ) M|i| P'1' 5 Jill lli,, ate with us our victory it battle against other written unconditional JS. ; I ;ration decided in our tory?deciding that the lutely fair and equitaendent tire dealer to outstanding quality and and giving the general f knowing they can not ?re is no change in our ill stands as was.

Then a crop of soybeans should be grown and turned under. In the fall the field should be plowed and allowed to lie fallow during the winter freezes. Sow lespedeza in February and turn it under when it has reached maximum growth, which should not be later than September 1. The crop should be disked well before being turned under. Then the lime should be disked into the soil and the field left to stand for two weeks. Next should be an application of 600 pounds of 4-12-4 fertilizer per acre and another disking, followed by a section harrow and then a cultipacker. Following the two seasons of preparing the soil, at least 25 pounds of quality alfalfa seed should be sown to the acre by drill or by hand between September 15 and October 15. 4*V* ? ^a11 ^ AAn v\ r-\ ^ XJ.

Bacteria cultures and soil from fields which have been growing alfalfa are good innoculants. Farmers whose soil is in a high state of fertility may start their alfalfa crops this fall without going through the two sessions of preparation, Harris said. Hyde county farmers are planning to co-operate in the selling of wool sheared from their sheep.
