In the fall or siting any time the outside temperature is 50 or 60 degrees or higher, according to R. R. Bennett, tobacco specialist for the State College Extension Service. Bennett says that the methyl bromide gas treatment, when properly applied, has proved effec tive in controlling grass and weeds in tobacco plant beds. It also helps control nematodes. In 1950, demonstrations with methyl bromide were conducted in plant bed soils in 32 tobacco GARDEN TIME What Fertilizer is Best? Most vegetable crops, and espe cially the , leafy vegetables, re quire heavy fertilization in order to induce rapid growth which is necessary for high table quality. Nobody wants to eat tough, stringy vegetables and it should not be necessary. Garden soils should contain enough organic matter to make them porous and easy to work and to retain moisture. In the farm garden this is usually supplied by applications of stable manure. If Theo. Davis Sons, Publishers Farm Agent Urges Full Safety Check On Farm Buildings In the winter time, most farm chores center around barns. This is why Grady Miller, Wake Coun ty farm agent for the State Col lege Extension Service, suggests that you take time to weed out barn hazards before an accident occurs. Go over the barn with a critical eye for hazards and inconvenien ces. Some of them may have re mained unnoticed for years. Check your barn for loose ob jects or things that may cause falls. High door sills, abrupt changes in floor levels, weak boards, protruding cleats or oth er tripping hazards should be re moved. All floors should be solid, smooth and continuous. Do some house cleaning and set things in order if the alleyways or work areas are obstructed with feed, tools, harness, feed carts or other obstacles. Don’t work in the dark, see that dangerous corners and work centers are well lighted. Avoid storing loose materials over head and see that folks or other barn equipment are kept in safe places. Hay mow doors, feed chutes and ladders need special attention. A well constructed stairway that is hand-railed and kept clean pro vides the safest and easiest passage to hay mows. It Is dangerous to use stairwells as feed chutes because loose hay or straw makes footing uncertain. Separate feed chutes with guards above the loft level are desirable. Piano Recital Miss Roberta Deenis of the Wakelon School faculty will give a piano recital in the Wakelon Au ditorium on Wednesday night, Feb ruary 11, at 8: 00 p. m. counties in North Carolina. Prior to that time, the treatment had been tested by the North Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station, and 24 demonstrations were con ducted in 10 counties in 1949. Results prove that the treat ment is “very effective,â€~ accord ing to Bennett. Methyl bromide gas penetrates the soil best when the soil is not too wet, Bennett points out. An air-tight cover of plastic or tough kraft paper can be bought in suita ble widths for the purpose of con fining the gas in the plant bed. For details on using the gas, see your local county agent. stable manure is unavailable, or ganic matter may be supplied by turning under green crops such as rye, clover, soybeans or straw or sawdust. Whatever material is used to supply the organic mat ter it should be given plenty of time to decompose before the gar den crops are planted. Even stable manure which is a good fertilizer as well as an organic material should be applied long enough in advance so that the straw or oth (Continued on Page 3)
