LENOIR NEWS-TOPIC. THURSDAY, Page Seven - HOME AND FARM DEPARTMENT By D. W. Roberts, County Agent provide for the feed trade as well. The course on hay and forage will be devoted exclusively to the many crops that may be profitably grown for hay and forage in the State and to the comparative advantages of these different crops not only as feeds, but as crops that will fit in and strengthen the different farming types of the State. The prime ob ject of the course will be to show how an abundance of high quality hay and forage may be cheaply pro The work in horticulture will be Milk Utensils Should Be Kept Clean Milk utensils should always tbe kept clean. The beat results are secured when they are first washed in cold or lukewarm water and then with hot water.

No textbooks are to be employed, the instruction given to be in tne form of expert advice and demon stration with actual materials. One bit of advice in advance to those who take this course is to be on hand at the first period with a notebook and pencil, and not stop using them until the course is end ed. The men who are to give this course are thoroughly in earnest in their desire to give you the informa tion, and you should be just as ear nest in your desire to secure the in formation they can give you. Along with the above, there will be a course in plant diseases and their control, which is designed to teach farmers attending the short course how to recognize the more destruc tive diseases when they appear and to give them the latest and best methods of control. Such important diseases as the black rot of the grape, cotton anthracnose (boll rot) and root rot will be among those studied. All the time assigned to the plant disease department in the short course will be spent on diseases af- The Short Course in Agriculture In the three weeks' short course in agriculture, beginning today at the State College of Agriculture, in the farm crops courses specimens of field crop plants an dseeds will be studied. Staple crops, such as corn, cotton, tobacco an dsmall grains will ba first briefly taken up. Their culture, in cluding the mest rotations, will be discussed. Fitted into good rotations are many accessory crops which help to complete the rotation, distribute labor, furnish feed and pasturage and improve the soil. The selection, the adaptation and the management of these minor crops for the different types of farming over the State will have chief consideration in the course in accessory crops. Many tons of feed are annually shipped into North Carolina. This practice should no longer be fol lowed. There are sufficient crops adapted to our climate, soil and cor rect types of farming to produce plenty of hay and other forage, not i fecting North Carolina crops only to supply iarm animais, dui to NEGROES' ACTION AT RALEIGH MAY PUT SOUTH ON GUARD Southern members of Congress doubtless will take renewed and deeper interest in the Moses resolu tion, now pending before the Senate judiciary committee, because -of the action taken by negroes assembled at Raleigh Jan. 1 for emancipation day cleberation, says Theodore Tiller, Washington correspondent of the Greensboro Daily News. While the two things are bu tindirectly related the connection is sufficient to put Southern members of Congress more on their guard, and soon after Con gress reassembles it is known that a determined effort will be made to kill the resolution in committee and avoid sectional and racial complica tions. The Moses resolution seeks to bring about a special investigation by Congress of election laws ad practices in the South. The investi gators would be directed to report to Congress whether Federal legislation is required to safeguard the voting rights of any class of citizens of the United States. Resolutions adopted by the ne groes of North Carolina at Raleigh declare, among other things, for a more effective use of the ballot, say ing: "To this end we urge that the press and leaders of the race insist in season and out of season that our people qualitfy to vote, and to use the ballot as one of the most effective instruments in the service of the country and in the fight against in justice and discrimination in democracy." It is possible the Raleigh mass meeting of negroes resolved without any thought whatsoever of the Moses resolution, but it will not be denied that such proposals as that of the New Hampshire Senator may en courage the Southern negro to at tempt to branch out politically. Before Congress took its holiday recess Senators from the South were looking with decided disfavor upon the Moses resolution. Senator Over man, for instance, regarded it as a trouble-maker and said the question it raised was adjusting itself to the South and Republican agitation could only cause friction in Congress and out of it.

POPULARITY OF SWEET POTATO IS SPREADING The sweet potato's popularity is spreading, says H. E. C. Bryant in the Charlotte Observer. Increased attention is being given to it by Fed eral officials. Not many years ago it was discovered by some of the Pullman car chefs to have unexcelled qualities for food. Recently chem ists of the department of agriculture who were hunting substitutes for su gar found the sweet potato would furnish an excellent sweetening. "Sweet pot- tees," one of them said, "desc" '- as careful handling as apples. In f . t, they will not stand the rough handling that apples are often subjected to in grading andj packing. One of the chief barrier" to the extension of sweet potato growing in this country is the ina bility of farmers to keep sweet pota toes in storage so that they can ibe placed on the market in winter when prices are. good. Consequently most of the crop grown in the South is consumed locally or sold at digging time when prices are low. A few sweet potatoes go to northern mar kets in winter, and even in the, South they cannot be obtained with any degree of certainty at that season." Trie specialists believe by proper handling sweet potatoes can be han dled more nearly through the year. First of all, it is urged that ways be followed to ,eliminate diseases such as black rot, stem rot and root rot. C. & N.-W.
