TRENCH SILOS
POPULAR WITH
DAIRY FARMERS
The digging and filling of 28
new trench silos in Stanly County
this summer and fall is a fair in
dication of the tremendous pop
larity of this economical method of
saving feed for winter use by
North Carolina dairymen.
"The 28 silos which we have dug
and filled this summer are distri
buted over every section of the coun
ty and is a new venture for the
men preparing them," says Oscar
H. Phillips, county farm agent.
"Each of the silos has an average
capacity of 27 tons and will feed
ten cows for six months at the rate
of 30 pounds of silage to each cow
a day. These 28 farmers and their
families are real pioneers in this
new endeavor because nftne of them
had ever seen silage before and
knew nothing about the construc
tion or filling of the silo."
Phillips says two of the silos were
built by 4-H club boys who pestered
their parents until they agreed to
have the containers dug.
The experience in Stanly County
is but a repetition of that occur
ring lrj other Piedmont counties.
John A. Arey, dairy extension spe
cialist, says that many of the farm
agents are reporting from 6 to 14
new silos per county and that these
hare all been filled with succulent
silage for feeding this winter.
Farmers with small herds are
finding that the silo in winter fol
lowed by pasture and legume hay
in early spring and summer is per
mitting them to produce milk and
cream more economically. The low
price for milk and cream is making
this low production cost almost im
perative if these herd owners are to
stay in business. Mr. Arey expects
a large increase In the number of
trench silos next summer as the
new owner find out how well the
silage will keep.
Lime And Legumes
For Vacant Land
While cotton and tobacco farmers
are aiding in the light to remove
the surplus of these crops by reduc
ing, their acreages drastically dur
ing the next two years, the oppor
tunity is offered to improve the
land so that it will never be neces
sary to plant such large acreages
sigain to obtain equally as good
yields.
This Is the opinion of Agricul
tural Extension workers at State
College who are urging a return
to the old clogan of "Lime, Legumes
uid livestock" this fall.
About 95 percent of the tobacco
growers have signed agreements
promising to reduce their acreage
by as much as 30 percent of that
planted during the past three years.
Cotton growers will Ue offered a
rental and benefit payment plan

ularly nice coats expected within the next

WlLBURN & SATTERFIELD
In the heart of towa la front of the ooarthooe.
by which the avreage must be re
duced by 40 percent under that of
the past five years. This means con
siderable land removed from the
cultivation of cash crops.
To make the best of this situation,
extension workers are urging an In
creased acreage to legume crops
this fall . The advantage of having
such crops on the land is well
known to most farmers but there is
this year the additional incentive
of producing seed for sale. Indica
tions are that there will be a short
age of all kinds of legume crop seed
and those in a position to grow
certified seed which may enter the
channels of interstate commerce
may secure an excellent profit from
the project.
?. The prevailing droughts of sum
mer also makes it imperative to
grow as much hay as possible dur
ing the winter when there is suffi
cient moisture in the soil.
Dean I. O. Schaub, director of the
Agricultural Extension Service, says
further that it is imperative to save
all the legume seed possible this
fall, especially of soybeans and
lespedeza.
Olive Hill P. T. A.
Gives Enjoyable Stew
Many thanks to the hospitality
committee of the Olive Hill P. T. A.
which was responsible for such a
delicious brunswick stew given Fri
day, October 20th.
Early Friday morning eight huge,
steaming pots could be seen hang
ing on a long pole over glowing
coals. Several mothers and fathers
were already busy preparing vege
tables and meat for the stew. All
through the day delicious odors
I drifted into the school rooms, which
made concentration on school books
j almost impossible. )q, t
How happy everyone was when
the 2:30 bell sounded. Spectators
were eagerly waiting to see the
two baseball games which were
scheduled for the early part of the
afternoon. The boys' game was well
played. The girls and boys on the
side lines added pep and enthusiasm
by giving many yells. After the boys'
game the girls of the sixth and
seventh grades exhibited, their fine
talent in playing baseball. Several
home runs were made by both teams.
After the games the call, "Soup's
on," was heard and eagerly respond^
ed to by all. We can truly sympa
thize with the old woman in the
shoe if she had as long a soup line
as we did. There were over t#o
hundred children and about (me '
hundred parents present. About 85
gallons of the stew was eaten, and
everyone had all he could eat. The
twenty gallons left was distributed
among those parents present.
The friendly contact and asso
ciations among children, parents
and teachers was a wholesome one.
We hope to hav? another occasion
as this before the school year Is
|over. It is truly worth while.

Sooty Carbon Does
Least Harm to Motor
Although most motorists are fa
miliar with carbon and in a gen
eral way appreciate the fact that
it has a deleterious effect on the
I operation of their motors, few per
! sons know that three different kinds
of carbon may be formed in a motor,
I depending on the oil used, and that
each type has a different effect on
the motor.
"Of all the different types the .
dry, sooty type, which does not ac
cumulate In large amounts and does
not affect detonation is the least
objectionable," Standard Oil Com- !
pany of New Jersey's engineers dis
covered in developing Kssolube. <
"The scaly, curly type, whose d e- ]
posits resemble large numbers of ,
tiny clam shells, causes preignition j
and knocking and leads to lost j
power and sluggish performance. <
The third type of carbon >ls the
coarse granular kind that resembles
i- ~ t , I.
black granulated sugar. This breaks
off and wedges between the pistons,
rings and cylinder walls and because
of its high abrasive quality causes
rapid wear.
Carbon need no longer worry the
careful motorist as it once did, these
lubrication experts point out in a
recent bulletin on motor oils. A
new method of refining, employing
the hydrogenatlon process, does
away with excess carbon in the
oil, thus increasing the lubricating
qualities of the oil Itself, while at
the same time assuring low oil
consumption and preventing loss of
power and undue wear of the motor.
Hurdle Mills P. T. A.
Meets on Wednesday
The P. T. A. of Hurdle Mil la high

Wednesday afternoon, October 20.
Mrs. H. D. Young's seventh

After the program the meeting
was called to order for a business
meeting by the president, Mr. H. D.
Young.
We received several new member^
at this meeting. The chairmen of
the different committees gave a *
summary of their duties. It was de
cided at this meeting to have a
brunswick stew at the school build
ing Friday, Nov. 3rd, sponsored by
the P. T. A. for the benefit of the
school. A rainy day schedule will
be observed on that day, getting out
of school at 2:30. At this time there
will be a basketball game. Stew
will be served during the afternoon.
If you can't come earlier, come and
have supper with us. After supper
about six o'clock the school will give
an hour's entertainment of songs,
ghost drills, readings and plays. A
special feature of entertainment
will be a black face comedy by
Messrs. Joe B. Currin, Dewey
Young and Hubert Gentry. We hope
to have the Roxboro choral club
present to entertain with some of
their negro spirituals. Come and
enjoy the game, program and eats.
We hope to be able to both enter
tain and feed you. Stew will again
be served after the program. Come
and bring your friends and help
our school. There will be no ad
mission fee. .
