DANVILLE, VA POWER FARMING SHOWN AT DAVIDSON MEETING Raleigh N. C-, April —The valae of power farming by im proved machinery was demon strated at 3, meeting held recently on the farm of Woodson McKay three miles out from Lexington on the Winston road. About 225 farmers of Davidson county at tended the meeting which was sponsored by County Agent C. A. Sheffield and attended by A T. Holman, agricultural engineer for the extension service at State College According to Mr. Holman, the meeting was held for the purpose of demonstrating the value of stump blasting, terrace building %nd"fh^"ose of improved machin ery bn the farm. In preparation for the terracing demonstration 4,200 feet of terraces were staked out in five terraces and each ter race told a distinct story. One was staked but not plowed; the second had the staRys standing with the first furrow plowed; the third showed the first plowing completed; the fourth was about; half finished showing the second plowing started and the fifth and last showed the completed Man gum terrace 20 feet wide with the cfown 20 inches higher than the water furrow, Using these terraces, as a demon stratioh. the work on each one was carried to fuH completion showing how a good Mangum ter race is made with power farm machinery and soi! erosion there by controMed. The farmers at j tending heard some exce!!ent ta!ks on the use of farm machinery from W. T. Ha!), manager of the farm. hoHow'ing this morning session, a barbecue dinner was served by Mr. McKay after which the use of pyroto! in removing stumps was demonstrated. Mr. Holman b)ew out five stumps of an average dia meter of f8 inches with six pounds of pyroto! and at an average cost of seven cents per stump. County Agent. She(He!d stated at the meeting that soi! erosion atid stump remova! are two main problems before the farmers of Davidson county. The county used'30.000 pounds of pyroto! this season in stump removai and more attention now is being given to content of soi) erosion by terrac i"g START THE GARDEN ADVISES MORROW Raleigh. N. C.April —April brings good gardening weather and it is important now to keep in mind some of the essentials of successful gardening. Of first importance is the art of careful planning. In this, nothing helps more than to have in mind some general vegetable classifications. "A classification that is general t !y useful is based upon climatic requirements and includes two broad groups, namely, coot-season and warm season crops." says K. R' Morrow, extension horticultur ist at State College. "Among the more commonly grown vege tables, lettuce, spinach, radishes, turnips, garden peas, cabbage, cauliflower. Brussels sprouts, celery, beets, carrots, parsnips, t chard. New Zealand spinach, parsley, onions, and Irish potatoes are classed as cool-season crops. Of these, the last eight will with stand summer heat. The others must have the cool weather of , spring or fall for their best growth. "The principal warm season garden crops are snap and lima beans, sweet corn, cantaloupes, watermelons, cucumbers, squash, tomatoes, eggplant, peppers and sweet potatoes. These crops re quire the heat of summer for their best development." Mr. Morrow states that those who wish to enter the state wide garden contest shoutd enroU with the county home agent at once. Each county having as many as twenty-Ave entrants is eiigibte for one of the State prizes, in addi tion to the State prizes, many counties are offering attractive prizes to individual having the! best gardens g,. FARM WORK ANIMALS DESERVE ATTENTION Rateigh, N. C., Aprit 14—The cost of keeping ope farm work animat for one year on the farm amounts to 3:39.28 according to tests made by the North Carolina Experiment Station. Hatf the value of the State's cotton crop is heeded to maintain the work ani mats on farms. It is important, therefore, that farmers find how to decrease the cost of main tenance or increase the efficiency of the work animals. Prof. R. S. Curtis, of the animat husbandry department at State Cotlege. states that the supply of work stock is not meeting the needs and the condition is becom ing mfte acute each year. To in crease the efficiency of those ani mats now on the farms, every farm should have a pasture or paddock where the animats may run at nights, on Sundays and during idie seasons. Exercise and recrea tion are thus afforded. More home grown roughages are need ed which witt decrease the cost of maintenance. From one-half to -birds of the cost of shipped hay is in freight charges. "Better rations tor our work animats are also needed." says !'; turns. "A good suggested grain ration can be made of nine parts of corn and one part of cot tonseed meat, or 6ve parts of corn and five part# of oats, or seven [.arts ..f corn, two parts of oats and one part of cottonseed meat. These rations fed at the rate of pounds of the grain to each too pounds of tive weight witt be suitabte during the heavy work periods. , ' "Our animats atso .need fegutar attention. The t)est ptan is to feed three times daily and give water and satt rcgutarty. It i# detri menta) to the animats to attow them to stand in box statts over heafed manure beds day after day. The animats shoutd aiso be wett groomed which wit! aid in heatth and vigor. The harness needs to be wet! fitted, and the feet tooked after more regutarty." VALUE OF TRAINING "Kvery time you make a boy a trained worker," a prominent hanker remarked, "take him out of the unskilled class and put him into the skilled class, you more than double his earning and pro ducing power. For that reason," he said, "the money we put into education is the best investment on earth." We are spending, more money on our penal institutions than we are spending on education. We are faced, too, with the appalling fact that nearly threesfourths of those confined in the penal institu tions of our country are under twenty one years of age, young people who should just be starting out ott their life careers; and we must not forget that "the finest prison conceivable is only a monu ment to neglected youth."— Selected.

Wat kins. Blanch, a member of the Old Belt organization committee for Caswell, presiding. ft was indicated that the move ment found general favor among the farmers present and it was agreed that a committee of three be nam<-d to receive and record contracts. This committee was thus constituted: E. A. Allison, chat;man: W. L. Xeal, secretary, and W. L. Miles. Hie major part ot ttie meeting was taken up in the discussion of the campaign in the Old Belt to secure a sign-up of the farmers. it is understood that it is the intention of the organization com mittee to wage an active and busi ness-like campaign to inform the farmers of the necessity of the organization and at the same time feel the pulse of the tobacco grow ers as to whether or not they may desire to sell their tobacco in the co-operative way.
