THURSDAY, OCTOBER M, 1937
October 31 Last Day To
Comply With Soil Program
Don't forget that October 31 is
the last date on which soil-buiM-
ing payments can be earned under
the 1937 agricultural conservation
program, warns E. Y. Floyd, of
State college.
Farmers who have not yet earn-
ed the tun amount or tncir sou
building allowance still have time
to earn payments by seeding Winter
cover cropV turning under legume.-,
and carrying out other, practice
prescribed by the program.
In checking growers', compliance,
Floyd said, it has' been found thai,
a number of fanners have not
met all requirements for growing
soil-conserving crops to qualify for
d: "-sinn payments.
Winter cover crops such as
crimson clover, Austrian winter
peas, and vetch may be sown in
Ocioocr to earn soil-building pay
ments and to help qualify a grow
er ,for his diversion payment, Floyd
added.
Payments offered under the pro
'pTTn for soil-building practices
will largely off-set the cost of do
ing these things to improve and
.conserve the soil, he continued.
County farm agents have notified
growers of the acreage of conserv
ing crops they still need to qualify
for diversion payments and of the
amount of soil-building practices
needed to earn the full amount of
their soil-building allowance.

LARGEST CIRCUS

Spectacle. One of Host of

Organization.

The world's mightiest amusement
enterprise on tour the Ringling
Bros, and Barnum & Bailey com
bined circus with its 1937 seven-ring-and-stage
program, star stud
ded and liberally interspersed with
new thrillers from Europe and
Asia, featuring among its array of
new wonders the most gorgeous in
troductory . spectacle in its brilliant
history,' India, is definitely schedul
ed to exhibit in Asheville, Sunday,
October 24.
India is not just another circus
spectacle. .It is ' not merely a glit
tering parade to open the Big
Show performances. It is the result
of a year's planning, a really stag
gering expenditure and much re
search on the- part of Sam W.
Gumpertz, general manager of The
Greatest Show, on Earth. Costly
fabrics were purchased in car load
lots. Color schemes, blend in love
ly perspectives. Every one of the
two thousand people and animals
taking part wears a small fortune
on its back. All have towering
headdresses of exquisite beauty.'
One group of 170 horses, with girl
riders, is like nothing ever before
offered, for the horses, wearing
medieval bejeweled blankets of vel
vet, carry gorgeous canopies over
the girls heads. India is a torrent
of color and flashing jewels, flow
ing over the hippodrome .track and
the seven rings and stages. It is
the last word in pageantry.

eign features are The Great Aloys,

Herbs Give Zest To
Many Winter Dishes
Spring is in the kitchen all wint
er for thftse fortunate people who
have an herb garden in a window
box or even in a few flower pots.
Basil, chives, summer savory,
sweet majoran, thyme, and parsley
are a few of the herbs that can be
grown through the winter, said
Cornelia C. Morris, extension mark
eting specialist at State college.
These herbs, she added, will add

zest to many a winter dish. Pars
ley, for example, can be used fresh
or dried and its flavor combines
well with egg, meat, and vegetable
dishes. j
The clove-flavored leaves and
flowers of basil and the young
tender leaves of chives lend a deli
cate flavor to soups, stews, and
salads. Summer' savory,' often called
European mint, is popular for meat

Herbs grown in a window box
do best, in a south window where
they can get plenty of sunlight.
They should ' be planted " in good
soil. A good soil consists of one
part well rotted cow manure " and
three parts gQod garden loam.
The ideal ; soil has as .its founda
tion well rotted sods. Add the rot--ted
manure., some sand, and a very
small quantity of bone meal.. Mix
this, soil . thoroughly and . screen
out any lumps that may be in it.
A window box should be at least
eight inches deep. A layer of small,
broken stones over the bottom will
facilitate drainage. One or two
holes in the bottom will permit
surplus water to drain out. . .
