In times of stress the behav.

balanced mind, exercises a
soothing, comforting in
fluence on others laboring
under strong emotions.
The funeral director's poise,
born of his understanding of
the needs of bereaved fami

and relief. His unobtrusive

of responsibility strengthens
and fortifies them..

Swaffer Says Home
Tanning Is Simple
Equipment needed for home tan
ning can be found or made on any
farm, and the whole process is
very simple and inexpensive, says
C. Dalton Swaffer, assistant profes
sor of th,e State college animal
husbandry department.
Durable leather for making har
ness, harness repairs, belt and boot
lacing, or beautiful and very ser
viceable rugs for the floor can b.e
provided, during spare time, at very
little expense, he stated. Large
heavy hides are best suited for sole,
harness or belting leather, while
lighter hides weighing from 15 to
40 pounds are-better for lace leath
er and rugs.
After the hide or pelt is removed
from the animal it should be placed
flesh side up on a fleshing beam
and thoroughly scraped - to re
move all meat particles and blood.
Plain cold water and a brush or
broom, should be used to clean off
dirt and other such foreign matter,
but a solution of one package of
washing powders, and one gallon of
warm water is valuable in remov
ing blood or stains.
If the hide is to be cured, if
should first be cooled - from six to
12 hours. Next . spread the hide,
flesh side up, on a clean floor that
has been sprinkled with salt. Then
cover with a layer of salt and rub
in well. Use plenty- of salt as it is
impossible to use too much, but
easily possible to use too little. A
number of hides can be cured in
one pile and curing will be com
plete in from one, to two weeks
One may proceed with tanning a
green or fresh hide. as. soon as it
is properly fleshed and washed, but
a cured hide that is dry and stiff
must first be soaked in clear water
to make it soft and pliable. It
should then be placed on a flesh
ing beam and thoroughly scraped
with a "slicker" to remove salt and
water. Then it can be treated with
the tanning solution as though it
were a green hide.

of 30 Years Ago
should have elapsed since the le
gume was produced and prior to
this it should have been grown for
at least two years on the field. In
collecting the soil, remove the top
inch or two and then take the re
maining soil to a depth of not
more than eight inches. If the sun
is bright, the sacked soil should
be well covered until it can be put
in a cool, shady place. From one
to three bushels of soil should be
collected for each acre to be in
oculated. Q. When should eggs be candled
after they are placed in the incu
bator? A. The eggs should be candled
on the seventh day and all dead
germs and infertiles removed. This
should be done in a dark room or
at night to prevent further spoil
age. A fertile . egg will appear to
contain a spider the germ repre
senting the body Tjf-'the spider
while the blood vessels represent
the spider legs. An infertile egg
will be clear with the yolk slight
ly visible.
Q. What fertilizer is best for
early sweet potatoes? "
A. When po'tatoes are grown for
the early market on sandy soils, a
mixture of - 3 per cent nitrogen, -8
per cent phosphoric acid, and 8
per cent potash applied at the rate
of 1,000 to 1,200 pounds an acre is
recommended. Where more than
this amount is used, one-half should
be applied before planting and
one-half soon after the plants are
well rooted. For the late harvest
of Porto Rico and Nancy Hall
sweets when grown on stand loam
soils in the Coastal Plain section,
an application of 600 to 800 pounds
of 3-8-8 mixture is. recommended.
Aerial Photos Offer
Accurate Farm Record ,
With the advent of the agricul
tural adjustment act, and the need
for accurate field measurement to
check compliance with the soil con
servation program, aerial photog
raphy came into its own as a
cheap, quick, indisputable method of
land mapping.
E, Y. Floyd, AAA executive of
ficer at State college, says these
aerial photograph are proving val
uable to farmers in planning the
lay-out of their fields. Others
frame them to hang on the wall.
Accurate field measurement is im
portant under the AAA because
conservation payments are made at
a specified rate per acre of land
planted. Prior to the use of air
photography, a number of methods,
ranging from the old measuring
wheel to surveying, were used.
"Cost of checking performance
from the air is about one-third less
than the earlier methods of land
measurement," Floyd reported. "Air
photography costs about 4 cents
per acre as compared with (5 cents
pel acre under older measuring
methods. The cost is included as
part of the administrative expense
deducted from payments to farm
ers." Photographs constitute a perma
nent record and need not be re
taken unless boundaries are great
ly altered. Minor changes can be
drawn in ort the print. Enlarged to
a specified scale, the prints serve
as a map as well as a picture. En
largement brings into focus the out
lines of such landmarks as fences,
highways, streams, buildings, wood
lands and trees.
In order to get pictures at a pre
scribed scale, they are made at a
specified altitude of nearly three
miles. The exact acreage of each
farm and field can . then be de
termined from the print which is
enlarged to scale.
Roses Planted Now
Escape Stem Canker
Many gardeners in North Caro
lina prefer to plant their roses dur
ing the fall months. This is a good
practice in Western North Carolina.
But a rose plant set in the fall in
Eastern North Carolina is subject
to the attack of stem canker, which
may cause considerable damage,
advises J. G. Weaver, State college
horticulturist. If the plant is set
during February and early March
it starts growth before the stem
canker causes much injury, he
explained.
Weaver gives some general , ad
vice on growing roses : Before
planting, all rose plants .should be
gone over with a pair of pruning
shears. Remove all weak growth
from the tops and leave only the
large vigorous cajies. These should
be cut back to a length of six to
eight inches above the place where
the plant was budded. From the
roots cut all bruised, broken, split,
or injured sections.
Before planting, the soil should
have a liberal application of ma
nure and bone meal, worked into
the beds to a depth of 12 to IS
inches. In planting, dig the hole
large enough to accomodate the
roots without cramping. Usually a
hole 18 inches in diameter and
eight to 10 inches deep is sufficient.
Place the plant in the hole so
that the bud union will be slightly
below the surface of the ground
after the planting operation is com
plete. Spread the roots naturally
and firm some soil well around
them. Water this immediately to
settle the soil around the roots,
then mound soil up around the
plants to protect the stems from
the drying March winds. As soon
as growth starts this soil should be
pulled away to leave the beds per
fectly level.
