Extension specialists of State col
lege recommend the following ap
proved practices as, suggestions for
farm work during the month of
March: ,
Agronomy
If you haven't finished sowing
common, - Tennessee 76, or Kobe
lespedeza. then get the job done
right at. the beginning .of March,
advises Enos C. Blair, State col
lege extension agronomist. Broad
casting require 35 or 40 pounds of
seed to the acre, while 25 pounds is
required if they are put in with a
grain drill. Red clover and sweet
clover also should be seeded this
month.
Swina
If you have not already provided
a portable farrowing house for your
swine, H. W. Taylor, extension
swine specialist, suggests that you
ask your county agent for a copy
of blueprint No. 160. Use the plans
WITH SELECTIVE

economical and practical food pro

On the Farm 1
to build a farrowing house before
the spring farrow of pigs arrives.
Sows and pigs do better if plenty
of green grazing is furnished, and
it is, not too late to prepare for
green feed on a field, where no
hogs have ranged since it was last
cultivated.
Dairy Cattla
The grazing of old pastures which
have thin sods can be improved
materially by giving them a top
dressing early in March of about
300 pounds per acre of a 4-8-4 fer
tilizer on sandy soil or the same
amount of 4-12-4 on clay soils. This
suggestion comes from Extension
Dairyman John Arey. He also says
that thin places in the sod should
be reseeded at the same time. Jf
the soil is firm, it is advisable to
scarify it with a disc harrow and
then drill the fertilizer and grass
seed in with a disc drill. If the
soil is loose, the harrowing may be

omitted, since ' the disc drill will
place the ' fertilizer and seed suf
ficiently deep.
Certified Seed
A. D. Stuart, seed specialist and
secretary of the N. C. Crop Im
provement Association, throws in a
good word for quality seed this
month.: He says: "Farmers .should
use the best quality of planting seed
available. If seed, are to .come from
Stocks grown on the farm, they
should be cleaned, graded, and
treated before planting."
SmaU Grain
Tar Heel farmers seeded an un
usual acreage of small grain last
fall, says W. H. Rankin, agronom
ist in soil fertility at State college.
If it is apparent that these crops
need additional nitrogen, then this
should be applied as a top dressing
during March or when early growth
starts. Don't wait until small grain
is in the boot or the heads . are
showing.
Poultry
To the poultryman, March is the
starting of the spring season, says
Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the
State college poultry department.
Layers have peaked or are reaching
peak production. Some early hatch
ed chickv for broilers are already
under the brooder, and everything
should be in readiness for brooding
work. Five important suggestions
are: (1) Watch layers carefully and
start feeding a wet mash as soon
as. a slump in egg production ap
pears; (2) continue culling layers
as outstanding culls develop; (3)
don't overcrowd the baby chicks;
(4) start only quality chicks ; . (5)
when weather is good, allow the
chicks out-of-doors for a while each
day.
