THURSDAY, JULY 13, 1939 Dairy Animals Should 1 Be Fitted For Fairs You can't expect to drive a dairy animal up from the pasture a few days before the county, sec tional, or state fair and win in competition with other animals properly fitted, says Fred M. Haig, professor of animal husbandry and dairying at State college. He knows because he has been judging live- stock at fairs for the past 20 years. "First of all, you must select the animals to, be shown at least 10 to 12 weeks before the show," he advises. "The animals must 'be taught to lead and stand properly; i there is little chance of winning if you have to pull the Cow or talf around tltc ring. "In fitting dairy animals, you should also consider what you are going to feed to get the best re ; suits. All competent judges dis criminate against, animals that are too fat. On the other hand, they must carry enough flesh to present a smooth, sleek appearance. A good grain mixture consists of equaJ parts of ground corn, ground oats; wheat, bran, and linseed oil meal. The amount of this mixture to feed each animal depends on the age and condition of the animal. "It is also necessary to keep the animals blanketed during the en tire fitting period. Blanketing in duces sweating, hastens shedding, keeps the hide clean, and makes the .. hair lie smoothly . Several times a day you should remove, the blanket and brush the animal all over with a soft-bristled brush. Al ways brush the hair in the direc tion in which it grows." Finally, 1'rof. Haig said that it is .a distinct advantage for an ani mal to have a well balanced set of horns properly manicured. "If the horn's are out of shape in young animals, they may be corrected by use of horn 'trainers." State College Answers Timely Farm Questions Q. Is there any fertilizer value to tobacco stalks ? A. Green tobacco stalks when plowed under carry a cer.tain amount of plant food, but the great est benefit from plowing under the stalks comes from the destruction of insect pests. The suckers that grow on stalks left standing furn ish a breeding place for millions of these pests which will attack the crop next season. Immediately after 'the harvest all stalks should be cut or plowed under. In this way the insects will be destroyed Loyal Order of Moose Franklin Lodge, No. 452 Meets In American Legion Hall Second and Fourth Thursday Nights 8:00 O'CLOCK ( Billy Bryson, Secretary CAN YOU AFFORD TO BE WITHOUT IT Funeral Benefit Insurance Costs Are Surprisingly Small Rates From 2y2c Month Up According To Age ' Benefits are Provided in the Amount of $100 for Persons Over 10 Years of Age and in the Amount of $50 for Per sons Under 10 Years of Age.

No Fascist Salute fit i Even though his Belgian wife, Princess Marie Jose, snaps out the stiff-armed Fascist salute during ceremonies in Nuoro, Italy, Crown Prince Umberto who has had several tiffs with the Black Shirts seems to prefer the pre-Fascism military salute. The ceremonies were held In honor of cadets who fell In the recent Spanish civil war. and the available plant food put back . into the soil. Q. When should , lespedea lie cut for hay? . A. This crop should be cut when it reaches a height of IS inches or when it is hi full bloom, which ever occurs first. For the Korean variety the average dates for cut ting is from August 1 to Septem ber,!, and from August IS to Oc tober 1 for the other varieties. To delay harvest will usually injure the quality through loss of the lower leaves. However, if July and Aug ust are dry and September wet, it will pay to delay mowing the Common, Tennessee 76, and Kobe varieties as the main growth of these will take place in the latter month. Q. Is -there any way of telling how long a hen has been in molt? A. The way in which a hen molts her primary wing feathers may be used as a measure in esti mating how long the molt has been in progress. The inner primary feathers are usually dropped as soon as 'the bird stops laying. A new quill then starts which takes about six weeks to become full grown. To estimate the time of beginning of molt allow six weeks for the first full grown feather and two weeks for each additional feather grown to full size. In late moltcrs two or more primary fea thers may be dropped at the same time , and these must be counted as one in estimating ' the time of molt. . Begin Fall Garden . By Planting In July Except in the' extreme eastern part of North Carolina, fall gard ens should be planted during July, advises H. R, Niswonger and L. P. Watson, horticulturists of the State college extension service. "The fall garden is too often neglected on many farms, and it should be re membered that the vegetables that can be grown on an acre of land would cost the farm housewife from $400 to $500 if bought at re tail prices," they said. It is too late to safely plant anything except beets, Kohl-Kabi, turnips, snap beans, leaf lettuce, mustard and spinach in the moun tain counties ' which adjoin Ten nessee. These vegetables and bush lima beans, carrots, sweet corn and tomato and celery plants may be planted during July in Piedmont and the rest of Western North Carolina. Kale and seeds of early cabbage and head lettuce should not be planted west of Anson, Moore, Lee, Wake, Nash, Halifax,- and North ampton counties after July 15. Irish potatoes and seeds of cabbage, col lards and tomatoes may be plant ed safely now only in the coastal counties. "The time to plant the fall gard en depends upon the hardiness of the different vegetables and upon the time required for maturity," the horticulturists explained. '.'Tend er vegetables must be planted in time to produce a crop before killing frosts occur. Many of the cool-season crops will grow and mature through light frosts." It was explained that the first killing frost usually occurs in the far western counties about October 15, in the Piedmont about October 25,, in the Coastal Plain about No vember 10, and in the Tidewater section about December 1, GOOD RESULTS E. P. Scholtz, of the Steele Creek community in Mecklenburg county, secured such good results from an experimental seeding of crimson clover last fall that he intends to make this an annual practice. ACCURACY Moore county growers generally are agreed that the aerial photo graphs of their farms form the best means of measuring accurately their participation in the 1939 AAA program.
