State College Answers Timely Farm' Questions Q. What is the best ration for feeding pigs? A. There is no one best ration, for it is possible to increase the net returns from the herd by se lecting each season some combi nation of feeds that will make a well balanced, efficient ration at a- minimum cost. A more or -less standard ration that produces good results consists of corn, tankage or fish meal, and a mineral mix ture. However, substitutes that are more economical can be . made for flome of the ingredients. The amount and kind of substitutes are given in Extension Grcular No. 238, "Raising Hogs in North Caro lina" and coo'ies of this circular may be bad free upon application to the Agricultural tditor at State college. . Q. Is it tqp early to plant garden crops in the open ? A. Spring plantings in the open depend primarily on the tempera ture requirements of the different crops. The hardy crops such as cabbage, kale, mustard, lettuce, nafwlev. soinach. onions, and the smooth-seeded garden peas will stand hard frosts and may be planted in the open six to eight wtrka before danoer of killing frost is over. Crops classed as half-hardy such as asparagus, beets, celerv. turnips, radishes, chard, cauliflower, and Irish potatoes will stand light freezes, but usually should not be planted until three or four weeks before the date of the last killing frost All warm season crops should not be planted until all danger of frost is past. Q. When should broilers be started on a fattening feed? A. Broilers are usually started on the fattening ration about seven to 10 days before they are to be sold. The birds should be approximately one and one-half to one and three-quarters pounds each when fattening begins. All other feed should be discontinued and a nrial ration civen for the feed ing period. However, this period should never extend more than 12 davs. There are two' recom mended rations for the fattening period. The first contains six pounds of corn meai and tour nmunda of flour, standard middlings. or ground oats. The second ration mi X- swung ttz pound oi pii Battle Cold Weather corn meal, two pounds of wheat shorts, and two pounds of ground oats. Skim milk or buttermilk should be used in , either of these rations to mix a sloppy feed that will pour readily from a bucket. New Disease Attacks Irish Potato Tubers Here's a warning to North Car olina Irish potato growers from Howard K. Garriss. assistant ex tension plant pathologist of State college: A new bacterial wilt disease, called "Bacterial King Rot," has attacked Urish 'potatoes in . 26 states, and disastrous losses have been suffered in several areas. The disease is spread through seed po tatoes ; therefore, Tar Heel grow ers should be careful where they buy seed potatoes, and should take definite steps . to control the dis ease when it is , found. The disease attacks the tubers, causing a grayish to brownish dis coloration of the vascular ring, which is' quite often followed, by soft rot with a final loss of 'the whole tuber. Symptoms in the field are best detected 80 to 90 days after planting, or just before the tops begin to die. A rather sudden wilting of the tops take place with final browning and drying. . To prevent spread of the disease, Garriss recommends that the knife being used to cut the potatoes be sterilized frequently by-dipping for a few seconds iii a germicide dis infectant solution, or be dropped into hoiling water for a short time. Experiments have shown that if you cut through a potato with ring rot, the next ten and sometimes more healthy potatoes cut with the same knife will become in fected. "If possible, get seed from a locality that ig free from the rot," the extension specialist advised. 'We, here at State college, will be glad to furnish the latest available information on disease-free sources. It is wise to buy from a state with a good certification system, and to buy with a flat money back guarantee that the seed po tatoes are not infected with ring rot. If you think the disease is present, treat the seed pieces by dipping them into a solution of Semesan-Ltel or Mercural (pre pared according to manufacturer's directions), and dry before plant ing." . CHEAP By using mortar coloring and used motor oil, Scott Ashe of Whittier in Swain county was able to paint his barn for $1-35, reports Farm Agent H. R.

Lesson for February 18 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. GOOD CITIZENS AND GOOD NEIGHBORS LESSON TEXT Matthew 22:15-22, 34 40. GOLDEN TEXT Thou Shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Matthew 22:39. Character is determined by what a' man is In his heart, not by the profession of his lips. This is emi nently true in spiritual matters, for we know that it Is not by much testifying, hymn singing, or even by church attendance : that a man proves himself to be a Christian. The question is, Is his heart right with God? It is also true in his relation to his country. Patriotism is not a matter of speech-making and flag-waving, but an inward de votion to the good of the nation. Most assuredly it is also true that being a good neighbor is not some thing accomplished by smooth talk or the shedding of a few tears; it is a matter of that right attitude toward our neighbor, whether he be the man next door or in China, which results in a sacrificial effort to serve and help him. 1 " I. A Right Attitude Toward God (vv, 21, 37-39). No man will make any real prog ress in the direction of being either a good citizen or a good neighbor until he has a right attitude toward God. , The questions which were asked of our Lord, and which brought forth such precious teaching from Him, were not asked in good will nor with a desire to glorify . God, but rather to entrap or snare the Lord and. thus give occasion for denounc ing Him. Had the Pharisees, Sad ducees, and Herodians (the ritual- Ictc . tViA rntinnalicta nnrf nnliHoinne of our Lord's day) really known GoaT? ' and Jesus Christ, His Son, their problems of patriotism and neigh borliness would have been solved in the light of His Word and, what is perhaps even more important, in His spirit - Is not the crying need of our world today, gone mad as it has with mis directed and perverted patriotic fer vor and forgetting all responsibili ties of good neighborllness, that it should hear and heed the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ? II. A Right Attitude toward Gov ernment (w. 15-22). The subtle hypocrisy of, the ques tion in verse 17 lay in the fact that these leaders were not interested in knowing the truth, but only wanted to make Jesus out either to be dis loyal to His own people because He advocated paying tribute, or a traitor to Caesar because He ad vised rebellion against taxation. They coated their clever bait with unctuous flattery, a device which is still common among those who would mislead God's people. Ob serve that even though they did not believe what they said, they did speak the truth about the Lord Jesus (v. 16). His answer is complete, final, and unanswerable. He has that kind of an answer to every honest ques tion of man. In this case He clearly states that one who lives under an established government, enjoying its protection, using its money in trade, and so forth, is to be loyal to every proper obligation to that govern ment. God and the things of God must come first, but a right atti tude toward God will reveal itself in a proper attitude toward govern ment , Why does not some nation realize that the answer to destructive polit ical and social theories is win the destructive agitator to a living faith in Christ and he will become your strongest force for God and coun try. The real answer to commu nism (and every other anti-Americanism) is Christ in. A Right Attitude Toward Our Neighbor (W. 34-40). We have talked a good deal of late about being good neighbors, and certainly everyone should do every thing possible to encourage the good neighbor policy in his own commu nity and throughout the earth. But why does not the good neighbor pol icy work? Read the parallel pas-, sage in Luke and you will see how man tries to dodge his responsibil ity. See Luke 10: 29 and observe the answer of Jesus in Luke 10: 30-37. A good neighbor is not one who is seeking some kind of "You favor me and I'll favor you" arrangement He does not see the barriers of race, creed, or color. He is ready to help anyone, anywhere, at any cost It is recognized that only the man who loves God with all his heart will be able thus to love his neighbor as himself. The world does not so much need treatises on neighbor liness as the winning of men and women to faith lq the Lord Jesus Christ and thus to a whole-hearted love for God which will inevitably express itself in a love for his neighbor. When this comes b pass, we shall have true neighborliness in the world. Let us send the gospel to all na tions, that they may become first of all good Christians, then good cit izens, sad good neighbors. Tourist Trade Valued At $100,000,000 To North Carolina The tourist business is worth nearly $100.000,(XX) per year to North Carolina, John C. Baskcrville, ex ecutive secretary of the Governor's Huspitality committee, told the Asheville Civitan club at a lunch eon meeting a( the George Van derbilt hotel recently. Motorists alone spent some $64, 000,000 in the state during 1938, Mr. Uaskcrville said the United States department of the interior estimated, an increase of nearly 100 per cent over the amount spent the previous year. ' '1lf ail the persons ' traveling .in North Carolina during ,1039 hail spent juist one day in or near Asheville, spending $5 per (lay each, it would mean an expenditure of nearly a million and a quarter dollars per month", the speaker said. The swift jump in the value to the state of the tourist business, Mr. Baskervill said, was due m part to the state', advertising pro gram, which he reviewed briefly, praising the advertising committee of the. state board of. conservation and development. On the basis of figures supplied by the United States -department of commerce anil the department of the- interior, the speaker esti mated merchants were paid $25,000, 000 by tourists; cafes and restau rants got $21,000,000; ""hotels, tourist homes and tourist camps got $20, 000,000, as did filling stations, bus lines, garages and railroads. The remainder went for entertainment and refreshment, he said. Field Army To Give Facts About Cancer No subject is surrounded with greater confusion, more ignorance and fear than cancer. Terror that may have been justified in 1900 is today as out of date as the spinning wheel. Women have played a splendid role in combatting tuberculosis, and in charity and public health drives. Now in this fight to re place fear and ignorance about cancer, with courageous alertness and positive action, women have another opportunity for fine serv ice. The Women's Field Army is reaching into every ity, town, and village in the country, helping to spread good hews about cancer control. Mrs. J. E. Perry, of Franklin, is captain of the Field Army unit in Macon county. Through talks to be given by qualified, speakers, i and literature to be distributed throughout the county, Mrs. Perry and her committee will bring -to attention important facts and val uable information on cancer. Learn all you can about cancer, one of the greatest menaces of life, and thus protect yourself and your family. According to club reports, 4-H Club boys of Cherokee county are displaying more interest in live stock and poultry projects this year than they did last year. More than a million farms are now included in 'soil conservation districts organized during the past two years by farmers, with 400,000 more expected to come in shortly.
