What is a good number of chicks to start a semi-commercial Iultry flock? A. According to C. F. Parrish, extension poultryman at State col lege, the farmer can usually secure good profits if he starts a flock of 300 chicks. This number is about all that can be handled prop erly in addition to other farm work. However, Parrish warned that only quality chicks should be started. A few cents more paid for each chick at this time will be re turned many-fold in increased egg production. Q. When should I sow pasture land? A. North Carolina farmers are sowing pasture at the present time. since the best spring dates are from February 15. to April 1. Carpet grass, dallis grass, and les- pedeza should always be sown in the spring. They may be sown on top of other grasses and clov ers planted the previous fall.
