A six-mouths comparison . shows that 5) traffic fatalities occurred in the state the first half of this year,; compared with 57 for the same six months of last year. All types of fatal - accidents combined took 333 lives in the-state the first six months of this year, against 396 for the same six months of 1939. Thus, while total fatalities fatalities, decreased approximately 12 per cent, child fatalities de creased less than 2 per cent. A significant feature of the sum mary was the . revelation that 37 of the persons under 15 wlio were killed the first six months of this, year were pedestrians. This was 66 per cent of -the total, whereas only 35 per cent 'of the totjil traffic fatalities for the period were pedes trians. Some encouragement was gather ed from the fact that only 37 child pedestrians were killed in the state the first half of this year,- against 44 for the first six months of 1939, and only four bicycilists under the age of 15 were killed the first half of this year, against 8 in the same period last year. ; Urging North Carolina parents to impress their children with the importance of safe practices and the dangers of wrong practices in their walking, playing, skating, and cycling, Safety Director Hocutt de clared: 1 "It is better that children learn the lessons of safety through teaching, not through experience."

Clerk and Tax Collector tor Town of State College Answers Timely Farm Questions Q. What is the most economical and satisfactory ration for swine? A. There is no one best ration for it is possible to increase the net returns by selecting carefully each season the particular combi nation of feeds that will make a well balanced, efficient ration at the minimum cost. A more or less j standard ration that produces good results consists of corn, tankage or fish meal, and a mineral - mixture. This ration can often be made more economical by substituting a cheaper source of protein supple ment for part of the tankage. Barley or wheat, when cheap enough, can also replace corn and 10 -per cent of finely ground, bright green leafy legume hay added to the protein supplement will improve the ration if there is a vitamin "A" deficiency. Q. What causes the milk from my cow to separate into three parts after it is churned the clab ber at the bottom, the water in the middle, and the cream oh top with not much butter at all?. A. Such difficulty in, handling milk often happens in extremely hot weather. It is usually no fault of the cow or her feed. If you will place the milk immediately after milking in the coldest water available and keep the milk and cream by changing the water oc casionally, it should help to remedy this trouble. It is best not to place it in a refrigeratoT or' ice box until after cooling the milk in water. It is also important to give the milk utensils an extra good scalding, using baking soda in the hot water, to kill bacteria in' warm weather. Q. How can J "save" my hay if it happens to rain on it while in the field? A. If rain falls on freshly cut hay, there will be little damage, provided good curing weather fol lows. Half-cured or well-cured hay will be discolored, but will not mold if rain comes before it is raked up. The greatest damage is done to hay in the windrow, or in loose irregular piles. Such hay should be spread out as sewn as the weather will permit Well cocked bay will stand considerable the pullet's diet: The growing mash helps to build a good egg factory. Corn puts weight on the bird and lays on a reserve of fat for the heavy lay ing period. Oats furnish fiber, and help build resistance against di sease, feather-picking, and prol lapses. Green feed furnishes suc culence, minerals and vitamins, and is rich in other essential food fac tors. ' A liberal supply of green feed cuts feed bills and aids in grow ing a more healthy pullet, While green feed is more important dur ing the growing state, it does have a definite place in the . bird's diet after laying starts. For late summer grazing and green feed, sowed young green corn may be used to good advan tage, along with Sudan grass, wheat, oats, barley, soybeans, and alfalfa; If ample grazing has not already been provided, a green feed crop should be planted now. Because egg prices generally rise sharply in August, many poultry producers ruin their pullets by rushing them with laying mash, Parrish said. The best plan is to let the pullets mature normally on growing mash, corn, oats, and green feed. Before the birds are changed to laying mash, they should have reached at least 20 per cent production. rain; but should it be wet through, spread it out. Q. Will a good crop rotation completely control Granville wilt ? A.While crop rotations will not control Granville wilt completely, they are the best known methods of combatting the disease now known. The degree of control is dependent upon the crops used, the length of the rotation, and seasonal conditions during the year the field is returned to tobacco. In the ro tations, corn has given the best control, followed closely by soy-, beans, herds grass, and cotton. Best results will be secured if weeds are kept out of the rotations. Q. When may I plant alfalfa? A. Alfalfa, which produces one of the best' of all hays, should be planted between August 15 and September 15. It is particularly adauted to the heavy red clays or other soils in a high state of fer tility or well-drained. Jn the Moun tain section, it should persist at least five to eight years. Alfalfa should be seeded at the rate of 25 pounds to the acre. Q. How much variety should there be in the dairy cow's ration ? A. A ration composed of a suc culent feed, legume hay, and at least three different concentrate feeds usually contains sufficient variety for the cow producing a medium flow of filk. At least two more concentrate feeds would be needed for the heavy-producing cow. Variety in the rajion adds to its palatebility anO insures against a shortage in the supply of mineral matter and the differ ent forma of proteins.
