State College Answers Timely Farm Questions Q. When cows and calves gnaw at fence posts and rails, what is the reason ? A. This is a sign of mineral de ficiency in the ration. A sufficient quantity of calcium is usually con tained in legume hays such as cow pea, soybean, clover and alfalfa if these crops are grown on soil not deficient in lime. Where the grain ration contains 30 per cent of wheat bran, cottonseed meal and soybean meal, there is usually a sufficient amount of phosphorous. However, it will do no harm to allow the cows and calves free access to a mineral mixture com posed of one part salt and four parts of steamed bone meal. Q. How can corn weevils be con trolled? A. The first step, says J. O. RowelL extension entomologist, is to thoroughly clean the storage ! bin or crib and treat the wood- work with any odorless, tasteless. water-white petroleum similar to that used in commercial fly spray. Accumulation! of old grain and mi fill' for the British ooAoccjt- vox- floor sweepings from the previous crop should be removed and burn ed. However, " if the sweepings are needtd for feed, they may be sav ed with treatment by carbon di sulphide. The sweepings should be placed over them at the rate "of three-fourths of a pint to a bar rel of sweepings. Q. Is a pure-bred .sow necessary in swine production? A. If the production of slaughter hogs is the sole aim of the breed er, Ellis Vestal, extension swine specialist of State college, says the females selected do not have to be pure-breds. Even in this case, though, he says it will usually be advisable to select a few pure breds. Offsprings from these can be used to replace the less profit able sows in the herd; The boar should be a purebred registered animal. The .sow should come from a line of breeding that produces large litters. Purebreds for foun dation sows have the advantage of a known registry.

C counties designated as "modified accredited bang's . disease free areas" are : Burke, Cherokee, Clay, Macon, and McDowell. "All the dairy and breeding cat tle over six months of age in the 'accredited areas' have been tested under the bang's control program," Dr. William , Moore, chief of the department's veterinary division, explained. The cattle in counties receiving this distinction must' have not more , than one per cent bang's infection and herd infection not to exceed five per cent. All herds of cattle in which, bang's disease is known to exist have been quarantined. Accredited counties receive a further protec tion under the law which enables the department to prevent the shipment or movement of cattle into an accredited area without first having been tested." Dr. Moore said that "with nearly half of North Carolina's counties on the honor roll as bang's free areas, a distinct contribution has been made looking toward the building and protection of the state's great cattle industry." The bang's disease control and eradication program is a project conducted in cooperation with the United States bureau of animal in dustry before bang's testing work can be inaugurated in any county, the board of commissioners enters into an agreement to cooperate in the disease-eradication work. Diseased "animals are slaughter ed and their owners are paid in demnities not to exceed $50 for pure bred stock and $25 for grade animals. Money to pay for slaugh tered stock is furnished on a 50-50 basis by the state and federal gov ernments. , .
