State College Hints
To Farm Homemakera
By VKK.NA STANTON
Assistant State Agent
For three years, the Bureau of
Human Nutrition and Home Ec
onomics of the U. S. Depart- j
njent of Agriculture has been i
making an intensive scientific !
study of home canning low-acid j
vegetables and meats. Given be
low in recipe form are the bu
reau's new directions for home
canning asparagus and green
peas.
The research scientists stress
the necessity of using a steam
pressure canner for low-acid
loods, since this is the only
practical method to guard
against boiulinus ? serious, food
poisoning? from these canned
products. They also stress im
portance of following directions
completely, sincc these process
times may not be adequate for
food prepared and packed by
some other methqd.
Asparagus: Wash asparagus;
trim off scales and tough ends
and wash again. Cut into 1-inch
pieces Cover with boiling water.
Boil 2 or three minutes. Pack
hot asparagus to 1 .. inch of top
of glass jars Cover with hot
cooking liquid; or, if liquid con
tains grit, use boiling water.
Leave inch space at top ot
jar. Add teaspoon salt to
pints; 1 teaspoon to quarts.
Adjust jar lids. Process in pres
sure canner at 10 pounds pres
sure (240 degrees F i ? pint Jars,
25 minutes; quart jars, 55 min
utes. As soon as jars are re
moved from canner, complete
seals if not the self-sealing
type.
Green Peas: Shell and wash
peas. Cover with boiling water.
Bring to boil. Pack hot peas to
1 inch of top of glass jars.
Cover with boiling water, leav
ing 1 inch space at top of jar.
Add teaspoon salt to pints; 1
teaspoon to jquarts. Adjust jar
lids. Process in pressure canner
at 10 pounds pressure (240 de
grees F.i in either pint or quart
jars, 40 minutes. As soon as jars
ure removed from canner, com
plete seals if not the self-seal
ing type.
For control of aphis and thrips
on roses, nicotine sulfate is rec
ommended for the aphis, and
50 per cent wettable DDT for
the thrips.
KEEPING CULLS
IS EXPENSIVE
Poultrymen Should Make
It Spring Practice
To Cull Birds
North Carolina poultrymen
are losing several million dol
lars each year in the form of
feed bills by keeping culls in
their laying flocks, according to
Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the
poultry department at State
college.
"Culling of laying birds in
the spring is, or should be, a
routine procedure of the prac
tical poultryman," Mr. Dear
styne said; "however, this is not
carried out in all instances on
as strict a basis as it should be
done, and considerable loss re
sults."
A laying bird will consume
about nine pounds of feed a
month, .which, if figured at four
and one-half cents a pound,
would amount to somewhat over
forty cents a bird. With feed
representing about 60 per cent
of the cost of production, the
poultryman can easily figure
how many eggs a chicken must
lay to pay the cost of maintain
ing it.
Some birds are going out of
production in all flocks during
the month of May, and whether
in the business on a large or
on a small scale, it will pay the
poultryman to follow through
on this matter of culling, he
| said.
State College Answers
Timely Farm Questions
Q. When should I place my
pullets on range?
A. Roy S. Dearstyne, head of
the poultry department at State
college, says it is well to get de
veloping pullets on range as
soon as possible after they are
10 weeks of age. Before the birds
are moved, they should be in
dividually handled and all culls
removed. It is not going to pay i
especially with feed prices as
high as they are, to attempt to
carry sub-normal pullets ahead
this year, because they seldom
straighten out and become prof
itable birds. By providing a good
range for the pullets, the feed
bill may be reduced from 10 to

Q. How can I control root
knot in garden vegetables?
A Howard K. Garriss, plant
pathologist for the State col
lege extension service, says the
garden should be located in a
different site each year, if con
venient; if not, plantings should
be rotated in the garden. Plant
ings of warm-weather or sum
mer vegetables on infested parts
of the garden should be avoided
Sweet corn, early plantings of
lettuce, radish, onions, peas,
spinach, and cabbage may be
grown in infested soil with con
siderable success.
When buying plants for trans
planting, get them from produc
ers known to have clean soil,
and do not plant infested Irish
or sweet potato seed.
