Why is alalfa called the "King of the Hay Crops"? A. It produces more hay per acre than any other crop. It vlU produce 3 to 4.5 tons of high quality hay per acre each year for several years on many soils in North Carolina. It is a deep rooted perennial legume. It is rather exacting In its require ments for good growth; therefore if you are planning to seed alfalfa you must do the job right or you will be disappointed. Q. Is tall fescue (Kentucky 31 or Alta) a recommended lawn grass for North Carolina? A. Yes. Tall fescue comes nearer giving a year 'round green lawn grass than any other grass. Growth is checked during the hot summer months, but during the fall, winter and spring it is vigor ous and cold resistant. You do not have to seed it every year. It makes a coarse textured lawn and spreads very little, growing in tufts: this can be overcome largely by seeding heavily. If cut close and frequently fescue will thin out rapidly. Set the mower at about three inches. Closer clipping at frequent intervals will kill it. SHOW BEGINS I Weekdays ? 7 & 9 p. m. | Saturdays ? Continuous from 1:00 p. m. | Sundays ? 2:30 and 9 p. m.

The Inspector said two rooms downstairs in the jail, present ly not used for detention pur poses, should be fixed up to ac commodate women and juvenile prisoners (when the juvenile is jailed on a felony charge). One of the rooms already has a concrete floor but the other would have to have one poured. Iron bars would be installed and toilet facilities put In both rooms. Presently, one of the rooms Is used by the jailor's family and another Is used as a jail storeroom. No action was taken by the commissioners. However, If the workmen now finishing the jail addition don't have to go to an other job, Mr Baldwin said they might be hired to renovate the two rooms.
