Healthy Herd Is Essential To Profitable Dairying A healthy herd is essential to efficient, profitable dairy produc tion. But despite great strides made in control methods, disease organisms continue to cut produc tion and eat up the Qrofits in many dairy herds. T. C. Blalock, dairy specialist for the N. C. Agricultural Exten sion Service, says the worst "thieves" are chronic diseases that slip in unnoticed and slowly eat away a cow's ability to pro duce efficiently. Mr. Blalock says mastitis causes the largest losses. Acute mastitis is easily detected and readily de stroyed: therefore, it receives prompt treatment. But the chron ic form, caused by many differ ent organisms, is often not recog nized because few noticeable symptoms develop. Damage to the secretory tissue occurs, however, and changes take place more or less gradually in the udder, depending upon the virulence of the infection. Even tually the cow becomes useless, but long before that milk drops in production and quality, and the cow becomes an economic li Garden Time By M. E. GARDNER The question is frequently ask ed, "What do we mean when we speak of soil pH?" Simply stated, it refers to the relative acidity, sourness, or alkalinity, sweetness, of the soil. The pH of the soil affects the growth of all plants, and this is the reason Jlme is needed for some and not for others. If we apply a set of values to the pH range, from 4 to 10, we can state the ranges as follows: 4 to 5.5, strongly acid; 5.5 to 6.5, slightly acid; 6.5 to 7.5 neutral; and above 7.5 alkaline. It is common knowledge that the azalea and the camellia re quire acid soils with the azalea being more tolerant of acid con ditions than the camellia. Apply ing the scale already given, the azalea would fall in the range between 4.8 and 5.7 and the camellia between 5 and 6. This is getting a little technical, but it illustrates my point. Since the ranges are not signifl cantly different, both plans are usually grown in the same 'general area. On the other side of the picture we find that legumes, such as alfalfa and sweet clover, re quire a pH range of from 6.5 to 7.5. Spinach, often used as a test plant. 6.3 to 7.3; gardenia, the same as camellia; cabbage, 6 to 7; tomato. 5.3 to 6.3; Irish potato 5 to 5.7; sweet corn, 6.5 to 6.7 and so on down the line of plants Lime is used to sweeten soil.' and sulphur and aluminum sul fate to make them more acid However, you should never at tempt to amend your soils untl' you first have them tested. The test will* not only determine the pH but also organic matter and the essential available nutrient elements such as nitrogen, phos phorous, and potash. The 1958 peanut crop is ex pected to sell at slightly above support levels. A family milk cow can save a farm family close to 1200 a year on their milk bill. ability to her owner. A herd known to be Infected | with mastitis or other diseases should be treated promptly by a veterinarian, says Mr. Blalock. Sanitary management practices are essential for preventing and controlling disease. These include clean, dry bedding; control of flies, rats and other disease car riers. Milking machines should be , disinfected carefully, kept in good unning order and used accord ng to manufacturers' instruc ;ions to avoid injuries to the ud ier or introduction of disease ?erms. Daily use of the strip cup before each milking Is a must In an effective mastitis control pro tram. ? County agents and N. C. State College specialists can help a dairy farmer cut losses from dis ease by closing gaps in his sanita tion practices and improving his herd management program. Thest steps are outlined in Extension Circular 414, "Controlling Mas titis." available at county agents' offices. Jaunty Lamb Kabobs Give a lift to your first fall meals . . . serve broiled lamb kabobs. Meaty lamb chunks are alternated on the metal skewers with mushroom caps. To prepare, simply broil at ) moderate temperature and serve with French-fried potatoes. If menu monotony Is plaguing your home, your worries are over. Lamb and Mushroom Ka bobs will turn the head of the most discriminating gourmet for a second glance. This meal will undoubtedly be the talk of the household. Variations of kabobs are al most as many in number as there are homemakers. Reba Staggs, meat expert, sug gests that the cooking method can help to vary kabob cookery as well as the ingredients. In this case, the kabobs may be broiled or braised! To prepare this unusual meat treat, first procure metal skew ers 6 to 8 inches long. Allow 1 Irabob per person . . . Dad and the other men of the family might enjoy 2 or more. Then purchase boneless lamb shoulder cubes and fresh mush rooms or canned mushroom caps. If buying the fresh mushrooms, use just the mushroom cap. Then thread each skewer with a lamb cube, a mushroom cap, then a lamb cube, etc. until the skewer is filled. To broil, place the kabobs about 2 inches from the heat. Brush the mushrooms with melted butter or margarine and broil at ? moderate temperature for 8 to 10 minutes on each side. To braise, brown the kabobs slowly on all sides, add Vi to H cup of liquid, either water, to mato Juice or a fruit Juice, cover the pan and simmer slowly for 45 minutes. There's No ? Button For Thinking! RALEIGH? "The 1951 cars are J really automatic. They have every thing from push button windows to push button shifting. But there still isn't a button tq push that will do' your be hind-the- wheel I thinking for you." That was Joe W. Garrett's slate- ' ment. made to familiarise Tar Heel motorists with a "know your traffic laws" program conducted by the State Motor Vehicles De- ' partment. Mr. Garrett is assistant commissioner of the vehicles ' agency. "Every driver has to accept his responsibility for traffic safety," Mr. Garret^ said. "He has to know all the traffic rules and regu lations and follow them to the let ter." Some law abiding motorists will treat traffic laws casually and even ignore them when It becomes inconvenient to comply. Too many drivers leave their morality and common sense behind when they get behind the wheel of their car, he said. "Traffic laws simply cannot be treated lightly," Mr. Garrett ex plained. "The attitude that it's 'okay if I can get away with It' causes many accidents. Every iriver must be on the aid* at tew tanuce if we want to cut down >n North Carolina's shnfttw loath and Injury toll. He said the only solution to the >roblem to voluntary onmphancc >y drivers and pedestrians. The vehicles executive offered .he following rules for safe, and legal, driving: Know and obey all the traffic iaw?. Drive at a speed that la safe tor conditions. Never drive after drinking, and iont drink if you Intend to drive. When entering an Intersection, be prepared to yield the right of way if necessary to avoid cident. Never pass on a hill or Dr at an intersection. Don't hog the road ? stay i a your lane. Don't follow too closely. Allow plenty of room to stop. Read and heed traffic stgna and signals. Check your car for safety. Keep it in first class condition. Mr. Garrett urged every Tar Heel citizen to be his own police man by obeying' traffic laws volun tarily. By doing so, he said. 1958 will become the decisive year far traffic safety.
