Blair, extei*ion 'agronomist of the Slat* College and Department of Agn culture, will hold a number pf meot ings during the month of Septembei to show the excellent effect secured by using lime and legumes in a combi nation to improve the fertility of the soil. Mr. Blair is conducting demon st rations w-ith lime in abou* nineteen counties of the State. The general plan of the work is to use lime or one acre of land, to grow a legume mi this soil, turn umler the leguine and note the resulting effect on the following crop. Good increases in crop yields have been secured fiom this practice, as shown by comparisons with a strip of land left unlimed it each demonstration. Demonstrations are made with farm ers under the direction of the county agents. Soybean-, eowpeas, velvet *• bean*, crimson eloper, red clover am Vetch are the legumes being used. Mr. Blair has found that lime is ver lieneficial to all of these legumes, hav ing nearly trebled thie yield of re»' clover hay in one instance. One err pf crirtk on clover turned under made an increase of 15 bushels of com pet acre, in addition to paying for itself with grazing. Fanners of the counties io whicl these demonstrations are to be he! should attend the meeting- to see tb« ,r effects of lime and legumes, advises Mr. Blair. The meetings will her the last week in August and continu' through September and parts of Oct" her and November. Mr. Blair stato that many fknnrp In North Caro lina have soils that need improvement, and a visit to one of !hese demonstra tions will prove both benefical and valuable. Some field meetings will be held during the same period to show how field selection of seed corn and cotton is conducted. I.ymnn Britt, Miss Elizabeth Has sell, Mrs. J. D.

DITCH BANKS ARE NESTS FOR THE BOLL WEEVIL Cotton Stalks Should Be Cut and Ditch Banks Cleared Many farmers are making great complaint of the bol weevi'. In some sections the insect may be found in great numbers. The crop is estimated by some at 50 per cent of a normal ciop, while others say 60 anil 70 per cent. One thing is settled, however, and that is that the July fruitage is all we will get. It is hard to find a 3 young boll in most fieUls. We wil 1 al J ways lie able to raw e cotton, even with J the boll weevil present, but we have* got to change our method of growing ! cotton, ami now is the time to begin. } Every cotton stalk should be cut just ] as soon as it is picked and all hclg. I should cleaned otT and burne-- •luring the winter, which wtil at least destroy lots of the insects. By o dome the farmer will have an even siart next year, then each farmer shouM study to find how others have over come the weevil ami grown fair crops even where the weevils wen* numerous The destruction of the cotton crop is too much to treat lightly. The weevil will cost Martin county this year mora han 5 years taxes, which there then- s sad so much about. Th too. is a tight that everybody u. interested in.— IJCENSES ISSUED DURING AUGUST Twice As Many Whites As There Were Colored A change in the rule of mamage licenses is noticed this mor,th.
