PAGE FOUR Cottonseed Meal Declared j Not Poisonous To Cattle ——♦ It is the lack of a nutritive essen tial, Vitamin A, rather than any pois onous substance which cottonseed meal may contain that produces the condition usually referred to as cot tonseed meal poisoning. This is the opinion of Or. J. O Halversoti, nutrition chemist of the North Carolina Experiment Station, after feeding tests with ten cows ex tending over 3.W days. The cows had. n grain ration f>f varying amounts of i ccttonseed meal and white corn, both; deficient in vitamin A. and a rough-1 ape ration of I>ect pulp, cottonseed Stills and alfalfa hay. During the time | the test was under way, the cowsj dropped 14 calves and produced good; qualities of milk. The calves were all normal though one nursing a dam j which was fed cottonseed meal as the. solt concentrate, developed blindness and spasms ending in death. The mother cow had swollen legs. As a result of the studies made by Jr. Halverson, he concludes that the more cottonseed meal fed, thf- more leafy hay is required in the ration.. Roughages such as alfalfa hay contain nutre.of the vitatjuji A in which cot tonseed meal, white corn and hulls ares ' deficient. I'astiira and grasses contain a considerable of vitamin A| and this supplements the deficiency in the meal. In order to teed cottonseed meal I i „successfully, concludes Dr. Halversoij,! , .an excellent leafy roughage in liberal quantity-is necessary. More meal than | ii now' fed may be used with milking crws if the roughage is of the fight quality and is fed in sufficient amount. I In addition to altalta hay. other leafy ( degume roughages such as soybean ( hay, cowpea hay ami tin clovers are ( excellent orn silage and corn Mov er are tair. Cottonseed hulls and beet pulp do not contain those substances v Itich supplement 'efficiency of cottonseed"ffieiil-and should be used in, ' limited aniounts w ith.Jhe leafy rnugh- . ages, he savs, ' J' ■ ' Korean and Kobe b sped/a. grown j, by -seven farmers in Iredell lounty,' I ha' been inspected for certification by a the North Carolina Crop Improvement M Association.

Edgecombe Farmers Buy Machine on Coop Plan • ! A serious hindrance to the growing i i of small grain generally' over Eastern 'Carolina has been the small acreage planted on each farm making it im , ; practicable for one man to own a bind er and thresher. "Eive farmers of Conetoe in Edge combe county have solved this prob lem very satisfactorily," says A. T. liolman, agricultural engineer at State College. "Each of these men wanted to grow from 15 to 40 acres of winter grains and so they decided to buy a| g« od threshing machine cooperatively. I Each man paid one-fifth of "the cost and each one uses the machine to thresh all of his grain. There is no limit to the acreage one, man may! thresh. The machine is kept in repair, by the individual on whose farm it is J located when the repairs are needed." ' The oat crop of the five owners is I e* used generally fur feed and seed while | the wheat is ground into flour for j home use. There has never been difficulty in using the thresher. There ! jis no contract and there are no of- j ' ficejrs. A gentleman's agreement gov ' ei ns the five members and the plan has made the live-at-home movement j e.'ay and practical on these farms. Mr. liolntan says this little group j represents the highest type of cooper ation anil shown - what - can be done working together for production as , well ;is marketing. ! WILLIAM' GREEN EXPLAINS COOP ORGANIZATION —♦ — (Continued from page one) others which 1 have not taken time to I catalog, there is little justification for i 'iOllljys taking the alt l udc that these | associations will follow in the foot- I steps of the old Tri-State.' The pres- I nit associations should be all the | stronger- because experiences with the i old Tri-State Association have taught the. of North Carolina true co j operative principles which will insure the success of wisely planned and sane-, ly operated organizations.

' - ■ ' « I THE ENTERPRISE Good Market Reported \ For Black Walnuts ——• Both the hulled and the black wal nut kernels or meats are in demand b> grocers, confectionery shops, or candy plants and the sale of the wal nuts may he mad© a regujar farm in come. "There arc many tarms in North Carolina having black walnut trees nuts of exceptional value each year," declares R. W, Graeber, extension forester at State College "Last year was a poor walnut year in most, sections of the State and it is possible that the drouth has inter fered with be crop this season; how ever, the crop prospect is worth im mediate investigation. Good black! walnuts are always in demand and j there are local markets available in ( nearly every town in the State." In preparing the nuts for market, they should be gathere as soon as they fall, the hulls removed and the ! nuts spread out to dry, says Mr. Grae j her. This keeps the kernels bright-col ored and sweet. An old corn sheller I may be used to remove the hulls rapidly and easily, if done v while the hulls are still green. Scrubbing in an old churn or similar receptacle will .polish the shells and make the nuts more attractive to the eye. . Mr. Graeber says that many farmers of his acquaintance have devclo|»ed a good trade direct with the consumer through the curb markets. Others sell by parcel post and still others sell di rectly to the candy stores. If any far \tyANTS FIFTY NICE SHOATS FOR SALE' Harrison Brothfcrs and .Co.

Careless Disposal of Offal Causes Parasites to Spread ♦ Careless disposal of offal from live stock slaughtered on the farm is one of the ways in which parasites arc spread, according to the Bureau of Animal Industry, U. S. Department of Agriculture, which says that offal should be tanked or treated in such a way as to kill all parasitic material. | Oflal is often thrown out and allowed ' to decompose in an offensive manner. 1 Dogs eat this material, and as parts ioi carcasses infested with tapeworm , cysts are rejected as offal, the dogs I become infested wijh tapeworms which i they in turn carry to live stock and in fest them with the bladderworms. Among the tapeworms spread in this way is the deadly hydatid which forms a cyst the size of an orange, or larg | er, in cattle, sheep, and swine, and in J 'man. Offal is also a prolific source ofj blowflies which breed in it in great ' numbers. After culling 395 inferior specimens i ficm nine poultry flocks of Burke county, the remaining 1,671 hens were bloodtested for producing hatching eggs this winter. • Thirteen Gaston County farmers visited the Coker Farms near Harts ville in South Carolina to study the varieties of cotton being grown.
