CARD OP THANKS We desire to thank our friends and neighbor* for the sympatfly expressed, and for the beautiful floral tributes for our son, Warren Thomas Summ^rlin. A. J. SUMMERLIN v AND FAMILY. PLANT CROP FOR SPRING GRAZING Cows will easily ruin a good pas ture if turned on it too early in the spring while the soil is soaked with moisture. Early spring grass lacks desirable nutritive qualities and us ually the barns are emptied of the best legume hay by early March. "Therefore,"' says John A. Arey, dairy extension specialist at State College, "the wue thing to do is to make provision this fall for a supply of early grazing next spring. When a cow has passed the winter largely on dry feed, she craves appetizing, succulent feed such as may be got from a good temporary pasture. Such grazing is appetizing, is nutritious and is one of the most economical feeds that any dairyman can provide. By providing temporary grazing for the month of March and for as much of April as will be needed, the cows may be kept off tliep ermanent pasture until the grass has made good growth and the soil is to dry that the sod will not be ruiped by trampling." Mr. Arey finds that the supply of home-grown roughage is about ex hausted on March first, especially on those farm* where only a few ows are kept for cream production. These cows are therefore turned on the pas ture when the hay gives out regardless of the condition of the soil or the growth of the grasses. This usually results in damage to the pasture and little good to te cows. A good forage crop mixture to plant thii fall consists of one-half bushel of Abruczi rye; one-half bushel of beardless wheat; one bushel of Nor ton oats; one bushel of beardless barley, and ten pounds of crimson clover or 15 pounds of hairy vetch. This amount will plant one acre. For early spring grazing the seeding should be done by middle September. In some cases, grazing may be done in late fall, Mr. Arey says. HONEY CROP IS GOOD THIS YEAR A record honey crop was produced by beekeeper* of North Carolina this , year. Nector-produing plants in all parts of the State yielded abundantly and both professional and amateur beekeepers report excellent harvests. j "While we have tons of honey for home use and for sale this season, not every year is so favorable for bee keeping," warns C. L. Sams, exten sion specialist in beekeeping at State College, who asks growers to get their colonies in shape for the coming winter. "The amount of honey we shall'produce next season will depend on the condition in which the colonies are left this fall. It will not pay to harvest the honey too closely. Some food must be left for brood rearing land for carrying the bees through the i winter. Success in honey production lies in carrying the colonies through j the winter in a vigorous condition so that they will be strong and thriving with a large force of worker bees and 1 a healthy queen at the beginning of i the honey flow next spring." I Mr. Sams suggests that every col ony owner examine his hives this fall. Brood rearing must be encouraged before killing frost because the older bees will die in winter and therefore will be of little further use to the coloney after this harvest. Anything that interferes with* brood rearing during September and October will result in thfe colonies entering the winter in pbor condition. If new queens are needed, now is the proper time to add young ones. Old queens do not lay we|l in the fall and colonics with these old queens are apt to go into winter quarters with a small cluster of old bees. Such colonies may die out or become too weak for them to gather strength in time for the spring flow. It is also important to leave sufficient food stores to carry the colony thru the cold weather. HOW ONE "KEP* OFF THE CROSS" "A North Carolin ; an, on a business trip in I'owatan county, Virginia, ran across an '■old, negro farmer who had an unusually large store of canned food in his home. 'lts what kep* nie off o' the cross," said the negro. Asking what was meant by the term, the visitor learned that drought had forced most other negroes in the neighborhood to""look to the Red Cross for food in the lat ter part of 1 «->3O. This one had plenty of his own, though able to produce little. "J long ago learned that the good Lord sometimes sends drought and flood," the negro told him. "So I al ways puts up food for two years a head." He was putting up enough this year to last him through all 1932 and a> least a part of 1933.
