Sale Begins Sat., Oct. 3rd WAREHOUSEMEN OFOLDBELTARE ASKED TO CLOSE Virginia Farmers Thus Pro test Against Low Prices Now Prevailing * Danville, Va.-, Sept. 30.—Warehouse men of Danvill were today asked to ! close their auction centers from Oc- I tobcr 2 to October 19 at a meeting of i landowners and farmers held in a the- ! ater at Chatham. It was a protest bs"j the growers to prevailing prices paid for their leaf, at the opening date of the selling season yesterday, notwithstand ing a price average of 7.37 cents per j pound and one considered by many elements of the trade as proportion ate with the values offered. I The Chatham meeting was attended j !by about 175 farmers and was presid- j ed over by J. K Stone, county agent. I i The resolutions brought in "by a com-1 mittee of representative farmers also I called on the growers to keep their tobacco in the barn and prged contig uous tobacco countii?i|Mo take concur rent action. This was done in the hope that the world's financial situation might have a chance to resolve itself. Next Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock another meeting will be held at ( hat ham, when, according to Stone, "a . MJM.ISHKD IVORY TUESDAY AMD FRIDAY —— l '" , , > GIVES FACTS AS TO FATTENING OF LIVE STOCK v • Baby Beef Calves Should Be Fed Grain When 4 to 6 Weeks Old By GUY A. CARDWELL Agricultural and Industrial Agent, At lantic Coast Line Railroad Co. When calces arc intended for baby beef they should be started on some (grain when from 4 to6 weeks old. A 'mjxtur of equal parts, by weight, of j shelled corn, whole oats, and wheat I bran is satisfactory." The corn and {oats may be fed ground until the j calves become Bccustomed to eating. | Whole corn and oats are less likely to cause scours. The grain allowance j should be increased gradually up to j weaning time. Then keep spring calves on full feed all winter and fin- I ish them early in the spring to avoid i the heat and flies. Fall calves should ; be weaned after they have been placed ;on pasture in the spring. A gradually j , more definite program'' will be out lined."" , No Marked Effect Seen The Chatham action had no marked effect here,, the view being that the , closing of the warehouses Could not relieve the situation complained o(, Which is conceded to he beyond rcme- | 'dy.by mass action of the growers. It was considered doubtful if the ware houses would close, because there are , farmers who still .desjre an outlet for j the product despite-low prices. De liveries were practically at a stand-| still today. About 300,000 pounds of leaf was carried over from yesterday,, but very few. additional loads came in. Higflfyr quality leaf sold better than yesterday, but the common showed lit-, lie change, the expectation being that the official average would be around $K per KM) pounds. The voice of the responsible trade rose in anger today over local publicity given the market and the chronicling of wide. spread complaint among the growers. Steps were taken at a called meeting of the tobacco association to disseminate more affable material for public con sumption in the.prints of the surround ing area Many of the nmwers here, however, continued to be wrought Up •over 1 wluy they claim, are Inflow pro duction .prices fey an unusually good crop. _ •', ------ j NOTICE 11 a v'vngs ffttirttfiH ay executor under the hist will and tcstairtetit of W.

This the Ist day of October, 1931, THOMAS EVERETT, I THE ENTERPRISE I | increasing allowance of grain should be 'given them, with hay and filage added ! later in the summer. They may be ' marketed at the end of the pasture 1 season, or put into a dry lot for fin ishing and marketing in December or ■January. j~ | Whenever possible, calves should be 'fattened on corn with legume hay, vel vet beans, peanut meal, soy bean meal or linseed meal to furnish protein in stead of cottonseed meal. ■. Fattening Steer* I To obtain the most satisfactory re sults, cattle should be Raised on the farm where they are fattened. How- Cyer, it is often necessary,-to buy feed ers if the farm is small, the pasture too limited," or the land too high in price to raise them. By purchasing feeds, such as cottonseed meal, to supple ment home-grown roughages and fat tening steers, the productivity of the land may be built up faster than by keeping a breeding herd. Cattle feeders should study the de mands of the market for certain sea-! sons feed the kind of cattle that will be in demand when fliey are ready for market. In some seasons certain weights and classes ofcattle may be purchased more economically than others. Ordinarily, it is preferable to buy the cattle in early fall, as compe tion between packers and feeders usu allylncrease as winter approaches. Cat tle intended for fattening on grass the following summer should be purchased in the fall if there is plenty of cheap roughage on hatld. Oftentimes feed ers can be bought in the country, eith e rlocally or in producing sections. Hogs Following Cattle j Cattle that are being fattened usu- ! ally receive so large proportion of con centrates that considerable feed is ; voided in the manure, especially when , corn .or velvet beans are fed. Old cat tle pass more undigested feed into the , manure than young cattle. Also the waste feed is considerably greater j when whole grain is used than when the grain is ground. Ordinarily one pig, weighing 70 to 80 pounds to each ; . three steers will be required. Two-; year-old steers on full feed, if shelled 1 corn, should have one pig each. When supplemental feed is given the pigs, a ! few more pigs may just as well be added. If only enough hogs are kept to follow the settle in the feed lot, the cattle pastures need not be fenced hog tight, as a much smaller area devoted to good pasture and properly fenced will furnish sufficient hog pasture for this part of the enterprise. | Charging that his wife hit him in j the face with a pet cat during a quar rel, J.

X ' WILLIAMSTON NOWTH eAWOt-'WA i WARN HUNTERS 5 OF DANGER IN : FOREST FIRES r m District Forester Asks Co operation in Preserving \ Cover for Game The early opening of the squirrel and deer hunting season, together with the hot, dry weather of the past few ,' weeks, has created a fire hazard that menaces the timber and wild life .'wealth of our State, and every hunter ( is urged to do his bit to prevent forest , fires while in l}»e woods, states L. A. i Carter, of Windsor, district forester. , 1 Records of the Department of Con servation and Development show that , over 90 per cent of the forest fires in , North Carolina are due to carelessness , and of these about one-third are due .' to careless hunters and smokers. ,! The hunter who carelessly throws down a match without making sure it . is out, or who discards burning cig arettes, cigars, or knocks hot ashes from his pipe without regard to where lie throws them or without putting , them out, is endangering the very sport in which he is engaged. The hunter who builds a fire to warm himself or his food without first re moving all inflammable material from the area in wiuch*.lie builds his fire, or who leaves such a fire without fully extinguishing it, takes the chance of burning to destruction the game and cover and has violated the laws of his! State. I It is a recognized fact that every forest fire takes its toll of game birds and animals, that many that are not burned to death in the fire suffer burns that lead to their death and others are I so weakened that they become impo tent and are unable to reproduce. I i It is also recognized that north eastern North Carolina has about the best hunting in the State.
