BANQUET HELD
AT FARM LIFE
LAST THURSDAY
Faculty Members, Students
And Few Invited Guests
Enjoy Affair
?
An enjoyable event was. held in tht
Farm Life school last Thursday eve
ning when faculty members, pupils,
and a few invited guests met there for;
their annual junior-senior banquet. Up
to the minute in every detail, the af
fair was declared the most successful
so far held there.
| Aside from an appetizing dinner,
| consisting of several court*, the stu
dents had arranged a very entertain
ing program. They sang together,'
played together, and incidentally
thought together of the great breadth;
of the work and the many roads lead
ing into the future. Evan though la-'
cated in a strictly agricultural com-'
munity, only two of the pupils ex
pressed their wishes to become farm
ers. the others choosing flying. danc-|
ing, nursing, teaching, music, and one
or two other vocations. Only four
want to marry (so they say), making
a very, very unusual record of desires.
But their whims were offered in'fun,
and no doubt will change in time. ?

ALL HOG RAISERS
ELIGIBLE TO SIGN
1934-35 CONTRACT
I
Previous Ruling Barring
Certain Producers Is
Modified
All hog producers, regardless of
their past hog production, now are
eligible for hog reduction payments
under a new ruling on the 1934-35 re
duction corjtract, it was announced by
\V. VV. Shay, swine extension special
ist at State College.
A previous AAA ruling specified
that if the 1932-33 hog litter averageJ
was les> than three, the contracting
producer was not required to reduce
hog production in 1934, and in any
event was not eligible to receive afiy
hog reduction payments.
Under the new ruling, Shay says all
producers will be entitled to reduction
payments of $5 per head on a number
rrf hogs equal to 75 per cent of their j
past average of market hog produc
tion, provided their litter average and
production of hogs for market is re
duced not less than 25 per cent. In
cases where the litter average iS*less
than four, this means that the con
tracting producer will have to reduce
4>y onf litter in order to comply with'
the contract, even though this will,
constitute more than a 25 per cent re
duction from the litter average. j
The change, in ruling was made in
consideration of an unexpected inter-J
est in the corn-hog program among
small hog farmers. These farmers!
will now have an opportunity to share'
in the proceeds of the processing tax!
being collected on the slaughtering of
all hogs for market, regardless of by j
whom sold. *
FERTILIZERSFOR
USE IN GARDENS
Stable Manure Best, But
Other Kinds May Be
Successfully Used
-*>
Stable manure is one of the best
forrtts of fertilizer for garden crops.
It furnishes plant nutrients in a reas
onably balanced form, and it helps
to keep the soil in good condition by
furnishing organic matter. On soils
"of aveiagc fcrtrfrry:?nianuie should
be a|iplied broadcast at the rat?..of 10
two-horse wagonloads per acre. For
best results, it should be applied in
fall and winter. If applied near plant
j mg time, manure should l^e in a well
rotted condition, and should be thor
oughly mixed with the soil.
Poultry manure is also an excel
lent garden fertilizer, but because of
| its concentrated nature it must be
j used with caution. For general gar
I den purposes, 3 or 4 tons per acre is
j sufficient. If applied near planting
time, poultry manure should he in s
thoroughly rotted condtion.
If manure is not available, then it
will be necessary to use chemical
fertilizers. For general .garden use,
the mixture should contain ammonia,
phosphoric acid and potash in a well
balanced formula. Standard 5-7-6 oi
5-8-6 formulas are generally satisfac
tory for garden purposes. On soils
of average fertility complete fertil
isers may be used safely at the rat.
of a ton per acre if applied broadcast.
If appbed in the furrow, the applica
tion should not be greater than 1,004
or 1,200 pounds per acre.
In addition to the complete fertil
'?r, side dressings of readily avail
able nitrogen fertilizers are tlsuall
advisable, especially for leafy vege
tables such as cabbage, collards, let
school m this county and one of fev
anywhere having three brothers t.
complete the course of study at III
same time. The three sons of Mi
and Mrs. C'h.rl, M Peel are in lin
for graduation within the next fev
?weeks.

THREE times a day, 1095 times a
year, many women tread their
stairs to have a little hot water for
household cleaning and for bathing.
Such climbing and attention is the
constant demand of an old-fashioned
water heater.
Why should YOU toil and moil for
a little hot water when you can have
plenty at the turn of the faucet?
An automatic electric Water Heat
er will provide you with plentiful gal
lons of it instantly, any time of the
day or night?automatically.
It will end needless stair climbing
and all the time you spend in waiting
for hot water. It will add joy to bath
ing, shampoos, shaving, and every
household cleaning task.
Yet, the original cost and the op
erating cost will be a pleasant surprise.
Decide now to stop being a slave to
an old-fashioned water heater. Ask
us, or y6ur dealer, for full details re
garding hot water by wire.
