TAKE GOOD CARE COTTON SEED AT TIME OF PICKING Better Seed Are Obtained When Taken for the Second Picking The best cotton seed for planting is usually secured from the second picking. Tlte first picking Is often green and heavy with moisture, while the last pickings are frequently light and damaged toy bail weevils. However, good seed may be se eured from the Ant picking If there has been no rein on It, (aid P. H. Kime, plant breeder for the Agricultural Experiment Station at State College. After the cotton is picked, it should be stored in a well ventilat ed house and spread out to dry as much as possible, he said. Damp cotton left in a large pile usually | develops enough heat to impair the germinating power of the seed. Cotton from which the seed is to be saved for planting should be held until after the rush of the gin ning tea son, Kime added, so that the ginner will have more time to To keep the seed from getting clean up the gin. mixed with other varieties at the gin, the seed roll should be drop ped, the gin and conveyor pipes cleaned, the floor swept, and the seed caught on the floor and bag ged. Do not tot trio seed pass through the conveyor, Kime warned, as it is almost impossible to clean the conveyor of all seed left from ptevious ginnings If the quality of the seed is good this year, be continued, it is advis able to save enough for two or three years. Next year's crop may be bad ly weather damaged, but good seed held over for several years, will not deteriorate if stored properly. In fact, Kime pointed out, disease organisms often are found on the1 seed will die in about two years,1 leaving the seed fairly free from di-l ?ease after it has been stored for at| least two seasons.

Feed Unmarketable Cull Sweet Potatoes Dairy Cows on Farm Tubers and Vines Produce Milk and Butter Of High Quality Unmarketable iweet potatoes may be fed to dairy cattle with excellent return, says R. H. Ruffner, head of the animal husbandry department at State College. Both the tubers and the vines make a good, palatable feed which will produce milk and butter of high quality. But livestock men can afford to feed only cull potatoes or those which cannot be marketed for hu man consumption at a fairly good price, Ruffner pointed out. Sweet potatoes contain abou^ one fourth the total feed value of an equal weight of corn. Consequent ly, dairymen cannot afford to al low more than one-fourth the price of corn for the sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes may be fed cows in place of corn silage. Since there are 25 pounds of digestible nutrients in 100 pounds of potatoes, while an equal weight of silage contains only 17 pounds, the cows will not need as much potato feed as silage. When sweet potatoes are fed, the cows should also get eight to ten pounds of legume hay^to balance the ration, as potatoes consist mostly of starch and sugar, Ruffner stat ed. From 25 to 3D pounds of potatoes a day may be fed the average cow, tut U ill advisable to feed only five fit'ten' pounds a'llay at the start. The quantity may be \ increased gradually as the cows learn to eat the roots. The sweet potato vines may be grazed off by the cows, or they may be pulled and fed in the barn. Each cow can consume from 30 to 40 pounds of vines a day. Do not al low them to eat more than this a mount, Ruffner added. USED CAR SALE!

Destroy Stalks To Check Boll Weevil North Carolina cotton growers arc beijng urged to wage a stiff bat tle against boll weevils this (all to prevent heavy infestations of the crop next year. So widespread were the ijnfesta lions this season that many of the weevils will survive the winter un-i less they are destroyed in the fall, said C. 11. Bran no n, extension en tnmnlogiet at State College. As soon as the cotton has been picked, he said, the growers should cut down all the stalks and plow them under. Cutting the stalks deprives the weevils of their food,a nd plowing the stalks under will kill weevils which might otherwise survive the winter. If the stalks are left to grow un til frost, the weevils will anyroacn winter in a healthy, vigorous con dition, Brannon added, and they will be well able to withstand the cold weather. An ounce of prevention is worth several pounds of cure, he declar ed, and the destruction of boll weevils in fall and winter is one of the best control methods known. Furthermore, he added, the quick er that the stalks can be cut and plowed under, the better is the chance of destroying most of the weevils. Should Exercise Care In Purchase of Pigs In 1935 Farmers are urged to be extra careful in buying pigs this year. Disease outbreaks are becoming frequent in somear eas Every time a truck load of diseased pigs is mov ed, it may lead to another outbreak of cholera or other disease. Should Fertilize Winter Crops Planted tor Hay In many Mctioni the custom is to sow (all crops after corn, tobacco or cotton without fertilization on the supposition that there is enough fertilizer left from the spring ap plication to grow another crop. It is true that sgpne of the fertilizer is still in the soil but except on very fertile soil, some fertilizer should be applied for the fall crops. For Coastal Plain soils 400 pounds of an 8-4-4 mixture should be applied. Tliis may be supplemented with a top dressing of from 50 to 109 pounds of nitrate of soda or sul phate of ammonia next March 1. October 1 Best Time to Cut Lespedeza Crop For Seed The best time to cut lespedeza for seed of the Korean variety is about the first of October, and the other varieties just after the first hard frost. After being left in the barn for a few weeks the Korean seed is threshed on a grain separator. Seed from the other varieties are harvest td with a seed pan attached to the cutter bar of a mowing machine. Plans for building a seed pan may be secured free by writing to the Agricultural Editor, State College, Raleigh, N. C.
